Today's Roundup
By MALCOLM EPLEY
1 A FEW brief ones today about the Klamath
water diversion, and we'll let that matter
rest for a while. Folks hereabouts are probably
getting a little weary of the subject, important
as it is. From what developed i3"!
at yesterdays nearing, tv up- w
' i .1 m i 1 n T - I
pears mat uieie win ub -iu,j,b iJ
time to talk about it later on. fp-l
We got the definite impres-
lon that despite the consider
able amount of technical work
done by the engineers, there is
still a lot they are not sure of
about this whole scheme.
Klamath interests not only in
jected some important facts
calling for nossible revisions.
but it was divulged that the EPLEY
fish and wildlife service may need FIVE YEARS
to look into the fish and game angle of the
proposal. Fish and wildlife people, in fact,
geemed to know startlingly little about it.
The engineers indicated they would not want
to wait five years but they probably will not
get it done in August, the tentative date for
finishing the report.
Three Schemes
IT should be emphasized that the engineers
suggested three possible schemes. No. 1 is
the upper Klamath diversion that has raised the
holler in this neck of the woods.
No. 2 would provide for storage on Sprague
river, like No. 1, but would not call for di
version. There might be objection to details, etc.,
in this area, but some plan with added reservoir
capacity somewhere, is definitely in line if we
are going to proceed with maximum agricultural
development.
No. 3 calls for diversion from the Trinity
river, in the lower end of the basin. Klamath
people will have to look further into that one.
Trinity diversion might also be found objection
able here.
Hey,
f, There's a War On!
ONE sidelight of interest is the fact that the
engineers are doing all of this in the midst
of a war. Most of us had the idea engineers
were pretty much in demand for direct war
effort activities. Engineering staffs over the
country have been depleted, yet here the army
engineers are making an exhaustive study that
must require a tremendous amount of time.
Not just their time, either.- It has used up a
vast amount of time and energy from other
people who are forced to work on the tiling,
one way or another, in response to the engi
neers' request for pertinent public opinion and
independent information. A lot of Klamath peo
ple we know all of them busy people in essen
tial work have had to put in hours and hours
in advance of this hearing.
And there is one more point. Many of the
people who would be affected by any .radical
project are not here at this time. They are away
fighting the war. They cannot be heard.
We haven't a thing against the engineers per
sonally, but we think somebody along the line
had a peculiar idea of timing.
News Behind the News
By PAUL MALLON
WASHINGTON, Feb. 21 The crux of Li
vadia's vision of the postwar world lies
in the arrangement proposed for handling
future war makers.
While Mr. Roosevelt is supposed to have
written this compromise (Byrnes said), it stands
upon the Russian position, assumed at Dum
barton Oaks with such fervor then as to cause
disruption of their earlier conference without
final agreement.
Not until the carefully chosen words of the
text are made public can the chances of future
wars be conclusively assayed. But the un
official explanations of it (from senators and
officials) all say Russia won her point, and
indicate it was done in this way:
The Big Five can take up any important case
of future threatened war by a majority vote,
but steps to prevent that war can be taken
or.lv by unanimous vote.
Now any important move toward the next
war could only involve one of the Big Five,
because no other nation will have any arms
left when this one is over. And any of the
Big Five could veto united action.
What would this mean? Primarily it would
mean that the post war peace organisation
could prevent war by anyone except the Big
Five.
If Russia, the United SUtes, Britain, China
or France, wanted to go to war against any
nation, or against each other, tne peace deal
would be off and it would be every nation
for itself.
If Russia vetoed united action, we would
have to make up our minds what we would
dp. fight or appease, ally with Britain or China,
if they chose, or what?
e e a
Not Very Powerful
THIS is not a very powerful preventative of
future wars. In practical application, it
would only prevent wars among smaller nations
Bolivia and Paraguay, possibly, but not Russia
and Italy.
It would not possibly stop any aggression by
anv member of the Big Five. To do that, the
other nations would have to get together on the
outside, and fight for Italy against Russia.
This then is only a peace agreement, until the
first important threat to peace comes up, and
then the deal is off, and we will see what
happens.
What does this arrangement mean In the
fundamental conflict of idealogies between Rus
sian totalitarianism and Anglo-American capital
istic democracy which already has become the
dominant factor of post war world diplomacy?
It does nothing to resolve that conflict, leaves
everything to the future.
I would say It throws that question Into the
field of constant debate and negotiation. There
are some American officials who believe Russia
will be sincere in seeking full and free elections
of the democratic kind in post war nations;
others who think her totalitarian advocates will
merely use elections for the gaining of dicta
torial controls (Hitler did in democratic Ger
many.) We shall see. -
Meanwhile there is no justification in this
settlement for American disarmament in view of
the necessity of protecting our interests against
vetoes.
e e e e
Popular Result
TODAY this conference result Is very popular.
It would be absurd to try to guess what
our people will think of it in the future. Re
member Munich? That appeasement of Hitler
by which he got what he wanted in Czecho
slovakia was popular immediately after its an
nouncement. Only later were men hounded into oblivion
and smeared with labels of fascism for having
approved that Chamberlain pact which he said
meant "peace in our time." (Don't look at me,
as I bitterly opposed it from the beginning,
being against Hitler from the very moment he
challenged democracy with his totalitarian phil
osophy in Mein Kempf and long before he came
into any power. I wrote the French should
have killed him when he moved into the
Rhineland.) The Sunday after the Munich settle
ment, however, the New York Times (which
also said a good word for Munich) reported:
"Reassured by the sharp turn of affairs to
ward peace, the president prepared to leave for
Hyde Park."
Mr. Roosevelt also (Sept. 30) asked the people
to join with him and his family Sunday in
prayer for continued peace of the world. State
Secretary Hull said:
"As to immediate peace results, it is unneces
sary to say that they afforded a universal
sense of relief."
Attributed to FDR
THE famed British correspondent, Sir Wilmott
Lewis, in a speech, went further and at
tributed the Munich settlement to Mr. Roosevelt
saying:
"The determining factor in deflecting the
current of events in the direction of peace in
the present European crisis was the intervention
of President Roosevelt at the last moment."
Mr. Roosevelt publicly praised the great work
of all his ambassadors in the matter (his leading
ambassador in that matter was Joseph P. Ken
nedy who has been pilloried and left public
office because our fanatics called him a Munich
appeaser.)
I did not look up this record on Munich in
criticism of anyone, but to illustrate that the
immediate reaction to international settlements
does not always represent the long rar.ge con
victions of the people.

Ship Captain Remains on
Job Despite Appendicitis
PORTLAND, Ore., Feb. 21 UP)
A ship captain who ignored a
ruptured appendix to remain on
the job today received a meri
torious service citation signed
by Lt. Gen. Brehon Somervell.
Capt. John A. Higgins, 57, Se
attle, was rushing through a
mine cable laying task in the
North Atlantic early in the war.
Appendicitis hit. He was warned
that Jack of quick medical atten
tion might mean death.
"I'll chance it," said Higgins.
"We've got a mighty important
job at hand." He stayed, giving
directions first from the
bridge, finally from bed till
the mine cable was laid.
Eleven days later he reached
a surgeon and found that gan
grene had set it. Ever since, he
has walked with a limp.
Higgins, commander of a con
crete ship here for training
stevedors of the transportation
corps, received his citation at
the Portland sub-port of em
barkation today.
