A juick correct: an was , , mate tooay. but a lot of peo- j v'.. .. pie got a thrill thst almost r I i i suited a celebration. J -V; 1 The K-.c:jjnt sent us into , ; "! C.i the tiiy u-ts o; t.-.e t.vi.u.;g !. : v, 'J 10 "TT- of 3jj?gbi herclri ior Xovi:.itsr, 1918 We UrceJ to ."ovei'ser -7, "Nation Viild Over Coming Peace." was the headline the Herald that day. The norv V2s obviously written by some o.e wuo wasn't qu.te EPLEV sure tee ana-stice had cn signed, but was influenced by the local jollification that hed started on the basis of an erroneous repo.t by : - caited Press. He said the rumor was "ptemaf.re to some extent," ana that there was "no oicitl sub stantiation of the rumor." The he-iid was an Associated Press paper, and the cautious old AP hadn't reported the armistice that people were beginning to celebrate. Next day, November 8, the Herald headline read: "Hun Plea for Quarter Beiore Foch." There was a story on Page 1 that day stating that the celebration of peace "is too previous." "It was generally realized here that the armistice had not been signed but the people celebrated the event which was hourly ex pected,'' said the Herald. Local folks started bonfires that they kept going even after they learned they had been misled by false reports. On November 10, the banner line read: "Kaiser Abdicates." " On November 11, five-inch type announced: "WAR IS OVER." Said the Herald writer, now sure of himself: "The greatest conflict in history has come to an end. and autocracy with its despotism and oppression are to be banished from the face of the earth. "The German war lords, who were not con tented to grind down those within their own realm, but thirsted to put the whole globe underneath their bonds of slavery, have been throned so thoroughly that they nave lost the support of their own vassals, and are now fugitives skeltering in every direction. "Right has at last prevailed over might," Houses and Sewers rE next housing project to be built here for navy personnel, on a site adjoining that on lAashourn way where 80 units are now nearing completion, will cost the government more than baK a million dollars. It will include 153 units, some of them to be built in two stories. They will be for navy and marine families, only. ( Klamath Falls will probably get a valuable sewer development out of this project. Applica tion has been made for a trunk line sewer and pumping plant to serve the project, which will be a part of the Klamath sanitary sewer sys tem. This will cost more than $100,000, and will facilitate development of sanitary sewers for that section of the city and suburbs which may later come into the city limits. We've recently seen several letters, to the editor and otherwise, In which local people take pokes at other local people. It looks as if local hot-beads are about to pick up the clubs they dropped on December 7, 1041, and start beating each other again. Spring is here, all right. Last night the first spooners were driving around on the tops of the hills east of town. C. C. Chapman, editor of the Oregon Voter who was on hand throughout the legislative session, agrees with us that there are too many women in the way on the floors of the two houses. Legislators seeking to confer with each other had to crawl over women's legs or tall: across their laps, he said. By PAVTi.

Lo we? Gr do our people want to make Italy a democracy like us, without a dictator, wl. tout a one-patty totalitarian system? Well, what has the pope done a'out that? He issued a Christmas message in firm pene trating language that the Issue everywhere lies between those authoritarians who look upon people as "the masses," to be led, and those who believe in the people as individuals, with individual human souls. He was plainly hitting at fascism and com munism. Both are dictatorships which t;-o;-t the people as masses to be governed, without individual rights, but only with mass-r.ghts, under a singleheaded dictatorship telling them what to do. The Individual right of the people to tell the government what to do in their Interests is what we believe in. It is the fundamental foundation of democracy, any kind of democ racy. The pope then has clearly taken the democratic side. But this is a protectant country, at least, the large majority of its people are not Catholics. They might read the Russian attack on the Vatican and may not have read that the Vatican has been championing the democratic side. They can be easily misled. Fertile Field IT seems to me the smart soviet propagandists have discovered the fertility of the religious field in this country for their political stratc gems, in their political dealings with the Vatican. Our people do not understand that if Stalin reached an accord with the Vatican, the "war and the working class" would be singing the pope's praises tomorrow, with no more factual ground for that than for its cur rent criticism. , The Lippman case is In every way similar. Mr. Lippman issued a denial, just as the Vatican did in its case. He said that if Pravda had read and understood his book, it would know he was against Cordon sanitaires and that he proposed to do away with them. There was no more truth in this accusation than that the Vatican was pro-fascist. But both the attacks and denials had to be carried in our press under our free democratic system, to let the people make their choice, although not in Russia. How were our people to know who was telling the truth? To anyone who knows Lippman or his writ ings, the implication that he was "worried about the Germans" after the war was absurd. But how about the great majority which does not know? How are we to deal with such matters in the brave new world? I will attempt to pursue the American propa ganda position in an analysis of the third case the portrayal of the Russian constitution as inspired by Washington, Jefferson and Lincoln tomorrow.
