SUBSCRIPTION BATES: - under met March & 1BTB JJembw, Associated Presa Hmbcr Audit Bureau Circulation ; EPLEY Today's Roundup By MALCOLM EPLEY JUSTICE department assumption of control of the Tulelake evacuee center, mentioned oc casionally as a prospect, is not likely to occur in the immediate future. That, at any rate, is the statement oi union myer, chief of WRA, who paid the colony a visit a few days ago and indicated that WRA wants to hang on there, at least un til the first of the year. Myer told the colonists, through block managers, that "we have no plans to make any change immediately in the administration" of the camp. There was a hint of a warn ing in his comments, however. Jl, j . ir-nist that "unless we can work things out together, I may not be ible to control what will be done. It might be that some one else would take over sooner than I would recommend." ...... That "some one else" would be the Justice de partment. Justice department and WRA nave arTagreement that justice will take over what ever is left after WRA passes out of the picture. Mver s visit has not yet been reported through the regular channels from WRA at Tule but is publicized in the Newell Star, camp paper. His repeated hints of the need for "working to gether" indicate that he has some concern that not all colonists will be willing to do so, and indeed there have been recent reports indicating a new "tenseness" in the situation down there. In his message, Myer mentioned "much noise between 5:30 and 7 o'clock in the morning. He said he had no objection to religious ceremony, but that he objects to the noise which he be lieves is affecting the lives of people in the colony "adversely." He did not elaborate on the noise, but there have been reports of early morning marching and other colonist activity that has aroused some concern. He urged upon the colonists the necessity for making up their minds about what they want to do remain in America, or go to Japan. Tule lake, he said, should be a place where people can make up their minds without pressure from anybody. . . . Friendly DIPLOMATIC CHARLEY STARK, manager , of the chamber -of commerce, wrote a . pleasant letter to C. Hartley Grattan, the Harp er's writer who mentioned "dilapidation without antiquity" in connection with Klamath Falls. Charley invited Grattan to come back and visit us. I The chamber manager has a friendly letter from Grattan, whose address is 8 White Hall Road, Tuckahoe 7, N. Y. "Nothing," said Grat tan, "would give me greater pleasure than to make a real visit to Klamath Falls and vicinity. I am sure that there is much to be seen that would be of profit to me. May I say that I keenly appreciate the spirit of your letter . It alone would Induce me to revisit Klamath Falls sometimes, were I able to find no more pressing reason." . .; We are sure Grattan, on a longer visit, would get the real story at Klamath Falls he missed on his ill-fated first visit. . . Hikers MARINES from the Barracks have set Klam- " ath country hiking records, in man miles, that most certainly are unequaled in the history of white settlement in this area. We do not have exact figures, but the man miles of hiking in the tolerance tests at the Barracks must run close to 200,000. We have an example in the seven-day tests which are now underway, with 641 marines participating. By the time these marines have finished the test, they will have hiked 60 miles each,-up and down hill and mountain. That is a total of 38,460 man miles. Some 2500 marines have left the Barracks after duty here that, in most cases, has included similar tolerance tests. The marines know a lot about the rugged terrain in this vicinity. ' SIDE GLANCES News Behind ihe News Br PAUL MALLON SAN FRANCISCO, April 24 Russia's excuse for at first deciding to send an inferior rank ing diplomat to this world conference was never made public, but it was passed privately and officially to Mr. Roosevelt and State Secretary Stettinius. The Kremlin pointed out to them that Mol otov was not only the foreign minister in the soviet setup but the second roan of the Stalin government. Stalin well knew the conference probably would last a couple of months instead of the advertised four or five weeks, and he said he could not spare Molotov from his side for so long a period just at the critical time of victory in Europe, and because his government is desperately short-handed on diplomats. When he took this position, Churchill also assumed it and said he could not spare his Foreign Minister Eden either. Now it has been assumed Mr. Truman caused Stalin and Churchill to change their minds later about the necessity of sending their top-ranking men to this meeting. This is not true. . Credits Roosevelt ACTUALLY, Mr. Roosevelt got Churchill to change before his death, or his State Sec retary Stettinius did. Several days before Eden:s coming was made known, Churchill had been persuaded to send him. No announcement ' was made, however, and, Eden came over to the funeral and proceeded to San Francisco as if he had expected to come all along. Announcements on the matter were smothered and deliberately made obscure in or der that the change not be conspicuous. After Mr. Roosevelt's death, Stettinius and Truman decided to send a personal message to j HiuiuwTt auu . i ... . . -J".,.o'- - - may well have reasoned the changes forecast by Mr. Roosevelt's death and the coming of Mr. Truman might well justify the long sacrifice of his right-hand man in order to establish fresh contacts. Now I have learned on unquestionable author ity that. Stalin did not present in this case any position against the. small nations which are now being assembled in full here for the first time in post-war planning. Indeed, I am told, that in none of the previous American negotia tions with Russia, has she offered such a course as representing officially her policy. Neither has Churchill gone that far. At the same time, both, have said by every action, if not by word, that they expect the big three to run the world. This attitude has not startled our principals apparently. The big three (note well this is not the big five, but only Russia, Britain and the United States) controls not only the. military but the industrial power of the post-war world. Russian emphasis has been on this point in all dealings, although she has presented no concrete pro position on it. Her idea is that no matter what is done other wise, the big three necessarily must control any way. She seems to say: ' "We have the power and we will use it in the interests of the small nations; no assumption of position in the matter is necessary." Pursue Freedom OUR principals have been inclined to accept this as true, yet in the case of Poland, the Balkans, and indeed every small nation, we have pursued the cause of democratic freedom for small nations in contrast to Russian action in clined to fold them under her wing. At any rate, I can report that this is the way officialdom, assembling for the conference Wed nesday, looks at these matters which have been disturbing " the public and confusing public opinion and establishing an apparent cleavage between the Anglo-Russian and American posi tions. , . I can report further that American official dom has seen no evidence that the British have been drawn any closer to the Russian ideas of under-the-wing liberty for small nations in re cent months. - Although news developments (Eden's initial withdrawal,' etc.) have hinted of closer contacts between Churchill and Stalin, it's true the Brit ish position on the foremost case in point, Poland, has supported our viewpoint against the Russian. . What I have related is not my viewpoint, but the inner diplomatic workings leading up to this conference. I think they augur better for the success of the meeting, as far as relations be tween Britain, Russia and the United States are concerned, than do the surface events on the front pages the last month which have shown symptoms of the use of pressure politics. Remember, however, diplomacy never talks as crudely as it acts. - "Rcgnrdlcss of the food shortage nnd evcrytliiiifi. don't you dare repeat what you just said in front of the chil dren and those neighbors may count ihcir chickens . every evening anyhow!"
