Aaodaud mm Member Audit Bureau Circulatiotl EPLEY Today's Roundup By MALCOLM EPLEY WORLD events of such vast significance are occurring Just now that it may seem, at first blush, to be dabbling in trivialities to turn n- fhnnr-hts for a moment today to local com munity affairs on the dm an niversary of the Klamath county chamber of commerce. But our town and our area are a tiny bit of that event shaken world. It is here that we find our chief opportunity for constructive public effort. What we do to make this a progressive, wholesome, eco nomically sound community is our little but real contribution toward those same things in the state, the nation and the world. So we need not apologize for permitting local affairs to share our thoughts with the big na tional and international news of the day. Duty To Service People AE have, here at home, a duty to perform VV for the 4000 men and women who have gone from here into the service of the country in war. A majority of these boys and girls in tend to return to this area, to find employment, or to establish- businesses, or to farm, or to work in the professions, and to live out their lives in what they hope will be wholesome, happy and prosperous surroundings. . They are not here now, and they depend upon us to keep the field fertile for their re turn. We are negligent in our duty to them if we do not do our level best to promote the interests of our community in every way. - There are many channels through which the Interests of the community are served, including church, fraternal, -service and civic organiza tions. The general organization that represents the city, county and adjacent areas in many fields is the chamber of commerce. It is non sectarian, non-political and unofficial. It is the means by which citizens can bring their united efforts to bear on many problems and projects affecting the local welfare. Plenty To Do WIHTUALLY every community that gets ahead . Y winds up with a chamber of commerce or similar organization. Klamath's chamber, now 25 years old, was preceded by. a number of similar organizations. The files "of the papers back into the last century tell about their activi ties. We do not doubt that if Klamath did not now have a chamber of commerce, it would find itself so badly in need of the manifold services performed by this organization that it would get busy ana organize one. We will not attempt here -to- list the major matters that are receiving the attention of the chamber of commerce now, or lie ahead for the coming year. They are discussed frequently in this column, because they are all matters of general interest, affecting the welfare of nearly everyone. The Klamath chamber, with the largest membership in its history indicating unprecedented citizen interest and support, must be better able than ever to meet the chal lenge of a critical year ahead.-' News Behind the News By PAUL MALLON SAN FRANCISCO, Anril 30 The words and faces of the four leaders of the new world Stettinlus, Molotov, Eden and Soong are al most as familiar to you as are the leaders who are absent, Truman, Chiang-Kai-Shek, Churchill and Stalin. Most people in this country could identify their voices on the radio without intro ductions. Yet meeting them close-up and seeing them in front of you in action you get deeper impressions. . , Here is Molotov, the second man of Russia, perhaps the most interesting figure of the con ference. His clothing and general appearance cast out the impression that he is a man of business nothing else a man so deeply im mersed In his sole ideal he had no time for any other single thought outside of his business purpose. He can be friendly in address and ap proach. But there is an unfathomable depth of intensity in everything he does or says, a re strained intensity not always apparent, yet ever present in the background. Out of his mouth to us Americans come strange words, and as we hear them we think he must be saying some tiling of grave importance, yet when the trans lators disclose his meanings we find" he has (in the instance I have in mind) recounted largely the well-known factual history of the war. Only in one sentence then did he come out with full vocal manifestation of the depth of feeling he carries, and that was when he mentioned the red army and Stalin. The translator generally does not disclose that his words are particularly scholarly or any semblance of a picturesque literary style such as Churchills fluent dramat ism, for instance. To my eye, he seems a man of contrasts whoe real "personality is unfathomably deep within him. He shows no weaknesses unless his own depth of intensity is a weakness in the ex treme to which he sometimes carries it in ac tion. His cold and calculating interior is bal anced by a certain desire to break into levity at times and a certain warmth of cordiality. Contrastingly, also he wears, as you have seen, clothes which could have been cut by Fifth Avenue tailor, yet he walks lumberlngly around in them at times as if he were Santa Claus (the similarity begins and ends with the gait.) Here is a bard man to deal with. He 'leaves you with the feeling you never know his thor ough purposes or him. The Impeccable Eden THE Briton, Anthony Eden, spells Eton . . . cricket, playing fields, all that you know. From his impeccable mustache down to his spats, he is practically a picture of British tra dition (the tall slender part of it, Churchill be ing the roly-poly half.) Above his mustache, he is foreign office, the old League of Nations school tie. He is more experienced in that subject of the league and how things were done at Geneva than any of the top quartet. In speaking he radiates the parliamentary manner, the straight forward style of speech used by ministers there. You will not realize until he has concluded and you start to analyze his words carefully, that he has carefully reserved behind a beautifully drawn curved line what he did not want to gay. I think the primary quality of all British prime or second ministers is that they know just the hairline to which frankness may be carried safely, and Eden knows where that line is. I would not mind dealing with him, although I would like to have a couple of lawyer around to look things over or a foreign office back home as he has. Underestimated STETTTNIUS seem to me in manner and purpose to be what a young chairman of the board of the U. S. Steel corporation should be. I think he has been widely underestimated by those who have followed only his brief poli tical career. He has, the direct business ap proach. His dominating quality I think is earn estness. In that tone executive earnestness he handled the beginnings of the conference as if it were a meeting of the board. No one else spoke except upon his invitation. There was no prayer, except silent ones for Mr. Roosevelt. Frequently he gets a determined look upon his face as. if he thought he was Stalin in a bad mood. The strain of preserving this conference so far through the negotiations leading up to it and here seem to me naturally to have had an effect upon him somewhat. He is a much shrewder man than you may think from his pictures or his words. T. V. Soong, the Chinese leader, is a young business man also, neat, - and polished in de meanor as well as utterance. I do not think he could be easily swayed. He speaks good Ameri can, as contrasted with English (no broad A's or British words) and he seems to me to have a financial type of mind. These are all young men of the new world whose actions are to make the course of the world, great contrasts all with the professorial Wilson, shrewd Clemenceau and the bargaining politico Lloyd George yet acting not without precise direction from the absentees who sit at the top desks in Washington, Moscow, London and Chungking.

During the second week of the brake-check program being conducted by Klamath Falls po lice, 10 more cars have been checked and four failed to meet requirements, according to Orville Hamilton, acting chief of police. In addition, motorists whose brakes barely met the check requirements were urged to have their brakes tested at re pair shops and adjusted or re paired if necessary. The brake-check being con ducted here is part of a national program. A similar check used in Michigan last year produced amazing results. More than 10 per cent of all cars tested were found to have inadequate brakes.

(To tho Editor) It Is the honest opinion of the writer that with all the grief and sorrow that has entered somo of our local homes, caused by conditions of today, that hcurtaehes of this type should be sufficient. There is definitely an element of "sun- fiosed to be humans" that be ieve it should be carried on in a wider scale, that is to the point where our very young children should be broken hearted along with tho grown ups. . Strange as It may seem, wc have within our midft a savage type of people who dclibcrotely take it upon themselves to shoot and kill our very best friend, "the ddg." Wednesday evening at 9:30 p. m., I was a witness to the snooting, "from a speeding car," of a thoroughbred Irish Setter.
