Today's Roundup ALLIED vxtvVT n eTV?. s S"1' widely predict irny b come In such pie.-jwl fshn that U wind is pretty well gone imm v-n day before it arrive. Locally, we suspect, there will be little of the kind of celebrating that has caused concern in those quarters where there is al ways a lot of worrying for fear the American people won't behave properly in some situation. For all Intents and purposes, V-E day is already here. Some formal announcement may come tomorrow, or in a few EPLEY days, that will mark an official milestone In history, but the battle of Europe is now prac tically over. There can't be the kind of thing that happened on November 11. 1918. when an armistice came with Allied troops still outside German borders. The surprise factor is gone entirely, this time. Some local procedures were properly set up several months ago to be followed in the event of a V-E day announcement. From the com ments we have heard, however, we would say that in general, Klamath people look upon the war as a global affair that isn't going to be over until the Japs are licked. That idea will probably temper European victory observance here. ' , . . Muskrat Menace THE muskrat menace to Irrigation structures in the Klamath area is dramatically demon strated in the rejection of claims made by local property holders in connection with the May, 1944, canal break and flood. Investigators for the reclamation bureau re ported the probability that it was a muskrat, boring through the canal bank, which was re sponsible for the break. Evidences pointed in that direction, they said, although no final con clusion was possible. Inasmuch as the govern ment says it cannot control muskrat-, and gov ernment employes were cleared of any evi dence of negligence, the claims were disallowed. ., The big break in May, 1944, was only one of many cases in which muskrats have been responsible for damage in this area. Usually, the damage has been to agricultural crops. Farmers hate muskrats and think that every thing possible should be done to eliminate them. City and suburban folks may now under stand that feeling. ' Tut, Tut, Bill EDITOR BILL BAILEY of the Siskiyou News reports that a snow flurry on the Weed Klamath Falls highway caused a car to run off the road and down a bank. .On the same day, he says, fine weather prevailed on the Pacific highway. His conclusion is that this shows a good reason why the Pacific should get the Inter regional designation between Weed and Eugene. Tut, tut. Bill. You aren't up to your usual good reasoning on that one. One could dig back into the news files and find innumerable Instances where there were accidents on the Pacific highway, caused by fog or rain, when the sun was shining brightly along the Weed Eugene route through Klamath. Sunshine favors the Klamath route. Reno And Klamath - FRIENDLY relationships between Klamath Falls and Reno were strengthened, this week as a result of a visit by several chamber of commerce representatives from here to the Nevada metropolis. The meeting was called primarily to discuss roads, and the Reno cham ber was represented by a large delegation right fn the middle of a busy business afternoon.. Klamath and Reno are major points on a po tentially great inland traff'C route between Portland and Seattle, on the north, and Los Angeles and San Diego on the south. War's end will bring a heavy Increase in the use of this route, and that must be accompanied by additional construction. But it is already a cood route, and it is possible to travel between here and Reno at less than six hours in peace time speeds. Klamath people with maps of the western states would do well to get them out and look over this route. It is the direct route between the hie metropolitan areas north and south, ex cept for San Francisco. tHow many know that Reno is actually west oi uos Angeiesr) -Reno and Klamath have many common Inter ests aixl we should get to know our Nevada neighbor better. The War Today Br D.WITT MacKENZIE Associated Press War Analyst Vr DAY, despite the fact that it is arriving t as an anti-climax, still represents one of the most important moments in the lives of millions of folk. It means the end of casualties which have continued even in the closing stages of hostil ities. It brings countless thousands of homes closer to the glad time when their boys will come back. V-E day indeed means great thanksgiving and rejoicing and who would try to dampen that? The consensus of America seems to be, how ever," that the occasion shouldn't be one of un restricted celebration, because of the unfinished tasks before us. ... Mistaken Idea IT'S well that we recognize our work Isn't done, but there seems to be a tendency to underestimate its extent. To many people, the sole remaining job is that of completing the defeat of Japan already so handsomely begun and that's a mistaken idea which should be put right. V-E day in the last war Armistice day did indeed signal the end of the world conflict. But this second World war is a catastrophe of an entirely different calibre. The end of the fighting in Europe, and the ending in due course of the Pacific warfare, have ceased to mean finalities but will present merely com pleted incidents in the general upheaval which is ushering in a new era for mankind. Europe is torn by an unprecedented destruc - tion of human life and property. Its economic ' structure has been shattered. Much of it is suffering real hunger. Not Policeman THE whole set-up of balance of power as we knew it has been knocked into a cocked hat. Germany and Italy have disappeared as great powers. France is just beginning to re cover. Russia is emerging as the dominant power of the eastern hemisphere. Britain has ceased to be the policeman of Europe. - - These volcanic changes have produced condi tions which are altering the political complex ion of much of the continent. Country after country, in its effort to find some remedy for its ills, is clutching at straws in endeavoring to establish a government which will meet the new situation. The swing is heavily to the left, and much of it is communistic. In some countries this search has been accompanied by violence. Thus when we have V-E day behind us we must plunge immediately into an even greater work than winning the war and that will be the winning of the peace. We. shall have to " maintain order under conditions which invite trouble. . We must help rehabilitate a Europe which is struggling with hunger and other pri vations, while its political houses are rocking. SIDE GLANCES wMW?rimHr"ci.MC T,rnitaNT,n, "It wasn't his fault he broke tried to do a trapeze act in down the street hadn't his nrm! He woultln t hnvc .1. i ii.-i ill.. i ine oiu tree u mm sinv gin been egging him on t ' From Other Editors WHICH ROUTE? (Bend Bulletin) It was reported in the news the other day that Pacific high way interests were meeting to plan for promoting the selection of that road as the north-south inter-regional route in Oregon. Highway Commissioner Schaupp was said to be urging the Pa-cific-Willamette-The Dalles Cal. ifornia route. Each route, as a matter of course, is bound to have its proponents. The high way commission is undoubtedly being bombarded with argu mentsfrom each side. The Pacific highway from Portland to Eugene and Goshen is certain of selection. The ques tion will be over the line south from the latter point. Taking into account the historical-background, it seems to us that the Willamette route should have the call. Onlv bv cepting the words of the law un- oer wmch the choice will be made as mandatory rather than of an advisory nature, can an sr. gument for the Pacific (south of uosnen) rather than the Willam ette be made. Time was when the Pacific was accepted as the primary route south from Eugene. In line with that acceptance heavy allo cations of funds were made to improve conditions on one of the more serious bottle necks the SiskLvou erades south of Ash-1 contemplated that as the main land. Had this improvement been I thoroughfare to and from Cali- followed at once with expend!-J tures north of Grants Pass to- (. . - question would not be pre- Red Ryder sented. That, however, was not the case. Instead, the very heavy ne construction on the Willam ett' was begun and with the passage of the years we have seen that route opened and ex tensive improvements completed or planned both north and south of Klamath Falls and between Goshen and Oakridge where the one-time new Willamette work beg.-n. It is true, of course, that there has also been (in more recent years) other bottle neck elimina tion on the Pacific but the com mission program, entered upon soon after the present chief en gineer was selected, has been for the development of the Willam ette :s the main artery into Cal ifornia. That is an undeniable and inescapable fact. The logic, aeeorrf'rtslv. im all for the selection of the Willam ette route and for carrvinff it to its completion under the new inter-regional plan. The economics of the situation also call for that selection. To select for improvement the route through Klamath Falls would give opportunity to reach the same points of importance as would be reached by the Pa cific hiehwav. In aririltlnn tho Klamath -route would afford a connection across to eastern Cal ifornia points and to Nevada not gossiDie as conveniently trom U. 3. iO. tftf. Eugene Is undoubtedly in fn vor of the Willnmeflo rnnl Tti highway leaders have always fornia. Klamath, of course, wants that route chosen. This also should be the case in central Oregon and, as the record clearly shows, it is the route favored by past commissions and by the engineers. Single Arrest Made For Traffic Violation Only one traffic arrest was made yesterday by city police. Frank R. Meads, 712 Main, post ed $5 bail for violation of the basic rule.

But Ehud answers that he will not die, for he sow his father slay a lamb and put its blood on the doorpost and he knows he will bo -safe under the blood. Right you are Ehud, for see ing the blood the angel of death will pass over your house. And so the angel of death did und while in all Egypt, that night. tne tirst-norn was slain, yci not a Hebrew was taken. For God had said: "When I see the blood, I will pass over you and the I plague shall not bo upon you I to destroy you. when I smile the land of Egypt." From that night ' the blood of the slain lamb had more meaning for the Hebrews. The blood told them their sins were covered over. In tho fulness of time, God himself offered up a Lamb his Son, our Lord, Jesus Christ. "Behold the Lumb of God that takcth awav the sin of the world." TAKETH AWAY the sin of the Hebrews who believed and takcth away ours also as we have heart belief that Christ's blood cancels out our sins. The blood of Jesus Christ, his Son, cleanseth from all sin." BIBLE. The door of blessing Is now open. With sins put out of sight, God waits to pour In the new lite with Its cheer, Joy and hope.
