He represents here, on this day of European victory, an ot ine men ana women of the armed services who have personally borne the brunt of this most terrible war in history. Many things contributed, but we still could not win vic tory without the superior courage, intelligence and abil ity of American fighting men. Many have given their lives, many are disabled, and the others are carrying on in a EPLEY war that is far from con cluded. Our fighting forces must stay-in there pitching; so must the nation behind them. That's the best theme we know of for V-E Day. e a .e Not Over Yet AWARENESS of the conflict ahead, and the sobering Influence of that realization, are most certainly felt in Klamath Falls. On this very day of European victory, orders were received here for transfer of 18 officers from' the Marine Barracks for overseas duty! Ask those men if the war is over? The Klamath military installations are prim arily concerned with the Pacific war. Our job of civilian cooperation with them must be kept at maximum level. .The tools of war must flow without interrup tion to the men who fight the war that con tinues. Each individual, however small his part in the war effort, must continue to do it well. The purposes of the war bond program con tinue unchanged, and bond purchases should rise in celebration of the successful completion of one phase of the war. . i. This Is It 3:, -i; : . SOME confusion : occurred over the-question as to whether' this Monday "was officially V-E Day. Militarily, it appears conclusively, the Euro pean war was over today. That seems to us to be the time for observance of the' event." The politicians and the diplomats, are worry ing about 'getting but , an . official announce ment, simultaneously in three capitals. Thafs just so much', formality, of course. The real story is out ' ' ';'"-" Inasmuch as observance occurred today. It would seem that , whatever the. formalities may be fqr tomorrow or some succeeding day, V-E Day . observance on Monday took care of the celebrating. 'i " - . . 1 -- ' Tragedy A TERRIBLE tragedy occurred In .the woods near Bly Saturday, snuffing out the lives of a .woman and five -children.' They found an object in the woods. When they gathered around to investigate, it blew up and killed them all.' The lesson is plain.. Anything unusual found In the open should not be -touched. It should be reported to the authorities. News Behind ihe News Br PAUL MALLON SAN FRANCISCO, May 7 The nine-point program of Dumbarton Oaks amendments adopted by the American delegation represented quite a personal victory for Senator Vandcn berg. It was the Michigan republican who first demanded the main points such as inclusion ot the word and ideal of "justice" through the charter and opportunity for future peaceful change of the world setup as well as the char ter. Other forces prescribed what seemed in general to me to be basic changes of theory from Dumbarton Oaks along the same lines such as specific inclusion of the Atlantic Char ter ideals, return to international law, world court, safeguarding human rights, etc. From a political standpoint the doctrines of international law and world court have a re publican origin, while the Atlantic Charter and human rights lines were developed by Mr. Roosevelt. The improvements devised by Ameri cans here therefore represent a genuine com promise and exhibit what I think is an out standing development of this meeting, namely, a return to a spirit of cooperation among Ameri can political interests which is so vitally essen tial in the confused state of this world. Most of the inside voting in the delegation has been unanimous. a Notable Cooperation THE British have effected some notable demo cratic cooperation also in a delegation which is split three ways, with four conservatives, three socialists and two liberals. There also unanimity has prevailed. The Russians, of course, have only one party represented. It is too early to make any worthwhile guess of the political or personal results of the gath ering. Vandenberg has impressed newsmen with the way he has handled his press conferences, and if the results here are carried through he no doubt will assume leadership in the repub lican party. He went into this venture strictly on his own and not as a party representative. But I suspect there is a good chance the party will join in with him if final accomplishments of the conference justify. , Minnesota's ex-Governor Stassen, on the other hand, has not been able to win victories for his former one-world viewpoint, which, in deed, was made impossible by events long before this conference. He gives you. the im pression of a sincere man, but he is here gain ing his first real experience in the involved problems of foreign affairs. Incidentally in this connection Mr. Truman gave out through Nelson Rockefeller in Wash iugton the other day what seemed to be a denial of the rumors that State Secretary Stettinlus would be dropped after the conference. Rocke feller said- he told Mr. Truman Stettinlus had done a great job and the president agreed. I :-suspect the inside qn that situation is that Mr. Stettinius has been put into the position where he, as the others, will be judged at the White House by his accomplishments. Bl One Omission UT returning to the nine points, there seemed to be one omission. As a news paperman I have long inougm me netesjiira of a free press were the very cornerstone of liberty and without that cornerstone no sound structure could be erected. How are people to be free if they are not permitted to know what is going on in the world? " The ideal of freedom of press Is In the At lantic Charter in theory but not specifically mentioned. In the ninth point, the cultural ob jectives (which China inspired) the prospect for it is supposed now to be Included more directly. , But actually freedom of press is essential to freedom of thought and seems to be less of a "cultural" Quality than a basic human right. Statesmen, in my opinion, have paid too little attention to this fundamental necessity lor a future peaceful world. : Astronomy Interests Even Those Without Instruments By J. HUGH PRUETT" Astronomer. 'General Extension Division, UnlTerilty of Oregon Not many years ago, after bright Jupiter and Saturn had lor several weeks been nestling close together in the evenine sky, an elderly window" washer asked permission to visit the ob servatory. Soon it was found that he had excellent eyesight and a remarkable store of astronomical knowledge. The telescopic views of these planets delighted him. Enthusing in his Swedish accent, he said, "Every clear night for a long time now I have tbeen watching those two up yonder. Lots of folks haven't even known they were there for they never look up." On a delightful spring evening a woman in a South Dakota town remarked to a friend, "How blue the sky was today!'1 Came the reply, "Was it? I was busy clean- mg house." The one' who Jiaa looked up had also been cleaning house. Another said, "You have the time to look at stars, but I'm busy." A noted physician and writer once remarked that he was never contented without determining at the close of an evening "what was going on in. the Heavens.". A very busy woman who works all day in an office, is ac tive in many organizations, and who keeps her own house, finds cheer in the love of nature in its varied forms. She has said, "I al ways look through my window at the sky in at least two direc tions at bedtime and again at the beginning .of each new day. Whether starlit or stormy, the sky is an inspiration to me." A mother who works hard for her own family and others finds great delight in the gorgeous sun sets glimpsed across the western valley while busy at her daily tasks. For years she has been an enthusiastic observer of northern lights and Perseid meteor show ers. Peace and strength- come through her ability to "look up." A young couple, busy all day in offices and at night building their new home, so consistently watched for the "green flash" at sunset over the distant Coast range that ihev became real au thorities on this rare phenome non. Stars at night and the va ried cloud forms across the day time sKy intensely fascinated them. Some one has remarked, "When I look at the innumerable stars in a moonless sky, all thoughts of attempting to learn them flee in terrible confusion." Without knowing a single indi vidual oy name, one may still find delight in this glittering. starry host. The beauty of the scene and the contemplation of the immensity and wonder of our orderly universe surely re pay us for our time to "look up" at the friendly stars. Through a lifetime and from any place in tne worm we snail una them true and insDirine comDanions. Then at. the last we may say witn confidence, "i nave loved tne stars too fondly To be fearful of the night." As late as 1921. the war de partment ruled that "the use of airplane for the transportation of sick and wounded soldiers, when other safer means of trans portation is available, could not be justified."

Josephus Daniels, publisher of the News and Observer, protest-, ed to President Truman today the reported suspension of As- Ml.t-J Di-aco txMnrt. -irti.il nrfnm from Paris. Daniels, a former ambassador to Mexico, was secretary of the navy during World War I. He telegraphed the president: "I have just, seen a report that the Associated Press' facilities have been suspended in Paris, In 1918 when the United Press sent a cable from Brest which caused a premature celebration of Armistice Day, I was asked to recommend action against How ard. (Roy Howard, of the UP sent the cable.) I declined, say ing that any good newspaper man would nave been justified in what Howard did. I can see no justification for suspending the Associated irese. sincere re gards." - Before the Suez canal was con structed, the Bitter lakes, near the southern end of the canal, were dry, salt-encrusted depres sions.

Calif. (To The Edi tor): As we were fortunate to hear the lecture about the estau lishment of an International Free Press, am wondering how many others heard it, too, and just what the reaction here in all America will be. The lecture came over the radio about 9:30 p. m. but am sorry I did not catch the name of the man wno gave out the truth of the matter or subject, it tnere is to De an established International Free Press no doubt it will become one of the greatest factors for world peace. Without a clear and concise understanding of each and every nation's problems, both great and small, there can be no world peace. "Ye shall know the truth and the truth shall make you free" still rings true today as it did two tuousancl years ago. The reason, what America is today, is because there are many kinds of .minds and many kinds of thinkers, who think for them selves. May free thinking never be taken from us as. a people and a nation or else America will fail as a democracy and drift into national socialism, or n a z 1 s m or whatever kind of thinking it may be. In countries where imperialism has . existed for centuries, the masses are taught to think only what a few want them to think, national so cialism. There are many kinds of en emies both within and out of America and only cternnl vigi lance and wise thinking and wise leaders can save us as a nation and establish peace for the world. An international free press would be of great help. Sincerely, Mrs. Carrie A. English.
