Today's Roundup
By MALCOLM EPLEV
JUST to the right is a picture of the fellow
who gets the credit and the honors for the
big news' on Page 1.
. 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 " - .

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."

Protests Suspension

Josephus Daniels, publisher of
the News and Observer, protest-,
ed to President Truman today
the reported suspension of As-

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." -

The fairest MOTHER of the land

The mother whose love nur
tured me.
Her love covers the atmospHere,
Sending happy-ncss every

All my troubles she would

ere the day is past and gone,
Her face with radiance shown.
Never' a trace of the ache in her
heart,
Which she suffered by. a care

But a smile and a welcome just

Of the joys one shares in the

She our sorrows and joys did

She was my pal, the best anywhere.
She never forgets me in her

AN INTERNATIONAL FREE
PRESS
DORRIS. 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.
