FaUa. Ore OD August 30. 1KKJ. under act al congress, March S. 1B7 Member, Aaaodatad Preea Member Audit Bureau Circulation i0 Today's Roundup By MALCOLM EPLEY THE effort to get a federal court term for Klamath Falls appears to be moving along smoothly. Bills have been introduced into both the senate and house by the Oregon delegation, and the prospects for favorable action are good. In this situation, Klamath is fortunate in being able to ask for something without suggesting that it be taken away from somebody else. The bill provides for court terms at Portland, Pendleton and Medford, where they are al ready held, as well as at Klam ath Falls. EPLEY A great deal of federal court business orig inates in the Klamath Falls area, and this is a logical point for holding of a court term. The proposed law provides for court to be held here on the first Tuesday in June. Under its terms, the marshal and clerk of the district court would provide for at least one deputy at Pendleton, one at Medford, and one at Klamath Falls. New USO IT was a long time coming, but the new Klamath USO set-up is a grand contribution to the hospitality program for service men in this area- The roomy establishment, located . in the Arcade garage building, is a vast improvement over the facilities which the USO has been forced to get along with so long on Main street. The old quarters, nevertheless, were made homey and comfortable, and performed a fine service, under both the Commandos, who started the job, and the USO which has carried it on. Klamath now has one of the finest USO set-ups on the coast. It is an improvement that makes this still a better liberty town for service men, a factor worthy of the consideration of the armed forces and the government- in the establishment of military facilities and in main taining their personnel strength. e e Publicity OCCASIONALLY, we receive a visit from a delegation or representative of some or ganization concerning that organization's pub licity. These visitations usually come when the idea has gotten around that for some rea son, The Herald and News is not giving the organization the publicity its members think it ought ,to have... . - - - The Herald and News has ho prejudice against any organization, and it is our policy to treat organization news as fairly and impartially as we can. We want to carry all the newsworthy information about local groups. If we don't always do it, we at least have good intentions, and there is no purpose here to slight anyone. Klamath Falls, like most communities of its size, has a large number of organizations, and like most organizations, they are publicity minded. It gets to be quite a. job to. keep up with them. It is not possible to carry all the material which emanates from the organiza tions, especially that of a general nature which is sent in from the national publicity offices. But we do want to carry the truly newsworthy local news, and we are glad to discuss publicity with organization representatives at any time. At any rate, please don't get the idea we've got a hate on against any group. We haven't. e e Briefs From The Pocket File RENO high school this year graduated 124, Klamath Union high 217 .. .

The War Today By DeWITT MacKENZIE AP Foreign News Analyst PRESIDENT TRUMAN'S disclosure that the U. S. army in the Pacific ultimately will be twice its present size, and "bigger than our army was in Europe at its height," will fall on sorry ears in a Japan which already is ap parently abandoning its hold on southern China and concentrating its strength in the north. There are signs the Mikado's war-lords are adopting Hitler's strategy for his desperate last ditch stand. This was to fight a delaying action and ultimately to retire into his inner fortress for a finish fight. Meantime he pinned his slender hopes on some circumstance caus ing a quarrel among the allies. Apropos of this, the well-informed British official military Commentator Veritas makes these observations: e e e Comparable To Germany 1 1 IAPAN at the present time finds herself Jin a situation not unlike that of Ger many before D-Day. In a sense the Japanese are awaiting their own D-Day. They have suffered considerable reverses in outlying ter ritories, their naval power has been crippled so that it can no longer protect their sea lines of communication or keep allied forces out of Japanese home waters,-and allied submarines and air attacks have already destroyed a large proportion of their ocean-going transport. "In these circumstances Japan is evidently falling back on the 'fortress' technique, and adopting the 'fortress' mentality. Just as Ger many planned to hold the reich with its neigh boring countries behind impregnable defenses and with supporting bastions in the Balkans, Italy and Norway, so, in very much the same way, the Japanese are proclaiming their in tention to carry on the fight to the death in defense of Japan itself, with Korea, Manchuria and Northern China, Their large garrisons in the Asiatic Balkans (Malaya, Sumatra, Siam, etc.) will of course fight to the last, but it is not improbable that Tokyo is now resigned to' their eventual loss. '. e a a a Tries Split Tactics 11 A HEN Germany saw her enemies press VV ins in from three sides upon the inner 'fortress,' she conducted a high-pressure propa gandist and diplomatic campaign to split the.l allies. In similar circumstances, Japan is doing likewise, and she evidently calculates that the confused situation in Europe (and in China) offers better prospects of success than in the case of- the nazis."

Ickes, but his ideas on treat ment of American-Japanese are soundly American.- Now I don't like the barbaric action of the pro-Japs any more than anyone else, but I do believe in fair play. And we don't need to wor ry about their punishment, for God tells us in Romans 12:19, "Vengeance is mine, I will re pay, saith the Lord." He takes care of that here with armies of Christian nations and in the hereafter, too. B. Z. Smith to the contrary, it would be just as unfair to ask the Japanese-Americans to leave the country of their choice as it would be to deport the Smiths, Shultzs, Swensens, Pierres, Gia cominnis and Svehlaks because' of their ancestry. There is no race on the face of the earth that has "no stain on its back ground," no nation whose his tory is clean. Christ said: "Let him who is without sin cast the first stone," "Love thy neighbor as thyself," and in the parable of the Good Samaritan defined our neighbor as anyone in need or being op pressed. He also taught us "to be in subjection to the powers that be" so the majority of the Nisei have proved themselves better citizens than the white citizens who operate and patron ize the black markets and keep striking for higher wages, there by making prices raise to meet the higher production cost. As for the opinion of our re turning servicemen, it's my opinion they are more tolerant than B. Z. Smith! They know, that the Nisei are no more, tn blame for Japan's treachery at Pearl Harbor and barbaric treatment of prisoners than German-Americans are for Hitler's actions. They also know the Nisei soldiers have given just as loyal service to Uncle Sam as they have and are just as en titled to recognition as white servicemen. If there's any more spleen to be vented it had better be di rected against the wrongdoer,, whether he be a jaywalker or a grafter in Washington, D. C. Ir there weren't so much con doning of and laughing at small crimes, there'd be less "wicked ness in high places" and dissen sion among nations. So I dare you to help make this a truly Christian nation that will be better able to make and maintain peace by practic ing peaceful ways at home. Sincerely, Z. J. KING. LETTER FROM S. F. SAN FRANCISCO, Calif., (To the Editor) There are 49 na tions represented here and it has brought in over 7000 people, great and near great from all over the world. Perhaps the most famous here is Field Mar shal Smuts of the union of South Africa.- These people want to sell their country to you and are most free and friendly. They have a country about one third the size of USA. The great gen eral is 75 today and has done more fighting and working for world peace than anyone here. Of course, every hotel is filled and some have the entire build ing. On the 10th floor of the Mark Hopkife I ran into Jim Farley. He is still Big Jim and will no doubt be heard from again. Innocent that I am, I tried to find the Finnish neoDle snrl found them missing. I am sorry I expected so much from them. ine Belgium people are fine, but like the British are upset at home and are in the middle of the stream in world affairs. Thr foreign minister is head of the delegation. In fact, every coun try has one of their big men here. If you have a card you can call to see any of them, ac cording to your interest. The entire conference is run by young people and they are all eager to see something done. The committees work in the Vet erans building and are at work all the time. The British people are not sure about the election but thev know it will be all right on the idea that if they have a change of drivers me car win De tne same. Of course, everyone is interest ed in the USSR and I spent most time with them. They sold me on quite a lot of things but most of the press men here find it hard to understand them. They have with them one general and one admiral. I met the sailors and I am impressed. When I said they are all so young, one of them said it is a young country. They have much to be proud of and seem to wish to tell us the good side, and while they are ready to teach us - their ways, they seem against or afraid of the freedom of the American ideas. We have no doubt much to learn from each other. I did not seem to find anyone interest ed in religion although it is free. I am told, however, there are many. The USA has an imposing group here and we may be sure that all the rights of the common man will be cared for. The dominant idea seems to be international. For instance, an ex-service mans league has start ed and there are others. The city is filled with our ser vice men again, young men cov ered with decorations. The war goes on but the dove of peace is trying to find a home before the waters go down. DAVID J. FERGUSON.
