A N obscure item In an election that occupies
" an obscure place in public attention just
now is a $26,000 levy for additions
Fremont school building.
This measure will be up for
a vote at the June 18 city
elementary school election. It
will be a separate item from
the budget, which must also
be authorized at that election
if it is to stand in its proposed
form.
We knew something of the
building situation at Fremont
school, and we learned more
about it today on a hasty
trip there in the company of
Superintendent Arnold Gralapp.
What is proposed is to construct an addition
on the Seventh and Washington street corner
of the present building. This will provide an
additional space for manual training. It will
provide adequate dressing rooms for physical
education work in the junior high school. On
the second floor, there will be two additional
classrooms.
Manual training at Fremont now is in
cramped quarters that will be expanded Into
the proposed addition. Dressing rooms for boys
and girls are woefully inadequate, being little
more than tiny halls with single .showers that
must be used by large numbers of youngsters.
There is a shortage of class rooms.
We are convinced the expansion is justified
from the standpoint of need. Furthermore,
Fremont school building is centrally located and
any investment in improvements there will not
be wasted, regardless of future developments.
Fremont is now functioning as the junior high
school for the city, as well as the home of seven
grades from the central zone.
These are factors of sufficient weight to win
an affirmative vote from this writer on the
$26,000 item June 18. The only question that
arises in our mind, and we mention it in order
to insure full consideration of every angle, is
the advisability of making the improvements
now, when they will cost somewhat more than
in normal times and when labor demand is
high. We have decided that tha improvements
proposed will be of such benefit to the current
generation of Fremont youngsters that we will
vote for them this year. f

C. S. Robertson "' "
have known C. S. Robertson for a long
YY time. We have been associated with him
In a number of civic enterprises. We have
talked with him at length about affairs of the
community, the state and the nation. And we
know that his death means the loss of a man
of character, who devoted much of his time
and energy to the public welfare.
In recent years, Mr. Robertson became in
tensely interested in the industrial future of
Klamath Falls. It was he who stimulated
many of the discussion meetings that revolved
around that topic Posthumously, he will have
a part In whatever is yet to be accomplished
as a result of the efforts originating from these
sessions.
His success in financial circles Is well known,
Mr. Robertson was a good citizen, a good
friend, and a good neighbor.

Yea, Man!
CHET MAIN, the resourceful leader of the
Tulelake Growers, couldn't wait to see
us about this one. He called us long distance
to tell us about it.
It cam in a letter from a Charleston, S. C,
fertilizer firm. The firm asked the Tulelake
Growers to give it a list of white farmers of
the Tulelake area, and concluded with this
request:
"Please advise us what other farming coun
ties are real farming sections of California'
"We are getting places," said Chet, "when
people in the east know about Tulelake and
ask us to tell them about the rest of Cali
fornia. ' We're at the top of the state map, and
that's obviously where we belong."
By PAUL MALLON
WASHINGTON, June 14 Senators roundly
damned OPA for weeks then surprising
ly extended its powers another year,
The decision was not illogical. True enough,
OPA has committed many blunders, and Is
wholly unsatisfactory. The gross flaws, how
ever, have been of an administrative nature
and no fault of legislation.
When senators tried to write over-all rules
to cure these defects, they found it difficult,
if not impossible. So as they came up, hot or
cold, against the final question of allowing
OPA to continue, a small majority was readily
found bv the administration to believe that
price restriction management must not be stop
ped while there is a shortage of goods else
there will be inflation.
But there was more behind the senate vote
than logic. I understand a deal was made for
a thorough housecleaning which will amount to
an OPA re-organization. Indeed, It is not Im
possible that Director Bowles himself may go,
although the congressional complaints are not
personally directed against him, but rather
against the sub-strata of what the congressmen
call "theorists, who really do the technical
OPA work in lower level positions.
This crowd clings to its ideas of regimenta.
tion and restrictions on sound business practices
while black market flourish. The ousting of
at least some of these is already planned. In
fact, a few hours before the vote, New York's
Resional Administrator Woolley promised a
shake-up in his much criticized office "very
soon."
a
New Admiration Shown
RATHER surprisingly, the senators critical of
OPA are privately expressing new admira
tion for J. A. Krug, the supposedly New Deal
chairman of the war production board. Busi
nessmen have reported confidence in him, and
say he has sounder ideas than any other official
in the government management despite his
heritage.
This may be due to Mr. Krug's advocacy of
a withdrawal of controls in order to' speed up
reconversion? It would not be surprising if
Mr. Krug wound up on the top of the heap.
These considerations are probably what
caused such ardent anti-OPA fans as Senators
George and LaFollette to vote in favor of the
Barkley compromise amendment which secured
sufficient prestige to put the continuance bill
through the senate. . The progressive LaFollette
and the more conservative George see just about
eye to eye on the defects in OPA so there can
not be much doubt about their glaring validity.
Price uncertainty and regulations unquestion
ably have caused a general reluctance of busi
ness to convert to peace-time goods. While the
OPA has laid down a general formula for re
conversion prices (based on 1942) there are
confused exceptions.
Krug apparently believes OPA mis-management
could causa unemployment in the recon
version era, if continued without change. Now
both Bowles and his head of pricing, Brownlee,
are businessmen (but not of like views with
Krug, George or LaFollette) and whether their
reorganization will be able to reestablish con
fidence of business in OPA management is still
an opes question in the majority senatorial
mind.
Certainly every discernible prospect suggests
relaxing of OPA restrictions and establishment
of a more cooperative attitude, coupled with
more effective action against black markets.

Faces House Vote
rE continuance bill now must pass the house
where no haste is visible, although OPA's
powers expire June 30. Hearings were begun
there only after the senate passed the bill.
However, if the administration handlers are
able to convince the representatives, as they
did the senators, that a better day is coming
in OPA, there may not be much trouble..
Tha house Is generally depended upon to
eliminate the disturbing farm bloc amendment
which the senate tacked on at the last minute,
establishing a cost plus formula for farmers
and meat packers. The senate was half asleep
when the amendment was passed, according to
the administration leaders, who feel sure they
can get it out of the bill.
There is thus a good chance the OPA will
squeeze through with its private promise to be
better.
Housecleaning has been a task beyond the
ability of any management so far. The "theor
ists" trouped in with Leon' Henderson and have
clung fervently to their position.
It must therefore be reported congress is re
luctantly moving to renew OPA's lease on life
because it can think of nothing better to do
and I think many a congressional finger is
crossed.
