Of these, 2107 went to tha polls yesterday. v The others, numbering 18,. 730, didn't give a damn about iclty and state Issues Involving .more than $12,000,000 of "public money. ' . Hunt through all the usual ' excuses and "extenuating cir cumstances" and you can't find enough of them to show . yesterday's voting volume up as anything but a public dis grace. . But you won't have to look -very far among yesterday's EPLEY non-voters to find ' yowlers and crabbers who ' frequently sound off , about: how badly the , - public business is run. . a a . ' ' a ; They Were There, Anyway SAD as was the volume showing in yester day's vote, it would have been still more , dismal, no doubt. If it hadn't been for the large . number of people who went to the polls as election board members. These people, being at the polls, voted as a matter of course. Chances are a considerable number of them would have stayed away if ' they hadn't had jobs to do at the polling places. There were 794 election board workers. , Subtract that from the total number of votes . , east, and you have the magnificent number of 1 1313 Klamath citizens who went to the polls yesterday, specifically to vote and for no other reason. - - - Amazing, isn't it, out of nearly 21,000 regis- tered voters and a total population of about 45,0007 . . a a a a Conservative SMALL -as it was in total volume, the de cisive approving vote on city measures is testimony to the conservative policy prevailing i in public financial affairs here. ; -The municipal . officials did not go off the deep end with proposals for big bond issues. They asked for two special levies, which will ' be collected In a two-year period and will then be wiped off the books. They got both of ! .them. The vote oh the city-county jail measure is indicative of public approval of this co-operative j enterprise which may well show the way in j Oregon toward elimination of duplication of I certain city-county functions ' and coordination of law enforcement work. - On the, sewer levy, the voters' took a chance that the federal government will approve and help finance a sewage line to serve the military housing and some civilian residences in the couth section of the city. Representatives of the Federal Works Agency,. . or whatever bureau it is which has been toying with this idea, should now get busy and make up their minds about it. It's time to get going. It is surprising there were any votes against ' the measure which amended the city charter as it relates to filling vacancies which may 'occur by death or resignation of elective city officials. Under the old plan, it was necessary to have a special election, just to fill the va cancy in one council post. By the action taken yesterday, vacancies of this nature can be filled by appointment by the council, saving the cost of a special election. The appointee will hold office until the people, at a regular - election, can fill the post. a a a a State Issues THE cigarette tax on the state ballot came closer to passing than is customary for a ales tax in this state, even though it was not so sound in principle as certain sales tax measures that have taken greater beatings. The powerful school group gave it support. The next sales tax plan that come up in this state should be a part of an integrated tax system growing out of an over-all study s'uch a is just being started under a measure adopted by the last legislature under the urging of Governor Snell. Oregon voters authorized the expenditure of $10,000,000 collected Income tax money for a needed state building program at the higher educational and other state institutions. This measure was carefully explained to voters throughout the state and it had the kind ot support that puts an Issue across in uregon. . The War Today By J. M. ROBERTS JR. AP Forelcm Affairs Analyst II DO not want to discourage German thrift I and science but I want to keep it from being aeared to a war machine again. These words from Bernard Baruch come pretty close to summing up the general view of those who would steer a course between the extremes of dismemberment and complete ' industrial destruction and any attempt to re habilitate the reich by turning it over to "good Germans. Baruch would dismember German industry. To those who fear the effect of such a move on European economy he says in effect that the German share of-Europe's export business can be produced in friendly countries with both manpower and machines which would otherwise be a German war potential. He would permit the Germans to produce only enough to meet immediate consumption. And that, presumably, at not too high a level. a a a a No Signs Of Revival IT seems obvious that Germany is going to be occupied for years. There is no sign of any revival from within. For a long time, then, Europe's economic interests are going to be in more or less of a pool. It would seem of little moment, whether- the industries are located in Germany,, or to the west or east. For years all German production has been devoted to war and her own immediate needs. What little she has exported has been to nearby subjugated or coerced countries in grudging return for essential war imports. For even longer Germany has produced ap proximately 90 per cent of her own food. With the expected breaking up of large estates, particularly the Junker lands, and by applica tion of some of the manpower which has gone into industry, she could produce it all. - , - a a : a Still True THIS remains true, even if several million I ; men are assigned to reconstruction projects in other countries. What she did during the war (during which the western allies alone encountered more than 10,000,000 men in the armed forces who were not participating in production) is sufficient evidence of that. This need not mean that Germany is to be held in slavery. Only that she shall be quar antined, then fumigated by such educational means as fit the case, and finally readmitted to society if and when she fully adopts the idea that a decent existence alongside her neighbors is better . than constant, fruitless struggle for hegemony. WASHINGTON, June 23 JP) Reduced military and govern ment requirements will prevent . me snarp decreases estimated , earlier in civilian supplies of canned fruits and vegetables. I The civilian supply of canned i fruits from this year's pack, will be about the same as last year tand of commercially canned vegetables only about 10 to 15 per cent smaller than last year. Announcing . this last night; War Food Administrator Marvin Jones also disclosed there will . be a reduction soon in the ter- centage of beef that federally- mspeciea siaugmerers must set aside tor military and, govern ment' needs, , . .

The set aside in such plants for good, choice and commercial grades of beef will be cut from 60 to 30 per cent and canrier and cutter grades from 75 to 65 per cent. Addition To Park .

A committee was authorized to make out the schedule after speakers complained each state had different grade require ments.' One buyer of Bluetag seed might get a different kind in , every state, growers were told. A tour of experiment station forage crops today ended the conference, which heard a dis cussion of other seed crops last night. Speakers said disease-free requirements for potatoes were more uniform man grades but still could be improved.
