Modoc, SUkljou countlea yMi 97 00 Mambar, Aaaociatad Praa Member Audit Buroau Circulation -Si EPLEY Today's Roundup By MALCOLM EPLEY KLAMATH'S Buckaroo Days show has a repu tation for good entertainment. It attracts each year a goodly number of able arena per formers from all parts ot the country, the stock has been consistently eood, and as rodeos go it is rated among the most interesting and thrill ing. There is every reason to expect the forthcoming show to be up to this standard. We have gone to a lot of Buckaroo Days shows, and we have only one suggestion to make. That is: keep the affair moving. Don't let the action . lag and the crowd become bored and disinterested. - We aren't pretending that the Buckaroo Days management doesn't know the need for a fast, active show. And we know the problems . that sometimes develop in their effort to pro duce that kind of entertainment. But we're making the suggestion at this time just to encourage the boys to even greater efforts in ; that direction. It's the only serious criticism we've ever heard of the Klamath show. a a a Tule Death Rate FOR fairly obvious reasons, the birth rata at the Tulelake WRA center is above aver age. But it is also a point of interest that the death rate there is below normal. Looking for causes for the latter departure from the average, we are forced to the con clusion it must be because life under the restrictions of the nearby camp is less strenu ous and hazardous than that led by most of us outside its boundaries. Removed from normal living conditions, the colonists are not subjected to the same urge that keeps most of us on the run. They are not in competitive work or business activity. They do not have to fight for economic survival. If they are ambitious, they can't do much about it. They are removed from certain accident hazards that menace the rest of us. They may do a little of it surreptitiously, but for the most part they do not Indulge in the dissipa tions that are fairly common outside the fences of the camp. It appears that infant mortality among Jap anese in the colony has been low, and this may be attributed in part to the adequate medi cal care given the evacuees equal, at least, to that available to the general public. The Tulelake colony death rate testifies to the humane treatment given by a generous government to aliens and technically disloyal Japanese held at Tulelake, in marked contrast to the treatment afforded our civilians who have been held by Japan. It also gives some hint as to the pressures, the habits, and the other hazards of "normal living." m m m Briefs From The Pocket File i! ...... ON Sunday, in is Becomes again tne land oi the free and the home of the brave for Tippy and Junior Epley and all the other dogs of Klamath Falls ... A fisherman tells us that he found himself in an enormous swarm of mosquitoes on a nearby creek and, being without lotion, tried rubbing whiskey on all exposed skin . . . The result was a discovery that mosquitoes like whiskey, too . . . We are told that another fisherman owns a small air plane equipped with pontoons ... He can take off from Klamath Falls and, in a few minutes, land on one of those lakes not fre quented by land-bound fishermen ... A "kicker" will move the plane about on the lake for trolling, or he can fly-fish from shore . . . With a full basket, he takes off and in another few minutes is back home . . . Klam ath county, with an area of 5973 square miles, is larger than any one of the states of Con necticut, Delaware, Rhode Island or the District of Columbia . . .

News Behind The News By PAUL MALLON WASHINGTON, June 29 Last Wednesday I started a search for the answer to what is this thing called communism which is running over- fcurope and reached the con ) elusion at that first stop, it was not communism, i not socialism, not bolshevism, not Marxism but was simply a despotism of the proletariat. The proletariat is the lowest class of society. The word is not new. It was used in ancient Rome to denote those who contribute nothing to the state. Synonyms for it are: "Rabble" and "peasantry" in our dictionaries. The way Russia uses the word to describe its government proudly as "a dictatorship of the proletariat," naturally assumes you must have a dictatorship to run tilings for the proletariat It is not only the lowest class economically, , but also intellectually and spiritually. In truth, it has no spirit not even for the one political party which Russia has. On the eve of war, the Komonsol (youth movement) had an announced membership of 12,000,000 although there were 40,000,000 of komonsol age in the country, (Since then large blocs of the army have been blanketed in and the last figure showed 7,500,000 of the 40,000, 000 available, had joined the movement at the end of 1943.) In a total population of about 183,000,000 (before the war) only 3,900,000 Russians are members of the only party allowed to function. Therefore the "proletariat" has been excluded from the operations of the government. The soviet leadership conducts campaigns to enlarge the party once in a while, but Lenin's theory on popular representation was expressly put forward: "Russia used to be ruled by 150,000 land owners. Why could not 240,000 bolsheviks do the same job?" a a a a Dictatorship Over Proletariat THE point of this is that Stalin's government is a dictatorship over the proletariat, not by the proletariat. It docs not get its power from the consent of the governed or even from consultation with those in whose name it con ducts its dictatorship. I suppose it might rea sonably be contended the proletariat is in capable of deciding or advising what is in its best interests. A counterpart in our country would be a dictatorship of the United States by sharecrop pers, but not conducted by them or allowing them consultations, or any power, the sole power being wielded over them by a small political party of which few of them were members. Can anyone possibly believe this sort of system challenges this nation's democracy? None of our sharecroppers who understood what it would do to them would have it, but would surely prefer improvements in our own sys tems. If they would not want it, who would? Only the European peasants' mind would accept such a proposition. No Russian has ever known liberty. First the poor knew the terrorism of the czars, against which they did not protest, (the revo lution being led by our New Yorkers) and now they have another despotism in their name, and they do not protest it Throughout Europe, the common man Is a docile mentality who has known little of our kind of liberty. His mind is therefore fertile ground into which to plant dictatorships of any character. Our people would not stand them a minute if permitted free knowledge and choice. . The Russian type of industrial socialism also is not what our socialists want. The Russian brand was more thoroughly examined in W. L. White's book than by any other. Whatever Mr. White may have written which offended the sensibilities of the Russian govern ment, he did inspect the factories with Eric Johnston, head of the U. S. chamber of com merce. They did ask questions about wages, hours, working conditions and they got official answers, which I have not seen challenged. a a a a "Objective" Report THE Artillery Journal, which usually reflects our army non-political viewpoint, says White's is an objective report on Russia. But I do not wish to get in that argument, only to cite the undisputed evidence, namely: The wage of a Russian worker is fixed by government (averages $20 to $40 for a 66-hour week, six days with eight hours, plus three daily hours of overtime.) He lives in a com pany house with fixed rent (government), buys at a company store (government) under fixed prices and complete rationing of all products even in peace times. Generally he eats at the company (govern ment) table, because it is cheaper than buying and preparing his own food. He cannot strike. He cannot move to another plant. He does not find it healthy to protest. His whole life and that of his whole family is directed in every detail by the central one-party control from Moscow. ' What American worker would want that com pletely despotic, autocratic authority exercised by any arbitrary and irremovable political party or by anyone? Any examination of Russian conditions must lead to the conclusion that it is not a legitimate challenge to our way of life, not a hot com petitor to our theory of government, but in practice and theory at home, a desperately striving movement to keep swimming against a real poverty and bankruptcy beyond any thing we have ever known. Only in its political nature is its government competitive against us not its people or its system. The people seem to want nothing but peace. I cannot possibly conceive of the Rus sian peasant or worker thinking today of de feating or. overthrowing the United States. They have every respect for our superiority. But it is their government with which we must get along and live in peace in the postwar world. We cannot reach the people, or they us. Humanly or ideologically, , intellectually or spiritually, in any reasonable calculation, there is no ground for fear of Russia as a nation of peasant-minded people or economically as com petitive workers, or spiritually as an inspired people. Only politically, only in the realm of poll tics, does fear find valid roots. I will deal with considerations in that realm in a subsequent column.
