The temperature may get up to all of 80 degrees, or maybe a little higher. But you'll hear no complaints from this -corner. We haven't said a harsh word about warm weather in this country since our visit a couple of summers ago to Washington, D. C, Chicago, 111., New York, N. Y., Boston, Mass., and a few way-points. After staggering around in the hot mush that is Washing ton atmosphere in July, we came to the conclusion that we had never before known when we were well off out EPLEY home in Klamath Falls In the summer time. Boston was just as bad as Washington, and Chi cago and New York weren't much better. Since then, we've made it a point, when there gets to be a lot of talk around town about the heat, to remind our readers how favored in the summer time is the high country of east-of-the-mountains Oregon and northern California. Our experience with summer heat here is not only far more pleasant than that in the swelter ing east and midwest, but it also has it all over the lower valleys on our own west coast. That's a truth well known to anyone who has occasion, in hot weather, to drive over the mountains to the west, the southwest, or the northwest. Opc en Letter Herb Grey, President Jackson County Chamber of Commerce i Medford, Ore. 1 Dear Herb: j-rr In the recent friendly ruckus between us !over that highway designation, a great deal i 7 wt said from your side about the economic I . superiority of the country along your route as I J- compared with that over here. People over j there added up a lot of figures and set up a 5 '- hue and cry that convinced the highway com-. .mission. ' jj t" i We have before us the June 28 report of the J - Seventh War Loan campaign, and in it we find ;aome interesting comparisons between Jackson and Klamath counties. j " First there are the E bond quotas. Jackson's i; -: is $1,067,000 and Klamath's is $1,538,000. For S some reason, the gents who figure out those iiT?quotas thought we ought to buy more bonds iKi- than Jackson county. . tj Now, neither you nor we have made our E !. bond quotas. But I note the report that KIam- iSVath has bought $1,115,712 in E bonds when this '? 'report was prepared. That was 72.5 per cent of -.quota. Jackson, on the same date, had bought ; $631,144, or 61 per cent. Klamath had pur- ;- chased $464,568 more in bonds than Jackson county. " The 1940 census population of Jackson county fit 38.213. while that of Klamath county is I 40,497. Since 1940, Jackson has had the big ;j tamp, wane development ana nacuiraui iw nau i: the influx that came witn uie navai air siauon "-"-and the Marine Barracks. The last figures from r--the OPA, as we recall, showed you had more 5V population than we have. They may not have jr." been right. Anyhow, we have a bigger bond ij quota than you have, and we have bought a ;H lot more than you have. Neither of us can be proud of our E bond ' sales, because we both have failed so far to ;t,rnake our quota. But the comparisons noted i.here". If you will republish them over there, r'niay serve to spur the purchases in both of. our counties, and that would make them most i J" worthy. y.rt personally, we imnx h wouia oe a grapa . thing If our tlme-nonorea community rivalry would have the effect, in this case, of pushing both counties over the top in this campaign. There isn't much time left. Sincerely, Malcolm Epley. a a Co-Operation ON Page One of the Lakeview Examiner this week was a brief notice to the effect that the Examiner office would be closed on Wed nesday, July 4, and asking that "copy be turned In as early as possible this week." Offhand, that sounds as if an inter-office News Behind The News By PAUL MALLON WASHINGTON, July 2 Two senators were talking over the San Francisco peace formula. One wondered what steps the administration would take to sell it to the people, observing that if Mr. Roosevelt were alive there would no doubt be a great pressure propaganda drive organized to herald the document as the great est advancement of man since the ten com mandments and perhaps even greater. The second senator correctly concluded that Messrs. Truman and Stettinius are modestly putting forward their program, laying no great claims for it, and allowing it to speak for itself. Indeed, the inner congressional sentiment seems generally to run to the theory that while this formula certainly does not guarantee either peace or security, no alternative improvement is possible now. Thus, the majority opinion con cludes the document might as well be ratified to see what Mr. Stettinius and the other world organization leaders can work out of it. The San Francisco conference did not mater ially alter the Dumbarton Oaks scheme. Its main work was the building up of the economic and social council and adoption of the trustee ship system. Basically the peace-keeping project was left without change, to wit: , a a - a No Police Force . ""HE security council, backed by the chiefs of I staff of the five big United Nations, will not have an international police force. To stop an aggressor, it will order nations to take nun tary measures. The council itself may take economic steps to isolate an offender, but the big five nations specifically retain the right to veto any action and an objection by any one of them can break down the whole peace formula. This veto right was retained at San Francisco ' over the protest of small nations, because "the big three (Russia, Britain and the United States) have the only formidable sea, air and land forces and they did not want the other eight smaller nations on the council ordering their armies around. This formula, then, is purely tentative, and how much it will amount to remains for future events to determine. Surely it should stop little wars, but it does not even pretend anything more than hope for avoiding big ones. Indeed, it recognizes realistically the facts of international life and is far away from the fancy projects advanced earlier in the war by some officials of this government to promote "one world," a-quart-of-milk-a-day, etc. The idealism of the document is centered largely in the economic and social council, but even there, restraint is noticeable. The charter gives this council the obligation of promoting "human rights and fundamental freedoms for, and without distinction as to race, sex, language or religion. . It does not mention freedom of press, which certainly is a fundamental freedom. Of vhat good is freedom of language without freedom to use it? It seems a full pledge for our constitu tional liberties was avoided, possibly for fear of embarrassing contrasts with the Russian sys tem of political use of its press under dictatorship.

I think you fell oil' lliut judder on purpose 1' Moderated Notions THE navy seems to have caused Mr. Stettinius to moderate his trusteeship notions to some vague extent not clear in the text. It appears a special category for bases in "strategic areas" has been created, but whether we will get ownership of the Jap islands for ourselves is not plainly settled. There are many other ap parent defects in the scheme which may lead to future trouble. A possibility of conflict between the general assembly of all the nations and the security council is apparent, although the council will dominate and can force any important action. Most of the voting is to be done by two-thirds, which raises the prospect that action desired by the majority conceivably could fail and no decision may be reached in some cases. Cer tainly action is likely to be limited to what everyone wants. This is not a particularly new world en visioned by the charter. It is merely a continu ance of the war world cooperation policy of the United Nations into the peace, providing them with a very loose working arrangement. The really important influence for peace or war will be wielded by the Big Three in the development of their future foreign policies, inside or outside this organization.

The voice of the people was back of the Moscow agreement, back of the Dumbarton Oaks proposals, back of the San Francisco con ference. We, the people of the United States, want no more wars. Al ready the seeds of the next war are in the wind. Friction be tween nations can only be re moved by UNITED action; by settling small arguments we can avoid great wars. We can achieve peace. The United States and 49 other na tions met at San Francisco. They drew up a charter for a United Nations organization. Nations, acting together, offer the best hope of preventing wars. This time the United States must lead the way to peace. Our senato must ratify the United Nations charter. Speak out for future peace! Write your senators today! it is not important tnat tne letters be neatly typed, couched a fine literary style, or full of cogent arguments. It IS im portant that they come from people in all walks of life, that there be an unprecedented quan tity, ana mat tncy represent a great popular outcry for United States leadership in building the peace. If the public de mand is strong enough and suf ficiently sincere, there will be no delay and no attemDts to sabotage U. S. participation in the organization. The Klamath County League of Women Voters has furnished speakers for 25 organizations in Klamath county and northern California in order to explain the United Nations charter to our people. This is our oppor tunity to open the door to peace. WRITE YOUR SENATORS TO DAY, Sincerely, MURIEL T. MCKAY. President Klamath County League of Women Voters. PLANS APPROVED ASTORIA.
