Bull works on a long-term foreign policy and
therefore we may expect him to carry on along

Today's Roundup
By MALCOLM EPLEY
I ONE of the fine things we have in this big
area of ours is the friendship that exists
among our many communities.
That thought comes up in connection with
the quick approval given by
I the Modoc county defense
', council to a resolution favor
ing establishment of through
airline service to Klamath
Falls.
While such service would
be highly valuable to Modoc
people, and they know it, we
nevertheless have seen simi
lar circumstances elsewhere in
which smaller communities
would refrain from giving
such support to a larger town
through prejudice.
There is nothing of that kind in the family
of communities of this fine section of northern
California and southern Oregon, and it is a
j condition which will benefit all of us as time
l goes on,
.
! Examiner's Letter
I' NCIDENTALLY, we have a letter from
Francis W. Brown, chief examiner of the
I civil aeronautics board, which is of great inter
! est.
t Referring to the report of the examiner
t who recommended Klamath be omitted from
through airline service, he said:
"It should be pointed out that this report
constitutes the recommendations by the ex
aminer based upon his consideration of the evi
dence introduced during the course of public
hearing and does not necessarily represent the
views of the board. Under the board's pro
cedure, the various parties to the proceeding
will be afforded opportunity to file exceptions,
briefs in support thereof, and to present oral
argument before the board . . . Please be as
sured that in reaching its decision the board
gave careful consideration to the needs of
Klamath Falls for a fully adequate air trans
portation system."
That's not news, but it emphasizes what we
have been saying that Klamath has a chance
to get the service it needs and deserves in this
case if it presents the information properly
and the board gives it real consideration.
The War Today
By D.WITT MacKENZlE
Associated Press Foreign Affairs Analyst
LABOR'S victory over Winston Churchill's
conservative party in the English elections
means a strong swing to the left, but we
shouldnt mistake it as repre- f
seming me long-nairea Drana
of intellectual socialism.
It isn't a revolutionary up
heaval but an evolutionary
change arising from the de
sire of labor for a bigger place
In the sun for a new way
of life. We may expect a big
change in England's social
politics under the new govern
ment. There will be consid
erable nationalization of in
dustry. There will be an even DeWitt Mackeiuie
greater redistribution of incomes a leveling
off. The big estates of the landed aristocracy
will continue to disappear with increasing
rapidity.
However, this change relates to domestic
r"OR some three weeks Tokyo has been nerv
r ously forecasting a British attack on tho
mammoth naval base of Singapore which for
nearly three and a half years has been one of
Japans key positions for offense and defense.
Frequently when the mikado's spokesmen
broadenst prophesies like that they are fishing
for information from the allies hoping that wo
shall be foolish enough to make a retort that
will divulge our plans. In this case, however,
the Japs undoubtedly are sincere. As witness
that they have been evacuating civilians from
the island to the Malayan mainland and arc
preparing for attack.
Well, they may be right. My information
from good sources is that Admiral Lord Louis
Mountbattcn, commander-in-chief in the south
east Pacific, has been getting a lot of ships and
materiel from Europe and Is fairly well set for
major action. It's worth notinm too, that
Mountbattcn attended the Big Three conference
at Potsdam yesterday. Certainly it's a position
for us to watch.
IT is true that the monsoon season, with its
fierce winds and rains, is now in full blast
over the Indian ocean. But this wouldn't
necessarily prevent an operation against Singa
pore, since the lower Malay peninsula is outside
the monsoon belt. As I see it, the British
could make an amphibious invasion of the nar
row part of the peninsula, establish a base
through which to funnel reinforcements and
supplies, and then fight their way down to
Singapore, which lies just off the tip.
Recapture of Singapore would be one of the
big victories of the war, for it would permit
the allies to reopen the narrow Strait of
Malacca between the Malay peninsula and Su
matra. Through this strait, which is a short
cut between the Indian ocean and the South
China sea, the British East India fleet could
pour for operations against the China coast and
Japan proper.
....
Revenge
IT will be a great moment for John Bull when
he starts his assault to avenge the disaster
which the Japs inflicted on him at the be
ginning of '42. "Invincible" Singapore fell on
February IS at one of the bleakest periods of
the World war for the allies. The mikado's
forces had assaulted Pearl Harbor on December
7, Wake island fell on December 23, Hongkong
followed on Christmas Day and the enemy had
occupied Manila on January 2. Hitler already
was counting his chickens and why not!
Singapore was the most powerful naval base
in all that part of the globe. It had taken 15
years to build it, at a cost of $80,000,000, and
it was one of the wonders of the world.
It's 22 square miles of .deep sea anchorage
could accommodate the entire British fleet. It
had a floating dock capable of handling a 45,
00 0-ton battleship, a graving dock able to take
care of the vast liner Queen Mary, and great
underground depots. It was guarded by huge
coastal guns.
Good Guess?
NOBODY barring the Japanese had dream
ed that this Gibraltar of the Orient could
be captured or even harmed. Thus it was one
of the greatest shocks of the whole war when
the Nipponese fought their way down through
the steaming jungle of the Malay peninsula
and swarmed over onto this 217 square miles
with its population of some 600,000.
Tokyo believes that a preliminary to the as
sault against Malaya will be British occupation
of the Nicobar islands, off the northwest tip
of Sumatra. That seems like another good
guess on their part. Keep an eye on ltl

I'll like to answer tiuu.
You people wno complained
of our planes i mining too much

they woke me up too and I live
near the base where it sounds
much louder than some places,
but do you know what 1 think

say, thank God our boys arc up
there training to keep our sky
and land snfu from those sneaky
Japs. Do you ever stop to thiiiK
that all the enemies raids arc
really made at night?
Oh, yes, Wo just go to bed to
sleep and never stop to think
of the hell our allies had while
they tried to sleep, tho bombs
bursting ail around them and of
our boys going over on ships
and trying to get a little shut
eye and hear the sound of the
sneaky Jap planes overhead and
men seems our dovs oociies iiy

May you folks who complain
realize our servicemen are keep

war on. The next time our boys
wake you, take time to sit up
and pray and say, "Thank God
for our boys, stay up there and
keep uo the sood work. And
may God bless all the service

you don't get the sleep of Jus

decided.

after a few hours he mopped his

MALIN Sewer lines are be
ing laid this week to the Klam
ath basin's only permanent,
farmer-owned and operated
labor camp adjacent' to Malin,
on land purchased from Mrs.
Katie Spolek. The big camp,
located here by mutual agree
ment of farmers of the Merrill,
Malin, Klamath Falls and Bo
nanza communities will be ready
for occupancy in time for this
fall's harvest dates, probably
August 20, it was announced to
day by Louis Lyon, president of
the chamber of commerce and
member of the Calore Packing
company.
All camp installations in ad
dition to the land are the re
sponsibility of the growers. The
125 tents and some equipment
owned by the government will
be used. The government also
contributes $4000 toward the
nrnipnt anri in aHrliltnn u
growers, by assessment against
all irrigated InnH in tha Matin
district, will add between $7500
and $8000 to complete the camp.
noBcasinem rates are id cems
nor acre.
Tents will be renter! at. S nor
ween. i,osi or electricity, fuel,
tamp management, salary oi a
nurse and other expenses will be
paid by the rental fees and ac
cumulated fund. Water will be
furnished free by the city of
Malin.
Growers of Malin, following a
suggestion by the Malin cham
ber of commerce met some
months ago with growers of
other districts in the basin and
proposed the camp, one of three
in me state, assuring response
bility for construction and main
tenance. No camp for Mexican
nationals will be located here
this year. These if thev are
available, will be housed as be-
rore at the old CCC camp north
ox xuerrin.
There is no guarantee that
Mexicans will be available this
season for the rjotatn hnrvpst
Lyon stated, and it is his belief
that the labor situation in the
Klamath basin is the most crit
ical since the beginning of the
war.
