Kittened ae eeoond claaa matter at the poatotflce of Klamath HIli, Ore,, on rluguat 30, 1006, under act of cwsreu, T ' March S. 107S ii Member, .'Aeaoclated Praia Member Audit Bureau CtrculaUon Today's Roundup ;i By MALCOLM EPLEY SEVERAL excellent briefs and memoranda have been prepared for presentation to the civil aeronautics board in opposition to the re port of its examiner who would give Klamath Falls only feeder-line service in the west coast airlines cases. ; SJnllcd Airlines and Western Airlines, the two major lines which want to come In here, ,. have prepared detailed, techni cal analyses to show that the examiner's recommendations are off the beam. Pacific, a feeder line which wants to come In here from the east and south, is making a strong EPLEY case, and our friends at Lakeview, Burns and Ontario have prepared an effective memoran dum in. support of Nevada-Pacific, and at the same time put in a powerful plug -for Klamath Falls as a major line stop. Klamath chamber of commerce and airport commission have pre pared an equally strong memorandum. We' need not recount in full the many power ful arguments for giving Klamath a major stop and connecting it with Lakeview, Burns, On tario, Boise, Alturas, Susanville and Reno by feeder line. " We do feel that an excellent job has been done in these briefs, and that if the CAB is fair-minded and' pays proper attention to these arguments, the appropriate action will be taken." We will have more to say about the various, briefs later." .... i e . Briefs From The Pocket File THE Weyerhaeuser picket line business is serious, but it has its lighter sides .... . One of the three CIO pickets on the line this morn ing watched the AFL cars go through, and then remarked to Sheriff Low: "It's a good thing you were here. sheriff, or; they would have beaten h out f us" . . Sheriff Low, who seldom uses highfalutin' words, surprised people at the picket linej the: other-morning -when he told the CIO group on the road to "disperse" . . . : Afterwards,., the sheriff . said he wasn't sure whether everybody understood hiro; correctly j . . Some of the fellows, he said, may have thought he said "'Just curse" , '," Col. George O. Van Orden, former c.o. at the Marine Bar racks, is now located on Guam in charge of a huge supply program . . . a Bill Randall, former manager of the Klamath airport, who has done good job flying for the navy, was recently reported back at Reno, his old home, and the Reno paper said he might remain there per manently ... A substantial number ol Marine Barracks marines are planning to remain in Expertly Timed COON developments will plainly disclose it as O a well financed and managed campaign, strongest since the sit-down strike, and expertly timed for the reconversion period when all manufacturers are trying to get a jump on com petitors. Behind it is CIO, and behind CIO lie these following conditions: The public, congress and even government has come to look upon CIO as the most power ful political and economic force of the country. It is not. CIO claims 0,000,000 membership, but has a little more than half that many dues payers. From the start it has concealed all data on its membership. To give it 3,000,000 would be generous. Its power lies not in num bers but in riches, which it is able to spend in political campaigns. e 5,000,000 Payers AFL really has about 5,000,000 dues payers and proves it by published bank and certi fied accountant figures. Indeed it bargains for 2,000,000 additional, b.ut It docs not try to control national economy, or use Its money mainly for political action. Now in an organized campaign to spearhead a 30 per cent wage increase and thus control economic policy of the country, CIO actually represents about 5 per cent of the workers. Are not all economic authorities agreed (Messrs. Wallace 'and the manufacturers) that there are in hand and prospect about 60,000,000 peace time jobs for that number of workers? (Best sources say 53,500,000 plus army, making nearly 60,000,000.) Together CIO plus AFL have less than 8, 000,000 dues payers (these figures have been obtained from the best objective authority) and about 10,000,000 for whom they bargain. The farmers are just as powerful a political and economic force, numerically. Their 1943 census showed 10,263,000 at work on farms in the country, at a time when help was depleted. e 40,000,000 Not Organized YET greater than both unionist and farmer are the 40,000,000 or so workers outside both. While the unions are rich (their war in comes were completely free from taxation) and the farmers have three modestly financed lob bies which do not try -to .dominate the country, the 40,000,000 have no organized money or representation. Yet their economic interest is paramount and their wellbelng can make or break the country, while CIO's 3,000,000 is merely equal to the number of normally unemployed. If the 30 per cent wage increase is forced, most of 40,000, 000 will pay in increased prices forever, with out a wage increase for themselves, but with a heavy cut in their savings, because every price increase cuts the value of the dollar in every bond they hold. Direct Economies THE CIO unions, by chosen activity, have thus gone far beyond a position as simple bar- "eeaawwwiMwwwwMW The War Today By D.WITT MACKENZIE Associated Press War Analyst MacKENZIE It means quite Klamath Falls, and some whose homes are else:. , gaining agents for themselves. Through strike where, but who have gotten jobs here, are being discharged locally ... Quite a number of the marines married local girls, and that is one factor in the decision to stay here ... Many'ssay they like the country and its oppor tunities . . . Col. Brooks and Captain Coggeshall, the ranking marine and navy officers at the Barracks, opened the California hunting season in the Mud lake area but returned empty banded, as did the local gents who went along as advisors, guides and camp-mates . . . Dr. Coggeshall said he saw a manzanita bush run ning around about 200 yards away, but couldn't make up his mind to shoot at it. News Behind The News ; By PAUL MALLON WASHINGTON, Sept 20 The big four con gresslonal leaders came away from their confidential confab with Mr. Truman, talking privately about the Irresponsibility of labor, how the discharge of three men in a wheel plant caused the whole Ford empire to shut down, how some little gadget-making factory strike upset another industry, and how the government had to take over the Illinois Cen tral railroad because of some fool walkout. They saw no. possibility of legislation but thought Mr. Truman might give the labor lead ers a talking-to. : Thus, lightly, did they view the developing r campaigns, bills pressed through congress and pressure upon politics through the political action organization, they are directing the econ ; omics and politics of 135,000,000 people, with out the responsibility for making the nation successful. What the politics called "the wolves of Wall Street" may have formerly run the country by their similar money power (without numerical strength) but at least they wanted to keep it going so their profits would continue. , The question thus raised by current events is whether any economic minority can run a coun try in these days of fully planned economics. Plainly it could, if the national responsibility of the group was superior to. its selfish interest but not otherwise. By running wages up and up, much the last few years, now 30 per cent at a clip and more in years ahead, it can utter ly destroy by such inflation every existing value in a nation. Control Needed A HAT is needed is an overall objectivity in VY economic matters, a controlling top pres sure for the greater good. This is the simple duty of government. It is what you expect of government, the reason for its existence. If government fails to furnish this objectivity, it has failed its primary responsibility. If it mere ly pretends to serve public interest, while fear ful of groups, it becomes unworthy of its trust, and will bring the same result as minority domination of national economics.

Well, it could De, although with luck we might be ame to cut that down. Of one thine we may be sure. and this is that we aren't going to be able to convert to western ways- many of the militaristic minded people who have passed their youth.. It's an ancient wheeze but true that you can't teach an old dog new tricKS. You have to catch em young and you have to -catch human beings young if you are bent on changing their natures. Of course there are some Japanese who are against aggression and who believe in the golden rule. but you probably could get most of them into your back yard at one time if you wanted to make a speech to them. ; Begin With Youth This means that the educa tional task lies with the young folk, and it must begin with youngsters as soon as tney nave reached the aee of understand ing. That's the way both Hitler and Mussolini prepared their countries for aggression. The German anti-Christ went much further and reared a generation of barbarians who perpetrated some of the worst atrocities known to history. . Mussolini had a score of years or so in which to achieve his evil mission, but he concentrated on the young folk, both boys and girls. As a result when the time came for him to stab France in the back he had a great force of fanatical fascists behind him. Hitler Worked Fast Hitler worked much faster, but more intensively. Only about half a dozen years elapsed from the time he assumed power in 1933 until he struck the first blow of the second World War. However, nazism had got a grip on many Germans before 1033, and he also had the advantage of working in a militaristic country. In that brief time Hitler turned the young boys of his country into barbarians. He taught the young girls that it was their duty to have babies, and never mind marriage.
