Sept 28, 1843 EDITORIALS ON NEWS (Continued from Page One) and the rebuilding of their ex- fiort markets, wmcn nave neon ost during the period when British industry was concentrat ing on war production. AS they see it, there are Just two ways by which they can turn the trick by getting the bulk of their raw materials from the sterling area (that is to say, the countries using the pound, instead of the dollar, as money) and oy reducing SHAKI LY the proportion of their total production that can be permitted to go into domestic consumption. They are going to have to do BOTH. A LL this has been talk In big " words. Let's see if we can get it down to earth. Reducing sharply that part of British production that can be PERMITTED to go into domestic consumption means that British people will have to go on DOING WITHOUT the products of peace that they now want as acutely as we do. They will have to go on patch ins ud their old clothes so that the new cloth from the mills can be sold abroad. They will have to go on doing without electric irons and washing machines, and soap and so on through all the Ions list of peace-time desirables. They will have to draw their belts tighter, and ration their food even more closely than they have been doing. England must EXPORT OR DIE and every Briton knows it. T END-LEASE would have bridged the. gap, enabling them to get raw materials while they are building up their lost markets abroad and also while they are providing some of the comforts of peace time (including houses) that the British now want as badly as we do. If you are able to grasp this situation, you will be able to understand why the British of an kinds and classes were perturbed by the sudden ending of lend' lease. TTERE are 'some figures that 1 are at least Illuminating: In 1938, (the lest year of peace) the United Kingdom (bngland, Scotland, Wales and North Ire land) exported roughly 500 mil lion pounds worth of goods. It IMPORTED 900 million pounds worth of food and raw materials. The difference was made up by British services, such as ship ping, banking, insurance, foreign investments, etc - . The war has destroyed most of Britain's ships, has resulted in the sale of most of her foreign investments and has badly wrecked her world-wide banking and insurance interests. How they are going to fill the gap right now is worrying xnem hadlv. Hence their concern over the ending of lend-lease. They don't just want to scrounge off of us, as our British-haters will insist. But you have to be over here on the ground to understand that fully. T GUILTY TO CHARGE Lee Arlet Hixon pleaded not guilty in circuit court Friday morning to a charge of receiv ing and concealing stolen prop erty. No definite trial date was set by Circuit Judge David H. Vandenberg. ' Hixon allegedly received and concealed a set of work har ness valued at $102 belonging to Vera Crisler on August 17 after the harness had been taken by another party.

Rayenouf Field Opened; Honors Klamath Indian ' (Continued from Page One) committee reiterated Sisemore's statement praising the tribe for its forward step into aviation. Col. Charles T. Brooks of the Marine Barracks was the key note speaker of the program. He explained to Enouf's mother and to the audience just why Iwo Jima had to be taken, de spite its cost of 4300 lives, and asserted that its capture un doubtedly hastened the end of the war over the Japanese.
