nla end Nevada stagei make one
round-trip a day to Reno.
Inquiries for tickets have
sharply declined because of the
strike and officials of the Klam
ath Falls bus depot said today
that there was no indication as
to how long the strike would
last.
SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 5 M)
Thousands of travelers and com
muters, stranded in seven west
ern and southwestern states by
the midnight strike of Pacific
Greyhound bus drivers, sought
other means of transportation
today as union and management
officials indicated six hours
later there had bqen no change
in the situation.
Taxi drivers reported a bo
nanza on short-haul trips, rail'
' roads noted an immediate in
crease in the demand for train
travel, and bus lines not affect
ed by the walkout were be
sieged with requests lor accom
modations. ... .'
Strike Ordered
The 2700 Pacific Greyhound
drivers and station employes in
California. Oregon. Nevada,
Utah, Arizona, New Mexico and
Texas were ordered on strike at
midnight by the Amalgamated
Association of Street Railway
and Motor Coach Employes of
America (AFL).
Greyhound company officials
here 'estimated the shutdown
would affect 140.000 passengers
daily, half of them military per
sonnel.
Wage Demands
The walkout was called short
ly before the deadline by Rob
ert . Hasselman, the union's
business agent, when last min
ute negotiations with the bus
company and U. S. conciliation
service representatives failed to
bring agreement. Wage increases
ranging from 121 to 30 per cent
are being asked by the union
lor its members.
The stoppage went into effect
without incident Drivers were
under instruction to continue
their runs until midnight and
then proceed to the nearest com
pany depot end "drop the bus."
" On many of the shorter 'inter
city runs, commuters were left
part way home with few other
means of transportation avail
able. Passengers , on longer
routes and transcontinental trips
were put off at the nearest ter
minal. .
Changes Made
Hasselman charged that in fi
lial conferences the company de
manded wage cuts rather than
increases. This was denied by F.
W. Ackerman of San Francisco,
company vice president, who as
serted his firm was wiling to al
low 15 per cent wage boosts and
arbitrate the additional amount
asked.

thin fog, tho famed skyline of
New York emerges, its skyscrap

Building, towering unbelievably.
All over Europe, an eight-story
building is high.
We round a point and the
Lady with the Torch comes into
view. In the distance and in the
early morning haze she is barely

a trace of salty moisture to your

TT'S what she STANDS FOR.
People are FREER in Amer

ica. After weeks in war-wasted
Europe, that knowledge is
burned into your mind like a
brand on a steer's rump. , Noth
ing can EVER remove it.
Never again in your life can
you be in any doubt about it.
That's what brings the catch
in your throat and the salty
moisture at the back of your
eyes.
JUST as you're thrilled to the
point of exaltation, a voice
on the loud speaker instructs
everybody to go at once to the
dining saloon. There, just as

of the Modoc national forest.
The fire started Tuesday
afternoon five miles on south of
Timber mountain near Tionesta
and raced out of control Wed
nesday when strong winds came
up. The Alturas-Klamath Falls
highway was closed for a time
and the quarantine station was
abandoned when the fire jumped
the road for a distance of almost
a mile. Flames by-passed the
station however.
Still Smouldering
The Modoc fire which de
stroyed the community hall and
school house Thursday afternoon
was still smouldering today in
the sawdust pile where the blaze
originated.
Flames were checked before
they could spread to any of the
dwellings in the Modoc Point
community. Men and equip
ment from Klamath Forest Pro
tective association, the county,
Klamath Agency and the Klam
ath Falls Marine Barracks an
swered calls to fight the fire
which broke out a little after
noon when high winds fanned
the sawdust pile fire.
An outbreak of fires in the
Fremont forest area have oc
curred recently as a result of the
influx of deer hunters into the
area.
Small Fires
Small fires have been reported
so far near Cloyer Flat west of
Valley Falls, in the Lakeview
logging area and near the Dicks
ranch on Crooked creek. An
other was reported near Tobin
cabin in the Silver .Lake ranger
district.
Hunters have also discovered
fires near Sycan Butle, at Log
Spring and along the Chewaucan
river near Coffee Pot flat, all
in the Paisley ranger district.
Forest men have again warned
of fire danger because of the
extreme dryness of the woods at
this time. Most of the fires are
attributed to careless smokers
and to abandoned campfires and
warming fires.

the organization is world-wide.
When the war broke out tho Sal
vation Army was already on the
spot at Pearl Harbor.
Local activities of the corps,
however, are not so generally
known, and that is what inter
ests Die people of Klamath Falls
now when they are digging
down for contributions to the
community fund.
Three hundred and U people
received assistance through the
local office of the Salvation
Army lost year through funds
available from the community
fund.
Lodging was supplied 260
nights; 453 meals were served.
400 garments distributed, and
transportation provided for 10
people.
In addition to these benefits,
made possible from the commun
ity fund allotment in 1945, the
Salvation Army maintains an
employment service, assists in
housing problems, finding miss
ing persons, and salvaging used
articles. Annual summer camp
for children at Lake o' the
Woods is sponsored by the corps.
Prison work is carried on; un
wed mothers and their babies
are cared for by negotiations be
tween this office and the White
Shield Home in Portland.
Emergency relief is one of the
main activities of the Salvation
Army and this is one place a per
son can go knowing he will re
ceive aid when he needs it.
A contribution of $5.72 to the
community fund, which is less
than a full day's pay for most
people, would furnish for one
day,, hospital and medical care
for a girl plus hospital and medi
cal care for her infant, as well
as one night's lodging and one
meal for an adult.

disobedience" movement which
involved some 30,000 male and
female students.
Seizing the buildings Tuesday
after President Edclmlro Farrell
ordered them to get out of pol

turn to class, tho students held
the premises for three days
against besieging police.
The movement flared into
open fighting here and at La

and the students yielded and
agreed to evacuate the building
today.
A police ban on gathering or
printing news of the student
movement was rigorously en
forced, cameras were smashed,
negatives confiscated, and photo
graphers were hauled off to jail.
