Campaign Chairman Klamath Community Fund
THE Community Fund solicitation is coming
along slowly but surely. OI the total quota of
$75,130.00 there has been received $23,507.26,
which probably represents the easiest portion
to obtain since many of the large contributions
of $100.00 to $1,000.00 have been received.
Since many of our citizens do not realize the
scope and value of this work it is advisable to
show the allocation of funds as follows:
National War Chest $28,488.02
Includes aid to:
. U. S. O. $15,366.13
Our servicemen
Low Countries
Philippines 4: China
Miscellaneous
Oregon Agencies
Boys and Girls Aid Societies
Children's Bureau
Children's Farm Home
Oregon Protective Society
Waverly Baby Home
Oregon Mental Hygiene Society ' ;.
Some miscellaneous -Klamath
Community Fund (Local
Agencies) t $37,418.00
2,311.75
6,141.66
3,392.57
1,275.91
$ 9,223.98
... $75,130.00
The war is over, but assistance fo our boys
in the service, until they can be discharged, is
just as essential as ever. In fact the boys need
more entertainment now, when they have little
to do, than when they were fighting forward
to defeat our enemies. Our allies need our
generous help, at least to the extent to prevent
starving or freezing. One. Klamath citizen .
when approached for a donation said he didn't '
think he could afford ten dollars but would "
think-it over. Two days 'later he told the ;
solicitor that he had just received the first '
letter in six years from a -relative in Europe V
and learned that his sister-in-law. had been1,
killed by the Nazis, and his brother had been
In a concentration camp, and that, first the
American Army and then the war chest agencies
had given much relief, so that he was pleased
to give fifty dollars and wished that he could
give more.
Excellent Help Received
THE Oregon Charities take care of the more
unfortunate of the citizens of the state,
most of whom are babies or youths. Since un
fortunates of our county receive excellent help .
from these charities we must 'do our-share to
defray the expense. ; :
Our own Klamath youth organizations are
doing excellent .work giving training to our
boys along lines that are supplemental to that'
which they receive at home, in school and at
church. Aside from training in craft work and
athletics, our youths are being taught in these
organizations to be honest, respectful, generous
and helpful. How different this training is to
that given the Hitler Youth namely to hate,
steal, enslave and to kill for the benefit of
Hitler and the Nazis.
It requires a very extensive organization to
put on a solicitation campaign such as this one,
and since this is only the second year for the
Klamath Community Fund we are not nearly -as
well organized nor as completely as we will
be in future years. The work has been broken
down into departments, each with a chairman
who appoints a group of captains, each of whom.
armoints ten or mnr cnltt-irrtra Tha 1m -J
partment to go into . action was the "Special
Gifts Committee," who under the leadership of
Andy M. Collier, sent out letters to each of 200
individuals and firms in and near Klamath
Falls, and to each of 60 persons or. firms in
the outlying towns and rural districts, asking
for from $100.00 to $1,000.00. .
Other business concerns in and near Klamath
Falls are being solicited by a very large group
of captains' and workers under Chairman Ken
Klahn. This group also handles the solicitation
of employees where the total is less than 25 in
one concern. Joe Hicks is chairman of the
group to contact the employees of all concerns
in the county, except the two railroads, who
have more than 25 on the payrolls. A. F.
Condrey is head of the workers to see the em
ployees of the Southern Pacific company and
Frank Sexton is in charge of solicitation of
Great Northern employees. Arnold L. Gralapp
is in charge of the work in the city schools and
Clarence A. Humble will solicit the various or
ganizations. Fred Peterson accepted the ap
pointment to head the campaign in the out
lying towns and rural districts. The publicity
is being handled by George F. Conner,
e e a e
Citizens Do Fair Share
MOST of our citizens, when they realize the
benefits to humanity that result from this
fund, arc pleased to do their fair share in donat
ing for the cause, some contributors even give
more than asked for. It is impossible for our
solicitors to see everyone or to even paint a
complete picture of the great benefits of this
cause, even though there are hundreds working
on this solicitation throughout the county.
If you have not been contacted by a solicitor
or if you desire to Increase your contribution
please mail your check to Klamath Community
Fund, 323 Main St., Klamath Falls. It will be
greatly appreciated.
News Behind The News
By PAUL MALLON
WASHINGTON, Oct, 11 Mr. Truman
promptly crushed the promotional cam
paign to give away the atom bomb. He sum
moned a hasty night press conference to say
the secret would not be shared. A few hours
earlier an American scientist had given scare
testimony to congress which meant Russia
might get the secret "in ten years" and then
press a button and destroy every American
man, woman and child (apparently only up to
the border, no Canadians or Mexicans.) Scient
ists are presumed to know science, but are
notoriously weak on other matters including
politics, international diplomacy and warfare.
It is an exceptional scientist who speaks wis
dom outside his province.
e e a .
Congressmen Wondered
CONGRESSMEN wondered but did not learn
what we would be doing in 10 years, what
our science would find in the way of answers
and defenses for the atomic bomb which might
make it safe to give the secret then to the
world, or how a scientist could figure Russia
would press the button in ten years but would
not do it now if let in on the secret. My private
checking indicates congress is overwhelmingly
favorable to the stand Mr. Truman took as the
only reasonable, sensible course.
, The realization is sweeping over the city that
we are indeed a new world and need to de
velop new sound conceptions of our problems,
There is first the problem of defense, of honor
able peace maintenance, in this new world.
The newspapers and magazines have published
photographs, with nations and seas pulled out of
their normal geographical shape to show we
are in that kind of a world now. But our
. thinking has not fully grasped the fact. De
velopments have not occurred which would per
mit our people and indeed many of our gov
ernment off icials to see it plainly, so .that thoy
would act upon it firmly.
Frontier On Rhine
k JR. ROOSEVELT once shocked the country
I VI by saying our frontier was on the Rhine.
Do you know where it is now? It is Min
neapolis, Duluth, the Great Lakes dues. It is
beyond them in the wastes of Canada, the
frozen north. Take a round globe, set it on
the floor and look at it while standing over it.
If we want to build our new air-forts of defense,
there is where they must be.
y There are only two nations In the world
with military wherewithal, Russia and the
United States and the frontier between them is
the territory described above. Marines used to
speak of the great circle route across the North
Atlantic as the greatest international highway
of the world, and it was before this war. The
new great circle route coming in from Europe
to the midwest is now the world's greatest
highway, and it is a high way. lUruns up to
30,000 and 40,000 feet in the stratosphere.
Land armies of the future can be flown that
way as well as great commerce and many peo
ple. Directed missiles can come that way
the rockets. If the button is ever pushed in
Moscow, what it sends off to "destroy every
American man, woman andaachild" would come
that way. Our nets and screens must then be
put out that way. Our radar must be beamed
there. We ourselves must look that way, and
not across the seas where the route is twice as
far and nature affords protection.
a a a
Attack Is Defense
A S attack is a weapon of defense, our stra-
tegy would be deficient and as backward
as Pearl Harbor if it did not look that way
also. '
Old times, old ways are gone forever. We
need fresh imaginative unbound brains to work
on these problems of defense, particularly a
single department of the armed forces, if only
to shake off the traditions of the past and
shock our military men into making their best
efforts.: Our scientists must show the same
unbound imagination in their realm of search
for the answers in the new world research.
' Now do not call this new great road the
highway of tomorrow. It is the highway of to
day, y'f We are already at that point. We are
there. We can see it. We can see it far more
clearly than the future of the atomic era, yet
unexplored.
It may be a long way from the road to
Damascus, but there it is.

LOOKIN' ON i
PELICAN CITY, (To the Edi
tor) One evening as I came out
of the post office, I heard a ter
rible screeching of car brakes.
Looking south, expecting in
stantly to hear the crash of col
liding cars, I witnessed an inter
esting scene.
I saw a car driven by a soldier
careening crazily on the wrong
side of the street. Another car,
coming from the opposite direc
tion, just missed the soldier's
car. The soldier, with almost
superhuman reflex action, man
aged to keep out of the way of
the on-coming car, and to miss
the pet dog belonging to a boy
riding a bicycle. The dog had
taken a little more of the street
than the boy possessed. The boy
had about half of the pavement.
The most surprising feature
of the drama was the fact that
the boy did not even bother to
look around - at the struggling
cars. . He was a well-dressed fel
low, about 13 years of age, and
would have looked normally in
telligent had he been on his own
side of the busy street and with
out the dog.
After the boy had happily zig
zagged his way out of sight, and
the faithful dog had managed to
follow the inviting calls and
whistles of his master, and the
kindly soldier and worried civil
ian had extracted their cars and
gone on about their business of
dodging more children on "bi
cycles with their dogs, I sat
down upon the post office steps
and did some pondering.
I wondered what the boy's
parents and other teachers were
doing at the time of the near-ac- j
cident. And I thought, "Wouldn't i f j
it have been sad if after braving e
the dangers and horrors of sub
marine and enemy plane war
fare in the South Pacific, our sol
dier had met his end at home
trying to keep from hitting a pet
dog and a boy on his bicycle, a
boy, who had not been taught to
know that his chief duty as a
loyal American citizen is to help
protect his own life and the lives
of other people."

The
War Today
By DtWITT MACKENZIE
Associated Prtu War Analyst
M
MacKENZIE
There are several highly im
portant Implications in Secre
tary of State Byrnes' announce
ment Unit the United States has
called a meet
ing of the pro
posed Far
Eastern advi
sory commis
sion for Octo
ber 23 in
Washington,
Foremost
among these Is
the clear indi
cation that
Uncle Sam has
his chin up
(but not out)
and is standing on his preroga
tives in the matter of Japan's
reformation and rehabilitation.
Along with this he Is backing up
his good and faithful servant,
Supreme Commander MacAr
thur. Equally important is
America's desire for advice from
her allies in working out the
Japanese problem. And last but
not least, there are great poten
tialities in the possibility that
India may be invited to Join the
advisory commission.
Vott of Confidence
Mr. Byrnes has given MacAr
thur a mighty fino vote of confi
dence. It would have coma as a
shock to the average citizen it
the secretary had said other than
that the government has no in
tention of altering MacArthur's
status as supreme commander in
Japan. It would have been sur
prising too, if Byrnes hadn't con
fessed that he doesn't know of
any complaints about the way
the general has been doing his
Job.
MocArthur wa assigned one
of the most delicate and danger
ous of the post-wop tasks. If tniy
body could work faster than ho
hits In (Unarming close to 8,000,
000 Jau troops with handful of
Yank, and gaining control of
80,000,000 oven to making the
Mikado wait on him, hat In hand
It would bo a privilege to meet
him.
Mr. Byrnes' remarks about
MacArthur camo in connection
with Russia's suggestion that thu
CHtubllshiuvnt of a control coun
cil for Japan should precede ilio
creation of the atlvlxory commis
sion, Ho doesn't favor such a
movo, since it obviously would
mean either replacing the gen
eral or lowering his (tutus as su
premo commander.
Tho Idea of inviting India to
Join the advisory conimlukm Is
of far-reaching importance. Nine
nations already have been Invit
ed to Join with America In the
Washington meeting Russia,
Brituln, China, Franco, Canada,
Australia, The Netherlands, New
Zealand and the Philippines.
Enulund has suggested that India
be Included. The United States
has agreed and has passed tho
suggestion on to Russia and
China for their decisions.
The raising of India's name
has a double significance. In tho
first place 1 believe we can tuko
It as an especially friendly ges
ture towards this great British
possession by England's new so
cialist government. One of tho
main planks in the government's
platform Is to do all posslblo to
implement Britain's promise of
dominion status for India, and
the London cabinet already has
started work on this program.
So ono likes to look on the pro
posal regarding the. advisory
commission as tho rainbow of
great promise for India's future.
1 visited India during the war,
and know that it was her ambi
tion to secure at least a provi
sional government which would
enable her to take her place
among the United Nations as
an ally in her own right. She

have this rank In her own name,
