Atter 7:00 HrculaUon manager, dial Member, Aaaoclatad Preaa Today's Roundup Br MALCOLM EPLEY ELSEWHERE in today's paper will be found a verbatim account of a report made by Dr. Lawrence Riggs on the possible need for a -'Y" center in Klamath Falls. Dr. Riggs,. after a survey, recommends the center, and his report deserves the careful Btudy of all responsible citi zens. We suggest that it be cliprjed from today's paper and' retained for reference as this matter is made the sub ject of widespread community discussion. , Establishment o a "Y center here would mean the ...nntinn nf n rreat deal of responsibility by the people of this community. It would be a local project It would NOT mean , that a national agency wouia .nri An n 1oh for US. It would ;i . community, would undertake a big, im- " portant job for ourselves, paying our own way, ; with a national affiliation bringing the benefit 4; of many years of experience and trained lead- i ership. .. . . . . It is therefore a decision that must be made locally, and if it is an affirmative decision, it f must be followed by a great deal of devoted . i f.nntintiino- indefinitelv mtO' ; wont uu aujjjw. r. the future. . .. ,. We have as a basis for consideration, the study made by Dr. Riggs. We regard his ob servations as apt and accurate, and the plan ; that brought him here for an investigation of . ; this nature was most sound as a first step. His objective observations and conclusions will be , i found most interesting and stimulating; again we urge their careful reading. We are convinced that a "Y" center as envisioned in this report and by the local group now working on the problem would be of vital benefit to the community. But we will have to go the whole way to get those benefits; half-hearted efforts, without full community un- . derstanding and support, will not succeed and ' will not be worth the attempt The question is not merely whether the "V center would be a worthy project It isn't that .7 simple. The question is whether the people of this community are willing to give it the f devotion and support that will make it worthy. We are willing to take Dr. Riggs" word that the ,! "Y" center would fill a need. The people of : Klamath Falls and surrounoings are going io ; have to demonstrate whether they want that ' need filled. w I f Briefs From The Pocket File A service wife acquaintance of ours has two small children who are enthusiastic ' about a neighboring new-born baby, and have importuned their mother to produce a similar innovation in their family.

New Effort H. J. Symington, president of the International Air Transport association (IATA) and a key fig ure at Chicago, where he sought to resolve the differences be. tween the British and American proposals, called for a new ef fort to open the world skies to commerce. In an address delivered at a dinner for the two organizations last night, Symington said blunt ly that since unanimity on air freedoms is not possible, a "strong and reasonable major ity" should join In signing a set of rules for international flying. He declared he was opposed to "bi-lateral bickerings." , Bi-Iateral negotiations agree ment between two countries was the method in general use before the war, and the one the United Stales has used since fail ure of the Chicago conference to 1" ' 1 181 09'- Friendly Helpfulness To Every Creid and Purse Ward's Klamath Funeral Home Marguerite M. Ward and Sons N 125 High Phont 3334 . Tuesday. Oct. II. 1845 News Behind The News Br PAUL. MALLOW WASHINGTON, Oct. 16 Mr. Truman is having more trouble with congress than is apparent. An increasing number of members of both houses are stiffening their backs against the usual political pressures, believing the nation is in a serious crisis. The utmost effort of Senator Floor Leader Berkley was necessary; for instance, to get the CIO-PAC man Raymond McKeough. confirmed for six years on the maritime commission. It was dragged out of the senate by a margin of only eight votes, after considerable inside dick ering. To get it through Barkley had to make it a party matter, and even then nine democrats refused to go along. The opposition frankly questioned the wisdom of putting a CIO official, but even more than that, a man who led the political action part of CIO in three western states, into a position of power over the merchant marine whose unions are recognized as probably the most extreme in the country and all over the objection of AFL. Appeased By Promises MORE democrats privately held this con viction, than voted it These were ap peased by personal promises McKeough would not use his position for CIO-PAC purposes, but his actions on the commission will find close congressional scrutiny from now on. I suspect more than a majority of democrats thought it a mistake to place an outside party man, able to wield such immense political ac tion power in a six-year job. Conversely, the developing administration foreign policy is meeting almost unanimous senate approval. After two-and-a-half hours be hind the doors with State Secretary Byrnes, the foreign relations committee members, both republicans and democrats emerged tn a fav orable mood. Mr. Byrnes knows how to handle senators from long experience and he handled them this time by leaving them convinced he had told them all there was to know about the London conference. What they heard did not contradict anything the public already knows, but the details which Byrnes gave put con vincing emphasis upon the public announce ments of the results. .... Nomination Delayed THIS enabled him to escape the hole he was . in on the Braden appointment. This nom ination of the new ambassador to Argentina has been delayed through several secret ses sions of the committee. Senators felt Byrnes had made a mistake in not consulting the com mittee in . advance, not notifying the other Latin American nations, and that Braden had been too active in earlier Argentinian affairs. Some were angry because the Pan American conference set for October 20, had been post poned to November 20. I judge that Latin affairs got out of Byrnes' hands while he' was busy preparing for London and at the peace conference. Even the Byrnes policy on the Far East found favorable support when he told the senators he was behind General MacArthur without reservation. The tax bill went almost unanimously through the house when the administration, came to terms with the varying viewpoints, 'it will be amended in the senate, but only in details, unless the republicans break loose and demand a less modest cut. The other parts of. the ad ministration program are still facing opposition. .... Truman Loses Ground CONSIDERED all in all, ft is evident Mr. Truman has lost some ground in con gress, but not to any decisive extent yet com parable to the condition into which Mr. Roose velt worked himself. His statement when he returned from his weekend vacation urging the country to go to work conveyed an inspiration which . caught popular favor, although many are waiting to see how he comes out with the strike question. For instance the oil people got their 13 per cent and the opportunity to dicker for the other IS per cent, and' in the settlements it is clear he can yet lose his whole case against inflation. Some murmuring was heard because he went away for his. long planned trip in the middle of the strike crisis, but there is a tendency in congress to Judge him by the results be gets. accept a free exchange of com mercial transport rights. Dr. Edward P. Warner, PICAO president and formerly vice chairman of the civil aeronau. tics board, said the transit agree. ment drawn at Chicago which 20 countries have accepted - tans snort oz tne idea for which bymlngton had made "so vigor ous a plea." But, he added, it "does at least accomplish an enormous reduction in the amount of special negotiation and trading that needs to pre cede the establishment of a new air service or the extension of an old one." The transit agreement Is an exchange of the right to fly over and make non-traffic stops in a country. The type of agreement Symington had in mind would exchange the right to make traf fic stops.

Oantrllxitlena tothnrini theee rule, are warmly wl REPLY TO CRAWFORDS KLAMATH FALLS, Ore., (To the Editor): Have been a sub scriber and reader of your paper for many years. I read with in terest the comment and letters "To the Editor." Recently a num ber of articles signed by Wade Crawford and spouse have ap peared. These I read first with amusement then with boredom and, lastly, with disgust. So far, my personal opinions I have kept to myself, but the letter in Friday's paper was so unjust that I take the pleasure of writing to explain to anyone in tested' just why the Crawfords feel such envy, jealousy, and bitterness toward our superin tendent, B. J. Courtright A number of years ago we be stowed upon Wade Crawford the highest honor and position any one could hold on the reserva tion, that of superintendent. We had faith, and confidence that one of our own people would do everything in his power to be of greatest benefit to the reserva tion. Instead of being the bene factor he seemed to leave noth ing undone that meant a profit to Wade Crawford and Com pany. We found it necessary to sign a petition to have him ousted from the office of superinten dent. No superintendent could ever hold a candle to the Indian superintendent, Wade Crawford, who gave no consideration or courtesy to those who refused to bow to him under his reign as dictator. We have had more than enough of the Crawfords as their uselessness and greed have been shown at the general councils in the past eight years. No names were mentioned by our present superintendent whom we respect and admire, but the cloak seemed to fit the Crawfords and they see fit to wear it. We have given a vote of confi dence to Superintendent Court right for his never falling cour age, help and understanding in the f a c e of all the difficulties presented to him. As for the Indians being on re lief, haven't they always been on relief? At least the Indians have the necessities of life and that is more than some bad under the supervision of Crawford. Speaking of the loan board, what is the purpose of a loan board u it is not to lend even the Crawfords have borrowed when they could show an inten tion of repaying.

Mr. Courtright even attempt to Influence my vote, The craw, fords are the only ones that re sort to trickery to Influence a vote. , Mr. Courtright has no political ambitions, he la not running for office, but he has a job and does it. ir he gives a careful a walcn to the elections and ballot boxes as Crawford says, it only proves the necessity of safeguarding the polls from dishonesty. Some people after eight years of trying to force themselves in to offices of responsibility would realize that they are not wanted. . Very Truly Yours, Dorothea E. Hamilton. 516 Klamath, City. ABOUT DAROLD DIEHL RENO. Nevada (To the Editor) We have lived In Klamath Falls many years and have a lot of friends there. We would like to have them know the latest news received from my son PFC.

We have realized, of course, that Japan has suffered complete de feat, but we are so close to this epochal event that It Is difficult to sense its true Immensity. Nippon has been utterly smashed. Not only that but the has been deprived of her Ill-got gains and thrust back Into her tiny Island kingdom. She now lacks the resources to recover anything approuchlng her for mer position. She has been flunc into the oblivion from which she emerged, almost within the memory of living man. Vacuum In Orient Now that's a (net of trcmon dous Import. It means that a vacuum has been created in the Orient, with the dlsuppenrunce ot this dominant power. It Is In the nature of things that some. thing must rush. in to fill that vacuum. That Is, some other peo ple will in due course take it place. What will It be? Ho would Indeed be gifted with rare vision who could see that now. However, the proba bilities are that for a consider able period the influenco of the Big Ihree America, Russia and Britain will control the situa tion, pending the emergence of the new Asiatic power. China is a logical successor, but it will be long before she could assume the crown, for she is terribly weak in all categories excepting one the magnificent spirit which en abled her to hang on in face of the Jap onslaught. China Ultimate Successor So China Is a logical ultimale successor to the throne, but be fore we accept this as a finality we should stop and asK ourselves whether there is any other Asi atic power which might Inter vene. And we shouldn't let that term "Asiatic" restrict our vis ion, for there's one great power which we have come to regard as European but which also is Asiatic. Sure, that's Russia. The soviet union is extending its influenco methodically In the Asiatic sphere. Japan's defeat is render ing this far easier. This is no time for prophesy as to what will come out of the Oriental melting-pot, but we shall indeed be short-sighted if we don't recognize that Russia may be. the power which will rush into the vacuum created by Japan's elimination. I wouldn't bet a plugged penny against a dollar that this wouldn't happen. As for Nippon, while she has had to surrender her might, she still can achieve a useful and happy life. As MacArthur says, the Japanese "have for the first time seen the free man's may of life in actual action, and it has stunned them Into new thought and new ideas. A revolution or more properly speaking, the evo lution which will restore the dignity and freedom of the com mon man has begun."
