In other countries, such -as China, a depleted treasury already has brought comparative inflation. ; . e Shortage Of Goods WE are not bankrupt and our treasury took In $45,000,000,000 last year.. Ours is an Inflation of prices directly. We have a shortage of goods, all goods, due to war wastes, increased consumption and free distribution of our sup plies around the world. The cost of many things already has doubled since before the war. - Now the unions want a 30 percent wage increase in this time of a goods shortage.

COUNTY COUNCIL ' "Education must move rnntrllv to meet the needs of the atomic age of the future," Arnold Gra lapp, city superintendent of schools, told the assembly of the Klamath Countv Cnnnrll nf PTA's school of instruction. 'Ihe critical teacher shortage may make necessarv suh.olriipe for the education of our future teacners. the suoerintendent ex. plained. The concern of the Parent Teacher association should go beyond bigger and better school bulldincs with im. proved lighting, expanded librar ies, and otner modern facilities as all these will be lost without an expanded teacher develop ment program to match. Mr. Gralapp thought there would be a trend to more suburban living with three grade unit- schools under the Jurisdiction of mother schools. Education must include more . vocational training with Frldsy. Oct. 19. 194S brave new economic world has convinced me that all that is needed to increase prices is an excuse. If a man can sell his goods for an ever in creasing price, he will do it. If he controls a tellers' market such as we have now where people pay anything asked, he would be super human if he did not resist-both the loose government regulations and conscience, it any. But the course of upward wage Jumps and upward price Jumps will run, as soon as the shortage of goods is over, into buyer resent ment. The wage-price inflationary spiral in evitably -must encounter the day when people will not buy. Union Labor Booms INDEED there necessarily must be a day when they cannot pay the price if they would, be cause the wages of no other class have increased as have the wages of union labor. We are get ting to the point where we can see the people will close their pocketbooks and strike or will have to strike in the economic sense, purchas ing only that which is necessary. Then the house will fall down. The spiral will collapse with a thud. Declining demand will cause declining production unemployment depression. From then on the depression can go many ways. The government cannot collect even $35,000,000,000 or a fraction of it from a country in the throes of depression . Declining business brings declining tax receipts. The gov ernment can hardly borrow on top of a $300,000,000,000 war debt for deficit financing to promote another gigantic spending program to save the situation. It would porbably start the printing presses and bring to its final logical conclusion the bankruptcy of the nation, because this is the ', only thing it could do. - Starvation Possible IN this process everyone who has anything of value from a bank account to a bond would lose it or suffer a terrific depreciation of any thing he was able to hold through the crisis. But those who -have nothing of value would suffer more , severely, for it is reasonable to expect the starvation here that every other nation in similar circumstances has encountered. Then would come dictatorial socialism. It would have to be a dictatorship because the world knows no. other, way to handle people who will not- behave of their own accord. It would have to be socialism because this is the common political method today of handling nations in -bankruptcy. ... Inflation, then, is not a vague, vaporous re mote political theory, or, as the unions seem to suspect, a political epithet-stick to beat them out of just wage increases. It can be pictured as a live economic hell-inter which all the people would be condemned. .. ; - , improved health program.

Mrs. H. H. George, president of the Oregon Congress of PTA, gave her interpretation of the aims and ideals of the Parent Teacher association. She ad vised not only further parent education as a means of raising home standards, but stated a need for pre-parent courses in our schools to bring about well balanced homes in the future. ia units may do much to help well organized plan of study courses and projects. A nation al membership of over 3,750,000 is a powerful element for im proved legislation for education, child welfare, improved homes with its voice being heard in world peace plans. Each unit should work to answer the needs of its own community. Loyd Seely, city and county truant officer, explained truan cy problems and the need of parent-teacher cooperation for their solution. He also said that truants do not come from hap py homes. Group chairmanship and offi cer discussions were held in ad dition to the regular assemblv. The large, attendance speaks well for an active PTA year. Mrs. H. H. George, state presi dent was welcomed to Klamath Falls by a breakfast given by Mrs. John Selbv. reelonal vice president.

M. ROBERTS JR. AP Foreign Affairs Analyst The house. committee studying the control of atomic energy was told yesterday that there are two schools of thought on the sub ject, one favor- F " j3". 1 ing production f, ' ends ' and the other wanting more bombs so we can blast the hell out of Russia before Russia blasts the hell out of us." ' First it must be said that the witness. Dr. MacKENZIE Leo Szilard of the University of Chicago, was by no means ad vocating such a policy against Russia, but was bringing into the open what he considered a dangerous attitude. Also, there seems to be as many schools of thought about atomic control as there are thinkers. But the point Is that the scientist consid ered it worthwhile to bring up tne Kussian angle. As a matter of fact, it is ex tremely doubtful if you could find anyone who would advocate use of the atomic bomb against Russia, or anyone else, today or any given day. But it must be admitted that Dr. Szilard was describing a vague current at titude of fear and distrust of Russia which is complicating re lations with our wartime ally. It is an attitude which may as well be looked at for what it is worth. There is. some indication that reluctance to discuss it open ly in the past has heightened its appeal to some people. World Became Afraid Some years ago Russian lead ers were talking about the neces sity for cramming their ideas down the throat of the rest of the world. Except that they established rather tenuous liaison with communist parties in other countries, they did little If any more about it than the capitalist democracies have done and are doing to promulgate their own ideas abroad. But the world became much afraid. Then Russia, with a great war on her outskirts, got the idea that the neighbors who weren't with her were against her, and began occupying strategic ter ritory in Finland, along the Baltic, in the-Balkans and Po land, it was a year or iwo De- fore Cordell Hull's warning to Argentina, Spain and other neutrals that those who did not stand with the United Nations were considered as against them. During and since the war Russia has taken the attitude that, regardless of worldwide peace efforts, she had to first look after spots which might dent of the PTA, and Leora Repp presided at the table, centered by an arrangement of chrysan themums-and wniie tapers.

Whether charge of Imperialism can bo made to stick in this question is at least debatable, just as there have been many debates over America s war wan Mexico, and such Incidents as the occupations ot Nicaragua and Ham. To talk about going to war witn Russia now, because ot cer tain acts which violate the west ern conscience, is to condemn the long view without giving it a cnance. wnen we are inclined to pop off about things that irk us today it is just as well to re member that the Russian attack on Finland in 1939, no mattor how regrettable, took on an en tirely different hue in 1941 when Russia was holding the Germans back from world con quest This Is not an apology for Rus sia. It is just to point out that few nations, like few people. ever are in position to pass ab solute judgments on others; that the Russians are sensitive, still resentful of past Ideological en circlement, and that talk of "blasting hell" out of them can only handicaD sincere oeoDle everywhere in their search for International solutions.
