I Assessed values in the coun ty remain at virtually the level of last year, despite heavy timber cut. Otherwise, the rates would have been itill higher. Property improve ments have helped to sustain the county's over-all assessed values, and the private build 4ne nrocrams now getting ' Underway under post - war EPLEY stimulus will be an important factor in the 'Valuations of future years. The encouragement if prlvete action that will develop and sustain -taxable property values is a matter of vital public significance. Real property is carrying a heavy load. This .is especially true in Oregon, where there has been stubborn resistance to sales tax move ments. Perhaps something constructive in the way of adjustments of tax volume from the various possible sources will come from the Current state tax investigation and possible subsequent legislation. r, ' Meanwhile, it is noteworthy that in Klam ath county, as in a number of other areas, tax rates reflect a sound pay-as-you-go public finan cing policy. This is in contrast with other per iods of development when long-term, interest--bearing obligations were assumed, t: There is a further encouraging feature in that our political subdivisions are getting out f the woods in discharging the obligations as :umed in those other periods. As we go over the hump in meeting these old costs, taxes for 'debt service will decline and this condition will be reflected in current tax rates . Effective AS a civic dinner veteran who has heard many a supercilious transient "tell the yokels all about it," it takes something good smd effective in the way of speech-making to 'win our enthusiasm. We got just that in the address given last night to the Knife and Fork plub by Dr. Vernon Nash, student of history and geography and a former Rhodes scholar, "bis challenging appeal for a competent world authority had the clear-cut ring of sincerity. The theme of Dr. Nash's talk was that with he atomic bomb and all its implications hang ing over our heads, we had better do something 'soon to insure permanent world peace and the "only answer is a permanent world order. He has no faith in the voluntary cooperation of sovereign powers. He went back repeatedly to the formation of the American federal govern Jrnent, and declared that, if that had failed, the ' .continent of North America would today pre sent the picture of chaos found in Europe, g Not all will agree with his prediction that world order of the type he proposed will be functioning by 1950, but Dr. Nash unquestion ably convinced a great many people here last :iiight that it ought to be. Even those who may disagree were unquestionably stimulated by "the challenging aspects of his address, and there "is one suggestion of his that we propose to rpass on to all readers. That is: get a good history of the United : States, and read those chapters dealing with the : formation and ratification of the American con i stitution and the years between that event and i the Revolutionary war.

Palmer was in the hospital at O'Donnell and Cabanatuan prisons, unable to walk for eight months. Palmer plans to return to school, complete his college edu cation, and "learn to live again." He will never forget his long im prisonment, the starvation diet of watery soup and rice, the cruelty and beatings, the death of his comrades. But that's all over now and he is on his way home, and considers himself a "very lucky guy." Hunting Sgt. E. W.

Oct. 22. 1945 By PAUL MALLON WASHINGTON, Oct, 22 The strike situa tion has looked worse from the inside than the way you have been seeing it In dis couraging headline after headline over accounts of vital men being pulled out here and there with great bitterness, mystery and sometimes violence. The Truman administration has been work ing behind its doors the past week trying to get a wage policy upon which to base solutions, but has found it hard to do. Labor Secretary thought wo had one in the oil after the bricks started falling upon his head for mat one, he crawled out of the pile with an aching head, aware, no doubt, mistake. you give the men a 15 per cent then grant them the right to negotiate or arbitrate for another 15 per cent, you have not solved much. Another strike for the remaining 15 per cent could be called at any time. Furthermore such a temporising sur render was generally labeled unfair. An em not win anything, even the right THEN some show was made by Mr. Truman of prolonging the war labor board after blanketing it into the labor department under Schwellenbach. This was what a pugilist would hard pass at the empty air, as anything was concerned. WLB men had tremendous power and prestige dur ing the war, but lost it when Mr. Truman gave top-say to Schwellenbach. It is now beyond redemption . Both AFL and industry were opposed to it, and still are, because it has functioned largely as a CIO weapon. Through it, the Murray Hillman crowd had a nice thing going. They would back up the board when they liked its decisions, and strike when they did not. Here again they could not lose. The latest administration resuscitation was planned by Mr. Truman and Schwellenbach with their heads together alone, and Board Chairman Garrison indicated they would stay on until January 1. Industry and AFL wanted to get them out of town immediately. The resuscitation will get them out of town In a few weeks. That was all that amounted to and the ques tion thus arises whether any new board would be a paper front for the same old proposition. Thus the government has been crowded on all the fronts it erected toward establishing a workable wage policy to carry the current interim until labor and management can get together in the big conference, now set for November 10. The inside of that conference would make a column In itself. It should have been held before any of these strikes developed, and was scheduled originally for October, but the labor leaders had to go off to Europe to save the world first. Labor-Power Bellows THEN the arrangers for the conference gave the great labor-power bellows, John L. Lewis,' only one delegate and one vote in this national meeting of industry and labor. Not only this, they imposed upon him an under standing reached among themselves that his solitary delegate could not be on any commit tees. .. . i ' ' ....... The telephone workers, who tied up all com munications in the country one day recently Just to "test their strength," were at first eager to join the conference, and asked for a place. Later they said they would not participate. Naturally then, the questions has arisen as to how effective the proposed conference can be. The accumulation of all these inside facts points directly toward continued difficulties but difficulties may be better than a bad set tlement which settles nothing. The administration seems to me to be play ing on the assumption that the longer the ques tion is held open, the better will be the chance of reaching a stabilizing solution. Certainly no former settlement, made in the years of the Roosevelt administration, solved anything. Those were only surrenders to union leader ship, made in such a way as to promise another surrender the next time the leaders wanted to start another crisis.

Untold mil lions of dollars have been sunk by the concessioners in the de velopment of the oil fields some of them in the midst of dense jungles and others in the region of Lake Maracaibo, a huge body of water in the northwest corner of the country. Great numbers of wells have been sunk even in the bottom of Maracaibo in fifty feet of water. There is a comparatively iew field In the tropical Orinoco valley, where United States companies have leased over 3, 000 square miles of territory. Another amazing American pro ject which I have visited Is the Carlplto field in the eastern part of the country. This Is burled in the heart of a dense jungle. There are many points about the revolution still to be clari fied. The main Issue, one judges, lay in the charge by the revolu tionists that the now deposed president Isaas Medina i An garita was scheming to estab lish a dictatorship.
