Today's Roundup
BY MALCOLM EPLEY
THIS is national safety week, and we would
be remiss in our duty If we did not do a
i little plugging in this department for caution
and the other preventive meas
ures which can reduce the
'tragedy and economic loss of
'accidents of all kinds,
r The Klamath county coron
ler's report for 1944 showed
,30 deaths resulting from acci
dents. Add to these fatal mis
thaps the hundreds of other
accidents w,hich did not bring
death but sent people to hos
pitals and doctor's offices,
tcaused damage to property
and loss of working time, and : EPLEY
jwe have a tremendous toll. "
Last year was a war year, and for various
.'reasons the accident hazard was not as great
jas in normal peace-time years. We are now
jf going back into an era of higher travel speeds,
'even though reconversion has not progressed
(to the point where we can have new, safe
1 equipment in which to do that speeding. If
J recklessness and Irresponsibility attend this re
I turn to peacetime travel conditions, the traffic
J accident toll for the next year will break all
records.
Industrial Mishaps
THERE is greater news Interest in traffic
accidents than in industrial mishaps, and
for that reason not enough public attention Is
given to the great dangers that exist elsewhere
than on' the highways. Nationally, worker
i deaths In 1944 hit a total of 42,500, with an-
other 4,150,000 workers Injured in less severe
accidents. The cost to industrial production was
) estimated by the National Safety council as
400,000,000 lost manhours during the year.
This may surprize you. Falls caused the
J greatest number of deaths of any one type In
j 1944.' About 26,000' Americans died from this
cause. Motor vehicle deaths were reported
j nationally at 24,300,While burns caused 10,600 -fatalities.

News Behind The News
J BY PAUL MALLON
! AASHINGTON, Oct. 25 Mixed lnterpreta
J YY tions followed the French election in
which Da Gaulle won a victory for socialism
'and democratic reorganization while .the com
J munlsts won a plurality of the assembly.
I The analyses we are being furnished are
5 about as confused as if the communists were
to win a plurality in our congress against our
(democrat and republican combined majority,
J turned socialist (if you can Imagine this). No
i prognosticator could be sure of what would
J happen then. We would be forced to await
t developments.
J Reserved pleasure nevertheless is noticeable
there among those who know the French situa
tion Intimately. The popular republican move
ment (141 assembly seats) is largely representa
tive of church sentiment in France and will
Get Into Politics
IE also advised Italian women to get into
politics, no doubt appreciating their pri
mary interest in the home and the reliance of
their lives upon the finer non-political phases
of life, which makes them less easy prey for
communistic capture.
The French socialist party, (142 seats) which
won second place in the assembly, has about
the same ideology as the popular republican
movement, without the church. Its absorption
of a group called "Union of Republican Demo
cratic Socialists" shows about what it is.
These two parties, . if combined, easily can
run the government, with their joint total of
283 seats against the communist 152. In fact,
if you count in the minor parties below these
big three, who are likely to work with De
Gaulle, a possible democratic socialist majority
of about two to one can be found.
This prospect no doubt explains the excessive
silence of the communists since their "victory."
.Their French party operates about like ours, on
wires from Moscow. Authorities here have not
discovered that Moscow threw any gold into
the election campaign, although money has
proved useful in French politics of the past
Communists Have Control
THE communists have control of the French
labor leaders, however, and may not have
thought they needed to use money otherwise.
Their assembly plurality was gained exclusive
ly from factory districts. But the farm districts
being church, and the white collar classes
largely democratic socialists, a clear majority
of French interests seem assuredly fortified to
meet the future communist campaign to capture
France. '
The communists, unquestionably, feel they
are just beginning .They have increased their
power from 47 seats they held before the war
by three times now.- They are in a position to
harass and impede a coalition socialist govern
ment with their usual pressure politics, strikes
and such action, in anticipation of the day when
they will take over the democratic processes,
abolish the assembly and operate strictly total
tarian in accord with Moscow doctrine.
Aeainst that hope, however, is erected the
election co-result crushing the old radical social
ist party of corrupt politicians with whom .they
played ball on the inside.
That party ruled the old France. It connived
rather openly with Moscow on international
affairs, made separate friendship treaties, and
internally met the terms of the communist
dominated labor leaders in all economic essen-
'. tials,. letting them run the country down (sit-
, down strikes, 30-hour weeks and similar steps
' destroying production . to the point where the
.French nation was no match for the Germans).
. 'The communists " thus only have enhanced
i their nuisance power in France if that. Actual
' ly they have now- come out in the open. Their
' own secret internal destruction technique can-
not ,work so well when they must assume
. public responsibility for their actions.
They have lost their cover-front, and some
how communism never has stood as well on its
own feet anywhere. -When required to come
into the open, a- destructive' technique cannot
be defended. Therefore I suspect their political
position in France today may prove less power
ful than it was before the war. -
,.- .
France Going Socialist . ' '
MY deduction naturally implies France is
going socialist There are only two
popular courses for European bankrupts. One
is democratic socialism to handle the receiver
ship; the other a dictatorship by either fascist
socialism or communist socialism. In dictator
ship liberty dies. In democratic socialism, hope
at least is not extinguished.
Of course socialism does not have the inspir
ing, creative self-generating accelerations of our
democratic capitalism in its makeup, but if it
handles its receiverships well, it may aspire
to return to profit incentive systems of free
democratic capitalism,
A Churchill syllogism in parliament express
ed more succinctly the idea you may have
read frequently in this spot In the past:
"The trouble of capitalism is it does not
equally distribute its blessings.
"The trouble with socialism is it does equally
distribute its poverty."

More than incidentally, Secre

also made it emphatically clear
during a press conference that
Washington objects to tho use of
lend-lease arms for political pur
poses as they have been em
ployed by British and Dutch
forces in the Far East. Washing
ton requested the British and
Dutch to remove American em
blems from lend-lease equipment
used against the insurgents, and
this brought prompt word from
a foreign office spokesman in
London that the British com
mander In Java had been in
