Today's Roundup
By MALCOLM EPLEY
(Who Is No Volcanologlit)
WILL pictures of Crater lake at some future
date show a second island jutting up
through the blue water, as does Witard island.
in the laminar current photo
graphs of Klamath county's
world-famous scenic attrac
tion? There is just a bare chance
that the strange occurrences
that have been reported re
cently from Crater lake may
be evidences of activity that
will construct another cone
such as that which is unique
Wizard island.
It is a generally accepted
theory that Wizard island was
pushed up to its present size by volcanic activ
ity subsequent to that which collapsed the top
of Mt. Mazama and formed the caldera which
partially filled with water and became Crater
lake .
It happened once, and there is some opinion
among men familiar with the Volcanic history
of Crater lake that it may be happening again.
a a , .
Muddy Water
PARTICULARLY significant to this theory is
the report by Just Trippett, Klamath Falls,
who on a recent Sunday saw what he believed
to be a mass ol material on the surface of the
water of the lake. He described a huge shadow
in the water in the shape of a crescent, with
definitely "muddy" section at one tip. . Later,
this material appeared to disintegrate.
, That observation checks nicely with the sug
gestion that there is volcanic activity in the
bottom of the lake spewing up material 'that
little by little will form a cone- that could con-,
ceivably protrude above the water as does
Wizard island. The strange clouds reportedly-,
seen just above the water by a number of :
persons in the past few weeks are considered
as further evidence, but not so clearly ex
plainable, of such activity.
Crater lake park officials are considering
the possibility of making soundings next season
which may determine whether any changes are
occurring in the floor of the mysterious lake.
The character of the lake floor is now well
established by soundings, and careful investiga
tions should show whether anything unusual
is happening down there.
Fascinating
THIS is all tremendously fascinating.
We confess that the first reports of un
, usual clouds of gas, steam, or dust over the
lake water left us skeptical, and it is entirely
possible that what has been seen is of no great
significance. On the other hand, there have
been repeated' observations of similar phe
nomena by responsible people, and it does seem
that something unusual is going on. Making
allowances for the fact that sometimes when
somebody sees and reports something unusual,
others begin .to see .things too the false Jap
balloon reports are a recent illustration it
certainly appears that our famous Klamath
county lake will bear watching for possible
Interesting developments.
,.
Another Report
TODAY, for instance, we have a letter from
Mrs. Pale Stoops, Box 431, Klamath Falls,
adding to the bits of evidence that have been
mounting in recent weeks. We'll top off this
layman's discussion with Mrs. Stoops' letter,
adding that we will' be most pleased to receive .
further information of a similar nature. Here
it is:
To the Editor:
Last month my husband and I visited my
mother, Mrs. Grace Coski of 2931 Bristol Ave.
While there we drove to Crater lake. That was
on September 18.
It was a beautiful day with no wind and
not a cloud in the sky. We took the rim drive
and. stopped at all the view points and looked
at the lake. At about two-thirty or- three I
was sure I saw a boat on the lake and asked my
husband to stop the car. We had been watching
the lake all the time and a few -seconds before
there had been nothing on the lake. My hus
band stopped the car immediately and we all
got out and looked. What we saw was a
funnel shaped cloud very close to the water.
The cloud was snowy white and stayed for
quite some time but gradually drifted away.
We could very easily have taken a picture
of it if we had had a camera, but we never gave
it much thought. There were two planes flying
over at the time and we thought maybe they
dropped something that had caused it.
My mother, younger sister and brother can
all verify this letter as they saw it too,
I don't know which vantage point Cloudcap
is but we were on the east side looking toward
Wizard island and I believe it must have been
in the same spot that the ladies from Fort
Klamath described.
Sincerely,
MRS. DALE STOOPS.
News Behind The News
By PAUL MALLON
WASHINGTON, Oct. 31 The Moscow dis
patches said Mr. Truman's declaration ot
tho new American foreign policy heartened
Moscow.
But no heartening and no change was im
mediately evident in Moscow's actions. The
very same day the Russian delegation walked
out of the United Nations food conference in
Quebec, and in newspaper columns parallel to
those reporting the heartening were stories of
the communists unleashing their army ot a
million men upon China in civil war.
A break in the stalemated condition had been
hopefully promised between the lines of some
comment from the past few days since Am
bassador Gromynko's visit brought Truman and
Stalin into correspondence.. The grapevine here
has been reporting Russia is loosening up, that
Stalin went away for that month to think things
over and decided the Russian tactics at London,
which broke up the peace conference, should
be moderated.
Russia Coming In
ENTHUSIASTS with large ears to very small
spots of ground here have heard Russia
is coming wholeheartedly into the world or
ganization. These hopes have not reached print
in any formidable way, but they are present
behind the renewed negotiations.
Simultaneously an old note has crqpt back
into the dispatches from Moscow. A very fam
ous writer for a large American newspaper
lectured Americans, when he announced Mr,
Truman had "heartened" the Russians. He
said we must realize Stalin is suspicious of us.
This note has been taken up by other com
mentators, who say the whole problem now is
whether this government can appease the sus
picions, of Russia.
When this note comes into any discussions, I
go out This is the basis by which Russia
'never lost a point in dealing with Mr. Roosevelt.
There are no valid grounds for Russian sus
picions of any nation right now, and everyone
realizes this, including Stalin. The thought of
attacking Russia does not exist anywhere in
the American mind. A fear of Russia is pres
ent in this country, but it is not an offensive
fear (in the military or diplomatic meaning of
offensive). We all know this.
So when they start that old stuff and non
sense, it can only suggest propaganda is being
laid for appeasement again. Consequently gen
uine hopes for sound settlement may not prove
justified even if one is announced.
a a
Russian Walkout
THE Russian walkout from Quebec, for-Instance,
was predicated upon something
more tangible and obvious than illfounded
suspicions. This was a conference of the na
tions to promote food, production throughout
the world and make people eat more of It
an ideal which should be right down the Rus
sian alley if she needs the' help from us she
has been requesting. Her delegates to that con
ference demanded representation there for an
extraneous organization which has nothing to
do with food--the world trade unions federa
tion. This WTUF is the international labor organi
zation which our CIO's Hillman bit on, with
results similar to the mastication of a green
persimmon. He went to Paris for its conven
tion a few weeks back only to find the Russians
in charge of the convention bringing in a re
port allowing them voting strength for 27.
000,000 union workers, while Hillman and the
British were allowed a small fraction.
- The British could not accept such a swallow
ing of the international interests of their unions.
A compromise was worked out, which gave the
Russians only about 80 per cent domination of
WTUF instead of 80 per cent.
The reds even got representation for unions
in Romania (which they occupy) although the
British laborite Sir Walter Citrine publicly
said he had never heard of a union in Romania.
Russia also showed control for French and
Mexican labor.
Excuse For Withdrawal
NATURALLY the' food conference could not
incongruously seat these people, as the
Russians well knew. The raising of such an
issue could only have been an excuse for with
drawal. ' ,
Similarly before the ink was dry on the'
Asiatic peace treaties by which the Russians
agreed to withdraw frpm Asia and keep their
Chinese communists quiet, the commies started
a civil war. Not only this, but Moscow reared
and demanded ouster of Gen. MacArthur and a
joint hand in administering Japan. She had
been in that war 25 days (which, incidentally
she entered in violation of her treaty with
Japan).
On the plain face of events, there seems
good ground for suspicions but can these be
cleared by appeasement? It is singularly clear
that they must be dispelled by actions from
Moscow, restoring valid basis for confidence.

INDIAN MATTERS
' Editor's Note: With a reserva
tion election coming up Thurs
day, and a number of important
matters of policy and legislation
agitating members of tho Klam
ath tribes, this newspaper has
received several letters having
to do with Indian business and
personalities.
To clear the file, we are run
ning today excerpts Trom two
letters received this week, and
will ask that letters hereafter
concerning these matters be con
fined to principles and Issues,
rather than personalities:
CHILOQUIN, Ore. (To the
Editor) Several articles have
appeared in your "Telling the
Editor" columns tolling of some
of the things David Wade Craw
ford did in the past, especially
when D. W, Crawford was su
perintendent here et Klamath
Agency, Ore., and what he is
doing now: the sacrifice he is
making In time and money; that
Crawford is the long-looked-for
Mesiah of the Klamath Indians,
but they omitted some of the
most important parts of what D.
W. Crawford did. Moreover, I
am informed that D. W. Craw
ford wrote the article that San
dy Miller signed, which I strong
ly believe because ot the fact
that Sandy Miller is only about
20 years old' now, and was in
knee pants about the time D. W.
Crawford was superintendent
here.
With regard to Dibbon Cook's
article, I am sure he cannot be
sincere in what he says but is
ill-edvised and ignorant of the
facts surrounding the activities
that have characterlied Craw
ford's activities in the past and
which are too numerous to state
in one publication. If it is the
purpose to show wnat Crawford
did, let's show all, so that the
Klamath Indians will all know
about it, especially tho younger
pcoplo whom Crawford is tell
ing what he did when ho was
superintendent, as the older
ones know. Here are some of
tho facts:
David Wade Crawford was a
dclcgato of the Klamath Indians
when he got himself appointed
superintendent and took over
the job in 1833. (3) Ho was op
posed to the Indluns having u
voice In tho timber sales, saying
that the Klamath Indians were
not Intelligent enouHh. (3) That
80 per cent of tho Klamath In
dians wore Infected with venere
al disease, (4) Ho could not trust
t h a Klamuth Indians with
money so he gave them pur
chase orders, most of thorn on
Glcnger's store in Chlloquln.
(S) In 1834 he wanted the In
dians to a a o e p t the Wheeler
Howard bill which the Indians
rejected by a vote of 7 to 1, (8)
Crawford tied up tho children's
funds to spite some of the In
dians he did not like, which was
a source of continuous trouble
to Crawford's administration
and which he is trying to undo
now, (7) Crawford was dismissed
with prejudice April 28, 1837,
He went to Washington, D, C,
to get the prejudice removed,
but failed. Crawford failed as
superintendent.
Very respectfully,
CLAYTON KIRK.
KLAMATH FALLS, Ore. (To
the Editor) Pleased to know
that one of such tender years
as Sandy Miller Is so well versed
In Indian affairs. You were
about 8 years old whon the Hon
orable Wade Crawford first
filaced his feet upon the super
ntendent's desk and smoked his
first good cigar. Whon ho was
ousted four years later, you
were about 12 Now between 18
or 20, you know all the an
swers. For your own sake. If politi
cally inclined, or with ambitions
or Decoming a great tiocxmun,
study under a different tutor
than Crawford. It will pay in
the long run.

defense letter of October 23, was

Despite the sadden stopping of war work,
employment at General Electric has
declined less than 10 per cent overall- Rehiring
is already under way, and it is expected that
mora people will be employed within six to
eight months than were employed during the
biggest prewar years.
What G-E people are making is shown, in
part, by the list below. This list of things you
and your family have wanted for many months
shows the progress General Electric has made
in swinging back to its regular job of making
'More Goods for More People at Less Cost."
General Electric Company, Schenectady, New
York.
Alarm Clocks. In January, 1944, WFB okayed mak
ing some electric alarm docks. Within seven weeks,
G. E. was in production.
Turbine. Full schedule peacetime production of steam
turbines, source of two-thirds of the nation's electric
power and tbe driving power for most of our fighting and
merchant fleets, is expected to be reached by December.
Irons. In June,; 1944, came authorization to make
electric irons. In three months, G Jl. was shipping irons.
Today's rate is higher than 1941;
Motors. Ten million were built for war many of
special types and sizes. Now G-E lines are being quickly
converted to production of standard types for washing
machines, refrigerators, etc
Refrigerators. After getting green light from WFB
in June, 1945, G.E. was in production in eight weeks.
Transformers. Upwards of 70 imall transformers
were required for a single B-29 Superfortress. Now G-E
facilities are turning them out again to help make elec
tricity more useful to you.
Washers. Ten weeks from WPB go-ahead, G-E
washer line started rolling in Bridgeport on August 24,
1945. Already they're being turned out at 47 per cent of
G.E.'s prewar rate.
Street Lights and Flood Lights. Facilities that
turned out mobile anti-aircraft searchlights for tbe
Army, and thouwwida of signaling searchlights for the
Navy, are now producing flood lights for sporto and
industry, and street lights to reduce the nation's night
trafllotoU.
wm
Radios. G-E radios will be back on the market fbr
Christmas. Table model will be in dealers' stores in
November. By Christmas, 12 models should be In stores,
including AC-DC battery portables, radio phonograph
console. Television and KM will go into production
after the first of the year.
Horn Construction Materials. Wirt, cable, fluor
escent lampholders, etc., formerly for Army and Navy
use, are now in production for your new home.
Ranges. Manufacture began on the first G-E electric
ranges September 9, 1945. Three day later th first
shipment was made.
Plastics Production. The plastics facilities of Goners!
Electric, largest manufacturer of finished plastic prod- '
nets in the country, have been turned to molding
camera, clock and refrigerator porta, toaster and coffee
maker bandies, caster wheels and wiring dovioes, radio
cabinets, fluorescent boson, coemotio Jars and covora,
industrial and decorative laminated materials, lighting
reflectors and shades. .
Water Coolers. Production at G.E. will equal pre
war rate in Novombor.
Automatic Heating. G.E. in January will havo oD
flred boilers, conversion oil humors, gas-fired boilers,
gas-fired warm air conditioners, all coming off the lines
where radar, gunfire and 'aviation equipment was
produced.
Farm Freezers. Will be ready in 1947.
Air Conditioners. One model of room nlr conditioner
will be ready in limited numbers for your noxi summor's
needs. First "store cooler" was shipped the day after
V-J Day. More dally.
Radar. The G-E Electronic Navigator, to mnko ship
navigation safer in fog and dark, and to speed shipping
schedules, has been tested by many months of actual
operation and will soon be available
Exposure Meters. The now G-E exposure motor for
amateur and professional photographora is in produc
tion. Present rato is several thousand a week.
Lamps. During the war, the Lamp Dopartmont did
th double task of supplying both military and civilian
needs. Now available once more, but in limited quanti
ties, are such wor-discontinuod typos as: 60- and 76-watt
inside frost lamps, 50-100-150-watt medium bam lamps,
flame-shaped lamps, round decorative lamps, fluorescent
lamps, lumlllne lamps. Christmas tree lights nro in pro
duction but will be quite limited this holiday season:
