Cross-Town
Plan Favored
(Continued from Page One)
streets are not adversely affect
ed. He said that certain other
communities of the state, not
ably' Coos Bay, had asked the
commission to establish one-way
streets to care for a problem
similar to here.
Nelson Reed said that he
owned a business for a tune lo
cated on a one-way street in
Medford, and it was found to be
more advantageous than a two
way street.
R. C. Dale said he felt that
Plan No. 1 would be to the
greatest advantage to the city.
and that he believes the one
way system would be beneficial.
He made a motion that the
group present, as individuals
make an expression in favor of
this plan. The motion was sec
onded by jonn .Houston and
carried.
Improve Traffic
In the discussion, the state
ment was made that one-way
traffic on Klamath avenue and
Main street would improve traf
fic movement to any point in
the Main-Klamath sector and
cross-streets over the present
condition.
Houston asked in particular
what the effect would . be on
traffic coming into Klamath for
trading purposes from surround
ing rural and suburban areas.
Baldock, using a map, declared
that traffic from any outside
area could ' reach downtown
points with less delay and con
fusion under the proposed sys
tem. Baldock explained that he
could not give any assurance
how soon the cross-traffic sys
tem would be established, con
struction authorization being a
matter for the highway com
mission rather than the engi
neer. He said that it would be
necessary for the city- council to
adopt ordinances establishing
one-way traffic before the new
system could be inaugurated.
Baldock agreed to have a map
drawn showing plan No. 1 for
use in The Herald and News as
soon as possible.
If the world Is to be comfort
able and prosperous, industry
and labor must produce to the
best of their ability. Production,
in the final analysis, is the key
to full employment.

ATLANTA. Nov. 28 (IP) A
former American diplomat to
day lauded Mai. Gen. Patrick
Hurley for "revealing the ob
structionist tactics ol American
foreign service "career" officers
in the Far East and the state
derailment.
Hush G. Grant of Atlanta.
former minister ol Alabama,
minister to Siam and member of
the state department during
1933-42, said of Hurley's resigna
tion as ambassador to unina yesterday:

right track about the confusion
of our foreign policy as a result
of the tactics of professional
"career", officers in the lower
brackets. 01 tne service.
'Under the existing system.'
he said in an interview in; the
Atlanta Journal, 'neither an am
bassador nor a minister has any
real control over his own mis
sion, since the 'career' officers
are assigned from the depart
ment and in many cases have
'pipelines' to powerful fellow
'career officers in the depart
ment. "These men can absolutely
'break' a chief of mission and
they can ignore and circumvent
the established foreign policy of
the president and the secretary
of state." . .
Grant said "General Hurley's
description of his experiences
with 'career' diplomats in China
sounds like a chapter out. of my
own experiences in two missions
abroad" which he said led to
his "resignation which I had
not tendered" being accepted
"by cablegram from Acting Sec
retary of State Sumner Welles,
a top 'career' officer.

British Asked
To Halt Action
BATAVIA, Java, Nov. 28 (IP)
The Indonesian governor of
western Java asked the British
command today to halt military
action at Bandoeng, and was
told that nationalist forces must
evacuate the residential area
north of the cast-west railway
line by noon tomorrow.
In the midst of a tense situa
tion in the summer capital, the
Javanese governor approached
British headquarters in Bando
eng under a white flag, an offi
cial British statement said.
Earlier, strong allied patrols
had been ordered out in Bando
eng, about 75 miles southeast of
Batavla, to disperse Indonesians
who were gathering in the city,
In one area of which some 60,
000 former civilian internees of
the Japanese were crowded.
A British brigade commander
told the Javanese governor that
if the area north of the rail line
was not evacuated by the fixed
deadline, any Indonesians found
there after noon tomorrow
would be liable to be shot by
British patrols. No, civilians
may approach within 200 yards
of any British or Japanese post.
The governor replied, the
British said, that he was unable
to "assent or make proposals."

tion in the United Nations and
pleaded that the "awful" atomic
bomb be used as a "persuader"
to prevent aggression.
"The world organization of
which I am thinking is one de
signed to stop war with the
atomic bomb in the hands of the
United States as a club behind
the door to be used only when a
bandit nation goes berserk," he
said in a senate speech.
