Today's Roundup
By MALCOLM EPLEY
A NEIGHBORLY policy which is certainly
not altogether selfish has been adopted by
the Lake County chamber of commerce and the
Lake view Examiner in respect
to bus service between that
city and Klamath Falls.
When it was recently re
ported that the Red Ball stage
line, which links Klamath
and Lakeview, might discon
. tinue the night bus back to
Lakeview. prompt opposition
action was taken by the Lake-.
view people.
' Klamath joined in, and it
appears that the Gordon
Quimbv estate, operator of the
line, now Intends to continue the night service.
We believe the decision is a wise one and join
wholeheartedly in supporting it.
At present, stages from Lakeview arrlvt
In Klamath Falls at 11:15 a. m. and 8:15 p. m.
daily. They leave here for Lakeview at 9 a. m.
and 8:30 p. m. ; ''.
This is a good schedule, and is especially
helpful for Lakeview people who want to do
business in Klamath Falls, and to Klamath
businesses who want the Lakeview patronage.
Lakeview people can leave their town In the
Mr I
EPLEY
morning, spend the afternoon doing business
here, and return home that night.
That means business for Klamath Falls from
Lakeview, and that Is why wa regard the
attitude of Lakcview's business organization
and newspaper as most unselfish. We ap
preciate it. We hope that Klamath support of
improvement of the highway between Lakeview
and Alturas, not a direct connection to Klamath
Falls, may be a partial reciprocation.
, Fact is, of course, that anything that is done
to improve transportation between any com-
. munities of tills area is beneficial to all. Wo
need to get closer together in our business
and social relationships. Transportation will
help us do it. The Lakeview paper, comment
ing on this Idea, makes tills pertinent remark:
"Towns, no more than nations, can live apart
In this present age."
Outdoor Decorations
THE tinsel, baubles and colored lights we put
on Christmas trees fade into drab Insig
nificance when compared with what nature has
been doing to everything outdoors these morn
ings. , ,
This is an-annual occurence, and memory
tells us it usually comes about Christmas time.
It presents the breath-taking beauty that goes
with a silver thaw In other parts of the state,
but it doesn't do the damage that results from
silver thaw.
The thaw coats trees, wires and other out
door things with heavy ice, and often there is
widespread breakage. Here, moisture in the air
freezes Into feathery substance that is beautiful
but light and harmless. Seeing it on a winter
morning is one of the really worth-while ex
periences one gets in the Klamath country.
Today's Bible Reading
From Phillppians III
FINALLY, ye brethren, rejoice in the Lord . . .
Brethren, I count not myself to have ap
prehended: but this one thing I do, forgetting
those things which are behind, and reaching
forth unto those things which are before,
I press toward the mark for the prize of the
high calling of God in Christ Jesus.
Let us therefore, as many as be perfect, be
thus minded: and if In anything ye be otherwise
minded, God shall reveal even this unto you.

Today

LONDON. Dec 19 Eng
land's august house of lords
has averted an extremely dan
gerous crisis for itself by bow
ing to the will
of the labor
govern ment
and voting for
the United
States loan.
It is possi
blethough, it
must remain a
matter of spec
ulation that
the lords might
have destroyed
rTTTd MacKENZIE
the - government. The British
press had published the blunt,
though unofficial, warning that
a revolt on tne pan oi ine press
would spell their end as a legis
lative body.
Of course the house of lords
lost most of its authority back
in 1911 when liberal Prime Min
ister Asquith jammed through
the so-called parliament act
' which .' deprived the lords of
their -veto power over the house
of 1 commqns. He , achieved this
through one of the most dramat
ic coups in firmsn political ms
tbrv.
Asquith first carried the Issue
, to the country in a general elec
tion which returned ms govern
ment to power, thus giving him
the mandate to act. With that,
commons passed the act depriv
ing the lords of their veto, and
the measure then came before
the upper chamber itself.
Peari Revolted
Naturally the peers revolted
against committing nara-kin
and it was then that Asquith
made an unprecedented move.
He threatened that if the lords
.didn't accept the act he would
advise tne lung to create a suffi
cient number of liberal peers to
ensure its passage - advice
which his majesty was bound to
accept. So the lords bowed to
the inevitable. -
' Under the parliamentary act
the house of commons has to
pass and repass a measure
through three separate sessions
of parliament in order to nulli
fy opposition to the lords. Thus
the upper house can delay legis
lation heavily, though it cannot
mane its veto suck,
It was because of the danger
of delay in the matter of the
loan that the old Asquith threat
was revived in tne press
The intimation was that the
government would advise King
George to create enough labor
peers to dominate the position.
However, there has been no offi
cial confirmation of such inten
tion and I doubt whether Prime
Minister Attlee would make
such a move without holding
anotner general election to place
the issue before the country.
SPEAKING OF TORNADOES
A tornado's path is 30 miles
long, on an average. Its forward
speed reaches a velocity of be
tween 25 and 40 miles an hour,
and its 'whirling winds reach
speeds of from 300 to 500 miles
an hour.

DEARBORN, Mo., Dec. 19
Dr. F. L. Durham arrived at a
farm home near here ten min
utes too late to deliver a baby
daughter to Mrs. Cecil Foster,
but just in time to discover a
fire In the home.
The doctor bundled the moth
er and baby in blankets, and as
the flames destroyed the farm
house, rushed the mother and
infant to a St. Joseph, Mo., hos
pital, where both are reported
doing nicely.
