Published every afternoon except Sunday at Espla nade and Pin etreata, Klamath Fallt, Oregon, fay tha Harald Publishing Co. and tha News Publishing Company. Matnbar, Aaaoclatad Praaa Today's Roundup Br MALCOLM EPLEY SIX years ago today the local staff on this paper cooked up an alliterative heading for a feature entitled "Favored for Forty," and asked Klamath people to suggest community betterment projects which they would like to see brought to fruition in 1940. Many constructive sugges tions were made. Some of the worthy proposals have since been accomplished; others were stymied by the war, civic procrastination, indiffer ence, and the other customar ily stubborn obstacles to com munity advancement. The war Is now over, and we are now entering our first full calendar year of peace. This Is a good time to rededi- EPLEY cate ourselves to constructive effort for Klam - ath Falls and the big surrounding area in which our "city is the largest community. A Few Suggestions THAT means many things. Let's suggest just a few in the hope of stimulating thinking and action: 1. We need to go ahead rapidly now in Im proving the appearance, usefulness and llvea bility of public and private property. Remem ber that crack at us about delapidation without antiquity." 2. Agriculture means more to the area than ever before, and land and water development call for a well organized program supported by strong public interest The standards of our principal products need to be strengthened and these products deserve a far-sighted advertising program. 3. It is time to take another realistic look at our forest products resources and to do every thing possible to stimulate private enterprise and public agencies to make them count to the hilt in our future economy. That means prompt development of that much-talked-about manu facturing program. , : 4. Further development of transportation facilities within the area, and linking it with other regions and transportation centers is of vast importance to us. Through airline con nections and air links between Klamath Falls and the communities of this area are major necessity. There is still much to be done in highway development of local sigjnmcance W. need a more complete m Tmi. i News Behind The News Br PAUL MALLON WASHINGTON, Dec. 31 The business prophesies for 1948 are taking a com mon line predicting prices will go higher, and all the rest of the business- picture will fit into Member Audit that inflationary pattern, with higher general Bumu circulation public earnings, a continued sellers' market and a high-level freeflow of money. The only thing I know for sure about it is that always in the past, when the great busi ness prophets unanimously agreed on the future. it seldom turned out their way. When Mr. Hoover was elected, all were sure there would be two cars in every garage and two chickens in every pot; yet within his presi dential span we were at the depths of all time. Mr. Roosevelt, we all thought, at first, would surely cure . the depression, but it never got cured. Then later we all thought it would never get cured, during the latter part of the Roosevelt regime, and along came the war and - pushed us so high out of it we cannot yet see the ground through the economic stratosphere, Thereafter, during the war, the great prophets all agreed there would be a terrific crash at .the end, with great unemployment. Now here we are at the end, with our Christmas sales much higher than last year during the war, with more jobs untaken than men unemployed And we are now thinking of a higher plane ahead unanimously as usual. I wonder. Look At The Facts LET us look at the facts we have, atom by atom, and behind the atoms. They say there will be "higher prices." Prices generally are based on the availability of goods. When there are shortages, any amount can be charged for goods, and collected from the people, if they have money as they do now. But in the next year ahead we are planning to get back to our peacetime mass production We have more machines and men than ever before. War has developed manufacturing short cuts for production. As production brings goods to the market, competition will be restored. This means not only competition in quality but in price. It is quite clear then that the expectations of expanding production ahead will work against higher prices. Indeed, this will work gradually as production swells in the latter months of the year toward lower prices. But the unions are wangling great unpre cedentedly large wage increases from indus try, and this development, coupled with the announced intention of the government to main tain a high price level, will surely force prices higher, they say. Yes, certainly this would seem to force an ' Increase of the price of union-made goods. On the other hand people have grown, during the war, to be satisfied with patches, with old S. " "irrWcrto Klamath Falls of things, with repaired machines. ; it railroads bus lines and trucking industry. If only the unions get these tremendous wage 8. Klamath has had its share of strikes in tha war-peace transition period, but we believe there exist, here the basis for better jinder standing between management and labor than is customary in most industrial) centers. Local leaders of labor-and managemeht are disposed to get along together, and it is Usually outs de Influence that creates friction. PubUc opmioru should support these people eir eKorts In the future to solve their problems without strife . and the bitter personal losses that come through W6.kpMiodsgof adjustment and confusion are tough on our youngsters. If we are to prevent juvenile delinquency and widen opportunities for our youth, we need to give more "Mention and support to our churches schools and I youth organizations. The fact we have fallen behind in financial support of the youth groups this fall indicates a need for a new recognition of this responsibility. 7. The coming year will most certainly see most of our citizen-soldiers back at home.. Organized methods of helping their return to civilian life are pretty well set up, but there is much the individual can do that is not in the "organized" category. From a general commun ity standpoint, the accomplishment of the ob jectives suggested in the foregoing paragraphs will do more than anything else to make this community worth coming back to and worth making the home location for a productive life. Slayer Search Swings East PORTLAND. Ore.. Dec. 31 UP) Search for the' slayer of Walter Howard Poole, Vancouver, Wash., has swune into the mid dle west, Deputy Sheriff Jack Wills reported today., Wills said a car abandoned at ' - Logan, Iowa, bears the motor number of the Midding Poole - auto and had Oregon license plates stolen from a car nere. Poole's body was found in the street in Vanport Christmas day - with a bullet hole tnrougn tne . back and chest. The deputy sheriff said Sher- m Hunts oi .Logan, lowa, re ported a negro and a white man - dressed in a soldier's uniform left the car. Wills said the de scription of the negro checked with that of a man wanted here on a charge of assault with a dan- gerous weapon in a . Vanport apartment uecemDer z. Hope Abandoned For 20 Miners PINEVTLLE. Kv.. Dec. 31 IJP . Twenty of the miners entombed ; last Wednesday by an under ground explosion in a coal mine near here today were given up ; for dead as Harry Thomas, chief engineer oi ine lientucKy state department of mines and miner als, ordered the main entrance to the pit sealed. - Thomas, the only person with authority to take such action, said there was no chance of reaching the trapped men due to the bad fire and gas conditions witnin tne mine. ' Previously eight miners had been brought out alive, one died before he could be brought to me top, ana two were found dead and removed from the mine. - (Continued from Page One) part in the government (of China) either In the Dolicy-mak- ing councils or the executive branches." He names as his only condition that "other repre sentatives must not marawui autonomous armies to serve as instruments for forcible seizure of power." He is obviously referring to the communists, who are tne only Chinese faction wan an ei- fective army. But his condition sounds reasonable enough. Peace CAN'T COME in China as long as there are opposing factional armies. TJERE at the threshold of a new world, there must be horje and willingness to THY, So lets loin ueneral Mac- Arthur in agreeing that the is sues involved are too vital to the future of the world to risk the bogging down of the efforts at world co-operation tnat are now under way.

Buyers Strike THERE has been every other kind of strike in this country, except a buyers strike. The conditions being created may force one, Therefore, I believe the human element will determine the course of business for 1946. We know the economic factors. We do not know how the people will react to them. We know the shortages of goods will not be completely cured next year, but a plentiful supply will be restored in many lines. Union wages will be up, but how many others? The administration wants high prices, but how can it move them higher than now in the face of the coming restoration of competition? Will people pay the prices asked? Will labor's human leadership strike on and hold back pro duction? Will the human leadership of the ad ministration accomplish its purposes, and to what degree? With a congressional election ahead, how far will the spending faucets of inflation be turned still further? These are matters no human can possibly now know. Typo Union Rejects Offer SEATTLE, Dec. 31 (P) Union membership of the Seat tle Typographical Union (AFL) last night voted not to accept a management proposal, and to continue the strike which has kept Seattle s three daily news papers ' from publishing since Nov. 18. Union officials, in making the announcement, would make no immediate statement of the terms of the proposal voted down yesterday. Management spokesmen likewise did not comment. Mayor William F. Devin said last night he would attempt to get puDlisnerr representatives and the union strike committee again into conference today, Devin's intervention last week brought about yesterday's new proDOsal and union vote. The printers have been asking a $2.95 a day increase. Manage- ment's previous offer was $1.65 per aay. Courthouse Records Marrlere Licenses BESSONETTZ . ADK1N8QN.

New Year's Greetings By F. ELSWORTH PELLETT The morning sun is rising on another glad new year. What can I now wish you that would brine content and cheer? Naught that brings rejoicing at the cost of other men, But just a few reminders as they slip from off my pen. A friend who understands you and still remains your friend, A work which has real value and a will your aid to lend. A mind that dares to travel e'en though the trail be dark, A heart that's light and faithful as you on this day embark. A little sense of humor and the will to laugh and smile, A little leisure with your strife would brighten every mile. A few moments' meditation sense the presence of your God And a little patience also as the homeward way you plod. Just a little thoughtful mixing with the wisdom that you claim, Will make the whole year brighter if you rightly use the same. So, my friends, be not forgetful as you journey on your way, Of the many little tokens that will make hearts light and gay. Hearty greetings I now wish you as the new year comes in sight, Ana wun tnanKs tor an our oiessings, say gooa-mgm, oia year, good-night. Klamath Falls, Dec. 31, 1949.
