Klamath County Relief Load Hits 5-Year High The relief load of the county welfare office for this month is heavier than for any month in the past five years, figures at the welfare office reveal, and the county commission has set aside $6000 for general assistance in March. At present 106 cases are re ceiving financial help, among them many persons classified as employable. All these are cur rently registered with the em ployment office and are expect ed to take jobs if any open. Also receiving aid are a num ber of ex-servicemen, some dur ing the period while they are waiting for their unemployment insurance benefits to begin. The case load now is higher than in any month since March, 1941, with 106 families receiving case work services only. In addition to the $6000 for general assistance, the county commission approved an expen diture this month of $8650 for old-age assistance, $1700 for aid to dependent children and $66 for blind aid. v NO THANKS LOS ANGELES. March 6 &) A government agency gave the city school system two carloads of potatoes and Business Mana ger A. S. Nibecker a headache.

RED CROSS By EARL WHITLOCK Yets, indeed, I know that In- . come tax comes this month know the cost of living is going up all tne time. . I know you've got lots of uses for your money. But, just the same I want -you to do your duty by Red Cross. No, let's say "do your pleasure." Because your Red Cross con tribution ought to be a pleasure. . Surely there is no expenditure you could make which will benefit hu manity more greatly. In drouth, in flood, in fire or in earthquake, in China or in Chicago, the Red Cross is ready to help the helpless. And it doesn't ask who you are, or where you hail from, or if you've filled out your applica tion blank or what party you voted for in the last election. , Red Cross asks only, "Do you need help?" and says, "Here is that help." Dig, deep on this one! Make your contribution a good one! Next Monday Mr. Whitlock, of the Earl Whitlock Funeral home, will comment on "Un paid, Unsung, Unappreciated." (Continued from Page One) NENT peace, but at least long periods of temporary peace can be brought about by those who have the power. Rome, when she had the power, enforced the Pax Romana (peace of Rome.) Britain, when she had the power, enforced the Pax Brittanica (peace of Britain.) Temporary peace is better than NO peace. If we and the British peoples work together to HOLD THE POWER, we can en force another PAX which, be? cause we are reasonably decent and tolerant, will be far better for mankind than what will fol low if we stay divided and weak. (TON'T kiss off this proposal for intelligent co-operation between Britain and America without serious thought. French Warships Bombard Chinese CHUNGKING.
