Today's Roundup
By MALCOLM EPLEY
EXIT the Jap camp. Wednesday night brings
an official close to the sprawling layout of
Jrame and tarpaper buildings south ot luieiaKe,
scene of one of the most interesting and at
times exciting chapter ot fSK
World War II.
We won't go into the de
tails of that story at the mo
ment, but in passing it's
worthy of comment that the
Tulelake WR A .center served
eminently as an educational
project for the people of the
Klamath basin.
Location of the center in
the southend of the basin gave
people here a close-at-hand
look, first at fjovernment con
struction meinoas, mm ituer
at administration policies and techniques of a
iederal agency. It was, in short, an eye-opener
' It was through the people of the Klamath
basin that public opinion, was brought to bear
on the civilian WRA agency in the operation of
this center for disloyal Japanese. The open
criticism expressed by Klamath people of cer
tain administrative policies helped to bring
about a more realistic administration of the
project..
Much of that criticism was voiced in this
column. . At the same time, we have never over
looked the serious and delicate problems which
were involved in this unprecedented wartime
enterprise, and we feel that credit is due those
WRA officials who have done their best in dif
ficult jobs down there. They made their mis
takes, and there were mistakes in policy handed
down from above. But it would be unfair to
belittle the efforts of those who worked con
scientiously ' to carry this unpleasant task
through to the end.
.
How Ir Is Listed
CONTRARY to a statement made here earlier
in the week, we are informed by M. E.
Arbuckle, CAA man at Klamath airport, that
the local field is included in the notices to
'' airmen put out by the CAA.
Mr. Arbuckle says that the Klamath field is
listed in the notices as Klamath naval air sta
tion, with a notation to the effect that it is
, closed except for emergency landings, and the
lights will be turned on at night only for
; emergency use upon request. Incidentally, the
notices to airmen are now put out on a bi
weekly instead of a weekly basis.
This CAA notation that the Klamath field
it closed except for emergency indicates the
need for 'working out in the immediate future
an arrangement whereby this fine big field
is made available for full use.
to have been broken all along the line. The
settlement mentions no book inspection and the
initial statements avoided also the subject of
wages and profits. Indeed, the government an
nounced just before the break that any future
auto price increases would be made retroactive
and could bo collected from the. consumer after
the sale which suggests there may be price in
creases despite the union announcement to the
contrary,
CIO Spell Of Domination
THE CIO spell of domination has therefore
been broken but for how long? Motors
got a two year contract, but Schwellcnbach sug
gested it provided reopening of wage considera
tions in one year. The steel settlement was for
one year. The pattern of all other current
labor agreements is similarly one year, based
also on the' same wage increase. They plainly
allow, therefore, for reopening the general
strike campaign at that time. ,
Is this basic settlement then but a one year
truce in the CIO campaign to create a supra
business dictatorship? Will all the familiar
pressures of CIO upon business and government
be renewed 12 months hence in the same revolu
tionary form, or even stronger form?
These are the questions which the settlement
left lurking in the minds of thinking people and
explains why the nation's cheering was consid
erably short of enthusiastic.
No Solution Achieved
THE agreements failed a permanent promise
of continued production in short a solution.
But it certainly represents the first important
progress toward that goal in many a past year.
For one tiling managements did not cave in
timidly in the face of pressures to. absorb it,
but broke them. General Motors stood its
ground and thus pointed the way toward a new
and democratic technique for management
which has been on the run for a long time.
Also it beat the strategic union plan to isolate
it from its competitors. Ford and Chrysler
could not take advantage of GM's troubles be
cause they could not get basic materials for
production. Furthermore, the union scheme to
bring in Kaiser as a new motors manufacturer,
and have him go, to the White House and an
nounce his acceptance of the union proposals
and become champion for CIO, did not break
the . company position. The orders of govern
ment which would hae put the company under
the union thumb likewise were resisted.
These developments mark progress in the
reconversion of the nation to genuine demo
cratic peacetime ways of freedom from domina-ition.
What is needed next is the development of an
era of good feeling in labor relations in which
unions will become unions again, and not as
pirants for directorship of business and civil
affairs. Then we will be truly reconverted to
democracy.

South Road Story
This la the second Installment of the story of the open
ing . . ....... am road in 1846. as related some 40
years later by Lindsay Applegate. noted pioneer and mem
ber of the South Road party. In thia story. Lindsay is
telling the yarn to two boys. Frank: Applegate and Ed
Loosley. in the old farm house on Lone Rock ranch In Swan
Lake about 1800. In Saturday s Installment, the party of
15 South Road explorers prepared to set out on the journey
from western Oregon, to open a read to Fort Hall, in Idaho,
through southern Oregon. Now, pick up the story, with
Lindsay talking to the boys: '
News Behind The News
By PAUL MALLON
WASHINGTON, March 18 The volume of
national cheering was suspiciously limited
at the breaking of the key strikes in motors and
; electrics. Labor Secretary Schwellenbach emit
ted one long hurrah, but the initial statements
from both sides were definitely vague and com
pletely unenthusiastic, while the nation's cheer
ing section as a whole seemed more concerned
. about asking who won and what it all meant.
No one won.
The deeper my Inauiries led me to the inside
of the matter, the clearer it became that the
auto strike deadlock was not a matter of dif
ference in wages,, or "manpower," or any other
advertised details of the conflict but involved
one single question.
That question was whether the CIO was to be
. a supra-business directorate in the same way it
has sought to become a supra-government in
plainer language: was CIO to be the boss and
! run the business, as it has attempted to be boss
of government and run it.
Clearly CIO lost ground on that proposition.
Its initial plan was to open the company books,
determine company profits by this and future
. wage demands and make the concern sub
servient to union-economics by preventing the
company from getting any price increase to
meet these demands, the pressure moves appear

ON June 20th we gathered at La Creolenow
Dallas and that day gained where Cor
vallis now is. We enjoyed this part of the
journey; we struck a valley, followed it and
campea at uie root oi tne Laia- a? -i
puuia mountains.
Two days later, still follow
ing the foot of these same moun
tains, we passed a butte called
Spencer and it was here on the
south side that we first sighted
Indians; they were digging
camas. They scattered like a
flock of quail, with the excep
tion of one old man who moved
so slowly that we caught up
with him. By use of signs he
understood and led us to a
trail. We noticed the tree and
brush tons WPrp twistpri anrl
learned the trail was so diffi- L- Applegate
cult to follow that the natives had marked it
this way. With this to guide us, we found a
stream on the Umpqua side; the ground was
carpeted with strawberries and what a feast we
had.
As I recall, it was the 23rd of June when we
pressed across grassy oak-clad hills and through
little gullies to the north Umpqua river. Here
we got soaked. The river bottom was made up
of loose rock in which the horses could not get
a foothold. Our campfire felt good Jhat night.
The next day was a hard one too. Starting
early, we struck the south branch of the
Umpqua coming in from the east. The river
here is sixty yards wide at least. We'd had a
day of it so made early camp.

VIENNA, March 18 Dr
Karl Rentier, president of this
storm-tossed little republic, tells
me he believes
that "the great
hope for Aus
tria is Vienna i
itself."
"V i e n n a,"
says the dic
tator, "is des
tined to be the
internatio n a 1
center of cul
ture. Vienna
has so many
trea s u r e s of
old culture that it will be forever
a Doint for sightseers. It is a base
for air transport. If you want to
see Europe in three days, come
to Vienna, all is here.
"Vienna knows nearly all the
languages of importance. That's
the good heritage of the old mon
archy. We don't want to restore
the monarchy, but wo arc proud
to be its cultural heir."
' From this it will be clear that
the silver-haired chief of state,
with his benign countenance and
twinkling eyes, is by way of be
ing a smooth salesman. He in
jected this lure for tourists into
a long interview which I had
with him at the chancellery on
Austria's general position and
her hopes, and he did' it so
adroitly that it was as fitting as
a new hat for Easter.
Study Damage)
As a matter of fact I was glad
Dr. Renner raised this subject,
because it impelled Mrs. Mack
and me to re-examine the capi
tal with an expert guide to make
a fresh assay of the damage sus
tained in the siege towards the
close of the war. Of course, Vien
na was terribly hurt by bombing
and gunfire, but a city is like
the human body it can endure
grievous injuries and recover
without showing many scars.
Now I don't want to inject
any over optimistic language in-
Pappy's Ex
Changes Mind
' SEATTLE, March 18 (VP) Mrs.
Helen Boyington, ex-wife of Lt.
Col. Gregory (Pappy) Boyington,
the marine ace, said last night
. her marriage to George L. Gil
bert, 38, Seattle newspaper ven
dor, reported earlier yesterday,
was definitely off.
Mrs. Boyington announced she
has changed her mind after ap
plying here Saturday for a
, license to marry Gilbert. She
told the Post-Intelligenoer last
night, "I'm not getting married
because of my health. It is all
over with. I don't feel well
enough to get married now, and
I don t know when 1 will.

to this dispatch. Vienna is lienv
Ily damaged, but when wo havo
emphasized that point it can bo
added that relatively speaking
she came through her o r d c n 1
pretty well. As compared with
lierlm, lor example, tne nuit
trinn canital is in Hood shape,
Berlin is just a shell of its once
proud self and must be rebuilt
from the ground up a task of
many, many years but Vien
na's duiraiKe can be repaired in
many important instances.
You get encouragement for
that idea if you make your way
around the Ringstrasse, fnmous
as a promenade in days or peace.
Along that boulevard stand
many of Vienna's noted build
ings and it's surprising what a
large number have survived tho
bombardment, in wholo or In
part. A good deal of repair work
already is under way, too, so
that you feci the pulse of life,
whereas in cities like Berlin,
where there has been virtually
total destruction, you don't need
to be told that they are dead.
Vienna's visions of tourists
are by no means a mirage, but
she has many problems to solve
besides the lack of bricks and
mortar before those visions con
come fully true. Her most press
ing difficulty and this is true
of most of the country is the
grave scarcity of food. Many
people in Austria are hungry. In
some sections they are trying to
subsist on as little as 700 calor
ies a day, and that's far below
the level that will support
neaitn. .
Funds Needed
To Lay Cable
PORTLAND, March 18 (VP)
An estimated $10,000 is needed
to lay a new electric power
cable to Crater Lake National
Park lodge to provide power for
the lodge this summer, a Port
land chamber of commerce of
ficial said today.
Frank W. Womack reported
the park superintendent had ad
vised the cable had been pur
chased but no funds allowed for
laying it. The only alternative
would be a portable power unit
for the lodge, Womack reported.
