'Boner' Pulled
By Democrats
WASHINGTON, April 12 (AP)
A Kroup of bouso democrat to
day culled for a party caucus
to consider what one of them
termed a "boner" by the demo
cratic national committee.
'J'ho action to which they ob
jected was a recent letter from
democratic headquarter to the
party' county chairmen udvis
111K them to "select proper can
didates" for congress,
The protesting democrat cir
culated a petition describing the
letter us u reflection on present
office holder. It wus the second
intru-purty clush within a fort
night. Hlchard R. Nucy, executive
vice chairman of tho national
committee, termed the whole
Bffuir un "error."
Nucy aent a telegram to at
least one dernocrut, Hep, O'Toole
of New York, advising him of
the mistake. The telegram, as
given out by O'Toole, said:
"Thi letter was intended to
be sent only to county chairmen
in district now represented by
republicans."
O'Toole made this comment
to a reporter on whut ho termed
the "committee's boner":
"It looks as though we'll not
only huve to fight the Repub
licans but also the democratic
nutional committee. Today I
will forward a copy of the con
gressional directory to the dem
ocratic national committee o
they, will know who the demo
cratic congressmen are."

Klamath's military contingent,
which a year ago numbered
3000 and daily flooded the
streets of town with marine
corps green and navy blue, to
day has dwindled to approxi
mately 110 sailors and leather

tuchment of 102 marine and
two corpsmen, and at the air sta
tion, Comdr. S. A. Congden's
force include six enlisted men
and two officer.
The marines are principally
occupied on guard duty, with a
few working in the fire depart
ment, galley, switchboard and
other neccssury utilities. Most
of the physical plant of the bar
racks is closed, all except the ad
ministration building, unit of
the married officers' quarters,
one barracks, the hostess house,
which is now the mess hall, the
heating, pumping- and sewage
plants.
About one-fourth of the ma
rines are married and live in
town while the rest live in bar
racks B-l, the building once oc
cupied by the post's guard de
tachment. About 20 civilian
worker are employed on the
post now, but that crew may be
cut soon,
At tho air station, the six sail- j
ors are kept busy maintaining !
the bulluings and grounds and
the only units open are the ad
ministration building, transpor
tation and public works.
All navy men live off the post
as no quarters are open at the
station. Civilians occupy the
majority of the homoja hut in
the housing unit and civilian
flyers are using one hangar and
runways at the field.

Let's Face the Facts
About HOME BUILDING
In the confusion created about the shortage of
homes in America, one point stands out clearly:
YOU CAN'T BUILD HOMES WITH
OUT MATERIALS!
Lumber and building material dealers and con
tractors obviously have a vital interest in obtaining
materials for home building.
They report, nevertheless, that such materials ore
not flowing through the yards; that they have not
been able to get them. Therefore, the Government's
HH priorities offered to enable veterans and others
to obtain homes, are simply home hunting licenses
for materials in quantity are not available.
As long as OPA continues its wartime control
policy rather than a policy of adjustment to aid
reconversion, it will neither be able to prevent an
inflation or a deflation; it will only be able to pre
vent reconversion by discouraging production of
needed home building items.
Here, for example, is an instance of OPA action
that has resulted in increased production. After 6
months' delay, OPA granted a 4 to 10 price ad
justment that allowed 125 of 400 closed brick and
tile plants to reopen. This price adjustment allowed
these plants and 400 others that had been operating,
to hire needed labor. As a result, in theliext quarter
production rose 35.
But in hardwood flooring, siding, plywood, mill
work, and construction lumber, OPA clings to its
wartime formulas. Instead, OPA follows the un
realistic policy of allowing premium prices to mills
for producing lumber for such things as export to
foreign countries, and for items that were needed
in wartime industry.
Today's question , is not essentially one of price
control if there were plenty of homes, no price
controls would be necessary. The important ques
tion is one of production and manpower.
So far, OPA ond Government officialdom in gen
eral have contented themselves with controls, allo
cations and priority systems which at best can do
nothing but juggle an insufficient supply of building
materials and at worst, delay and retarti produc
tion and the employment of manpower.
Homes will not be built in the United States
unless the Building Industry builds them. Whether
they are labeled "Public Housing" or "Private
Homes," the same materials, the same labor, the
same building industry will build them.
Production con be un-blocked by the removal or
adjustment of OPA's wartime policies. But such a
realistic approach cannot be attained as long as
Government action is based on a philosophy of lack
rather than a philosophy of abundant supply for
peacetime prosperity.
. The lumber dealers, builders and contractors stand
ready to build or rebuild America. But it is up to
the people to demand that the way be cleared for
the production of materials for homes.
Any government program that does
not FIRST remove the obstacles block
ing production of materials will simply
add additional difficulties to the prob
lem facing the building industry.
