It ia an important week in a year that has great historical sig nificance as the J 00th anni versary of outstanding events In the history of our region, of the west, and of the nation. As Is related elsewhere in today's paper, it was 100 years ago today that John C. Fre mont and his party crossed Link river at the outlet of Upper Klamath lake. The events of this and succeeding days of this week in 1848 are vastly interesting, and will be told as the week advances. The significance of these events extends far beyond the limits of our own area, as will be realized by those who follow this story. Inci dents occurred here which had a profound effect on the destiny of the nation. They give the Klamath country a depth of background that needs to be understood and placed in proper relation with modern de velopment. This adds to the pleasure and interest of living in this country; it gives the Klamath region a place of prestige and honor in the history of the West. a a Must Be Signed ANONYMOUS letters to the editor on po litical matters are unacceptable. We do not like anonymous letters under any condi tions, but those covering political matters are definitely out of order because of legal re strictions on the circulation of such material. The state corrupt practices act provides that it is unlawful to circulate through the mails or otherwise any letter, circular, bill, etc., relat ing to any election or candidate, unless the same shall carry the name and address of the author. Our opinion is that this covers letters to the editor. We therefore insist on names and addresses with such letters that are submitted to us for publication in the letters column. We must further insist that the names and addresses be genuine. This is mentioned at this time because, as usual, at this stage before an election we are getting unsigned material. It can't be used. m m m Impossible ONE such anonymous letter came in this morning's mail. The writer of this mis sive suggested a write-in campaign for circuit judge lor a man who is not a member of the bar. Here again, the law enters the picture. Section 03-702 of Oregon, law provides that all persons elected to the supreme court or the circuit bench must, at the time of taking office, be admitted to practice in the supreme court. That eliminates any possibility of a success ful write-in campaign for a non-member of the bar. News Behind The News By PAUL MALLON WASHINGTON, May 6 Behind the .UNO investigation, of course,, is the purpose of Russia to bestir revolution in Spain, so as to strengthen the Latin front of communist activ-. lty France, on one side, Italy on the omer and the three together. Inner portents suggest the communists will not get away with it. Chairmanship of the UNO commission went to Australia. Spain sits with both paws on Gibraltar, and Gibraltar paws protectively the British lifeline, the main sea traffic route from Britain to Australia. During the war, Spain made no move against the rock which General Eisenhower, fearful of Spanish action, used as his headquarters to launch the North African invasion. The published diary of Eisenhower's aide, Harry Butcher (which incidentally ihows the aide went off on other duties at times when the action became most interesting and thus furnishes great lapses in the military ac counting) shows Spain kept the nazis off, and did not interfere with operations of the British airfield there, which was the key to inaugura tion of ourwar action. Spain today is impotent. Britain or Australia will hardly wish to renew their exposed condi tion on the rock during the war, by permit ting a new communist-pressured government in Spain the same easy access, which Franco did not use, and the nazis never were able to employ. ' a a Fundamentals OTHERS on the UNO commission are China, Brazil, France and Poland. I would judge the vote then would be about 3 to 2 against a revolution n Spain or acquisition of com munist or Russian power there. Some au ' thorities are interpreting this matter the other way. They are saying that inasmuch as Brazil is the only commissioner with diplomatic rela tions to Madrid, the vote would be 4. to 1 . for Russian moves to eliminate Franco. Diplo matic relations are not concerned here. This issue gets down to utmost fundamentals. Russia occupies two thirds of Europe today.' She has political agitation alive in the other third, ex cepting only Spain. In the matter of allowing further encroachments up the rock, I suspect China and Brazil would join Australia, although possibly France would side with Russia's Po land. In action, however, these UNO commissions have been required, for the face of things, to move only by unanimity. A divided vote will be avoided if possible. The investigation will necessarily, then, require much time. Technical ly it is concerned with the question whether Spain is a threat to the peace of the world. A look at any geography, comparing the size of Spain and Russia could have dispelled this charge, except that the Spanish exile govern ment charged German scientists were in Spain making an atom bomb. This appears preposter ous as not even the British, our collaborators in its development, have one, or the where withal to one yet the charge must be in vestigated. a a ' a a Make It Non-Political SOME authorities here have thought Franco would not allow the commission to come into Spain, because Russia's Poland is repre sented on it. His dangers from thwarting the investigation, however, might be greater than from welcoming it , Yet that is a relatively minor matter in the major stakes on the table . in this issue. Personally I suggest Spain let in an Ameri can army man, who is beyond politics, to make the inquiry. A military man who does not care what the Spanish government is in this transitionary mo ment of the greater world, but who does actual ly want to know whether any atomic threat . to peace exists there, might, by undertaking an investigation, solve the difficulty. Otherwise the issue may be blown up into unrealistic im , portance for Russian purposes in world politics. SIDE GLANCES Arctic Trek On Last Lap EDMONTON, Alta.. May 8 W) The caravan of 10 snowmobiles which started from Churchill, Manitoba, Feb. 15, on a 3100 mile trek across the frozen Arctic wastes, is scheduled to arrive at Edmonton today, marking "mis sion completed" to Canada's op eration muskox. The trekers, under command of Lt.-Col. P. D. Baird of Mon treal, will finish the last 107 miles from Grand Prairie, Alta., by train, with their machines. The vehicles suffered from dust and gravel on the Alaska high way and the train trip is to save them from permanent damage. A preliminary reception will be given the men on their arrival here and a banquet is scheduled for May 10. Army officials announced last night the snowmobiles had car ried out more than 4000 miles of crosscountry operation when the expedition reached Grand Prai rie Saturday afternoon. The re port said the machines, newly developed for snow travel through trackless country, had "functioned well." Clear water Is best for wash ing windows if they are not too dirty. The secret of sparkling clear windows is no soap. Soap merely streaks the glass and is hard to rub off. Spray water on, or wipe it on with a chamois, then dry windows with a lintlcss cloth.

Fremont marker, I believe you were incorrect in stating that this stone had been moved when the Fremont bridge was built. This stone and a wooden sign about five feet high were placed at the inter section of California and Front streets in 1916. The sign re mained there until the late 1920's. I still remember the wording. It was: Mav 6. 1846 JOHN C. FREMONT And his expedition of 40 men here crossed Link river, and proceeding on the west side of the lake, camped that night at Rock creek. The actual crossing was made through the shallows where Link river leaves the lake, some 200 or 300 yards west of the sign. But these markers were placed on Front just off California, in the belief that they would be more noticeable there. The stone marker should no doubt be moved over near the bridge where more people could see it. and also a sign should be placed there. But I think the sign should tell a little more about Fremont. Something like: John C. Fremont, (1813-1890), Am. Explorer ami Gen., 1st Hep. Pros, Candidate. (Demo crats would probably kick about lust item). Alto, to pre vent future gi'tn'riitiuns from believing that he crossed on the bridge, the slim should state exactly where the crowing was made. And a nolo might be added telling when and by whom the sign was erected. Then no one (or hurclly anyone) would get the Idea that Fre mont put up the sign himself. This belief was fairly prevalent about the old sign. W. R. II., Rt. 3, Box 896.
