Today's Roundup
By MALCOLM EPLEY
THIS ii good week for Klamath people to
be history-minded. 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.

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.

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.

note of the selections they like.
The result may be a program
that includes Chopin's "Military
Polonaise," and Offenbach's ov
erture, along with Leroy Ander
son's "Jazz Legato" and "Jazz
Pizzicato," the "Skater's Waltz"
and a medley of tunes from "Ok
lahoma." The personnel of the
"Pops" orchestra is recruited
mainly from the Boston Sym
phony, and their repertory in
a spring season consists of sev
eral hundred works. Popular hits
and new works by American
composers are constantly added.
Starting today and including
May 7, 8. 10 and 13. Raymond
Swing will originate in New
York City.
Another ABC-KFLW first will
come to the people of Klamath

ABOUT FREMONT MARKER
KLAMATH FALLS, Ore. (To
the Editor) In your article of
April 27, about the finding of
the John C. 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.
