Today's Roundup
By MALCOLM EPLEY
REPEATING Its complaints about "non-cooperation"
from various groups, the Klam
th Buckaroo Days committee has declared it
s through with sponsorship
of Fourth of July celebrations
here until the situation is
remedied.
After announcing their in
tentions by resolution yester
day, two of the committee
men Indicated that they still
hoped there could be a frank
"around the table" confer
ence In which the problems
could be ironed out.
This looks like an oppor
tunity to get the Fourth of EPLEY
July celebration and rodeo on a revised basis
that will maintain the public confidence and
secure the cooperation which will assure its
success as a community-wide venture.
There is ample community support for the
rodeo and celebration, if the community's lead
ership can get together on the project.
Good Job
THE Buckaroo Days committee has done a
good job. Staging an event of this kind
requires know-how, plus the contribution of a
great deal of personal time and effort on the
part of the directing committee. In these de
partments, the American Legion's Buckaroo
Days committee has excelled. Furthermore, the
personal integrity and sincerity of the mem
bers of the committee are unquestioned in the
minds of informed persons.
At the same time, there has developed con
siderable opinion that the set-up somehow needs
revision. It is suggested from some quarters
that direction and sponsorship might be given
a more community-wide character it is now
in actuality a single organization's enterprise
by the formation of a community rodeo as
sociation along the lines of Pendleton's Round
up association.
This may or may not be the solution, but
that there is need for something is evidenced by
the situation that has developed today. We
hope and believe that the Buckaroo Days com
mittee and the Legion will be willing to par
ticipate in working out a satisfactory plan.
Circus Issue
BUCKAROO DAYS committeemen yesterday
complained that the city had cut the license
fee for circuses coming in here, leaving the
carnival fee at $1500.
At least one person misinterpreted the com
plaint to mean that the fair board had cut
the fairgrounds rental for circuses, but was
raising it for the rodeo. The fair board has
toothing to do with the circus fees, and the
two enterprises do not use the same grounds.
All of which shows how easy it is for erroneous
ideas to get around.
The city ordinance provides for a license fee
for carnivals of $1500 for a stand of from one
to six days.
Circuses of the railroad type come in here
for a single day. The council has decided to
pro-rate the fees for circuses on a daily basis.
The fee is now $250 for one day for a circus.
For six days, it would be $1500, or exactly
what a carnival pays for a six-day stand.
That appears fair enough to us. We feel
that it has nothing whatever to do with the
rodeo question.
As for the latter, we think a lot of intelligent
and reasonable people ought to sit down to
gether and work out a constructive program.
Unknown Soldier Speaks
IAM the Unknown Soldier.
You think I sleep beneath a marble slab.
Upon this slab you lay green wreaths, your
tribute to my memory.
I have no name, yet you exalt me. I am a
symbol. Nameless, my tomb is honored because,
with other men, I fell in battle.
We gave our lives. Fjr what? I wonder.
I wonder most today.
An armistice? Forgive me if I laugh. And
if the tears course down your cheeks, weep not
for me, but for the living. I am at peace. For
me the war Is done. Grieve, rather for the
young men doomed to die.
Made in God's image, or our God In man's,
men yet are beast, killing with claw and tooth
to gain their earthly ends.
You call it noble. Your country calls, you
go, mayhap to death. To screaming shell, to
gas that eats your lungs, making of conscious
ness a thousand hells. To death by flame, by
torture. Or you die quickly as I died, in one
swift, awful blast.
You wonder that I speak as nations war
again, sending their sons to death? What
meaning has this day, why lay these wreaths,
if men are still to die because they dare not
live?
I do not know the answer. I only know that
once we fought for peace. That wars might
end.
I have found peace. No more will thirst, nor
pain, nor hunger gnaw my side, nor fever
wrack me on a soldier's bed. I shall not know
the fear of death or fear of life.
I shall not want for aught. I shall not kill,
nor covet. I shall not steal nor lie.
For me there is an end to all you know.
Grieve not for me, I beg of you.
1 grieve for you.

News Behind The News
By PAUL MALLON
WASHINGTON, May 29 Fanciful stories
are getting around about President Tru
man's reasons for turning about so swiftly to
seek congressional authority to draft the rail
and coal strikers. One fictitious yarn being
told is that he was threatened by a congressional
leader with impeachment. That particular
leader merely advised him to act. All his
leaders wanted the action, particularly Senate
Floor Leader Barkley, and members of his
cabinet including Democratic National Chair
man Hannegan who has been suspected by some
democratic congressmen of CIO dealings.
Another common story is that Mr. Truman
was angry and excited. He was certainly
angry. The strike was not only against national
transport but against his administration and
government, as he had already seized the
carriers in the name of government. Whatever
excitement he may have suffered must have
been tempered by the knowledge that the solu
tion he proposed was the one urged on him
several weeks before, for use against Lewis in
the coal strike, by the most weighty con
gressional leaders of his administration.
The most obvious explanation is the true
one, although it was not much mentioned in
the spectacular developments. He had to act.
He had no government if he did not move.
He might continue to collect taxes and issue
orders, but the unions had made it plain they
did not intend to obey. A government which
is not obeyed is no government.
Scope Exaggerated
THE scope of the action also has been grossly
over estimated. CIO unioneers have been
shouting they have lost the right to strike,
but this manifestly is not true. Anyone can
strike against anyone excepting only the gov
ernment. One senator yowled that the pro
posal would make workers "subservient to the
tyranny of management." Management got .no
rights from the plan, but was to lose profits
during government operation. Strikes against
management could continue.
Strikers would be drafted, under the original
Truman proposition, to do their own work for
pay (not in the army at S60 a month but for
their increased wages) only if they refused to
work after the government had seized a busi
ness operation and the government could only
seize an operation which is "vitally necessary
to the national economy" in the opinion of the
president. Obviously he could not seize the
Amalgamated Clothing Workers of Sidney Hill
man which could hardly become vitally neces
sary to the national economy unless the strike
had lasted some years and the people were
going naked, if even then.
By all reasonable interpretation, you must
conclude that the last-resort draft would only
affect those basic raw materials unions like
coal, national transport like the railroads, and
such CIO outfits primarily as the public util
ities unions which could cutoff nationally elec
tricity, possibly steel, but hardly autos in peace
time, frankly it would appear to affect the
leftwing unions and CIO crowd less, much less
than the rightwing unioneers such as the
brotherhoods and the Lewis coal miners, whose
boss is republican, if the men are nbt.
What the proposal did was to make their
right to strike subservient to the right of the
nation to live.

Moon To Black Out Venus
In Saturday's Sky Drama
Venus, the planet whose day
time visibility last summer start
ed a local Jap balloon scare, can
attain be seen by daylight and
on Saturday will be a principal
performer -in a sky drama that
has caught the interest of local
astronomy fans.
A. B. Epperson, who set up in
struments at The Herald and
News office a year ago to help
people locate the planet in the
sky. said today that Venus will
be blacked out by the moon Saturday.
"This phenomenon is some
what similar to an eclipse,
in this case it is called an
cultation.' " he said. "On
date, the moon, which will be
very thin new moon, will pass
between the earth and Venus
and will obscure the latter for
about two hours. In the absence
of local assistance in the calcu
lations, I believe that the 'im
mersion' or black-out time will
occur at 3:30 p. m., and the 'em
mersion,' the coming-out-from
under, will occur at 5:30. During
the twilight hours, Venus will
have passed away from the
bright side of the sun, but
will continue, as it is at this
writing, to be the bright eve
ning star in the west.
"At our elevation of 4000 feet
here in Klamath Falls, we are
blessed with a very clear at
mosphere for such observations
in the daytime, as well as at
night. Don't expect to see Venus
directly between the prongs of
the moon, such as is seen in the
star and crescent of the Turkish
flag, for there is quite a solid
chunk of opaque moon that is
not illuminated. Neither will it
be a case of now you see it and
now you don't. I anticipate
Venus will merely fade out at
the time given.
"Look due south at 2 p. m. and
quite high in the heavens, for
the moon and Venus, as they ap
proach what astronomers call
conjunction, will be 24 degrees
above the celestial equator, or
in other words, 18 degrees down
the meridian from the zenith.
The sun at noon that day will
be 21 degrees from the zenith.
Venus will be at the left of the
moon, which at that time, being
a one-day-old moon, will not be
too plainly visible," Epperson
concluded.
