SUBSCRIPTION RATXS: Er rarrlar jnonth Sl.oo y niall -month $1.00 n mall By mall months U SO ...Jr W OO Today's Roundup By MALCOLM EPLEY ABOUT this time of year, It has become customary in this column to take a quick look back at the shipping season in Klamath's remarkable potato Industry, it seems that it is always worth comment, and certainly so this year. Figures given elsewhere in a news story show that the basin shipped more than 12, 000 carloads of potatoes to markets in the 1945-46 season. These are in addition to some 2000 carloads which remain In the area for local con- Gumntinn nr for Rperl. The above-12,000 figure on trtLi carlot shipments is somewhat surprising, for the advance official estimates were for about 11,600 carloads. About a year ago, when in cessant rains had badly hampered planting and rotted a lot of planted seed, it seemed im possible that this year's shipments could be even close to 12,000. But there are the figures, right off Ross Aubrey's little black book. And up go the value estimates on the 1945-46 crop. When Charley Henderson put out his agricultural income tabulation for 1945 a few weeks ago, he set the potato crop value at $9, 929 672. On the basis of what has happened late in the season, he has raised his sights. The new figure is $10,250,000. a a 20 Years Growth NOW, let's go back over 20 years of potato growing history in the Klamath basin. The official figure for potato shipments in 1925-26 was 135 carloads. The value of the crop that year was $181,666. Klamath farmers planted spuds on 1142 acres in 1925, whereas, 20 years later, they planted 28,098 acres to this crop. But it wasn't just acreage increases that brought potato production figures skyward in those two decades. - The government figure on per acre produc tion in 1925 was 101.4 bushels. The figure for the 1945 crop year was 340 bushels. a a a Stability THE lumber industry of this area looks ahead to at least several months of stabilized labor conditions, as a result of negotiations with both unions in the past few weeks. Wage increases of 5 cents an hour have been agreed upon for both CIO and AFL employes. In the case of the AFL, the recommended agree ment states the purpose is to set wages until Jan. 1, 1947, while the CIO set-up names April 1, 1947 in the same connection. In a time of considerable industrial trouble and production blocks, it looks as if the Klam ath industry is set to go right on sawing wood. That is good news for everybody. Earl Warren's remarkable political feat in California will make him a marked man in consideration of the presidential possibilities for 1948. It seems inevitable his name will pop up in any discussion of that situation. electorate to challenge the grasp of the com munists for controls. Earlier the socialists had been the most important challengers of com munism. Now the communists are trying to arouse anti-Catholic sentiment by calling this new chal lenge a religious movement, and attributing it largely to the Catholic church, but it is not religious in nature. The issues it raises are not religious in character and of no religious sig nificance except in common resistance to state ism as a religion, which has been atheistic in character. There are no available forces of Christian democracy in France, Italy and much of western Europe, outside the Catholic church, to which the bulk of the Christian population adheres. But this bulk includes many socialists and indeed is unified politically only in its re sistance to communism. a a a a Communist Tactics THE only change in truth then is the growth of the power of Christian democracy in this bulk. The socialists had heretofore dem onstrated the greatest political power against the communists, but they compromised their position by collaboration in France and else where. In this accurate consideration of the matter, it would then be a serious mistake for us to fall for the communist propaganda and mis interpret the precise nature of results which are going our way at long last, and give them a religious nature as the communists and their propagandists wish us, thus furnishing water on their wheel against our own best interests. The communists are simply centering their at tack upon the Catholics, in order to have their own resistance joined by other religious de nominations such as Protestants and Jews not only in Europe but throughout the world. Behind the simultaneous report of the United Nations committee investigation on Spain lie the same discernible strings. The report pe culiarly held that Spain's Franco was not a menace to world peace now but would be when the U.N. assembly meets in September (for reasons not stated), and he should be kicked out then. Now there are few believers in Christian principles in Spain who also are not Catholics, but Gibralter is more important to the world than Spain in the matter of peace. As Gibralter will still be there presumably in September, the report drawn by the chair manship of a British possession, Australia, created much perplexity. Indeed, inspired stories immediately came to the press from responsible American diplomats that the com mittee had exceeded its authority in recom mending action because it was appointed to find the facts about how much of a threat to world peace Franco really was. Few authorities think Britain will join the UNO to rout Franco by the provided means (bombers, etc.) or others so soon and thus open another nation to Russia, which, if it came to power in Spain, would sit upon the biggest link in the British lifeline. A growth of a Christian democratic movement in Spain, which would assure some future moderation, is unquestion ably what is needed first SIDE GLANCES V II i s- M IB .1-1 M.IP f f i ll com. im tv nth stiver tuc. t m ra u. . wt, or? 6t "Your father doesn't like it if we lake too ninny vojjola blcs lie wants to come out mul gloat over the anlen nil summer!" WHET News Behind The News By PAUL MALLON WASHINGTON, June 6 The European elections have projected a new political course for the western half of the continent The surprise in France was the growth of the popular republican movement which is best described as Christian democracy (parliamentar ianism, freedom for all parties, individual lib erty), and thus represents the same trend as the unexpected size of the vote for the mon archy in Italy and the successes of the Catholic centrists and Christian democrats in Holland a few weeks earlier. In each instance, a similar new political force came rising up out of the No Future in It fHETHER this development had anything do with the resignation of the im mediate father of UNO, Edward Stettinius, as our man in its leadership, is subject to legi timate speculation because it developed immed iately after the report My personal opinion is that there are American and British diplo mats who have found the promised incessant haggling with the Russians as hardly a desir able life prospect. Some may feel there is no future in it, in view of the stand of the Rus sians resisting compromises common to western civilization. I do not know what the life in surance rates on diplomats dealing with the Russians runs now, but I do know some men who have found it far from conducive to eiu.e. aealtn or happiness. However, I have no personal knowledge beyond the announce ' " "tottipius decided at this time to hold Mr. Truman to a personal promise to let him go when the organization got definitely under way. The election results demonstrate only that political arguing with the communists is enter ing a new phase, in which our viewpoint is more powerfully represented, but do not bring settled conclusions within easy sight. Also demonstrated is the fact that in free and open elections the communist program has widely lost popularity since the end of war. Even in adjoining Czechoslovakia Russia barely squeezed a majority. The World Today By DeWITT MacKENZIE aw , i r u , t Those two bitter political op ponents England's ruling social ists and the conservatives whom they unseated in the last general election have found common ground in their fear that, as former Prime Minister Churchill puts it "the seeds of a new world war are being sown" in the areas under Russian influ ence in eastern Europe. This general theme was em phasized by both parties in the full-dress debate on foreign policy in commons the past two days. Foreign Minister Ernest Bevin began with the statement that permanent peace in Europe could be guaranteed "only if Russia enters freely into the European settlement." He added that one of the greatest obstacles to peace is that Russian diplo mats appear to believe that "the security of Russia can only be maintained when every country in the world adopts the Soviet system." Churchill Rampant Churchill, who has been rid ing the socialists hard under the lash of his clever tongue, took the floor and declared in hand some terms that the government had made "an important con tribution to world peace" by a "resolute denunciation of com munism." He praised Bevin as ''a representative of much that is wise and courageous in the British character." This solidarity of viewpoint between England's political ex tremes is significant of their mounting concern over the con tinued communist thrust west ward. It has taken the approach of the towering red tidal wave to bring the socialists and tories together but together they stand in this crisis. By coincidence or otherwise the British debate on foreign policy came as France had just finished another general election and Italy was voting on the ques tion ot wneiner it snouid retain the monarchy or have a republic. Both these countries are vital strategic theaters in the Euro pean set-up, and in both of them the real Question at stake has been the extent of the communist strength, which has been de veloping under an intensive and systematic red drive. Franc Moves to Right In France the communists sustained a set-back and there was a moderate swine to the right. In Italy the people chose a repuouc ana me king is leav ing his native land. The middle- of-the-road Christian democrats came out well on top, with the socialists second and the com munists close behind. However, the important point to reinemoer is mat communism retains great strength in both r ranee ana Italy, That s a fact of moment to western dem ocracy, and especially to Britain wmcn is standing in the path OX that red tidal wave. William II was England's only bachelor king.
