tO be fair, It fhould be reported tht Portland
people were not generally aware that their
recent activity in the airline aituation might
brave a aerioui blow to the
aviation interest of Klamath
Falls.
i That is the report of Klam
ath men who went to Portland
tills week to go into this situ
ation. " They found that most Port
landers thought they were
merely backing a project
Which would benefit Portland,
the objective being to get a
Don -stop Western Airlines
plane flight between Portland
and San Francisco.
These people were surprised to learn of the
possibility that their efforts might delay the
start of United Airlines operation through
Klamath Falls, now set for July 16.
The Klamath men reported that after the
local view was presented, the general reaction
jfi Portland was that the people there wanted
the Western Airlines flight, bringing in com
petition and more service to Portland, but
they don't want it at the expense of Klamath
Falls.
m If that idea can be sustained and spread in
Portland, the danger in their activity up there
aiay be removed.
m a a
background
WESTERN AIRLINES did not apply, in the
recent west coast cases, for permission
(o fly non-stop between San Francisco and
Portland. They proposed a line from those
Points, with intermediate stops including Klam
ath Falls and Bend.
! The CAB refused their application, and gave
United Airlines Klamath Falls and Bend as
Intermediate stops between Portland and San
Francisco.
! The Portland group now has the idea that
.they can get the case re-opened with a non-stop
Cight scheme for Western.
The local view is that an attempt to re-open
the case might delay operations which were
Authorized by CAB when it rendered its de
tision. The Klamath men feel that the Western
Jon-stop project, if it is to be taken to the
CAB, should be presented as a new case not in
he re-opening of the old one that took many
snonths to complete.
Klamath has no objection to the Western
Airlines project. It didn't care whether West
Cm or United got the trunk line authority to
Jerve Klamath Falls.
But it wants Portland and everybody else to
itep hands off the concluded case which at
ing last provided service to Klamath Falls.
Jt should and undoubtedly will stand by its
funs on that issue.
State Education Board
Ih C. GROESBECK, Klamath man who has
js just resigned from the state board of
.higher education, performed outstanding serv
ice to the state on that body. Mr. Groesbeck
fvorked at it He was more -than a mere at
tendant at state board meetings. He had the
Jjme, the talent for analysis of educational prob-r
ems, and the public interest, to do a first
lass job and he did it
As a successor to Mr. Groesbeck, Governor
fnell has named Mrs. Z. B. McNaughton of
ortland.
Mrs. McNaughton is undoubtedly well quali
fied, but it seems to us the governor should
Save kept in mind the need for representation
jjn the board from the upstate. Four members
f the board are now from Portland. Three
Ire from the lower Willamette valley. Only
Jwo one from Coos Bay and the other from
ohn Day represent parts of the state well
femoved from the Portland metropolitan area.
a Incidentally, the name of Harlan Bosworth,
local power company executive, a Cornen
graduate and a civic leader of many years, was
mentioned as a possibility for the post vacated
by Mr. Groesbeck. We do not know if he
would have even considered the appointment,
but we do know he would have made an
excellent member of the board. It is unfor
tunate political expediency precluded an offer
of the post to htm.
News Behind The News
By PAUL MALLON
WASHINGTON, June 14 Mr. Byrnes went
forth to the latest fray in Paris to
decide the fate of the world in a somewhat
different spirit than he went before and dif
ferent also from the British.
Last time he threatened to make treaties
separate from recalcitrant Russia if necessary
to gain a peace. This time he took the view
"if we fail it Is a defeat for mankind."
By contrasts, the British Mr. Bevln was sent
on his way with the strong backing of parlia
ment. Some inner reports suggest the labor
party conference may let critics of Bcvin loose,
but this can hardly suggest a weakening of
policy, as conference action has already been
arranged to reject the communist party appli
cation for affiliation and debar it from even
seeking admission to the labor party again.
Parliament Unified
EQUALLY indicative of unified British parlia
mentary backing was the almost full agree
ment between the Bevin and Attlee labor
speeches to parliament and the Churchill op
position speeches. The tone of parliament
was perhaps accurately portrayed in a speech
unreported in this country by H. Strauss, mem
ber from the English universities who said:
"The issue is between the rule of law and
despotic power. If Mr. Bevin could not succeed
in maintaining the principles he regarded as
essential, the house would forgive him if he
came back confessing his failure. What it
would not forgive was if he abandoned any of
those values vital to survival of our civiliza
tion." But Mr. Byrnes went back proclaiming he
would not again present any proposal to the
. - foreign ministers along with
Britain. This may have indicated a wilting
of cooperation between the two leading free
democracies, which would be just what Russia
wanted, as she has charged there exists an
Anglo-American "bloc."
The British have a different idea of this also.
Churchill said: "To form a bloc was a crime,
according to every communist in every land
unless it be a communist bloc." Attlee sub
stantially assented to this interpretation, and
the further Churchill assertion that the com
munists thought it was "a bloc" to be on good
terms with your neighbor, whereas Russia
has not only formed a bloc through Europe
and Asia, but is keeping an iron curtain around
it.
Truth Advocated
STRAUSS gave the key to what may be
British tactics when he observed the only
way to deal with the Russians was to stick to
truth and make them stick to it. "Nothing
should be held back out of a sense of fear,"
he wisely said.
The contrasts of these British and American
(Byrnes) farewell talks offer a perplexing pros
pect at the beginning of the conference, which
cannot be answered by any inside information
I have been able to obtain here. Is Anglo
American cooperation to be broken? Has it
already been broken? Does Mr. Byrnes really
mean what he said or is he just talking
Russian? While these inquiries' cannot be
answered safely except by events at Paris, it
may be accurately reported that his statements
indicate no determination, similar to Britain's,
especially to face the truth of the matter, such
as, for instance, in Germany (main point before
the conferees). In the Russian zone, a com
munist state has been set up; in our zone and
in the British zone, two separate free democ
racies are operating. The Russian totalitarian
state is simply not soluble with either of the
free states, although the two free states are
compatible and could be combined.
It would be a far greater defeat for mankind
for us to turn free states over to Russia than
for Mr. Byrnes to fail to get a deal .with Russia.
SIDE GLANCES
l From Other
Editors
J (Eugene Register Guard)
n For the coming school year, at
least, the state board of higher
Education will not launch the
Broposed "veterans college" in
Hie now unused Marine Bar
racks at Klamath Falls. The de
cision is very wise. It is diffi
cult to see where the state board
would find $600,000 for this
Venture without raiding already
Umited budgets for the existing
institutions. There is reason
to believe that with the housing
firojects now under way at the
University of Oregon and Ore
gon State college, and with
Judicious use of the Vanport fa
cilities, the peak of the veteran
load may be served.
The state board has left the
floor open to revive the Klamath
project for another year if
an emergency in veteran train
ing should develop. This also
8 quite practical. In January
the 1047 legislature will con
vene. If a real emergency has
developed by that time, the leg
glature can be asked to find
the funds for the Klamath pro
ject or any others which may
be necessary. The legislature
is also the proper body to de
bate the establishment of a sys
tem of junior colleges in Klam
ath and other cities, and that is
really the underlying issue in
this situation.
This newspaper has taken the
position that Oregon is not rich
er.ough to support a far-flung
junior college system. The re
sources of the state are already
strained to support the univer
sity, the state college, the medi
cal school, the three teacher
training colleges and the exten
sion system. A great deal has
been said about building needs
on these campuses but much
i more urgent is the need of ade
i quate funds to hire faculty.
wuamy oi leacning in uregon
higher education has suffered
from inadequate pay.
Nor can the financial prob
lems of higher education in Ore
gon be divorced from the prob
lems of the public schools. They
are clamoring for state support
on par with Washington and
California and their needs in
many localities are desperate.
The Klamath venture was well
intended but poorly conceived.
The legislature is the proper
body to decide whether the state
will gain or lose by acquiring
the Klamath property for edu
cation or any other use. The
legislature will be "a birdseye
view" and many problems fac
ing the state of Oregon and all
its institutions. The oft-quoted
$6,500,000 valuation put on the
Klamath property is deceptive.
That represents cost to Uncle
Sam in wartime. The value to
th state of Oregon, as salvage
for any purpose, will require
careful calculation.
Dental Association
Meets In Portland
Representatives of the Oregon
State Dental association from all
sections of the state have been
invited to attend the associ
ation s 53rd annual meeting.
which opened Thursday morn
ing and is to continue through
Saturday in Portland. Among
the out-of-state leaders in the
dental profession who will at
tend the three-day session are
Dr. Carl Boucher, of Ohio State
university, Dr. J. Eugene Zieg
ler, Los Angeles, and Dr. George
A. Selleck, San Francisco.
Eleven members of the associ
ation are going from Klamath
and one from Merrill. Election
of officers for the coming year
will be held Friday afternoon.

Slater, emcee of the new ABC
KFLW show "Right Down Your
Alley." A bowling show brought
direct from a New York City
bowling alley, the contestants in
this show have to be bright to
bowl. He is asked a qualifying
question, and if he gets that
right he estimates how many
pins he can topple with one ball.
If he sinks as many as he estimat
ed, or more, he gets a dollar
per pin. And so on and so on.
You'll hear it every Sunday at
12:30 over KFLW.

Spud Growers
Attend Meet
Over ISO Oregon, California
and Washington potato growers
attended the Corvallis potato
certification trial plot field day
Wednesday, June 12. Local
growers report the Corvallis
plantings very successful from
a seed test standpoint.
According to Scott Warren.
local White Rose seed grower,
the Corvallis planting compared
very favorably with the Ocean-
side test plot which was visited
by many basin growers in Feb
ruary of tills year. The Corvallis
planting Is a duplication of the
Oceanside planting. Its purpose
is educational and it also pro
vides a check on disease per
centages determined by the
Oceanside test. An effort is
being made to provide green
house testing and earlier reports
than are now possible through
Oceanside sample plantings.
Karl Dehlinger, Klamath Po
tato Growers association presi
dent, present at the Corvallis
filots. reports that disease counts
n various seed lots at Corvallis
closely paralleled counts taken
at Oceanside on the same seed
lots.
Disease expression at Corval
lis was excellent according to
Walt Jendrzejewski, assistant
county agent in Klamath coun
ty. Jendrzejewski reports that
potato samples from insect con
trol plots showed appreciably
lower disease counts than did
samples from plots in which no
Insect control measures were
used. Disease counts were low
est in samples from control
plots on which DDT dust was
used.
Considerable potato seed acre
age in Klamath will be dusted
this year. Detailed experiments
with other insecticides are also
scheduled for Klamath this sea
son, Jendrzejewski said.

The world has seen many mo
mentous International confer
ences during the past decade of
crisis, but the forthcoming show
down in Paris among the big
four must rank among the most
important, for upon Its tucevss
or failuro hingo relations be

allies.
Again tha foreign ministers of
the United States, Britain, Rus
sia and France will meet to try
to break the deadlock over the
European peace treaties. The
outcome will In major degree
lie among the big three Rus
sia on the one hand and on the
other America and Urltnln for
France has been playing the part
of balance among the rest.
Secretary of Stute Byrnes ar
rived in Paris this morning on
President Truman's private
plana "The Sacred Cow," accom
panied by Senators Contially
and Vandenberg as advisers.
And the president himself took
the unusual course of going to
the airport at Washington yes
terday to wish his envovs god
speed an action which perhaps
was c.iciuntcci to emphasize the ;
gravity of tho mission. Secre
tary Uymcs earlier had said
that failure of this conference
would be a disaster for man

U. S. Position Stated
Senator Connally, who is chair-,

unless t h e Paris conference '
achieves "a quick and definite ,

and call a peace conference of
the 21 nations interested In
these treaties.
And over in England only the
day before British Foreign Sec
retary Bevln had announced
that if negotiations bogged down
he would sign separate peace
treaties with the defeated Euro

characterized the Paris confer-

enca as "one last attempt" to
gain Russian cooperation fur
peace.
Thus we find America and
England agreed that pence can
not wait on the differences
among tho big four foreign min
isters. As the blunt llevln put
It: "I don't know what slept we
may take to gel these (real let,
but I say no one nation is going

Well now, all this Is tanta
