In fact, , pine beetles are considered by bine loggers and lumbermen to be more destructive than the notorious "red demon." i Insects kill Individual trees and small groups of trees. tThelr work is not spectacular, but deadly. They harvest mil )lons of feet of Klamath coun try timber, removing that 1 1 f V. nf the rocnumi IHnt i jieeaeo. ior our jaoor-suppiying wuuau-y. ' How important timber people regard the in ject problem was forceably demonstrated recently when they learned that the local gov ernment entomologists were out of travel funds to carry on spring field work and the bureau pf entomology and plant quarantine at Wash ington, D. C, had refused to help out. 1 Individually and collectively through the Svestern Pine association they went to bat, bombarding bureaucrats, congressmen and sen ators with telegrams and letters. The messages emphasized the importance of a continued fight against the bugs, politics and bureaucrats not withstanding. a Big Losses TYPICAL was the letter shot Washington ward by Elmer E. Hall, logging superin tendent, McCloud River Lumber company. He wrote, in part: "Few of us in the lumber industry are in accord on all problems that come our way. But when we see the best old growth timber destroyed by insects in amounts far exceeding the losses from fire and other causes, we do not disagree. We want to do something to stop it. "Pine beetle losses during a ten-year period in this section of the state (California) according to government figures, would have kept our mill, second largest in the state, in logs for more than 20 years . . . Nor is there much point to talk forestry in the pine region when we fail to plug the greatest drain on the tim ber supply." According to Mel Barron, assistant general manager of the Goose Lake Box company at Alturas, beetle losses in the Alturas area ex ' cecd 10 million board feet a year. The annual cut of timber down there is only 15 million. Mel, for good reason, is also a protester against bureaucratic indifference to the beetle menace. a a Search Is On THESE and other expressions of interest in pine beetle investigations and control brought quick action. Funds from the bureau were made available. An entomologist arrived in Klamath county a week or so ago and is now searching for bugs in this territory. We're not hoping he finds them, because we hope they aren't here. But if they are, it's impor tant to know about it in time to do something. Too often in the past, bug depredations have been permitted to go unnoticed too long. It is important that a sound continuing program be set up, adequately financed to do the job properly. Klamath Flyer Will See Bomb Although he hasn't reached his 21st birthday yet, 1st. Lt. Ed ward L. Petzoldt, son of Mr. and Mrs. Louis P. Petzoldt of Klamath Falls, is already a vet eran of the Pacific war with the Japanese and in a matter of weeks can add the experience of seeing the army-navy atomic bomb tests, for his present duty assignment is a radio operator on one of the F-13 photographic planes photographing the ex plosion. Petzoldt left school at George town university, Washington D. C, to enter the army as a navigation cadet in July, 1943. After completion of transition training at Clovis, N. II., he was assigned to the 29th bombard ment group of the 20th air force and transferred to Guam. During his combat tour with the 20th air force, he was awarded the Distinguished Flying Cross, the Air Medal with three Oak Leaf clusters, and the South west Pacific theater ribbon with three battle stars. After being discharged, Pet zoldt plans to return to his home and will enroll in Oregon State college to complete his college training. Discharged Sgt. Rex. H. Morehouse, 3311 Homedale. and T5 Robert B. Follett, box 266, Lakeview, were honorably dis charged from the army June 13 at Fort Lewis, Wash.

S. senator (not Claghorn) has been Quoted as say ing army and navy officials confidentially told congressional committees there might be an other war, tills time with Russia, and the sena tor added: 'The industrialists are mortally afraid of communism and figured we had better do something while we have the bomb." Not much Interest has been created here but some authorities want to find out what army and navy officials said there might be another war. However, no one seems to be after the identity of the person who told him industrial Interests of the U. S. are trying to start another war. Now it might be possible some army and navy officials, seeing Russia has not made peace treaties and has an army five times greater than ours, have taken military prepara tions which is their business. Indeed, Mr. Tru man himself showed his skepticism in the siza of his defense budget, retention of the draft, etc. Everyone with sufficient intelligence to absorb visible facts knows there has been no peace, and communist revolutions are under way in Iran and China. They could have informed the senator another war is possible. As there is no other world power of sufficient military strength to attack, except Russia, the senator might even have heard war with Russia is not impossible. a a a Who Wonts War? BUT who told the senator "the industrial in terests" of this country want war That is what Moscow claims. That is the communist propaganda on the subject. The industrial inter ests, or the financial portion of them, are the internationalists, and always have been. A top Wall Street attorney, George Foster Dulles, for instance, has advocated conspicuously against war, particularly through the churches. But any minor industrialist who does want war, would probably have already undergone a sanity test. Industry has three to five years of unlimited markets in this country ahead, if it can only get production started. Industry wants to avoid war, and make money at home. But the senator who said this was Glen Tay lor of Idaho who was campaigning for a friend, George Donert, to defeat his Idaho senatorial colleague. Senator Gossett, in the democratic primary. A lot of democrats in Idaho must have believed him on this or similar subjects, as his candidate won the race. For a U. S. senator to use the Isvestia, Pravda and Molotov line against a sitting democrat in a party primary, raises a question of propriety the party must decide. But unless the people of this country insist upon truth in international affairs, they are all going to fall for the Russian propaganda, and destroy the foreign policy now founded on non-partisan unity. Other signs have been developing that the policy has not been strengthened lately. The substitution of Senator Austin for Ed Stettinius at the top of our delegation to UNO caused newsmen to ask him about Russia, a question upon which he had recently been silent. In old speeches he talked like- he lacked the under standing of dealing with Russia, which Stettin ius had acquired from long experience. Indeed last Sunday Austin told a commencement: "We have seen such a great country as Rusaia find ing ways of unilateral security and we can't blame them when they see us quit." That is not true at all. Russia started mak ing unilateral peace treaties as soon as the war was over, (Poland, etc.). No one had quit seek ing joint solutions and no one else was making unilateral treaties, but this nation was unifiedly working to get a general peace, through UNO and otherwise. Indeed we have not quit to this very moment. The necessities for truth were never more grave than now. Yinema Floor Turned Down It was announced today that plans for adding a fourth floor to the Winema hotel have been indefinitely postponed. Application was made to the civilian production administra tion for materials for the job, and Clifford A. Dunn, one of the owners, has announced that the application was turned down. Stating as the reason for re fusing the application, the CPA informed the owners that since building materials are so scarce, the small amount on hand must be diverted into only necessary building, particularly with re- j gard to building to benefit vet erans. All plans were ready to go ahead with the project upon the okay by the CPA, but they will have to be temporarily shelved. However, the original plan will be carried out when materials are available.

There we have the strung spectacle of the mother country notifying tho warring Indian political factions that If they can't reconcile their differences enough to work together in provisional government, then she will set up an Interim re giino arbitrarily. She will start the government going with such Indians -as are willing to serve. In short, if the fledglings won't take to the air on their initiative, they will be shoved mil of the nest and muilo to fly. What has happened Is this: The two major political parties the all Indian congress, made up largely of Hindus, and the Moslem league decided after much burning of midnight oil that the British government's new offer of full sovereignty was worthy of provisional trial. Thereupon the viceroy. Field Marshal Lord Wavell, proposed that the Interim government (that is, cabinet) be composed of five representative from the all Indiiin congress, five from the Moslem league and four from the smaller sections of India's four hundred millions, including the lowly "untouch ables." Hindu-Moslem Rivalry This precipitated a fresh dead lock. The congress followers, who outnumber the Moslems three to one, weren't willing to concede parity to their rivals, and the Moslems wouldn't take less. And that's where the mat ter stands as this Is written. There has been no Indication that any of the Indian leaders have given recognition to the fact that the exact composition of the provisional cablnrt really doesn't matter, since the next step would be the selection ol a constituent assembly in which there would be proportional representation. This assembly would draw up the constitution for a new federal government. Anyway, faced by this new statement. Lord Wavell and the British government mission issued a statement which served notice that there's going to be a provisional government Irre spective of hold-outs. I've met Wavell, by the way, and while he Is a gentle and friendly sort, he can be most persistent. What effect this edict will have re mains to be seen, but hope still burns. Precedent Established The British government thus has established a precedent, so far as my memory goes, by thrusting independence onto the mighty sub-continent which Is the greatest prize of the empire. But while the action Is a prcce- There Are $$$$$$$$$ IN CROFT EASTER LILIES rMmrrltl grawtrs art s.llltif rich, riatal Crafl urtlnr alack. BaaUU. Vtarllnit ana Twa-Vaaf Olst.

As I've previously reported In this column, when I was In India In 1043 I raited the ques tion of whether Just such strong arm methods weren't culled for, and got an ufflrmullvo response from prominent Indian leaders. Sir TeJ Muliadur Snpru, the famous luillan liberal, was one of these. Sir TeJ Is noted as a mediator and often has been called In to brldgo gups between the British and tho extreme nationalists. 11a is a Kashmiri Brahmin, which Is the highest Hindu caste, but despite Ills aristocracy he is so democratic that he has even dined with the outcast "untouchables." I visited Sir TeJ In his home at Allaha bad and during a lung talk about th grave differences be tween tho great political parties, asked him whut he thought of the "strong-arm" Idea of bring ing them together. He replied: "I believe that Britain should use the strong-arm method and set up a provisional national government. Let those Indian parties who don't want to play the game slay outside.
