TrO most people, the words "forest protection"

against pine oeeues is jusi as
Important as measures to pre
sent and stop fires. In fact,
, pine beetles are considered by
bine loggers and lumbermen
to be more destructive than
the notorious "red demon."

but deadly. They harvest mil

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

charged from the army June 13

PAUL MALLON
WASHINGTON, June 18 One U. 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.

Br D.WITT MacKENZIE
AP Foreign Affairs Analyst
India's progress towards abso
lute iiulvpeiulcnct from England
litis taken a turn which Is with
out a parallel, and one worth
watching.
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-

dent, the idea for It isn't nrw.
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. Let the
