Today's Roundup Br MALCOLM EPLEY HOME again and it i Umc to conclude thote travel chronicles that have appeared in this apace (or the last month. In fart, we made it to Klamath Falls in the midst of last weekend i beat wave, coming In ahead of the daily travelogues we bad mailed along the war. That's inevitably the way it happens when we mail home a daily column. When we are going away from Klamath, we can t keep enough columns moving to fill the space daily. When we start home, we get ahead of our mailed material. It's a good device for giving us time to catch up on our EPLEY work when we get home, but a little embarrassing. People insist we're not supposed to be here. If we had known about that local whiskerino, we might have had a good growth of brush behind which to hide for the first few days after our arrival, while dis patches were still coming in from us from such places as Billings, Montana, and St. Paul, Minn. YESTERDAY'S article was dated at Mack s Inn, Idaho. The run from Mack's Inn to Boise was made the next day, and from Boise into Klamath on Sunday. Both days were terrifically hot. ' The desert between Mountain Home. Idaho, and Boise, was blistering. Along CS highway 30 we saw scores of stalled cars. Some had simply bogged down in the heat, and many were stopped with tire trouble. A lot of people were trying to drive with the hoods of their cars up. That isn't so simple with the modern hoods that lift up from the front, but some motorists had achieved - it by using straps, sticks and other devices, and they came down the road, virtually stand ing up at the wheel in order to peer over the top of the raised hoods. Sunday's run from Boise to Klamath was made' easily by 4:30 p. m., assisted by that change in standard time out in southeastern Oregon. Incidentally, the Oregon highway com mission has placed signs at the point of change, telling you to turn your watch forward or backward. It's the only place on our two way transcontinental journey that we saw signs of this nature, and we think they're a swell idea. On Stinking Water mountain (yes, that's right) we ran into highway construction, but it slowed our progress only slightly. The desert was hot, and we think the Oregon high way commission might well make a desert stopping place for motorists out at Alkali lake, between Burns and Lakeview, where mo torists could get drinking water and rest for a moment at a tiny oasis. WE are deeply appreciative of all who have read these travelogues without stopping the paper or throwing bricks through our win dow. It has been an interesting trip, and an interesting Job writing these chronicles. All of our experiences were of the most ordinary character, and anyone making a simi lar trip might well have more interesting ones. We hope all itchy-foot readers do get to do a little auto traveling before long, and our wish for them all is happy motoring, and a good and not too expensive bed for every night of the Journey. By D.WITT MacKENZIE Associated Press foreign Allairs Analyst THE full extent of the damage done by the under-water atomic bomb in Bikini lagoon hasn't yet been determined because death-dealing radio-artivity still hangf about, but there s plenty to confirm what we have to do with a giant of awful might. Howard Blakeslee. Associated Press science writer aboard the USS Appalachian at the scene, says that this latest bomb was "prob ably the most powerful man-made force ever loosed perhaps even stronger than the bomb that razed most of Nagasaki last August" In any event, we know that atomic energy is the greatest force on which puny man ever has succeeded in putting his hallcr. It is capable of unlimited destruction or can be made to work wonders. The method of developing and controlling this new-found might is the world's No. 1 prob lem of the moment. And yet even as the ex perts were detonating the under-water bomb at Bikini, over here in New York the highly explosive question of atomic control was being used for a football at the conference of the U.N. atomic energy commission. One shudders at the thought. SIDE GLANCES Wholly Altruistic THE proposal of the United States for global supervision of atomic energy once more was un for consideration. This is the wholly altruistic offer of Uncle Sam to destroy his store of atomic bombs and share his atomic secrets for peaceful use if the world will set up adequate safeguards to make sure this terrible weapon never again can be used as an instrument of war. As you will recall, this involves surrender of the veto power by the five major nations on all matters pertaining to atomic development. It provides for the creation of an international atomic development authority with absolute power over atomic raw materials and pro duction. It calls for the adoption of an inter national law '"with teeth," providing for severe punishment of violators, and endowing the in ternational atomic development authority with the right of investigation in any country. This proposal was put before the U.N. atomic energy commission on June 14. On June 19 Andrei A. Gromyko, Soviet delegate to the U.N. and representative to the atomic energy com mission, rejected the United States plan to abolish the veto on atomic matters and pre sented his own atomic control plan which would put the whole system of control under the security council and the United Nations set-up. Gromyko Bomb July 12 the United States presented a further memorandum amplifying and ex plaining its proposal. Yesterday Gromyko ex ploded his own atomic bomb by flatly rejecting the American proposals once more. At first glance it might appear that the Soviet suspects Uncle Sam of hiding trickery under the cloak of benefaction. However, that suspicion would be so utterly absurd that we must look further for an explanation of the Soviet attitude. After all, Uncle Sam has the whole bag of atomic tricks in his hands al ready and so why if he were up to mischief would he be offering to give away the greatest power man ever has possessed? The Moscow plan, proposing to keep the whole control, within the United Nations ma chinery, cling tenaciously to that veto power. Observers note that under this arrangement the U.N. control couldn't institute an investi gation within the borders of any nation possess ing the veto power. In short, Russia apparent ly isn't willing to lessen her sovereignty to the extent of granting the atomic control agency the. blanket right of investigation within the Soviet Union. She demands the privilege of vetoing investigation. So. the question of atomic control is about back where it started. in l.i. w, t. a s w. trr I- lF "Too bad we don't live near where they're building those new race tracks, dear 1 might be able to rent' one of the tubler Telliii," The Editor aw.rs hm M war 4 tfik ntt wrms-a, Ifftkl OM Or pr aa pdI 9 fft4 f air ( f ri ! f a ralra STATIC By BILL JENKINS Old man weather seems to be having a fine time teasing us this year. No spring, no sum mer to speak of until the hot weather hit, and now he goes off on a tantalizing tangent and sends cloudy mornings and hot tolternoons. meres no account ing for it. Whiskerino plans seems to be under way, finally, and the un fortunate guys who thought the deal was off and had theirs knocked off have got it all to do over again. Bob "Gem Session" McCarl is going to grow the red dest set of whiskers if he does nothing else, according to him, and he s got a good start. Court (kangaroo style) will be held on violators every Saturday after noon at the courthouse lawn, they tell me, so let's get buyy on the hirsute angle before you're dragged down. The Jaycee paper drive, slated lor last week, has been moved tip to this coming Sunday, and I eople are asked to leave the bur.dlcs they have collected on the nearest street corner some time Saturday evening so the boys will have plenty of time to pick them up. Yesterday turned out to be Just about as gloomy a news day as it is possible to find. What with drownings, near elec trocutions, accidental shootings, people being dragged by horses and the lake still being combed for another body you'd think K Falls was a tough place to live in. Maybe it is, at that. I found out yesterday just how mad a guy can get when he wants to do something and can't. All I wanted to do was get back on the ground, but I couldn't any more get the Diane I was flying on the ground than I could get it to the moon. Every time I'd come in and break my glide I'd just pick up a little more speed and then bounce 40 feet in the air, take off and try it again. a I suppose there have to be days like that, but for a while I was afraid that my beard would turn white be fore I managed to get down. Showiest thing on Main street these days is undoubtedly that Brand new, shiny Chrysler con vertible on display at Dimbat's. A fine looking piece of machin ery to say. the least, but a bad influence on the average man. You look at it for a while and it naturally follows that you want one like it. Or at least I do. The 13-round bout for the world's middleweight title be tween Champion Tony Zale and Challenger Rocky Graziano, scheduled for tonight, has been called off due to the illness of Zale. Dates for the rematch ! will be announced at a later date. Fire Burns On In Washington By The Associated Press Hopes for bringing the 4000 acre grass and timber fire under control during the night were expressed last night as several hundred fighters working with heavy equipment confined the Little Spokane river blaze to some 400 acres. Two hundred Geiger field soldiers were added to the sup pression crew yesterday after noon when a brisk wind, aided by the sixth successive day of above 90 temperatures, caused the blaze to pick up speed. Other grass fires were report ed in and around Spokane and four small forest fires were re ported in western Washington. One was in Snohomish county, two in Clark and one near Bin gen In Klickitat. Fire caused by an overheated electric elevatoY motor was blamed for destruction of the Whitstran grain warehouse and 100 bushels of wheat at Prosser Tuesday night. Loss was esti mated at $20,000.

And they shouldered the axe; They hewed out the trail. By the sweat of their backs. No thinking of name. Or its perpetuation; But only of saving The vast immigration. No asking for grants. Through political channels; Or thinking of fame. In history's annals. They led in the settler, Weary but grim; And pointed the way They had finished for him. Now I cannot see Why. a century late. That it makes any 'diff If it's called Applegate. The road is for everyone Not for a few; Why not Just rejoice That they saw the thing through? Let's not tarnish the mem'ry Of a tough job well done But deep in our hearts. Let us thank every one. When we set up the markers. Whether road, route, or tra'l, The important fact is That they didn't fail. They worked together. For the good of the nation; And left us a lesson In cooperation. Power Line Survey For Dam Underway PORTLAND. July 25 Preliminary surveys for a 48 mile transmission line to pro vide power for construction of the Detroit dam on the North Santiam river are under way, S. E. Schultz, Bonneville power administration chief engineer reported today. The line will hook up with BPA's Oregon City-Salem cir cuit near Chemawa.

Up the turbid Thames, the king s men. and the men of the Worshipful Company of Vint ners and the Worshipful Com pany of Dyers will trave) In six rowing skiffs the next three weeks. Just as they have once a year for five centuries, to divide the swans of England ainougsl them. And when the sun sets, the riverside taverns will echo tu the cheerful laughter of the hearty watermen who leave their Jobs for these few weeks to follow the ancient custom ef "swan-upplng." The little procession of be flaggcd rowing boats will go from Southwark to Oxford, marking those swans which be long to the Vintners Or the Dyers, throwing the king's swans back Into the river un touched. King Once Owned All "The king once owned nil the swans in England" explained Fred Turk, the king's swankeen er who directs the "upplng." He takes his two brothers with him, Richard as governor for the Vintner's company swans, Herbert for the Dyers'. Like so many ancient crafts in England, swan-upping Is a family busi ness.
