We've been around the area a bit the past lew days, and out in the farm lands one gets the definite feeling of big things happen ing. It has been a particularly interesting personal exper ience for one just returned from a big slice of the nation's . farm regions where huge crops were in the making. It's good to know we're doing all right here at home, too. :.; I -.Vft if "i Basin potatoes are far ahead ft... 4tlt -1 of last year, when a wet late EPLEY spring gave that crop a bad handicap at the start. The potato stands are excellent, and underground the tubers are rounding out nicely. Frost damage has beou negligible. Down in the south end of the basin there are certain selected fields that are virtually ready for the diggers, which will start as soon as the vines are killed. There will be some unusually early shipments this year. Tha major crop, of course, will not be harvested for many weeks, and if we get a long, warm fall without killing frost the basin may yield one of the record spud crops of its history. (The market situation is another story. The outlook isn't too good, at the moment, we are told.) There's quite a story in alsike clover here. The basin has about 9000 acres, a record planting, and the crop prospect is terrific. There's a government subsidy of 7 cents (with some strings attached) and the price situation promises an unprecedented Klamath basin re turn from alsike clover seed. Grain Outlook THE grain outlook is colored a little by con cern over frost damage and lodging. There were three July frosts that may have had unfavorable effects in some areas, although one encounters disagreeing opinion on that point. The barley is exceptionally heavy, there have been winds and rain, and in some fields lodg-' ing is quite extensive. Where this has occur red in fields that are green and damp, it may cause some harvest difficulty and yield re duction. On the other hand, there are many fields where the barley is in first class shape. Wheat and oats stands are generally fav orable. Onion fields look grand at this writing. We didn't get out to that celery set-up near Tulelake, but Earl Ager was displaying a bunch of celery at his store that looked good to us and indicated real promise in that un usual project down there. If you haven't been out for a drive around the basin, and you aren't worried by that jump in the price of gasoline, get out the family car one of these summer weekends and take a look around. It gives you a grand feeling. 'Boom' Town Quadruples Population MILLICAN. Ore.. Aug. 2 UP) This town, whose population has quadrupled in a year and all of whose property buildings, houses, airport has changed . hands twice, is having a boom. A year ago Millican had one resident. Now it's got four. Navy Veteran William A. Mellin, 28, latest man to buy the town, claims it's a fine, honest . place. All it needs is the post office back again, and a well, so he won't hvae to tote water all those miles. As for the property turnover Billy Rahn, who for years held out as mayor, police chief, postmaster, and sole resident of Oregon's "one-man town," sold the place in 1945 and went off to find some neighbors. Mr. and Mrs. George T. Petry, who bought the town from Billy, lived here until Mrs. Petry was killed in a Bend, Ore., fire. Then Petry put the town on sale again.

ROBERTS JR, Associated Press Foreign Affairs Analyst ALMOST . submerged beneath the wrestling at Paris, something new has been added to the formula by which the delegations are seeking peace. The debit and credit clauses of the five draft treaties follow the lines of traditional post war settlements. But also included among the rules laid down for the conduct of defeated nations is a new clause embodying an idea which has be come general only in comparatively recent years that if, as now demonstrated, wars are to involve whole peoples rather than merely the military castes of nations, then the roots of war can be found, and eradicated, among the people. So far, the idea consists merely of words an order that the defeated nations (it's a world wide idea but the treaties apply only to them) shall secure for their own peoples "without distinction of race, sex, language or religion, the enjoyment of human rights and the funda mental freedoms, including freedom of ex pression, of press and publication, of religious worship, of political opinion and of public meeting." Different Meanings FROM one standpoint, it doesn't mean a thing. In almost every country the words them selves mean something different. The United States and Russia already are at loggerheads over the application of this very idea in Poland, Hungary, Romania and elsewhere. Definition itself will involve a bitter process. Coupled with the problems of commercial access to "con trolled" areas, these words encompass, for practical purposes, all of the barriers to work able peace. But it is formal recognition that human rights are basic; that they must be defined, established and protected: that peoples and not merely the corporate bodies of nations are the source of peace or war. Although the new treaty clause was a recom mendation of the human rights commission of the UN's economic and social council, its defini tion probably will be arrived at largely through a more or less independent, worldwide net work of movements. World Bill Of Rights BACK in 1941 Warren Seavey, Harvard law professor, proposed the undertaking. The American Law Institute, Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, American Philosophical society. Commonwealth club and other groups interested a committee of lawyers representing 13 cultures American, Arabic, British, Cana dian, Chinese, French, anti-nazi Germany, Ital ian, Indian, Latin-American, Polish, Russian and Spanish and they have drawn up a composite of human rights from the constitutions of all nations. It is a bill of rights for the world paralleling but surpassing in scope the U. S. constitution. The Anglo-American Caribbean commission has drawn a bill for that area: the American republics are expected to adopt another at their next meeting. These are efforts to define basic human rights, a far different thing from actually establishing them. The UN commission wlil have all these and many other proposals be fore it when it meets again in December. Rancher Holds Stray Cattle Dr. William Bundrant is hold ing the following strayed cattle at his ranch on the Merrill highway: One whiteface, dark red year ling bull, branded with a half circle-circle on the right hip, no ear mark. One whiteface yearling heifer, branded with '10' on left ribs, crop off right ear and underbit left ear. The owners may have the cat tle by contacting Dr. Bundrant at the ranch or by phoning 3825. Also at the Southern Pacific stock yards at Texum there is a stray four-months-old Guern sey heifer, no brand, which was brought in with a bunch of Mac Barbour's Brahmas after the rodeo last month. The owner may have same by paying for feeding. The sheriffs office has been unable to locate a recording of either of the brands on the cat tle at Bundrant's ranch.

Aug. 2 P) The 21 members of the vanished nazi hierarchy be ing tried here for war crimes have become the biggest tourist attraction in Germany. They don't like it. At each recess spectators crowd to the railing to get as close a look as possible at the men whose empire has come down to a prison cell and a seat in a courtroom box. "Look at Hess!" someone ex claims audibly. "Look at Julius Streicher he's eating a piece of bread!" Particularly maddening to the defendants are spectators who stare at them through bin oculars. This so enrages Alfred Jodl, the lean red-nosed former chief of staff of the German general staff, that on occasion he screws his hands together around his eyes as if he held a pair of field glasses himself and glares back at the offending cm-looker, jabbering angrily in German the while. This performance always brings an audience laugh, and angers Jodl even more. Look Harmltss Now It is strange to see these men standing trial for a world's mis ery. They look so harmless surrounded by wooden barriers and armed guards. And to read their defense briefs if he had n't read the evidence massed against them a newcomer from another planet might think them a most virtuous, imposed upon and betrayed group of men. Their long confinement has broken the cockiness of most defendants. They all have had a chance to tell their stories, and now as the purple of black robed German defense attor neys present their final sum maries, the defendants sit dully or stare moodily around the room. The eight-month tide of words has wearied the entire court, and the proceedings drone to the climax in a gath ering inertia. Everybody seems word-bombed. Only during re cess periods do the defendants snap out of their half-coma and exchange notes and brief jests. Hermann Goering remains the most virile, commanding presence, and the one who has won most courtroom respect because of his lack of hypo crisy and his continued allegi ance to his dead fuehrer. Americans like loyalty in a man even if he is serving the devil, Goering DtceptW Goering has an almost ben evolent profile, but when he turns his head you get a sudden shock as if you had dived into a woodland pool and came up to find yourself staring into the leering face of a satyr. The eyes have a thyroid intensity, the mouth holds a voluptuous cruelty, and the skin of his cheeks hangs loosely over the lost fat. Physicians have weaned him Coming ARMORY Wed., Aug. 7 Direct from Horace Hsidt's Trianon Ballroom in Los Angtltil from the narcotics habit. He sits hunched forward with an American army blanket wrap ped around his body. Sciatica troubles him. "He has lost Interest." one courtroom attendant told me, "since his attempt fiiilrd to create a legend around Hitler. He feels the other defendants let him down." Now when a German attor ney speaks disparagingly of Hitler as a man who befuddled his followers nnd led his na tion to ruin, Goering cups his face in his hands and slowly shakes his head. The shadow of Adolf Hitler hangs heavily over the entire trial. You can't escupc feeling that if the chief architect of World War II were in the defense box. the world would more surely learn from his vainglorious life the lesson it must learn to keep the pattern of peace. Man Arrested After Collision Jackson Donald Coleman, 32. of 159 Hillside, posted $50 bail with city police for reckless driving after his car was in volved in an accident with a vehicle driven by . Roscoe M. Prior of Tulelake on Oregon at Bichn. Investigating police reported that Prior was driving east on Oregon about midnight last night and Coleman was ap proaching from the opposite di rection, and the two cars col lided. Prior said that Coleman was driving between 35 and 40 miles an hour and that he had to swerve onto the shoulder of the street to avoid being hit head-on. The right front part of Cole man's 1939 Mercury convertible was extensively damaged and the car was towed in by Bal siger's wrecker. The right fend er and door of Prior's 1941 Ply mouth sedan was damaged, 12 Bodies Recovered From Plane Wreckage SAN DIEGO, Aug. 2 (IP) The eleventh naval district an nounced today that 12 bodies one more than previously re ported had been found in the wreckage of a four-efgincd navy Privateer bomber which crash ed on Kearny mesa, cast of here, yesterday.
