Meters will be installed here for a six months period, and a vote will then be held to de termine whether they will be taken out or remain as a permanent installation. Representatives of the mer chants organization, who at first indicated their intention of forcing a vote by petition at the November election be fore trial of the meters have changed their policy. They have agreed to go along with the idea of having a popular decision after the public has had actual experience with the meters on Klamath streets. We believe that this is a logical method of settling this issue that has long been a cause of local agitation and dispute. Whatever the decision at the post-trial election, certainly no one can claim then that the public was misled or didn't know the facts about meters. If others, like us. are tired of the argument, we believe they will agree it is best to settle it with all the Vacts at hand and in a manner that will not leave an opening for reviving it in the near future. Wary WITH the way clear for a trial, city council men are still wary about rushing into a specific deal on meters. They plan a trip to several other Oregon cities that already have meters, and hope to benefit from the experience of these municipal ities. Certain Oregon cities have regretted hasty action on meters, not on the grounds that they have found a meter policy unsatisfactory, but because of dissatisfaction with the particular type of meter they acquired. Councilmen planned a trip with Mayor Osten- dorf this week, but when the mayor was unable vto get away due to airport business, the jaunt was postponed. They will go before long, how ever, and after that the parking meter program should move along fairly rapidly. The election which follows a trial of meters will probably occur early in 1947. It is pos sible other municipal matters may be brought to issue in the voting at that time, including a proposed modified form of city manager government. We will have more to report on that before long. Crack-Down Timely LOCAL courts and law enforcement officers are fully Justified in launching a crack down drive on careless automobile operation. Traffic is steadily increasing in volume on streets and nearby highways, and there are many evidences of recklessness. It is far better to start the campaign before, rather than after, a spectacular tragedy forces it upon us. ' One thing that needs to be kept constantly In mind by the public officials involved in this campaign is that equality of treatment is essential to effectiveness of the effort. There should be no discrimination; all persons coming Into court for comparable violations deserve comparable punishment. Bank, station in life, personal friendship with public officials, and all such factors should be disregarded. If that is done, the public will have confidence In the effort and it will be effective. Bend Bulletin blames the rising divorce rate in part on the housing shortage. Maybe so, but a lot of successful married lives were spent in pioneer cabins and sod houses. Local beard-wearers have to be callous to Insults. One man lumped them all as bearded hoodlums.

Dolin, I think the po lice better watch him, I'll admit those "whiskers" don't add much to the beauty of our menfolks, but they sure do show who are willing to do their small part in making this celebration a success. Unless a man nas a real rea son why he can't grow a beard, he proves himself to be a poor citizen and one to be shunned by his fellow citizens. More power to the "whis kerinos!" May they grow long er and thicker beards. As for R. D. Dolin, I hope the so-called "hoodlums" lock him in a cage WEDNESDAY EVE., AUG. 7 KFLW 1450 kc. KFJI 1240 kc.

The World Today Br GLENN BABB Associated Press Foreign Affairs Analyst OVERSHADOWED by the noisy peace con ference at Paris, another international gathering in Geneva is grappling with the vast dislocations and sufferings left by the war. In the home of the defunct League of Nations the United Nations relief and rehabilitation ad ministration is preparing for its own passing but with the hope that other agencies will embody its spirit and mission. There is grave uncertainty whether this can or will be done. Hope for continuation of the fight against the tremendous sum of hunger and homclessness arising from the war rests in various agencies of the United Nations with which UNRRA has only the slightest connection. But the time left for UNRRA grows short and the United Nations, for all the good will and high intentions of its champions, moves ponder ously and slowly, dependent on decisions of i's unit nations, in some of which government processes are none too rapid. The Geneva meeting is the fifth general council of UNRRA, and its last. The three nations which have borne most of the financial burden the United States, which has furnished nearly three-quarters of the funds, and the United Kingdom and Canada, from which has come 80 per cent of the other quarter have decided that UNRRA's work in Europe shall end December 31 and in the Orient next March 31. By that time UNRRA will have expended nearly $4,000,000,000. Continuity Necessary BOTH the Americans who have served as UNRRA's directors general Herbert H. Lehman, who headed it from its formation until his resignation last March, and Fiorello H. LaGuardia, now at Geneva have decided that great suffering will result if there is a hiatus between the end of UNRRA and the time new agencies are ready to function. for bridging this gap smoothly The United Nations has made a beginning toward assuming UNRRA's respon sibilities but little more. Most important of the new agencies is the international refugee organization (IRO), whose charter was approved recently by the United Nations economic and social council but still awaits ratification by the U.N. general assembly, meeting in New York September 23, and rati fication by member nations. Former Ambassa dor John G. Winant, American representative on the economic and social council, has ex pressed hope that American ratification could be obtained before the end of the year, but with congress adjourned sine die probably until January it is difficult to see how this is possible. a IRO is designed chieflv to care i IVI for and resettle refugees who are to find!'0 fast-moving hard-striking new homes overseas and not to feed and shelter ''e ?'c f?"i M . . the American zone when the rest the majority of the 8o0,000 displaced persons I of the occupation army gocs uuw uiium toucu wic in cuiujv. iiicic is mu program for ministering to the whom UNRRA has helped keep alive. Also in the formative stage is world health organization (WHO), but this agency has neither the funds nor the operating plans to take over any real share of UNRRA's functions next year. The economic and social council has set up a subcommission on devastated areas, intended to help rebuild and rehabilitate those regions which suffered most from the war. Its is a long range program, however, and it is In no position to bring early aid to the homeless. The tremendous task of feeding the hundreds of millions who still will be hungry in 1947 and 1948 must, according to present prospects, go back to the governments of the suffering populations or to the armies of occupation whose areas contain the great concentrations of displaced persons.

He is the son the mantle of Gen. George S. ("Old Blood and Guts") Patton Jr., his former boss, as the toughest, roughest-talking com mander in the army. Harmon has been given the hardest job in the reich he helped conquer tne task ot building 30,000 constabulary troopers m- ; home. In ' s e v e n-a-day inspection speeches he tells his men: "You're going to be soldiers ! the German people have to re spect. I never had a second-rate , outfit, and I'm not going to start now. You're going to be the best outfit in the American army if you aren't already." j Knows His Man Harmon likes personal con tact with his men. He speaks their language. Knows their tricks. He is stern with them but they like the way he has of cracking down and removing in- efficient or pretentious officers. ' Ernie is short, heavy-set and bald with close-set eyes like an angry porcupine and a manner of speech that resembles W. C Fields'. His voice sounds as if it had to fight its way out through gravel bed in his larynx, and that gave him his nickname. Nobody ever has been known, however, to use it to his face. I At 52 Harmon, a pentathlon ' athlete in the 1924 Olympics at Paris, still walks the boots off his young sum ofneers. He is an intense worker, an expert or- ganizcr and his chief quality as a leader is his ability to transmit I his own competitive spirit anu ; morale to his men. i During the convivial party at which he was standing beside a gjant Russian commander, he squinted up at his ally and told nm interpreter: "Tell that big guy the only things I like to do are eat, drink and light." The remark was right down the big Russian's alley. He and Harmon became fast friends. Likes Fighting Best . .J"" "ws.
