SIDE GLANCES EPLEY Today's Roundup Br MALCOLM EPLEY Today's Roundup Br MALCOLM EPLEY THE reclamation bureau now estimates that 15,000 or more veterans will apply for tumeituds in connection with the forthcoming pening of 88 units of Tulelake land. Such a number wm xar ex teed the applications on pre vious openings, and is attrib jted to the facts that Tulelake land has demonstrated its high value and this is the first apcnlng of farm lands to vet rrans of the second World War. What is vitally important sow is that every veteran who tvanla to apply for one of ee farms becomes well in formed as to requirements and srocedures. There are many mch veterans in the Klamath country, and with in the readership circle of The Herald and News, ind it is our purpose to keep them as well informed as possible on this important matter. The reclamation service has prepared con siderable information which has been released to newspapers. Its latest release is given in full In this paper today, and we urge veterans to read it and preserve it It is a summary of in formation contained in the official announce ment which goes to all who file their names with the reclamation bureau as potential appli cants for the homesteads. With so many applying for so few farms, there will be widespread disappointment when the drawing among qualified applicants is con cluded. It is our hope that no veterans of our area, who are qualified and are desirous of participating in this drawing, fail to get in be cause of a lack of understanding or informa tion. Page Mr. Dolan THAT man Dolan could not have done more for the pre-centennial whisker stunt if he had been an authorized agent of the centennial commission or maybe he was. We realized that Saturday when we stopped in the town of Merrill, where a kangaroo court was underway with rampant enthusiasm for centennial plans in full evidence. The Merrill vigilantes were using a panel truck labeled "Dolan's Paddy Wagon" in pick ing up victims for the court. The Vigilantes had arranged special treatment for one of the town's citizens they described as "Merrills Do lan," although he boasted a beard and ap peared to be fully cooperative in the enterprise. The Dolan letter, which appeared in this pa per early in the local beard-growing campaign, assailed the project as so much foolishness and warned vigilantes that their actions might be unconstitutional. That was enough to set off a lively controversy in the letters department and otherwise provided no end of publicity for the whole scheme, as was evidenced at Merrill. Mr. Dolan deserves a vote of thanks from some body. What we would like to know Is whether Mr. Dolan is man with a terrific sense of humor or none at all. It's a cinch he's one or the other. Make It A Good Parade A FEATURE of the centennial celebration which can be of outstanding interest, and which requires general cooperation from organ izations and committees, is the parade set for the morning of August 22. We have witnessed pioneer parades in connection with historical pageants elsewhere, notably at Eugene, and we know that this parade can add tremendously to the color, atmosphere and interest of the forth coming celebration. What is needed is ideas based on pioneer themes. The rich historical lore of the Klamath country should provide plenty of them. Many good parade entries are now being prepared, News Behind The News By PAUL MALLON WASHINGTON, Aug. 10 Mr. Byrnes won his fight in the rules committee for pre serving the appearance of peace and democracy by putting his foot down firmly. All the authentic inside information which has come to me, suggests he could not have done otherwise. The fight of the small nations for preserving the simplest rudiments of de mocracy majority rule was genuine and per sistent. It could not be blocked, and at the opening of the conference it was thought weeks might be spent arguing over the proposals, whereas only a few days were required on the first point. After all if you are going to have peace, it must be by reason and understanding in accordance with the principles to which we have always subscribed, as well as the simple rudiments of fair play. A peace upon a two thirds basis is getting mighty near the Russian basis of rule by an enforced unanimity. Church Groups Take Stand BUT deeper than this behind the move of conference rules committee, according to my information, was the cooperation suggested by the church groups in earnestly backing up their demands for peace. They practised what they preached. At the British meeting of the church council, a desire was expressed at the very outset for cooperation, for a Christian democratic understanding with the Vatican. Finally a commission of the churches was ap-; pointed to watch closely the developments of ; world affairs. I As a Protestant clergyman has expressed it to me, the churches themselves had reached ! the conclusion that firm assertion of their be liefs was necessar. They also put their feet down, and I suspect they may have added firm ness to the position of Mr. Byrnes. In short, the matter was judged not to be a question of religion as much as of the very peace itself. The weakness of the past had stemmed from a lack of cooperation in. the truly Christian spirit not haggling over the details of old matters but of working together in unity for the peace which is the basic principle of all. This view is held also by some of the highest officials of this government. One puts it this way: America likes the principle of fair play. It has sympathy for the underdog. Courses based on such ideas have always been popular here. The same viewpoint has been held throughout the smaller nations, as they are the underdogs and want fair play in this situation. Byrnes Wins Point IN official circles, however, it is well recog nized that Mr. Byrnes won only an encourag ing first step in the path toward a peace which surely must come from pursuance of the path upon which he reported progress in his speech departing from these shores. It must be fought for, and maintained as further steps are made, and we must push forward to it, officials here are now saying, with added zeal from this encouragement. ? Now certainly in an atomic era in which the scientists are mourning our future, there has arisen the necessity for Insistence upon our position, or its basic features. Thus the point involved in these treaties has assumed more im portance than merely the future peace of the five nations involved, the small Balkan coun tries, Finland and Italy. The whole future world is involved. The strenuous conflict between Messrs. Molotov and Byrnes was not unexpected. Mr. Byrnes accurately presented his demands, and while Mr. Molotov opened Russia to publication of the Byrnes speech and gave considerable ground, few authorities here believe the mil lcnium has arrived and full cooperation is pos sible any more than Utopia. They say instead that we are confronted with unusual necessities for peace which have come out of this war, and some of my informants suggest cooperation on our side at least will always be continued. Certainly the first rays of light toward an era of good feeling among men of peace became visible in the first move. "Imagine you warning Dorothy not lit nitirry until she's Mire he's llic riKhl man!

It The modern world has clashed with the ancient again, this time down at the Trinity Alps prim itive area. The Trinity Alps resort has just ordered a five place airplane to fly guests over the area, one of the wildest left in America, so they can see, in comparative luxury, the deep canyons, grassy meadows and spectacular rock walls that the average guy has spent a week back packing into. Next year, so the resort owners say, they will have a helicopter, so they can go down in that area, taking hunters, fishermen and sports men in. What a change from sweating it out with a pack on your back or swearing it out with a string of mules. It's a great world we live in. We can't get box cars in here to ship lumber out because the rail roads can't build cars because they have no lumber. And day after day it goes on like that. There is a critical shortage of everything except parking met ers, of course and it seems to all hinge around transportation. I, for one, will be glad to see the old days back again, when a dollar was a dollar and you bought things off a counter in stead of sneaking in the back door and paying under the counter.

The life story of this stumble footed rodent begins and erds in the art haunted Eberhard Fuber castle, a jumble of marble, rot.oco plaster and brick built Horn the sale of lead pencils. From the exancd atmosphere of his birthplace little Maxic ac quired a fatal delusion of gran- oeur.

Bolder than his timorous brethren. Maxie took the whole castle for his range and private scrounging preserve. In his youth Maxie became hump-backed from a head-on col lision with a swinging door.

Since the room was crowded enough with two news papermen, I tossed a book in their direction to discourage further tenancy. The poor rela tion ran for the radiator shelter but Maxie walked dignity in every waddle. He had a bad habit of napping in our beds. It was very discon certing to find a mouse asleep on your pillow, even though he was a personal acquaintance. To break him of this, we put ip front of the radiator, reading from left to right, a cracker, fotii- salted peanuts, a small puddle of beer -and a sugar coated aspirin tablet.
