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.

he just frowned in annoyance,
once he was squiring around a
poor relation from the buse
