K KT-rJiat RS B S.ii SS Today's Roundup By MALCOLM EPLEY THE inevitable has caught up with The Herald and NewB. and beginning on Monday, this newsnaoor will shrink to a tabloid a small- gized edition that must con tinue until January t at wt gel in line with our paper allocation. "Junior" will carry, no ad vertising, leaving all possible space for continuance of ade quate news coverage and the regular news features. On January 6, the paper will return to its regular format, but all prospects point to the necessity of continuing with limited advertising and spar ing use of paper for several weeks into 1847. This extreme measure, directly and exclusive ly the result of the paper shortage, isn't going to be easy to take, but we're going to make the best of it. We hope we can make Junior sparkle, little as he may be. We've got a great big plant here to be getting out a production the size of Junior; it'll give us a chance to do some things that we can't ordinarily attempt on the regular size paper. We've been giving Junior the best pre-natal care. We aren't sure as to exactly what he'll be . like when he's born Monday, but we're hoping for the best. Why NOW, as to that paper shortage that is mak ing us all the trouble: When the supply of paper began to run down early in the war, along with the supply of just about everything else civilians used, it was decided to allocate on the basis of 1941 use. In 1942, the supply allocated to The Herald and News was cut approximately 10 per cent from the 1941 base. In 1943, it took another 10 per cent cut When the war ended In 194S, it was found necessary to continue allocations of newsprint to the newspapers. This was noi only because it took time to get production for civilian use back to normal, but there had developed a tre mendous demand for all the paper the mills could produce when they did get back to nor - mal. There was increased demand from sources other than newspapers, such as for the comic books, handbook type of novels and story books, and so on. There was simply not enough paper to go around. Meanwhile, between 1941, the base year, and 1944, the circulation of The Herald and News had bounced up 50 per cent. Our circulation gained from a little more than 8000 in 1941 to mote than 12,000 in 1944, when we virtually froze it, That circulation Increase meant a heavily in creased daily use of paper, and thus the short age problem became especially acute in our case. In other words, we have to get along ; now, with a circulation of more than 12,000, on :less than the amount of paper we had back in 1941 with a circulation of slightly over 8000. ' This year, we've been forced to draw heavily on our 1946 allocation, and especially indecent months and weeks, we've used more than our daily allowance. We've had to borrow against 1947 to finish out 1946. That's why, here at the fag end of the year, , we find ourselves in the situation that calls for an exceptional measure and Junior, pint sized but (we hope) full of vim and vigor, is going to be that ''exceptional measure." Amateur Radio Meeting Slated ' The Klamath Amateur Radio society will hold its regular business meeting and "gab fest" at 7:30 tonight, Friday, in the chamber of commerce office at 323 Main. AH licensed radio amateurs and persons interested in build ing and operating radio equip ment as a hobby are invited to attend. A special invitation is extended to interested high school students. Temperature Up At Crater Lake Radio reports from Crater Lake national park this morning indicated good skiing and winter sports weather. Fifty-six inches of ice-crusted snow lay on the ground. Skies were cloudy with rain or snow expected later in the day. Yesterday's maximum temper ature was reported at 55 degrees.

Main MBS Rlie and Shine MBS Headline Newa Beat Bnye Fevorllro of Teeterdar Morales Matinee Sparta Lineup RFLW Feature WASHINGTON, Dec. 20 A minor boiling of politics Inside both headquarters here has recently been noted in print or at least some of the steam from the Inside has. Miss Marion Martin first resigned quietly as women's director (assistant chairman) of the republicans and then came out with a state ment a few days later saying the resignation was forced "because of enemies (she had) within the party." No one said much otherwise about the matter except the self-professed liberals, whose writers in New York publicly claimed to see a deep-eyed plot of Senator Tart to cap ure the republican women's leadership, end thus the whole national committee. THE fact ot the matter is Miss Martin, who is from Maine, had served aggressively un der five national chairmen. She was appointed away back under former Chairman Hamilton, In that length of time any republican touring speaker (which Miss Martin was) or leader would have acquired more than enough enemies to effect such a resignation, but in Miss Martin's case, it was not entirely a personal matter or a case of individual opposition. Two well-known groups within the party opposed her and caused the resignation women's groups being rather deeply involved. The deep-dyed suspicion of a Taft plot arose naturally from the record of Mrs. Katherine Kennedy Brown, as national committeewoman from Ohio, which put her in line for succes sion. Authoritative party people say, however, there was no thought of Mrs. Brown's appoint ment in the matter. It could not be made be cause it would give the committee too much of Ohio. Democratic Side IN the democratic side, the widely published certainty of the selection of Robert E. Kerr as national chairman is inwardly being ques tioned in certain high authoritative quarters of the party. The story going around is that Kerr opposed the party nomination ot Al Smith and people who have checked into the records say he made a speech, or a statement, or both, as a young attorney, opposing Smith and sup porting the republican nominee, Herbert Hoover. In view of the attitude of the demo cratic national committee about Hoover, the selection of Kerr might be embarrassing if not impossible. Some talk is going around suggesting Jim Farley, the Roosevelt manager for the first twe terms, would take the Job. Farley, however, has- a good job which pays good money. His friends, furthermore, make it clear he is not excited about the prospect ot going back to an old political post. His friends do not admit this but it may be possible Farley has accurately estimated the democratic chances two years hence on the basis of the standing today. Un questionably the change would require a sacri fice of his personal interests a sacrifice he may judge not to be worth while. But Farley is loyal to Truman, and his asso ciates say he has told the president he will place himself in readiness for use by the party at any time. MR.' TRUMAN, Incidentally, has received a resurgence of popular support from many of those in the vast political army of Washing ton lately and there are indications he is gain ing an increase in popularity around the coun try. People increasingly say here is a man try ing to do a job under circumstances which have been exceptionally adverse. His strong stand in the coal strike unquestionably brought him un expected popular support. But the steam in either party is not likely to blow any lids. There will be no further changes in the republican party setup before the coming congress. The democratic situation is largely technical due to the desire of Bob Hannegan to retire from the chairmanship, but apparently not the postmaster generalship, a change which would still leave him at or near the top. Former Tulelake Resident' Dies TULELAKE, Dec. 20 Word has been received here of the death of a well-known former resident, Mrs. Bessie E. Penhall, at Anaheim, Calif., following an illness of about a year. - Mrs. Penhall died at an Ana heim hospital on December 10, Funeral services and interment were on December 13 at Fuller ton, Calif.

Analyst The UN atomic commission Is resuming Us smirch today for a set of controls which will outlaw the A-bomb but not Interfere with the Big Five voto power in the security council; The Immediate Issue Is the de sire of the United States lo pro vide for swift nnd sure sanctions against any country which might violate Urn rules. The nations now envisage a tivalitm tinrioi whiph wnli'hmeil nil over the world would bo on constant guard, reporting any in fraction lo the council. Every one has agreed, toiilullvely at least,, that the Veto shall not apply to the activities of these watchmen; that they shall be free to rtrar and go, to investi gate as they will and report ns they see fit. Up to that point the United Stntes has attained its objectives. Report But what of the report after it reaches the council? There, under the present system, nothing can be done un less the Big Five are unanimous. AlthotiKh differing as to how the veto should be used, the pow ers are still agreed on the prin ciple. The Russluns apparently feel that by the time someone Is de tected breaking the treaty the decision tor war will have been made, veto or no veto, and there is, no use scrapping the veto system in an otlempt to cover such an eventuality. Tho American view Is that there must be no veto on atomic controls, regardless. It Is easy lo think of situations In which we might be right and Russia wrong. Preparation One of the Big Five or one of their satellite countries might be caught preparing for atomic war fare long before it would be ready to begin. Just as Germany was known to be rearming for years before 1S39. If the con trol commission reported to the council and recommended sanc tions and the recommendation was vetoed, UN action would be prevented and the violation would continue until the vio lator was ready for war or un til other powers became so fear ful that they acted indivlduully In the only possible way war. But without the veto a major ity of the council could invoke unctions, cut off materials be ing turned to war purposes, mobilize world opinion, and gen erally attempt to prove to the projected warmakcr that he was planning suicide. If that failed to bring him buck into line, and still assuming the atomic viola tion were detected before he was ready for all-out war, the United Nations police force could be sent in to stop the violation by force.
