Today's Roundup By MALCOLM EPLEY EVERY once in a while the persons who handle the public business get the strange notion that the public business isn't any of the public's business. We've had that experience here on numerous occasions, and we note from the Bend Bulletin that something of the kind has been going on at Bend in connection with the work of the city commission. The Bend commission is re quired by the city charter there to meet twice a month. The Bulletin has had a reporter at those meetings, and has re- pont-a ute pi ui-trcumga w his EPLEY interested public. But this week, the Bulletin suddenly found out it had been missing out on things. It found the commission had been holding private, un announced meetings, and had not been giving out any information afterwards about what went on behind closed doors. There were 24 regular meetings of the Bend commission in the last year, and 24 of the secret meetings. "Obviously," concludes the Bulletin, "busi ness has been going on that the administration did not care about getting to the public." Out of the fuss raised at Bend came a deci sion by the city officials to notify the Bulletin reporter of all meetings, and presumably they will be duly reported hereafter. a it bW Up SOME years ago, the Klamath Falls city coun cil, at a publicly unscheduled meeting, adopted a parking meter program. When it came out that the deal was cooked up in a star chamber session, the resultant ruckus blew the parking meter program sky-high. In the recent parking meter dealings, councilmen took a leaf from the notebook of experience and worked in the open. But there is still a tendency on the part of the council to hold off-the-record gatherings at times other than the regular council sessions are conducted. Councilmen-have indicated they do not wish the press to report these meetings, or gatherings, or whatever they may be called. Any action agreed upon at the special or in formal meetings presumably will be officially approved at regular meetings, and will become a part of the minutes, thus being made available for report to the public. That, it may be argued, puts the special ses sions in a better light than would otherwise be the case. But even so, we urge the inadvisabili ty of doing very much of that sort of thing. Often the discussion that precedes action pro vides important information the public has a right to know. For example, discussion by the councilmen shows why they take certain action, or why they refrain from certain action. It carries the explanatory material that is essential to mak ing the public well-informed on what is done about its business. r If the discussion is confined to off-the-record gatherings, the public is denied that informa tion. . First issues of the Congressional Record have arrived on our desk, by courtesy of Congress man Stockman. We pored over the verbatim report of the Bilbo argument last night, and today we struggle with a third-degree headache. Cordon, Cornett and Snell have now all de nied a gossip story of a political deal that would make Cornett governor, Snell U. S. senator, and Cordon jobless. ' A woman reader inquires: "Why don't they light those ornamental lights at the entrances of the Klamath Falls post office? Those steps are dark and dangerous any night, and dark, dangerous and slippery on cold nights." Well, why don't they? A representative of the Soroptimist club re ports to us that Soroptimists tried for a long time to establish a waiting room and rest room facilities in town, along the lines discussed in this space yesterday. The club couldn't find suitable quarters for the facility. The project looks like an exceptional opportunity for a re tail business house, if nothing can be done co operatively or through semi-public agencies. Parolee Gets 2nd Jail Term Arthur J.

IS Backstage here the publicity catfighting unions (CIO, Lewis, AF of L) are teaming up toward unit ed effort to stop congress from enacting any except token union reform legislation. A man dropped into a congressman's office the other day on what he said was a tour of all the fresh, earnest new legislators, mostly republican. He said he had been chosen by CIO headquarters and John Lewis jointly, meaning also the Lewis wing of AF of L at least, to do a joint job of "publicity" on the reform proposals. In the other days lobbying was confined largely to lawyers and their associates. Nowa days a heavy bulk of the work has switched to the field of "publicity." The various parties wishing to influence legislators have come to realize primary importance of news, or as Mr. Lewis himself might describe it (and himself) with his predilection for Shakespeare: "With his mouth full of news, which he will put upon us, as pigeons feed their young" the "young" being the public and the yearling legislators. Strange Alliance THIS evidence of strange banding together is surprising in view of the printed stories that Bill Green declined to accept the CIO in vitation for a joint public conference on legis lation and Lewis did not appear at that meet ing either. But it is not illegal and displays primarily the growing scope of a coalescing union movement to descend upon congress not only with both feet, but all feet. The unions may say the manufacturers do about the same thing, yet actually in this instance, the manu facturers in their convention decided to leave the issue of how to legislate up to congress. On the contrary, the unions are developing public news designed indirectly to influence congress such front page bits as these: The constant warnings that any union reform legislation must not be "punitive" a warning which is already causing many yearling legis lators to lean over backward, because nearly none wish to be punitive. The public CIO indorsement of the Truman plan to submit "evils of the labor situation" to a congressional Investigation, which the presi dent thought could be concluded by March, although no one else seems to think so, and certainly not those parties who would be glad to shove the important parts of proposed legis lation off into an inquiry which might be made endless by developing a constant need for con tinuance. The needs of the unions to assume that any move for reform is just a plot of the corpora tions or, as Phil Murray has specifically put it advocated "by powerful monopoly interests (which) hope to restrict the effectiveness 01 labor by legislation to curb, harass yes, even strategy the unions have notice ably been initiating, and you mignt De greaxiy effect it is naving OSTENSIBLY the strategy seems designed to promote a split in the republican party. Already various groups of majority legislators are being formed backstage, and while none of these has oublicly joined or assigned any promt' one or two CIO sympathetic re publican senators, some groups now are favor able to slow action, to seeking union political reforms (as reported in this and similar steps. Already the work has caused six or seven democratic senators to form a group openly supporting a further investigation of a subject upon which congress has for two years speni more time than any other. However, this movement has not cut all one way. Evidence is discernible tnat certain siaie CIO organizations are developing antagonism to the New York (if not the Washington) lead union, and may come out. against its ties to the commies through tne American labor party and its dwindling political action committees. All in all, then, any objective report must disclose a terrific inner lobbying struggle being now to which little or no public attention has been drawn. In essence, so far, it seems to be about what any experienced legis lator would expect at this stage of the game is running wide open, prelim- ir.ary to an attempt of the republicans to agree Any attempt to measure its ef forthcoming legislation would De In general, the incoming republicans seem to be a clean-looking lot of rather earnest politico, seriously bent on listening to but not being in fluenced by the lobbies of either business or unions, and ultimately working out for them selves certain reforms strictly in the public interest. rently on parole from a 20-year stretch in Washington for taking indecent liberties with a minor girl.

Bing has as his special guest for to night's program, Al - Jolson, who. by tlie way, ie portrayed on the screen by Larry Parks in the "Jolson Story." Al and Bin get together in two numbers and Bing does an Al Jolson take off while Al does a typical Bing Crosby boo-boo-boo song. It's at 9 p. m. over Kt LW. Following Bing, of course, comes Henry (Here's) Morgan, D. L., P. B. S., B. M. and H. P. I. "Typical Morgan Fans" (sung to the tune of for "He's a Jolly Good Fellow") are asked to study the Morgan Poll which shows that more thinking people are thinking. Morgan ex plains that this statistical phe nomenon has not been studied previously. According to Mor gan's theory, this proves, that people want to think, and will think, if they know what to think about. "It's up to us." he says. Morgan cites the 44-hour week a6 a great detriment in thinking, people now have more time for thought, he says. Mor gan also claims that thinking can become extremely benefi cial, if done in moderation. In any case, , why raise a big "think" about it.

AP Foreign Alfalrs Analyst Rome imviil veterans re su Rntliil llmt 1 1 ti 1 lit it suitors scuttle Ihelr ships rather Ihnn surrender them to the World Wur II vic tors under the proposed pence treaty. It Is threat of which allied authorities In Italy have been aware for ioiiid time, and has resulted in strict secrecy regard lull allied atircementa as to who will get the warships as repara tions. Althouith Frank O'Brien, As sociated 1'ress correspondent in Rome, says authorities will not lulk openly on the subject. It Is understood that Kruncf, Soviet Russia and probubly Yugoslavia, Greece unci Albania will be on the receiving end. Comet r. Ernesto Clurlntl of the Italian navy said in New York after the foreign ministers con ference that Italy stood to lose 200,000 of her 330.000 tons of warships, and would bo reduced to two old battleships, four cruis ers, four destroyers, 10 turpvdo boats and 20 corvettes, with' no submarines. This means that three battleships, five cruisers, seven destroyers and 37 sub marines are to go to other coun tries, together with a large num ber of auxiliary vessels. . Allies Nervous O'Brien reports, however, that allied authorities, although they hold the units under surveillance, are frankly nervous over their ability to deliver. The crews, not the Italian government, are sus pected, although the government had asked for permission to scrap vessels which It would not be permitted to keep rather than have them turned over to other Mediterranean powers. The gov ernment also has cited Italian naval cooperation with the allies in the last months of the war, and tried to maintain that the fleet had not actually surrend ered, but changed over to the allied side under a "gentlemen's agreement. All of this seems to have been merely a grasping at straws, how ever, without any real hope of changing the allied decision. The government probably will be held strictly responsible If It falls to control any fire-eaters in the fleet. Italy's preferred position among the former axis powers had been duo all along to her willingness to carry out allied Instructions. She is years ahead of Germany and Japan In re habilitation, and has been the recipient of much kind treatment such as $100,000,000 export credits. The Rome pronouncement by the naval veterans, taking the form of an "order of the day," serves to put the government on notice, however, and the allies will know where to place the blame for any overt act which might now occur. Germany was forced to pay heavily in additional tonnage for the vessels her crewmen scuttled In Scapa Flow after World War 1. Italy, heavily dependent on sup port from those she fought against during the war, has everything to lose by bucking too hard against allied decisions which have been, from several standpoints, very lenient.

Reaction to the governor's mewugo was varlud, but critics refused to go on record.

The criticism is centered on his request that corporate excise tax surplusrs be uied fur general fund requests.
