The issue is currently before a suD-commmee 01 me legisla ture'! tolnt wav and means committee. By good luck, we f , discovered this committee in session while . at Salem nils week, and sat in for a while on Its deliberations. Members of the committee are Senators Howard Belton of Canby and Carl Engdahl of Tj I Pendleton, and Representative I Morse of Prineville. We quick- I I ly realiied that these men I I were determined to give the ea"wwwBBsi . . . i budgetary requirements ui uiw . mi rv proposed Barracks school a searching scrutiny, r r .. ...,! . ........ lha arm and It was our leenng um uv ...v,, through with the Issue, its soundness, education ally arid financially, will be well determined. The thoroughgoing way in which the com mlttee went into the program, as presented by O. I. Paulson, state director of vocational edu cation, won our approval and that of Tom Watters, Klamath business man who was there with us. As friends of the project, we ap proved, because we felt that it is Just as im portant to Klamath people as to the state as a whole that the project needs to be assured as far as possible of success if it is undertaken. It would do us no good here to have it turn out to be a white elephant. The legislative appropriation asked is $620, 000, which is substantial sum -and properly requires careful study from the ways and means committee before recommendation. In line with our remarks here yesterday about the pressure upon the legislature for expendi tures, we feel that the merit of this program needs to be well established as a justification for the outlay. : s. ' ' Makes Good Case MR. PAULSON, the head of the vocational education department, made a good case for the enterprise. He said that on a basis of definite applications and a survey, he esti mates the school would start with an enrollment of 600 the first year, and would grow steadily to an enrollment, based on average daily attend ance of 1500 at the end of a ten-year period. He explained his budgetary requests, pointing out that the large outlay needed to get the, school Under way would not be duplicated in succeeding bienniums, when reduced appropria tions would be sufficient He presented the costs projected on a ten-year plan. The school would draw substantial revenues from tuition and some funds from other sources and the financial soundness of the program depends to a considerable extent upon the main tenance of a good-sized enrollment. Mr. Paul son said it was his opinion that his enrollment estimates are conservative, and that once estab lished on an adequately-financed basis the school would draw increasingly. The educational features of the program re ceived considerable attention, Mr. Paulson ex plaining the increasing demand for training in a wide variety of vocational subjects. He pointed out, among other things, that there are numerous students at Oregon State college, who have started in engineering, who more properly ' should . be taking mechanical courses of the type-to be offered at Klamath Falls. , - A Fair Chance QEP. MORSE made a strong statement in be l half of the vocational education program in the state, and said it appeared to him that the Marine Barracks project is an answer to a serious need for such training. Dr. Charles Byrne, executive secretary of the state board of higher education, who made careful surveys qf the Marine Barracks physical plant, described some of its qualifications for the purpose pro posed. Members of the committee asked many perti nent questions, indicating that by the time they Dave completed their Job, they will know the story. Senator Belton, for example, brought out til available information about the heating problem at the Barracks. ' No decision has been made as yet. The com mittee asked both Mr. Paulson and representa tives of the higher education system for more information, and will go further into the matter early next week. J Our feeling, as we left the session of the committee, was rather optimistic. We believe the Barracks program has a good chance of coming through, but we are not certain enough to make any predictions. At any rate, we feel that whatever action the sub-committee takes, it will be based on well-considered reasons. By PAUL MALLON WASHINGTON, March 7 The Moscow 'con ference of foreign ministers opening Mon day is expected to follow the usual routine. After six weeks of torrent haranguing, the Big Four will agree on nothing and designate their deputies to determine what form nothing shall take. Announcement will be made agreement has been reached on fundamentals, but funda mentally the agreement will concern only superficialities. This is what officials think. In all other particulars, the meeting approxi mates one which might be held in an icehouse in Antarctica before the soring thaw. Mr. Byrnes, the former state secretary, had advised Russia he would take a delegation of 60 but General Marshall decided, when he came into office, he would need 100. Russia was advised of this. But Marshall's final list was chopped 16 to a total of 84, presumably on the urglngs of Russia, and our ambassador there, Bedell Smith, who constantly prodded Marshall about hotel accommodations being unavailable. While Russia is quite willing and planning to take over management of the entire world, she had not been able to produce in 30 years of revolu tion enough hotel rooms in her own capital to house a respectably sized council of ministers. The newspaper predicament was equally re vealing. The press arrangers here had been told repeatedly that after Moscow swept out its two hotels, and gave one of its colossal structures to the press, it could not house many. The arrangers cut the press list to 52, and conceded themselves to be quite slick in their slashing. .For one thing they put the New York Daily Worker No. 33 on the list, believing Moscow would never keep its own paper out, and thus we would get at least 35 correspondents in. We got only IS to 20 ac . cording to late accounts, later changed by Am bassador Smith to exactly 36. The accounts are not trustworthy because Moscow was sup posed to furnish visas for a press delegation of surely 20 and told us so, but when some of the men applied for their visas at the Russian embassy, nothing had been heard of the matter. State department authorities confessed a few days before Marshall left they did not know how many of our men would get in. One Camera Man AND mind you the press delegation did not only include reporters but one still camera man who was to take all pictures as a pool man for all the outside world, a movie man who could not get along without an accompany ing engineer although his product was similarly to be pooled, and two radio men to supplement some American radio representatives now there. The remaining reporters were not to be UNO or Washington experts, but mostly British, French and other representatives of American newspapers already on the job in Europe. Never in all history of major international conferring has there been such a conference. - The Russians would not answer inquiries. ' Promised visas would not show up as promised, needed delegates and good reporters alike were kept out. To a large extent, we went into the meeting flying blind on one motor. Now there was just a little too much of all this to allow anyone to expect great things in Moscow, especially in view of semi-official sub terranean reports to the contrary. One' such recent report, not viewed outside the few top officials, has said Russia is absolutely-, con vinced collapses will come in Britain and the United States within the next 18 months and will follow an undeviating policy against any agreements which would impede such expecta tions. While the Russians do not intend to start anything, apparently also they do not intend to let anything develop which would settle world affairs. Thus revolutionary Moscow has become the defender of the status quo, if not the obstructionist who expects to take the world over in 18 months. (If they do, I certainly hope they will give themselves more hotels.) The only trouble with her calculations is she is in worse economic shape than nearly anyone. What little truth has seeped out from her iron curtain suggests she would . collapse if the people were not enslaved to poverty by dicta torship, i Into this peculiar setting Marshall is carrying an experience in communist tactics, well ground ed in China, and in the earlier World war meetings of the Roosevelt administration. All important diplomatic reports came over his desk when he was chief of staff, but during the Byrnes regime he was absent, so he is not yet quite up to date on Russian diplomatic arguing techniques. He will not limit discussions to the Austrian and German treaties, which alone are on the agenda, but expects to talk of many current diplomatic affairs. The Russians on the other hand, prepare for these things quite thoroughly. Before British General Montgomery's visit they held a meeting ol all heads of departments of state in order to perfect a program which would make him happy while there. No doubt they have done tne same thing lor Marshall. My personal guess is we may expect more developments than 16 reporters could cover. Certainly the world is not going to allow itself to continue to drift where the iron Lorelei is waiting. Perhaps the issue may be met at Moscow.

Hockrldie Show MBS Let'l Dance Clev, Symphony Orcb, MBS One of these days this column is going to break into Joyous song over some cheerful inter national event, though it's hard to say when, for the crises con tinue like a parade of circus elephants clinging to each others tails. Among the latest hot develop ments is the blunt charge by the - American government that Russia has caused a political crisis in Hungary by "unjust ified interference" in the in ternal affairs of the Danubian country. This accusation is con tained in a sharp note which the U. S. state department has de livered not only to the Soviet government and its military gov ernor in Budapest, but to Britain and Hungary. The note cites the arrest of Bela Kovacs, a deputy in the Hungarian parliament, by Rus sian occupation forces. Until recently Kovacs was secretary general of the . smallholders party, the - moderate majority group in parliament, which the communists and other parties have tried to oust. The Russians alleged that he "actively partic ipated in the formation of sub versive and anti-Soviet terror groups.' Washington deems tne charges against Kovacs "unwarranted." The note says the effect of this interference in Hungarian af fairs "will be to support the ef forts of a small group in Hun gary to substitute a minority dictatorship for a responsible administration representative of the wilt of the Hungarian people as expressed in free and un. trammeled elections. The Unit ed States government is opposed to this attempt to nullity tne electoral mandate given by the Hungarian people." This means that the United States is determined to continue its efforts to protect weak coun tries in their right ol sen-determination. Whether it will have better luck in this case than in the Polish elections in January remains to be seen. A measure of Uncle Sam's de termination is seen in the fact that the Hungarian note is is sued as Secretary of State Mar shall is en route to Moscow to attend the Big Four foreign min isters' conference. Apparently those broad shoulders of the famous soldier are well squared and his head is back. Some observers foresee a firm American stand at the confer ence against further extension of Soviet dominance in Europe. Be that as may, it is well to note that a man have his shoulders squared in determination with out having a chip on one of them.

Coast Guard Demands Hit WASHINGTON, March 7 (T The coast guard was scolded by the house appropriations com mittee today for having "grandi ose designs and ambitions to "assume the functions of min iature navy." These words are in a report on a treasury department ap propriation bill for (he 11)48 fiscal year. The bill Included $133,000,000 fur tho t oast guard, The "grandiose designs the report said, wre reflected in an original request by the coast guard for $233,000,000 to oper ate next year. The committee added this Is "all convincing evidence that the coast guard Is apparently completely devoid of realization of the urgent need for econ omical administration of gov ernment to protect the country's fiscal destiny."

By the time Traubel, Melchlor, the Valkyries and the tympunni.it in the orchestra get through with Wagner's score, the Met will be lucky to have a roof left over It. a a a It was like a taste of old times to hear Dorothy Thompson speaking on the "Town Hall" firogram last night. Dottle has ost none of her assuredness, and is still Just as right when she's wrong as she ever was. The audience last night took some exception to one of her state ments and a slight hissing was heard, undaunted la Thompson stood on her dignity and screeched back at them. She seems to have gone back to her old 1937 scrip's about Germany, however, it seemed to us that we'd heard those lines before. Only about one woman In every 2S0 Is color blind.
