He promised that any garden planting done at this time will be cruelly rebuked by frost later on. Further, he raid, nature is going to get itself into a jackpot, and a lot of premature budding and so on is going to take a beating. .

We have observed that people of the Klamath country are inclined to look at our weather through glasses provided by the conditions of the moment. Right now, everybody is telling us that they've never seeu such a fine spring as we are having. Come a few chilly blasts, and they will cuss the weather for-never giving us a break in the spring. .for getting -those balmy days of February and March. Sure, It's grand spring weather.

News Behind The News Br PAUL MALLON WASHINGTON, March IB Mr. Truman did not seek any specific form of his proposed $400,000,000 aid to Greece and Turkey,, so no one has been able to get a direct line on the idea or the possible results. Not even the congressmen in charge of the legislation profess to be clear on the subject, and the other legis lators have been sloshing around in a some what bewildered state. Certainly their ideas have not coalesced. The truth is no one wants to make the loan, grant, trust fund, gift or whatever it finally is to be. This includes republicans and demo crats, and all phases of the proposed venture including the diplomatic aspect of British policy. Home Owners Ask Paving i The request of property own ers -along Lancaster street for paving improvements through that area is being studied by the city engineers' office. A previous study of the request revealed that the cost of the improvements was far greater than the assessed value of the property involved, according to E. A. Thomas, city engineer. The property owners had re quested the improvement espe cially . as a safety measure, claiming that it was almost im possible to get close to their homes in the winter time due to the condition of the streets. runs j Editor If a fire were to break out in one of the homes, it was point ed out at city council meeting Monday night, the fire depart ment would have a difficult time reaching the burning building in time to do any good. Thomas said that he and a committee from the property owners will meet soon to try and find some manner in which the costs, may be pared closer to the assessed valuation.

Certainly it seems to wish to abandon the empire, but some officials say Britain only wishes to abandon its com mitments in Greece, Palestine, Egypt, India and Burma while clinging to France and Germany. Whatever she is doing, no one knows, and there are grave doubts that either Mr. Attlee or Mr. Bcvin does. But whatever it turns out to be is surely a weakening of the British end of the fight for democracy and Individual freedom around the world. Mistakes Covered HER foreign policy seems as confused as her domestic policy, and as little aimed f) attain the results her government desires as her policy of reducing the work-week in the coal mines at a time when she needs coal pro-1 duction desperately. Private British reports! suggest there is no chance of the confused British government arriving at any political clarity through a coalition administration or: any joint nonpartisan patriotic effort, but that, the socialist laborite government will last its five years in office. Even some sympathetic I British government sources say their politicians j can thank God for the snowstorms and blizzards which covered up the mistakes of the Attlce regime from the eyes of the people. In any event, congressmen actually do not seem to know much more about it than you do. Whence has come their reluctance and inquisitiveness. (Note I am told the British sounded out this government officially on another loan for it self, and was told promptly public opinion in this country would not support another loan at this time.) Uncertainty originates in those Britisli facts, and spreads from there on. Officially there was no surprise at the British request that we take over her Greek commitments, at least in one sense. Last fall the Attlee government announced it would retire from Greece. The only thing new, apparently, is that she will withdraw economic aid. She intended to take her troops out anyway. In thus connection few official authorities j here think the administration's new dealers in Greece inspired, or had much to do with the t development of the Truman policy. Paul Por-I ter (remember OPA?) has been the special eco nomic envoy of the administration to Greece, but he was not even called back for consultation until long after Mr. Truman had decided to act. Aiding Guerillas ALSO his standing at the state department is reputedly not the highest. Another new deal editor, Mark Ethridge, is in Greece for UNO studying guerilla warfare prospects, "'Mch are at the root of the situation because the Russians are supposed to have armed the guerillas for a spring campaign to overthrow the government. Indeed.- unverifiable rumor has reached official quarters that some of our own lend-lease material is now arming the .guerillas. We shipped this stuff to Yugoslavia, and Tito and Yugoslavia sent the material on to the guerillas. At any rate, tflis nation has had a starstudded new deal cast at the top in Greece. But inside information heri suggests its influence is far from important. One quasi official report suggests, indeed, that Porter wrote a letter to a senator demanding that we change our Greek policy to that of the Russians, favoring overthrow of King George. If he did this, his popularity would be ended on the inside here. All this adds to congressional lack of clarity except perhaps on one phase. Everyone recognizes Greece needs help and wants to give - It. Yet in this unanimous desire, the con gressmen are on a somewhat nebulous state. Reporters covering the hearings in both houses, heard no figures produced as to how much relief is already being given Greece by us. A Greek relief society has been acti-ely soliciting funds. The churches are conducting a cam paign throughout this country for relief, sup planting their campaign of last year. These voluntary efforts to aid the Greeks has met wholehearted response throughout the nation and must have done much good. Yet no one mentioned this in the hearings. The reports, covering same, say Greece was occupied by both Italians and nazis during the war and her industries were destroyed, so she needs eco nomic help. All apparently took this situation for granted and no detailed understanding of the actual current situation was developed any where.

New Zoo land, the Union of South Africa and England herself had ceased to be a world power. We must recognize, though, that its strength lies in the fact that it is the heart of that commonwealth.
