' March t. 187a Today's Roundup By MALCOLM EPLEY AT the end of a legislative session in which he gave an outstanding performance as president of the senate. Marshall E. Cornett ot ftianiam rails may uc rvgoiu ed as a possible candidate for the republican nomination for governor in 1948. Senator Cornett, who is in offWt lieutenant covcrnor until the 1948 election, has given no r hint oI ambition toward the I 'J governorship, but a size-up of V!1 J the situation certainly points 1 I in that rlirwtinn if the Klam ath senator and business man intends to remain in and ad vance in politics. He is now in his second EPLEY term as state senator. and has desire of most politically ambitious senators the presidency of the upper house. It is true there are ex-presidents In the senate at present, but for Senator Cornett, if he intends to bid for further political honors, it would reem that the time to step up is in 1948. a a a a Prestige Widens SENATOR CORNETTS statewide prestige has increased greatly in the legislative session just ended. Around Salem throughout the ses sion, there was warm praise for the Klamath senator's work as- president of the senate. As a presiding officer, he was alert, impartial and firm. He won the presidency in a rather warm pre-session contest, but his fair treatment of his opponents in that contest won general com mendation. The experience of the last session wiped out the bitterness which developed in the previous, sessions when Senator Cornett, faithful to prom ises to his constituents, attempted to bring about division of the 17th senatorial district in the cause of equity. As president of the senate, it will be Mr. Cornett's job to step in as acting governor at such times as Governor Snell is out of the state, or if for any other reason the position should be vacated. In case of the governor's resignation or death, Senator Cornett would be come governor. It is certain in that case he would ruD in 1948 to succeed himself; it is less certain, but a possibility, that he will run in 1948 to succeed Governor Snell, who by con stitutional prohibition cannot run for a third term. " a a a a Interesting THERE has been a recent revival of the rumor that U. S. Senator Guy Cordon may resign, and that in such case Governor Snell would resign to take appointment to the U. S. senator ship from Mr. Cornett, who would automatically become governor in case of Snell's resignation. Vie are certain there is now no such "deal" among the three men, but such a turn of events, is not beyond the realm of remote possibility. At any rate, it is highly interesting that a klamath county man looms on the political horizon as gubernatorial timber. In the Klam ath country are many people who have known Marshall Cornett as a genial fellow citizen, have watched him grow in political stature and de served prestige as a sound-principled public of ficial, and would welcome the opportunity of giving him home country support for the high est state office. i News Behind The News I By PAUL MALLON WASHINGTON, April 8 New dealers in the past have tried to interpret the legal guarantees of the constitution, flloeically and unnaturally, by applying them socially, for in stance. The constitution supposed that socially you would choose what you wish, and can get. The new dealers thought they could make everyone equally acceptable socially a cruel defect in their reasoning. Impossible of enforce ment, equality could not be attained any more socially than all people can be provided econo mically the same.

Thit was an this a mistake . tions will be just as confusing and vague as the recent pronouncement by their new group. (See yesterday's column). How can they define what they do not know? Until they learn, they can never be liberal. The philosophy of the American system has been corrupted to an unbelievable extent in current thinking. The framers were particularly wary about freedom of press and religion. They did not say; "Only those newspapers supporting . the administration shall have newsprint" They did not say one type of newspaper knows it all. They recognized there would be opposition even to themselves then in charge of the govern ment. They gave the opposition equal freedom. On religion, the philosophy of the constitution recognized there would be many sects, including whatever the various framers personally be lieved at the moment. They did not say one religion knows it all. They provided freedom for all, but particularly for their own opposition. This is sound philoso phy because their individual freedom really could only be perpetuated by maintaining com mon freedom. Those who create the sword shall die by the sword. The new dealers were always confused about freedom and they nearly extinguished it by strange and unnatural new interpretations in many lines against the simplest understanding of the terms. Dictatorship can capture this last stronghold of freedom by similar means, utilizing the framework of democracy to crush opposi tion and establish one-party government. of the Shipley car Easter Sun day evening when the family stopped briefly on East Main street.

Just listen and be ready with the right answer April 14th and 15th, tortion of the constitutional guarantee of com mon economic liberty to do things for yourself. The constitution did not guarantee wealth only legal right to pursue same. It did not guar antee happiness only legal opportunity to pur sue same. It did not amend all the greater laws of God or nature but acted in consonance with same. The new dealers might say these constitu tional rights were granted only to an extent and constitutional liberty was granted only to an extent "compatible with liberty, justice and economic security for their fellows." This is true enough, but not in their meaning or In the il logical deductive reasoning they draw from the plain fact. Their reasoning destroys the plain, simple original meaning. You can see this in the following considera tions: the constitutional guarantees were written under the theory that the broadest possible doc trine was necessary to provide freedom for the individual; whereas the new dealers argue that the least freedom for the individual is apt to be necessary to make it compatible with state necessities. The original constitutional theory was that the least government is the best gov ernment; the new dealers believe that the most government may be the best go"' The two theories are exactly opposit a Theory Unchanged THE constitution did not pretend to be the last word. It was amended before the ink was dull and has been amended 22 times' since, but it did have a theory which was never amended. This was the theory that the voluntary actions of free individuals brought better living results than the actions imposed on individuals by lead ers. One man could not know it all. To gain this professed and desired result, It restrained indi vidual liberty only to make it compatible with the simplest common necessities of the state. Freedom obviously does not mean a blank li cense to individuals to murder, pillage or even act against the simple common necessities of society, to walk on sidewalks and not spit in the street. We wanted order and progress and the constitution tried to allow us to gain these ends by installing a rule in which the restraints were, on those commonly acceptable to the people acceptable under their own free will. We passed such amendments as the one giving women the expansion of constitutional free dom. A step designed to expand the original theory in the common interest. Once we adopted an amendment prohibiting the use of alcoholic liquors. We thought a man could not have a right to drink if he choose. We later considered after some experience and re pealed that amendment. Certainly that amend ment was restrictive of individual liberty, mov ing in a direction opposite the suffrage amend ment. Prohibition was a contraction of individ ual liberty, one we came to consider an un natural one. The suffrage amendment was a liberalization of the original theory. a a a a Confusing Definitions SO I say until the professed liberals Jie new dealers who have formed "Americans for Democratic action" learn the meaning of the words liberalization and liberalism, their defini- contact her at home, 2035 Want land.

KFLW SIDE GLANCES "I wish you wouldn't play just before The World Today By Dtwrrr msckenzie AP Foreign Affairs Analyst This column really didn't ex pect to get such quir?k and em phatic confirmation of yester day's prediction that General De Gaulle was about ready to come out for the political leader ship "of France and that con firmation by the general himself. Our forecast was made in con nection with a speech De Gaulle made Sunday at Strasbourg this one a humdinger which was an outright appeal to the French people to organize themselves under his leadership. He also made statements tending to con firm our suggestion that he ap peared to have subscribed to President Truman's policy of aid ing countries whose indepen dence is threatened by commu nistic aggression. Political Bombshell De Gaulle's forthright bid for return to power will be a politi cal bombshell in Paris. The pres ent government is doing a pre carious 'tight-rope act between the powerful communists and other leftists, on the one hand, and the middle-of-the-road popu lar republican movement and rightists, on the other. It would take a mighty light wind to up set balance, because the strength between left and right at the polls is close to fifty-fifty. For this reason government leaders have been trying to keep De Gaulle's rising spirits in hand and muzzle him from making political speeches. Indeed, on March 30, after the general de livered a semi-political address at a memorial ceremony. Pre mier Ramadier went to the ex treme traveling a considerable distance to De Gaulle's country home to ask the latter not to talk politics in any future official commemorative speeches. Rama dier explained that if the general mixed politics with memorial rites, the -government risked "seeming to support such politi cal comments." At the same time Maurice Thorez, the communist leader, in a speech at a red meeting blasted De Gaulle as a spokesman for reaction. Exactly what De Gaulle told Ramadier hasn't been disclosed. However, the ex-premier did say the general stated that he had political ideas and intended to express them. Such a retort from De Gaulle is what one would ex pect, for he is very determined and brooks no interference. In Sunday's speech De Gaulle declared that if a new tyranny menaced the world, "the United States and France will stand to gether in opposing it." Was he talking about communistic ag gression? He didn't specify, but he is being widely interpreted as meaning that. PORTLAND, April 8 (Pi Smokers' carelessness was blamed today for the death of one person and the injury of an other.

STATIC By KELLY ROBERTS The Dick Kane trio comes to 'Stardust Meluciica" tonight. We took them in the other evening and found that they're a won derful rhythm outfit, but a lit tle short on melody. This is a little of a handicap out here where the populace wants some thing they can skip to and hum at the same time, btit all the lovers of straight rhythm in the basin are singing their praises. Speaking on Klamath musical tastes, we got a kick out of Kurl Smykil'a siory of a guy who I walked up to the stand at Karl's I last dance, where one of the I best outfits to be heard in this I country for some time was play ; ing sweet, hot and smooth, and I asked Karl if now; maybe, wouldn t he play a schotlische. Karl explained that ho was sor ry, he'd left his tuba at home. a a a Listening to the "Shadow" Sunday afternoon we noticed that at the end of the program, the Shade was careful to ex plain that he had just happened by pure luck to solve the crime before the police . . . they were almost as close as he was. This is a tendency in several of the shows recently. It used to be that the private eyes were al ways beating the cops to Uie punch, then thumbing their noses at them. The law enforce ment agencies pointed out, how ever, that this policy gave the little children of the country en tirely the wrong idea of the i;iiy a rinvai, onu iiii-jr wure growing up without any regard for law and order.

LINCOLN COMPANY PLAN SPR AGUE MVEU, Ore, (To The Editor) Note is taken of articles In IleniUI unci Nuws re garding loaning, or rather giving some "four hundred million, tu Greece and Turkey, to uso as a buffer, against the communists. ' In one urticle. appears this state ment: "Never in our history was common sense thinking so buiily needed in America as now." How true this Is. One wonders Just how much of this vast stun is to be used in safeguarding "American ml company" interests, in the fur rnst, as It is to fight socialism. Why not really to make "I'l lvato Industry" work? Our most rabid radicals will agree that if private Intliistrv can supply full employment with a gradually increasing higher standard of living, with no war or financial panic, for the next 15 years, it cun then continue for any length ot time, free of any danger of communism. How is this to be? Consider the "Lincoln F.lee trie company," and the "John son Endicot Shoe company," these ui'o both privately owned, yet the workers own stock, have an active voice in management and through their slock and bo nuses at the end of the season absorb the major part of the firufits. are free of strikes und ockouls. You industrial workers of Klamath county note this care fully, last year Ihc lowest puid employe of Lincoln Electric company earned together with his stock and bonus, around $5000. How much did you earn? Yet private industry, this is Cap italism. It Is now possible for a skilled worker. In from 20 to 25 years, to produce from two to three hundred thousand dollars of values over and above his board and clothes, it is easily seen how vital it Is. that the worker absorb the major port of this money to 'supply buying power to keep "industry going steady." Wo now hove muchlnes, able to produce In eight hours. thi labor power of 40.000 workers. A very few operate them, and at times, just one man owns them. It is not too farfetched, to vision the coming of super ma chines to do the work of a 100. 000 men in eight hours, oporoted bv a few workers. Tho workers must absorb the greater part of these profits. They cannot be dumped In the laps of btickwurd nations, as free gifts, to keep the communists from our shores. Was American industry, or ganized along the lines, proven successful by the Lincoln Elec tric and Johnson Shoe com panies, a communist or radical would be hard to locate In the U. S. U. S. chamber' of commerce, please note. Our newspapers are full of articles on atom bombs. Here according to science, is the final outcome of open warftre of this dangerous discovery. "Re lease minute particles of radium active particles, to encircle the world." Once taken in the hu mon system they remain there. These have the honorable action of mutilating the future off spring of both the higher forms of life, as man, and can even ex tend to the insect life of the earth. Be assured this knowledge Is known to men of science, of the Soviet Union, also bv all means, in our power, is careful and com mon sense thinking, needed at this hour. GEORGF P. ALLEN.
