Today s Roundup By MALCOLM EPLEY THE drowning of two Klamath rails men on an OdtU lake finning trip Saturday la a tragic open ing of the season of week-end mishaps, big and small, which you will see reported In this paper dur ing the coming summer months. Newspaper people, whose work Includes the unpleasant duty of covering these mishaps, alert themselves as the season opens , for summertime play, especially play out In the open country, ' ' , For play Is more dangerous than wort Pleasure Is hasard . ous. , . ; The' two men who lost their Uvea at Odell Saturday were vet erans of the recent World War. While engaged In the serious bus- EPLEY Iness of war, they had risked many hazards obviously more dangerous than a fishing trip on Odell lake. Yet they came through the war safely, and lost their lives on a recreation trip In the peaceful fast nesses of . our mountains. Fate plays Queer tricks. LelV not underestimate the hazards in those peaceful mountains. Each year the toll from hunt ing, fishing, swimming, pleasure driving, and other outdoor recreation mounts Into substantial statistics. No warning could or should stop playing, but It is well to play with a full knowledge of the risks . involved. . Our- lakes, especially, take a high toll over the ' years. They afford a great deal of pleasure, but they are treacherous playgrounds. Those who use them should prepare themselves at all times against tragedy. That, of course. Is the lesson that can be salvaged put of the untimely deaths of two good citizens and war veterans on Odell lake last week end. ; Tho fight FOK several years, we have been engaged in a personal struggle with wilderness. This par . tlcular wilderness surrounds our residential property. When we first moved there a number of years ago, the wild country came to the doorstep. We were younger then, and we plunged in with a will and with -vigor, beating back the sagebrush, the wild rose, the service berry, the wild wheat, the bitter brush, and the immense tufts of bunch grass that thrive in that neighborhood. At the end- of the campaign, we surveyed our Work with satisfaction, and determined the next year to .carry on further into the wilds. We must now report we have never gained an other inch. In fact, we have had plenty of trouble holding our own. As we have grown older, and more inclined to sit on Sundays than to flay hardy growth with a hoe, the wilderness has become more bold and determined to take back what we wen from it. It looks , like a "croosh&l" fgiht -, this summer. From our standpoint, it's entirely defensive. We spent our offensive spark in a single year. If. we can hang on to what we won the, well he doing welL .. News Behind The News 1 By PACT. MALLON ' WASHINGTON, May 26 Candidate Harold Stas sen said all the right-sounding words in his Iowa campaign speech advocating loan of 10 per cent of our national production for 10 years to the world. He said we do not want the lightheaded, giveaway, ten billion program of Henry Wallace or the sharps ter lending of the conservatives, but a sensible,. 'sound program to feed world needs and help our -own production. .'.,. ; Unfortunately he did not propose what he aald r even mention the size of It to see if it would work, You would think his first consideration would have been the size of the project, because he would first have to measure how big it Is before he could possibly know if he could obtain the laudable purpose. Well, our gross national product for 1M1 la esti mated by the commerce department at 1308 billion based on first quarter earnings. But this includes goods and services which cannot be exported, such things as barbershops and bellboys. You could not export a bellboy soundly, any more titan you could export "gross national product." But the commerce department has another ftsure on exportable gross national produce, estimating how much we produce which is physically exportable. This figure Is (100 billion for 1947. ' . Stosien's Plan IP Mr, Stassen wants to export 10 per cent of this, he has a 110 billion annual program, which singularly enough, is Just exactly lite same size as Wallace's. Indeed it Is ten times bigger, because Mr. Stassen proposes to do It each year for ten years, The whole Stassen cost then would be $100 billions or approaching half the national debt. For this year alone, It would mean we would give the world nearly a third aa much as the government expects to col lect for lta budget in taxes from all the people. The size of this project is 29 times the $400 million aid to Greece and Turkey for one year only. Without mentioning the amount, Stassen wants to lend It sensibly to foreign mtlons for purchase of our goods, which incidentally are so scarce they have run prices up skyhlgh. This similarly un mentioned incidental of the plan is the most Im portant part of 1': from our human standpoint. Un til we get competition In goods, prices will not come down, the senate survey says. But we are already today exporting to the world at the same rate Stassen proposes. Our exports are running (8Va to flO bil lion, which Is 10 per cent of our national exportable product To add another 10 per cent on top of It before competition Is restored would do something further to American prices which Mr. Stassen had better consider In campaign speeches to consumers. But all right, say we do It anyway after relief ex ports die down and we get competition. Lend 110 billion more to whom for what? Mr. Stassen says he would lend it to any nation but not especially to those who call "communist" the loudest. All right. For what? Mr. Stassen says we should not be expected to be paid in dollars or manufactured goods because the nations have neither. He says we should be paid in raw materials. All right, what raw materials? Name something. Mr. Stassen did not do this. He could not possibly name raw materials of which we need 10 billion more a year for ten years. If be had named any farm products, he would need a visa to get back into Iowa for another speech. He barred manufactured goods. Raw materials, he says. Minerals, maybe? His campaign would not go over big In Montana, Nevada and the Western states If he named some of those. The truth is we da now import about S31 billion a year of raw materials, about half of which are crude foodstuffs. We have a little stockpile going, which could certainly be en larged. But the question is where can he find need for 10 billion more a year than we are getting. Or any field for tlO billion more a year of importations. Good Old Doyt THIS proposition sounds like the good old days of not long ago, when proposals sounded good and laudable, but no one even added them up in advance to see if they would work or had a chance to work. Stassen had a good sounding Idea. Some govern ment economists say they could not figure out what he meant, and they are Inclined to think he was Just endorsing the current democratic program of 10 per cent exportable production exporta tion. They must be kidding because a republican candidate does not go to Iowa to sell a current democratic trade Idea. A better explanation might be that Mr. Stassen had Just returned from Russia where the public is never permitted to see the addition. The only possible workable suggestion along this line which has come to my attention is that foreign trade expansion start with a survey of the United States to determine how much we could possibly use or store. Start at the other end. See how much more world raw material is usable here. Determine first how much you can promote the Importation of products for use and let that fix the size of our foreign advances. Promote that angle and then measure your program to it. Then your advances would be sound, as Btassen advocates. Otherwise you will be Just giving money away as Wallace advocates, no matter what you call It cir how vague you are about It.

Britain Hit For Wool Manipulation WASHINGTON, May 26 m Sen ator O'Mahoney (D-Wyo. contend ed today that Great Britain is "us ing our own loans against us" in a battle for world trade centering around such products as wool and cotton. The Wyoming senator, who voted for the 13.750,000,000 British loan when it was approved by congress a year ago, told a reporter he regards recent action by the British parlia ment as putting an end to private cotton trading. (Parliament earlier this month passed a bill banning private im portation of cotton and closing the Liverpool cotton exchange. The bill provides for a government commis sion to buy the fiber in bulk lots, as was done during the war. Eng land also maintains controls over wool transactions.) Canada Calls In US Money OTTAWA, May 26 IIP) Moving to curtail hoarding of privately-obtained United States currency, Canadian Finance Minister Douglas Abbott today announced regula tions requiring Canadians pos sessing more than 10 in U. 8 funds sell them to the Bank of Can ada. The minister emphasized that no change was being made in the policy of making "any reasonable amount" of U. S. funds available to Canadian residents for legitimate travel pur- pme . ,ln the Past- residents would 'obtain necessary funds and permits from the foreign exchange control board through the banks. Abbott emphasized the new regu lations would not affect the free dom of American tourists to bring funds into Canada or to take home any money not snent dnHner thi, stay in the Dominion.

She said she read where there Is going to be a short age of berries this year, and If the kids didn't get out to pick them, they'd never get a chance to eat any. She was working under the natural surmise that the kids would probably eat as many as they picked, which is probably right. The thing we can't figure out is what it has to do with Klamath. There Isn't a berry patch in the whole county that anyone knows about bearing berries right now. Anyway, we done our duty and mentioned It now the state had better take warning! o a The Saddle club trio and a quar tet of cattlemen will be featured on the rates bureau program tonight.
