California's population is gaining 45,000 a month and the 10,000,000 mark Is In alght. Pacific coast population, from 1044 to 1947, showed gains In va rious states ranging from S7 per cent in Nevada to 43 per cent in California, with Oregon increas ing 39 per cent. These statistics may mean many things to many people, but to the Klamath country, which has a heavy stake in agricultural production and land development, thpv mean a tremendously ex panding market for the things that grow in our soil. That significance, which has been mentioned here on a number of occasions, was brought out with clear emphasis in a talk made at the annual meeting of the Tulelake Growers association at Tulelake last night by Harry McClelland, vice president of the Bank of America. On the population growth of the West, which he said dwarfs many of the famous migrations of his tory, Mr. McClelland based an optimistic forecast for agriculture in California and this mid-coast re gion. "The long-range outlook for agriculture in this region is good," he said. The markets, he said, are at the doorstep of the farmers of this section, and those markets are daily expanding. He dwelt at length on the enormous pur chasing power developing in California, which, as it happens, is the natural and already established mar ket for the agricultural production of the Klamath country on both sides of the border. Soil Development Neor Moximum THE speaker stated that the soil is the basic wealth of the country, and that we have about reached the end of land development. American generations of the future, he said, must get their substance and build their civilization on the pro ductive land of this country pretty much as we know it now. Reclamation, he pointed out, is now developing what Is left of the available potential in good land a point of vital importance in this area where it Is still possible to Increase substantially productive land through the use of our water resource. Production from the land Is now at its greatest level in history, McClelland said. Production from agriculture was boosted 36 per cent during the war years. (Nowhere, so far as we know, is there a better-kept specific record on agricultural production than in the Klamath region. The gains made here in the last 25 years are remarkable). Per capita consumption of agricultural produc tion is up 6 per cent, and would be even greater under more favorable price conditions. Those are some of the facts and figures given by this speaker which we think make up a mighty Interesting and Important story for the people of the Klamath country. It was an outstanding ad dress, and one which, by design or good luck, was most timely here. Lillie Darby DEATH last week-end brought an end to the ex tended suffering of Lillie Darby, who was forced by cancer Into retirement from her years of music teaching and supervision In Klamath Falls. Lillie Darby was a grand woman, and Klamath Falls was always close to her heart. We know that hundreds of former students and parents of young sters, who first learned their music under her, will mourn her passing. By GKOKGE E. SOKOLSKY THE Untied Nations have, at long last, actually reached a derision on a major question: Uiey par titioned Palestine among the Jews. Arabs and Christians. For, It must not be forgotten that the paitltlon recognizes the special nature of the places sacred to Christianity in this region. The Moslem world voted with a fair degree of solidarity against partition. Some countries with size able Moslem populations, such as the Philippines and the Soviet Union, voted for partition, while Oreece, Willi a negligible Mohammedan population, voted along with the Arabs. Thus, a Jewish political state has been re-established Biter 2000 years of intermittent effort. It is the most persistent nationalistic struggle In history. No de feat, no suffering, no torture dampened its ardor. The Jewish state will now sit among the United Nations whose creation It is. So far as the United Nations Itself is concerned, its authority is now at stake. Having brought a new state Into existence, it cannot permit that state to abort. In the Instance of Hindustan and Pakistan, the United Nations was not a factor. Those states came into existence by treaty with the British com monwealth, whose possession they were. The United Nations recognied an accomplishment. Up To The UN IN the Instance of Palestine. It is the United Nations which created two countries. Jewish Palestine and Arab Palestine, wltli enclaves of Christian holy places. It Is the United Nations which drew the curious map partitioning the country. It Is the United Nations which sends a commission to these countries to set up governments and which will, undoubtedly, pass on their bona fides. Finally, it must be the task of the United i Nations to see to it that Arab does not destroy Jew nor Jew the Arab. And there, of course, is the gist of the matter: the Arab and the Jew must re-learn to live together in peace and to work together and to benefit from each other's toll. The Jew brought into Palestine, begin ning with the Chovevei Zion colonies in the 1380 s, a European standard of livhig. From the very first of modern Zionist efforts, Palestine did not attract the Jewish business man nor the Jewish intellectual. There have, of course, been startling excepts to that gener alization, but the generalization will stand, because the overwhelming migration of Jews to Palestine has been workers who transformed themselves into farmers. And the curious fact is that the European Jew who, in the countries of his nativity, knew no land labor, became In Palestine a highly skilled and productive agricul turalist. During the years of Hitler's power over Eu rope, many extraordinarily skilled scientists and intel lectuals took refuge in Palestine and. together with the large American-financed Hebrew university on Mount Scopus, laid the foundation of a high culture.

Low Living Standard THE Arabs in the Palestinian and adjacent regions live on a frightfully low standard of life and in trivial obscurantism The social conflict between Europe and Asia, rather than the religious conflict between Judaism and Islam arouses such antagonisms as were evident at Lake Success. The Arab rulers fear the rising standard of living and the westerniza tion of their own people more than they do the presence of an Increasingly large Jewish population. Having for centuries, for Instance, kept their women folk as chattel, they fear the emancipation by Imitation of their womenfolk and the alterations in their family system that are Inevitable in marriages of free choice and in women who earn their own livings as teachers, nurses, stenographers, sales clerks, etc. They fear that the reforms that Ataturk so successfully brought to Turkey will reach the entire Arabic world through the Jews who are Europeans by birth, habit and culture. Killing each other will help neither Jew nor Arab. The gangs of the Mufti and the terrorism of the Irgun which starting as a patriotic movement has become a racket will serve neither Jew nor Arab. What is required now is calm judgment and honest effort. The partition can be made to work and Jew and Arab can share in the benefits. In fact, from the long-range I On the line-up for tonight's ABC view, the benefits to the Arabs can be greater and I Plantations also are: Vox Pop at more realistic for the presence of the Jew will raise the Arab's standards of life.

The World Today By MCWsTT M.U'KI'.N'.IK Al Foreln Affairs Anutrsl The psychological Impact of nerve strain anil Mink privation on the common folk of dlsn-cssed Uiiiupti dining the coming bleak winter months Is going to play a mighty purl in determining the outcome ol the political upheavals ami es pecially the struggle between com munism and democracy. The Ills of the general publics between now and the advent of .spring are bound to be many anil grievous In tho countries which arc storm centers. And tho political purltcs which are held responsible by tho people for these misfortunes aro going to find themselves toting a pack of troubles, come April show ers. Take the situation In chaotic France, for Installer: Short Of I'mul The country as a whole Is. of course, short of food, clothing and many other necessities. Industry and rail transport throughout the nation Is largely at a standstill as the result of the communist -Inspired strikes which have rendered 11.01)0. 000 workers idle. There Is a terrible shortage of coal which, tiulte apart from Industry, Is depriving tho pub lic of fuel for win null and other household purposes. Paris, with Its population ol some 6.000,000, has been sutferliiK from crippled public utilities. Many homes have been without lights as the result of strikes lu power plants. Cms and water pressure has been dangerously low. Garbage has re mained uncollected and streets have been left unsuept for days. Tho stoppage of subways forced thousands of angry eltlrens to spend weary hours tramping the streets In severe weather. Theatres and movies have been closed. The only smile we have noted lu this who'e sorry situation Is tho In vention by r waggish Paris stylist of the "glovo of love." This Is a two-handed mitten for couples whu want to hold hands In the unhealed theatres of the capital. Well, that's good fur a laiik'li, but It would take a very warm love In deed to survive In one of those thea tres, even with the "glove of love." Winter before last I went to the Kolles Bergeres In Purls. The place was wholly unhealed an like a re frigeration plant. The spectators wore overcoats, scarves and gloves and still shivered.

Worst Yet To Come Hut to get back to our muttons, as the KiihIIsIiiiiiiu says: Tho worst is yet In come, lor Kianee. Thu win ter with all lis hardships Is going to strain morale In the limit, And the general public mail certainly Is going to assess the Illume for Its suffering oil someliuity. Thus the position Is full of dynamite politi cally. This fact Ih recognl.ed by all poli tical panics. l''ur rxiini, ' , (leneral Charles de tlaiille, the ' war-time l-'rco French leader, whom many ex pect to cuine to power soon at the lie ad of his new people's rally'' parly, Is said to be wary of taking over before spring, that Is, after thu country has punnril through the dangerous winter mouths. Uy Hut same token, the strategy of the communist parly, which Is iry Ing to get control of the govern, iiienl. Is to push the general Into power Immediately, with the Idea , 1 1 in L he couldn't survive the trials of winter. The reds, while unit on rul ing, prefer first to break De (laullc their most powerful runny anil then take over when tlio warmth of sluing has softened tho bitterness of the people. However, present signs are that the coinmiinlst strategy will bo put. to a haul lest, because a largo sec tion o the public already Is assess ing the blame for the country's, pre dicament, gainst the reds. The stif- ; leiing of winter may well add to j this feeling. Study Space Is Provided TULELAKE.
