Or., on Ausuel So IMOtt. under March 1 in Sl'BSCHIPTION RATES: By earner ..mnnth l.oo nr mail By mall ..month SI 00 By mall Today's Roundup fly MALCOLM ErLEY THE city council's action last night merely extend ing the old franchise of the Pacific Telephone and Telegraph company for six montlis may be the postponement of an issue mat win r get a little warm when the council finally comes to grips with it. Extension, rather than negotla Hon of a new franchise on the basis of old terms. Indicates the council may have something dif ferent In mind. Whether the post ponement is due to reluctance of the council to take up the issue, or whether It actually has lacked the time to make the necessary studies before expiration of the old franchise at the first of the year, are questions that come to mind. At any rate, a few facts relative to the situation are a matter of public interest at this time. The telephone company, at present, pays a 2 per cent gross Income tax to the city, as do all other utilities. It also provides free telephone sen-Ice to the city, with a current value of about $70 a month for these services. Taxes IN addition to the gross income tax. the telephone company pays real and personal property taxes. According to the company's figures, the portion of its real estate' and property taxes for 1940 which were allocated to the city (on the basis of Klamath Falls' combined levy for city, county, school districts. etc was $8032. In 1M6, the company says. Its allocation of real and personal property tax for Its city properties amounted to approximately $17,000, or S2.33 per tele phone that year. It expects tha figure for 1947-48 will be $28,000. The company, as we understand it, would like to see the franchise renewed on the basis of the 2 per cent gross Income levy, but with the elimination of the free telephone service given the city. There has been talk of a proposal by the city for a 3 per cent gross Income tax, a boost of 50 per cent in this particular tax. The telephone company would probably strenuously resist this additional taxation, if the issue were raised. At last night's council meeting. Manager Charles Beavey of the 'phone company pointed out that the company, in order to carry on Its planning for the future here, needs the assurances that go with a long term franchise such as it has been working under. We take it that he Intended this as a protest against the mere extension of the old franchise for six months, as was decided by the council. In fairness to all concerned, a definite conclusion of the issue would seem to be in order at the end of the six months' extension. It should be worked out by that time, one way or the other. Population Question IN an attempt to be un-chamber of commercely con servative, on population figures, Manager Charley Stark of the local chamber takes issue with population estimates which appeared recently in a news story In The Herald and News. " AS It will be recalled, the Newspaper itory. based estimates on a 4.1 ratio between the school census and the total population. That was figured oh the basis of the 1940 state federal census and state school census. Stark questions this method, asserting that Klamath county has a smaller ratio of school children to total population than the state as a whole. Re goes back to 1940 and 1930 to prove that We think Charley fails to recognize that the char acter of Klamath county's population has changed over the years. Whereas in the old days, there were large numbers of single men employed here, even the in dustrial population has become pretty much a home population. Large numbers of industrial workers live The Doctor Says Dandruff Not By EDWIN P. JORDAN, M. D. Written for NEA Service Dandruff, which is also called dry seborrhea or seborrhea sicca. Is most common on the scalp, but can occur on other parta of the body. It is characterized by the formation of fine, slightly greasy, white or gray scales, which are shed freely when ever the hair is brushed or dis turbed. Slight itching is frequent. The condition occurs about equally i.i both sexes. A family tendency to dandruff is recognized and is often associated with early baldness. A definite causative germ or other living organism has not been dis covered, though there is much to suggest that some kind of infection may be at fault, at least in some fS,I' J?Uow, elther acute infections or chronic exhausting TUESDAY EVE., JAN.

This nil toes to put Klamath on a normal basis from the standpoint of the ratio of children ' federal census will prove Just what of the city and county really are, think our figures are pretty good. Days GEORGE E. SOKOLSKY received letters from descendant and Ralph Isaacs protesting com ments of mine on these worthies. Of course, the descendants are in no manner responsible for their ancestors. We can choose our wives but not our grandparents. A fellow recent!' told me who his fifth grandfather was and I should, I suppose, have been impressed. But was he responsible for his fifth grand father? Also, he said nothing about all the other ancestors and their grandfathers. Maybe It Is Just as well. Oenealogiea make exciting reading, if they are at all truthful. Most of them are not. Most of them omit the bad eggs, the bianco posnets, the little devils that somehow creep into every breed. My own ancestors were all wonderful men. or so the book says. Never theless, the best of them all was excommunicated for saying: "It Just isn't so." Maybe that is where I got the habit of tearing away the veil of sham. I met a liberal the other day. He is still liberal but he talked the way I used to five years ago. In a word, he has fashionably become a conservative. He will vote against Henry Wallace. He wants to beat the brains out of poor Henry, who, he says, has wrecked American liberalism and set it back half a century. This fellow has many liberal ancestors because he comes of a long line of Inherited wealth. His ancestors could afford to talk broadly while they counted in herited shekels. But he dares not pursue the consequences of his ancestral liberalism. Henry Wallace does. He has marched straight Into the communist camp, which Is logical That is where he belongs. Lots of liberals belong there even If they do not possess Inherited wealth or a guilty conscience. Anybody can reason himself into anything. That Is one of the penalties ' of intelligence without moral responsibility. e Distaff Ancestors BUT to get back to ancestors. Every time I visit a house that has a coat-of-arms sticking on the wall, particularly one relating to William the Conquerer, I like to engage the owner of the windshield decoration In conversation concerning the life and times of his ancestor. Those Normans were awful thieves. Al Capone could not hold a candle to them. They came Into good, old Anglo-Saxon England and swiped every thing In sight. If the Norman characteristics dominate well, you can reach your own conclusions. But what most of these ancestor-hunters forget is that there is always a lady in the case, for no one has yet discovered how to have descendants without a mother. While it is possible to trace the old man down to the fellow who handed the mighty William his stlrrupcup. they ought to do some tracing of distaff ancestors. They might even find that that is where the money comes from the Inherited money that makes current liberalism so free and easy. Of course, the trouble with American society is that it really has no ancestors to fuss over. These people who go in for fancy folderols about keeping their neighborhoods, their schools, their clubs, their associa tions so exclusive only too often have an ancestor one or two generations back who was a peasant, a ditch digger, the water-boy to a horse thief. e Ain't It Fun? IT is so sad. They never like you to mention it, although the reason they can sit around and talk liberalism is that the aforesaid peasant, eto, made a lot of money and then dropped dead. They were all cheerful about his dropping dead because he ate his peas with a knife. But they like his money, so they hire a genealogist who tells them, for so many dollars, that the father wasn't the ancestor at all, but that they really descended from an Illegitimate son of an illegitimate father through a trollop back in the thirteenth century. That cheers them no end and they get themselves Into the social register. Join a few clubs, become exclusive, eat rich food, drink heady gins and die broke because of the inheritance tax. The business that papa left them is sold to some reconverted peasant who is not troubled by his ancestors. Ain't it fun?

Tie World Today By DEWITT MACKENZIE AP Foreign Affairs Analyst L The United Nations' "Little As semblythe iron-lung devised by the democracies to try to keep the breath of life In the veto-paralyzed peace organization began Its per manent sittings at Lake Success yesterday, determined and possibly hopeful. The "Little Assembly" is the In terim committee of the general as sembly, and theoretically It com prises all 67 members of the UN. Actually, of course. Soviet Russia and five of her satellites Czecho slovakia. Poland, Yugoslavia. White Russia and the Soviet Ukraine re fused to have anything to do with it. and Russia warned that it might lead to grave consequences. The democracies established this "Little Assembly" as a backstop for the all-powerful security council which had been rendered Impotent through the use of the veto power by, the Soviet Union. Each of the Big Five powers the United States. China, Britain, France and Rus siahave the veto right In the council, and when It Is Invoked t stymies action. Veto 22 Tunes Russia used the veto 71 times on vital Issues, after which the United States sponsored the creation of the "Little Assembly" which at least can determine the wishes of the vast majority of the UN member ship because the veto Is Inoperative in the assembly. Russia opposed this project fiercely. The establishment of the "Little Assembly" was an act of near-des peration. While this body repre sents all the nations excepting the Russian bloc, It can only formulate views and has no authority to en force them. However, It can deter mine world opinion apart from the Russian bloc which Is anti-democracy on virtually everything. That democratic world opinion can be a mighty force. The Russian bloc was urged to Join the "Little Assembly" from the start, but refused. Despite this, U 8. Chief Delegate Warren R. Austln said at yesterday's meeting: It Is our hope that the states which are not here today will soon Join us." That's a pious wish, but we can't advise you to bet that It will come true. Still, If the split continues between the Russian bloc and the democracies the "Little Assembly" may be the source of a tremendous development the formation of a new league of nations which would comprise the democratic nations of the world. That would be an unhappy solu tion, but It would be far better than a United Nations which Is hope lessly split Into two blocs constant ly at loggerheads. We should like to see "one world" In operation. But If we must have two worlds. It's bet tei that we recognize the necessity and get the democracies organized so that they won't be shot like sit ting ducks by aggressive commu nism. So the task of the "Little As sembly" may turn out to be to keep the UN alive until a new league comprising the democracies can come Into being. Be that as may. If this assembly Is to prove useful I. must get to work with its head up and Its chest out. There seems to be a disposition to confine Its labors to non-controversial Issues, so not to give offense to the Russian bloc. Maybe that's a good Idea, but there are many who would prefer to put It this way: Let the "Little Assembly" avoid controversial problems where feas ible, but let It resolutely face all necessary problems, whether con troversial or not.

It was Interesting, because It was the highest temperature of the 34-hour period, and what It did overnight to the snow was In evidence In small rivers running on hilly streets tins morning. The reason Chuck knew about the temperature la that KFLW from the start of Its broadcasts, has broadcast the temperature on the hour. Most stations give the time, but LW gives time and tem perature, which I think Is a swell Idea. The temperature readings are obtained from the CAA weath er bureau at the airport, the tele phone call being placed by the LW technician on duty He then writes the figure on a sheet of paper and holds It up against the window be tween the control room and the studio so the announcer can see It.

N, J., Jan, 0 With tux reform scheduled lor early con sideration In the new uoitgroea, there U one change which has tiou sltleruble popular support. That Is to put a limit of 60 per cent on the proportion of a man's Income the government call lake In Income luxes. Harold E.

Mr, Hlnsaen i believes It Is un fair to require anyone to pay more than half of his Income to the government. At the present 1 1 m e. Incomes In the higher biurkets are taxed up to as much as 88 per cent. The issue of tax limitation was put before the voters of the roun. try In a natural survey by the In stitute, as follows: "At present, some people with large Incomes have to pay moio than half of their Income In Income taxes. Do you think an Inrome tax limit should he nlarrd on large In comes so that no one would pav more than half of his Inrome In federal Income tax?" The vote: Favor limit , Ml Opposed .. 38 No opinion .13 On the basis of those expressing an opinion, the results are 57 per cent In favor of the limit, 43 per cent opposed. It Is to be exirccted that people who pay the most taxes would be most In favor of the 60 per cent limitation. The poll results show that to be true. When people were asked how much money they have to pay annually In Income taxes.
