PACE FOUR HERALD AND NEWS, KLAMATH FALLS, OREGON WEDNESDAY, JAN. 7. 1948 FRANK JKNK1N1 Editor MALCOLM El'I.KT Managing Editor Today's Roundup By MALCOLM EPLKY nN Hie rare occasion when there Is an especially ,,,-rt nH sustained rain In the Klamath coun try, I call Lalon Stephens of the reclamation bureau on the telephone and ask mm. "Ik this a Fort Bidwell year?" I did it this morning, and his answer was firmly negative. Its too lato, he said, for a Fort Bid well year. What we call a Fort Btdwcll year. If one ever occurs again, will be a year that sees 36 inches of rainfall or thereabouts in a five-month period. That's what happened, approxi mately 80 years ago, when the only records that were kept In this region were at Fort Bidwell (about 100 miles soutnoasi oi here) where the army maintained a tiny frontier outpost. Either they had 36 inches of ram In fivt months that year, or Uiey had an exceptionally ac tive weather observer on the post who liked to make entries on the books. What that much rainfall would do in this area where the normal Is about 13 inches-Is something that has caused the reclamation bureau considerable concern. Flood control and reclamation planning necessarily must take into consideration the maxi mum runoff that could come and the only way that can be Judged Is by the past records. That Fort Bidwell year is in the past records, and that has something to do with the thinking behind such projects as the Boundary dam on Lost river, enlarg ing the diversion canal between Lost river and Klamath river, channelling Lost river in Its upper reaches, enlarging the Modoc tunnel pumping power between Tule and Lower Klamath lakes, strengthen ing protective dikes on Tule lake and other flood protection plans. In this basin, where two natural lakebeds have been drained and settled and are now a major part of the area economy, flood protection against all possibilities is a matter of vital importance. It shouldn't take much arguing to make everybody see that. Did His Duty AN angle of the Franklin murder case that de serves special attention was the admirable ac tions of Deputy Sheriff John Franklin of Multnomah county, on whom fell the difficult duty of placing his own brother under arrest for the alleged slaying of his wife. Deputy Sheriff Franklin did his duty as an of ficer of the law immediately upon hearing the oral story from the hps of Homer Franklin. He took his brother into town and turned him over to the dis trict attorney. He made no effort to shield his brother from the consequences of the story, per mitting Homer's story to stand or fall on its merits. John Franklin has a fine reputation as a law enforcement officer in Portland after 22 years of service. What he did in this case, under very painful and unfortunate personal circumstances, did nothing to damage that reputation. These Days By GEORGE E, EOKOLSKY THE Damon Runyan committee, which has been raising funds to fight cancer and has done it re markably well, held a contest for a definition of communism as part of its program. They must have received some extrordinarily interesting definitions. most of which arc undoubtedly confused but give an Index to American thinking on the subject. The prlre-winning reply Is aa follows: "A communist is one who would like to divide everything, particularly these United Stales." This may be facetious but It Is wholly Incorrect. The communists do not wish to divide wealth; they seek to concentrate It. They do not believe in divid ing up the United Stales: they do believe In taking over the whole United Slates and even the whole entire world, filling all countries Into their Soviet system and controlling all of mankind from a single world headquarters In Russia. In a word, their concern is not with division or subtraction but solely with addition. ..' I Division Under Capitalism UNDER ihc capitalist system, wealth, is Individu ally held, more or less, according to earnings, savings. Investment and inheritance. The individual s wealth may increase by profits or interest or rents, or It may decrease by losses. The means of produc tion and distribution Is privately held and operated. Fearful of monopolies, the government regulates these private holdings with the object of maintaining competition, avoiding conctntrntlon of wealth and power. The redistribution of wealth Is further ac complished by Inheritance and Income taxes and, to some extent, by public spending. Capitalism is then a system in which the results of productivity are divided, a great many individuals receiving a share either directly through wages, sal aries, interest or indirectly through the distribution of the proceeds of taxes. When the division is slow, sleps are taken to speed it up. the object being to avoid concentration. Capitalist criticism of the new deal was based, to no small degree, upon objections to its tendency to concentrate the ownership of wealth in the hands of the government through the RFC and some 50 government corporations, includ ing such an agency as TV A. Whether such criticism was correct or not is not pertinent to this particular discussion: it is mentioned here to Indicate that con centration of wealth by government is abhorrent to capitalism. Under communism, the government owns and operates the means of production and distribution. Although wages of a varying scale are paid, profits and losses can be earned only by the government. All productive and distributive agencies are govern ment monopolies. In fact, communism is a monopo listic system which tolerates no division of the fruits of production except as the slate, which owns every thing, temporarily permits to serve its own purposes. Snowball THAT is why the Damon Runyan prize-winner, as so many others, is in error. Such persons have somehow gamed the impression that communists wish to divide up privately-owned wealth. They want no such thing. They wish to take away privately owned wealth, to abolish it. to make it part of the state as a school or a park or a garbage incinerator is part of the slate. I That is one reason why many people are com munists without knowing it. They would extend the powers of the state for the eenerol u.if.r. tv,. say until private wealth, private profit and private enterprise cease to exist. Many such persons believe that they know how far they can go in expanding the state without flopping over into the tyrarj-.y of Marxism. They do not know. Nobody does. Once the snowball of state authority begins to roll, it is diffi cult to stop it Certainly, it never stops of Its own accord. If the state is once embarked on a monopo listic program of concentrating economic power It continues in that direction until It is, by force, re versed. It usually ends in slavery. Many capitalists in the democratic and republi can parties are constantly advocating measures to limit the divisions under capitalism; the same men frown upon the logical consequences of their acts Yet they actually pave the way for a Marxian state.' that Is, one in which the division of wealth is re duced to a minimum-m which the state becomes a monstrously gigantic enslaver of man to its monopo listic powers.

The World Today Hv HEWITT MACKENZIE AP lorclin Affairs Analyst STATIC By MALCOLM EPLtY Boyle's Column Being A Godfather Is Easy, But Does Have Drawbacks Br HAL BOVI.E NEW YORK, Jan. 7 iPH-Child guidance experts never bother to give advice to the people who need it most godfathers. Their books on the care and feed ing of ordinary children have more rules than a modern landlord's lease. But they are all written for parents the people who have chil dren. You can find therein how to burp Junior, how to decide whether he has colic or cigarette cough, nr how to tell him about the stork and who brings Santa Claus. But a man will scan them in vain for the slightest hint on how to get along with his godchild. This is unfair and undemocratic and dis criminates against a large and little appreciated class. Few people give much thought to the matter, but actually there are probably more godfathers in America than there are fathers. Take a family with four children, for example. They all have the same father unless mama took a trip to Reno along the way but each has a different godfather, four in all. You'd think that with tv.. oi,.it population simply crawling with godfathers someone would write a book for them. But nol Their duties, privileges and responsibilities are usually kissed off vaguely by the proud father in this manner: "You're little Junior's godfather. I know that if anything happens to me you'll watch over him until he can stand on his own feet." Outside of that pleasant prospect, the godfather has no more work to do than a stand-in for a cigar store wooden Indian. Some time ago a friend an nounced he wanted me to be god father to his son. I accepted grate fully. I like kids but I am still batting .000 in the paternity league mVself. so T thntlo-ht thi. tt.,.,IH enable me to have some of the Joys u' cmia-raising oy proxy. Well. I went over one day and my friend formally Introduced me to my squirming godson: Nice Man "See the nice man Tj.fru u.'. your godfather. If anything hap pens to daddy, the nice man will send you through college." The infant took one look at me and let out a yell as If I had scalped him. He wept and screamed and got red in the face, and every time I even glanced his way he broke out in wild calls of terror. That was a year ago. Every month or so I drop by to visit him. The same thing happens every time. He sees "that nice man" and Im mediately erupts in a walling Niagara of tears. If I bring him small presents he will accept them only if relayed through a third per son. At the age of fourteen months he has only one word of greeting for me: "Ugh!" Is that any way for a well brought up baby to say hello to his god father? I get along famously with every other kid In the neighbor hood. They even drop by sometimes to share their used bubble gum. But all my godson ever says is "Ugh." The only thing r can figure out is that the child is allergic to higher education. Deb Addison, who works in the advertising department and has time to listen lo the radio on Satur day mornings, tells me that there is a kids' program on KFLW that should get the approval ol the most cautious mother or finicky child welfare worker. Its an ABC net work Job called "Land of the Lost" and it's built along the line of Lewis Carroll's "Alice in Wonderland." There are lobsters that growl and little fish that squeak and other things that drew the approval of our hArdbolled advertising man, who says it's wholesome entertain ment in worthy contrast to the gang and crime stuff that Jams the air waves and threatens to turn the youth of the nation into nervous wrecks or public enemies. What do you do with old radio cabinets? I've got several In my at tic, left over after their Inner work ings either Just went bad or were removed for scientific experiments by the kids around my house. They aren't bad looking bits of furniture, but I've never figured out just what to do with them. Suggestions would be appreciated from anybody who has had luck using these things lor some worthwhile purpose.. ILL RALEIGH. N. C.

Jan. 7 lPr Three state and federal agencies and county service officers will Inaugurate a new plan next Saturday to guaran tee reemployment rights of Oregon veterans. The agencies are the state de partment of veterans' affairs, fed eral reemployment rights division, and the state unemployment com pensation commission. Contract For Pumice Made A contract covering the removal of pumice from state forest land '.n Klamath county has been entered Ir.to between the state forestry de partment and Alfred Castel. it was announced in the latest issue of The Forest Log. The price haa been fixed at 15 cents per yard, three cents of which has been set aside In a special fund by the stale forestry department for the purpose of re storing the area after the work is completed. Castel slates that the contract Is more or less on an experimental basis In order to determine whether the pumice Is of a quality that will adapt Itself to construction of building blocks. He will ship a few gondolas and If the Initial attempt Ii a success he expects to go Into the business on a large scale. Interest In the state pumice was first evidenced last, year when sev eral applications were made for purchase, following exploratory work. State forestry employes made a survey of the Ynwkey tract and set aside an area of approximately a mile and a half in length and from an eighth to a quarter of a mile wide for the purpose of mining pumice. The pumice was put up for sale on a competitive bidding basis but It was not until Castel submit ted his proposal that the contract was finally signed. Moulding building blocks out of Klamath pumice was an Industry that started some years ago. One of the early factories was located neat Chcmtilt. Since that time many other factories have started. A generation ago the French In come lux ctillet'tora held a con ference which reached the conclu sion that It was Impossible to col lect an Income tax In France. The most astonishing feature ot this was that It srenirtl to be re garded as a natural phenomenon and few folk, excepting maybe the tnlntstrr of finance, were greatly worried. Those were the "good old days" when life ran sweetly, when Ihe sidewalk rnfes were full of a summer'! eve and the restaurants tilt! a thriving bu.iluc.ia at reason able prices In short, days when the amply cushioned Frenchman had to loosen his belt rather than tighten it. Night before la.it a harrassed French national assembly adopted what la wrhaM the most drastic tax measure In the history of mod ern France. It Is a heavy surtax alined at those already paying taxes on profits fanners, business men. doctors, lawyers and of course nil persons In the upper brackets. The tux can be escaped by Investing the same amount In government bonds -a forced loan. This plan repiT sents Premier Schumun's method of rescuing his rountrv from the fierce economic crisis Willi which It is i striiKKllng. Five Tlinea Tried Five times communists and other opponents of the government made efforts to amend the measure. Five times Schuman. w ith his own poll Ileal life in his hands, dared the storm by making the vote one of confidence m his regime. And five limes his supiwrtrrs rallied under the pressure of party whips and rejected Ihe amendments. A defeat would have meant the premier's resignation with his cabinet. It was an eplt exhibition of cour age by the head ot a shaky emer gency government. So complicated Is the. political situation that some observers feel the downfall of the htclmman regime might even have 1 been followed by the collapse of the I fourth republic Itself.

Most of the decrease was caused by the fact that shipyard workers claimed only 11.500.000 In benefits In 1047, compared with $11,000,000 in 1948. Time and again the allied mili tary tried to persuade these people to move bark to safer areas, but they clung to the soil which was their birthright.
