Today's Roundup ; By MALCOLM LI'LEV KLAMATH COUNTY'S Red Cross campaign goal il nearly $35,000, and It needs hardly be said that It will take the lull support of tlte community to reach ' that objective. But lull support of the community for 'the Red Cross Is richly deserved, and the Red Cross 1 campaigners, who have flung a challenge at neighboring Jackson county for a campaign contest, are entering the effort this week with confidence. Tills county, unfortunately, did not do so well In the 1947 Red Cross campaign, and the lack of reserves Is one reason it Is necessary to have a high budget this year. If, in 1948, we make up for what we failed to do for the Red Cross In 1947, we will be giving only moderately to this highly worthy cause over the two-year period. The biggest item in the Red Cross budget is home service, which totals $19,641. This Is I the social welfare program for veterans and their de- pendents. Here Is the big Job of the Red Cross, and here ' Is the basis for the strongest appeal for public support. I a a a a Veterans Receive Help A' BOUT 6700 men went into military service in World War II from this county, and an estimated I 6700 returned. In addition, about 95 per cent of the ' students attending Oregon Vocational school are vet l trans. This situation has Increased the responsibilities of the Klamath chapter of the Red Cross by six or J seven times over 1941. ' The Klamath chapter is finding, especially, that It has a lot of work to do for the young folks attending ' OVS. Just now, It Is concerned with several of these t families which expect youngsters in the next few v months. These young people are receiving GI educa l tional aid, but this, along with what can be earned ' outside school hours, is no more than enough to finance their living expenses. There is a national quota Item in the Red Cross budget. This money provides our share of funds for ' disaster work, wherever needed; Red Cross personnel attached to army and navy bases overseas; hospital J work; and a new and extensive blood plasma program, t There is a disaster item in the budget for help in small local disasters. For example, the Red Cross supplied a first aid expert for the search for the Snell- Cornett plane last fall, and sent some food in to the searching parties. Incidents of a local nature calling for such aid occur rather frequently here, and the Red Cross is ready to move Into such situations quickly. .' It It Needed ' sOMB other activities which are financed by the O current campaign Include highway first aid sta- bona at Crater lake, Gilchrist and Bly, the Junior Red Cross program, a water safety and life-saving school I at Lake o the Woods, first aid classes here, water safety classes, a home nursing class. J We have gone into these budgetary matters rather extensively to show the need for this year's campaign J goal, which will most certainly be reached If Klamath people are Informed of the responsibilities the Red Cross must discharge In the next twelve months. a The Red Cross chapter has an active staff, headed J by Mrs. Prances Palmer, a worker of long experience, i and will work effectively for the community, and J especially for the veterans. A successful drive will pay t for that effective work. By GEORGE E. SOKOLSKY OODROW WILSON, In pursuit of the principle self-determination and in defense of small nations, created a number of Independent states, among them Chechoslovakia. Not a one of them Is an independent state today. The last to die was Cteclio slovakia. It Is now a nation no more. It shall within days be a part of the comUiform, the successor to the third International. Stalin dances on Wilson's grave and two wars have been fought for nothing. The amaiing callousness of the human race Is best expressed In the present attitude toward Ciecho Slovakia. Munich in 1938 allocked the conscience of mankind and Munich Itself became a byword. But Hitler was not without apologies. In a famous message to President Roosevelt, Hitler wrote: "I am convinced, Mr. President, that, when you review the whole development of the Sudeten German problem from Its beginning? down to the present day, you will recognize that the German government has in truth failed neither in patience nor In its honest wish for a peaceful understanding ..." a a a a Complete Theft THERE are no apologies today, although the theft Is as complete as Hitler ever planned it to be or ever achieved. And the theft is ImperialtsUcally accom plished while the security council of the United Nations is actually In session. Perhaps it was timed that way to display total contempt for this body. And it Is a successful theft, generally condoned by a world weary of duplicity and war. Hitler even spoke with gentleness perhaps mock gentleness perhaps sarcastic gentle ness to Benes: "... I have made Mr. Benes an offer which Is nothing but the carrying into effect of what he himself has promised. The decision now lies In his hands: peace or war I He will either accept this offer and now at last give to the Germans their freedom or we will go fetch this freedom for ourselves ..." Stalin tries no such heraldry before besieged walls. He puts his vast International network of spies, quis lings, madmen, sadists to work undermining a govern ment, destroying the soul of a people: and when they are so weakened that they cannot even defend their honor, he takes them over, always using perverted natives to perform his task. And these perverted natives are always and every where available to do his miserable work, for there is power and a career In his service. Some are idealists who look forward to a federation of the world on a Marxian basis. Such recognize that In any vast revolu tionary movement, it is essential to have a head quarters and unified directioa Therefore, they accept orders from the Kremlin. Others are socialists who believe that they can move by half-steps, that they can accomplish a Marxist or even a Pabian socialist program without the com munists or In a temporary alliance with them. Des perate to put through their program, they often resort to coercion, to force, to the methods the communists use more efficiently. In the end. the communists take over. That has now happened in Czechoslovakia: it will happen elsewhere.

This is particularly true of the non-communists: social ists, the fellow-travelers, the associates of the com munists, who front for them, who pave the way for them, who open the gates to let them In. Every coun try, except those already absorbed by Russia, Is full of them. In the Russian-controlled countries, they are curbed. Here In the United States, they are more numerous and more dangerous than the communists. They spearhead the Kremlin's fight That was equally true In Czechoslovakia. The socialists have given 8talln the semblance of legitimacy. Next month or next year, he will purge them, but for the moment, they sit high and enjoy it. What Is the world going to do about it? Nothine much. Soon Finland and Austria will go. Then will come the great struggle for Italy. When Italy goes, Europe goes. For who holds Rome, holds the fountain. head of western civilization. However, one needs to nave a conscience and a knowledge of history to grasp the consequences of the fall of Czechoslovakia. But the world Is so tired. Everybody Is so tired. It la a wonaenui time for those who are not tired.

Wal lace Is a potential threat to the democrats is well Illustrated by po litical sentiment today In California. Whereas California was during the Franklin D. Jf?" Roosevelt re gime one of the most strongly d emocratlc states outside the South, to day in a trial heat poll In volving Presi dent Truman running against Thomas E. Dewey and W a 1 la c e, the piesident and Dewey run neck-and-neck. . t The vote follows:, CALIFORNIA Truman 42'i Dewey , ...... 42 Wallace 10 No opinion 6 The vote "vith the no opinion eli minated Is Truman 44 'i per cent, Dewey 44 '4 per cent and Wallace 11 per cent The extent of the defection from the democrats can be seen by com paring the above figures with the vcte In 1944, when Dewey was the candidate, and with the vote in earlier years, as follows: PAST VOTE IN CALIFORNIA Dem. Rep. 1936 election 6S"i 32 1P40 election 58 42 1944 election 57 43 Wallace's 11 per cent in this par ticular trial heat comes primarily lrom voters who were previously democratic. Institute surveys have found that approximately six out of every 10 of Wallace's present supporters were democrats In 1944. The Truman - Dewey - Wallace trial heat presents a significant ba sis for studying trends since Dewey was the republican candidate In 1944 and the vote he polled in each rtate is a matter of record. However, it does not necessarily follow that the republicans could count on the same strength as shown In the trial heat poll no mat ter what candidate they put up. The threat to the democrats con tained in today's survey results is on the assumption that the repub licans nominate a man with popu larity roughly equivalent to that of Dewey's. The three most populous states. and the three with the largest number of electoral votes, are New York, Pennsylvania, and Illinois. , Institute surveys have found that I the Wallace candidacy may be the means of pushing each of them in to the republican column.

The two became fast friemU and co-plotters to free the Czech people from Ausirla-Hiiiigary and estab lish a republic. Miisuryk once said: "Without Benes we never would hae had the republic."
