These Days UUaVRtPTlON RATES! month Si 00 B mall . monll S100 By mail . caoDtha 94 M aar SaOO Today's Roundup By MALCOLM F.PLEY A FACTOR In the rather slow start of the Klamath Red Cross campaign U reported to be an un friendly attitude toward the Red Cross on the part of soma war veterans. We have never heard much clear-cut evidence against the Red Cross from veterans, but we do know that some of them speak against It and their expres sions obviously Influence many people. We will not question the sincerity of those expressions, but It Is our belief that veterans who think carefully about the im portant work program of the Red Cross (and especially the Klamath chapter) lor veterans themselves and their families, will refrain from carrying an old grudge Into this current situation. The Red Cross here has a big Job to do for veterans, as the re cently published budget figures show. We have a large veteran EPLET population made even larger by the fact that the Oregon Vocational school, with a 90 per cent veteran enrollment, operates In this community. We are convinced that the Klamath chapter staff Is determined to render a valuable service to this veteran population. If the atmosphere can be cleared of this sentiment engendered by veterans, the Red Cross campaign can be carried through to the point where it can adequately finance the services the chapter here should render to the men and women of World War II. a a a New Bui Service SUBSTANTIALLY reduced fares and more schedules will be introduced on the Klamath-Reno bus run on April 1 by the Greyhound Bus company, which has taken over the line from the O. C. and N. The new schedule will make it possible for people living at the points between here and Reno to leave their homes for Klamath Falls, and return, on the same day something which has not been possible under the old schedule It Is also Important that the new schedule to Reno toes right on through to Southern California, providing a new bus route from the Northwest to the Southland via Klamath Falls and Reno. These changes are all advantageous to this entire rea. o A Good Season BABIES born at Klamath Falls hospitals these days will have a reminder, when they grow up, of the troublous times in which they made their advent in this world. For our newspaper now mails to each child's parents a small photographic reproduction of the front page of the paper on the day of the child's birth. Across the top are the words: "This was the news of the world on the day you were born." Looking at these interesting little mementoes, we cannot help but wonder what these youngsters will some day think of the adult population of the world at the time of their arrival. From the distance of the years, will it look good or bad. Ignorant or enlightened, sage or stupid? One fears that today's front pages full of world news look as If somebody has made a mess of things. But what worries us as we envision these grown-up babies looking at the mementoes is whether their own world will be orderly and peaceful and happy enough for them to make some comparisons that put us in an unfavorable light. We hope it is. o a a Memento For Babies KLAMATH'S Pelicans have come through the tour nament at Eugene as consolation winners. We feel, of course, that if they hadn't been "off" in that first game, they would have been there in the finals, and the margins of their consolation victories support that thought. But putting that aside, it must be said that the By liKOKUK K. SOKOLSKY What It Amounts To "pHK tremendous barrage of war propaganda is de I signed to arouse the American people to the truth, long undisclosed, that the United States, in spite of the tremendous sacrifices of our people, did not win the last war. A war Is only won when the peace Is won. We won battles, but we lost the peace. We lost It at Teheran, Yalta, Potsdam and Sim Francisco. We did not lose It in Prague a week or so ago; we lost it In the White House during the war. So, we have to face the cold fact that we may have to start all over again. That is the meaning of the Forrestal conference at Key West : It Is the meaning of President Truman's sudden speech to the congress; it is the meaning of all the excitement. Soviet Russia for a year has been engaged In a cold war with the United States. The objective of that war was the conquest of Central Europe, North China and Manchuria and Inroads into Western Europe via Italy and France. The two conflicting forces were, on behalf of Soviet Russia, the cominform. the international communist party, existing In every country; on behalf of the United States, ERP or the Marshall plan and the United Nations. a a Russia Makes Progress SOVIET RUSSIA has made definite progress during Hie cold war She moved her line westward from the Oder to the Elbe. Including in her area Hungary and Czechoslovakia: in China and Korea, the commu nist forces made great strides. However, the program has not been altogether successful. France resisted In roads and remarkably produced a sound government. Italy remains uncertain until April 18. Korea has not been conauered. The United States and Oreat Britain have not been pushed out of Berlin. Chiang Kai-shek ! has stood like Gibraltar when it was expected he would crumple like dust. Nevertheless, the Russians have shown great strength, a definite creative force, a decision to produce a universal state, at whatever cost, in Europe and Asia. This Eurasian state Is still in the making. The role of the United States has been complex. Politically It has not been possible for those In charge of government to admit that the whole of Roosevelt's foreign policy was a tragic, costly and perhaps Irre parable mistake. Those In control of government were his coadjutors In error. They tried to save what they could of it, but day by day. Teheran. Yalta. Potsdam and San Francisco plague them, particularly the Idiotic Morgenthau plan, the dual plan In Palestine, the double-dealing with Chiang Kai-shek. The Marshall plan of economic assistance became involved in the Truman doctrine, the latter sound if also applied to China, the former sound only If a political union developed in Western Europe. a a a a Strides In Policy SIDE GLANCES opto. t av tar MwW aaa. t. era a. a ear per. $7o "I'll go with you steady only on condition that you change your name to Joe Montmorency won't fit In my diary!" NEVERTHELESS, strides were made in American policy. The people discovered that the build-up given Stalin and Soviet Russia in this country since 1933 has been false and damaging to America. While national consciousness has not been aroused to a fervor equal to that of Soviet Russia, the American people have rediscovered their own country. Communists have no longer a free ride in the United States or in Great Britain or France. Fellow-travelers are marked fouL Secondly, the United Nations has proved a failure, as some of us foretold. It is capable neither of making the peace nor of preventing war. It has degenerated Into a ta Driest. The American people, while not ready to give It up, place less dependence upon it Inter nationalism no longer Is popular. This country is on the defensive. If we have to fight again, we shall fight for the United States of America. That is a tremendous gain. Finally, we have come through the aftermath of the war, economically sounder than almost anyone antici pated. And that is what counts. The next war, like the last, will be an industrialist s war. Whoever can pro duce the means of destruction in the greatest quantities and of the most devastating quality will win in the end. Therefore, we need not fear that is. If once we set our minds upon the target. Our target for a long time to come will be Soviet Russia. This is what, In simple terms, President Truman is trying to tell us. statu: By EDNA KILLMEYKK RADIO PHOUItAMS SATURDAY EVE, MARCH 20 KFLW 1450 kc. :HJ ftp)iu aWntip :u " Hometown Ntwi fata World iNewi bimnirr oaiurda hicai Ham :4ii ciciso Me pari e.-vt Uancoimtrft AttC Boa Mill and fia 8:001 be L.en lunger AOt t;dv bammjr Kac Mate Cnauip ship Game ItM " " :I6 " : " t:5 " 10;tMi tar d oil Melodin iv:l& " " V:MI Joe Belcbman Orca.

Squirrels And Birds To Be Well Fed CASCADE SUMMIT, March 20 Springtime- will soon be here and Summit residents are readying their fiee lunch -ounters for birds and animals. During wintertime the . V. Ariklsons serve the birds free meals on a platform outside the kitchen window and in summer they have the handouts In a blrdhouse style feeder. Odell Summit lodiie has a block of tallow on a ledge tacked on to a pine tree and the buds have done away with about half of It. Mary E. Moore has a short order stand for chipmunks and squirrels In the sunny days but It Is closed In the winter and the squirrels come to the bark 1oor for their dally ra tions. Other summer home owners have birdhouses and picnic stands foi the feathery creatures and ground feeders for squirrels and chipmunks. It Is a fact that the vet wild creatures become used to the people who feed them and actually sit and beg If the eats are not out or. time. One little chipmunk had th nerve to take his bread and cheese, lick off the cheese and put the bread on a limb for the blue Jays. Then when the donor bawled him out for it, he sat and chattered back at her. The chipmunks also have a car dinal rule that only one eats hn fill at a time and the others sit around until he Is through, then the next one takes his turn. One ate so fast he got the hiccups and the others gathered around trying to console him. going back to their eating when he came out of It. Only problem Is 10 keep the food away from the rats, which have a ten dency to show up once in a while.

It Is doubtful whether the Father of his Country ever would nave won his reputation. For there would have been no ute lor turn to say "I bumped Into a door." "The cat scratched me," or "I tripped and fell and cracked my head." Even congress wouldn't have believed him. and a lot of old neigh bors would have gone around shak ing their heads and telling each other: "You know. I never believed that story about Oeorgie cutting down the cherry tree either. Bet he hired somclxxly to do It." The truth Is that honesty Is never the best policy In explaining the accidental cuts, bumps and bruises you receive leading a normal life. Belief In such cases is too much to ask of friends. Invent Wild Tale If you want them to continue to count on your veracity, invent the wildest tale you can. They will swal low It more easily than the bare truth.
