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.

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.

SIDE GLANCES

"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.

Springtime- will soon be here and
Summit residents are readying their

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.

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.

About one or two In every 100 per

Bump On The Head Leads
To Long Tale Of Woe
MAI. unvi.r.
By II A I. HOYI.r
NEW YORK. March 30 Ml
Oeoiue Washington never told a lie.
That's what the story books say.
But hutory doesn't recorJ whether
Oeorge ever had to explain how he
got:
Hi A black eye:
3 A bump on the hend.
ia A scratch on the cheek: or
If he did. 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. Because of this: Our whole
faith la based on the theory that
no mishap can befall a man going
about the ordinary chores of living.
If he does get a black eye "Oh,
oh, he must have been up to some
monkeyshlnes."
I am bringing up all this because
I have a "bump-cut" on the back
of my head mvself. I got It last week
on a visit to friends In the airborne
troops at Ft. Bragg. I got It by slip
ping and falling In a bathtub.
When I came home. Frances took
a look at the bandage and her eves
gave me a wife's wordless "Well?"
"Pell In a bathtub," I mumbled.
"It's nothing."
At the office I explained the acci
dent to the first five people who
inquired. Their unanimous reaction:
A wink and "Oh, yeah-h-h?" That
cured me.
I (old the next guy that I had
bem down to inspect a bear trap
being shown mo uy a mountaineer,
and the Jaws had snaptwd shut on
me.
"Clee whl!" he said, "you could
have beep kllledl"
After (hut I (old other Inquiring
friends that: ill I had been leaning
out to watch a parade and Uie win
dow banged down on me; 3i I had
crash landed In a gilder: and 3 I
had made a paiachute Jump and
come down on my skull rather than
risk spraining my weak ankles.
Everyone was sympathetic All
believed me. ,
