PACE FOUR HERALD AND NEWS, KLAMATH FALLS, ORECON FRIDAY, MAY 7, 1948 H eralii anb These Days tWLANK JXNKlti Editor MALCOLM CPLIt Managing Editor I Today's Roundup IB 1 By MALCOLM EPLEY ILL BPANOLER and all Die folks who have teamed up with him In the etfort to give Klam ath Falls Clas D professional baseball should be nilfthty pleased today. Thursday night's opening game for the Klamath Gems on their home field was an outstanding success. A capacity crowd it was really more than that was on hand to cheer the Oems, and they turned In a victor- over the Medford Dodgers In that home season starter. Klamath Baseball. Inc.. has Kjl done a remarkable job In de- ' veloplng a ball park as well as 1 a ball team. Most people were undoubtedly sururised at the ex- EPI.ET cellent facilities provided at the South Sixth and Crest street grounds. Here, almost In no time, a full-fledged baseball park has been developed, with room for nearly 2500 spectators, partially covered stands, line lighting and a field that will improve steadily as the grass grows there. It took a lot of courage and faith to go Into this project. It takes much hard cash to build a ball club and to build a ball park of the calibre of the new Gem headquarters. The people who did It have a lot of affection for baseball and for Klamath Falls. What they ask now is support of the Gems from the public here. There was encouraging evidence last night that they are going to get it. Despite unseasonably cool weather. It was necessary to turn people away from the gate. That was a grand start If that sort of thing continues, professional bascbaU Is made In Klamath Falls. Our only suggestion Is to start the night games earlier. There is a tendency toward cool nights here throughout the summer, and earlier games will undoubtedly help to maintain good crowds to support the Gems. J Overshadowed -pHE Stassen-Dewey affair has stolen the political show in Oregon. People are virtually Ignoring the governorship, secretary of state and state treas urer contests In tne repuoucan party, ana ine sena torial contest In the democratic party. The spectacle of two national figures campaigning so vigorously for Oregon's paltry 12 GOP convention votes has captured the Interest and Imagination of the people to the point where they are not giving deserved attention to the important state and local contests. Some believe that the effect of all this is to help the Incumbents, especially Governor Hall and State Secretary Newbry. The less attention given the nom inating contests for governor and secretary, the more likely Hall and Newbry are likely to win, according to this theory. It may be that once Dewey concludes his sen sational campaign sweep of the state, public Interest will swing back to the state contests. But shortly after that, Stassen will be back In the state for more campaigning, and that will probably throw the state office situation In the shadow again. With all this presidential business going on, it takes a little conscious effort to give part of our attention to matters closer to home, but we ought to do it. ; Candidates' Column J AK hope people have been reading the candl i VY dates' column In this paper. It is the place J where the aspirants for local and district office i make their personal statements on qualifications and policies. Not all of the candidates have responded to the Invitation to contribute statements for this column. The original deadline was set for May 1, but we can still take statements from other candi dates If they will rush them to us immediately. It is our hope that all candidates for county and district offices will avail themselves of this oppor tunity. There is no charges and no obligation of any kind. It Is a public service. By GEORGE E. SOKOI.SKY USUALLY, when a congressional committee or anybody else wants to determine whether a person Is a communist, he asks: "Do you believe In or plan to overthrow the government of the United Stales?", or words to that effect. That Is a foolish question. No communist wishes or plans to overthrow the government of the United Slates. He desires to extend the power and au thority of the government of Oie United States or any other government. He desires to expand Its personnel; to develop its functions until the burden of taxes is so great that It produces revolution and confusion and then the communists take over. Once they do tuke over, they establish first a coalition of left-wing parties: then a dictatorship of the communist party: and finally the dictatorship of a Politburo of a small oligarchy which produces proletarian dictatorship. The correctness of the Mundt bill Is that It meets just that situation. It defines the character of the Soviet Russian, the Polish, the Rumanian, the YugO' slavtan and other communist governments as a "totalitarian dictatorship." That Is precisely what It is. It Is not a democracy; It Is not a social democracy; it Is not a representative republic. It Is a totalitarian dictatorship, an oligarchy of a self-appointed elite which enslaves a people without mercy. Horrible Conspiracy "pHE Mundt bill places restrictions upon Americans which are ugly and should be unnecessary. But they are not unnecessary, as much as we may find them offensive. The fact is that since 1917 the world has faced this horrible conspiracy; since 1933 this country has lived In a nightmare of corruption of every tradition of our people, of our literature, of our schools, of the components of our people, of our society. The communists have Invaded our govern ment; they spoke for us, but against our Interests, through the OWI; they managed to Infiltrate our army and navy during the war and wrote a litera ture of falsehood which was distributed to our sons. They have poisoned our industrial relations with the object of reducing the productivity of our nation and so increasing the cost of government until the burden of debt and taxation become unbearable. Obviously existing law is Inadequate to meet the danger of this fifth column. The fact Is that many communists still remain In public office and a fed eral grand Jury has been sitting in New York nearly a year without result: men and women who entered In 1934 Into a conspiracy to Invade our government with the object of spying upon It and reaching high places to do It. are as free as the wind to continue their work of havoc. The Mundt bill says: ". . . One result of this method of operation Is that such political organizations are able to obtain financial and other support from persons who would not extend such support If they knew the true purposes of, and the actual nature of the control and Influence exerted upon, such 'communist fronts.' Foreign Agents EVEN more amazing Is the fact that while commu nism is legally respectable, many well-intentioned persons continue to believe that this fifth column should be granted all the rights and privileges of a traditional American political party. They are Incapable of understanding that all communists are agents, by consent, of a foreign government, who serve that government faithfully as a matter of creed. The "communist front" often consists of In nocent persons who, favoring some cause, become af filiated with the communists and thereupon are in volved, sometimes unwillingly and often unknow ingly. In the conspiracies of this vast International movement for the enslavement of the human race to a totalitarian dictatorship. The period of probe and Investigation Is over; the time has come for strident action In defense of our institutions. The Mundt bill is being and will continue to be attacked. Check the record of those who attack It You will find that many of them have fought every effort, In this country, to safeguard the United State? against the Soviet world revolution. If those who attack the Mundt bill have such a record. It Is not necessary to believe a word they say. They have lied too long and too often. They have demonstrated their enmity to America.

The Doctor Says Rabies Needs Quick Action Candidates Column Campaign Statements From Candidates At The May 21 Primary Election By C. L. LANGSLET Democratic Candidate For Treasurer First, I wish to thank and express my appreciation to our local news paper for their courtesy in publish ing the statement of my candidacy. Voters and residents of Klamath county, Oregon. I, C. L. Langslet, am your present county treasurer and am unopposed for the office la the coming election. However, my name Is only on the democratic ballot as this Is my party affilia tion. It has been my pleasure to be your county treasurer the past two terms with the exception of three years and four months during which time I served with the U. 8. air force In U. S. and the South Pacific. It is my personal opinion that the electlvei officers are the serv ants of the people which they have been chosen to represent or serve. With this In mind, this office has made a sincere effort to render ccurteous and efficient assistance to the departments, districts, subdi visions, and every individual who sought information or assistance, whether or not it related directly to the responsibilities of this office. While unopposed, it would be very gratifying to Mrs. Langslet, our two daughters, and myself to have the democrats cast their vote for me. and we would very much appreciate the votes of all republicans who wish to write in my name "on their ballot In the space provided for a candidate of their choice. Next GEM Game, May 8 Rabies or hydrophobia Is a hor rible disease. Fortunately it Is un common in human beings but be cause there isn't any good treatment for it once the symptoms have set In, prevention Is particularly Important. The victim of hydrophobia de velops inability to swallow anything, even liquids, and thus in spite of terrific thirst. The least breath of air causes the muscles to twitch and contract; convulsions and fits of furious rage are typical. After a few hours or days of terrible suffering the patient dies from suffocation oecause mucous fills the mouth a. 1 throat Rabies Is a problem In both do mestic and wild animals. It Is from these, especially domestic ones, that human caws arise. In New York state, for example, rabies has been problem In animals for sevenl years. In 1943 the disease appeared in foxes in Chautauqua county. In 1948 a total of 308 foxes. 440 cattle. and 377 dogs were reported as hav ing rabies. VACCINATE DOGS Although foxes keep out of the way of people pretty successfully, cattle and does do not. Since the cause of rabies Is present In the saliva of Infected animals and can enter the human body through a slight cut or break In the skin, there Is constant danger to human beings If dogs or cattle become Infected. Cattle do get rabies from foxes so that the control of the disease In cattle depends on eliminating it n foxes. In dogs, the problem Is to find and Identify the disease completely and early. New York state's experi ence Indicates also that a valuable help In the control of rubles In dogs consists In mass vaccination of these animals. Indeed, it has been sug gested that where there Is any dan ger of rabies at all, maxs vaccina tion be applied over a large area. A large part of the effort to elim inate rabies must be directed by our public health authorities. However, each person should recognlie the danger of this disease. If bitten or even licked by a cat or dog which does not appear well, preventive treatments may be necessary. Such treatment, that Is treatment given between the time of Infection and the development of the disease, is almost sure to ward off the symp toms even though treatment is not pleasant. Once the disease has fully developed, treatment is hopeless. THE DOCTOR ANSWERS QUESTION: Now at the age of 67 my legs get tired between the ankles and knees. Sometimes I have 10 sit aown and rest.

The World Today By OEWITT MACKKNIK AP Forelm Affairs Analyst DlWIH Mocatnllel We shouldn't allow om selves to be lulled Into any feeling of Inlne se curity because the communist of- rope has been f -j mwru uuwii. It's ImiMiilaut to r m e m b e r that we are not fighting a one front conflict, but thai the bolshevlnta are striking on many fronts. The agony of China and the critical position I ll partitioned Korea are part and parrel of the red world revolution. Moscow is driving hard to seruro control of all Korea, which fr.ini a military standpoint Is of the highest alru trglo value. Its ww Mlon might have a decisive effect on the oul ci me of the Chinese communist revolution and the domination of Mnnchurta. Early this week I.I. General John R. llndge. It. s. military rnmnmml er In South Korea, declared that a communist government of all Korea undoubtedly would be nu r.ounced soon by "North Korean stooges of Soviet masters." The background tor that grim predlc lion was this: I'nlty Conference The Russians, who occupy the northern half of the country, re cently called a "unity conference' to be held In their territory to frume a constitution for a govern ment romnrlslng both Northern and Southern Korea. Delegates from the American sector were Invited to nt tend. A nation-wide election lead. Ing to a unified government hud been proposed bv the United Na tions, but the Russians reircted this and refused to allow a U. N com mission to enter their rone. Mean time an election was scheduled to be held under American snonsorshtn in the southern rone on May 10 to create a new government. Well, two Southern Koreans at tended the Soviet psrlev. which Oenernl Hodres said ought to be celled the all-Korean communist conference Instead of the unltv conference. These volunteer dele, getcs from the south were Kim Koo. an avowed rightist, and Kimm Ktu-SIc who called himself a liberal anll-couimunlbl. General HiKlura said they hud fit I It-it Into a commu nist trap. Norlh 1'raUrri Keslerdiiy Klium and Kim re lumed from the "unlly conference which hud adopted the conslltulloii foi a government to rniiiprlMi all Korea. And the two nunc hark tie daring that their trip "fulfilled the expectation of a huge number of our fellow romilrvmcn who are longing for the unification of our (iilherliind." Kliiim Klu-HIc was U iiiI In his puilse of Hiiwlan ruin In the north, asserting that conui lions there are much better than In the south. So far as one ran forecast at this writing, the situation bolls down to this: Since there Isn't the slightest Indication that either the Russians or the Americans will withdraw ti i mi Korea, the little country must remain divided, us Is huppenliig In (Irnuiiuy. This menus that the ne. rupylug powers will have to main tain troops there Indefinitely.
