'ACE FOUR HERALD AND NEWS. KLAMATH FALLS, ORECON WEDNESDAY, MAY 12, 1948 FRANK JfcNKIN Editor Mjn.sm, editor L2 MtMHKII OF IHr AH MX I I HI fRLSS Tl Aaaoctaltd Pru U milled xcluaivtly lo the u fnt republication ot all the local nam printed In thli ntwi paper. wall at all AP nwa Today's Roundup By MALCOLM EI'LEV TO satisfy my curiosity, I've been making an analysis of the voter registration In the city and outside precinct and find that percentagewise, the republicans are much stronger Inside the city than outside. s Democrats have a majority lit ' both departments, of course, but j In the city precincts the republi cans come much closer to achiev ing oalance with the opposition party. For Instance, there are 21 Klam ath Falls precincts with demo cratic majorities and 13 with re publican majorities. Outside, there are 37 democratic majority pre cincts, and 14 republican majority precincts. EPLET In Klamath Falls, the demo crats make up 53.4 per cent of the total registration of the two parties. In outside precincts, the demo cratic percentage of the total is 56.3. This table helps tell the story: Demos. ' GOP Total Klamath Falls 4.529 4.118 8.647 Outside 6-305 4.819 11.034 Total ..10.734 8.937 19,311 Where Demos Are Strong AN examination of the precinct registration de velops some Interesting Information. It shows that the reason for the heavier demo cratic lead outside the city lies pretty much in the suburbs and logging camp precincts. Heavy democratic precincts In the suburbs include North Enterprise, (160-66). South Enterprise. (131-43), North AlUunont, South Altamont. South Homedale, East Shasta, North Shasta, (157-87), South Shasta. West Shasta. Orlndale, Stewart-Lenox and Pelican Bay. Lakeshore drive, (87-34) is the only suburban precinct with a republican majority. North Homedale is almost balanced off, with 391 republicans and 393 democrats. Although considerably outnumbered, the republicans have substantial registration in South Homedale (308). East Shasta, (334) West Shasta (311) and Stewart-Lenox (209). Camp Six and Camp Four, Weyerhaeuser camps, show strong democratic majorities. The count at Camp Six is 84 to 18, and at Camp Four 63 to 1. Shevlin, another logging camp precinct, gives the demos a lead of 307 to 79. Other precincts with rather heavy democratic ma jorities include Plevna, Bly, Crescent Lake (railroad point), Gilchrist, Sprague River. It will be noted that these generally are places with a heavy labor population. GOP Rural Strength IN the strictly rural precincts, however, and the precincts in and around county towns, the republi cans take the lead. Matin and Merrill each have two precincts, and all four of these are republican-majority areas. In Malin, republicans lead democrats. 354 to 290. In Merrill, they lead 338 to 258. Bonanza's precinct is called Lost River. Republi cans lead there, 188 to 103. Chiloquin is the other incorporated town in the county. There, one pre cinct is republican and the other democratic. To gether, they almost balance out 356 democrats, 255 republicans Some other strong republican precincts include Foe valley. Pine Grove and Klamath Lake, farm areas. Precincts in which the republicans have only a slim lead include Mt Laid (176-173), Dairy, Chemult, Langell valley. Precincts with the slimmer democratic majorities include Algoma (34-30), Beatty, Midland, Odell. Wood River. All Even THERE is one precinct in the county where the registered voters are exactly divided between the two parties. That is Modoc precinct, which votes at the Modoc Country Inn. There are 29 republicans and 39 democrats there. A few others are so close that they are almost in balance. In The City IT'S a little harder to discuss the city precincts, because they are identified by number and that doesn't mean a lot to people. By and large, the same trend is in evidence in precincts where the labor population is heavier, the democratic party runs stronger. A powerful democratic precinct, (170-80), for in stance, is No. 31, which votes at 1937 Oregon avenue, and another Is precinct No. 17 (194-86), which votes at 3205 Wantland avenue in Mills addition. A strong republican precinct (364-113) is No. 36, which votes at Roosevelt school, and No. 34 ( 228-97) which votes at 545 Pacific Terrace. There Is no even-Stephen precinct in the city, but several of them are pretty close to ties. No. 27, (1412 Crescent avenue) has 133 republicans and 134 demo crats. No. 3 (Baldwin hotel) has 120 republicans and 114 democrats. Disgusted WEST SHASTA evidently has the largest number of disgusted or disinterested people. There are 39 citla'iu there who have registered but failed to name a party affiliation. E;ist Shasta l-.as two socialists, and there are lone soclallsU at Precinct 5. Crescent Lake, East Malin, East Merrill, and Pelican Bay. There are two prohibitionists probably husband and wife In South Homedale. . Foil Outlook PARTY registration figures are Interesting now but they assume greater importance when projected toward the fall general election, when all voters will have the same ballot and the presidential, con gressional and state contests will be the partisan highlights. The parties will clash then. Partisan workers can look over the facts and figures related here and It will be pretty clear lo them where work will have to be done for their side, come the fall campaigns. Meanwhile. It's a pretty good guess that despite the democratic majority In Klamath county, more republicans will vote than democrats In the primary election. Main reason: More Interesting contests on the republican ballot. '' These Days By (.KOKC.E E. SOKOLSKV LORD ROTHERMERE recently raised the question of more newsprint for Great Britain. Certainly one of the most serious shortages in all the world Is that of paper If the truth Is to be known to the people, there should be a great many newspapers, magazines and all sorts of vehicles of expression. The shortage of newsprint gives a tremendous ad vantage to those who are plentifully supplied, par ticularly governments, and handicaps those in the opposition. Lord Rothermere raised sharply the issue that if we wish to agitate for our theories of a free society in Europe, then the European newspapers, particularly the British, must have more newsprint. Unfortunately, most of the newsprint today comes from Canada one country. Newsprint from Finland and Scandinavia is scarce and the price Is foul. Even the Canadian price is ou,t of line and in the United States some newspapers are forced to buy in the black market at impossible prices to keep going at all. Some of the British newspapers own mills In Canada but they have no dollars to pay for what they get there. They criticize the American news papers for using too much, but it seems that that is immaterial, for their complaint thus far has only been that they lack the dollars to buy in Canada. Now they expect to get the dollars from Paul Hoff man, head of ECA. aUas ERP. Newsprint Shortage IN a period of shortage, therefore, it will be the American dollars, taken from our taxes, that will produce an Increased newsprint scarcity for the American newspaper. The increase for Great Britain from Canada and Newfoundland will be 33.000 tons per year, paid for out of ERP dollar balances, and while it is likely that American newspapers may not complain too much about that, there is a fear that this is only a beginning, with other ERP countries making similar demands. Americans would like to know precisely how these dollar balances, which we are handing to Europe as a gift, will be used. In an official statement. Paul Hoffman "disclosed that figures obtained from official Canadian sources indicate newsprint production in Canada and New foundland during 1948 will be approximately 4.875.000 tons, of which 285.000 tons will be consumed in Canada. Shipments to the United States are ex pected to be 3560.000 tons. The proposed shipments to the United Kingdom from Canada and New foundland will be about three per cent of the Dominion's output for the next fiscal year . . ." It seems that much of this problem could be solved if the trade between Great Britain and Scandinavia could be stimulated by an exchange of British coal for Scandinavian pulpwood. England has a machine capacity to produce between 900.000 and 1.000.000 tons of newsprint annually. Of this capacity, about 700. 000 tons is lying idle, because the British are unable to purchase pulpwood. which used to come mostly from Russia, Poland and Scandinavia.

"Every spring your father starts out to buy a farm, but I can see he is changing his mind againhe's got his shoes rmiddy!" The World Today By DKWITT MACKENZIE AP Foreign Affairs Analyst Politics Enters BEFORE the war. Great Britain used 1325.000 tons, of which they imported 375.000 from Canada and Newfoundland. If they put their present Idle machinery to work, they could easily fill that amount. Today the British only consume 335.000 tons of news print and the impression is general that that re duction in consumption, while the machinery is idle, is not unrelated to socialist politics. They could obtain the pulpwood from Canada and Newfoundland for their newsprint mills at a cheaper cost than newsprint from the same countries. Thus far, the British government has not encouraged the Import of pulpwood. In fact. Sir Eric Bowater, largest manufacturer of newsprint paper In the world, so admitted on March II, 1948, In the annual report to his company. It will be a serious mistake for Great Britain or anv ERP country to use American money to compete with American newspapers for the supply of this essential but scarce commodity. It will create suspicion over all ERP arrangements. It Is starting ofl with the wrong foot. Much sounder would be the import of pulpwood to put the idle British mills to work. Why should any mills be Idle when there is such a shortage In this commodity and when pulpwood is available? Now that dollars can be used our dollars they ought to buy the wood and let their own machines produce the paper they truly require Further elucidation of the Ameri can bid for "decent and reasonable" relations with Russia shows that Washington didn't propose any con ic: ence but merely restated Ameri can policy and added that the door Is always open for discussions. In short, if the Russians have any special proposals there can be j Newport Girl Wins In Poster Conference CHICAGO.

However, high ly placed Amer 1 c ft n officials say that if the Muscovites have no proposals, there seems to be no ground for conversa tions. President Tru man himself took a hand in the clarification yesterday. He aid the statement made to Soviet For eign Minister Molotov by American Ambassador Walter Bedell Smtth represented no departure In Ameri can policy. The present interna tional policies will be vigorously and firmly prosecuted. On the other hand. America wants to make tt urmistakablv clear that she hns no hostile designs with respect to Rus sia So Appeasement Now this doesn't mean that the United States wouldn't be pleased to have Moscow initiate conversa tions, for she would. Still it is well that' the matter be cleared up lest anybody get the wrong notion that America is hitting the appeasement trail. Furthermore. European na tions are watching this development eagerly and some show an Inclina tion to be over-opttmtstlc. 8ince Molotov has chosen to con strue the American move as an in vitation, it Is possible that ft meet ing of some sort might develop. Apropos of this, there appears to be no thought In Washington that it might be staged between Presi dent Truman and Marshal Stalin. although the former has said he would be glad to see the generalis simo tn America. The value of such a conference 1 of course, problematical. It mlgh; have the virtue of further clarifvine the positions of the two govern ments. Still It must be said that the post-war allied conferences in Eu rope not only haven't helped mat ters but have made them worse. Crux of Trouble As Indicate: In yesterday column, the only thing which would help relations between the democra cies and Russia very much would be Soviet abandonment of a policy of world revolution for the spread of communism. That Is the crux of thp whole trouble. So long as the Muscovites are bent on Jamming the red ism down the unwilling throats of all nations, there can be no peace. Considering all things do you be lirve for one moment that Russia Is prepared to abandon Its world revolution? Of course you don't. Such r supposition would be ab surd. And on that basis any Amerl can-Russian conference couldn't get verv far toward settling their main differences. Thv Editor " l.flltr. .rtnl.4 ti.r. m.at n.l bf .nf.i Ih.d 1M w.rd.. m.tl b.
