Today's Roundup By MALCOLM EPLEV IN recent years, not much has been said about the Willamette highway by the Eugene Reglster Ouard. We don't know why, but It's true. We are pleased, there lore, to note an edl- "S nl.ur tn faaml htohn'sw ' funds to be uVed In pulling the great trans-mountain route be- tween the Klamath country and I Eugene into better shape. ' Speaking of the Willamette, the i R-Q said: "It was rushed Into service be fore the war; It never had final surface; from Oakiidge to Che mult only an 'oil coat' was laid on the native rock. No federal forest highway funds have been available to complete the job. EPLEY T"" 14 wny 0115 heavllT traveled major route Into California is 'breaking up'." Well-stated and true. There Is a need for Oregon people to get together and push for use of federal forest highway appropriations on those roads Quali fied for that support which have been badly neglected for several years. They've Earned This From Ui a N outfit that has earned the gratitude of Klam- ath basin people Is the Klamath Union high school band. The boys and girls of the band have turned out to contribute music and test to downs of civic and organization affairs, not only In Klamath Palls but elsewhere in the basin. They have always responded willingly to the need for band music In the numerous parades that march down Klamath streets in good causes. They played for the Merrill potato festival. They gave their services on a holiday to help make the Henley championship football game last fall a success. They played for the Boy Scout jamboree and many other night and daytime events. i Many of the band youngsters live well out In the suburbs and others on the edge of town. Evening playing has meant a lot of inconvenience in getting home, and special trips by parents and school of- flclals. Yet when the band has been needed. It has been on hand. Now, the community has a chance to show its appreciation of the fine contribution the band has made to basin activities this year. The KTJHS band has been Invited to participate In a big musical ex travaganza at the Portland Rose Festival in June. An outstanding program has been arranged by the Klamath group. It will be witnessed by tens of .(.. I - J 111 K-ln hnnnkli attanHnn trt Ilia WOUStuius auu -ill muaj ioiwomh " Klamath country as a place where youth and artistic accomplishment go hand in hand something which people elsewhere need to know. " The trip will have definite educational-value for the large number of boys and girls in the band. They will get to see Portland and parts of the state en route, and will be on the inside of a big metropolitan festival. To finance this trip, the band boys and girls are selling tickets to the Rose Festival. Undoubtedly, more people than usual will go to the Rose Festival this year, but whether the prospective ticket buyer Intends to go to the festival or not makes no dif ferencethe thing to do Is to buy these tickets or make an equivalent or larger cash contribution for the band trip. We owe that to these kids. Those who see this In the way I have outlined it will find ticket booths In both banks Saturday morning. Nudge Gets Results WHEN I was in Bend the other day. Bob Sawyer and Henry Fowler were missing from their editorial offices at the Bend Bulletin, but I saw News Editor Phil Brogdn and called his attention to a little remark I had made about Bend which I thought deserved some kind of an answer. In a subsequent edition of the Bulletin, the angry retort appeared, removing the slight that I had felt. Here It Is and I note that my full given name was used, Just as my mother used to do when a special reprimand was In order: "Epley, like almost everybody who has to live in Klamath Falls, Is jealous of Bend. He cannot bear to think of all the advantages that Bend has and of the many reasons why this beautiful city Is pre ferred over the place of his residence by persons of discrimination and understanding. Thus, when Gov ernor Dewey hastened here for a three-day stay In stead of stopping In Klamath Fails. Epley said the reason given was that Bend was a 'quiet' place. We can see his little grin when he wrote the word. "Okay, Malcolm. Bend IS quiet, but It's prosperous. It's clean, It's got a good hotel and .lots of good auto camps. It Is pleasantly situated. It has much that many other cities wish they had. If you want evidence beyond the fact that Tom Dewey spent three days here rather than In any of the other places available to him particularly Klamath Falls- look up the Brnd story done by special writers and a photographer that appeared In the Klamath Herald and Nrwa In July of 1M6." All Uie nice tilings Bend says about Itself have been better said, I think, in The Herald and News in the story mentioned, and In this column, If I may be so impudent as to say so. Unfortunately, I note that the Bend people are unappreclatlve of the little things that come their way. Mr. Dewey, who graced that city with his presence for three days, lost to Stassen In De schutes county. The persons of "discrimination and understanding" up there gave a majority vote against their guest who was also the candidate supported by the Bulletin. We did better by him here. A Cleaner Town PEOPLE on downtown streets in the early morn ings must have noticed, as I have, that the city street department Is doing a first class Job of over night sweeping. The streets this morning were as slick as anyone could wish. It is apparent that the city Is doing its part in the effort to clean up Klamath Palls, and the rubbish and litter that may appear later in the day comes from a careless public with no blame to be attached to officialdom. Here are two things that can be done to help maintain through the day the cleanliness that the street department establishes overnight: 1. Avoid throwing any papers not even a gum wrapper on the streets. 2. Tie down all behlnd-the-stores rubbish accumulations. Klamath Is cleaner now. Let's keep it that way. SIDE GLANCES These Days By GEORGE E. SOKOLSKY THE Dunn survey, which has been extraordinarily right so often, has made an analysis of the primaries, not to discover candidates for the presi dency but rather what happened to members of congress who voted for the Taft-Hartley act. It will be remembered that the CIO and the PAC and even some AF of L unions threatened to extir pate members of congress who voted tor this measure. They threatened to drive them out of political life. They called the Taft-Hartley bill a slave law and the communists conducted a bitter propaganda against all who favored the act. It will also be recalled that the reason that Harold Stassen thought that he might be extraordinarily successful In Ohio was that he was certain that "labor" would oppose Senator Taft because of the Taft-Hartley bill. He modified his attitude toward the bill In Ohio on the assumption that Taft would have to support it and Stassen could question its validity. So 92 members of congress who voted for the Taft Hartley bill came up for renomination and this is the Dunn survey report on the subject: 1. Members of congress seeking renomination 92 Members of congress won nomination ; 87 Members of congress lost renomination (for all causes) . g 2. Members of congress opposed by CIO-PAC In primary elections Members of congress opposed by CIO-PAC In primary elected 17 Members of congress opposed by CIO-PAO In primary defeated 2x (x) Pennsylvania (1); Florida (1). There were 14 additional primary election contests In which CIO-PAC failed to oppose members of congress who voted for the Taft-Hartley law. HL1 0 ll tew m m irnvief.

The highest number of votes In that poll were 47 for Speaker Joe Martin for first choice and 42 for him for second choice. In a word, in this poll, Congressman Hartley came second, which proves that his un popularity does not appear in the facts. These editors represent every share of opinion in the coun try and many of them must have been democrats Cold And Factual NOW, the value of all this Is that it Is an Index to public opinion about labor matters. Too often we accept as public opinion the violent articu lations of pressure groups who are able to over whelm us with their vehemence. But there Is a cold, factual. Inescapable public opinion In the United States which makes Itself felt In elections and In the responses to politicians, particularly to members of congress when they come home among their own people. It Is this public opinion that really counts and that results In such political overturns as 1932 and 1946. It is this silent response to the challenge of the needs of the country that the republicans are counting upon to bring them to victory. Similarly, Henry Wallace Is counting on It to produce a huge protest vote from those who, while antl-communlst. will nevertheless vote for him as a protest against the Truman administration and Its confusions and uncertainties. The poll of editors, made by Collier's for the use of their prize committee and not made public until it appeared In this column, is particularly useful as providing a spontaneous index to the atti tude of the moment. ton.

The Fat Man. FBI and Jury Trials all In the same evening. "The Disfigured Delinquent" a title smacking of acid In the face. Is the FBI episode. The purpose of this program Is to mrke it so clear to all that crime doesn't pay that no one with criminal tendencies or get-rlch-quick yearnings will attempt to com pete with the scientific opposition of the FBI and other law enforce ment agencies. Sheriff Mark Chase helps an old man dispel the strange illusion that he must steal to protect his little granddaughter. The name of this story Is "Six Bullets at Midnight." Don Brlggs portrays the sheriff.

Among the stcjis the third-party presidential candidate said must be taken to achieve eace was the "outlawing of all methods of mass destruction," ami Stalin's reply agreed that prohibition of atomic weuxina must be effected.

Winam. the fa mous psychologist, says that happiness comes and goes as regularly as the U. H. Mall. Ac cording to the good doctor, we all hare a definite cycle, In which a number of days are low, a number high . , and the others a toss-up. Your cycle is as unchanging as a hotel de tective's espression . . . and once you know It you can tell how you'll feel on any given day. We all have daya when "it ain't worth getting up," as Durante says . . . and now we can anticipate those days. And I guess the only thing to do about it Is grin and bear It un til the high tide of happiness N returns. If you're staying In town over the Holiday, be sure to see the Klamath Progress exhibits and the Air Hhow at the Airport The exhibits are Interesting and educational, and the Air Hhow Is guaranteed to be a thriller from start to finish, with Ham my Mason and his Hollywood Hawks really putting It on. Don't miss it. I Just read about a couple of young fellows getting 30 daya in jail for whistling at girls. I'll bet that really made them whistle.
