WEEK-END, 1948 finds the com munlty turning over thoughts bout replace ment ol the temporary shaft on Uie courthouse lawn with a permanent memorial structure of some type. The shaft, made of timbers and plywood, was built while the war was still under way, to provide Immediately a symbol of the affection of the people of the Klamath basin for the men whose names were coming back to us In ever-Increasing numbers In those days from the distant thea ters of battle. It was a thoughtful and wise decision. The shaft has become a. thing of significance in our com munity, a shrine and a reminder. Its very simplicity has added to 1U spiritual value. It affords an appropriate place for the conduct of services such rri.EY a those held this morning. But the shaft Is of impermanent construction, and soon will become shabby and unworthy of Its mission. Before long, something else must be done. . . Living Memorials THERE Is talk of "living memorials'-someUiitig T useful to the community which can be dedicated V the memory of our war dead. This Is a worthy idea, and probably there will be . number of such features in the community. One that seems assured Is the park to be developed in the lower end of the town on the banks of Lake Ewauna. A suggestion Is being considered by the community memorial committee that a community service build ing be established as a memorial. Such a building would be designed to fulfill the local need so well emphasized recently by the women of the Farm Bureau federation. For Beauty MUCH as we favor the Idea of the service build ing, we do not believe It should replace the memorial shaft. There Is a need in our community for something that performs exactly the function that the tem porary shaft has performed. There Is need here for a thing of beauty and simplicity that will ever serve as a reminder of the sacrifices made for us by the men whose names appear on the white shaft. Such a memorial will give distinction to our community, and mark It as one with feeling that Is deep and worthy. Perhaps It should be a replica of the present obelisk. In concrete and stone. Perhaps It should be a campanile tower In the same place, with chimes that ring on significant occasions or at regular Inter vals. Something of that nature ' should be the objective. We feel rather strongly on this question. This Is a practical country, and we like it that way. but there are things which we should do that are for beauty rather than for practicality. This is one of them. Fire-Messoge ... . - THE wet weather probably blunted the effect of the American Legion's recent stop forest fires program. It is hard for people to think about forest fires in a downpour. It was only by the grace of food luck that the stop fires parade was not -staged In a shower. But the fire season Is coming, and It will be a bad one. The same wet weather that dampens public interest in fire protection Is creating an immense hazard in tall grass and weeds growing everywhere In the open country. So It Is Just as well now to call attention to a message which Lyle Watts, the chief forester of the nation, sent to Walt Wiesendanger the other day. Mr. Wiesendanger is chairman of the Legion's stop fires program, and here Is what Watts said In a message to Klamath people: "I am glad to learn that the Legionnaires and the Rotary club of Klamath Fans are again holding their 'stop forest fire- drive. This program seems well on its way to becoming a permanent annual event in the community. "Nothing in the American way of life has ever succeeded without community Interest and support. Our fine school systems, the nation's network of highways and the multitude of other things that make this country such a grand place, all stem from an aroused community interest. It Is encour aging to foresters to see the genuine Interest and concern which the public Is showing in the problem of man-caused forest fires. In Klamath Falls this problem Is being approached and overcome by the combined efforts of all people In the community. You are to be commended for your vision and foresight In taking a personal hand In reducing the number of forest fires which result from ranvssness and thoughtlessness." SIDE GLANCES These Days not a never By GEORGE E. SOKOLSKY EW YORK. May 31 Memorial Day Is nnr.niv holiday for Americans. We forget our veterans tne veterans oi any oi our wars. Memorial Day was Instituted by Oeneral John A. Logan In 1868 for the purpose of decorating the graves of Civil War veterans, rt Is often called Decoration Day. In recent years. It has come to be celebrated quite apart from the Civil War: for to this generation. World War I and World War II are closer In our sorrow. Although we love those who gave their lives for our country and for us. we do not like war. We are not a militaristic people. The Nomadic races needed war to help them push Into new lands: we are a sedentary folk: farmers. Industrial workers, professionals, service workers, artists. Such a people thrive in peace; war places upon them heavy burdens, which often leave them weakened and confused. We have always felt that way about war and Uiat is why George Washington not only warned his countrymen against the dangers of entangling al liances which lead to war. but he also became the first president of the society of the Cincinnati who literally cast aside their swords and turned to the ploughshares. The glory of war is the mood of dynasts: those who thrive on the arts of peace find more glory In a Thomas Edison or a George West- inghouse than in a Gustavus Adolphus or even In a ! Julius Caesar or a Napoleon. Concepts Changed THE present generation, of Americans has lived I through two wars In a quarter of a century, i Both have been devastating not only in lives and wealth but in human values. Even our traditional concept of what we so glibly call "the American way of life" has been radically altered. We no longer think of ourselves as Independent Individ uals: Instead we place an emphasis on government, its authority and services, which are becoming more akin to' the European countries, when every Ameri can's ancestors fled here to find liberty. Slowly we are developing a huge veteran class, subsidized out of taxes, receiving enormous benefits (slight perhaps for the Individual: an unbearable burden In the aggregate). No one can gainsay a moral or even a financial recognition of the men and women who risked their lives that their country might not be conquered. And no one does. Ye:, they, the veterans, .will one day become conscious of the fact that a national- budget which runs be tween t30.000.000.000 and $50,000,000,000 annually and the latter figure may come sooner than we expect deprives them of opportunities In life and of individual liberties which make the small veteran benefits they, as individuals, do receive not worth while. Their generation and their children's will have to deal with that problem. No one. today, seems to be willing even to discuss It. A slightly thrifty and economical house ot representatives has been nega tived by a vote-conscious senate, which adds ap propriation upon appropriation without counting costs today or in the'Iuture. ' ' . We Should Not Forget BUT Memorial Day Is really not for such a discus sion as this. Let us rather think of that short sightedness ot a nation which would reduce in rank Admiral Raymond Spruance. Admiral H. Kent Hew itt. Admiral Thomas Kinkald. General Omar Brad ley, General Mark Clark. General Jacob Devers. General Thomas Handy. General Courtney Hodges, General Joseph McNarney. General George Kenney, and General Carl Spaatz. Generals Bradley. Devers, McNarney. Kenney and Spaatz hold positions which carry with them the rank of full general, but once removed from these duties, they too will lose a star because the armed services must reduce by July 1 a specified number of four-star generals and equiv alent admirals. It seems to me all wrong that those who re ceived their four stars in fighting a war should be V'r7 eoe. tw tr nf s f Kt wc t s, ate, w s oT 0 S-3t "She threatened to kill me if I didn't tell him the wasn't at home I wouldn't do it, and now listen to her oozing (wtetness and personality:" The World Today IV lirWUT IMAl KENIK AP Foreign Affairs Aitll "l i The lull of a heroic future from his pollllcnl pedestal always la a matter of regret, and so It Is Unit we find the world at large, lrrrwc live ol lili'iiliHtU'Kl beliefs or Inter liatlnnnl leaning, shocked at the disaster which linn overtaken fiiiunua old Field Marshal Jan Christian Smuts, A measure of his stature may be seen In the fact Uiat the average IrumOimN. nl p t r i r i probably The Gallup Poll Public Prefers UMT Over Selective Draft O.Will MniB.nll. wrought by the lit (,i;oit(K t; M i l r Director, American Institute ( Public Opinion PMNCKTON, N.

It Isn't finished when the mortal debris and the broken weapons are taken away and the crops cover the maimed earth again. There's much more to it than that. It takes genera tions to clean up a battlefield. One lifetime for the hurt to heal, perhaps several lifetimes for the hate to heal. And eventually someone has to foot the bill for the battlefield. America today lays memorial - ,h nn the graves of all the servicemen who died to keep the nation's pattern of freedom. It is a land sun oui-r cleaning up Its battlefields, old and new. Only two of Its nine wars have been written off the books. They are the Revolutionary war and the War of 181S. The others are still being paid for. Pensions raid T don't know tlonary war cost to fight, but at least 4044 of the 250.000 to 395.000 soldiers were killed. The govern- ment afterward paid pensioners: $70,000,000. The War of 1812-15 cost 1119.624. 000 to fight. Incomplete records list iai nf the 528574 troops as killed. Hiram Cronx, the last veteran of the war, died in 1905. But one widow ot an 1812 soldier was still getting a 400 000 veterans of its wars. Well above 3.000.000 disabled veterans or survivors of deceased veterans draw monthly pensions. The veterans' program this year will cost about twice what it cost Abraham Lincoln to wage a four-year war.

SI. 000 Killed The first World War sent 4,800.000 Americans Into uniform. More than 51 .000 were killed or died of combat wounds and (6,000 died of "flu" and other diseases.

Still owed and unpaid by for elitn countries from this first World War Is about $18,000,000,000. The second World War cost soared above three hundred billion dollars.
