I get rested up from vacation.
This writer has become a sort of
lone-man travel information Bu-
ireau In recent years because of
2 descriptive pieces appearing her
and elsewhere In The M and N
about various routes and roads,
about routes are received at the
office, and often on 8unday, as was the case yester
day, I get calls from local people or through tourists
who think I know about the best way to go some
where, rm no authority, but I do my best.
I mention It because so many people want to
know the quickest way from here to there. I have
Hone a rood deal of writing here about the route
to Southern California via Alturas, Reno and over
US 595, and tt Is true I have emphasized the direct
ness and the possibility for fast travel over this
route. If you want to get to Southern California
quick, it is good for that.
But perhaps I have overlooked making It plain
that this route, like the US M and coast route Into
the Southland, possesses many Interesting stopping
places and aide trips. Virginia City, Tahoe, Yosemlte.
Death Valley, the Sierra ghost towns, are some
of them. The leisurely traveler can have a lot of
fun along TJS39S and off on both sides of It, and
he can come home rested and with memories that
are more valuable than speed records.

OKI little Incident in my experience is indicative
of what I am talking about. A number of
years ago. I spent most of a beautiful Sunday
morning in the old graveyard on the hill above
Sierra City, early-day mining town deep in the mid
California mountains. It was most interesting two
or three hours. On the moss-covered gravestones
I read stories of mining disasters, of an early-day
smallpox epidemic, of the death of a young Irish
doctor who settled and died in this remote California
mining town in the 'eighties and .whose four broth
er back In Ireland had a tombstone erected In his
memory with the Inscription. "We Are Still rive.
Cars rolled by the cemetery at high speed on a
nearby major highway, their occupant racing for
some distant point In search of "something Interest
ing." I had found it lots of It there in the restful
shade of the pines and oaks in that ancient cemetery.
See what I mean?
These Days
By GEORGE E. SOKOLSKT
THX fiscal year 1Mb. which ended on June to,
resulted in a deficit of ll.sll.OOC.000 for the
federal government. Mr. Truman spent that much
more than the federal government received. There
1 no war. The president sav that there la no
depression. Yet we spent nearly 11.000.000.000 more
than ws received and any cltlaen who honestly pays
his taxes knows that the government receives too
much by taking too large a share of his earnings.
A government can always spend as much as It It
minded to, but It can only get money out of the
productivity of Its people.
Nineteen forty nine shows an expenditure of 16.
M,000.000 over IMS, which ought not to be because
as this country get farther away from the last
war, expenditure ought to decrease. But that It
not the way it la going. If every year that we
move away from World War II, expenditures In
crease, It will not be long before all the earnings
of all our people will have to go to the government.
If It la not desired that such a mlllenlum be
reached, then a halt must be railed sometime
and somewhere. Mr. Truman Is halting nothing.
He wants to spend even more.
a a
Earning Down
ACTUALLY, with taxes higher than they ought
to be. receipts for lwa were less than IMS by
$3,965,000,000. That Is because earnings are lower.
In a word, the government get less In revenue be
cause the people gel less for their work. It Is Inter
esting to note that withholding taxes, which affects
most persons. Including all workers, decreased by
$1.5(15.000.000. Secretary Snyder pointed to an In
crease of tSM.000.000 in tax refunds, but that only
meant that the system of collection Is confused and
expensive and troublesome. A simple system would
reduce the number of refunded taxes. Why collect
taxes that will have to be refunded?
Of course, one reason for the deficit Is an ex
penditure of S4.W1.000.000 for EC A. which we ob
viously cannot afford. If we have a deficit of $6,
000.000.000 and we give away $4,000,000,000, we are
startllngly like the drunkard who stands drinks for
the crowd but falls to pay his family's grocery bill.
If we lack the money, why are we giving it away?
ECA ha already proved to be a failure, as even
Winston Churchill and Bernard Baruch have testi
fied, but that does not mean that we shall stop
spending. In fact, when a cut was proposed. Paul
Hoffman threatened to resign, which would have
made no difference one way or the other, as Paul
Hoffman well knows.
Also, the commodity credit corporation upped Its
expenditure $1,788 000.000 for which there could be
no necessity whatsoever, and the veterans got an
additional $409 000.000, which the entire population.
Including the veterans, could not afford to pay as
the figure show. You never can afford to spend
what you havent got.
a a a a
What Government Does
SO, what does the government do? It does the
same thing that you or I would do If we spent
more than we got. I nearly said, "earned." but
actually none of this is the earnings of the gov
ernment: it is what the government takes from the
earnings of the people. So the government Increased
Its debt. For H year, from 1931 to 1944. the gov
ernment went on piling up its debt from $16,801.45.
143 In 1931 to $269,433,099,173 by the end of 1946.
That top figure for 1946 was reduced In 1948 to
8353393346J13 and everybody said that the turn
had come, but in 1949. we Increased the debt by
$478,000,000. And there Is no reason to assume that
we shall do better in 1950.
The Hoover commission showed the administration
how to save $4,000,000,000 on running expense, but
congress Is doing little about that and the re
organisations planned by the president Indicate no
saving. The Hoover commission labored to produce
a comprehensive plan. .but both the president and
congress are giving lip service but make no savings.
For Instance, the department of welfare I going
off on health and educational expenditures, which
will mean spending more money. In fact. If Oscar
Ewtng had hi way, there would be no limit to
spending. And w now plan to arm our allies to
the tune of billion.
Are w drunk or are we prudent?

BOYLE'S COLUMN
Scrawled Note Penciled
On Billboard Opens Old
Case Of Missing KF Man
YREKA. Aug. A penciled warn
ing on a billboard at the Klamath
nver village of Somes Bar recalls
the 11-year-old disappearance of a
onetime Klamath Falls resident.
The warning read "To whom tt
concern, will be in town before
August 11 to avenge the death of
Dick Sharp. Come to town and
watch the fire works." Below It
was the signature Pete 8 ha ley.
Although Deputy Sheriff Charles
BUrritt removed the sign, its con
tents have the people of the Some
Bar -Orleans area guessing. The
disappearance of Dick Sharp, a
thin, middle-aged Englishman, had
been almost forgotten.
Sharp dropped from light early
in the fall of 1938. Foul play was
suspected at the time.
While prospecting along the riv
er late the next spring, Melvin
Cross saw a car in the water. It
turned out to be Sharp Chevrolet
pickup truck. The serial number of
the engine removed by Sheriff A.
A. Rots checked with Sharp reg
istration. The truck had dropped off the
tate highway at Windy point Into
the Klamath down a 900-foot cliff.
Windy point Is two mile south of
Somes Bar.
Sharp's body has never been re
covered or a clue offered to his
death.
The Englishman, a native of that
country, was a carpenter by trade
and came to the rugged Klamath
river country from Klamath Falls,
purchasing property from Tom Mc
Hale at Red Cap creek near Or
lean In 1934.
The warning may have been the
work of a prankster, but It proved
someone in the Somes Bar area
had not forgotten Sharp's disappearance.

Hollywood Wriiers Are On
The Move, For Better Job
By HAL BOYLE
NEW YORK, oft in the old days
a Hollywood script writer had very
little to live for.
He supported a house or two. a wife
or three, some children, a few serv
ants and a five-star ulcer. This
brought htm little happiness for.
after all. he was only a writer.
And In the hierarchy of Hollywood
writer was Just a HSOO-a-werU
: object of charity.
His forlorn paper
dream the
script was
hacked by the
producer, m I s
conceived by the
director, am
bushed by the
actors, and left
writhing on the
floor by the film
cutter.
The only thing
left on his orig
inal product in
many cases was
a comma here and there. And you
can't hear a comma on the screen.
Today all this It changed. It It
now possible for movie writers to
get ahead in the world without
marrying the daughter of the man
who owns the studio. There la a
happy ending for them now, too.
They ran work their way up to
become directors, producers and
yes even film cutters. Some of
them now write, produce, direct and
cut the film. They run the show
from idea to screen.
This is all to the good In the
opinion of Sidney Buchman. who
spent a decade as a writer before
he became a producer.
"In tome studios 75 per cent of
the producers are writers or former
writers, he said. "And about hall
are carrying out both functions."

"If a man has the skill to write

should have the Judgment to carry
it out to know whether a set Is

"When a writer trying to Imple

Buchman himself wrote such

"The phase of our cultural life
that people are least acquainted
with is great music, and they don't
know the importance of this type
of genius. The great composers con
tribute st much to the world as any
man."
Buchman plant to mike films
presenting more classical and oper

picture on Beethoven's life. ,
"That one," he said, "would have

men go through this period some
what later than women do usually
between 45 and M.
Symptoma May Develop
Many men do not have any symp
tom at all which can be attributed
to decreased functioning of the teg
gland. Some, however, describe a
distinct feeling of tension with a
sort of inward feeling of trembling,
which It made worse by excitement
or fatigue.

Dizziness, palpitation of the heart,

Easy fatiguabllity may be present.
Waning of the sexual power, real

the result of gradual rather than
