Thla la the time ol year ol heavy recreation travel on thla road, and there la much public tntereat In the prospects tor let ting that route out of th dust. Several attempt hav been made to get some official In formation that would give def inite date and figure. Bo far, they have not been successful.

It was reported her that $460,000 would be available from forest road fund for th west side road. Later, It waa reported that such oney could not be spent on th west aid this year, 'because of th necessity of concentrating forest fund on th Important Wlllamew highway Improvement under war thla year. Thla waa acceptable to moat local people, I believ. In view of th recognised neoeaslty of bringing th Willamette up a standard. But since then. It has . been bard to find out tf the $490,000 would be available next year, or lust what plana there are for west side Improvement. The tun ha com to give the west side rout the benefit of united effort by this community. It ha been kept back while other major work waa don. It Is now a heavy carrier of recreation traffic and It performs certain economic missions of Importance It should be given a hard surface. Klamath road enthusiast should get together now and glT It the all-out treatment. 2m I For Klumorh SEVERAL of my fellow newspaper men. writing about my forthcoming departure from Klamath, hav made reference In their papers to the things I have said and don a a so-called "booster for th Klamath country. Modesty forbids re-print-tag much that has been said: newspaper guys hav to be nice to each other because nobody else Is likely to be. However. I think I can get by with few quota tion tram th Medford Mail-Tribune on that boost ing business. Medford and Klamath relationship being what they are. Th M-T pretend, at least, to breathe a sigh of relief over th Imminent leave taking of what it describes as a regular fire-ball af seal for Klamath. It says: -Klamath's spuds are the best In the world, her highways the most direct and scenic her people th most hospitable, her hills the most beautiful and her girls the prettiest to hear Mae tell It The Medford writer. ICJ. even Implie that I might have been responsible for things that hap pened before I came here, such aa the switching of th Southern Pacific mainline to the mora fav orable rout on this side. ' NOW, there are two things I want to say about this. One to that my decision to go to South ern California was one based strictly on professional opportunities: I am Joining a grand outfit In a well town down there, hut that decant mean my affection and admiration for the Klamath country have changed one whit. Th other I to serve notice oa E.C.P. and other that The Herald and News will most certainly eontimie to ten about the beauties, wonder and advantage of th Klamath country. The editorial policy of the paper Is dedicated to the truth, and .,; i. i- . " uu is no one mans prerogative. As long the truth I told about the Kl.m.th will receive nralse for the stmIImm c i. -L ducts, the beau tie of IU hill and women, th advantage of lu transportation routes, the hos pitality of lu people. Editorial seal lor our area, I am sure, will continue unabated. Seriously, a newspaper would be remiss II it These Days SIDE GLANCES it By GEORGE K. SOKOLSKT THE more I think ol the case ol Heater Mc Cullough, the more I realise that there I a pattern In these thing. Hester McCullough. com plained to th Greenwich Community Concert as sociation that when she subscribed to their series ol concert, she did not know that they would put on shows In which there would be those who belonged to organisations that the attorney general ol the United 8ute and th house committee on un American activities had declared to be subvei slve. Particularly ah complained against Larry Adler. a harmonica player, and Paul Draper, a dancer, who work as a team and Interlaid their stuff with com ment. She kicked up a fuss and got herself Into a libel suit for $100 000 each. Their lawyer, Kenneth Bradley, formerly republican national committee man attached her home and her bank account and therefore she has been much embarrassed. The so-called conservative and capitalists an Individualists and they rarely, If ever, stand together. For Instance. I received a notice that "Plain Talk." on ol th better magazine to be published In this country, plans to suspend operations In September because It has no money. This fine publication, which has made known some of the most valuable and usually supressed data, has been edited by Isaae Don Levtne and lu angel has been Alfred J Kohlberg. who spent as much on It as possible, to give It a start. Talk But No Money THE assumption was that when the conserva tives would are what could be done by earnest and competent Journalism. It would attact circu lation, advertising, financial support, stock-ownership, something. I can say that there were lou of meetings and sou ol talk but very little money. The trouble I that these conservatives depend too much on their own bright Ideas, which often arc ol little real value even in their own Interest. They often speak a language which Is not of this genera tion and they refuse to risk stating what may put them out on a limb. They do not mind someone else doing It for them but they shy away from the kind of support which denotes solidarity among those who are like-minded. I recall once speaking to those In charge ol great corporation about certain advertising In the socialist but violently anti-communist "New Dealer." This corporation advertise In about every publica tion in the country. Most ol lu advertising is what la known as institutional or good-win advertis ing. Some ol It appears In msgstine that have little circulation and that editorially oppose every thing this corporation stands for. Yet I could not get them lnteresed In "Th New Leader." That publication did not fit into their classifications It waa like another corporation that advertised In about every kind of newspaper, but no th Negro press, because again the Negro press waa classified a dailies ol limited circulation but not as foreign language newspapers. Then these people wonder why they are accused of discrimination and why even those who believe, aa they do, In con servative, capitalist principle are amazed at the stuffiness of these people. Sponior Troubla IT I th same on the radio.' The conservative commentators nearly all hav sponsor troubles. Businessmen love what they say. but shy away from being associated with what they aay. They are willing to get the advantages of having a vole on the air that speaks what they also believe, but they fear the consequence of any responsibility for keeping that voice on radio, then they blame the network for putting on radical, whom their advertising agencies do not fear to sponsor because It looks good to be broadminded. Well. Mrs. McCullough may have a tough time of it but she can take it because she I a brave woman who love her country. But she must. In the still ol th night, ask why tn her light ah I left to shoulder It alone. And there really la no answer. Those who want to fight tor American principle must recognise that they have to stand alone, for one of our characteristic Is that each person freely functions according to his conscience, no matter who applauds or who hisses. Th light tor America will go on In spit of those who fear It Minimum Hourly Wage Of 75 Cents Seen Soon WASHTNOTfVW Rent 1 ini. Increase in th minimum wage from 0 to 75 cenu an hour was virtually assured today. The senate vsted far H yesterday: the heoae did a earlier. All that remains lew la for th twe branches t compromise ether point tn the bills each passed t revtae the 13S wage-bear law. The house bin would remove afcout 1.000.000 workers from cov erage. The senste provided exemp tions for an estimated 250,000 or so, mainly in retail stores. With the senate taking a week's rest and the house on vacation until September 21, efforts to Iron out the difference wlU be delayed. But when the senate lata Ma- sy Paaar by voice vote a bill lift big the wsge floor to 7S cents, the administration chalked Dp a major victory for part f President Tra man's program. The measure wasn't Just what democratic leaders wanted. They would hav preferred a bin broad ening the coverage of the wage hour Uw. But they gar up hopes of that in a drive to win the 75 cent minimum. Some tt.eM.eea workers are cov ered by the Uw, but Senator Pep per (D-Fla), floor manager sf the MIL aald that only a boat l,30,eo of them now arc being paid less than 75 eenU aa hour. He flaured the hiehee minimum would cost emnlovera 13AS0nonnn annually in wage payments.

Thla project la primarily designed to halt the advance ol communism In th Orient not by military mean but by politico ICO nomlc methods. The move lakes on special sig nificance I n view of t h striking com munist success es In Chin. It supporters hop that It may help prevent another global confla gration like th late war, which today marks th tenth anniversary of It Hitler tan whelping. Th energetic Benor Quirlno is letting no graas grow under his fret In pushing his far-reaching project. It first waa announced to the out side world on July 11 after he dis cussed It with President Chiang Kai-shek Jf China In Manila at a conference to which the generalis simo hsd been Invited. These two chiefs of state having agreed on th necessity of such a development. President Quirlno visited America and on August 9 made a plea tor American support in addressing the United States senate and nous of representatives. Qolrtno and Chiang ala agreed that relations between China and the Philippine ahenld be trength ened and that practical aaeaawree aheald be taken Immediately for promotion f close economic ana caltvral cooperation. The aeath Ko rean republic was expected t be an early participant, and It waa agreed that invitations far eellab ration ahoold g t Indonesia, Aus tralia, New Zealand, India and Diam. The task of pursuing the project with these nation ha been as signed to Brigadier General Carlos P. Romulo. Philippine ambassador to the United Nations. He haa Just arrived tn America, armed with a blue print of the proposed Pacific union, to carry out his difficult and delicate mission. It la Important to note that the activities are being carried out within me precinct ot the peace organisation Itself, thus emphasizing the peaceful intentions of the pact. General Romulo not only win have to sell this Idea to the other nations of southeast Asia, but It I understood that he will harmonise the plana for a Pacific union with development of the U. 8. state de partment's far eastern policy. It Is a tough assignment whatever way you look at It. And what about Japan and Ita re lations to this Pacific pact? Well, f coarse Nippon's relations to the Pacific anion will become a major lane In doe time. She will be to Important militarily, politically and economically to be left eot of th picture. However, t b a t question Isn't pressing, ainee Japan techni cally t still at war with her neign bsra. It I well thst this Issue doesn't have to be settled now, sine Ja pan's war victims still are bitter. Th Philippines, for example, not only deported all Japa at the end of the fighting but passed a uw forbidding Japanese for all time to enter the Philippines. That law still sUnds, and It win take much to change It so long as the terrors of the Jap Invasion still are burning In the memories of the public. Many Filipino even are bit terly opposed to reopening any traae relations with Japan, President Quirlno, however, hai been viewing the situation broad mlndedly, although his personal grievance against the Japs is vast. His wife and three children were killed during the closing days of the war when the Invaders went wild and killed Indiscriminately, The president haa been renewing operations gradually, on the basis that they are legitimate tine they benefit the Philippine. And me an ticipates that time will heal a lot of wetinda. In any event, the Japanese ques tion isn't pressing at thla Juncture.

Sept I V-Sen. a tors of both parties plugged today for passage of a compromise farm program, apparently with Presi dent Truman's backing. The meaaare. written by Senator Anderson (D-NMl. waa sent t the senate for aeflon yesterday soon after democratic firs leaders re tarned from a visit to the White Hoase. Truman waa asked at a news con ference today Just what he told th farm conferees yesterday that got such fast action from th senate agriculture committee. He aald It wasn't anything he told them that when they aat down to gether to talk things over they found that they wer no as far apart as they thought they wer. It probably will be two weeks ar laager befar th senate eaa act the bill beraaae eg other pending Then th measure must go hack to the house, which has passed far different bllL It voted an ex tension through next year of the high-level wartime price prop now tn effect.

Millions of people heard broad cast ol th fateful speech to the relchslag In which Hitler told the German people their troops had marched I n I Poland. It gave a shiv ery feeling.
