He commented that it was the first full evening he'd had free to do this, and that he listened to all the Republican governors, to Ike, to Steven son, to Truman and to Dick Nixon. Anyone who has the time can spend it from now to next Tuesday reading and listening to politics. You can get an eyeful and an earful. It will be entertaining but what dif ference will it make? Essentially, here's the only thing that matters in the national election: It's time for a change. Ike, if elected, is bound to bring a change; he couldn't do anything else. Stevenson, if elected, could not bring a change if he wanted to, which he has said he doesn't Part of our troubles come from across the seas. From Ike's performances as supreme allied commander and head of NATO (tough international politics) we'd feel better with him at the helm than with Stevenson, who has endorsed and would inherit the Truman-Acheson sort of doings. It's as simple as that, and we DO need a change. HAL BOYLE MADRID l Few American mothers want their sons to grow up to be prize lighters. But in Spain many mothers- particularly among the poor loudly hope their utile mucnacnos end up in the bull ring. That Is one of the gieat dreams of Spanish 'poor children., The dream is even stronger in recent years than in the past as the "take-home pay" of the mata dor has soared tremendously. A doren years or so ago the leading- bull staboer might get oniy a thousand doUars for ao engage ment which sounds like nice mon ey, but matadors, like brock layers, don't work the year around. Today the fast man with the sword can pick up six thousand dollars or more for show, and even that fee has been doubled. Visions of such fat fees in youth ful beads have created a new trif le hazard in the cities here. Am bitious young boys practice the bull fighter's art by dodging among passing taxis and cars. There are three schools In Spain which for a total fee of a hundred pesetas about $2.50 will cive a ztudent a certificate entitling him to fight In any bull ring in this country. ... But the problem of these em bryo fighters then is to find a pro moter wining to gamoie a good bull on him. It tent Just matter of killing the bull a visiting Iowa farmer znight do that with a baseball bat. The bull must be skewered in a way to please the crowds. To the fens bull fighting is more an art form, like painting or sculpturing death, than It Is a science. 7 bey like best the battle be tween a brave man who takes chances and the bull which attacks incessantly until, after receiving the aeadly sword shaft, he turns his back to the arcana wall, kneels and dies. It also has to be fast, colorful and neat. The crowd whistles a ragged or cowardly performance on the part of either man or bull the Spanish equivalent of the Bronx cheer. "You have to see at least a hun dred bull fights before you even begin to understand what It's all I HST Train In Taft Country; Says No Deal With Adlai ABOARD TRUMAN TRAIN Wl President Truman took his cam paign special straight Into the heart of the Taft country today. He was a little tired, a little hoarse after five weeks of stump ing the nation for Adlal Stevenson. But he had plenty of ammunition stored up for Ohio home stale of his favorite political enemy. Re publican 6en. Robert A. Taft. Truman established something of a record last night. He got through a whole half-hour speech, to a wildly applauding but less than capacity audience in Detroit, with out so much as mentioning Taft by name. The President tucked to, toward the end of his address, a hands olf declaration. He said the next Democratic administration. If the voters elect one next Tuesday, wont be beholden to the men or the policies of Truman's own Fair Deal. PRE-CHRISTMAS SPECIAL 8x10 PORTRAIT Reej.

Promising kids are then allowed to test the bravery of female calves, for Spanish ranchers have a theory that cowardly female calves later will deliver cowardly Culls. If the lady calf won't keep charg ing at the boy. she is slaughtered. Boys graduate from female calvts to young bulls and they may become full - fledged mata dors at 17 u they show enough sain. 11 Is a short career. Mast mata dors are through between 25 and 30. For most of them, their dreams of wealth never come true. only a doun or so reach the financial top where they can af ford to pay 1250 or so for their costumes. Poor ones have to rent their bull rincr working clothe But in terms of death, the trade oi the matador is perhaps less risky than prize fighting In Ameri ca. No matador has been killed in Spain aince 147. when the great Manoiete siew ine null that, dying. turned and gored him fatally. "Gov. Stevenson," the President said crisply, "has made no com mltments whatsoever to me, and I have not asked for any. You can be sure that. In the presidency, his men and his Ideas will be his own." Police and fire officials agreed that there were about 2,000 vacant seats in the Michigan State Fair Coliseum, which seats 8.200. when Truman replied to OOP charges that Stevenson would only con tinue present administration poli cies.

Wright Box 26a WOMEN'S LEAGUE' ' KLAMATH FALLS As a newly naturalized American cltlsen. I was the guest of the League of Worn, en Voters, at a recent meeting id luncheon. I must say. I was v-ry much impressed by this organiza tion, being non partisan, yet to help citizens understand what they are voting for, also year after fear keep up with studies oi education child welfare, foreign policies; and so many other subjects that every mother benefits by. - The league is open to all inter ested women, citizens of voting age are eligible. I had first learned, of this organ ization from our citizenship teach er; Mrs. Donald Ross when she described the purpose of this group, which Is primarily to encourage citizens participation In govern ment I knew I would like to work In it. Election time Is near. What a wonderful privilege it Is to take part in the government of this country. Ceclle Otto 43t Bisbee SCHOOL REORGANIZATION KLAMATH FALLS A recent ar tide In the Herald and News states that the measure No. 330 makes reorganization possible. It seeks to make reorganization compulsory. Few districts would care to suffer the loss of state, funds which might follow failure to comply, nor can many districts stand the impact of a quarter million dollars to be spent by the state to force reor ganization In the desired state pat tern. The measure In question has lit tle to justify a lavorable vote. School districts are rapidly being consolidated, voluntarily, and in a democratic manner. Measure No. 320 represents "democracy In a hurry." Whether desired by the people of a district, or not, com liance must be forced. The so-called Holy Report, which this measure seeks to Implement, finds in Its own survey as follows: achievement tests do not give any clear cut evidence of the superior ity of one type of District over those of another. The report also shows that Oregon's school chil dren rate wei: educationally with those of neighboring states, further It finds that Oregon parents are In general pleased with the schools. Then why all this fuss and hur ry? In 1M1 the state of Washing.. ton enacted an almost Identical law. Following wide spread dissat isfaction. It was repealed In 194a. in general the rural sections as represented by farm organizations are not In favor of the measure. Its support Is largely by the cities, superintendents of large districts. and the propaganda organizations - AHD OREGON AND.NKWS. KLAMATH FALLS. centered in the urban areas. The measure could, and prob ably would, detrimentally allect the operation of county school units such as that In K'amalh County. The Initial cost oi the Holy Re port, plus the price tag of 360,000 for each of the next three years would entail an expenditure of $330. 000. This merely for cost of re organizing. But what does a quar ter million amount to, when they play with stale money. Local committees formulate plans concerning reorganization In each county,- but such plans must al ways follow sUte criteria ana the state reorganization commissioner may veto any pluns, and require new and difterent plans, until he is satisfied. Tills same commission er must be selected from recom mendations of the state superinten dent, who is to be appointed by the Slate Board of Education. which board In turn Is appointed by the governor. And all this la to be done, so the proponents say, in order to foster local control. and avoid state dominance of the schools. It doesn't look reasonable, does it?. If we really favor local control, and wish to halt this constant trend to stale control oi schools, then vole No. 331 X NO. Fred Peterson LICjlOR KLAMATH FALLS I have no confidence In propaganda that la prepared either by Communists or by the liquor Interests. Th- proposed amendment pre pared by the Portland Bartenders Union to sell liquor by the glass U dangerous and should be voted down. Making II a constitutional amend ment takes from the legislature the power to amend -or to regulate the tralfic. The present liquor law was enact ed to do away with the sale of liquor by the glass and now the bartenders propose that same board control the sale of liquor by the glass, and they specify that the law "Shall be construed lib erally." Should this measure become a law and the voters reallre the Jok ers In It, it will be necessary for steps to be taken to repeal it It through the Initiative and for more signers will have to have their names on the petition than if the law were enacted by the legislature. The bill is intended to make more Jobs for bartenders. Bars can be put In grocery stores and restaurants and greatly Increase the outlets for the sale of the stuff. No limit Is placed on the number of glasses a purchaser can drink. California Bells 30 per cent more liquor per capita hn Oregon. Ontario, Canada, notes an In crease of 146 per cent since sale by the glass has been adopted. I do not think the majority of the voters In Oregon want our gro ceries chain atores perhaps - turned Into saloons where children can see drinking going on. Let us hit this measure hard by voting no on- the bartenders bill. F. L. Chltwood. SOMETHING FOR NOTHING! ?,cir milk at or a fact?
