A national week In which to clear up all thesi petty little dlf Xerences among the population. 1 Under this system during the .week, which we might refer to as "Shut up or shoot up week" 01 . some such title, vou could go call ing on your enemies and take along your U gauge single barreled walk ing slick. Action, not talk, would be the order of the day. The talkers could stay behind locked doors for a week. Which would make lor a nice quiet world for a Utile while. And, with luck, we could probably nail a few of 'em. But I suppose we'll never get around to 11. International ware are so much more popular than ' mere national squabbles. And since the exercise 0! common sense seems to have gone out with the buggy whip and the bustle we can forget everything but betting on the winner in the argument. It makes for good business for the lawyers anyway. Word from ducks unlimited came In this morning with the cheering news thst the northern flight ol mallards has Just gotten under way and we can expect to see some of the birds showing up In this area soon. From local observation we HAL EPA, Belgium Ifl When you return In peacetime to a place you knew' 10 years, before In war, there la often a big emotional letdown. The small landmarks you thought you'd never forget can no longer be found. The landscape looks different. The people seem Afferent, too. They often do not want to be reminded of the past, arl you have an uneasy feeling of being lost In time. You are a atranger to the quiet present, a phantom echo from a noisy pre vious period better forgotten. But It wasn't that way . at all coming back for a luncheon at the Hotel Du Portugal here, which 10 years ago was home to some 40 or to war correspondents of the American 1st Army. Mrs. Maria Thonart, widowed owner of the hotel and her son, Robert, gave me a warm welcome. So did Alice, the chambermaid, whose boast for 25 years has been she never lost a shirt. "Things have Improved and now the world has come again to us," said Mrs. Thonart. "Life has re sumed. We are normal again." fepa, now bank to Its prewar population of 9.000, Is one of Eu ropes most famous watering places. Members of nobility, in cluding Peter the Great and Charles II of England, over the centuries came here to enjoy Its balh and mineral springs. It was from here that the Kaiser Wllhelm fled to Doom at the end of the First World War. And when the American 1st Army came here In September 1H4 It promptly moved Into the old German headquarters In the Hotel Britannlque. The correspon dents then took over the Hotel Du Portugal and gny and sad times w had there. It Is the best re membered press center of the European campaign. The westher was grim: the bat tles were grimmer. Several cor respondents were killed in action during our stay here several wounded. The hardships were many, but.il was a time of tre mendous vitality The possibility that a sudden break might lead lo a quick end to Ihe war gave each dally trip to the front an air of expectancy.

I suppose this Is the only place where you will hear normal people grousing about the sunny weather and loudly proclaiming their dis appointment at not getting any "decent" weather over the week end. , When science finally gets every thing perfected and we can at last control the w eather I suppose there will be another item added to the duck hunter's list of supplies.

BOYLE greatest campaigns of the winter were fought out in "Chambre Six" or at least begun there cam paigns Adolph Hitler never even heard of. Mrs. Thonart, recalling the var led history of "Chambre Sl" then invited me to go up to the second floor for a look at it. I opened the door, and a silence loud with the echoes of a vanished time flooded over me. The red decor of the room had been re tained, but a bathroom had been added, culling the chamber almost In half. There was 110 Nnzl flag on Iho wall, although I looked half expecting it would be there. When I came back down Ihe stairs. Mrs. Thonart looked un with a gentle smile, and said: "Chambre Six It Is different?" "Yes, It is different." She mentioned some of the ner- semantics at our press center. In cluding Marlene Dietrich and Ernest Hemingway. OI the dead we did -not speak aloud, nor had we need to. . .but suddenly, cauaht by her own memories, Mis. Thon art began to weep. When It was time lo go, she poured us an aperitif, and said tney were the best davs of a bad time." Robert, said sompthinir else that added a welcome foot note to the wartime history of "Chambre Six" and the responsi bility shown by footloose gentle men of the press. "The correspondents were here for months," he said, "and during that stay only one man loft without paying his bill."

Yesterday I presented some of the thoughts expressed on Farmer Sportsmen relations by Nash Buck ingham, Vice President of the Out door Writers Association who halls from Memphis, Tennessee. Nash Buckingham has been one of the most ardent fighters lor the pres ervation of waterfowl in the area along the Mississippi River and his sharp pen has not exactly en deared, him with eiMter certain groups of so - called sportsmen or with a number of leaders in the field of wildlife management for Nash does not shrink from speak ing straight out what he think? about the conduct of individuals. It's a typical Buckingham ex pression In speaking of the wild life problem from the sportsman's angle to say: "We've kept the problem strictly among our quar relsome selves conservationally It has been a strictly, narrow -minded conservatlonal hassel and t;pical of the breed. Conservation! never has had the brains to peddle i the problem's wares in the right j market. That's all. They've been so busy arguing their own selfish objectives and claims that they've missed the Congressional boat all too many times." My! My! But Nash is really so Ing to call down the wrath of the Gods upon his head for treating a lot of Inflated egos with such cal lousness! Nash goes on to ask a question: 'Has Conservation, so - called, or the state folks ever knocked on the Poultry Breeder's Association doors, or the many and many 4-H outfit, or sought direct contacts to establish wildlife as a definite loan able, harvestable crop? "It sure hasn't. 'It still jttnnritnir thi with chip on its shoulder, in between Ihe Farmers and the Gun Goons, that's all. "We charge a greens - fee of up- keep of public golf courses. We are trying to do the same for some state public shooting grounds, and worthily, too.

In either direct market sales direct for food, or by fees to the farmer for coming on his land to hunt. And the next great step after that is to make "Posted Signs" really mean something, besides ISS&Z misunderstood tnnii- in witrilifn matters today is 'Game and !'.-, Legal Status.' "If it hadn't been for the Pitt man Robertson Act, the chances are we wouldn't be shooting either waterfowl or upland game today But, If under today's pressures it Is expected that Plttman Robertson can repopulate the land with game birds, we are leaning on a weaic straw. Let's say, for instance that a given state s share of the PR funds, is S250.0O0.

Mi gratory and otherwise, cur sole de vise right now is 'How To Kill It.' Many reapers are called, but tew keepers a,re chosen. "The restoration of wildlife as a national, workable thtme Is sim ply not in the Congressional sights. It's Just a dog-fight, a snarling mess, in the alley, between the exploiters of wildlife and us well meaning, but near helpless Con servationists. We think we are get ting somewhere, but we ain't. We win a draw now and then and do a lot of self-backslapplnz and Halle lujahs. Our state game regimes, some of them, do good jobs of it with what they've got to do It on, which is darn little. "To succeed in anything, you've got to make a business of it. Afield, Americans have made a busine.-s of law evasion, corrupt practices sportingly, and that crack is sup ported by Mr. J. Edsar Hoover. Enforcement of Federal Law in wildfowling is a Jest. The only way you'll even get more game birds back in America Is to make a busi ness ot It, and it'll take Congress to do that. And If this be wildlife 91' sporting treason, make the most of it.

Stores are reporting better traffic and higher salea volume. It's the usual fall pickup, but It makes for happier reading be cause a year ago the trend was the other way. The rush of trading on the stock exchanges has been variously de scribed as psychological reaction, reaction to the election results and as the belief that a new and sound ly based peacetime prosperity is coming up. The news today from the indus trial centers, while just as cheer ful, is more seasonal and mod erate. . Steel output is now at the highest rate of the year, and no longer U depressingly lower than a year ago. The nation's mills expect to turn out 1,842,000 tons this week. A year ago the output was 2,081, 000 tons. Steel men say their new wonders are coming from wide segments of industry although their biggest pickup is, as expected, from th? auto makers. Factory job totals are rising, al so mainly thanks to the auto in dustry and to the shops that turn out parts and supplies for the car makers. The rush lo turn out 1955 mod els is under way at most auto plants apd production this month and next should be at a nigh rate Some car makers are talking about record outout and sales next year. If the public takes to the new models as the producers hope, the flow of dollars in the auto centers will cheer many a merchant.

Telling The Editor SHORT CHECK I wish to call to the attention of 4-H club families, leauers, Rotar iuns and others interested in the character development of our youth, the following: Five sheep club members from four sheep clubs sold their lat lambs in a pen at the tall fair. All were elated to get a bid of 15 cents. (That is the Sid they be lieved they had. I Subsequent Investigation leads me to believe they were correct. Please note. then, the excerpts from two letters from the 4-H of fice, September 17, 1951.

This is an addi tional payment to you on your wile at the recent auction sale. This is an addition of 10 cents per PAs"near as could be determined the sale price was 75 cents per pound." Why, if, as near as could be de termined the sale price was 7j cents, did the 4-H office accept or send less? And why did it take so much time and effort to get the amount apparently due all the time? ' , . , I made trips to the office, phoned and wrote and I know that some of the other families brought th!s to the attention of the 4-H office. .. , It seems the buyer paid only 68 cents.

Eds Note: Apparently there was some misunderstanding during the heat of the bidding, which has now been rectified. UNFAIR PRACTICE ' ( Tlie nersonnel out at the Bu reau of Reclamation are mostly likeable fellows and are probably hitittnnt in their fields, but they are being unfair to the Klamath Ba sin residents. The bureau will permit veterans of the second world war but one bid on the valuable lease land in the Tulelake sump area, thus pry ing each last cent from the boys that fought to defend this soil. If this money was returned to mir Klamath Protect for construc tion charges and improvements of the Basin, fine, but, no, It goes to Denver, thence to Washington and never returns In any lorm of re imbursement. These neonle are undoubtedly making a great name for them selves In Washington and gaining points for their promotion by draining the money from the Klamath Basin residents to the tune of about $150,000 per year more than necessary. I believe the veterans, the busl- neasmen and residents of the ! lauo. as m pievious years.
