BILLBOARD
By BILL JENKINS
With all this furore going around
- about McCarthy and whether or
not he should bo slapped on the
wrist or not we are reminded of
a suggestion which we made some
time ago.
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

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."

ALONG NATURE'S TRAIL
by KEN McLEOD .
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.

"The restoration of wildlife as a

It's Just a dog-fight, a snarling
mess, in the alley, between the
exploiters of wildlife and us well

win a draw now and then and do a
lot of self-backslapplnz and Halle

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

Americans have made a busine.-s

you'll even get more game birds

to do that. And If this be wildlife

of it.

NEW YORK WV-Happy talk
comes today from the centers ot
1 industry as well as from the ua-
Factories, and mills are getting
more orders, turning out more
orders, turning out more goods,
rehiring1 more workers. 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.
Store sales are already making
seasonal gains in many parts of
the country. New York City depart-

I wish to call to the attention of

character development of our

four sheep clubs sold their lat
lambs in a pen at the tall fair. All

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.
Dear 4-H Livestock Club Member:
I am enclosing the check lor
your livestock sold .at the 1M
Klamath Junior Livestock auction.
Please cash as soon as possible.
Sale price $65, "a per cent deduc
tion. 33 cents balance by check

Dear '4-H Club Member:
I am enclosing a check in the
amount of 10 from the Junior
Livestock show. 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. "Again, why?
Perhaps there is a reasonable
explanation for all this. If so 1

to this column so that all may

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.

Friday.
Investigators found the body of
blond Gregory Treguboff covered
from head to foot with bruises
when they answered a call at a
neat, suburban borne.
His mother. Ma none Treguboff,
27, appeared to be in shock and
was in bed. She was not ques

"My wife beat up the boy. I
guess a little bit too hard. He
seemed all right at first. Then all
of a sudden he went into convul

Louie Treguboff, 33, told officers.'
"She a been nervous all day,"
be added. "She's been nervous
quite a bit lately."
Capt. D. L. McOovney of the
sheriff's identification bureau said
Ihe boy's bruises were "the worst
I've ever seen."
Treguboff said his wife could not
remember Just what happened. He
told deputies that Mrs. Treguboff
could remember that while she was
annoyed with her son because of
his refusal to stay in his crib
Gregory was saving:
"Mommy, I love you."
