WYNNE Since the defeat of the school budgets on Monday, May 5, a number of "Letters To The Edi tor" have been flooding into the office. It is an appropriate time to re state the policies that this news paper has in regard to these "Let ters To The Editor." We are very glad to receive them from any person who has a constructive opinion to advance to the public, but we must of neces sity require that any "letters" be signed with name and address. Our policy does not permit us to print a letter that is signed by either a fictitious person, or simply anonymous. We have received a number of letters containing both praise and criticism, for instance, for the school budgets, but have been un able to print some of them be cause they were anonymous. The Herald and News remains one of the few newspapers in the nation where editorials are writ ten and signed with the names of those who wrote them. The use of the proverbial editorial "we" has been replaced with the pro noun "I." This makes the editorial more meaningful to the readers, and gives them a better opportunity to evaluate their worth. We, therefore, have set up a policy of requiring the same cour tesy from our readers, that of asking them to put their name and address on any "Letters To The. Editor" which they wish printed. Again, on behalf of the news paper, may I express my thanks to those of you who do take your time to submit a letter for publi cation. We appreciate having them, and I know the reader also appreciates the opportunity to share your views with you, and either agree or disagree with your viewpoint. Keep them coming, but put yojir name and address on them please. own impatience and irritability. . if he can spare a listening ear to the other fellow well, he can't help but find himself easier to live with." Grant just returned this week from England where he costarred with Ingrid Bergman in "Indis creet," a romantic comedy. It is the first time they have teamed together since they made "Notor ious a number of years ago. Grant, born Archibald Alexan der Leach, ran away from home at 13 to become a stilt walker with an acrobatic troupe. He served time as a carnival barker before he graduated to Broadway and Hollywood stardom. One who has enjoyed the sun light of international popularity for so long might be tempted to pick up the chips and call it quits while he was still ahead. But Grant still wants to go on making pictures, he said, "until I'm dead or longer. "I did quit once for 18 months I can't say I was bored. I never have been. But I just wasn't as interested in life. "I learned that you appreciate work most while you're at leas- ure, and leisure while you're at work. It's like heing married or single. You can't be both at the same time." What makes for success or fail ure in living? Many people think luck is the decisive factor. Grant emphatically doesn't. "Everyone has constant choices to make all day long. We put our selves where we are by the choices we make. "I know I'm sticking my neck out in saying this, and the ill- fortuned won't agree with me. But I do believe people can do practically anything they set out io do if they apply them selves diligently, and learn. Few people recognize opportunity be cause it comes disguised as hard work and application." Grant paused, and smiled. "Well," he said, "I never know what's going to come out my mouth until I say it." Tribute To Mother Klamath Agency (To the Editor) A state of happy confusion reigned at our house this morning. It is Mothers Day, a friend and I are doing our wives the dubious honor of making 'breakfast for them. The potatoes were burned and the toast was hard, but they said everything was fine and that they enjoyed it. Wives and moth ers are pretty wonderful people. Webster's definition of mother is the "female parent." I believe that is the most flagrant understate ment in' the dictionary. Mothers are all things to all men. It mother that guides little minds into the right channels so that someday they will be big, con structive minds. It is mother who bandages the cut finger or the skinned knee. It is mother who feels a great deal of pride, and a little loneliness when Johnny or Jane goes off to the first day of school. Mother always has a nest egg tucked away in the sugar bowl and saves the day when the old car breaks down, or you need ed a new dress for the dance. It is mother who looks on with mixture of pride and trepidation as Johnny, who grew up so quickly, marches off to war. Despite all these wonderful things that mother does, and is, there are mothers who are alone and very lonely on Mothers Day. Sometimes sons and daughters become so involved in their strug gle for success, building a bigger house or buying a bigger car than the neighbor, that they forget the little lady who gave them the start in the world.

I den I Ajjy By HAL BOYLE" NEW YORK ifl - Cary Grant picks the age of 35 as the break even point in life. After that, ho sayo, things should get better if they ate ever going to. "Until 35 a man is often a self- centered Idiot." the handsome screen actor remarked, "but then he should begin to make more sense. "I know I was impossible be fore 35. I m hardly possible now I may be more of a bore, but I feel I'm less of a boor. I'm little less self-concerned.

As to appearing before the com mittee, I do not wish to be placed in a position of being brain-washed or openly hissed for my views on this subject as were some oth er citizens at the Board No. 1 meeting. If you wish to verify my remarks, my office is at 1627 Washburn Way and I will be happy to receive you individually or as a board. Oh yes, I voted against the budget and will continue to do so until the administration gets their sights on a more realistic basis. Fred Hoagland DiPprvNMioiH Story Klamath Falls (To the Editorl- Here is a little story i would like to toll you. It is a little bit comi cal, but yet, very, very sad. I thought maybe you would like to pass it on. This is the story: A man lived by the side of the rojid . . . and sold hot dogs. He (had no radio. He had trouble with his eyes, so he had no newspaper. But he sold good hot dogs. He put up a sign on the high way, telling bow good they were. He stood by the side of the read and cried! "Buy a hot dog mister." And people bought. He increased his meat and bun orders, and he bought a bigger stole to take tart of his trade. He got his son home from college io hojp hfln. But then siniielhing hapu.ni'd. His soil ald: "Fathio;. haven't you born listeofila: to the radio? 'here's a big depression on. The international situation is terrible, ijjul the domestic situation is even u'drse." thereupon his father tniiught: "Well, my son has hcen to col lege, so he outSil to know. He lietens to the radio nd reads the painrs,' so . . . the father cut down his buioordcr, took down his ifWrtising signs, and no longer bShered to fcU'ott on the highway to sell hot rie2. His Bot dog sales fell almost overnigla. "You we right, son." the fath- O said to the boy. "We are cer livt'nly in the middle of a great deprcw-ion. Ken Bailey, .3 ncoln Street To Iludget Hoard Editor's Note The following is a copy of a letter sent to the KUHS Budget Board and board members and publication request ed of the Herald and News. Klamath Falls (To the Editor) lhere seems to he two main trains of thought on voting down the budget: Tax revolt and dis satisfaction with the administra tion. Yes, there is a revolt against increasing taxes and if you could or would rculra the number of timber and railroad workers that were compelled to live oh state unemployment this past winter. who are home owners struggling to hold onto their homes. This same problem confronts those whd have rental properties. They can not just raise their rents to off set these increases each year Strange as it may seem, supply and demand still controls our bas ic economy. I feel that the administration hat "made a very weak, it any, effort to encourage economy in tin- operation. Supervisory work could be consolidated. So could secretarial work be pooled to a better, advantage. Cost figures could he kept on the buset, so that the board Would have a guide to go hy at the time of purcbasiog new equipment. Does the system really need two buses this year? Have department heads seen encouraged to save on theMr budgms? I know cases where they have scrambled to spend same. The salary edjustments made in the hcainning brackets were gid. but I can't say as much for the raises granted in the top brackets. They have many fringe considerations along with job se curity, retiremeit and many oth o benefits. They undoubtedly re alized when they chose this field that all of these benefits would be in lieu of a large fat salary with a continuing increase each year. When security is the mam desired benefit and there is no unemployment hazard involved. lleKervatioii.s Klamath Agency (To the Editor) It is our understanding that what with all the trouble we are having with foreign countries that the United States should send im migrants to these various coun tries under a colonization pro gram. After a few years, it may be possible to set up several res ervations for these non-aborigines with startling effect. This could easily be accom plished by refusing all aid until they complied and moved from their homes o these specially des ignated areas to live. For lack of better names we could call these the British Reservation, Russian Reservation, Iranian Reservation Israclian Reservation, etc, . . , We understand the labor problem isn't too large since the demand far overshadows the supply. There probably should be spe cial provisions in the treaties we sign that when and if any one reservation hits pay dirt, like cre ating a better mousetrap whereby all the natives of that reservation receive an annual income, we can terminate them and sell the mousetrap Inventory for them. We also must make sure that when we sell these mousetraps to indi viduals that we stipulate in the sale that these mousetraps are to be used only Tuesday afternoon from 2 p.m. DT to 6 p.m. DT. That way the supply of mouse traps will last indefinitely, and the economy of the colonized area would not be hurt by these saes of the various reservations. And, ol coufse, if individual buyers can not be found, the colonies can buy the mousetraps (at a reduced rate, of course), thereby providing a source of income to the colonial government.
