The number Retting assistance in April has been limited, and increasing; spring labor demand is expected to cut the fig ure to zero within the next few days. For several years there have been short summer periods when the bureau had no employables on the assistance list, but the time has come earlier than usual this year and signs indicate it will last longer. This situation reflects the trend toward employment of all who are willing and able to work in this district, and that in turn reflects the general condition in the west, if not in the country as a whole. The relief bureau is receiving fewer applications for help from transient families. This is probably because many of these people are attracted to communities where there are defense industries, and others are finding work nearer their homes. The state employment offices here report a particularly strong demand for skilled labor, and it is a known fact that many skilled workers have left this district for work in defense industry. Farm labor demand, also, is strong, and it appears at this time there may be a shortage of farm help before the busy agricultural season is over. It is plain from this news that the time is at hand for reduction of the drain upon the public for relief assistance, and for all able-bodied men to get to work. The costs of operating defense industries are so enormous, and the prospects for heavy taxation for this purpose so certain, that there can be no justification for continued heavy ex penditures to take care of those who do not take care of themselves. The stepped-up industrial program, stemming for the most part from government outlay, should largely solve the relief problem that has figured so heavily in public budgets for nearly a decade. The burdened tax payer deserves this comparatively small offset. Boys Club Open House AN example of outstanding community effort in behalf of its youth is the Boys club, which occupied its new quarters on Klamath avenue The Boys club was established in April, 1940, after years of idle talk here of where adolescent boys could find wholesome recreation and companionship. Numerous Klamath business houses and individuals gave their support to the project and brought it at last into reality under the leadership of Gerald Murray, then city recreation officer. His successor, David Bridge, is carrying on, and again the club has found widespread support among public-spirited citizens. ' The new location on Klamath avenue is a vast im provement over the old quarters in the basement at Fifth and Main streets. It is roomy, light, newly-decorated and remodeled. It offers increased opportunity for real service. This week the Boys club is going to have an open house. It is set for Thursday night Klamath people should turn out in large numbers to visit the Boys club and learn what is being done through this fine establishment in behalf of the city's youngsters. Gritting Teeth Helps Ease Pain, Says Clinic Report By HOWARD W. BLAKESLEE NEW YORK, April 28 (The Special Newi Service) Clench ing the fiats, wringing the hands or gritting teeth in pain are not signs of nerves, but actual protection against the hurt. Studies of pain, showing this to be true and measuring Just about how much pain is re duced, have been completed at the New York hospital Cornell medical center here. They are reported in the Journal of Clin ical investigation by J. D. Hardy, H. Coodell and H. G. Wolff. The trio tried experiments In pain on themselves. They are respectively a thickset man, a tall, well-developed woman and a tall man that Is, a fair av erage of humans. Foreheads were blackened with India ink and a heat ray turned on the black area un til pain was just felt. The in tensity of heat sufficient to cause pain, or the pain thresh old, was found to be constant from day to day under normal circumstances, and approximate ly the same in all individuals. This threshold of feeling pain could be raised In various ways. Gripping a metal bar tightly as possible raised It by 7 to IS per cent. This was equivalent to reducing the sensation by that amount. Binding the head firmly with a bandage was worth 4 to 6 per cent pain reduction. Pain In another part of the body al so reduced the hurt. If this other pain was intense, the fore head pain could get as much s 35 per cent greater before It was felt An extremely loud nolle raised the pain perception by 14 to 82 per cent. That Is, the pain was felt less easily. The I . Editor Mining Editor except Monday by The Klamath Esplanade and Pint (trwta, Klaia- nationally by San Francisco, New York, Detroit, Portland, Chicago.

Hitler Conquers TV7ASHINGTON, April 28 On the surface there Is a dis crepancy between what this government is doing and what it it saying. State Secretary Hull demand ed action to assure the arrival of American cargoes in Britain. Navy Secretary Knox said the same thing, only stronger, add ing: "This Is our fight," and implying that we should be In it. Even Mr. Roosevelt said, we are going to fight for the. demo cratic processes. But when the action was taken none of these suggestions was fulfilled on the surface. Quite the opposite, Mr. Roose velt only extended "the Atlantic patrols to protect the western hemisphere," as he explained it The area limits ot the expansion were not given, but as Mr. Roosevelt further explained them, they had nothing to do with convoying, and were not even directly Joined with aid to England. The deeper you go below this surface, however, the discrep ancy narrows sharply. One Inch below, officials are saying off the record the ex pansion of patrols is part of a modern substitute for convoy ing. The old system has been found obsolete. The British have been meet ing with our officials here late ly, particularly our naval ex perts, and have worked out a new shipping scheme. London is going to follow the advice and experience of our navy, convert ing several fast merchantmen into auxiliary aircraft carriers by construction of landing decks. Enough planes will be carried to fight German bombers on the convoy spot At least one such ship will accompany convoys along with a surface destroyer and a courvette. And as has already been an nounced, fast merchant ships will go across singly, slower vessels being grouped according to speed in convoys. This should Rosalind , RUSSELL Jicntu Brion AHERNE .

As Interpreted sub - officially here, American fighting ships would scout the seven seas for "threats against this hemi sphere." Wherever an axis ves sel is sighted, whether beaded toward American or not, they will inform the British as well as Mr. Roosevelt. In this semi-official interpre tation, Mr. Roosevelt is setting up a world spotting system, not only to defend this hemisphere but to help the British get our goods across, and in ultimate purpose to defeat the axis. STRONGER ACTION ' Deeper down in authentic private official comment there is reason to believe the action reaches even further to the ex treme to which Mr. Knox point ed, namely that we are ready to fight The orders to our scouting patrols have not been divulged, but one report from an official quarter suggests their behavoir Is to be much stronger than merely reporting any time they see an axis vessel. There is rea son to believe they may if occasion demands intervene I uicmseives oeiween any spoiiea axis ships and any British mer chant ship carrying our goods ! to Britain; they will not fire first, but may fire back if at tacked. At this point the discrepancy vanishes. What Mr. Roosevelt has done, becomes precisely what Messrs. Knox and Hull recommended in their speeches (which FDR read before they were delivered). If this interpretation is veri fied by future developments on the high seas, the expansion of the sea patrol really consti tutes a dare to Germany to fire the first shot. MILDER TERMS Executive mirrors here reflect the grimness of this unofficial interpretations, but most ad ministration congressional lead ers prefer the milder official possibilities. Even those senate1 democratic leaders who are op- j posea 10 going to war nave Deen somewhat placated by what they have heard in councils as to Mr Roosevelt's new determination to refrain from actual convoy ing or direct Involvement in the ! conflict.

Camp Fire Girls Mark Nature Trail At Moore Park Klamath Falls Camp Fire Girls have marked about 23 plants and trees along the nature trail In Moore park recently, it was an nounced Saturday. The trail, which starts at the right of the animal pens and winds around the hill below the view point, is being posted with labels for various points of in terest and new signs will be added as new plants appear, ac cording to the nature club of the organization. is common that Mr. Roosevelt is really working their way and. therefore, should not be har assed or questioned too much on detail. The hemisphere de fense motif suits them. I "owPUyia,- 1 1 StejMM tM LSSl LdP - -mr fl af ana . m H X -sw r ! BS1 I j g VTjifl-V , f ' !

April 28 ) The Evening Outlook Mid Saturday that "from all available information" it appears impossible for the giant Douglas B-19 which the company says is the largest airplane ever built to Uke oft on a test flight be fore July. Earlier Information had Indic ated the test might be made early next month. The newspaper reports that the craft's 82 tons Is too heavy for the four-Inch, 3.000-foot asphalt runway and that a con crete runway 200 feet wide and 4.000 feet long, varying In depth from six to nine Inches, must be poured before the takeoff. The pouring Is estimated to re quire 48 days, with another SO days for curing. The plane, the paper says, was moved 17S feet a few days ago and so badly cracked the asphalt that 15 tons of paving material was required to fill the ruts. The craft's main landing wheels are 98 Inches In diameter, the balan cing nose wheel 54 Inches. The B-19 has a 212-foot wingspread and Is designed to fly distances equivalent to crossing the Atlan tic and return. Douglas officials had no com ment.
