Seafon Will Ask Delay in Sale of Klamath Timber Washington U.R) Secre tary of Interior Fred A. Seaton said today he would ask Con gress to postpone sale of tribal timberlands on the Klamath In dian reservation in Oregon. Seaton said he would ask for an amendment to the Klamath termination act of 1954 to spread the timber sales over a four-year period. This would avoid de pressing the market, he said. The amendment also would provide for federal rather than private payment of the termination pro gram cost. The Klamath termination act provides for removal of fede.al trusteeship over the property and affairs of the Klamath tribe and its members by August, 1958. It also gives individual mem bers the option of withdrawing their proportionate share of the tribal assets or remaining in the tribe and sharing in the pro ceeds of continued forest man agement. An appraisal of the tribal for est now is in progress and is scheduled for completion in the next few months. Once it has been completed and approved by the Interior department, sales of the tribal forest lands to com pensate withdrawing members might start soon thereafter un der the law in its present form. Time To Consider Seaton said he is recommend ing postponement of these sales so that Congress will have ade quate time to consider whether all or part of the tribal forest should be purchased by the fed eral government. He also said Congress should consider whether continued con servation - type management of the forest is in the general pub lic interest. FISH STORY Alden, Mich.

Sheffield It was in that lively musical show titled "Little Johnny Jones" that George M. Cohan introduced the immortal ditty "Give My Regards to Broad way" When "Little Johnny Jones" was first presented in New York it was a failure. Did Cohan close the show? No, sir. He was made of sterner stuff. He took the production on the road again, polished it up, did a lot of rewriting and and re turned to Broadway with it later and it developed .into a smash hit. It was "Little Johnny Jones" that inspired the saying, "Good plays are not written. They are rewritten." Says She "Your obvious partiality for Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 22) women is revolting. They certainly have you intimidated," writes a Chi cagoan. "I know many Scorpio women and have carefully noted their characteristics. They are big, bulgy, boastful, bovine and boresome. Their sex appeal is of the plunging neckline, hip- wiggling variety plus large doses of provocative perfume. And what nasty tempers!" Asking Queries from clients. Q. Have heard several different reasons advanced as to why a woman wears her wedding ring on the third finger of the left hand. What have you to say tbout this?. A. The third finger of the left hand is known as "The Finger of Life" and connects with the heart. So it was selected for the wearing of the wedding ring. Q.

It was what was in the "fine print" that lost him the case. I always read every word in a printed contract six times. That is except the "fine print" part. I read that 12 times.
