ECBamath Tribal land Sales Mice
Jo Open at Klamath Fails Oct. 27
Portland-flTD-The Klamath
Tribal land sales office will
open at Klamath Falls, Ore.,
Oct. 27 with Earl R. Wilcox,
former Klamath reservation
forester, as its manager, the
Interior Department announc
ed today.
The new office will be su
pevised by the Portland area
office of the Bureau of In
dian Affairs.
The land sales office in
Klamath Falls will adminis
ter sales of Klamath Indian
tribal property under provi
sions of the Klamath Termi
nation Act.
Glenn L. Emmons, commis
sioner of Indian affairs, said
the sales office would help
carry out provisions of public
law 85-731. One of these pro
visions is that the secretary
of Interior perform all func
tions of the management spe
cialists. Most of these func
tions have been completed
and all that remains is for
the Indian Bureau to sell
enough of the Klamath prop
erty to satisfy interests of the
withdrawing members of the
tribe.
Boundaries Being Set
The original Klamath termi
nation act provides that each
member of the tribe electing
to withdraw shall have his
interest in tribal property con
verted into money and paid
to him. The most recent
amendments to the act pro
vide that tribal lands com
prising the Klamath Indian
forest and tribal lands com
prising the Klamath marsh
shall be designated by the
secretary of interior and the
secretary of agriculture joint
ly. Boundaries of the two
Envoys Discuss
Formosa Crisis;
To Meet Thursday
Warsaw, Poland -(UPD- The
United States and Commun
ist China met at the confer
ence table today to discuss
peace or war in the Formosa
strait.
U. S. Ambassador Jacob
Beam and Chinese Ambassa
dor Wang Ping-nan talked for
two hours and 45 minutes in
their first face-to-face meeting
on the Far East crisis. Their
discussion marked the 74th
session of the prolonged nego
tiations that have stretched
out for several years.
No Communique
They will meet again on
Thursday. There was no com
munique after today's session.
Beam, asked if he had any
comment on the long discus
sion, said "nothing, nothing at
all." ;
Wang was similarly silent
as the two ambassadors and
their aides, three apiece, filed
out of the conference room in
the Myslewiecki palace here.
The talks began in an aura
of optimism-after an initial
feeling of pessimism-that at
least a cease fire could be
achieved in the Formosa
strait.
. . The length of today's meet
ing did nothing to harm this
tautious feeling of hope.
First For Beam
It was the 74th meeting of
the Sino-American representa
tives for Wang, but the first
for Beam. The talks broke
off in Geneva last December
in a stalemate over Formosa.
Beam, lanky and strong
willed, sat down with Wang,
who proved himself to be a
stone wall of Chinese impas
sivity in talks with Ambas
sador U. Alexis Johnson, the
U. S. representative in the 73
previous sessions.
Background for Talks
They met against this back
ground: renewed assertions
today by Peiping that it in
tended to occupy Quemoy,
Matsu and Formosa and a re
newed artillery bombard
ment; open pessimism in
Washington and U. S. warn
ings that invasion attempts
would be met with U. S. force;
pessimistic statements in Mos
cow that the talks were
"clumsy maneuvers to justify
U. S. aggression."
Liberal Immigration
Policy Said Needed
Portland-UPD-A New York
judge says immigration poli
cies of this country should be
liberalized.
Judge Juvenal Marchisio of
the New York City domestic
relations court told the Ore
gon chapter of the American
Committee on Italian Migra
tion that despite the recession
skilled workers from abroad
were needed in many indus
tries. "We're not asking that the
doors be opened wide to mi
grants from abroad but we do
say present policies should be
liberalized," he said. He said
he believed the quota should
be raised to 250,000 from the
present 153,000.
areas are being determined
now.
Amendments also provide
that the portion of the forest
selected for the sale to sat
isfy withdrawing members'
claims shall be "offered for
sale by the secretary of the
interior in appropriate units
on the basis of competitive
bids to any purchaser or pur
chasers who agree to manage
the forest lands as far as prac
ticable according to sustained
yield procedure so as to fur
nish a continuous supply of
timber."
The new law, passed by the
recent session of Congress,
also provides that if all the
forestry units offered for sale
are not sold before April 1,
1961, the secretary of agricul
ture shall publish in the Fed
eral Register a proclamation
taking title in the name of
the United States to as many
of the unsold units or parts
thereof as have, together with
the Klamath Marsh, an aggre
gate value not to exceed $90
million.
Review Set
An amendment to the act
provides for a review of the
appraisal of the Klamath res
ervation made for the man
agement specialists. In Febru
ary of this year the Interior
Department said properties of
the Klamath tribe, including
the 694,000-acre tribal forest,
had a realization value of
$121,659,618. The term "real
ization value" is defined as
"the fair market value of such
forest units and marsh lands"
if they had been offered for
sale on a competitive market
without limitation on use dur
ing the interval between ad
journment of the 85th Con
gress and August 13, 1951.
Western Timber Service, Ar
eata, Calif., performed the
original appraisal. Three in
dependent appraisers will re
view it.
The first appraisal covered
all tribal properties embraced
within the 862,657-acre reser
vation. The reservation was
established under an 1864
treaty.
Properties include 693,997
acres of forest land, predomi
nantly ponderosa pine; 127,
938 acres of range land; 23,
421 acres of marshland, an
important wildlife area, plus
farmland, brushland, waste
lands, buildings, lookout tow
ers and personal property.
Amended Three Times
Emmons said that since
passage of the Klamath termi
nation act in August, 1954; it
has been amended three
times. He said "some provi
sions of the original act al
ready have been carried out
by the Bureau of Indian
Affairs."
He said the Portland office
had completed work on estab
lishment of 911 trusts to pro
tect the rights of members of
the tribe who are minors,
mentally incompetent, or, in
the opinion of the secretary
of the interior, in need of
help in conducting their af
fairs. Emmons said that since
Dec. 31, 1954, at request of
the Indian owners, a total of
about 74,287 acres of indi
vidually - alloted lands have
been sold, or patents in fee
issued, under provisions of
the act. He added that "a total
of some 54,854 acres of al
lotted lands have lost their
trust status and title has
passed to the owners in fee
simple, either because no ac
tion on them was requested
by the owner or they were
not sold due to lack of inter
est on the local market."
Wilcox Background
Wilcox, in taking over the
new Klamath tribal land sales
office', will be returning to
the Bureau of Indian Affairs,
from which he resigned , in
January of 1957 to accept a
position with the manage
ment specialists as their for
estry adviser.
Wilcox is a native of Wash
ington state and a University
of Washington forestry school
graduate of 1938. He served
in the Army in World War
II and returned to the Bureau
of Indian Affairs in 1946
where he served in various
forestry positions at the ' Ta
holah and western Washing
ton agencies until 1951, when
he returned to active duty
in the Army for 15 months.
He was chief of the for
estry branch at the Klamath
Agency from 1952 until his
resignation.
Wilcox will be assisted by
Richard D. Popp, a native of
Iowa and a 1935 graduate of
Iowa State College in for
estry. Roads Built
The Interior Department
said that during the four
years the Klamath termina
tion act has been in effect,
the secretary of the interior
delegated to the Klamath
Agency of the Portland area
office responsibility for pre
paring the proposed and final
Klamath tribal roll. This was
published in the Federal
Register Nov. 21, 1957.
The office also has pushed
a road construction program
on the reservation in which
80 miles of improved road
have been completed. The
county will take this over for
maintenance on completion
of termination procedures;
Through contract arrange
ments with the Oregon State
Department of Education, the
Portland area office has car
ried on under provisions of
the act a "special program of
education and training design
ed to help the members of
the tribe to earn a livelihood,
to conduct their own affairs
and to assume their responsi
bilities as citizens without
special services because of
their status as Indians."
Refugees From
Red China Land
On American Soil
San Francisco- (UPD -Eighty-one
Chinese intellectuals,
refugees from Communist
terror, were ready to start a
new life in America today.
The engineers, teachers,
scientists and businessmen,
together with their families,
arrived aboard a Pan Ameri
can plane Sunday. Their trip
was arranged by "Aid Refugee
Chinese Intellectuals, Inc.," a
private organization headed
by Rep. Walter H. Judd (R
Minn.). The group entered the coun
try under a new immigration
provision which permits cer
tain classes of refugees to
enter on resident visas. They
will continue their professions
in America.
Most of the group fled
China when the Communists
took over the nation, and
have been living in Hong
Kong as displaced persons.
The refugees were chosen
by a committee of the Judd
organization on the basis of
their education and ability,
as well as the degree of hard
ship suffered.
Dozens of relatives and
friends were on hand at In
ternational Airport Sunday in
a joyous reunion scene.
S. P. Soong, local Chinese
consul, and K. S. Wang, repre
senting the refugee aid group
which brought the refugees
to America headed the recep
tion committee.

Sunday Editor, The Oregonian
I . "You really can't blame the
bears. For the most part, they
aren't mean, unless you tease
'them. It's just that they don't
know where the food leaves off
and your arm begins. So don't
be tempted to hand out food
to them."
This was the way Melvin W.
Awe, manager of Canyon Vil
lage, the world's largest motel,
;in the heart of Yellowstone
jPark, sent us off on our loop
! motor trip of the park's natural
wonders.
He was describing what are
a. the same time the park's
i most popular attraction and its
'most dangerous.
iEears Bite Tourists
The bears of Yellowstone Na
tional Park are an appealing
!bunch of moochers, sitting be
side the road and begging tid
bits from passing motorists.
Despite all warnings from
Park Service officials, who pro
hibit feeding the bears, few
people can resist giving them
something. Some reason falsely
that if they remain in the car
and pass food through the car
window, they are safe.
The result is that on the aver
age, at least one tourist is in
jured each day, severely bitten
or scratched on hands and
arms. For as Canyon Village
Manager Awe warned, the
bears just don't know where
the food leaves off and your
arm begins.
Attractions Weighed
We arrived at Canyon Village
I after a 2V-day drive from Port-
land, on an Oregon State Motor
i Assn.-Oregonian motor log.
i There is much more to Yel
ilowstone than the much-pub-
licized geyser, Old Faithful
though this is the only attrac
tion known to most non-visitors.
There are many other natural
wonders of equal or greater
interest.
Just north of Canyon Lodge,
: a short drive off the main high
jvay, is Inspiration Point,

views of the river canyon
and of the precipitous drop of
Tower Creek as it joins the
Yellowstone. Picture-t a k i n g

at the falls.
Hospital Available
On through high mountain
meadows, and just before ar
riving at Mammoth Hot
Springs, we discovered one of
the park's delightful roadside
campgrounds with fireplaces
and picnic tables, and we stop
ped for lunch beside the clear
waters of Lava Creek.
There, we talked to two
campers from Portland, Hank
Matson and Gary Robinson,
whose tent had been ripped the
night before by a park bear
searching for food.
Just a few miles further
and we came to Mammoth Hot
Springs, northern end of our
park loop.
At Mammoth are the head
quarters of the Park Service,
the park hospital and the main
offices of the 60-year-old Yel
lowstone Park Company, a
517,000,000 family corporation
founded by H. W. Child and
operated by his descendants.
Running Yellowstone Na
tional Park is big business.
The annual payroll of the
park's three concessionaires
(Yellowstone Park C o mpany,
Haynes Studios, Inc. and Ham
ilton Stores, Inc.) plus that of
the Park Service totals 53,000,
000 a year. Tne four agencies
spend another $2,500,000 annu
ally for supplies and operating
costs.
A park museum, featuring
an outstanding collection of
stuffed native birds, is a tour
ist attraction at Mammoth, but
the big attractions are the Pal
isade formations fashioned by
the hot springs for which the
area was named.
South of Mammoth, en route
to Old Faithful, our tight two
day schedule forced us to pass
any number of intriguing areas
of volcanic activity fuma
roles, from which hot gases
and vapors poured, boiling
mud pots and multi-colored hot
springs. We did stop at Obsi
dian Cliff, a giant outcropping
of the shiny black, ultra-hard
material that was so sought
after by the Indian tribes for
arrowheads.
After passing a number of en
ticing "fishing streams, which
were being worked by anglers,
we reached Old Faithful, where
we were able to check into our
cabin and rush back to the
spectators' area just in time
to see the giant fountain erupt
at 8 p.m., under the search
lights. The southern part of the
park loop trip takes you to Yel
lowstone Lake, where fishing
and water recreation are the
popular acl.....es. Rental row
boats are available for anglers,
and high powered speed, boats
offer thrilling, scenic rides
around this large body of wa
ter, one of the highest in eleva
tion in the nation.
