Klamath Indians
Get $2.5 Million
PORTLAND (UPI) -Fifty-one
years ago a government survey
or accidently short-changed the
Klamath Indians 621,824 acres
while mapping boundaries for
the tribal reservation.
Thursday the white man paid
for his mistake to the tune of
$2.5 million.
El Nathan Davis, secretary of
the tribal executive committee,
announced the compromise set
tlement with the Justice De
partment which is still subject
to the approval of the Klamath
tribe, the secretary of the in
terior and the Indian Claims
Commission.
David P. Weston, U.S. tribal
operations officer, said the gov
ernment paid the Indians about
3 cents an acre for the land aft
er the error was discovered. Lut
in 1951 the Indians pressed a
claim against the govern
ment on the grounds they'd
been short changed.
If the tribe's 2,133 members
vote to accept the settlement at
a Dec. 7 meeting in Chiloquin,
it will mean about $1,066 for
each member.

TN A PALM SPRINGS motel, a whole corridor was enter
l tained one evening by a harangue conducted by a shrill
wife in the motel's deluxe suite. The husband's entire con
tribution consisted of a
few '"uh-huhs."
Suddenly there was a
series of bangs, a mo
ment's pause, and then
the plaintive wail of the
wife. "Henry, I simply
refuse to speak to you
through three locked
doors!"
The late Joe Frisco, stuttering-
comic, was actually
funnier off-stage than he
was before the footlights.
He had an incurable mania
for betting on horses that
finished last.
A friend once urged him to put $10,000 a year aside for s
rainy day. "Comes another depression In ten years," explained
the friend, "and you'll be sitting pretty with a hundred thousand
dollars stashed away."
"N-n-nothlng doing," decided Frisco. "With my l-l-luck, therc d
be no depression, and I'd Just be -s-.tuck with the hundred
thousand!"
In Chicago, a bookseller complained to the police that a cu
tomer had purchased a copy of "A Dictionary of Underworld
Slaps and paid for it with a counterfeit five-dollar bill.

Roundup
. Many of the tubes which,
when tested with gas, seemed
to be open, actually were not
functioning well enough : to
carry an ovum into the womb.
This explained the woman's in
fertility. Sometimes the trouble
was due to adhesions around
the tubes. As the doctors said
so wisely, much more than pa
tency (being open) of the tubes
is required for their successful
function.
In quite a few cases the wom
an's infertility could be traced
back to a ruptured acute appen
dix, perhaps in childhood. This
left adhesions which interfered
greatly with the functions of the
ovaries and the tubes.
Strangely, when an infertile
woman has so-called polycystic
ovaries, which are full of little
cysts or bags of fluid, if a wedge
is cut out of an ovary, the wom
an has one chance in three of
becoming pregnant.
Of the 126 patients operated
on who have kept in touch with
their doctors, 21 per cent have
become pregnant. ,
Many claim they have a cure
for cancer, but few have. Too
many quacks prey upon des
perate stricken people. To learn
more about cancer, its danger
signals and its cures, send 25
cents and a stamped, self
addressed envelop with your re
quest to Dr. Walter C. Alvarez,

could be speeding through some
U.S. cities at 100 miles an hour.
A lot depends on what Con
gress decides.
Many of the cities rapid tran
sit plans hinge on some type of
federal aid.
Legislation now before con
gressional committees would
provide $100 million for federal
grants in each of the first two
years and $200 million in each
of the last 'two years of a four
year program to aid cities in
building transit facilities.
Under terms of tne bin, a fed
eral grant for a specific proj
ect could not exceed two-thirds
of the cost of a project.
Congressional observers see
little chance that the biU will
pass this year, but such rapid
transit plans as san rrancisco s
$790 million project or New
York s proposed subway aam-
tion will be constructed with or
without federal aid.
Key Word
"Compatibility" is the key
word in the rapid transit plans.
It nrevents cities sucn as
New York, and Chicago, which
already have rapid transit sys
tems, from switching to the ful
ly automated system planned
by San Francisco.
In cities which do not pres
ently have rapid transit systems
the compatibility problem may
stall introduction of such "wide
blue yonder" ideas as com
pressed air propulsion or air
levitation vehicles.
Gene R. Schaefer, director of
Pittsburgh's WABCO mass tran
sit center, which has assembled
as much Information on tne sud-
jeet as is possible to obtain, be
lieves that most rapid transit
systems and most additions to
them in the next decade or so
will be similar to the systems
now in existence.
Further, the hard-eyed under
writers who pass upon bond is
sues may look askance at new,
untried methods.
Future Markets
Schaefer sees five future mar
kets for rapid transit:
Downtown distribution sys
tems to disperse the commuters
after they arrive in the central
business area.
"Closed loop" (no interme
diate stops) distribution systems
to connect two large shopping
areas.
High speed shuttle services
to connect central business
areas with airports or exposi
tion grounds.
Flexible systems employing
either exDress buses or limited
tramways on both public and
private right-of-way, adaptable
to passenger density of zero to
30.000 an hour, for cities in the
500,000 to 1 million population
bracket.
High speed conventional two
rail rapid transit systems, using
private right-of-way to bring
commuters to the central busi
ness area.
Downtown distribution might
involve shuttle buses, as it does
in Chicago and as proposed in
Pittsburgh; moving sidewalks,
as in Tacoma, Wash.; or a belt
system of individual cars, seat
ing one or two persons each and

The high speed shuttle service
might employ express buses us
ing freeways, conventional two
rail vehicles, or monorail. It
would be much faster than the
closed loop system. San Fran

in monorail links with outlying
