PORTLAND. Nov. 27. The
State highway commission todav
accepted the Klamath county
court'a recommendation that tho
highway botwecn Klamath Falls
and Lakevlew be routed through
Dairy, Bonanza, Beatty and Bly.
This disposed of the matter which
been have been under considera
tion three yeara. ' ,
Three other routes were con
sidered and each waa earnestly
advocated by parsons living In tho
localltlea to ha aerved.
Harry J. Tlchnorilod the Lan-
gell valley delegation, favoring a
routo east from Donanin.
Promoters of tha new townslte
of Bprague Itlvcr urged a - routo
which would Include Vnlnax, on
Spraguo river a few miles 'cast of
the towuslta. 11. A, Hutto headed
tba proponents of tbla route.
SHU another group advocated a
route from Dairy to Beatty, thence
oast to Dly.
The county court held that the
Dairy IJonania Beatty Uly
routo was beat since It Bonanza
were not Included It would be no-
coaaary for the county to build a
market road to Bonama at a cost
of 160,000 to the county. Aa the
mutter now roate, the county will
get atato aid.

ceeded Its quota ao that 4!) pr cent
of the money raised remained In the
county for health work.
Although tba sale begins offi
cially December 1. seala will be dis
tributed to the children tomorrow ao
that they can have two days this

classed as rural schools.
A year'a subscription to the Na

It la the achoole selling tho most aeala

Not by Red Cross.
Tho sale of Christmas aeals Is not,
as seems to be popularly supposed,
conducted by the Red CroBs. It Is
undor the auspices ot the National
Tuberculosis association, and la car
ried on In each county by the County
Health association or aimllnr organ!
zatlon. Part of the money goes to
national headquarters, and the rest
Is kept by the 'county. A quota la
fixed based on the population as
given by tho last census. This year's
quota for Klamath county baa not
been received yet, but the greater
the nunrne; of seals sold here, the
larger will be the percentage nf
money Hint can be. used In the
county.
When tho county sale per capita U
less than four, the local health anso
elation keeps only SO per cent: when
It Is from' 4-5. It keeps 35 per cent;
from 5-6, 43 per cent; 0-7. 50 per

WASHINGTON, Not. 11 Sale of
War Department properties acquir
ed during the war and declared to
possesa no military value for the
government In peace life had return
ed f044.e79.820 to the Treaaa.y on
June 30, 1928, according to the
annual report of Assistant Secretary
Dwlgbt Davis. The returns mada
In the 1923 fiscal year totalled
?0, 447,742, the remainder having
been made In 1922 and previously.
An analysis ot the returns and
coats of the properties disposed of
show that the average percentage
of recovery to June 30, last, was 38
percent. The cost value of property
still on hand for disposition at the
same time was $117,828,248, of
which $72,662,416 represented the!
cost of lands and buildings.
The report ahowa that the War
Department- still faces a gigantic'
task in finally adjusting war con
tracts. The War Transactions
Doa-id, created for the purpose of
making an administrative Investigat
ion ot war contracts in co-operation
with a similar board apopinted by
the attorney general, the report says,
had made a good start and "promises
much toward the rational and final
settlement of war transactions."
The majority of the cases now be

those on which payments were with
