Uncommunicative
Plans of
If the Shevlin-HIxon company is planning an immedi
ate entry into the Klamath white pine belt, its general
manager, Thoma3 McCann hasn't been apprised of it yet.
At least, that is what he told The Evening Herald over
long-dietance telephone from McCloud, Cal., this after
noon. .
The generalissimo of the big Bend timber operators
denied wire ,reports that 3. conference; of high officials
of the comapny is being held at McCloud relative to the
Klamath situation. He said that his company has no
information of any kind as to when it can be expected
to start its Klamath operations.
Meanwhile, local lumber operators are; smiling, and
so far but one explanation has been given for all this
pecrecv concerning the projected Shevlin-Hixon opera
tions. That is that the company is waiting as long as
possible to determine what the Hill lines may or may not
do regarding their plans for
