By the end of the week the last contract on the Ore gon section of that highway will be let by the state high way commission, and there is no longer need of keeping .it on the chamber of commerce-county court program. It held the No. 1 position there. At Wednesday's meet ing needed projects on the Klamath-Lakeview highway were advanced to that position. It was a long, hard pull for the Weed road. Traffic, fortunately, kept ahead 6f the development, emphasizing the need in a way that could not possibly have been done by mere predictions of travel the road would carry. Cali fornia, with a much longer section of the Weed-Klamath route, has been giving it steady help, and it is to be hoped the California improvements can be pushed on to final completion in the near future. In 1931, the county's highway program was formed. It has been revised a number of times since then. Here it is, as adopted after the last revision : Project No. WASHINGTON, Jan, 9 The atory behind the Morgan. hearing, la as short as any ovor told. It can be written in ono word publicity. The inquiry started off like the headline-grasping grap ple of the century. It is fairly well known that capable Chairman Nyo'a unan nounced purpose is to promote public sentiment for his particu lar kind of neutrality legislation. He opened the hearing with a three-p-age stump speech. Copies were avnllablo to the press in unlimited quantities. J. P. Morgan has been a sena torial witness before. He was prepared this time with twice as j many pages as Nye. These were delivered iu the senatorial mun- i ner. But, what was smarter, he I began giving out advance copies of his speech confidentially to thA nK, In Vaw Yrtrlp twn Huv.o ' . I" M - -. .1 " " before. It was in most news paper offices when Nye started to speak. Thus, he scored a me chanical scoop on Nye and got the headlines in the noon editions (or his side.

Project No. VII Highways ythrough the city Realign ad reconstruct highways through the city eliminating dangerous traffic hazards , caused by narrow streets and sharp curves. It should be understood that this program pertains strictly to state highways, primary and secondary. There fore it does not include such needed projects as county road improvements, or the Main street underpass inside the city. It is the program that goes before the state highway commission. It constitutes a list of projects that are essential to the continued development of -a state highway system in this part of the state, in response to the demonstrated needs of the traveling public. TRAPPIXOS Mr. Morgan left the midget at home this year, but. in all other respects, his circus was biggor and better than ever. A 40-room suite was required to house It at a hotel. His army of performers carried brief cases tilled with state ments on every subject imagin able. Whenever the senatorial inquisitors asked about a French loan or something, he called up on his brief case carriers for statement No. 1S2-J or 69S-B. These also were available iu quantities. i he prise one, however, was an eight-page chronology of events leading up to the World War. Some of the events were printed In bold-faced type to catch the eye of casual readers. ii n na-mvw. n i in i J IYttiv -iv r.n X" .KKK .wy tM .,.,. , wtYtcc wc, r.a ma u . m. of," mm Ten Years Ago In Klamath BAN KHANl'lHCO, (Special to iho Huriild) Ai'mnlliiK to thu latust confldmitliil Information circulating among Hie hliihur-up hern In railroad elreles, Iho sched uled hearing of thu liiteislate com iitorco coiumissinn on February 4 and 6 will not ho held, Instead, so It Is related among sources which uppenr to bo aii- Iheiitie, Ihn decuplliitlon of l'resl dent Hproulu mid Kxeeiitlvo Vice President Hlioup of tho Southern Pacific will have been completed prior to that duto. and a new pol icy of common tinrr In tho Klaui nth country will huvu been an nounced ns the result of a get together conference, of Southern 1'uclfic and Northern line officials, engineered by Arthur C James, thu largest Individual stockholder in the Southern Pacific us well as tho holding compuny for Iho Northern lines.

Local news reviewers made no effort along this line, but there was a national survey that mentions the chain letter craze, certainly a goofy development in Klamath Falls as elsewhere in 1935. . Here is a review of the nutty news of 1935, as it ap pears in the newspaper, "Newsdom". The story that the Ethiopians were training Hons to attack Italian troops; the revelation In a Chicago trial that hundreds of Americans in the middle west had parted with thousands of dol lars under the impression that they were heirs to the estate of Francis Drake; tho complaint of the New Jersey nudists who caused the arrest of a farmer for spying on them. Tho story of Stephen K Simkhovitch, who signed a contract In California to be frozen completely, then revived In the Interests of science; the atory that Lawrence of Arabia is still alive and is now a British agent in Ethiopia; the escape of Frank Buck's Al Capone and other monkeys from the compound in Massapequa, L I; the chain letter craze; Mayor Charles Smith's contests at Seattle, Including the putting-out-the-cat contest, the putting-on-the-diaper contest for fathers and ending with the "icemen's dash for the housewives' kiss," in which a score of Icemen carrying 60-pound tieces of ice on their tongs raced for rewards from domtstlo beautiea With a lot of elections coming up to offer politicians a chance to perform their antics in the spotlight, 1936 should develop an over-supply of goofy news. STUXXED The AAA decision may have been the most momentous since Dred Scott, but the following day was the quietest Washington has experienced in a long time. The only reason you did not hear a pin drop was that most of the statesmen were afraid to let even a significant idea fall. Then senate was not In session. The house, at this momentous hour, devoted itself to the most inconsequential of all business, the private bill of congressmen .seeking money for individual constituents, for pensions, small , claims, etc. The only mention of AAA was by Congressman Peter son of Georgia. He offered to the world as a substitute a bill which he said he had written on his own type writer In his own office. The cheering from the floor was accompanied by laugh ter. President Roosevelt had few callers. No conferences were ar ranged. His secretary said he would not speak about AAA for some time. CAl'TIO.V " Explanations for this calm-after-the-hurrlcane were varied. The new deal crowd said Mr. Roosevelt was wisely awaiting public reaction. He spoke too soon after the NRA decision. A president can go no farther than the people want to go. A good number of democratic congressmen (particularly those from the south) were mumbling that they did not want to eet into a constitutional amendment fight. It requires a two-thirds majority of both houses and three-fourths of the states. Opponents of AAA muttered personal suspicions that their victory was perhaps a little too big. They were confident the long-range effect would be bene ficial, but were doubtful about how to proceed now. The town of Middlesex. Penn sylvania, has erected a big sign ovor the highway, reuding: "Luu don was boru here." tiny day that a member la absent j from a regular meeting. Our club nns organised on November , j 1935. On that day wo elected our' officers. We linve not yet voted ! on a name for our club. Our club , colors are silver and pink. Congressman Maverick sent let ters to the press asking tor Ideas on the "crucial Issues of 19116." He wanted to use them in a speech. The almost unanimous response was; "The re-election of Maverick." j The attention of national au thorities has been called to a re port of tho Nassau county, N. Y., grand Jury recommending strengthening of the laws against drunken driving. Eventually every city will have a law per manently revoking the permits of anyone driving while drunk.

Sprague River VERDICT Every insider on both sides had a different personal opinion about the political and economic effect of the decision. New dealers gen erally charged the court with playing politics. They admitted the best paying political feature of the new deal had been wiped out. But wariest republicans were not certain they had been helped materially. They noted that the farm leaders were asaemblfng here to devise a program which would presumably be tried before the campaign. THE HOMKMAKIXG CLUB By I.enora liner SPRAGUE RIVER, Ore.
