PU VTUOimk na" ' ""'S Coplaa of Ua Nawa and Herald, aeoat Ua JUamatk I Us tnarkat, any or Klamath Snow Sports THE two Klamath county snow sports organizations, the the Klamath Snow Clan and the Crater Lake Ski club, will be sponsors of a joint meet to be held Sunday at the Annie creek playground above Fort Klamath. They plan a full afternoon's program of races and jumps, and on Saturday and Sunday night official club dances will be held at Fort Klamath. This meet is the first one between the two clubs, exclusively. The Crater Lake Ski club of Fort Klamath pioneered winter sports in this area. The Snow Clan developed as an organization in response to increasing interest in winter sports in Klamath Falls, and the need for an organization to promote interest in these sports in Crater lake park, which has a chance to become permanently an all-year park. The Sunday meet will feature, especially, junior events. It should be well worth while attending, and support on Sunday will encourage the two organizations to take the lead in planning a snow sports meet in Crater lake park in March. It is suggested to civic-minded Klamath people that they go to the snow country Sunday morning, and drive Into the national park far enough to obtain their 1936 park stickers. This will help build winter attendance, so important in asking the park service for winter road funds, and those who take it will find the trip interest ing and inspiring. Their sticker will be good for the entire year. They can return to Fort Klamath by noon, when the program begins. Traffic Code Uniformity THERE is no sense to the hodge-podge of traffic regu lations one encounters as he drives from city to city. Everybody agrees that uniformity is needed. ' A step in that direction came this week when the supreme court upheld the state's basic speed law in invalidating the Portland -traffic limit of 26 miles per hour. The court's ruling means that the basic principle; of indicated safe speeds prevails in every, city as well as on .the highways -outside. I But it does sot mean that all the bars are down for fast driving in the cities. It, in fact, places more re sponsibility than ever on the shoulders of the driver, for he must, to be within the law, drive carefully at all times. At some places, he will be violating the law if he ex ceeds 16 miles an hour. Under certain conditions, he might be liable to a reckless driving charge at even a lesser speed. Buried Treasure A WORLD explorer and archeologist in a recent book makes the striking point that only a handful of the world's lost treasure has been recovered. .... The history of man's efforts 'down through the cen turies to recover pilfered- loot- has been shadowed with tragedy and failure. Only a few,- men ; have recovered precious jewels . from ocean depths, or pieces of eight from their hiding places on lonely southern islands. In those instances where the treasure might have been made available by man-devised means, Nature in variably stepped in, covering the loot with great land slides or corroding the valuables with, limestone to pre vent their identification. The omen is 'significant The scheme of things on this old planet seems eternally stacked against getting . something for nothing., And if you'll look a bit closer to our own times, you II see last great treasure hunt of millions to get rich overnight on gtocic manipulations. . To sum it up, in the words of Mr." Dooley "When somebody gives you somethin' you haven't -got comin,' call the police!" DQEBR DISCUSSES By Bertha Haase (High School Correspondent) John E. Doerr, park naturalist At Crater lake park, who recently has been transferred from the na tional park of Hawaii, addressed the student body of Klamath Un ion high school at the assembly held Wednesday, when he relat ed volcanic activities of the is lands. Doerr also touched briefly up on the seven moot Important of the thirty-five islands. He told the legendary origin of the is lands on which the natives' reli gion on terms of fire is based. Doerr had the opportunity of witnessing the recent eruption of Mt. Mauna Loa for eight days before coming to Oregon. "There Is no natural pheno mena as awe-insplrlng as volcan lo activity. The volcanoes of the islands are dome shaped as com pared to the cone shaped ones of nearly all other active volcanoes f the world, and their activities are quiet, lava rolling out of cracks down mountain sides at the slow rate of 100 to 160 feet n hour, or boiling away, a lake of molten lava. Eruptions are not dangerous."

WASHINGTON NBW8 UKULND THIS NKWS a a a The Inaldo Story From Tta Capital a a a Br PAUL MALIXN Copyright 1938, by Paul Mallon WASHINGTON, Feb. 11. Pre ident Roosevelt called a republi can senator down to the White House not long ago and asked him what wo wrong with the New Deal. The republican Is loyal, but somewhat lndepent, and distinct ly not a word-mincer. He has a picturesque vocabulary and spe cialises in short words commonly used in conversation but not in print. Ho used them all, one by one and then collectively, to describe what he called "the blankoty- blank saps" who are operating some Important phases of the New Deal. He snld they never had a dash-dashed bit of busi ness experience, but were fonnu latlng federal business policies. Also that they had never made enough money to spend any of their own, but war spending millions and billions of Mr. Mor- genthau's. It Is doubtful whether the pres ident has ever been talked to that way since he entered upon his life among the political lawn' ers of Washington. He took it quietly, thanked the senator for the advice. Note The senator also emit ted a blue haze about the low cost housing program. He con tended it tends to ireeie tne existing low standard of living, tends to freeie low labor wage scales. Also he wanted to know what would happen to the gov ernment it the tenants of the low-cost homes were unable to pay. a a a HOVSE-CLEAXI.NG AnnthAp anslar-E-nlnr Tenubll- can senator was called In later and asked, what he thought was vmnt. Ha also sDoke frankly. but with less enthusiasm. His complaint was chiefly against tbe swing away from the antt-trust Inwa and against waste in gov- .rnmnntal nnflnH II lima Both senators acceptea tne president s Inquiry at lace vaiue. nnfh nlen went twaT with a feel ing that he was contemplating an early spring nouse cleaning. SOFT-PEDAL The peculiarities of this ses sion of congress continue to ex pand as each day passes. There has never been another session quite like it. Virtually no sus pended interest exists in any pending legislation, ana, in iact. very little interest of any kind What is happening is tnis: The administration is conduct ing its own congress off-stage. The congressional leaders get together and find out ahead of time exactly what degree of leg islation can be passed (note well. tbe bonus, neutrality bill, farm bill). Practically all difference are composed in private. When the bills are brought forward, thev are already backed by a staggering majority. T.hat' leaves little to talk about and notnmg nnon . which' a first-class fight can be started. Resistance by the minority is useless and often routine. The reason behind this un usual strategy, of course, is that the president wants no clashes in a campaign year. The result is that, while con gress is passing legislation of highest importance,, the usual dramatizing elements are entire ly lacking and the session is un precedentedly dull for the actors as well as the audience. a a a NOSE-TILTING Farleyites are planning a lit tle surprise for Al Smith. They figure that the New York state convention may he induced to adopt a unit rule requiring aU delegates to vote for the choice of tbe majority of delegates. Thus Al Smith may find himself voting' for Mr. Roosevelt for re- nomination whether he likes it or not. Incidentally, the White House and Postmaster General Farley's office were somewhat caustic in denying the other day that Tam many leader Pooling had been summoned to either place. Presi dential Secretary Maclntyre went in . to ask , the president about it. Returning, he said: "Abso lutely no. Elsewhere . the hint; was drop ped that Mr. Dooling would not be welcome at either place, a a a ARMED The goods which Congressman Bell is supposed to have on the Townsendites is composed large ly of a mass of letters complain ing about the financial set-up of various parts ol the organiza tion. He also has a Colorado court record and some other rec ords of financial troubles of sev eral Townsend groups. Some who have gone over his file believe be can make a case from facts already in his posses sion, but the few Townsendites In congress do not a a a NOTES Congressman Lemke wore a cap when he went up to see tbe president. .He Is probably the only congressman who favors such an informal lid.

' Probably the only author In the history of the world who does not remember the titles of his own works is Mr. Roosevelt. When he described his latest tax conference as Chapter II in the tax book, someone asked him what was the name of tbe book. Turning to bis secretary, he In quired: "What was the name of that last book I wrote?" The secretary said it was: "On Our Way," which title Mr. Roosevelt Immediately adopted for his un written, recommendations. Official unpublished figures indicate that, out of 26.000 Post masters now holding office, about 4,000 to 5,000, are re publicans. The house leaders oan get ten more signatures removed from the Frazler-Lemke petition if It gets close to a majority, or it they really want to.

Hous- er and Michael Skellen entered pleas of guilty to charges of vagrancy and panhandling Fri day morning before Police Judge Richmond, and were sentenced to 40 days in Jail and $100 tine each. Both fines and Jail sen tences were to be suspended pro viding the vagrants left Klamath Falls at once. C. G. Holland, charged with drunk and disorderly conduct upon arrest early Friday, plead ed guilty and was fined (20 or sentenced to serve 10 days in the city jail. Driver Strikes .

V:-ATWi X X BERYL MERCER j J RUTH ETTiNG IN "TUNED OUT" I I Vince Barnett in "Brain Butters" III fj j COLOR CARTOON and NEWS i by George Clark Telling the Editor Algoma, Ore. (To the Edi tor): Algoma may be only a wide spot in the road, but It contributes over $37,000 monthly In company payrolls alone, to the wealth of Klamath county, and these payrolls mean the support of several hundred people who don t propose. It they can help it, to permit a 10 to 25 per cent curtailment of this income in or der to support the crazy pipe dream or an aged doctor and the money grabbing scheme of an ex-real estate speculator. We would like to point out to the wrltor from Bonanza, that Algoma Is representative of thou sands of communities having similar conditions, and thoreforo. is a fair example of what will happen In all such communities, and give an idea of the loss to business men of nearby towns by the reduced purchasing power of the workers In these commun ities. Permit ns (o point out that the $541 directly deducted from the payroll Is only a small part of what the Algoma workers would pay Into the Townsend fund. On the authority of cer tain Townsend leaders, whoso names we have mentioned be fore, these workers will have to pay at 'least ; $3,249, or over $1,800 more per month than the pensions would bring into the community.- The Algoma work ers could only pay this amount In transaction taxes by depriv ing their families of some of the necessities of life, therefore, pass ing a bill. which will rob chil dren of proper food and cloth ing, can hardly be called a "worthy cause.'" Gentleman from Bonanza, did you ever read the Townsend- McOroarty bill? It states there that the transaction tax collec tions shall be used only for pay ing the pensions and administer ing the plan. How, then, will this pay off the national .debt? Besides, we pointed out in a re cent article, that the total trans action taxes, while overburdon ing certain communities and all men of limited Income, , still will not be sufficient to pay $200 monthly pensions to eight mil lion annulnts. Economist Doane's figures compiled for Dr. Town- send proves this, and recently MeGroarty, Townsond's prospec tive president, admitted this in congress. 1 ' So, how Is the tax burden to be relieved? According to Town send figures it will be Increased from 19 to 24 billion dollars more than it Is at the present time,' and . a common laborer RED THE ROSE" would have to got $11 a day to pay this extra lax bunion ami live na ho lives now. is this In crease In wages posallila? llnwT Deducing the purchasing power 10 to ao par cent ol 111 per rent of the pvoplu and pluclng this nurolinstug power III the liundi of I per cent u( the people can not stimulate business or In oi'ouae wages.
