Oregon Airways will press
vigorously for approval of its ap
plication for an air line Into
Klamath Falls via central Ore
gon points, H. E. Stearns, head
of the company, declared on a
visit here Thursday.
On September SO, in Washing
ton, D. C, the applications of
Oregon Airways, United Air
lines and Nick Bex will be con
solidated for hearing. All of
them want to start sir service
into. Klamath Falls.
Stearns claimed that his com'
pany has pioneered the way and
is responsible for getting the
hearing set for September 30.
"We are the only strictly Ore
gon outfit applying, said
Stearns. "For that reason, we
have received assurances of sup
port from Oregon's senators and
representatives in Washington.
Stearns said his operation, if
approved, would run between
Klamath Falls and Portland via
North Dalles, Bend, Prineville
and Redmond. Central Oregon
points, he said, are giving him
strong backing.
Some months ago Steams'
company started daily service in
to Klamath Falls. It was discon
tinued, Stearns said, pending
government approval.
Stearns was accompanied here
by T. T. Hinman, who is af
filiated with his company.
British Censor
Time of Raids
WASHINGTON, Sept 19 UP)
Reports circulated anew 'today
that Great Britain had made in
quiries about the possibility of
obtaining some of the army's
long range B-17 bombing planes.
The British were said to have
asked if they could have some
of the -99 bombers of that type
now In service, particularly the
older models, or If they could
take over some of the army's
current order for Improved types
of the plane. ' The improved
ships are credited with a speed
in excess of 300 miles an hour
and a range of more than 3000
miles. .
Anglo-American
Union Discussed
LONDON, Sept. 19 (P) CI
ment R. Atlee, lord privy seal,
assured the house of commons
today that the members will
have opportunity for the fullest
discussion "before any union of
the kind proposed to Franc, is
put forward in regard to the
United States."

armistice with Germany it was
announced Prime Minister
Churchill had proposed a form
of British-French union with
common citizenship.
Churchill is preparing to give
such assurance of discussion if
ever such a far reaching scheme
were put forward, Atlee said.

The Oregon Bank and
Trust company 'compromise
settlement" on stockholders as
sessments was legally effected
through Circuit Judge Edward
B. Ashurst's court Thursday.
Under terms of the comprom
ise, stockholders of the defunct
banking company who have paid
100 per cent of their assess
ments, are refunded 29 per cent.
A. A. Rogers, superintendent of
state banks, came to Klamath
Falls a few weeks ago to discuss
with depositors the proposal for
this compromise.
After the bank s doors closed
In 1933, the state superintendent
of banks levied an assessment of
$100 a share on stockholders un
der a law since held unconstitu
tional and void.
In 1939, the state superintend
ent levied a second assessment
after finding that the assets of
the institution lacked $77,064
of meeting deposit liabilities.
Since ' then, liquidation has
proceeded and more has been
realized on assets than had been
expected. It has been found that
an assessment of $68 a share
would have paid off the liabilities.
To end litigation which has
been started in the case and
bring the liquidation nearer con
clusion, the compromise was
agreed upon. Under stipulations
filed In Judge Ashursts court
Thursday the banking superin
tendent will retain all principal
amounts paid by the stockhold
ers in 1933 and credit these
amounts against their liabilities
for 1939. Where stockholders
have paid 100 per cent of. as
sessments, a refund of 23 per
cent Is granted.
R. C. Groesbeck and Harold
Merryman and J. H. Napier rep
resented various stockholders in
the case. J. S. Graham repre
sented the banking superintendent

Former Governor Judd of
Hawaii Says Mainlanders
Should Know More of Isles
Witnesses for the eontestee In
the Tule lake homestead case of
Wilford Dixon versus Albert
Schlndler were put on the stand
Wednesday and testified Schlnd
ler had resided on the land in
accordance with homestead laws.
It was also claimed he had had
made improvements on the prop
erty amounting to approximate
ly $4000. Many of the witnesses
were neighboring homesteaders.
The case, in which Dixon con
tends Schlndler has not fulfilled
requirements for. ownership of
the homestesd Involved, Is being
conducted by U. S. Commissioner
Bert C. Thomas.
Schlndler himself took the
stand near the close of yester
day's hearing and was expected
to finish his testimony Thursday.
The case will be decided by
the federal land office.
State Leaders Coming Elmer !
Goudy, secretary of the state wel- i
fare commission; Mrs. Los How
ard, director of social work, and
Gordon Manser, field represen-;
'tative, will be here Friday on an
official visit at the Klamath
county welfare offices.
Oa Vacation Margaret West,
employed at the Klamath Copco
offices, is on vacation this week.
Mainlanders ought to know
more about Hawaii, said former
Governor Lawrence Judd of the
famed offshore territory on a
visit to Klamuth Falls Thursday.
Here to address the Rotary club
Friday, Governor Judd with
Mrs. Judd was a guest at the
home of Mr. and Mrs. R. R.
Macartney. !
"It is a curious circumstance,
said Judd, "that mainlanders
know so much about their off
shore territory of Hawaii and yet
so little. Even our children sing
her songs, yet few of them know
her place in United States his
tory. For that matter, only a
small percentage of their parents
seem aware that here is United
States soil, not merely by reason
of annexation as a territory In
1898, but by virtue of more than
a century of rich United states
tradition.
"All the epie unities of our
country's early history are there:
A virgin land; a handful of New
England pioneers crossing an
ocean to found a new home;
hardship, indomitable courage
and limitless energy; the devel
opment of agriculture and indus
try from primitive beginnings In
the American way; the steady In
filtration of American institu
tions into the existing body poll
tic; and finally, the end result,
a commonwealth of the United
States which Is an tndustrlnl and
military stronghold of vital Im
portance to th. nation, and, in
th. temper of its citizenship, a
striking demonstration of ill.
virility of American Ideals.
"Measuring her achievements,
one wonders that sho still re
mains a territory. She pays
more taxes into the federul trea
sury than any one of fourteen
of the states. She produces one
sixth of the nation's supply of
sugar, and adds $200,000,000 a
year to its domestic trade.
"She is not only the cross
roads of trans-Paclflc commerce
by water, but the Indispensable
pivot of transport by air. As Im
pregnable as she Is, she is price
less iruoraiice to national secur
ity. "One can understand why the
people of Hawaii look steadfastly
forward to recognition of these
facts In the not distant future by
the ultimate reward the star of
statehood. In the meantime Ha
waii should be accorded com
plete economic, Industrial and
political parity with the rest of
the nation, of which she Is an Im
portant integral part."
