PAGE TWO THE NEWS AND THE HERALD, KLAMATH FALLS, ORE. January 28, IfMt COUNCIL GETS AIRPORT PLAN OFF TO START (Continued From Page One) the city nd in the suburban area. The Dlan proposed by the council was to obtain gravel prison labor and equipment from the county on a cost basis, but Commissioner Bcnner ad vised the meeting that the coun ty court was not sure of its legal right to allow such ac tion In view of a state law for bidding expenditure of county fundi on any but county roads. A ruling is being sought at the present time on a plan used by the county for some time, sim ilar to the city's proposal. "Black Rain" Studied A committee appointed by Mayor Houston will meet with the court to seek further de velopment of the plan. A committee consisting of the council, the mayor and Fire Chief Keith Ambrose will meet with operators or engineers of various plants in Klamath Falls to study the soot, or "black rain" problem, acting on a sug . gestion of the planning commis Ion. Juvenile Officer David Bridge appeared before the council to ask enforcement of a curfew law for Klamath Falls. The . present law requires all minors under 16 years of age to remain off the streets after 9 p. m., but it was the feeling of the council that time should be changed to 10 p. m. to allow for legitimate entertainment at theatres, skat ing rinks and the like. A re port was asked for the next council meeting. Two other problems were as signed to committees for closing action. Petition signers and in terested persons were ordered invited to a meeting to discuss improvement of the center strip . on Pacific Terrace, and a study was ordered to see if an agree i ment could be inserted in the Kennel club franchise to handle the job of disposing of dead animals. Besides accepting reports of the city treasurer and city meat ' and dairy inspector, the council approved the bid of Winnie Hoak for providing meals for city prisoners, but rejected a California Oregon Power com pany bill for changing wiring for the fire alarm system. Derid ing reconciliation of the $580 bill and the $250 estimate given ine city previously.

A move to repeal all property tax exemptions was brewing in the house assessment and taxa tion committee, which held up approval of a measure extending exemption to parsonages. Rep. Giles French (R-Sher-man) said he objected to further tax exemptions, and favored cancelling all exemptions except those affecting federal property. The house passed three bills and sent them to the senate. One would provide that courts shall assume that in caes where a man and wife died in an acci dent, they shall be presumed to have died at the same time. Un der existing law, the man is pre sumed to have died last, hence the man's descendants obtain the estate. BIG STICK INDIANAPOLIS (P) Police man Charles O'Donnell caught a man with his club.
