all THE NEWS AND THE HERALD. KLAMATH FALLS. OREGON May m. 1i)4f PAGE TWO III I OF! S DISCUSSION on WAIVER OF FEE Prolonged discussion over pos- lible waiver of the Recreation tark license fee for a circus late his month end over the new tate "club law" for restaurants elllng liquor service featured a cdious meeting of the city coun ill Monday night. In tlio park matter, brought ip on application of the Klamath falls 20-30 club, opinions pro ind con from a largo audience lonsumcd a good share of the ihree and one-half hour session. The club sought the use of the jark May 27 and 28 for the club iponsored Pollack Brothers, cir , jus, proceeds of .which . will be iurned over to the organization's milk fund. (Tuesday morning the circus innounced that its show would Be presented at the Klamath tounty fairgrounds). Sam Goldstein, speaking for the youth group, asked that the flOO-per-night fee be waived so is to allow as much as possible of the revenue to be turned over to the fund. He said the club had signed a contract with the cir cus whereby it was to receive 15 per cent of the gross and out of which It was to pay lor ugnia and park rental. Supported Goldstein argued the city would benefit by the milk fund, the more so if the $200 fee was waived. He was supported by R. G. Pollack of the circus and sev eral members of the 20-30 club. Mrs. Rose Poole, a member of the audience, maintained such action would set a bad precedent for succeeding shows. Her com ments drew affirmation from several councilmen. Councilman W. E.

Anothorstickler was the ques tion of whether the show would be over by the 9:30 curfew time recently set to placate nearby property owners. Pollack said this could be arranged. General feeling was that the council was wholly in favor of the 20-30 project but was hesit ant about waiving the fee for fear of setting a precedent for' the future. The matter was finally referred to the council as a whole. "Club Law Confusion predominated on the Issue of the restaurant "club law." The new law requires a license for establishments giving service in the way of mixers, ice, glasses, etc., to patrons bringing their liquor for mixing purposes and also assesses penalties on operators if liquor is brought in to places without the new license. It also provides that local option be exercised In the matter of the yearly fee. A fee has not yet been set 'for Klamath Falls. Mrs. Aivs McConnell of the Pelican grill, Harry Molatore of Molatore's and Jack Hershber ger of Hershberger's restaurant, all of whom may be affected by the ruling, were in the audience and spoke before the council. All indicated they had applied or would apply for a license if the fee was not too high. The council decided to issue the licenses fee-free until 1942 by which time it was felt an exper ience basis would provide for more concrete action. " Councilmen voted to accept the offer of Kelly brothers for 21 acres of land needed for the Klamath airport expansion, granted the Marine corps tem porary right to place a signboard before their new recruiting office at 731 Main, and granted the Pelican baseball club permission to erect three direction signs to Recreation park. Glenn Kent, president of the Klamath Creamery asked that the council take action on the sunken lot next to the creamery, maintaining it constituted a men ace to public health and safety as it now stands. This was re ferred to the Sanitary commis sion. An application for use of the council chamber by the National Labor Relations board, one by the AFL for permission to oper ate a public address system, and another by the Buckaroo Days committee for poster rights were referred to the council as a whole. A complaint against the Peyton wood yard in the Buena Vista ad dition was'ilso, r'eferd to the council as a whole., C Q.

Duff Cooper referred to the notorious "blood purge" In which Hess helped execute Hit ler's orders. Countering German assertions that Hess was mentally ill, the British pointed out that for a "madman" he made an adroit job of flying the 800 miles from Germany to Scotland and ball ing out when he failed to sight a landing place for his Messer schmitt in the darkness. The plane's fighting guns were not loaded. An official nazi party com munque declared: "Hess appears to have lived under the hallucination that ha was still able to bring about an understanding between Ger many and England through per sonal action with old English acquaintances." The British said flatly that Hitler's long-time boon friend and No. 2 choice for the fuehrer ship In the event of Hitler's death had brought no suggestion of peace. The purpose of his flight re mained as deep a mystery as ever, although the British seiz ed on the incident as evidence of a rift In nazi leadership. Amid a flood of rumors, word circulated at Glasgow that Hess brought important information about the German air force which he wanted to communi cate to the British. Authoritative quarters In London said Hess' flight from the reich was the act of a sane man and added cryptically that it was carried out In defiance of German authority. These quarters said Hess brought no peace terms, and de clared Hitler's deputy knew that If he had gone to a neutral country Instead of parachuting onto a Scottish moor as he did last Saturday night he would have been in danger of being "bumped off" by nazi agents.

On May 11 and 12, one car each was shipped out by Chrt Bar ton with an additional four cars leaving Tuesday for tho south from Barton's Merrill cellars. The potatoes must be placed in wooden boxes due to ship ping conditions and since boxes have been used the spuds ar rive in excellent shape, Aubrey said.

Govern ment officials hope to continue the use of last year's output until June before they start in on the new crop. All locnl po tatoes used aro Netted Gems, it was learned. The army and navy orders this season have been a boon to potato growers as several hundred carloads have been shipped out this sea son, many to cantonments at Camp Lewis and Vancouver, Wash., and to California points. The better stock Is selling around 90 cents per 100 pounds to the growers, and "not 30 good" stock comes a little low er, it was learned from Aubrey. .
