Pendleton, Ore., the airline states, is a city comparable to Klamath Falls, and it averages 180 pounds of airmail and 25 pounds of air express on and off daily. In their study, the United as serts, the CAB examiners used 1930 traffic figures in estimating passenger revenue from Klam ath Falls at $25,500. No consid eration was given, it was claim ed, to increases of 1840 over 1939, or 1941 over 1940. "11 credit were given for this in crease, the estimate of passenger revenue would be more than that anticipated on the basis of the 1939 figures and consequent ly an excess of cost over revenue would be reduced considerably if not entirely eliminated." Numerous other points were made by the United, which ap pended to its report exhibits showing hotel registrations and business concerns in Klamath Falls. Final decision of the CAB on the Klamath application is not expected until late in the month or sometime next month. ON PMI STRIPS Members of the city council are deeply concerned over the question of permitting automo bile parking in the so-called "parking strips" between side walks and curbs in front of private property. Mayor John Houston told the council members this week that the city attorney had informed him the city has legal authority to control use of these strips foi parking, and said the coun cil should adopt some definite principle in connection with the problem. The mayor said that there are cases in which use of the park ing strips for parking is con venient, but that in many in stances the beauty of a street is marred by deep ruts and mud holes in these strips, caused by car parking there. He said that landscaped parkings add much to the appearance and pleasing atmosphere of the city. Use of the parking strip on Eleventh street in front of '.the Reclamation bureau's property as a place to park is being cur rently considered by the coun cil. Councilman Bussman, head of the street committee, recom mended that parking on the strip be permitted, inasmuch as parking is not there permitted on the street proper because it is so narrow and well-traveled. He recommended that the curbs be painted to keep open the en trances Into reclamation pro perty. The council deferred action on his recommendation, until the whole problem can be more thoroughly discussed and a broad principle adopted. It was pointed out that in some eases, parkings had been improved with gravel or paving for use as automobile parking space. In such instances, eoun ellmen said, parking ears there is much less obnoxious. Jackson School Principal Fined On Traffic Counts Ray Barton Parr, said to be a school principal at Talent, in Jackson county, was fined a total of S150 on two traffic charges in Justice of the Peace Joseph Mahoney court State police arrested Parr after his ear allegedly struck a parked car near the county Jail at Third street and Klamath venue, and proceeded without topping. On a reckless driving charge, Parr was fined $100, of which 125 was suspended. On a charge of failure to stop after an accident, he was fined $50, with $23 suspended.

MMJGSMRl CDUNCILKILLS BARBER E Faced with possible requests for closing and opening regula tions from other types of busi ness, the city council last night rejected amendments to the decade-old barber shop hours ordi nance. Rejection came on a 4 to 1 vote when the amendments came up for final action. The development came as a surprise, inasmuch as the coun cil two weeks ago had voted to amend the ordinance as request ed by the barbers. After that vote, the formal amendments were prepared and it was when they came up for final pasage that the ordinance hit a snag. After the final reading of the amendments. Councilman Wies endanger informed the council that petitions for like ordinances for groceries and clothing stores were being considered. After a moment's discussion, the vote was polled on the amendment to the hours ordin ance. Councilman Keller, the first to vote, balloted yes. In turn, Councilmen Cantrall, Buss man, Weisendangcr and Martin voted no. Mayor Houston asked the councilmen the reason for their change of atitude on the ordi nance. Cantrall asserted: "I don't think the council should be asked to enforce regu lations for businesses they can't enforce for themselves." Councilman Bussman said that he had indicated his attitude when the hours ordinance was first proposed. Mayor Houston then said he was not objecting to the council men voting as they saw fit on any matter, but he thought it unfor. tunate the action on the barber osdinance was taken at a late date after the ordinance had been prepared. "We should have had it all settled a couple of weeks ago," said the mayor. The action of the council merely rejected the amendments, which would have changed the barber shop ordinance to require closing at 6 p. m., instead of 9 p. m., on Saturday nights and nights before holidays, The original ordinance still stands. Saturday night 8 o'clock bar. ber shop closing is scheduled to go into effect next week, under an agreement between master and journeyman barbers recent ly announced. The action of the city council will not necessarily affect the union agreement or the decision to close at 8 p. m.. it is understood. The council's apparent atti tude was to keep hands off and let the barbers make and ob serve their own agreements. Mayor Houston declared at' Monday night's meeting that he believes Klamath Falls should go after the location of an army air squadron at the airport here, and he. was voted full support of the council In anything he un dertakes along that line. The mayor mentioned, specifi cally, the possible location of a bombing base. "I'm going to call the airport committee together, and anyone else who has any ideas as to how we should go about this enterprise," . said the mayor. He mentioned the possible permanency and higher pay of the men in an aviation squad ron and said such a squadron would be a real boost to Klam ath Falls and to local aviation. The council approved the em ployment of Henry Perkins as legal counsel in the handling of the condemnation suit against Kelly brothers, for the acquisi tion of property for the airport. It was explained that City Atorney D. E. Van Vector is heavily pressed with work and will handle one of the condemna tion suits, with Perkins handling the other. Perkins gets a retainer fee of $150 and will receive an other $100 if the suit actually goes to trial.

Newberry company to settle the Culinary alliance strike at the Newberry lunch counter has been turned down and pickets still march boforo the Minn street establishment, Allianco Secretary G. C. Tatniun suld Tuesday. The company has been oper ating since Saturday with non union help following calling of the strike upon the firms re fusal to agree to a BO-cent per day wage boost. According to Tatniun, the Nowberry management has of fered to accept all provisions of the union contract if the woman foreman and part-time cook at the lunch counter is not listed as cook on the alliance member ship rolls, but as a manager. Both the union and ' seven union employes of the firm out on strike have refused to ac cept, according to the veteran labor leader. Alliance rules de mand that, to be classed as a supervisor and therefore be ex empt from union pay scales, an employe must be one of the sign ers of the contract. I. J. Olson, local Newberry manager, had no comment to make on this latest development, saying the entire matter was in the hands ol tho main office at Los Angeles.
