E. Reedor. Judge Recdcr said that the estimated return to Klamath county is based on 25 per cent of a four-year average of Crater lake receipts. The proposed measure pro vides that 25 per cent of the receipts of a national park be expended for the benefit of the county in which it is located. The measure also applies to national monuments within na tional park service jurisdiction, and presumably would benefit Modoc county. In which too Lava Beds monument is located.
