CH KILLS
Cave-In of a bank In a gravel
pit near Bly resulted In the
death Tuesday afternoon of
George W. Klnkead. 89, an em
ploye of the Crane Lumber com'
pany at Bly.
According to Dr George H.
Adler. coroner, Kinkead and
John Dlllavou, another Crane
employe, took a dump truck to
the gravel nit a mile east 01 ttiy
The two men were loading
the truck when the bank gave
away, dirt and rock rolling down
toward the truck.
DiUavou got out of the way,
and then went around the truck
to see how Kinkead had fared.
Kinkead had disappeared, and
Dlllavou could see only a piece
of his shirt protruding from the
pile of debris. He quickly un
covered Kinkead and found him
dead. His head was crushed.
Kinkead's shovel was several
feet away from him, and he may
have been sitting down for a
rest when the bank gave away,
Dr. Adler said.

JAPANESE EXECUTE
(Continued From Page One)
capture.'trial and severe punish
ment of those Americans.
Continued endeavor was made
to obtain confirmation and it
was not until March 12, 1943
that this government received
the communication given by the
Japanese government stating
that these Americans had in fact
been tried and that the death
penalty had been pronounced.
"Soma" Executed
'It was further stated that the
death penalty was commuted
for some" the president said,
"but that the sentence of death
had been applied to others."
The war department's detail
ed description of the American
bombing of Tokyo disclosed that
eight of the American fliers
were prisoners or were pre
sumed to be prisoners of Japan.
The president's statement, ex
pressing a feeling of deepest hor
ror which he said was shared by
all civilized peoples, did not say
how many of the prisoners had
been executed.
"Frlghtfulness"
"This recourse by our enemies
to Rightfulness is barbarous,"
the president said. "The effort
of the Japanese war lords thus
to intimidate us will .utterly
fail. It will make the Ameri
can people more determined
than ever to blot out the shame
less militarism of Japan."
. Stating he had Instructed the
?tate department to make pub
lic the text of its note of protest,
the president said that in this
communication the United States
has informed Japan that the
American government "will
hold personally and officially
responsible for these diabolical
crimes all of those officers of the
Japanese government who have
participated therein and will in
due course bring those officers
to. Justice."

FDLKES' TRIAL
JURY BEGINS
DELIBERATIONS
(Continued From Page One)
if the jurors ascertained that the
evidence showed Folkes was in
toxicated, this should be weigh
ed. But he stressed that Intoxi
cation does not excuse a crime.
"Intoxication, in the main,"
he said, "should be weighed in
deciding the degree of guilt.
Sympathies Warned
The court warned the Jury
against permitting the sympa
thies, sentiment and public ap
proval or disapproval to sway
you in reaching a verdict,"
Folkes remained Impassive,
seemingly bored, during the
court s instructions.
Wilbur Brinson, the slain wo
man's father, and her widower,
Ensign Richard F. James, were
in the courtroom when the jury
retired. Neither showed visible
emotion.

been raided a maximum of 13
times in one day April 15.
Since the beginning of the
aerial offensive to smash Japan
ese installations there, the Alcu
tians command has raided Kiska
137 times. The offensive began
March 1. and since April 1, 103
raids have been made.
There still was no evidence
from the navy, however, bearing
on the effectiveness of these as
saults in demolishing Japanese
installations and delaying or
preventing the enemy from turn
ing the island into an air base,
(Continued From Page One)
cautioned against a let-down in
the campaign.
Goal for the Hitler birthday
celebration was $250,000, and
when the reports were all in the
total exceeded that budget by
33 per cent. Of the total raised,
$185,625 came through a radio
auction of the rooster, Captain
Jack, conducted by the junior
chamber of commerce.
Two largest buys of the birth
day event were $100,000 by the
Klamath Indians and $75,000
by Klamath county, the latter
counting on the- Captain Jack
auction.
"We challenge any city in the
state outside of Portland to
equal Tuesday's record of bond
sales, topped off by the radio
auction," said A. M. Collier, war
finance co-chairman.
He said the results of the auc
tion far outstripped expecta
tions, with an average of $4100
per minute for the 45-minute
show. The percentage of small
bonds, he said, was particularly
gratifying.
Captain Jack, the rooster, is
now "worth ' $547,800 in bond
sales.
The junior chamber not only
sponsored and produced the
radio show, but supported it
with bids from 16 members to
taling $1725 in bonds. Troy V.
Cook was chairman of the
broadcast committee. Paul Lee
handled publicity, and -Don
Statham and Jerry Thomas
worked at the microphones with
Colonel Swigart as auctioneer.
A list of the auction buyers
and a picture appear on page 3.

They left Monterrey late last
night after interrupting a lavish
seven-course banquet to deliver
radio addresses to the world. If
there were any important prob
lems providing a backdrop for
their talks, the speeches failed
to yield any clue to them or to
the real reason for their historic
meeting.
Difference!
In their speeches last night
they spoke of differences be
tween thoir two governments
which already have beon solved,
of a joint solidarity in arms in a
world at war, and of the values,
now and for the future, of the
good neighbor policy.
They dealt strictly In generali
ties and words of friendship and
Mr. Roosevelt promised that
"the government of the United
States and my countrymen are
ready to help" Mexico toward
greater progress toward "tho
greatest possible measure of se
curity Hiid opportunity." He re
ferred to the I53110 now apparent
ly dead, created by Mexican ex
propriation of American-owned
oil lands.
Mr. Roosevelt declared with
studied emphasis:
"We recognize a mutual inter
dependence of our joint re
sources. We know that Mexico's
resources will be developed for
the common good of humanity.
We know that the day of the ex
ploitation of the resources and
the people of OHe country for the
benefit of any group in another
country is definitely over."
TO
OFFICE IN S. F,
Western problems differ from
those problems which face east
coast residents, and the war pro
duction board is now establish
ing an office in San Francisco to
better serve this part of the
country, according to informa
tion brought to Klamath Falls
by Ruth Olds Bathiany, city
treasurer, who returned Tues
day night from Portland.
Maury Maverick, Texas, with
a staff of priorities experts, met
with representatives "from
every corner of the state of Ore
gon," in the Portland city coun
cil chambers. For three days
the experts listened to western
complaints, chiefly the misun
derstanding of western needs as
viewed through Washington
eyes. From Portland the men
continued to Seattle where they
will meet with Washington state
and local officials.
Maverick urged small cities to
iron out their own small priori
ties problems, inasmuch as the
war centers were faced with
greater difficulties. Mrs. Bathi
any observed that Klamath
Falls has no such problems as
beset the war towns such as
Portland, Vancouver, Seattle
and other northwest cities.

The lust previous British raid
on Rostock was April 26, 1942,
when it was bombed for tho
fourth night in a row. At thai
time fires wcro set that were
seen 230 miles away and tho cen
ter of the city was reduced to a
heap of ashes.
Stettin, which is the port for
Berlin, was last bombed by tho
RAF September 30, 1941, and
harbor installations, an oil refin
ery and factories were severely
damaged. The red army air force
also raided Stettin, along with

Truancy is giving juvenile
authorities their newest head
ache, and spring fever, warm

Juvenile Officer Dave Bridge.
Girls seem to be chief offend

and to be especially careful of

In two regards, the saga o(
the trip from l'tigut sound to
Durban, South Africa, parallel,
ed the famed story of "Mutiny
on the Bounty." Pllcalm island
figured In both dramas. The
Commodore put in there and
picked up a few chickens to
vary the ure.
The crew took over from the
captain before reaching Capo
Horn, Gallagher suld, after tha
mate called for a vote of the
crew members bromine of the
skipper's alrnugo ucllons. He
said a military court later clear
ed the crew of mutiny charges
mado by llio captain,
"Wa kept him In his cabin
for a month," the suamuii re
lated. "The captain was a good
soaman, but he went out of hit
head."
The schooner "began leaking
a couple of weeks before we
rounded Cape Horn," Gnllughrr
said, "and after that we stood
up to the hips In water in her
hold and pumped by hand, day
and night. The captain got sick
at about tho same tlmo. We
didn't know what was the mat
tor then, but later, when he
died in Durban, the doctor said
he had a brain tumor."
Gallagher said ho left Africa
In February while tho crew
members' suit for most of their
pay was still pending. The Com
modore had been sold at auc
