Launching a program of con

exceeded their goal in many
places and Klamath Falls is one
of those places.
Twenty-five Scouts took part
In a pine and fir planting pro
gram last Saturday under the
direction of T. J. Orr, forester
of the Weyerhaeuser Timber
company. These Scouts, from six
Klamath Falls troops planted
more than three thousand trees

Mr. Orr, were Donald F. McKay,
assistant forester; C. O. Borst
ing, assistant forester; H. H.

Scout executive. Scouts were:
From troop 1 Charles Martin,

ton. From troop 3 Bob Loper,
Bob Willhite, Bob Shaw, Ray
Wilson, Bob Rasmussen, Gaylord
Uppington and Gilbert Einarson.
From troop 4 John Stone,
Glenn Miller, Jim Griggs, Solon

troop 5 Tom Orr, Bill South
well and Leroy Lofdahl. From
troop 8 John McClellan, Walt

a. m. All Scouts must sign up
with their scoutmasters before
reporting for this project, ac
cording to the Scout executive.
This week's project will include
the planting of considerable
"stratafied" Ponderosa pine seed
under the direction of an experi
mental forester. Being a nation
wide project, similar projects are
under way in all parts of the
Modoc; area- council which is
served out of Klamath Falls as

jacent to the property and said
that the bureau of reclamation
had been contacted and that it
was the policy of the bureau to
grant water rights for such pur
poses. Moore park was cited as
such an instance where the city
paid $1 per year for the water.
The councilman also asked
that appreciation be expressed
to R. C. Dale, realtor, for his ef
forts in assisting the committee.
.Actual purchase of the prop
erty will not be made until all
parties are contacted and title
insurance is obtained. :
The matter of the county road
which divides the property, was
discussed and Councilman A. H.
Bussman was definite in de
nouncing the continued use of a
county road through the ceme
tery. He further stated that he
felt a cemetery should be a place
apart, - that it should be sur
rounded by a fence and gates,
and that no traffic be allowed to
go through the property as
would, if the road were used by
Kesterson mill employes.
Upon -this statement by Buss
man, the council 'entered into
discussion, 'weighing the merits
of the water rights as compared
to a county road, and it was fi
nally decided that the county
court would be asked to make
arrangeents to reestablish the
old Whiteline ranch road when
the time came that this step
woula be necessary.
Members of the cemetery com
mittee observed that it would be
a wise policy to let the county re
tain the road through the proper
ty as snow would then be re
moved during the winter months,
and pointed out that the city
has no facilities for such snow
removal.
A satisfactory road program
will be worked out before the
purchase is completed, Mayor
Houston stated..
Members of . the cemetery
committee were commended for
their excellent work by the may
or, and asked to continue serv
ing on' a board with staggering
terms much as the park board
functions, but directly under
city- jurisdiction. .

Fight Launched on
Whiskey "Black
Market" Dealings
WASHINGTON, April 27 (P)
The office of price administra
tion, it was disclosed today, soon
will launch an enforcement pro
gram designed to break up what
is termed a black market in
whisky.
The program, OPA said in a
letter to Rep. May (D-Ky.) who
had complained of the situation
"will include investigation of
and criminal action against any
large operators who are found
to have purchased bulk whisky
at prices in excess of ceilings
and "treble damage suits will be
instituted against the sellers In
the same transactions. '
A $20,000 damage suit, plus
costs and disbursements has been
filed in circuit court against A.
J. McCannel, Chiloquin physi
cian and surgeon, by Mrs. Ed
die Herron, who claims that dur
ing an appendectomy, McCan
nel, besides removing the ap
pendix, also rendered hep in
capable of bearing children.
Mrs. Herron stated in her com
plaint that on April 2 she under
went an "operation for the re
moval of her tonsils and appen
dix. The complaint alleges that
during the surgery, and without
Mrs. Herron's or her husband's
consent, Dr. McCannel removed
and tied certain of her organs,
resulting in her being unable
henceforth to have children. Ed
ward B. Ashurst is attorney for
the plaintiff.
