a picnic at Moore park on Thurs
day evening, starting ai o:au
o'clock. There will bo no regu
lar meeting of the club at noon

E
An Increase in expenditure
for public welfare in Klamath
county during the coming two
year period over that of tho past
biennium has been estimated by
the county welfare commission,
it was revealed today by Mrs.
Altha Urquhart, administrator of
the commission.
The proposed budget, which
covers the period from June 30,
1945 to July 1, 1947, was sub
mitted for approval to the state
welfare commission as follows:
old age assistance, $225,000; aid
to dependent children, $62,000;
blind aid. $7500: general assist
ance, $150,000. These, figures
represent the total cost of pub
lic aid in the county, to be taken
from federal, state, and county
sources, except for general as'
sistance, which is financed by
state and county only..
The commission based its esti
mate on present expenditures in
these programs, taking into con
sideration accelerated cost . in
caring for cases, current trends.
and local factors.

here on a statutory rape charge,
was brought back to Klamath

awaiting grand jury action last
fall, jumped his $1000 bail and
left this locality.' Following the
defendant's indictment by the
grand jury, Circuit Judge David
R. Vandenberg issued a bench
warrant for Anderson's arrest.
Local authorities recently
learned of the wanted man's
whereabouts and notified Eure
ka officers who picked up An
derson. The man Is accused of the
rape of his 15-year-old niece,
who was staying at his home at
the time of the alleged attack.
Anderson last fall was held for
grand jury action by Justice of
the Peace J. A. Mahoney after
a preliminary hearing had been
held for the accused man in jus
tice court.

The Germans said the Turkish

Turkey's severance of ties with
Germany was disclosed by the
Turkish home radio and was con
firmed almost immediately by
Berlin broadcasts.
Requested by Britain
Premier Sukru Saracoglu an
nounced the cabinet's decision to
make the break, telling the na
tional assembly that it had been
requested by Britain, with Unit
ed States support. The assembly
promptly ratified the decision.
Britain had promised Turkey
"economic and financial help
and war equipment," the premier
said,- to meet ine oimcuities
which would arise" from the ac

The break is effective at mid

Speaking before 413 delegates
of the assembly, Saracoglu said
the steD did not mean that Tur
key would enter the war, but
that such a possimuty "would
depend on the attitude of the
other side."
An Informed source In Berlin
was quoted by the German-controlled
Scandinavian telegraph
bureau as saying that Germany
expected "no change In general
military developments" on the
Finnish front.
"It is understandable that the
Finns should want to concen
trate all power in the hands of
