BOLD DIES III

WHINE HELD
(Continued from Pago One)
police in the investigation of
inu case, made the uncsi, anu
later Drougnt Stevens to the dis
trict attorney's office, lor ques
tioning.1 Entered Car
Siscmore said tne investiga
tion indicated that Bold and
btevens met at the cufiaio
lunch on South Sixlh street, and
that Stevens got into Hold's car.
Stevens' story was that Bold
had offered to drive him to the
1 Padre roadhouse at the Mer
rill junction, but that Bold in
stead drove toward town and
stopped behind the Kerns build
ing, Siscmore stated.
Trouble developed between
the two men, and Bold was in
jured. Stevens, the district at
torney said, drove Bold's car
away. That was about 10 p. m.
When Loomls came to work
at Kerns the next morning, he
thought he heard a groan as he
left his car and went inside the
building to build a fire. When
he returned to the car, he dis
covered Bold lying almost un
der the car. Tracks showed that
Loomis, unwittingly, had driven
the car within a few inches
of the unconscious man.
Undecided
Authorities said it had not
been .decided Monday whether
Stevens would be prosecuted by
the state, or the case would be
taken through the military
courts. Investigations have been
launched by both military and
civil authorities, and will in
clude an attempt to learn some
thing of the character of Bold
as it related to the story, told
by the marine, as to the cause
of the trouble between the two
men.
Bold is a native of Germany.
He formerly lived in the Hilde
bra'nd section, but moved some
time ago to a small farm near
Henley. He was unmarried and
his relatives are in Germany. -Post
Mortem
Dr. George H. Adler. coroner,
said that he would conduct a
post-mortem on the body of
Bold. It has not been determ
ined whether he died of injuries
or of exposure resulting from
being left injured for an entire
night in severe weather.
PFC Stevens is a veteran of
the Pacific fighting, here recup
erating from a tropical ailment.
In the Pacific, he received rec
ognition for rescue of a wound
ed American olficer in Japanese
lines., It . is understood his
record shows certain infractions
of disciplinary regulations in
this country. . ..
The investigation, it is under
stood, will be questioning of a
second marine who is reported
to have been with Bold and
Stevens in the car for a while,
but was not present at the time
of the incident behind the Kerns
building.
Authorities said the marine
had made a statement alleging
reasons for provocation for
striking Bold. Deputy District
Attorney Clarence Humble said
today that his investigations, so
far, had discovered nothing in
Bold's background to substan
tiate the allegations, but that
the probe is continuing.
If the case is handled through
state courts, it will probably
come up for trial in January,
after Humble becomes district
attorney. He was elected in No
vember, but is serving as Sise
more's deputy until the first of
the year. Humble is participat
ing actively in the case at this
stage.
Klamath Home
Owners Line Up
For Fuel Quotas
Portland's famous cigarette
qifeues have nothing on Klam
ath Falls ' where home-owners
line up twice weekly to obtain
their much-needed ration of
compressed fuel.
Klamath dealers, obtaining
the fuel from Weyerhaeuser
Timber company, receive their
allotments on Mondays and Fri
days. Each morning cars . are
lined up outside the. dealers'
buildings to collect their ration
of 30 logs. Majority of those
seeking fuel are residents who
have moved here recently and
did not lay in a supply of win
ter wood.
Weyerhaeuser is also releas
ing five units, or 240 logs, daily
at the plant for employes and
other customers.
One Klamath dealer reported
a line of 31 cars at his place of
business last Friday. Monday
the line was slightly shorter,
but not much, he said. .

RE A Position
WASHINGTON, Dec. 11 (P)
Harry Slattery, whose resigna

ministrator was announced by
the White House today, said he
quit "to carry this fight to the
public." -
In a statement, the embattled
veteran of two democratic ad
ministrations, said that Agricul
ture Secretary Wlckard had "by
passed and displaced me as act
ual administrator" with the re
sult that "the situation within
REA has become indefensible
and increasingly intolerable." .
Slattery said the appointment
of a deputy administrator with

effect of displacing him.

They also expressed their deter'
