CO' s Appeal in
Behalf of Weber
LAPINE, Ore., Feb. 10 VP)
An appeal to halt the "cruel
and unjust" sentence given Pvt.
Henry Weber by army court
martial for refusing to drill was
en route to President Roosevelt
today from 50 inmates of a con
scientious objectors' camp here.
. The signed petition originally
opposed the death sentence or
dered for the Vancouver. Wash.,
soldier but it was altered to
term the substituted life im
prisonment too severe.
The letter said other men
have refused to bear arms after
induction, as Weber did, and
are in conscientious objectors'
camns. Weber, sentenced at
Camp Roberts, Calif., claims
that he consistently told his
draft board and induction of
ficials that his beliefs would
not permit him to kill.

Across From Montgomery Ward on North 9th
During the first week of
operation, 104 families made ap
plication for housing at the
homes registration office in the
Klamath county chamber of com
merce. During tliis same period,
lislina bv nronerty owners and
managers hnve consisted of six
cottages, three of which are not
modern, one apartment and 10
rooms In private homes or room
ing houses.
"We extend our thanks to
those who have so willingly co
operated with the homes regis
tration office thus far," Charles
R. Stark, executive secretary of
the chamber of commerce stated
today, "but -it is obvious that
there Is not a satisfactory ratio
between living accommodations
needed and thoso available.
More listings are urgently need
ed." The homes registration office
was established under the aus
pices of the government's nation
al housing agency in order to di
rect a concerted effort toward
obtaining all types of accommo
dations for newcomers to Klam
ath Falls.
In addition to regular rentals.
the HRO urges the listing of ex
tra rooms in private homes
which can be made available but
have not been rented in the past.
Dwellings listed with the HRO
are referred to persons who have
been waiting the longest time
and whose needs most fairly fit
the accommodations available,
according to the filed application
cards.
The service Is free to both the
renter and tenant and the land
lord's right to choose his tenant
is not transgressed. When tho
landlord makes his listing, he is i
urged to state any special quali
fications his tenant must have,
and as far as possible, the appli
cant is interviewed to that end,
but the homes registration office
cannot be entirely responsible
for any individual sent and the
final decision rests with the land-
lord.
Vacancies may be listed bv
mail, in person, or by phoning

ber of commerce, 323 Main.
