Sol Wirth is president of the club and Herbert Barry is secretary. There are about 20 members In the club at the pre sent time. It will take approximately two weeks to clear all regula tions on the proposed project, said Wirth, and then work on the run will be started. The cabin will probably be built some time this summer, he said. T Governor Earl Sncll of Ore gon has signed extradition papers for Samuel F. Ashwcll, wanted in Klamath Falls to an swer a charge of larceny by bailee. Ashwell is being held in Lordsburg, N. M., and the ex tradition papers have been for warded to the governor of that state. Ashwell, whom Sheriff Lloyd L. Low said had a lengthy crim inal record, is said to have pur chased a Ford from Balsiger Motor company with a $175 check which "bounced." Ash wcll brought the Ford to the ga rage and asked to have it re paired and the garage gave him the use of a 1937 DeSoto while the Ford was being fixed. Ash well is said to have made off with the DeSoto on January 16. He was later picked up at Lordsburg on a warrant from Klamath county. Directors Approve Brief On Water Diversion Plan (Continued From Pago One) which will start at 10 a. m. in the American Legion hall. The hearing will be held by the U. S. engineers who are prepar ing a report to congress on the proposed diversion scheme. To Outline Expansion The chamber report will out line the possibility of a vast expansion of irrigated agricul ture in the basin, which will re quire commensurate increases in he use of water. It will also point out the increasing con sumptive use-of water as agri culturists plant more intensive crops, and the per acre produc tion of these crop increases. The necessity for protecting the water supply for this agricul tural development, particularly during possible periods of ex tended drought, will be empha sized. Owens Valley Example The chamber brief points to the experience of Owens valley in southern California, which lost its water to Los Angeles, as an indication of what can happen to an area when an other area establishes a claim upon its water resources. It is expected the Enterprise irrigation district, through A. M. Thomas, secretary, will make separate representations at the hearing, as will the Indian serv ice and other groups. Landhold ers in the Sprague river area, which would be flooded for a reservoir site under the diver sion program, will probably be heard from. Senator Randolpfl Collier and other members of a California senate investigating committee, will appear at the hearing. Bon neville representatives are ex pected here for the event. Charles Stricklin, Oregon state engineer, has been asked by the chamber to be present. The city of Klamath Falls, through the common council, has prepared a resolution which will be submitted at the Tuesday hearing. The city of Chiloquin has indicated warm interest in the proposal. It has been indicated 'the American Legion is considering signing the chamber's brief or making some other representa tion at the hearing. Klamath's CIO and AFL labor organizations are also under stood to be considering represen tation at the hearing. The chamber sponsored ' a meetine Fridav afternoon at which representatives of inter ested organizations were in formed as to the form and con tent of the land use committee's report. President Malcolm Epley of the chamber presided, and Jenkins, Wales and Ganong dis cussed parts of the report. CENSUS NEARLY COMPLETE SALEM, Feb. 17 (IP) The 1945 federal agricultural census in western Oregon is two-thirds completed, John Kallak, Oregon director of the census, said to SIMPLE AS 1-23 .

We are staying and THUMB ING OUR NOSES at the Jap navy, daring it to come out and fight for its homeland. As this is written, the dare hasn't been accepted. ACCORDING to the enemy, our amphibious forces are invading Iwo Jima, in the Bon ins. We landed in two places, Tokyo radio says. As usual, the Japs say we were thrown back into the eca, most of our war ships sunk, etc. It isn't unlikely that we are invading Iwo Jima, which lies halfway between the Marianas and Japan and serves as an ex tremely useful air warning post, tipping Tokyo off when our B 29s are coming. ""pHE Jap radio even mutters nervously into its beard that we may at any moment attempt a landing on Japan itself and mentions Boso point (east of Tokyo bay) as one of two likely places, the other not being men tioned. , ON the western European front, the Canadians wallow forward through the mud against increasing German resistance. The other SIX allied armies in the west are all relatively quiet today. ON the eastern front, Konev and Zhukov have apparent ly affected a firm junction. The Germans facing them have rushed in new infantry and arm ored reinforcements and are counter-attacking with increas ing energy Moscow dispatches report that the nazis are throwing all kinds of troops Berlin schoolteach ers, policemen, etc. - into the fighting southeast of Berlin and are trying desperately to form a solid line. There have been four days of good air weather, and US and British planes, coming out of the west to hit the German rear, are backing up the Russian attacks, disrupting nazi communications, strafing supply columns, shoot ing up enemy troops on the roads, and so on. - BRESLAU, a city of some 600, 000, has been entirely sur rounded by the advancing Rus sians. Its defenders fight on, as the surrounded Japs in Manila's ancient walled city fight on, without hope, buying delay with their lives. It was thus the surrounded Germans fought in Budapest. In Poznan, back in Poland, long since engulfed by the on rushing Russians, the German garrison still fights on, without hope of rescue, to the final bit ter end. Berlin dispatches today indicate that the final bitter end in Poznan is near. Such is war against INDOC TRINATED peoples.' - : ; . r Ted Shoop Receives Promotion to Captain Lt. Ted E. Shoop, United States army transportation corps, has been promoted to the rank of captain, it was learned here this week. Shoop is sta tioned at Wilmington,' Calif., port of embarkation. In civilian life, Shoop is a member of Shoop and Schulze, Black and White service station. Mrs. Shoop is making her home here while her husband is in the service. ' Committee Appointed To Study Memorials SALEM, Feb. 17 (P) Gover nor Earl Snell today appointed a committee of 17 persons to study the question of erecting "living" war memorials in the state. The governor said prelimin ary suggestions for memorials include swimming pools, athlet ic playgrounds, summer camps for boys and girls, and tennis and basketball courts.

Little Hope Offered Nation's Fag Smokers (Continued From Page One) As far, as. is known, the Bar racks is the first military , in stallation around here to use the ration system. , The cards were issued more than ' three months ago. Figuring on the basis of 3089 men at the Barracks, the pack consumption runs just about 92, 670 per month. Civilian workers at the Barracks are not per mitted to buy their cigarettes at the post exchange. And now to the "I got there first" customer. The civilian who has always ordered his cigarettes by the carton from his grocer. He or she, as the case may be, now prowls Main street and the outlying districts, proudly displaying the day's loot, if any. Civilian smokers will be sur prised to learn that approxi mately 86,400 packages of cig arettes are distributed weekly to various stores in this city. Where do they all go? Distributors say that more people are smoking and more of the old smokers are smoking more! And some buy cigarettes whether they want them or not. Present distribution is one third less than that of December 25, local dealers reported this week, and the situation will be more worse before it gets any better. The early part of the week an OPA announcement was broadcast, advising dealers that all cigarettes for sale had to be displayed on counters. . That threatene'd to end the "stoopy" policy which exists here. No official word has reached local OPA offices, and retailers will continue to put cigarettes under the counter, using the dole sys tem which will keep the shop per on the prowl.
