EIGHT HERALD AND NEWS DEPARTMENTS FIX BUDGETS AU city departments will be requested to submit budgets be fore Friday in keeping with the state budget law, it was decided at the Monday night meeting of the city council. The decision specifically af fects the park board and the rec reation committee, two groups which heretofore have not pre sented budgets. Councilman Rollin Cantrall presented the matter to the group last night. "Almost Mandatory" ; "I think our state budget law as amended mBkes it almost mandatory to set up as a budget expenditure any amount we might want to spend from a re serve or sinking fund," Cantrall "Take the case of the airport for an example. We have $2500 in the sinking fund for the air port. This year, we are budget ing $1000. At the end of the fiscal year there will be $3500 in this fund and it only gives authority to spend $1000. We should have an opinion of the city attorney post nasie xo gei budgets of the park board and recreation committee by Fri day." The council agreed that this would be an excellent procedure and would then bring all depart ments into the budget fold. Resort Accepted ' On motion of Councilman Paul O. Landry, a report from Cantrall on the state board of aeronautics session in Medford last Tuesday, was accepted and referred to the aviation commit tee for further study. The question is whether or not the airport committee should recommend that the coun cil and citizens interested in aviation, write letters to their congressmen urging support of several federal, bills contemplat ed at this time. The bills pro vide matching funds that would be appropriated by various states for the acquisition, con struction, development and maintenance of airports, either municipal, county, private or any others. Referred The matter of commercial signs in the city limits will be referred to the city planning commission for survey. Cantrall suggested a revision of the zon ing ordinance to make property more desirable. William F. McKibbin, repre senting the American Legion, Post No. 8, asked the council for use of city owned property dele gated for post-war recreation purposes, and sought now by the six junior baseball teams spon sored by: the Legion. Property involved includes one piece across from Joseph Conger school, and block 118, Mills ad dition. Matter Referred ..The matter was referred to the recreation committee with authority to grant the request. The council adopted a resolu tion in regard to the county-city jail permitting the mayor and pouce juage to assign an option on property to Klamath county. The resolution reads: "That the city assign the option on said premises to Klamath county, given so that Klamath county can proceed to purchase the property after which one-third interest thereon will be repur chased by the city of Klamath Falls and a joint county-city jail be constructed on the property." Property includes 104 feet facing Klamath avenue between 2nd and 3rd, and is 255 feet deep, according to Police Judge Harold Franey. Election Void City Attorney Henry Perkins advised the council in written form that the south suburban an nexation on the June election ballot was now void, due to the emergency clause on senate Dill 121 and signed by the governor on March 26, 1945. The bill calls for petitions signed by 25 per cent of the electors in the tract to be annexed. Perkins explained that this iniormation usually reaches city officials in June and his office had not been advised of the emergency clause on the bill. on motion of Councilman Landry, the citv hall will ho closed Wednesday, Memorial way.

Action taken By the city coun cil last night, at which time an ordinance was amended to read "all milk brought into the city of Klamath Falls," involves some 39,000 gallons of milk con sumed bv four military installa tions in this area, but outside the city limits. Dr. J. Calvin Hunt, city meat and milk inspector, advised the council that any milk pasteur ized outside the city, such as milk purchased and pasteurized in Medford, would not come un der local control.

May 29 P The United Mine Workers Jour nal declared today that Secre tary of Labor Perkins, who is eivine ud her cabinet post to Judge Lewis B. Schwellenbach, performed her tasks "migniy well." The journal, official organ of John L. Lewis' United Mine Workers, said President Truman had made "a wise selection" in appointing the Washington state jurist and former United States senator. "Secretary Perkins inherited a mess," said the journal. "Dur ing her tenure of office, many laws were passed which changed the game of our industrial rela tions. She had to withstand the onslaught of labor leadership's criticism and that of the pirates of big business, as well as the political 'biggies'. "We hope that Judge Schwel lenbach has had an understand ing with President Truman to revamp the department of labor and bring within its fold those functions of government that dis tinctly belong to it.

Moy 20 (VP) After only 15 minutes de liberation, a circuit court jury today had upheld the right of Masayuki Fujimoto, rolurncd Japanese-American evacuee, to repossess a 80-acro tract leased to white farmers In 1942.
