OB Ausu.1 SO, idosindir eel ot conirm, March 0, X87B Today's Roundup ' Br MALCOLM EPLEY SOME time ago, an architect'i drawing of the proposed city-county jail was shown on tht front page of this newspaper. Immediately, a suoscriDer wrum in iu war plain against expenditure of a considerable sum in construc tion of thii Jail when, it was asserted, there is serious need for n adcauule recreation center here. Today, wo have another let ter along the same line, ob jecting to building a new jail Instead of "using that money for a decent place for children to play or a nice municipal uilmmlntf nnnl " These comments indicate ltl&i heed for refreshing memories about this jail project. - Disgraceful FOR many years, Klamath Falls has main tained a disgraceful jail in the basement of the city hall. It has become virtually rou tine for county grand juries to condemn this jail as insanitary, Inadequate, and legally dangerous for the city. On one occasion years ago voters turned Sown ballot measure to finance a new Jatt, and subsequently an effort failed to get fed eral aid for a jail project. , There then developed a movement for a city-county jail, based on the theory that a joint jail operation would bring law enforcement activities here closer together, eliminate costly duplications, and solve the serious city jail problem. This plan received public support. The county agreed to go in with the city, with the city furnishing one-third ot the cost. On June 22, 1943, at a special election, the voters of Klamath Falls by a good margin endorsed the plan, by authorizing a levy to produce $50,000 for the city-county jail. It is a three-year levy, still in force. Hence, it is plain that the public here has officially authorized the jail program, and use of the funds for any other purpose is not in the cards. Furthermore, we feel sure that any one who investigates the situation will realize the need for a constructive solution of the jail problem here. We are convinced the city county jail program is sound. Recreation Project THIS, however, does not dispose of the argu ment that there Is need for expanded rec reation facilities for the youth of Klamath Falls and the surrounding area. It is a separate matter, though the comparison made by our correspondents is apt. A community which can build a good jail should be able to provide adequately for wholesome recreation for its youth. The movement for a swimming pool and added recreation facilities here is now making headway. Before long, the people who feel so strongly on this matter will undoubtedly have opportunity to support a definite proposal. Bail Set In Theft Case " After a preliminary hearing In justice court this morning, Judge J. A. Manoney tooK uie larceny case of Martin S. Anderson, charced with theft of $680, un der advisement for 48 hours and get Anderson's bail at $1500 cash. Anderson is charged with tak. ing the money from a pocket- book belonging to JU L,. young, operator of a restaurant at Cres cent, March 16, when he was employed at the cafe. Young testified this morning that the money and pocketbook were in a pillow in his room. Anderson was ill that morning and Mrs. Young had him go to bed, getting a pillow for him out of Young's room. The money was in that pillow. Later, when Young missed the money, Anderson was in a pool hall in Crescent where he was heard to say that he had the pocketbook and there was only $100 in it, and that he would give it back to Young. When Young came in, Ander son gave him back the pocket book, empty, and also $100. The other $580 has never been lo cated. Deputy Sheriff Raymond W. Oehlerich, who arrested the man, said that he was drunk but that when searched he had only about $27 on him. Attorney TJ. S. Balentine, de fending Anderson, told the court that there was no evidence of Anderson's taking the money but that it had been accidentally given him in the pillow and that no crime was committed.
