I(F To Vote
On Levy For
Swim Pool
People of Klamath Falls will
be asked at the November elec
tion to vote on a levy of $175,000
for a municipal swimming pool.
Action to put the proposal on
the ballot was taken by the
council in special session last
night, climaxing years of discus
sion of swimming pool projects
nere. ine levy win probably be
for four mills for four years, the
amcunt to be raised not exceed,
ing $175,000.
The council action was taken
on recommendation of the city
recreation committee, which de
cided against an earlier proposal
to' ask for $293,000 at the No
vember vote. In discussions yes
terday, the recreation commit
tee and councilmen agreed that
it would be better to ask for a
smaller amount, limiting the fa
cilities to be constructed to a
swimming pool, locker rooms
and lobby or waiting room.
If the people authorize the
pool, it will be built on the
newly-acquired site in the 1900
block of Main street, where
there is an artesian hot water
well to supply water for the
pool.
. .. Also on the ballot at the No
vember election will be a pro
posed continuing levy of a mill
and a half to provide operating
funds for the recreation depart
ment, including the swimming
pool. The present levy of half
a mill, which raises only around
$5000, is not believed sufficient
to operate the expanded pro
gram. The original plan was to ask
for $293,000 to build the swim-
and a gymnasium, all on the
ming pool, a lounge with offices
Main street site. It was brought
out in the discussions that there
has been strong sentiment for
a swimming pool here for manv
years and that the public at this
time might prefer a construction
program restricted to the pool.
There was some discussion of
the possibility of private con
tributions to finance other con
struction at the site, with no ac
tion taken. The whole matter
of further development on the
site was left for later considera
tion. Warning Issued

Coffee Says
No Tax Paid
On Donation
WASHINGTON. July 30 (P)
Rep. Coffee (D-Wash.) testified In
response to senate war investi
gating committee questions today
that he did not include In hi
income tax for 1941 a $2500 item
which came from a Tacoma,
Wash., defense contractor.
He insisted that the $2500 waa
a "campaign contribution" and
argued, in response to queries
from Senator Ferguson (R.Mieh
that he was not required to re
port contributions of that nature
below $4000.
He said that the check for
$2500 was "cashed right away"'
after it had been received by
Paul A. Olson, then his secretary,
from Eivind Anderson, the Ta
coma defense contractor. Ander
son testified the money was to .
pay ior services rendered him
by Coffee.
Deposited in Bank
Coffee said the money was de
posited in one of his several bank'
accounts. ,. -. ... . .
"Ho are you going to account
to the public that you spent -all
the money for campaign ex
penses?" demanded Ferguson.
"I'm coming to that," Coffee
said, "I'm coming to that."
He asked and was granted per
mission to Dresent hkl stnrv "in
chronological order.'.
tie then told the committee
that he had paid $3000 "out of
my own pocket" in his campaign
w imctuuD in looa ana mat
he had applied the $2500 "to try
to replace some of the campaign
indebtedness which had incurred
in a very expensive campaign."
AndtrsonTesiifies
Coffee took the witness stand
shortly after Eivind Anderson,
Tacoma contractor, had told the
committee that he sent the check
to Paul A. Olson, Coffee's former
secretary, in payment for serv
ices. Testifying voluntarily, Coffee
told the committee that allega
tions concerning the check were
"motivated in politics and satu
rated in political bias."
He told the committee it is
his understanding that "these
charges were presented bv th
republican national committee
through Senator Browster (R-
Me.. ) He added that he also
. understood Mat the national mm-
mittee had in turn obtained them
irom the republican state central
committee in Washington.
