this year. Plans have been made
and work is being done to operate
a permanent housing center for

of the basin. .To attract the more
desirable farm workers to work here
during the needed periods, requires

years experience in charge pi farm
labor camps, including Mexican na
tional camps in the Klamath basin
during the war, wiu oe tne associa

maintenance, and management.
To Get Warehouses
The assication has, been notified
by Bureau of Reclamation officials
that it is the intention of that
agency to award the five large ware

upon Southern Pacific company s
land, to this growers association.

Spud Department
Borne consideration was given to
the advantages of effectuating a po
tato marketing agreement. No ac
tion was taken on this matter, but
iurtner study will be made as to the
expediency of entering into such
program for this reason.
It was thought that it is too early
to make specific recommendations
relative to harvest wages. Too many
variable factors might enter into
wage scales that may be proposed
at this time.
A number of new Tulelake home
steaders attended the meeting. A
spokesman for this group. Mr. Paul
Rogers, informed the meeting of the
extreme need for roads in the new
homestead area, and solicited sup
port of the Growers association in
obtaining congressional action for

Missing Cameraman Still
Mystery. After 37 Years
The Herald and News office had a
isitor vesterday who asked a ques
tion some of the city's old-timers
might be able to answer. He was
Norris Goode, editor of two small
town weeklies in south central Illi
nois, who was briefly a resident of
Klamath Falls back in 1911.
During a six months stay here.
Goode worked on The News, and it
was because of his newspaper work
that he came In contact witn a
photographer sometime during the
winter of 1910-11. His acquaintance
with the man, whose name he has
forgotten, was short lived, for one
cold winter day the photographer
set out on snowshoes from uie edge
of town toward Crater lake, never
to return.
It was the man s Intention to take
pictures of Crater lake in all the
beauty of winter. The trip was dan
aero us. but the man liked to take
good pictures, so he set out with a
pack oi oianxets ana gruo ana two
cameras.
Goode saw him off at the edge of
town. He was, quite possibly, the last
man ever to see rum, lor tne coia
and the snow and the emptiness
swallowed him up. Weeks, later a
Lsearch party stumbled onto one of
tne man s came-as ana some oi nis
photographic plates, but there was
no trace of the man.
Months later, in June to be exact.
Goode had to leave for the east due
to the Illness of his mother. He left
before the snows had thawed suffl-
-
imously to adopt a resolution re
questing federal funds for this road
work construction and Improvement.
The Tulelake Growers association
is committed to an extensive serv
ice program for assisting individual
growers where organized effort is
required, and to cooperate with
other community agencies and or
ganizations to develop and promote
the general welfare of the people in
the Tulelake area of the Klamath
basin. Opportunities for a wide
range of services exists. With a
strong membership, sufficient fi
nances, and sound leadership this
growers organization faces the chal-
enge to assist in solving some of
the common problems that are now.
