Ewauna High
Bidder For
Indian Logs
Ewauna Box company of Klamath
Fulls was high bidder Tuesday after
noon for approximately 10,000.000
feet of virgin Ponderosa pin timber
on the Klamath Indian reservation,
offering $29 a thousand feet for the
stumpage.
Bids were opened at 2 p. m. at
Klamath Agency. Reese Taylor,
Agency forester, said that the sale
would not be official until the bids
were reviewed by the regional for
estry office In Portland.
Ewauna's bid was $25 for Vine. (10
for Douglas fir and cedar, $4.60 for
other saw species. Second high was
the Ivory Pine company at $33.90
for pine, $13 and $530: Modoc Lum
ber company's bid of $20.85, $10 and
$4.60 was third and the Finney
Logging company's $20.75. $10 and
$4.60 was fourth. Only four scaled
bids were submitted.
The timber lies on about 1800
acres of tribal land just south of
Fuego mountain. It Is almost 100
per cent Ponderosa but the other
bids were put in to take care of any
suay trees of other species.
Ewauna logged in the immediate
aiea of this Kanott unit during the
war for the Ktsterson Lumber com
pany and has roads right through
the Kanott unit. The company also
has a rail head about six miles west
of the stand.
The $25 bid is a high price for
timber stumpage, but a sale last
summer on the reservation went for
the record of $27.76.
No Diapers
For Junior
On Sunday-!
BOSTON, March 3 WV-The Mas
sachusetts senate has rejected a
ptoposal allowing diaper services to
make emergency deliveries on Sun
days. Even the strange alliance of two
bcchelors and a father of twins
couldn't save the measure.
Sen. Philip Q. Bowker, a bache
lor, said yesterday he was all
wrapped up In the subject and
dion't Intend to "pin anything on
anybody."
"But it's time for a change," he
added.
"This measure." Bowker said,
"will provide relief for the little
folks."
Waving a baby doll and a diaper,
another bachelor. Sen. Charles W.
Olson, seconded Bowker's remarks.
The opposition, trading puns
with the opponents, prevailed.
Senator Sumner Greenleaf Whit
tier, a member of the same family
as the poet, Whlttler, listened to his
colleagues' arguments for emergen
cy diaper service and commented,
"Whatever has been said here goes
double for me." Whittier is the
father of twins.
British Troops
Support Jews
JERUSALEM, March 3 W British
boops battled beside Jews Tuesday
against Arab snipers dug in on hill
sides commanding the Jerusalem
Jaffa road, a Jewish . agency source
said.
The British vowed last night to
use their weapons henceforth, "Im
partially against whichever side is
firing."
The informant said both British
police and Tommies moved into the
area, about 12 miles outside Jeru
salem. ,
A large-scale battle appeared to be
under way. Heavy automatic weap
ons and grenades were heard, and
the Jews were believed to be bring
ing up mortars.
The British have threatened to use
weapons more powerful than those
available either to Jews or Arabs to
stem the bloody fighting which has
raged in Palestine ever since the
United Nations decision to partition
the Holy Land was announced in
November.
The new battle Is near a point
where the Jerusalem-Jaffa road
leaves the Judean hills and enters
the plains. A three-mile stretch
of road has been Impassable for
weeks because of sniping.
No casualty reports were Immedi
ately available. -

became playful and started running
and kicking up their heels and
"King," the ill-fated horse, was un
able to get out of the way of an
other horse's blow to his right hind
leg, which broke it just- above the
fetlock. "King" will be remembered
by many Wocus children who had
the pleasure of riding him last sum
mer. He was brought to this com
munity by George Reagan, who pur
chased him when he was a very
young colt five years ago.

of wood. It was February 22. 1865,

Germany, agreed to carve the statue
of Washington on horseback from

years to complete the Job. Ostner's
son, Albert, held a pitch pine torch
for his father to work by and the
job was done at night. Ostner pre
