In The 1 s Lews (Continued from Page 1) lower wages and widespread unem ployment? HOPE you won't misunderstand me. I'm not arguing against what we call direct relief by which Is meant money that is paid to those who have no Jobs, who have no unemployment compensation coming, who have no bonds saved up AND ARE HUNGRY. I believe without reservation thit people who are Jobless, hungry and cold MUST BE FED. HOUSED AND CARED FOR. If that isn't done, our boasted modern mechanical civilization will break down and come to an end. BUT why Is it that In boom years of full employment and labor scarcity our direct relief payments are SO MUCH HIGHER than In years of depression snd lack of em ployment? Unless we can find the answer to that question. It seems to me that we are headed for bad trouble in the years that are to come.

Don't miss a good bet shop the Want Ads every dayl It paysl By DAVID VNDERHILL Goodrich W. Lineweaver, director ot operations and maintenance ot the bureau of reclamation. Informed a public assembly at the city hall last night there are two possible ap proaches to solution of the canal fencing project. Lineweaver stated It was likely some program could be agreed upon w hich the reclamation bureau could present to the budget bureau In Washington and thence to congress for action. Other Step The other step recommended bv the director waa that the people of this community prevail upon their senators and representatives in Washington to introduce In congress special legislation authorizing ex penditure of funds for the project. Lineweaver remarked also that al though this latter step Is not neces sary, it is preferable. In his opening remarks Line- weaver said the bureau considered the Klamath recreation project as one ot its prize developments rank ing at the top as a successful pro ject. He added that the bureau's position was to assist project water users and be of service to people In towns served by reclamation pro jects. Open Forma . Alter these remarks the meeting was open to the public so that views of the community on the project cculd be presented to the director. Mrs. Robert McDonald, chairman of an all-women's canal fencing committee, informed the meeting that their purpose in promoting the fencing was to curb danger to chil dren. She stated that since the canal was built in 1907. 41 children and five adults have drowned in Its waters. This information, she remarked, was obtained with the aid of Dr. Seth M Kerron, Klamath county health officer. Another member of the commit tee. Mrs. James L. Brown, told of an incident in which a two-year-old child of Mrs. Don Curtis had slipped Into the canal, but was fortunately saved. Won't Pay A representative of' the Klamath Irrigation district. Bill Ganong. said that although the district is in favor of the fencing project, it was op posed to being saddled with costs the vicinity of the fence. He said an affirmative statement on the city's part as to how far the ' lC '.W" h dUtrt.Ct ! dtK- ould be very helpful towards The Klamath Falls city recrea tion rommUtee, through Recrea tion Director Bam Smith, todny an nounced it had accepted the Tren Age program for the coining year. For the past year a movement has been under way to transfer activltlea ot the Teen-Agera to the reclamation committee due to lack ot funds to hire a full time direc tor. This, and the loss nt a meet ing place, has made It necessary for those interested In the Teen Age club, tti look elsewhere tor leadership. Kaatrlelions Smith announced action taken late Tuesday by the recreation committee, has now placed Teen Age act I vii lea in that group s hands. Smith said, however, that there were three restrictions: The committee will accept the management only. The committee will not be re sponsible "now or at any future time for providing quarters or funds for this program." The recreation committee will have final authority In making all decisions on fact and policy. The fund will continue to be raised as one ot the Klamath slble whereby the city would take County Community Chest agen reponsibility of landscaping work in des. ski TooirC FIELDS two saumrcajttaiK.'.

Fans who attend Ihe OTI-I.se game here will be Informed of the Pelican-llend scores by sot a n noiincementa, Alhletlc Director Hkeet O Connell said. "I will be glad to pay my share ot the costs," said Chilcote. "and It Is ' high time some protective solution j waa devised." City Attorney Henry Perkins asked I If there waa not some way the j budget could inrluri an illntinnf for the fencing. Liquidating Perkins was Informed by Line weaver that under irrigation law all funds allocated are reimbursable, that is they are eventually paid by the project. Lineweaver added there has never been a case in which Con gress has authorized non-reimbursable funds for a project ot this kind. Concerted Effort Condrey suggested the only way to get the Job accomplished was by j a concerted effort on the part of I the women's committee, suburban ! groups, the Irrigation district and i the city council in seeing that a ' separate appropriation was put through congress. "If we do this." he said, "there is ' a chance of getting the appropria tion through congress in 1990." "But let the Irrigation district get behind us in Jiis effort to push the legislation thro jgh congress with the aid of our Oregon congressional del egation." Condrey remarked. Safety Mayor Robert Thompson, acting as chairman of the meeting, said that everyone was agreed the canal should be fenced off as a safety measure. "The thing to do." he said, "is to success ot the project. Cooperation I In conclusion he added the reels -I matton bureau would try to work out ' the best possible solution. "However." ' Lineweaver remarked, "don't expect I the bureau to get the Job done without whole-hearted support from . the people In the community." The meeting, scheduled for T o'clock, was delayed over an hour and a half, when the United Air Lines plane on which Lineweaver was traveling from Sacramento had to land In Bend. Garry Lindley. bu reau ot reclamation regional super visor from Sacramento, said that they had a rough trip up here. The municipal airport was completely closed In on their arrival here. The party had to travel from Bend to Klamath Falls by car and met by E. L. Stephens, manager ot the Klamath reclamation project, who waa also at the meeting. Why Necwary Smith said that the committee has found It necessary to Impose the three restrictions because the lease on property used by the Teen Age club through the courtesy of Mr. and Mrs. R. P. Oliver la no longer available; finances ot the Teen-Age group without assistance from the cheat are not sufficient and the recreation department budget Is obligated for several yeara to come: the Teen-Age coun cil, after three years' operation, believes "that a program without a center will more nearly answer our responsibility to this age group." The winter program, as super vised in the future by the recrea tion committee, will include chap-1 eroned dances, skating parties, ski , Jaunts and after-game parttea. Most Indoor affalra will be held in i the armory. Smith said.
