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.

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

Robert Chllcote, real estate and

was of the safety ot children which
could not be measured In dollars and
cents.

nuMneu arllvlty will be at ft

ror. Highlights of the day will be
til ArmUlli-e Day parade by the
various military and veterans or

between Oi l and Lassen Junior Col.

Some buslneu places will remain
open. The Herald and News will

Iliil all banks, schools, dnwntown

Bend Game
Many local cllUens will make the
drive to Hend to attend the Mend
Pelican football game tomorrow aft
ernoon. Many others plan trips to Merke
ley lor the Oregon-California tussle.
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. I
A GOOD ACTOR gets an Oscor, and that is what Estin Kigcr,
left, received from Ken Klohn, chairman'of the public serv
ices division of the Klamath County Community Chest. Kiger
was first of the "goal busters" in the Chest drive when his
firm, Superior-Troy laundry, turned in 131 per cent, far ex
ceeding the quoto.
