Captain Carlsen did his duly
handsomely. 11 la now, 1 should
say. up to his employers to do
ihclr duly as handsomely as he did
his. Paraphrasing slightly the Par
able of the Talents (Matthew

"Well done. Ihou good and faith

make thee ruler over many

That Is to aay. Captain Carlsen

Khuniith shipments dropped off to
only 2B carloads yesterduy.
Potato Inspectors today were ex
pecting little work as a combina
tion of weather and alower mar
kets cut activity to a great ex
tent. Yesterday there were 60 cars of
potatoes reported out. Last Hutu r
day there were 103.
Potato men pointed to the sched
uled rollbackNn spud prices and
setting a celling at "100 per cent
of parity" at 3. 65 for U.S. No. Fa,
which works out at a loss ot about
$1.66 to growers per hundred
pounds of potatoes.
The rollback announcement was
made last week. No new sales have
been reported since, though the cell
ing does not become effective un
til Jnn. 19. Most shipments since the
announcement have been reported
ly contract sales and sales made
earlier at the 5 or belter going
price per hundred pounds.
Meanwhile, the Department of
Agriculture has okayed an Oregon -

Hie Marketing Agreement Con
trol Committee ha Indicated It will
meet In Klamath Falls sometime
next week to consider lilting the
two-Inch minimum shipping regula
tion now in effect.
Orowers and shippers have be
gun receiving the full Office of
Price Stabilization rollback order.
They pome to one clause In the
order as a possibility for obtaining
revision In the price cut:
"It is expected that this regula
tion," it rends, "will be effective
for a relatively limited period, and
If the price situation warrants will
be replaced by a more detailed
regulation or otherwise changed in
Die light of more adequate infor
mation," Such clause has raised hopes In
some circles that a revision may
be effected. The Oregon Potato
Commission has announced It will
ask a 75-cent hike In the announced
celling.

lone ladder, and the two men
climbed lo safety. They were In the
water only about lour minutes.
Carlsen refused to give up until
the stricken freighter obviously
was heaving her last. He had bat
tied since the Christmas Day hur
ricane to save his ship. His soli
tary duel with the Atlantic began
Dec. 28, after he ordered all hands
lo abnndon the ship, which carried
a crew of 40 and 10 passengers.

hausted, climbed Into dry clothing
as the tug turned hurriedly In the
direction of Falmouth, about 40
miles away.
Associated Press reporters at the
scene depicted the last hour of
the Enterprise.
For more than 24 hours the ves
sel had been virtually on its side.
At 3:08 p.m. (7:og a.m. PST)
It became obvious to the U.S.
Destroyer Keith, standing by, that
tne Enterprise was about to go
down.
It and other nearby boats began
the long-planned rescue operation
at once.
The motley assortment of ooats
which had been scurrying about the
freighter for days heaved close in
to the writhing vessel as the Tur
moil's lights Hashed the signal
C-L-O-S-E."
The tunnel of the Enterprise by
this time was slapping the surface
of the sea. The bow was consider
ably lower than the stern.
A Utile American flag still flut
tered over the rear part of the
superstructure. ,

The two men leaped overboard,
even as the Enterprise gave a
heave to port and began slowly
to keel over on her side. Part of
her cargo worth more than a mil
lion dollars was strewn about the
surrace of the churning water in
profusion. Soon other parts of the
Enterprise began to crack, ar.1
more cargo was pitched, out Into
the sea.
By 3:34 p.m., the Enterprise was
lullv on her side. Grimly. Carlsen
and Dancy. clad In life Jackets
' and dripping with water, watched
the Inst uasn from the tug.
It was a gallant deatu. The
rescue fleet saluted It. In the last
few minutes the tugs sounded their
sirens. Only the bow of the Enter
prise was visible.
At 4:09 p.m. flares on the surface
of (he water near the ship were
lighted, casting a weird light over
the area as the Enterprise took her
final lunge. One minute later the
Enterprise was below the sea.

Men Sought
In Stormy

SEATTLE ' Planes and ships
Joined Thursday in' a desperate
search of the stormy . North Pa
cific tor 43 men wno took to the
lifeboats late Wednesday from the
crippled, ' leaking freighter , Penn
rylvanla ' .
Planes stapled scanning the area
about 405 miles northwest of the
northern tip of Vancouver Island.
Mountainous waves and a tem
perature of around 35 degrees
brought grave fears for the sea
men if they made it safely into
the lifeboats under hazardous conditions.-.
A U.S. Coast Guard patrol plane
was the lirst craft to report from
tne scene, rue coast Guard said
its report at 6:40 a.m. PST esti
mated Its distance from the Penn
sylvania's last reported position at
about 10 miles. The plane was -start
ing down from 4,000 feet to a 500-
foot, searching level. Then silence.
The Coast Guard said radio com.
munlcations normally were poor
irom tow attitude at such a dis
tance, about 800 miles from Se-
attie. . , ,
Visibility was from zero to three
miles at 4.000 feet. It was be
lieved to be about five miles on
the surface.
A Japanese freighter also was
due to reach the scene during the
morning. A second ship, the Cyg
net, estimated its position at 35
miles southeast of the Pennsylva
nia's reported position, in a mid
morning report.
Planes also were sent by the
Navy and the Air Force's Air lies
cue Service.
' ,' irrse '"leaving now." ' late
WednciJuy was. the .final message
from the storm'-batteredi Pennsyl
vania. It had reported Itself down
at the bow so badly that the rudder
rode out of the water part of the
time.
The crewmen and their officers
left the split-open, water-logged
Jinx ship at 4:30 p.m., PST. They
apparently . preferred fighting
mountainous seas and high winds
in. their frail life boats to remain
ing on the wallowing 7,800 ton ves
sel. Four terse messages in the space
of 25 minutes told of the dwindling
hope after 10 hours battling the ele
ments and the hopeless task of re
gaining control of the ship which
was down at the bow and ship
ping tons of water through a 14
foot crack on its port side.

The Trinity, originating near
Weed, Is considered a part of the
Klamath river system and as such
the diversion is being opposed by
the Klamath River Watershed De

Truman Farm
Plan Puzzler
By OVID A. MARTIN
WASHINGTON Wl Farm lead
ers puzzled Thursday over a state
ment by President Truman that a
sliding scale in the price support
law should not be allowed to penal
ize farmers who increase produc
tion for defense needs.
They pointed out such a system Is
not being used now. Consequently,
they said they saw no danger to
the farmer unless the administra
tion, which has been against the
sliding scale, changes its policies.
Some saw in the comment, made
In the President's State of the Un
ion message, an indication the con
troversial issue may figure in this
year's political campaigns.
Mr. Truman's reference to the
scale was in connection with an
appeal for a stronger farm price
support system.
Some observers said Mr. Tru
man may have had in mind an oft-
advanced argument that the mere
existence of the sliding scale pro
vision for minimum supports,
whether It is used or not, serves to
weaken the farm price program.
The law does not require the
secretary to use the minimum
rates of the sliding scale except
that he may not go below them.
He has authority to set and main
tain supports at the maximum lev
el year In and year out regardless
of the size of crop supplies.

Engineers is to meet Friday, 7:30
p.m., at tne noma of Mrs. Charles
Johnson, 2005 Vine.
Thousand! of Japanese were con
fined in the camp for security rea
son during ihe last war.
since 1946, the military area or
the camp has been leased to the
ITulelake Growers Association. The
association has used the area pri
marily for a harvest labor camp
and has sub-leased a few dwelling
units.
Several weeks ago. representa
tives of the Federal Bureau of Pri
sons inspected the camp but had
nothing to say as to their reason.
Rumors were plentiful here today
as to why the Justice Department
is again taking over the camp's
military area. But there was no
information available from authori
tative sources.
Most popular rumor waa that the-
camp is to be renovated and en
larged, apparently so that A may
again be used for confinement.
The vacating order, cancelling
the Tulelake Growers Association
current lease, was Issued by the
Klamath Project office of the Bu
reau of Reclamation.
HIGHER UP
Laton Stephens, manaorer of the
local Reclamation office, said the
order originated higher up and that
ne naa no oinciai Knowledge a to
the reason for it.
. However. Stephens opined that
the Justice Department was prob
ably concerned only with whipping
the camp In shape for quick use
if and when needed.
He pointed out that the last Con
gress made funds available for
such renovation work. ,r'
oeverat months ago, there was
seemingly fantastic rumor here
abouts that the Newell camp might
be used as a detention center for
Communists party members. The
rumor was strongly spiked by gov
ernment sources In Washington. .
uuring tne past war, approxl-,
mately 20,000 Japanese civilians re
siding on the West Coast, were con-.
fined at the camp. . .. . ,
The military area of the camp
now being vacated was used by
troops and administrative person
nel of the campv ,. . .v..
