Pool Finance May Be Eased TTie problem ol llnanclng con struction of a municipal swimming pool nere In Klamath Falls may hsve been eased somewhat bv an opinion ot Cltv Attorney Henrv Per kins that money can legally be bor rowed from other city funds which aren't being used. Cllv voters okaved a tax lew lo pay lor a swimming pool last May, but Uie 1160.000 the lax levy Is expected to raise won't come In In a lump sum. Instead. It will be seven years before the full amount oi tne lax reaches Uie city treas ury. If the pool la to be built anv time soon, the builder undoubtedly will want his money as he goes along, so Uie problem Is lo some how raise- the money In advance against the expected tax levy in come. The vote last Mav was for a tnx levy, not for a bond Issue, so Uie monev can't be raised bv bond Is sue. Bsnka won't loan on the whole seven-veers' lew Income at once, out win loan only on a snort-time basis, one year's proceeds at a Ume. At a meeting of the swimming pool committee last night. Perkins gave his opinion that borrowing from existing cltv funds would be legal. If the swim pool levy In come is earmarked to oav back the borrowings and If the divisions, oi tne city government controlling uie ouut-up funds agree. There is enough monev Idle in a couple of funds to build Uie swim ming pool. If such borrowing is permitted. A mausoleum fund con tains some $63,000, and another M.O00 earmarked for use on Vet eran's Memorial Park currently is Invested In bonds and drawing in terest. Those two amounts Dlus the an ticipated receipt of some 522.958 from the swimming pool lew when property taxes are paid this fall, and around to, 000 already on hand In a swimming pool fund would be enough to finance construction of the pool.

Election Cost By HALE SCARBROUGII County Clerk Charlie DcLnp hns begun Uie tremendous job of get ting rendy for the Nov. 4 general election. The voting will cost Klnmnth Comity anywhere from $12,000 to $15,000, the figure based on past election expenses, or probably around $1 a vote cast. The county will have about 21.000 registered voters but also esti mated on- pnst election experience only about 12.000 or so of them will take the trouble to vote, A turnout of 16,000 ev n at a general election would be exceptional. However, an official bnliot must be provided for every registered voter, and a sample ballot also, In case ho wants to study one before the election. At least half as many snmple ballots must be printed as official ballots. Thercforo, with Klnmnth County having some 21,000 registered voters, the county will have lo print 21,000 ofliclal ballots plus KLAMATH FALLS, OREGON, VvKT ' , 'Ail - THREE PRINCIPALS at larf night's Oregon Education Association banquet at the Willard are shown above.

Local Market News To Start A livestock market reporting service is to get underway here next week lor a mne-momn trial period, reporting prices paid week ly on various beef grades at the local livestock auction. The auction is held weekly at the Klamath Livestock Commission yards. Extension Agricultural econo mist Marion Thomas, Oregon State College, explained the report setup to a gauiering ol larm, livestock and financial representatives last night In tne county agents .office. Funds have been made avail able, Thomas said, for the trial reporting period which Is planned to put out a market report much like Uie one which has been pub lished for Uie Ontario auction for some time. The report will be carried In The Herald and News following the Wednesday auction, and is to be broadcast over KFLW. John Landers. OSC animal hus bandry department, who Just com pleted a session as Judge for the Rotary Junior Livestock Show here, will work up the weekly report. After a trial period, plans may be made to Incorporate the reporting service within the local organiza tion. Ed Cole, OSC livestock market reporting service, said an em phasis has been placed on uniform grading ot cattle throughout the country, ln that way, he said, a price on a local "good or ' cnoice' grade animal can be compared to the same grades elsewhere, know ing those grades are as closely as possible the same. Eventually the market reporting mav develop into a Basin-wide, all- crop reporting service, covering all diversities crops in uie nasin area. There has been talk for some Ume of potato, barley and alstke clover market reporting here. IndL cations were last night that would be the next step in a reporting service here, perhaps with an of fice or full-time reporter working here. A try-out potato-market report was recenUy made for several weeks at Ontario, reporting Idaho and Washington potato prices and shipments. Several of those reports were published In The Herald and News. The livestock reports are to be mailed weekly to nil persons re questing them. Requests may be made through Uie county agent's office, nt the Klnmnth Livestock Commission, the KPCA, or with the U.S. and First National Banks.

Still dreaming, he suggested that the time may come when instead of adapting the system of promo tion from grade to grade to Uie slowest we may find it advisable to permit those capable of doing so to progress as rapidly as possible, thus shortening their schooling per lod and providing for a still further accelerated output of pupils from the existing physical school plant. He spoke of the avid curiosity of all children up to school age, and asserted that too often this in herent thirst for knowledge is killed when they enter school. Education al dreaming, he said, must-include the hope that gaining knowledge can be kept as fascinating through all the school years as it is in the case of the curious pre-school child that is constantly questioning its parents as to the why and the how of life. He also said it is not too fantastic to hope that Uie schools can learn to teach "straighter" thinking that is, logical thinking from known facts to "sound" conclusions. Miss -Florence Beardsley, re minding her hearers that she was dreaming by request, and in a dream one is never bothered by money considerations, would start the child's schooling in an ideal educational system with a prenatal school for fathers and mothers. As for the young of the species when it starts to school, she would do away with grades and "passing."

Texans had a hint from their governor today that Gen. Dwlght D. Elsenhower's name might be placed on the state Democratic party's ticket aa a presidential nominee. Oov. Allan Shivers Indicated. such a possibility ln a radio ad dress last night in which he said tidelands oil was not the only issue on which he based a decision not lo vote personally for Oov. Adlal Stevenson, Democratic nominee, Shivers repeated previous at- attacks on what he called "Tru- manlsm." He said he thought Ste venson "a better man than Tru man" and would lf elected give a better administration. "Yet his views on Texas tide lands are an indication that be . . . would continue to hold the views and countenance the policiea that Truman and people around Tru man have established," Shivers said. ; PACKAGE "Oscar Ewlng 'federal social se curity administrator) and bis views on socialized medicine are, rolled up In the same package, along with a continuation of a stalemated foreign policy, a con tinuation of the highest spending and highest taxation ln the history of this nation nd a continuation of central government powers con centrated ln Washington," Shivers' said. ,J "Those who have seized the great Democratic party," the gov' ernor continued, "have misused it. absorbed It and changed Its his-, tory, its policiea and it tradi tions." J He asked Texans to tell him, what they want to do as citizens How do you want to vote?" be asked. State Atty. Gen. Price Daniel, Democratic nominee for U. 8. Sen ate to succeed Sen. Tom Connally,' is among many Texas Democrat who bave recently written Shivers asking lor a double set ol Demo cratic presidential electors. One group would be tnose pledged to Stevenson, , ARRANGEMENTS i. Shivers predicted the State Denv cratlc Convention ln Amarilla Sept. t would "make such arrange ments as you people of Texas dev sire lo be made." He hinted that Elsenhower's name might be put on the Texas Democratic ticket with Stevenson' name on the national party ticket. "Their right to vote for the can didate of their choice is a basic freedom of the people," he said. Shivers first expressed opposi tion to the Stevenson candidacj last week wnen the Illinois gov ernor declared himself against any "blanket cession" of tldelsnda oil to the states. Stevenson at the time said be favored some sort ol compromise solution to break the present stalemate. Elsenhower has said he would favor legislation by Congress giv ing Uie states control over their, submerged oil riches. LOUISIANA " ', Gov. Adlal Stevenson's views on the tidelands Issue made him "less palatable" to Gov. Robert F. Ken non and has made GOP candidate Dwlght D. Eisenhower "more palatable". Kennon gave this opinion, the' first time he had Indicated his presidential candidate, at a press conference here yesterday. He Indicated that Stevenson's stand had enhanced Eisenhower's chances in Louisiana, where the oil-rich coastal areas are a vital political issue. Stevenson said last week he was opposed to any "blanket cession" of off-shore oil reserves to Indi vidual states. Kennon. an anti-Truman Demo crat, made it clear, however, that he bad not made up his mind about the presidential contest.
