The general aald some time ago that when he decldea lo change the order hi niluhl direct that local boards at Ural take only youths more than 18 years and months old, and Uien lower the age level bv three-month Intervals as need 41 'ed. 1 I iacwagt-i.., g: i statement about It was made by Prank 8. Hulucs. Hufues It a wealthy Texan who has ol late been Investing heavily In mis general area. As he talked to this reporter about Klamath, Hollies was with W. U. Miller at the Willard Hotel. Occasion for the brief chut waa a formal aimounce menl ol Uie sale ol the Willard Hotel by Miller to Hofuea. The Willard la the third hotel Hofuea has purchased In Uie West. The other two were the Bakers- field Inn at Bakersfleld and Uie Golden Hotel,. Heno. Other hotel interests are lumped under Uie oouiner southern Hotel chain, wllh head. " m fJbTtfoTi a the hotel. Hofuea ha Invested In aeveral large ranch ea In Oregon, California, Idaho, Wyoming" and Colorado. Hut moat recent purchase were the big Metsa ranch, liutte Valley, and the Ray ranch, at Keno. These latter two ranches Hofuea bought In part- nersnip wun a. j. Kircnmer, Ama rillo, Texas. In talking over his Klamath In. vestments here Saturday, Holues revealed thai extensive oil exnlor anon was to be made on the Mel ranch. He said "a large oil com pany" would sink some test wells. Asked II geologists had made any favorable findings In Uie Mctss ranch area. Hofues said "no, but they're finding oil everywhere else in tne west . . might be aomc round here On Uie subject of the Willard Hotel, immediate reason for the chat Saturday. Hofues was entire. lv enthusiastic. He offered tribute to w. D. Miller's business sagacity and the hotel management oi i-ec H nrlett. "You seldom find property like this you can buy," ssld Uie genial Texan, "This business Is on the way up: usually, when they're for sale, uicy re on ine way aown. Why, they have Just about doubled the Oral door business in this ho tel In the past two years." Since Scarlett took over manage. ment of the Willard. the grill and restaurant has been renovated as Uie Paul B,unyn Room and lounge and (upper club, the Pon derosa Room, has been added. Now, Holues plans (urther re vamping. Besides giving Uie en tire hotel general going over, he plans among other things, too enlarge ine ronaerosa Room cock toll lounge. Bcnrlrtt Is to continue as man- aner. And Scarlett said (ollowlng this announcement by Hofuea, that he In i turn planned no personnel enanges. Scarlett aald he had sold his In terest In the Mayfalr Hotel at Corn. Ing so as to be able to devote lull time to running the Willard. Hofues may not spend much of his time In this area but If he does he will probably be very pop ular In both business and social circles. He Is that type person. He has a sparkling smile which goes very well with his apparent .eat for action. Whether the Klnmath Country enjoys Hofues' actual presence much or not It will certainly profit from having been Included In hi sturdy financial family, Bli Business watches areas fav ored as new Investment spot by us cmeiinins: We must have something here.

W The most serious dlplomntlo rift between Britain and the U, 8. in years continued unabated today despite effort by India and other countries to close the breach. Day-long harmony move were expected, but diplomat beld little hope for them. The two great allies split faf apart when the V. 8. notified Brit ish Foreign Secretary Anthony Eden that It could not accept a British-backed Indian compromise plan for ending the Korean prison er of war deadlock unless the pro posals should be given a chance as they stand, but the U, S. wants all details spelled out. India came up quickly with modifications but these apparently did not satisfy the V. 8. The 21 powers which backed an original American resolution held an urgent closed1 meeting lass night at which U. 8. Secretary of State Dean Acheson detailed the American objections to the Indian proposals. The 21 apparently failed to find a position which would please both Britain and the U. 8. Feelings at the meeting were tense and afterwards press offi cers of the British and American delegations were not even polite to one another highly unusual in diplomatic circles. EDEN AWAT Eden stayed away from the meeting- but sent his top assistant. Minister of State Selwyn Lloyd. A spokesman said Eden had a "long-standing social engage ment," but he went mum when reminded that Eden didn't make up his mind to stay here until last Friday and therefore It was unlikely that he had a New York engagement for a day he expected to be in London. Acheson was scheduled to aneak late today in the V. N.'s 60-mem-ber Political Committee, but aides said he might postpone the speech because of fast-breaking behind' the scenes diplomatic developments. Poland was also on the speakers list and some delegates hoped for a tipoti on omciai communist re action to the split between the Western Allies. MOSCOW Moscow newspapers commented yesterday that the British-American differences over the Indian resolution just proved the Commu nist contention that a major split and possibly a war between the ,.U. S,-8Jvrr rtHrer-YffeViicoun. tries l.t . vwwtble. Xhe.-Bovlet press also has made H plain that the Russians do not consider the Indian plan the right solution to the POw Issue. Both British and Americans made It clear that they are not divided on their basic refusal to send back prisoners who say they are afraid to return to the Reds. They differ over what approach is most likely to solve the prob lem and bring an armistice to Korea. VAGUE . . The V. 8. position Is that the Indian plan la too vague and could give the Reds a chance to indulge in au sorts of stalling and double talk. They say they have had Uie experience of negotiating; with the Communists at Panmun jom and have learned the neces sity of crossing all Ts and dotting all Ts. The Indian plan, as revised yes terday alpng lines suggested by Eden, would: 1. Turn all prisoners held by both sides over to a four-power commission made up of Poland, Czechoslovakia, Switzerland and Sweden. These countries would be responsible for caring for the pris oners and getting them home. The commission would pick a neutral (Continued on Pass 41 1
