Day's Sews
By FRANK JENKINS
I thought President Elsenhower's
speech In Boston last night was a
masterpiece. After hearing it, no
Republican needs to apologize to
anybody for being a Republican.
After all, it WAS the Republican
party that led the bloody struggle
to end human slavery In America.
a And m the half century that fol
lowed the war to end human sla
very the Republican party com-
- manned tne continence of tne
tieoDle al the UNITED States suf
ficiently to remain in power about
0 per cent of tne time.
I'm -no hidebound partisan. Over
its long history, I have great re
spect ior tne Democratic party. It
has had Its moments . of blazing
glory. '.It has had its less admirable
periods; So in its shorter lift
has the' Republican party. '
' At this critical moment In his
tory, the Republican party is in the
driver's seat. It Is led by men
whose Ideals are high. Let's all
HOPE It succeeds in what It has
set out to do. If It falls, we'll all
sutler.:
J I'm sure everyone must have
lead about this 22-year-old North
Korean pilot who flew a Russian
MIQ into one of our airports in
South Korea the other day. We
ilad ft standing reward of $100,000
tor any communist pilot who did
thati This young Norm . Korean
fsavs he didn't know there was
any such reward, but Is glad to
hear it. He says he hopes ne can
STUDY in the United States.
I hope so too, and I hope that
eventually ne can become natur
alized and turns out to be a good
citizen, we can use all such people
especially young people who
have the courage 'to leave the
slavery of communism behind them
and strike out for FREEDOM.
Pesldent Elsenhower does a
nice thing today.
- He proclaims October 11 as Gen
eral Casimlr Pulaski Day In honor
of the Polish count who helped to
win the American Revolution. Octo
ber 11 will be the 114 anniver
sary ot the death of Pulaski. , '
Casimir Pulaski was born in
Poland In 1748. He served for a
time in the Polish army at a period
when Poland was under the heel
of Russia as it NOW Is. The
Polish army was then an instru
ment tor the oppression of Poland
as the Polish army, under com
munist domination- now is. Young
Pulaski deserted and joined with
his lather and his brothers in a re
bellion to free his country of Rus
sian control. , -
His cause was LOST. The rebel
Hon was crushed. Young Pulaski
fled to Turkey and then to France,
In France he met Benjamin Frank
lin and under the inspiration of
that great patriot he came to Amer
ica and joined Oeneral Washing
ton's forces in Philadelphia in
1777. '
He organized a corps known as
MuasaTs- Legion which was sent
to South Carolina. Pulaski - wax
killed during the siege of Savan
nah, where he commanded both
the French and the American cav
alry. His name will live forever
in our annals, along -with that of
Lafayette and many, many other
liberal Europeans who came to
America to help in the fight
for freedom.
' Here Is a solemn thought:
America was then As NOW the
defender of human freedom In a
world In which human freedom
seemed to be losing out. The Euro
pean world was still held In the
.cruel grip of the ancient and
cruel institution of feudalism. It
was realization of this fact that
brought to us men like Pulaski
men who were ready to say w'th
our Patrick Henry: CTV! ME
LIBERTY OR GIVE ME DEATH.
I hope, and i can't help believ
ing, it was some such conviction
that led this young North Korean
to make a clean break with mind
enslaving communism and come
whishing into our airfield in South
Korea the other day.
I, think that same thought must
have been in President Elsenhow
er's mind when be set apart the
11th day of October as Oeneral
Casimir Pulaski Day. We need men
like that, just as we needed them
back in the grim mo's-imen of
idealism from all over the world
who are willing to give their all
for the cause of human freedom.

EXIiTlNQ DEVELOPMENT ''
Butte Valley Is situated at the
lower level of a closed surface ba
sin comprising a watershed area
potentially Inadequate for full Irri
gation development of the valley.
There are 58,000 acres of arable
lands In the valley of which about
10,000 acres are now irrigated. The
present irrigation supply is ob
tained mostly by ground - water
pumping with a minor supply from
diversions of unregulated flowa In
local surface streams. Major irri
gated crops now grown Include po
tatoes, grain, alfalfa, alsike clover
seed and pasture, with large acre
ages of dry-farmed grain. Crop
yields per acre, with adequate ir
rigation,' are- three-to-four times
greater than yields without Irriga
tion. Irrigation is required, for. suc
cessful growing of the hlgher-in-come-per-acre
crops of potatoes,
alsike clover -seed and Hannchen
Barley. The developed water sup
ply for most of the presently Irri
gated lands is Inadequate. tor maxi
mum production of these crops.
Drainage also Is Inadequate.
About 12,000 acres of publio lands
in 1 Butte Valley are suitable for
homes leading-, if an adequate wa
ter supply can be -developed. Cor
respondingly, there Is public de
mand for opening to entry of ad
ditional public lands under the

ST. LOUIS Itl Former Secre
tary of Labor Martin Du'rkin said
Tuesday President Eisenhower per
sonally backed out on an agree
ment with him on proposals to
amend the Taft-Hartley labor law.
But Durkin said he still considers
Eisenhower a friend.
Durkin told the annual AFL con
vention he quit Elsenhower's cab
inet two weeks ago "as a matter of
principle" because of the claimed
broken agreement, yet retained
"the warmest personal feelings of
friendship for the President,

Durkin said Eisenhower agreed
to tne amendments in a conference
In New York City, Aug. 19. But
later at a White House session on
Sept. 10, Durkin said, "he informed
me he had changed his position
since the New York meetinir and
that he could no longer go along
wiiii me xy amenaments. .
Elsenhower has never answered
Durkln's charges of a broken
pledge. The amendments were re
garded as considerably more fa
vorable to unions than to em
ployers. However, Durkin said he
considered them fair and, if El
senhower haa presented them to
Congress, a fulfillment of the Pres
ident's campaign pledge to change
the law.
In his Boston speech Mondav
night Eisenhower said an admin
istration study of T-H law changes
is continuing and that ne will have
recommendations for the nvt .
sion of Congress to make "more
secure our industrial neace anri
productivity, more clear and ex

Durkin said Tuesday most of tfte

another been proposed by Republi

the late Sen. Taft (R-Ohlo), main
author of the original T-H la

Is Increasing with the Installation
of numerous additional Irrigation
wells each year. The productivity
of underground ' aquifers within

What started out as a gay party
at the VFW Club and ended up In
a fight was being described Tuesday-
by defense witnesses in the
Circuit' Court trial of Alfred Klt
tock, Klamath Falls construction
worker, charged with assault and
battery.
The defendant Is accused of strik
ing and seilously injuring Joe E.
Weber, lumber grader. It has been
claimed that as a result of a blow
in the face. Weber lost the sight of
one eye. The prosecution did not
bring this allegation out. i
On this point, Tuesday morning,
Defense Attorney E. E. Drlscoll
moved tor a mistrial. He based
his action on radio resorts and
newsnaner accounts , ot the trial

Circuit Judge David R. Vanden-

dered District Attorney Frank Al

the trial. After -reading a story
whlch appeared in the Herald end
News and transcripts from Klamath
Falls two- radio stations, the court
refused to grant a mistrial
Before ruling oh the defense mo
tion. Judge Vandenberg asked the
members of the Jury whether they
had read any accounts of the trial
In newspapers or heard newscasts
about It. They said they had not.
- The trouble between Kittock and
Weber occurred on 'the night of
March 29 at the VFW Club. Ac
cording to -testimony, Mr. and Mrs.
Weber and Mr. and Mrs. Kittock
met at the club. After they had
danced a while and had a few
drinks, an -argument started be
tween the two women. '
Mrs. Kittock testified Tuesday
morning that Mrs.' Weber struck
her. Shortley afterward, Weber was
escorted from the club. He claims
while he was standing In front of
the club waiting for his wife, Kit
tock came out and hit him In the
face, knocking him down. His glas
ses were broken and one of his
eyes was cut. He was taken to
Klamath Valley Hospital for treat-.
