The country folks will conic to town for the observance, as they should, and the city will welcome them with "guest , car" parking stickers, as it should.

Klamath Production Credit As sociation, as the name suggests, is In the business of financing the pro' ductlon of farm crops crops grown in trie good earth and on it. .. Some KPCA members will point out that the framework of the con gressional act that provided for the organisation of such associations is the work of that lost and nearly forgotten tribe of Republicans of pre-New Deal days. While it was a government fi nanced organization at the start. 11 members will tell you that it has been entirely owned by farmers and cattlemen of Klam all), Lake, Modoc and Siskiyou counties since It paid Uncle off on January 2, 1949. It's local money that enables lo cal farmers to finance a year's production. There was a time when ome people Jibed the KPCAers about competing with private, tax paying financial institutions. TXieir answer then was that when It was organized, and the reason It was organized, existing banks were not able to pro"ide the kind of fi nancing that farmers needed. Now they laugh It off with the answer that KPCA is privately owned and pays taxes like people. Twenty members will be honored for JO years of membership. They are W. L.

She recently complet ed her memoirs for McCall s magazine, and said she would like after 20 years away from the screen to relum In one last film. "It would be the story of mv mother's life;" aho said, "and end on that day In 1009 when I walked into the old Biograph Studio and got my first movlr job.'' Mary rose from $40 to $10,000 a week in a few years, and piled up millions later producing her own films.

At Die start KPCA a terri tory didn't extend down Into Mo doc and Siskiyou counties as It does today. The 20 years have been Ulys Recder and Ed Geary contribute to public affairs through tours of duty in political bodies. The Hon. U. E. Recder Is county Judge, of course, and Ed Geary is back in state politics as candidate for speak er of the Oregon House of Repre sentatives. He is in nnmo, If not in person. He is one of the 20-year members who will be honored, as a 20-year director tpo, in name but not in person on account bf his being "down under" at present seeing how the New Zealanders grow grass. It has been an ambition of this writer, for all of these 20 years, to sell the association some ad vertising. We've told them that they'd never be "people". In suite of paying off Uncle and starting to pay taxes, until thev did Ilk other busln6sses and told the story of what they had to offer through advertising. Well, when KPCA moved Into Its own building at Ninth and Klam ath, the board of directors okayed an ad to invite everyone in to see me place, one invitational ad and then, no dice) Now, having attained 20-year stature, believe It or not, the board okayed another and telling of the 20 years of progress and honoring the 20-year members. You' must have seen It yesterday. It was op posite the comto page. Whether the absence of Ed Geary had anything to do with the softening up of this hard-shelled bunch of farmer-directors Is m. tlrely problematical. It may have been the break that got us. in or it may have been purely coinci dental'. At any rate, we hei-phu attest that the members, directors and th as. sociation as such have finally quail- nea. unquaunediy, as "people."

It was disturbing, though, to note your apparent tendency to white wash our city officials, who com mitted this community to the deal with the commercialized raqkets, and what seemed to be a minimiz ing of their violation of sworn pub lic duty. In your defense of their setting up "account 307", you stated that prior to its Institution, there was monopoly and all slot machines were supplied locally by just one racketeer, with all others excluded. By all reports and appearances the institution of the "Improvement fund" brought to change in that policy. The same old original Klamath slot machine racketeer seems to have exclusive "rights" to this territory regardless come what may. Your further state that from personal knowledge you believe the people who dreamed up "account 307" were good citizens, interested only In promoting the welfare of tne community, but perhaps led astray by the example set by the "socially correct clubs". I gather that you mean principally the iraternai orders, which operate a club, or bar, or "boar's nest in connection with their lodge. It is pretty wen known that most of these Institutions have operated slot maenmes extensively, tor years, and have repeatedly violated any law of the stale, or statute of their own, which seemed inconvenient, despite protests Irom some of their members. Those who manage to remain In control of club policies seem to be guided by the two philosophies: "The club can do no wrong" and "The end always Justifies the means". Contrary to your observation that the spnwncrs of "account 307" were prompted by watching the "so cially correct clubs", I believe some were far more apt to have been conditioned for their malleas ance by years of membership and active participation In the "clubs"'. Your admonitions In "Judge not, lest ye be Judged"- and "Let him who is without sin. cast the first stone" are acknowledged. I make no claim to being "without sin" but I do have a stone of criticism to cast, and believe every citizen has the right to publicly criticize ana uicige tne otllclal acts and omissions of public servants. me man whom I consider chief ly responsible for the setting up and operation of "account 307" is ex-mayor Bob Thompson. He Is the one man who could, and should, have stopped it cold at the coun cil session by declaring the matter out of order and refusing to con sider a motion for adoption of the ordinance. As mayor, with full and sole control over police authority, he could have closed down the rackets at any time. It would be a great public serv ice if you would publish the minutes of the council meeting, at which "account 307" was set up. or that portion of the minutes reciting the procedure on this item. People would then know which councilman odercd Ihe motion for adoption, who seconded II, nnd how the In- dividual eouncllnien voted Interview with the press a few days ago. ex-mayor Thomp son revealed with "utmost candor" (candor about three years de layed) that a group of prominent "business and professional men" thought Ihe "Improvement fund" was a fine thing. If this group of civic leaders was not a figment of the ex-mayor's very vivid iniagi nation, their names should be pub lished. Men who presume to ad vise municipal authority on matters of public policy should have no ob jection to publication of their names. The public Is entitled to know Just who among us advised the adoption of a "deal" which GRACE PETERSON LITTLE SWEDEN Brings You y , MUSIC loto DANCE TC ELMO HAUGH TRIO SMORGASBORD SERVED AS USUAL SPECIAL" JOY'S BARBECUED SPARE RIBS 571.1 So. 6th St. has brought us the dubious distinc tion of being the only city in the state, or may be anywhere, that will have a swimming pool built witn substantial help of revenue from officially uninhibited sex ex pression There are . lots of us ordinary folks in the community who will always wonder if the people who dreamed up "account 307" were motivated by something more than gaining revenue Just for the city. It really requires more naivete than many people can muster to believe that a man will violate his oath of office for no other purpose than to help the community. So, Mr. Jenkins, in such cases let's not rationalize nor minimize. You too, sir, as publisher of the only local newspaper have a pub lic, trust. Please don't use It to cushion the fall of idols with feet of clay, even though just criticism should involve the president of high school Parents and Patrons, the head hoot of the Owl hoots, and the roving ambassador of the cham ber of commerce. j There need be no thought of re-1 venge for public betrayal the Cre ator nas ocen quoted as saying that revenge is His domain but let's not condone bad faith. We should try to forgive the trespasses of both friend and enemy, but In no creed are we taught to condone their transgressions. 1. P. (Jack) Linman 39 Nevada Ave. INDIAN COUNCIL With ail of the government in vestigations and expensive meet ings that have been held regarding the termination of the Klamath In dian reservation, it seems to me that someone should see what a hollow mockery the Indian Coun cil really Is. Or could it be possible that It is being used to make the Indians ap pear incompetent? . The majority of members that form the council and business com mittees are like parasites looking for personal gain and a few free jneals. They are not the true voice of the Klamath people, as most of the self-respecting members seldom have time to attend those meet ings. Tile Indian Council is like a can cer that is slowly but surely destroy ing tne reservation and should be abolished. f Minerva Melte t Chlloquln, Ore. HISTORY CHANGED? Hear me out. I have been a resi dent in Klamath Falls since 1932. History could easily have been changed If the D A. had resided In Llnkvillc; but, I doubt if our prom inent people would allow Ihe his tory book to be revised. I can proudly, truthfully say this city is not a breeding ground for so called vice. Prostitution, yes, bjt no harm done. Klamath Falls trudged a long way since the younger days oi Linkville. It- was accomplished without vice. If I may add a word or two for the people, we don't earn a living or feed our families by reading law books. The only book we read is on Sunday, In church, the Holy Bible. I have nothing to comment con cerning prostitution, merely the term "vice!" The city's law en forcement does quite well holding down the various crimes committed throughout the city and suburbs, regardless what the D.A. savs or does. One man can't whip the world by a flick of one little finger, or have people hop. skip or Jump because the master has spoken. , 8. W. Tripp Klamath Falls Phone 7474 By Jimmy Hatlo i James Marlbw WASHINOTON W The Senate started 1954 fast. Then' It bogged down on the Idea of amending the Constitution. Now it's playing by ear. Right after returning In January it gave quick approval for this country's Joining Canada in de veloping the St. Lawrence seaway. That was a step it hadn't been willing to take in the past 20 years. Tins time it was spurred on by President Eisenhower, who backed the seaway, plus notice from Canada she would act alone if Congress balked. Then the Republican senate lead er, Ssn. Knowland of California, trotted out something which Eisen hower didn't approve. That was the proposal by Sen. Bricker (R-Ohlo) to amend the Constitution so as to limit the scope of treaties negotiated by the President and ratified by the Sen ate, and to provide for congres sional regulation of executive agreements not submitted io the Senate. Until Eisenhower took a stand against it, saying it would ham string a president in foreign af fairs It seemed the Senate might approve. Bricker had a lot of support un til then. Then his supporters be gan to melt away. That didn't atop days of debate though. That was to be expected: Brok er's amendment involved Supreme Court decisions, treaties, agree ments, and acts of Congress going far back In history. It was a law yer's Held day. Soon it became clear the Brick er amendment had no chance as It stood. Still, there was nnd ap. parently still Is quite a bit of Sen ate sentiment for some kind of constitutional restriction on treat ies and agreements. Those who urge It argue like this: states and individuals need to be protected against action by some future president infringing v.. ..ivii inna uj iiuerues. Just as it seemed the whole Idea of an amendment might go out the wuiuow, aen. ueorge (D - Ga) came up with one of his own. This was a modified version of Ihe one Bricker ofered. The White nouse didn't accept that one either. But there was a sliaht dlfor- ence between the way Bricker of- icrea nis amendment and the way George produded his. For two years this Senate Ju- aiciary committee considered Bricker's proposal, held hearings, heard witnesses, took Its time. Then it sent to the full Senate for debate a proposed amendment which was not quite what Bricker offered but still bore his name. The proposal by Oeorge, al though he may have consulted many of the same staff experts and lawyers who advised the Ju diciary Committee, was not the subject of any hearings or commit tee study. 3t has been considered only on the floor and In confer ences with administration officials. Now Bricker is savina- he anil George may get together and agree on language in an amend ment, potn could back. This attempt to write out a con stitutional amendment without more hearings and discussion has been criticized by some senators as a too-hasty attempt to make a change In handling foreign af fairs, since the language some dnv might be given an interpretation not intended now. .Yesterday some constitutional lawyers like, John w. Davis were quoted as saying they didn't know what the language in Oeorgc's amendment meant. ' In spite of all the present talk there can be no change in the Constitution unless It is approved by two third.-i of the Senate and House present at vollng time, and 6 of the 48 state legislatures. liana Norland Fire Insurance.

Sure, I've lived in Klamath for It yrs, and I've enjoyed my games at the golf club, the Elks, and now the Eagles, but I'm not proud of the gambling machines the boys have there. It-seems to me that vou were trying to change tne sub ject when you Inferred that no re forms are in order unless every thing Is changed at once. You know that It can't be done In that way, and often one step at a time. Is au you can nope ior. I don't attend any church, nor do I know any of these local min isters, but at least they should be given credit for attacking what was a most obvious sore-spot- to all. You would be surprised at the large number of people in town who are growing increasingly sus picious of the local police force and the present mayor. Something had to be done, and your editorial completely missed the boat! - Can it be that you are sulking in your corner, because the PortJ land papers came down here and did something that you should have done first? What's happened to the good old days when news papers did a little crusading for honesty in government? Can it be that you are getting old, and as you edge along are becoming more bitter and cynical about human values? I can still remember when you used to have a little fight for de- cent living in your bones, and you'd stick your neck out for some neces sary reforms. What's' happened? My neighbors' wives were in for coffee this morning and tney are all mad as hops at your apologetic statements for dishonesty in local government. They all (greed that a few well placed funetals in town would be a good thing. Don't give them a chance to prove themselves rightl Give cred it where it Is due, and let's cut out this trying to cover up a rotten situation. I know you can do It If you want to, but lots of folks are losing all faith in your judgment. You can still win them back if you want to. Lets do better,- I'm sorry I can't sign my name but I've got to do business with you and I don't want you to get sore at rae.

LEGALIZE? Jusi a few lines in regard to the much talked about vice conditions in this city. What a pity that It takes such a filthy, degrading sit uation as this to get publicity for our city I Many of us wish to see the clamps put securely on prostitution In our city but everyone knows that closing these houses will not solve this question, as you well know, this sort of thing has gone on for centuries and will continue for years to come or as long as there are human beings. Would-it not be bet ter to legalize prostitution in our city and keep these people in their own houses instead of closing these houses and thereby making it pos sible for the3e prostitutes to keep up tneir trade in hotel rooms or they can move to outskirts of town, rent trailer space in a trailer court and ply their trade unmolested? In this case, no one would bene fit by this except persons directly involved. Seems like if we have to have such conditions it would be better to legalize this business and collect large taxes on such and make it public. By this I mean let the public know Just what this mon ey is being used for. Otherwise if they move to trailer courts out side of the city limits, the city will benefit, in only one way removing them from the city. Seems like when we folks voted for the new swimming pool, we understood it was to be paid for out of new tax levies. Well what did they use the money for that has been collected and will be collected from now on by raising our prop erty taxes If. the money for the swimming pool has already been oonaiea ana as money from these bawdy houses and accepted by our city officials? Really It is nuite a standing Joke not the 'House Jack BUiir out "The Swimmlnc Poo! that Vice and Prostitution Built." But closing these houses of nrns. litutlon is to endanger the welfare of our women folk In the cliv. throwing them on the mercy of trie kind of persons that patronize these house;. J. R.

In later years Joaquin wrote a book about Walker. While it is suspected that he met Walker and probably was with him for a short time In the tropics, Miller never would admit, even to liij best friend, that such was the case. Yet without a doubt, It was the Walker Influence that played an important part - in Joaquin's life in the vlcinlty-of Mout Shasta and turned the sentiment of local settlers against him, with a bitter ness which followed him all the years of his life.

He landed in Lower California, and on Jan. 18, 1854. he proclaimed this and the neighboring State of Sonora and- independent republic. Starvation and 'Mexican attacks led to the abandonment of this enter prise, and Walker resumed his journalistic work In California. On May 4. 1855. Walker aonin sailed from San Francisco with 56 followers, this time for Nieara. gua. where he had been invited dv one of the bel leerant factions to come to its aid. In October, Walker seized a steamer on Lake Nicaragua belonging to the Acces. sory Transit Company, a corpora tion oi Americans engaged In trans porting ireignt and passengers across the isthmus, and was thus enabled to surprise and capture Granada the capital and the strong hold of the opponents, by this action Walker became master of Nicara gua.
