THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 1. 1955 HERALD AND NEWS. KLAMATH FALLS, OREGON PAGE FIVE Stevenson To Resume Party Work WASHINGTON ( Adlai E. Stevenson returns to the political platform this fall with Wisconsin and New York appearances whicn may precede a November an nouncement in Chicago that he wants the Democratic party presi dential nomination again. A Democratic National Commit tee spokesman said today Steven son will resume party activity aft er a self-enlorced layoff since last year with a speech at the Wiscon sin Democratic State Convention in Greenbay Oct. 7-9. The 1952 nominee will then Join former President Truman and New York's Gov. Averell Harriman for what may be a significant appear ance at a SlOO-a-plate Democratic dirlner in New York City Oct. 31. Stevenson also has been booked as one of the speakers, along with Truman and other party leaders, at a meeting of national commit tee members and state chairmen in Chicago Nov. 17-19. A Stevenson supporter said that while there might be some "raised eyebrows" at the choice of a party committee dinner for the occasion, he sees no reason why the former Illinois governor should not an nounce In the Stockyards Amphi theater site where he was nomi nated In 1952 that he is available again. Stevenson's New York appear ance took on added significance when it was learned that he. Har riman and Truman had been se lected personally as speakers by Carmine DeSapio, Democratic na tional committeeman and Tam many leader. DeSapio has given all the signs that he Is running Harriman for president. Harriman has said he is for Stevenson but few party as sociates have any doubt he would become quickly available for the nomination if he thought Stevenson couldn't make the grade. DeSapio's Inclusion of Stevenson among the speakers was inter preted as indicating he isn't ready ,yet to go all out for Harriman and isn't cutting his lines to the btevenson camp. - .

Yreka Zoning Protest Heard YREKA The Yreka city coun cil is considering the possibility of changing the present zoning ordi nance as a result of protests to the Pacific Telephone and Telegraph Company's plan to build a dial switching center in a residential district near the city's business section. The council held no meeting this week and it is expected that the matter will be brought up again at next week's session. City Attorney J. P. Correia told council members that the present zoning ordinance does not bar cer tain types of businesses tio:n be ing started in residential areas. Correia was instructed to request model ordinances from the League of California Cities for the guid ance of the council. Protests were received from cit izens who expressed the belief that property values in the area would be lowered. The telephone com pany wants to set up the building at the proposed site because of cost considerations. Company spokesmen said there would be no traffic in and out of the building because it would be used only as a dial switching center. Only main tenance vehicles servicing equip ment in the building would be in the area, they said. IMPROVED VIENNA, Austria dfl Czecho slovakia's Communist president.
