$65 or serve 2V,s days in jail.
According to Investigating Offi
cer Charles Shipman, Rutleage
was drivuig south on East Main

the road ahead of him. Because
Rutledge had no brakes, he pulled
into the left lane to avoid hitting
the truck, only to be faced by an
oncoming truck, Shipman said.
To avoid the second northbound
truck, Rutledge pulled over onto
the curb, and went 27 feet before
reaching Darrow Street, where he
attempted a left turn, Shipman re
ported. Shipman said Rutledge was un
able to turn on Darrow, which was
very slick and plowed Into a used
car lot owned by Fred Joslln. In
the car lot. he hit two autos.
knocking one of them 15 feet from
where it was parked, and knocked

hack into Darrow Street where he
stopped 42 feet from one ol the
autos in the car lot.
The northbound truck jammed

two autos following it piled up, ac
cordion fashion. These were driv
en by May Barnadine Brltton, 310

Lawsuits Filed
Against GN
Two lawsuits seeking damages
totaling $41,586.03 were filed in cir
cuit court Friday against the Great

Tne suits arose from a train-auto

Plaintiffs are Arthur S. Kraus
of Rio Linda, California, driver of
the aulo Involved, .and Patscy

In their suits, the plaintiffs al
lege that the Great Northern
stopped a train on the crossing
at Altamont Drive, ahd did not
set up any warning that the train
was standing there, despite the
fact that It was dark at the time
of the Incident. The failure to pro
vide any warning, they said, con
stitutes negligence on the part of
the railway.
Kraus is asking $20,000 general
damages and $1,144.55 special dam
ages, and the woman is asking
$20,000 general damages and $441.50

four months, with the loss of $750
In wages.

New Housing
(Continued from page 1)
housing In the Klamath Falls area.
The air officers said that the
building of military units near oth
er bases in the U.S. has never en
tirely solved the housing problems
near these bases.
, It was also pointed out that this
military housing will not take care
of any of the civilian workers to
be employed by the USAF on the
base. It has been estimated that
between 125 to 150 civilians will
be employed In various jobs by the
USAF. . .
In addition to these civilian
workers, it Is expected that many
service trades workers will come
to the Klamath area to serve the
military personnel. This will furth
er expand the need, for bousing, it
was pointed out.
FURTHER EXPLANATION
In further explaining the contin
uing need for more housing in this
area, it was explained that statis
tics show that the ratio of service
trades civilians to rriilltary person
nel is usually one-for-one. The
USAF has said that by the end of
1956 they expect to have 1.009 offi
cers and airmen at the Klamath
Falls base.
The Air Force officers said that
the key personnel of the base,
both enlisted men and officers, will
undoubtedly be assigned quarters
in the military housing project.
They pointed out that this will
leave a cross-section of the mili
tary personnel to be housed In
town.' It Is the policy of the USAF
to house its key pilot and ground
personnel as near to the base as
possible, the air officers said. This
is necessary to enable the fastest
possible manning of the jet base
during alerts, they said.
