Parking Plan Passes;
Funds Request Tabled
The off-street parking problem
and the future prospects of the
downtown business area of Klam
ath Falls were the dominating
gubjects at the regular Monday
night session of the city council.
A group of downtown merchants
appeared before the council to re
quest that it form an off-street
parking district which they, the
merchants, would finance. Follow
ing action cn this request, . the
merchants then asked the council
to appropriate both the money
from parking meters and the oc
cupation tax income to them for
the purpose of purchasing off
street parking facilities.

'The National Education Associ
ation expresses disappointment
with President Eisenhower's billion
dollar education program. It calls
tbe program inadequate and says
the President has greatly; under
estimated existing needs.
; It adds: . -
; "THE FEDERAL GOVERN
MENT SHOULD GIVE TOP PRI
ORITY TO CLASSROOM BUILD
ING AND HIGHER SALARIES
FOB TEACHERS."
In this land of the free and the
home of the brave, everybody is
entitled to his opinion.
Everybody is entitled to disagree
with opinions which he regards as
unsound. I find it impossible to
agree with the NEAs assertion
that in the present emergency the
government should give TOP
PRIORITY to classroom .building.
Personally, I have had a red
faced feeling for years that edu
cated Europeans are better edu
cated than educated Americans.
There are many reasons, of course,
why this might be.
According to European theories
of long standing, education is a
privilege. The European idea is
that if you don't want to take ad
vantage of your opportunity to gain
a well-balanced education you
should GET OUT and give your
place to someone who does.
But that is another question.
Let's get back to the National
Education Association's contention
that at this critical moment in our

room "building.
In Europe, school buildings are
good, but not fabulous-. The realis
tic Europeans go on the theory
that the learning that is gained in
school is more important than the
building in which the learning is
gained.
In the situation in which we
presently find ourselves, I can't
help agreeing with their theory.
Let's dig a little deeper into this
subject.
Assuming that - something is
wrong with our school system
that it isn't all it should be if our
children are to be properly trained
to face and solve the problems that
will be theirs the trouble isn't
necessarily ALL IN THE
SCHOOLS.
A wise and thoughtful and realis
tic teacher friend said to me the
other day:
"If parents will send us prop
erly disciplined students, WE WILL
TURN OUT ENOUGH COMPE
TENT SCIENTISTS AND ENGI
NEERS TO MEET OUR NA
TION'S NEEDS."
This teacher friend added:
"I heard a mother say the other
day: 'I just can't do a thing with
Johnny. I feel immense relief when
I get him off to school where it
is the TEACHER'S job to handle
him.' "
That raises this question:

1955, and enacted into law at the
most recent assembly.
Drew pointed out that it was vi
tal to preserve the high-value of
the downtown district, and that the
merchants must face the present
traffic and off-street parking
problems.
The private parking areas are
not sufficient to handle the needs
now, Drew said. He pointed out
that he could see the city growth
attaining approximately 60,000 peo
ple in this area in the future.
How will we handle the traffic
then," he asked, "where will we
put the cars?"
Eighth Street should be re
opened," he suggested, "in order
that we might move the cars
around the downtown business
rea more easily. Off-street park
ing must be made available im
mediately to keep the downtown
area together.
If something is not done,
Drew warned, "it will be diffi
cult to protect the high value dis
trict. A continuing plan must
be put into practice to keep the
city alive and alert downtown.
Drew also pointed out that since
half of the taxes collected by the
city comes from this area, a fall
in value of this area would bring
a heavier burden on property own
ers elsewhere in the city.
Summing up his presentation,
Drew suggested two courses of
action which the council should
follow. "First," he suggested, "the
council should start proceedings to
form an off-street parking district,
and second, the council should cer
tify the city for urban renewal
funds.
It was pointed out in the en
suing discussion that the present
assessed value of the downtown
area to be involved in the district
amounts to slightly more than two
million dollars, and that the
money to be raised to purchase
off-street parking facilities would
total about $300,000.
Problems of methods of assess
ment against the property to be
included in the district had not
yet been worked out by the group,
and while they admitted there
might be some problems involved,
they appealed to the council to
form the district and then grapple
with the problems.
The council agreed to the re
quest, and asked City Attorney
Henry Perkins to draw up the
necessary resolution to begin for
mation of the district.
Al Haltan. 819 Pacific Terrace,
presented the Merchant Commit
tee's second request for council
action.
In requesting that the city set
aside parking meter revenues and
occupation tax income for the pur
pose ot acquiring oft-street pant
ing facilities, Hattan pointed out
that the meters were there in die
first place because the business
places attracted the people,
"There is a need to keep those
currently shopping downtown com
ing, and to attract others by mak
ing it easier to park with more
parking spaces available," Hattan
said. The money in the meters.
he continued, "according to our
way of thinking should be used to
improve the present parking fa
cilities." Discussing the budget problem
such a move would create, Hat
tan said, "We realize that the city
has use for every penny of reve
nue it. can obtain, but' speaking
for the merchants of the downtown
area who pay about half of the
city taxes, we want the council to
increase levies for the various de
partments so they can release the
parking meter money for use in
making the downtown area a big
shopping center."

The spokesman, press officer

as well as a speech the Soviet
leader made last Wednesday at

"We cannot believe that the

be intended as an adequate re

it had confidence in the national

The pledge was delivered to the

that followed the ouster of dictator
Marcos Perez Jimenez.
Defense Minister Jesus Maria

armed forces were "united in trie
most absolute form in their deci
sion to support absolutely the
present government." Larrazabal
declared the pledge gave his five

arrival in Ciudad Trujillo, Peron

Junta sources said peace had
been restored in 93 per cent of
the country. Threats of a counter
revolt by followers of the ousted
dictator apparently were disap
pearing. But vigilante teams and
junta raiders still scoured outly
ing cities and towns, rounding up
scores of former secret police and

Army Ready
To Launch
Space Moon
CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. W-
A mighty Jupiter-C missile stood
poised on its launching pad here
Tuesday, ready for its effort to
propel a 30-pound American earth
satellite into space. The blastoff
is expected Wednesday or Thurs
day. This Is a chance the Army has
long awaited. It claims it could
have fired a satellite into orbit
as far back as 1955, long before
the Russian Sputniks, if it had
not been ordered to stand aside
and let the Navy do the job with
its Vanguard rocket.
Now, in the wake of the Navy's
latest failure to get the tempera
mental Vanguard off the ground,
there is furious activity around
the Jupiter-C firing platform. Ob
viously, the Army has its go-ahead
and is close to its zero hour.
The weather is perfect. The ta'l
Jupiter tower stands in bright
sunshine and workmen swarming
over it can be seen clearly from
the beaches outside the top-secret
firing range.
Nobody talks officially but
optimism is high.
Many experts have expressed
the opinion that the Jupiter-C, a
creation of the German scientist
Wernher von Braun, has a better
chance than the Vanguard to put
the first American "moon" into
orbit around the earth.
The first Vanguard blew up on
its firing pad here Dec. 6 after an
immense publicity buildup. Last
week, a four-day effort to shoot a
second Vanguard ended in failure.
Bad weather and mechanical dif
ficulties were blamed.
Following thai attempt, the Van
guard was dismantled and there
seemed no chance that it could
be put back together and readied
for shooting for several days. That
cleared the way for the flight of
the Jupiter-C.
The Jupiter-C satellite will
weigh 29.7 pounds, nine, times
more than the little aluminum
sphere the Vanguard has tried to
launch.
Wreck Injures
Baseball Star
GLEN COVE, N.Y. Wl Base
ball's Roy Campanella, star
catcher of the Dodgers, fractured
his neck in an early morning car
wreck here Tuesday. Doctors sub
sequently performed a four-hour,
20-minute operation.
They did not immediately make
public a report on it and there
was no word as to when further
information might be given out.
Campanella came out of the op-
crating room about 1 p.m.
There seemed little question
that the home-run slugging
catcher's big league baseball ca
reer was at an end, however good
his recovery from the injury
might be.
A team of seven surgeons had
sought to relieve a pinch of the
spinal cord which caused almost
complete paralysis of Campanel
la s body.
He was pinned In the wreckage
half an hour after the accident
at 3:30 a.m., and was pronounced
in critical condition following his
removal to Glen Cove Community
Hospital.
The 36-year-old Campanella,
who has been beset by injuries
of one kind or another during his
long baseball career, was return
ing alone to his home here fol
lowing a New York television ap
pearance when the mishap oc
curred.
The crash made noise so great
that a number of persons rushed
Irom their homes in the vicinity
to investigate. Among them was
a physician, Dr. W. S. Gurnee.
Dr. Gurneo gave Campanella an
injection but said later the base-
hall player felt no sensation from
the needle and that "it doesn't
look good for his baseball ca
reer." Police informed Campanclla's
wife at home and took her to the
hospital. The couple have six chil
dren, ranging in age from 4 to 18.
Only Monday the Dodgers had
signed reserve catcher Rube
Walker. For the position they also
have John Roxborough and some
youngsters.

McElroy Reports US
Military Position Okay
WASHINGTON Wl Secretary
of Defense McElroy told senators
Tuesday that "on the whole our
military position is sound. At the
same time he urged speedy appro
priation of more than a billion
dollars to step up programs for
ballistic missiles and related de
fenses.
McElroy was lead off witness in
a closed-door session of trie ben
ate Appropriations Committee on
an emergency money bill contain
ing 81,260,000,000 of new funds
plus transfer authority on $150,
000.000 of old funds.
The measure won unanimous
passage in the House last Thurs
day and is expected to get similar
Senate treatment, possibly with
some additions.
It was McElroy's initial appear
ance before the Senate purse
string committee as secretary of
defense. He took over the post
from Charles E. Wilson, auto in
dustry executive, after- the end of
the last session of Congress.
McElroy said the emergency
fund measure "is in effect, an ad
vance action of the 1959 program"
already under consideration by the
House.
That was a reference to the de
fense money bill for the fiscal
year that begins next July 1.
McElroy's prepared testimony
was made available to newsmen
outside the closed-door session.
Accompanying him were assist
ant Secretary of Defense McNeil,
sometimes called the financial
manager of the Pentagon, and
Gen. Nathan F. Twining, chair
man of the Joint Chiefs of Staff.
In advance of the committee
meeting Sen. Russell (D-Ga) said
he is afraid President Eisenhow
er's defense budget does not pro
vide enough military "strength in
being. He predicted Congress will
put up more money for the stra
tegic Air Command.
The secretary also disclosed that
more than half of 135 'millions of
emergency funds voted last year
had been used in pushing missile
projects. He asked authority to
transfer additional funds which
' will enable us to explore promptly
any break-throughs or unantici
pated technological develop
ments."
This request was approved by
the House.
Russell, chairman of the Senate
Armed Services Committee, said
in an interview he will support
a move to provide funds for pur
chase of additional long-range
bombers while missiles are being
perfected.
We have got to step up our
Strategic Air Command to in
crease our strength in being," he
said. Despite the development of
missiles, the manned bomber Is
not obsolete. It Is going to be with
us a long, long time." .. .
The Senate Preparedness sub
