Klamath County ranchers were told Thursday afternoon llial I hey may expect a emit inual ion of I he recent trend of having larger larms ana lower ot them, and that a must for profitable farming and ranching is full utilization of scien tific developments and new meth ods. The information was extended by Marion U. Thomas, agricultur al economist at Oregon Slate Col lege, when addressing the agricul tural outlook conference at Mills auditorium. In other portions uf his talk Thomas did not foresee nny Im mediate decline in potato prices, and advised that ranchers not hold their feeders for the linished cat tle market over too long a period. In other reports submitted dur ing the meeting John Marshall first appraised the cattle picture from a national level. "We may expect the cattle number to re main about the same during 1958," he said, "and to reach a low dur ing HKiO. After that it is expected that there will bo an upswing in the number, with the puces ex pected to remain fairly good until at least 1963." lie added that the cattle output is then expected to balance with the market demand. On the county level. Marshall said the beef committee t e e I s there is a place lor more feed lots in Klamath County, and that ranchers should explore a pattern! lor conducting mure spnnj and. summer feeding programs. During his submission of the torage report, lorn Wallers Jr. said the alfalfa raisers should act aggressively in the immediate fu ture tu maintain the Basin's all.illa market in the Mcdlurd valley, lie pointed out that recent trends in dicate that Basin producers arc losing portions ot the m.iikii In other phases of Ins report Wallers said the survival key lor the forage producers is the lull utilization of methods designed to produce more per acre. He ex pressed the thought that land nl not be cheaper in the immediate future, that a decline in operation al expenses is not anticipated. nu mai ine H.isin producer must now concentrate on gelling the most out of his land, and main tain and expand the valley mar ket When submitting the home eco nomics report Mrs. Lone Smith (aid farm families and the house wives arc in need o( more inloi ' mafion related to credit buying She further maintained that aomething should ba done about the "deplorable condition" of the county dumping areas and that the home economics committee feels that the county should hire someone to enlorce the dumping laws. With regard lo the poultry pic ture in Klamath County, Roy 'flood ing said ihe raisers nro being forced to larger (locks because of less profit per unit, and that many of the smaller producers are being squeezed mil of the business. lie added that the poultry com mittee feels that egg prices dur ing the next six months will be a few cents higher per dozen.

FAY AP Military Affairs Reporter ABOARD XUCLER SUBMA RINE SEAWOLF m-Somewhere in the sea around this ?'oiii-dow ered submarine may be a 'Soviet sub, lurking in deep waters off the Atlantic Coast. The Seawolf has been given the job of trying to find that Russian submarine if it is there. It's Ihe first t:ne the Navy has ordered an atomic undersea craft In The- Day's lews (Continued from Page One) War is a terrible thing in any case. But a DYNASTIC war is a PARTICULARLY terrible thing. If you have any doubts about that, you d better get out the books and read up on the War of the Roses. The War of the Roses was a dynastic war between the House of lorn ana tnc Mouse ol Lancaster. It started when there was a break in the royal line that is to sav. when the king had no direct heir. When the War of the Roses be gan, England was prosperous and ner people were as happy as com mon, ordinary people could be in those days. When it ended. Eno. ianu was a snammcs. In conclusion When we change from a Rcpubli can to a Democratic administra tion, or vice versa, the political campaign that brings the change aoout is no; to be a mess. But our political eaniDaiens. with all their clup.rap and tommyrot, are far FAR better than the dynas tic ruckuscs that so often ensue when a king or an emperor or a prince or a Big Chief dies without a direct heir. The two Klamath Falls school boards elected to contribute anoth er $1,000 each to the city-county planning commission, but with each grant the member directed that County Clerk Harold Ashley write the commission suggesting that a new method of financing the planning work be developed. The members of both boards pointed out that the first $1,000 contributions from Ihe school dis tricts were made two years ago with the understanding that thev were only a means of getting the operation started, and that it would not be a continued practice. The high school hoard of directors has instructed Clerk Ashley to inform the commission that this is the ti ers, to produce high quality pota-jnnl '"" o( contribution from the toes on only the high yield land ulaptahtc to spud raising as a means of maintaining the stan dards and controlling the volume of low grade production. Exploration of the possibility of establishing processing facilities lor low grade spuds was also en couraged by the potato commit lee.

Inspector To Arrive In KF Inspector Albert Frock of the Berkeley, California police de partment will arrive in Klamath alls Monday to assist with the eorganization of the police depart- ment. The mayor and city coun cil nave requested that Frock as sist Charles A. Howard, newlv an pomiea cniei 01 police, with the reorganization recommendat ions which were made by Inspector Richard Young, also of the Berke ley department. Frock is a retired inspector re cently returned from Ciuam where he installed a modern police sys tem at the request of the island's governor general. He is a veteran of more than .10 years in police work, and will stay in Klamath Falls about two months when helping lo install the new system. The council orginally requested lhat Inspector Richard Young, who surveyed the depart ment and made the recommenda tions, return to Klamath Falls to supervise installation of the sys tem. However. Chief Holstrom of the Berkeley department reported that Young had other commitments and would not be ablo to perform the work. He recommended that Frock take Ihe assignment. Mayor Lawrence Slater was in Berkeley Wednesday to make final arrange ments with Inspector Frock. The exact cost of having the in stallation work has not been determined.

When the Seawolf started out from port, it was headed for a routine training cruise. But an or der, radioed to the sub a few hours after it sailed, converted its mission into a hunt for an uniden tified submarine or submarines- believed sighted in this area. There would be no great sur prise if this search eventually should identify the reported un identified submarine as Russian. The submarines of all major pow ers roam tar. II they stay outside the territorial waters of a nation and commit no hostile act it would be difficult to drive them awav or take action against them. Since about 1950 there have been repeated reports of sightings of unidentified submarines off the East and West coasts of the United States. In recent days, there was a fresh flurry of such reported sight ings: At wasmngton. the Navv said, without elaboration, that na- al vessels had been sent out to check on the reports. Ihe Seawolf isn t workine alone She is serving as command ship of Ihe search force, directing ships and aircraft. Cmdr. Richard B. Laning, skipper of the Seawolf and a man who knows undersea warfare from Pacific campaigns of World War II, sits at the nerve center of the search. An atomic submarine has built- in, natural features needed in anti-submarine work. It has high speed underwater; it can dive far deeper than most conventional submarines: it can stay down for weeks; it is elaborately rigged with new detection gear: it is irmed with target-seeking tome- docs. For reasons of security, details un how the . Seawolf 's hunt has progressed to this point, or of the precise methods used, mav not he disclosed. For days, the search has been long and painstaking. There have been a few possible contacts, faint tracings on sonar screens which might or might not be a submarine. But the images were "soft" they couldn't be classified in certainty. Then there was a particular hour in that cycle of time which runs on in a submarine where there is no dny or night. The Seawoll had planed un near enoinh the surface to use her ra dio. From the air came a search plane's report thai it had glimpsed sometning. The Seawolf dropped down. The command came: "Flank speed!" Atomic power poured in. The Seawolf was like a huge, swift fish, boring swiftly through the water. The spot reported by the plane is reached. The Seawolf had been runnine deep. Now a new command comes. Take her deeper, very deep hun dreds and hundreds of feet deep. There is silence in the boat. Men speak softly. Stillness except for the electronic voice of the hunter, the pinging sound of sonor impulses questing into the black depths. - The high speed has been cut down. The Seawolf creeps, stalks stealthily, listens, looks with its electronic eyes. Is that a contact" The echoing note bounces back, stronger and stronger. The blip of green light on the sonar screen seems to be come firm. It could be a submarine. The sonar indicates it mav be one. But the machine might be wrong. It could be a fish or whale, even at these depths. Perhans it's a track of temperature layers. You can t be certain. This is Ihe point where the story must stop. jr. -v. r 1 .

Calif. tA Kl.nm. ath Falls, Ore., mother has won custody of her wealthy 13-year-old son in a San Diego habeas corpus proceeding that ended a five-year separation. Ihe boy, Allen Linford Richards. is one-sixteenth Klamath lndion on his mother's side. As a member of the Klamath Tribe he is entitled to a $58,000 settlement if he wants his tribal rigms to timber lands converted to cash, the mother's San Diego attorney, O'Neill P. Martin, said. Superior Court Judge Bonsall Noon ruled Thursday that t h e mother, now Mrs. Doris Duarte of Klamath Falls, is entitled to the son. The boy had been livinu with his father. Ralph W. Richards of suburban Spring Valley. The mother filed a divorce suit against Richards in March loss in Klamath County Circuit Court. A decree and custodv of the son was awarded to her in 1954. But the father had left with th enn earner. ftirs. uuarte earned nf iho boy's whereabouts last December after Richards filed suit here for his custody and Mrs. Duarte was served with papers in the case. She filed an answer and also countered with the habeas corpus has been in the United Slates on previous visits as a guest of rel atives. During these visits in her teens, she traveled widely The tall, black-eyed, dark-haired girl with alabaster skin and infec tious smile, speaks English with scarcely a hint of her native Port uguese as well as French, German, Latin and Spanish. Comparing the educational sys tem in the United States with that of her homeland, Heloisa said, flashing her lovely smile. "I've had only 12 years education, you see, and I'm already a junior in your university." That illustrates the emphasis on education for those in Brazil who can afford t attend schools. Schools in her country, exeont for those for the well-to-do are crowd ed and co-educational schools are "taboo." Heloisa, who was 21 this month, hopes to teach when she returns to South America but would love to have a second year lellovvship to complete her senior year at the university. Poor roads in much of the coun try are promoting the rapid de velopment of air travel she said Thd airport in Sao Paulo is the second largest in the world serv ing a city of three and one half million persons. Questioned about ooDOrtunitipc for women in the professions, the fields of education, and business, Heloisa said, that because of the old cultural standards women have louna t difficult to break ihp chains of tradition, but the bar riers are being lowered. She par ticularly was interested in the fact that in the United States women worked, not because of necessity in many cases, but for the love of working. Under the educational exchanun system, two Oregon girls are study ing in South America, Jaqueline Saylor, Salem, at the University of Mendoza, Argentine, and Leona Pumola, Clatskanie, at Montevi deo, Uruaguay.
