VWI Soldier
Never Alone
WASHINGTON (AP)-Never for
a moment in 21 years despite
wars, storms, heat or cold has
America's unknown .soldier ol
World War I been left unattended.
A 24-hour vigil has been kept at
his tomb since 1937 as a sacred
trust. Prior to that, from the en
tombment in 1921, an honor guard
had mounted watch only in day
time.
The nation, for which this uni
dentified man gave his life, picks
the best of its Army infantrymen
for the signal honor of walking a
lonely post in a cemetery with
97,000 dead.
Through the years, the routine
has become rigid.
In one hour, the sentry at the
tomb of the unknown soldier in
Arlington National Cemetery can
be clocked walking his post just
42 times.
The cadence is 128 steps per
minute. The sentry takes 21 steps
from one end of the post to the
other and pauses, immobile, at
each end. He carries a .30-caliber
M l rifle with a chrome plated
bayonette. He wears Army dress
uniform blue in winter, tan tropi
cal worsted in summer wi t h
white gloves.
None of this routine will be
changed at Arlington when two
more unknown servicemen are
buried nearby on Friday.
The 3rd Infantry Regiment at
nearby Ft. Myer mans this post.
Handpicked infantrymen from
units all over the world are sent
here to try out for the honor guard
company. Military bearing, intel

Rate Hike
Pacific Telephone Wednesday
filed new schedules with Oregon
Public Utility Commissioner How
ard Morgan that will mean in
creases in monthly phone bills
averaging about 2'j cents a day
per telephone throughout the state.
However, R. C. Bailey, Klam
ath Falls manager for the tele
phone company, said that federal
income and other taxes would take
about lVi cents of the increase
sought.
The company s position was
summed up in a statement is
sued in Portland by F. A. Dress
lar, vice president and general
manager.
"Higher state and local taxes
increased wage payments as well
as rising construction costs have
combined to undermine Pa
cific Telephone's earnings on its
operations in Oregon," Dresslar
said, "and the trend is down
ward." Under the new schedules filed
with the commissioner, Klamath
Falls telephone users would pay
increases ranging from 15 cents
to 50 cent a month for residence
service. Business service rates
would go up from 25 cents to $1
a month.
Residence rates In Bly would in
crease from 10 cents to 45 cents
a month, and business service
rates from 20 cents to 50 cents
a month.
Bailey said the schedules also
include increases in installation
charges and in some long distance
charges on calls within the state.
Bailey gave as an example the
charge for the first three minutes
for a day, station to station call
from Klamath Falls to Medford
which would go up from 50 cents
to 55 cents, not including federal
tax. 1
Chamber Keeps
Weekend Hours
The Klamath County Chamber
of Commerce will take another
step toward better serving tour
ists on June 1 when it opens its
doors weekends for information
dissemination.
R. Frank Tucker, chamber man
ager, says that the office at 323
Main will be open from 9 a.m.
to 5 p.m. Saturdays and Sundays
during the summer to answer tour
ist questions. This is the first such
program in Oregon, and possibly
is unique in the nation, according
to the chamber official.
"The regular chamber program
will continue to be carried on
weekdays," Tucker said, "but we
feel that in view of the antici
pated four to seven million peo
ple who are expected to visit Ore
gon next year during the centen
nial celebration, it is not too early
to start a concentrated program
to encourage them to come, see
and enjoy our City of Sunshine
and the State of Oregon.
Girl Cut After
Crash With Door
Probably everyone has had the
experience of nearly walking into
a deceptively clear - glass door,
realizing just in time that it was
a door.
Eleanor Jenkins. 15, daughter of
Mr. and Mrs. James C. Ferguson,
2102 Eberlein Avenue, had a pain
fully different experience Tuesday
night. She walked or rather, ran
right through.
The accident occurred at the
new Klamath Armory, where El
eanor had accompanied a boy
friend to a meeting of the Oregon
National Guard. Badly cut around
the face, and on both arms and
ankles, she was taken by Peace
Ambulance to Klamath Valley Hos
pital. Nearly two hours of stitch
taking ensued before Eleanor was
allowed to go home.
Mrs. Ferguson reports that El
eanor was feeling "pretty good"
this morning. However, her mouth
was still sore enough that she
hadn't yet been able to eat, and
it will be some time before she
completely recovers from her har
rowing experience.

build its own hospital.
A subcommittee went to Port
land for hearings last September.
its undines were approved by the
parent operations committee for
publication Wednesday.
ine Democratic maiontv said
that until congressional investiga
tions started in 1955 the hospital
was guilty of "wholly uniustifi-
able . . . outright mistreatment
and abuse" of patients.
They said the mentally sick did
not have enough trained persons
to look after them, were given
poor food, were made to work,
and were given dangerous medi
cal treatments that killed some
of them.
The Democrats voted to refer
their findings to the Multnomah
County (Portland) district attor
ney to check for possible viola
tion of Oregon law.
As for Wayne Coe, the hospital
owner, the committee maioritv
said Coe not only paid himself
.mw,o irom 1936 through 1955 but
also charged to company accounts
a quarter of a million, dollars
worth of overseas trips, a beach
home, gardeners' wages and other
personal expenses.
Calling for an Internal Revenue
Service inquiry, the Democrats
said they found the evidence
"abundantly clear that Mr. Wayne
Coe . . . has, throughout the per
iod under investigation, been mo
tivated in his operations Dnman v
by a desire for the highest pos-
sioie proms ratner tnan by a de
sire to provide adequate care for
the patients entrusted to the com
pany." The Republican committeemen
said the Democrats' attention to
Coe's bookkeeping was uncalled
for because they said the Revenue
Service already is checking into
it. coe said incorrect bookkeenmg
was the fault of his auditors and
attorneys.
The Republicans also Questioned
the majority's competence to cri
ticize Morningside's medical prac
tices. They said the American
Psychiatric Assn. rated Morning
side as an "accredited hospital."

Bank Holdup
Leads Found
SILVANA, Wash. (AP) An
FBI spokesman said Wednesday
agents had turned up several
promising leads in the $3,101.30
holdup of the only bank in this
small Snohomish County western
Washington community.
Road blocks and aerial searches
set up after the Tuesday holdup
had failed to locate the two rob
bers. They struck at about 10:30 a.m.
Two employes of the Seattle-First
National Bank branch said one of
the holdup men, described as dap
per and deeply tanned, ordered
them at gunpoint to face the wall.
The other bandit, pistol in hand,
remained in the background.
The first robber ordered Ru
dolph Kylling, the manager, and
Mrs. Alice Jacobs, a cashier, into
the vault and then stuffed cur
rency and silver into a briefcase.
The two escaped in a high-speed
car. Snohomish County sheriff's
officers and State Patrol units
converged on the area, 17 miles
north of Everett. The FBI em
ployed an Air Force helicopter in
an effort to locate the get-away
car.
Investigators said the car
matched the description of one
stolen in Everett Monday.
It was the bank's fourth rob
bery. One was in 1931 and the
same man held it up twice in 1947
and 1950.

pected to proceed rapidly. The
bond sale was consummated Mon
day night.
Directors will receive bids from
contractors for all the work on
June 12 at 8 p.m. Five separate
contracts are expected to be
awarded within a week and con
struction will begin almost im
mediately. Most of the area west of the
Bureau of Reclamation Main Ca
nal, including practically all of Al
tamont and St. Francis areas, will
be able to receive service by Octo
ber or November this year.
Areas east of the canal will
probably be served by July 1, 1959,
according to present plans, Lewis
said, adding that the entire system
as presently conceived should be
finished by that time.
The total cost of 1.8 million dol
lars includes installation of oxida
tion ponds, pumping plant, storage
building about 243,000 linear feet of
pipe, ranging from 8 to 36 inches
in diameter.
The ponds and buildings will be
located in an area bounded by
Washburn Way, SP tracks, OC&E
tracks and Old Midland Road. The
pipe will form mains and laterals. '
Users will hook up to laterals.
Cost per 4-inch hookup, if pay
ment is made in advance by June
2, is $75. If it's prepaid before
August 1, the cost is $80.
Resident users of the system
will pay a flat rate of $3.25 per
month per 4-inch hookup. Usual
ly, homes require only one hook
up. Industrial rates will vary with
the number of hookups, amount
of water consumption and type of
sewage discharged.
The district comprises a south
suburban area of 4.2 square miles.
To date, some 970 prepayments
for hookups have been received by
the district. An estimated 3,250
hookups will have been made by
the time the entire system is op
crating, it has been estimated.
Construction has already been
completed on a sewage pipeline
beneath the main canal near Sum
mers Lane and South Sixth Street.
The $6,000 cost of the approxi
mately 300-foot long undercrossing
was paid for out of advance hook
up payments.
If areas adjacent to the district
wish to join it for sewer service
in the future, they can petition di
rectors to become a part of the
district.
Also, adjacent areas may form
their own sanitary districts and
then contract to SSSD for sewage
service.
