Full Soil Bonk
Details Due
YREKA According to a re
cent announcement by John Fos
ter, chairman of the Siskiyou
County Agricultural Stabilization
and Conservation Committee, farm
ers of Siskiyou County will have
within two weeks full information
available, relative to the conserva
tion reserve program of the soil
bank for 1959.
According to Foster's statement,
the conservation reserve is being
openeo early this year because the
other part of the soil bank, the
acreage reserve program, will not
be effective in 1959.
Under conservation reserve,
farmers contract with the U.S. De
partment of Agriculture to lessen
their acreage of harvested crops
lor a period ot up to 10 years,
and apply this acreage to conser
vation practices. The farmer re
ceives, in return for this contri
bution to production adjustment,
an annual rental payment from the
government, based on the produc
tivity of his land. The government
will also share in the cost of es
tablishing the conservation prac
tices. Three major changes from the
program in effect this year, ac
cording to Foster arc:
1. A higher average level of ren
tal payments with the individual
rate depending upon the produc
tively, agricultural value and rent
al rates for similar land in the
locality.
2. A higher payment rate as an
incentive for a farmer to place al
eligible cropland in the reserve.
3. A priority system for accept
ing contract applications which
gives preference to those farmers
ottering land at the lowest cost
per unit of productivity.
Foster said that farmers will he
notified as soon as the county of.
fice is ready to receive conserva
tion reserve applications.

That was the average require-

"The Isetta, a little Italian car

School Enrolls
Negro Pupils
NORFOLK, Va. (AP) The Nor
folk School Board, complying with
an 18-month-old lederal court or
der to end racial segregation in
the public schools, announced to
day it will enroll 17 Negroes in
white schools.
The board reported its action to
federal District Judge Walter h.
Hoffman after three days spent in
reconsidering previously rejected
applications of 151 Negroes for ad
mission to white schools.
Under Virginia's program of
massive resistance to school inte
gration, a school that is integated
is automatically closed.
Gov. J. Lindsay Almond Jr. was
not immediately available for
comment on today's develop
ments. The board said the 17 children
will be enrolled for the school
year beginning Sept. 8.
It said it took the action con
trary to what all of the members
of the school board and the divi
sion superintendent of schools
honestly and sincerely believe is
in the best interests of the apply
ing children, the children in the af-
ected schools and the public in
general, but pursuant to the law
as interpreted by the court.
J he 17 children to be enrolled
had previously been rejected for
admission to white schools on the
grounds that their presence there
would cause racial tensions and
isolation of Negroes among their
schoolmates.
The school board told Hoffman
that after reconsidering the other
134 Negro applicants it had decid
ed not to enroll them.
The school board attorney.
W. R. C. Cooke, immediately after
the board's report was read in
court by Chairman Paul Schweit
zer, told Hoffman a motion will
be filed asking the court to delay
or defer enrollment of the 17 Ne
groes until September, 1959.

Road Paving
Requested
A delegation from Medford met
with the Klamath County Court
Friday to discuss roads in gener
al and the Dead Indian Road at
Lake of the Woods in particular.
The Jackson County ' emissaries
hrought with them a petition, con
taining 876 names, asking Klam
ath County to consider paving the
road from the lake to the Jacfcson
County line.
It was a particularly timely
meeting, Jackson County Judge
Rodney Keating said, because his
county had completed paving its
part of the Dead Indian Road
only yesterday when the last 4.6
miles were sealed.
With Judge Keating were Com
missioners .Chester Wendt and
Ralph A. James, Jackson County
Engineer P. A. Rynning, and
K. H. Singmaster and Henry
Enders of Ashland and E. H. Mann
of Medford, all property owners at
Lake of the Woods,
Judge Keating said his county
requested Klamath County to pave
the road from Ihe lake to the
county line; it did not request
pavement of the road circumscrib
ing the lake.
Klamath County Judge Charlie
Mack and Commissioner Jerry
Rajnus said the delegation had
been invited to the lake Friday to
inspect the roads. Meeting with the
combined courts were Klamath
County Engineer William R. Can
ton and Road Superintendent Red
Wells.
In other business;
Judge Mack said he had been
asked by the Legislative Interim
Committee on Indian Affairs "if
Vou have any recommendations
pertinent to the Klamath Indian
situation to present lor the com
mittee's consideration."
A letter from Tom Lawson Mc
Call, the committee's executive
secretary, said: "You are in a bet
ter position than anyone to specu
late on the future impact of term
ination on local government in
your area and to relate it to pos
sible demands that might be made
on the state government as an ul
timate sequence.
McCall again thanked Mack
for material he had given the com
mittee, at the committee's request,
last November. A Klamath County
legislator, John Korbow, is vice
chairman of the interim commit
tee. County Jail Wins

Work Scheduled
Work to provide telephone facil

area will start the week following
Labor Day. T. W. Cole. Pacific
Telephone manager here said to
day.
The company had already placed
some leeder cable serving the gov
ernment housing units, and now
plans to extend the telephone dis
tribution system throughout the
housing area.
Cole said one, two and four -party
residential service will be available
to Kingsley Field residents. The
housing area has been designated
a locality rate area by the Ore
gon Public Utility commissioner
Rates slightly higher than those

place about two miles of cable,
ranging in size from 26 to 200
pairs to bring phone service to the
area. Overall cost of the project
has been placed at 115,000.
Ordinance
Protested
MONTAGUE - A group of Mon
tague residents, headed by Morris
Prather, rancher, as spokesman
and Jack Churchill, mayor of Mon
tague, appeared before the Sisk
iyou County Board of Supervisors
on Tuesday, August 26, to protest
the enactment of a county ordi
nance prohibiting the shooting of
firearms within one mile of an in
corporated city.
Prather, whose ranch is located
a short distance from Montague
and who runs a string of sheep
nearby, stated that "the only way
I can keep the dogs off without
putting out poison is by shooting
them.
Churchill called attention to the
existing state law which prohibits
shooting within 150 yards of a res
idence as providing some protec
tion" against the use of firearms
in populated areas.
Supervisor S. C. Jackson ex
pressed the opinion that he would
favor the ordinance if it was lim
ited to Yreka, "but I don't think
District 3 (his district, which takes
in Montague) needs it." A similar
opinion was expressed by Don
Avery, chairman.
On asking Yreka s Judge Harry
Hammond for his opinion regard
ing said ordinance, he stated that
"if you have that power, then you
should carry it further and say
there should be no discharge of
firearms in Siskiyou County."
Hammond also agreed with Floyd
Merrill, district attorney of Siski
you County, that the ordinance if
passed should be applicable to all
incoi, ited areas.
It was agreed by the board to
table the matter until next week,
the subject to be discussed further
by Merrill and Sheriff Al Cottar.
