WEDNESDAY. NOVEMBER 13. 1958 HERALD AND NEWS, KLAMATH FALLS. OREGON' PAGE 3 A Reclamation Chief Seeks More Federal Investment HOUSTON. Tex. (API The president of the National Recla mation Assn. iN'RA) Wednesday railed for greater federal invest ment in reclamation to increase national wealth so as to help fi nance missile-space demands. President Guy C. Jackson Jr., Anahuac, Tex., said in his annual report: . "Project crop yields and taxa tion yields show how we can in crease the wealth and revenues necessary to support our defense expenditures, our outlay for ad- Couple Plans New Eatery DUNSMUIR Construction of a 100.000 restaurant at Oaklo Mo tel, North Dunsmuir, is being con templated for next summer by Mr. and Mrs. J. Morgan Jones, owners. Jones said he has asked Robert Fitch Smith, Florida architect, to (submit plans similar to Arthur Maisel's, internationally famous Miami restaurant. Adaptation of the plans to fit the hillside site will then be done by a local architect, Jones said. The restaurant, planned to seat 40, will be a two-story building with the lower floor devoted to lounging and recreational use. It will be of glass construction on the two sides facing Mt. Shasta and ait. Bradley. Construction plans hinge on free way development plans in North Dunsmuir, Jones said. He also said he was undecided on whether or not he would lease the restaurant or supervise it himself. Jones, who entered the motel business 10 years ago, now has 37 deluxe units His new venture will provide the area with an eating establishment ranking with any in the nation, Jones said. ventures into space, and all the burdensome cost's of this and fu ture decades." Jackson spoke at an afternoon session after the delegates heard Gov. Price Daniel of Texas at the opening luncheon of the 27th an nual convention. Jackson took as his theme "too big for our ditches." He raised the possibility the county may he incurring respon sibilities and needs faster than it is providing the resource develop ments, and particularly reclama tion developments, needed to sus tain them. To support his argument he cit ed many statistics on population and production growth, including a quadrupling of the gross nation al product since 1940. By contrast the area served by federal reclamation projects has increased only about three milion HOLMES SPEECH SET VANCOUVER, Wash. AP Gov.

"This is less than one-fifth of the acreage taken away each year for highways, airports, suburbs and the like," he continued. "Reclamation appropriations in 1957 amounted to only l-2Bth of the military expenditure, and only l-34ith of the governments total expenditures. They amounted to less than 1-2 OiXlih of the gross national income. "1 say that is not enough. . . "Reclamation is a major form of basic resource development. Since it simultaneously improves not one but both fundamental re sources, water and land, recla mation may well be the most concentrated and productive of all forms of resource development." He pointed to the Yakima Proj ect area in Washington as an ex ample. The federal investment there thus far of about 44 million dollars, most of it to be repaid by the water users, has already yielded more than 200 million dollars in federal income taxes lone from production of about a billion dollars worth of crops. There are still 'some 17 million acres in the 17 western stales that could be feasibly irrigated under current laws, he said, and added: "Every day that such land re mains undeveloped constitutes a huge economic waste to the entire nation. How can we afford such waste? How can we afford not to push ahead with our reclamation urograms just as fast and hard as we do with our armament and missile programs?" Jackson also opposed creation of wilderness areas in the West which would prevent putting all useable land and water to tneir fullest use. Warning Given Poachers; Coed Has Title To Moon GUNTOWN, Miss. lAP'-Everv lime they launch a missile into pace, pretty Charlene Mains worries about her property. She owns Ihe moon. Yes, sir. At least, the U.S. Reclamation R u r e a u recognizes her legal claim. On Oct. 14. vm Mrs. Kalie Hop kins Majors filed her daughter's notice at Tupelo, Miss., alter the proper legal investigation. It states Miss Majcrs' position with admirable clarity: "I, Charlene Majcrs, am hereby placing claim on the planet moon and shall defend said title against any persons or nations that might attack." The acquisition fulfilcd Char lotte's childhood ambition. She isn't the only planet owner in the family. Her cousin. Mitch ell Herring, now serving in the Marine Corps, owns the planet Mars. Whether the corps is cogni zant of this is not known. Charlene is a geology major at Mississippi State University at Stnrkvillc and looks forward to Ihe day she may visit her heaven ly dumain. However, she has not yet fig ured exactly how she would do lend the moon against attackers or poachers. No mailer. For the legal time being, her claim stands staunch. A lellow in Knoxville, Tenn., who tried to add the moon to his pos sessions a couple years ago found that Charlene had got there be lore him. The Reclamation Bureau turned his application back.
