Neuberger Explains New
In Reservation Timber
Sen. Richard Neuberger ex
plained' his views on the recent
new Klamath timber appraisal
figure in a letter submitted to
editors of several Oregon newspa
pers. Senator Neuberger stated: "In
asmuch as you asked my opinion
concerning the new Klamath tim
ber appraisal, I shall try to give
you my views on the situation.
'To begin with, we plan Senate
Indian Affairs hearings in March
to get at the accuracy of the new
estimates. There, the Indians, the
appraisers, the public, the federal
departments all will have a chance
to be heard in full.
'However, there are several I
things to be considered. From the
very start, I was told by tarle
Wilcox, forester for the Manage
ment Specialists and former In
dian forester, that he thought the
original 118 million dollars ap
praisal for the forest was too
high. Wilcox testified to this ef
fect before my committee last
May. Secondly, I am further in
formed that the Management Spe
cialists wanted the original , ap
praisal rejected for this reason
but their request was rejected by
the Interior Department.
"The new appraisal of about 90
million dollars is the average of
three separate reviews by timber-
appraisal lirms one in Eugene,
one in Oakland, one in Los An
geles. It is significant that the Eu
gene firm made by far the lowest
estimate. Does this reflect alarm
in Oregon over diminishing timber
values due to the fluctuations in
the housing market? 1 -"As
a senator, 1 have two ob
ligationsto the Indians and to
the taxpayers. I must see to it

Parking Expert
To Visit Klamath
An authority on parking proo
lems a man described as
the country's "No. I doctor ot
parking" will be in Klamath
Falls two days next month to dis
cuss what can be done about all
downtown parking.
The authority is William Barr
executive director of the National
Parking Association of Washing-
Ion. D C. He is credited with hav
ing surveyed parking conditions
in 100 American cities ol all sizes :
R. Frank Tucker, manager nli
the Klamath County Chamber of.
Commerce, said Barr would ar
rive here February 5 'lor a pre i
conference discussion of parking,
problems. On the next day he will '
speak at a noon luncheon open to,
interested persons i
Tucker said the Medfora and
Klamath County chambers of com-
merce were able 0 intercept
Barr while on another northwet'!
assignment, and that his appear
ance here will not cost the city ori
the chamber any money. I
that the Indians receive full and
fair value for their resources. But
I owe it to the taxpayers, who
must put up the funds, to see to
it that fair value is not grossly
exceeded'. If three independent ap
praisers say the forest is worth
90 million dollars, can I ask my
colleaeues in the Senate to put
up 28 million dollars above that
in order to reimburse Indians wno

fulfill an errand for his mother.
The boy found nobody in the
store, but he heard the phone ring
ing. He answered it.
On the phone was uuroin s wue,
who was worried because Durbin
hung up so suddenly before and
had not called back.
At this moment Durbin made his
first attempt to leave the cooler
He found no bandit, but onry th
boy in the store. Ana nis wue on
the phone.
Police said the boy did not re
member seeing anybody leave th
store when he came in, and could
not remember seeing anybody .leav
ing in a car.
Durbin could not positively iden
tify what type of gun the intruder
carried, but he thought it was a
.22 or .38 pistol. He described the
bandit as white, about 5 ft. 10 or
11, from 160 to 165 pounds, wear
ing a tan waist-length jacket, boots
and Levi s.
He said there was something fa
miliar ahout the man, but he could
not identify what it was.
Police said the theft was simila1
to that of the Durrell's Flying A
Station at 1130 Main Street, which
was robbed of $107 at 6:45 p.m
Sunday by a stocking-masked ban
dit.
In that case the thief accosted
the attendant in the lube room
ordered him into the olfice where
he was forced to face a window,
and then took him into an alley.
At that point the attendant was or
dered to face 11th Street while the
bandit escaped toward 12th Street
Suburbs Plagued
By Pellet Guns
1 tic pellet gun menace which
was becoming quite alarming in
the suburban area a month or so
ago, was once again in the news
this week, after a welcome ab
sence.
Sunday, two windows in the
Richfield service station at Shasta
Way and Alameda Avenue were
broken by pellets, as previously
reported. Tuesday night there was
a similar occurrence at Bob s
Union Service, South Sixth Street
and Summers Lane.
State police take a very serious
view of these occurrences, Sgt.
Bruce Lattin declared. These pel
let guns are dangerous weapons;
the projectiles will pass through a
two-inch pine board and are ob
viously capable of killing a person.
Anyone having information re
garding the incidents reported, or
any similar ones, is urged to get
in touch with the state police,
phone TU 4-3131.

Figures
Appraisal
an earlier appraisal which was not
realistic?
"The House of Representatives
insisted on the provision for a
new series of appraisals. They
would not budge on this, especial
ly after I had won my point in
conference on restoring the essen
tial and necessary language call
ing for sustained yield proce
dures. ..." I feel that the Con
gress will insist that the average
ol these three new appraisals be
allowed to prevail. Furthermore,
there is a limit to how much may
he demanded of taxpayers in all
49 states to reimburse Indians in
one state.
After all, we must remember
this. The original appraisal figure
would assure each withdrawing
Klamath man, woman and child
$58,000 tax-free. The new ap
praisal reduces that to $45,000.
Naturally, there is chagrin. Yet
$45,000, tax-free, is a huge sum.
It means nearly $200,000 for
family of four. The sum of $45,000
would seem extremely large if the
more tempting sum of $58,000 had
not earlier been reported by the
first appraisal.
"I am going to hold full and
fair hearings in March. Yet I have
an obligation to taxpayers and to
the treasury not to be stampeded
by pressure from the Indians and
their allies and supporters. I un
derstand Secretary Seaton is ac
ccpting the new appraisals and cs
tablishing them as the value of
the timber. In addition, our bill
calls for a 90 million dollar au
thorization, so there was some
hint to us way last summer that
90 million dollars might be the
more actual value of the forest
resource."
Ex-Basinite
Wins Decision
A former Tulelake resident, son
of Mrs. Francis Harmon of Tule
lake, has won recognition as a
successful attorney for the peti
doner in a recent United States
Supreme Court decision.
Services of Robert E. Hannon
of the law firm of. Hannon and
Hannon, Castro Valley, California,
were sought by Carl L. Rhoades
and Charles Upton Shreve, En-
corse, Michigan attorneys, coun
sel for John Lee, convicted mur
derer, serving sentence on Alca
traz, when Lee's case was due to
come before the , federal tribunal.
Lee, 37, is serving a life term
for the fatal stabbing of a, fellow
Army prisoner at Camp Cooke,
near Lompoc, California, in 1949.
At a court-martial for the slaying.
Lee was sentenced to death but
the sentence was commuted to
life imprisonment by presidential
order. Later Lee began habeas
corpus proceedings to win release
from the life term.
The supreme court reversed the
decision following Attorney Han
non's presentation of the case,
previously decided against the de
fendant in the U.S. Court of Ap
peals. Hannon was given permis
sion to argue the case on Decem
ber 9. The supreme court decision
was handed down on January 12.
The court ruling permits Lee to be
brought to trial again for. the
Camp Cooke slaying in a civil
court in California. The case was
taken to the supreme court from
the U.S. Court of Appeals, Ninth
District, San Francisco.
Robert Hannon is associated
with his brother William Hannon.
The attorneys are nephews of
Bernadine Hannon and E. J. Mur
ray. 117 North Eighth, Klamath

Bartender
Testifies In
Forgery Trial
The manager of the Malin Ho
tel resumed his testimony today in
the forgery trial of Jim Howell,
39-year-old Tulelake resident, ac
cused of cashing a fellow-worker's
$14.25 paycheck.
Harvey Copper, under question-l
ing by District Attorney Arthur
A. Beddoe, said that on Decem
ber 5 Howell and another man
"by the name of Anderson" ap
peared at his bar and asked him
to cash the check.
He said Anderson asked him to
cash the check and Howell asked
him for a pencil.
"I was busy," he said. "I put
a pencil down on the bar and
waited on other customers."
When the check had been en
dorsed, he said, he put the money
down on the bar. He said he
didn't know who signed the check
and who took the money.
The check, introduced as evi
dence by Beddoe over objections
by Robert G. Danielson, Howell's
court appointed attorney, was
made out to Jim Elston ahd was
endorsed by that name.
' The state maintains that Howell
forged the name.
Danielson objected to the
check's admission because Cop
per "says he doesn't know who
took the check or who took the
money."
The objection was overruled by
Circuit Judge David R. Vanden
berg. .
A previous state witness was
Robert Anderson, a Malin area
rancher and potato grower who
said he had employed Howell and
Elston as potato pickers.
Howell had pleaded guilty to the
charee. forfierv of endorsement.
in a hearing Friday. His plea was
rejected by the judge, however,
because Howell admitted he
couldn't remember whether or not
he had .signed the check.

Klamath May Play. Host
To Archery Tournament
The project of constructing a
multipurpose building at Moore
Park, the possibility that Klamath
Falls may play host to a national
archery tournament in July, and
Moore Park's potentialities for
tourist camping were among the
subjects discussed at Tuesday's
meeting of the city's park and
recreation committee.
Thp firsi two subjects were
raised by three representatives of
the Klamath Archers who attended
the meeting: Jack Moore, Dale
Baxter and Walter Bower. Their
objective was to build a structure
measurine about 40 feet by 96,
with a finished area including a
fireplace at one end, and a large
unfinished area suitable for an
archery range at the other. The
building would be located in. the
dav camp and archery area of the
park.
The archers' spokesmen pro
posed that the building be con
structed with volunteered materi
als and labor, and said that since

pany was stockpiling poles for

their organization, a log cabin typi
structure seemed indicated.
During the discussion, commit
tee members recalled that youth
groups and other community or
ganizations had long desired soma
kind of shelter, in order to carry
out their programs in bad weather.
They expressed the hope that these
organizations would contribute la
bor and materials to the project.
The committee passed a resolu
tion approving of the Klamath
Archers' plan, and called on the
council for its approval, further
asking that a committee be ap
pointed to work 'with the archers
und the park and recreation de
partment in carrying out the pro
ject. The archers spokesmen also to d
the committee that Klamath Falls
was .being considered as the site
of a national field archers tourna-.
ment, which would bring some
2,000 archers, and probably 1,000
extra family members, to Oregon
in July. The tournament will def
initely be held in this state, be
cause of the Centennial celebra
tion, and the park and recreation
committee adopted a resolution
guaranteeing participants exclusive
use of the Moore Park archery
range for two weeks, as an induce
ment for them to come here.
Other visitors at the Tuesday
meeting were Charlie Schuss and
Charles Malin, chairman and mem
ber, respectively, of the chamber
of commerce's tourist and conven
tion committee. They familiarized
members of the park and recrea
tion committee with studies made
by the chamber of commerce re
lating to suitable sites for tourist
camping in the Klamath Falls area.
The gist ot the visitors report
was that trees and other physi
cal assets are necessary for a tour
ist campsite, and that the only
point closer to the city than Kcno
at which such a site could be de
veloped would be within Moore
Park.
Schuss and Malin provided com
mittee members with studies show-
ing criteria established for such in
stallations set by the U.S. Forest
Service and the park department
of the state of Washington, the
program of which is generally con
sidered to be a model of its kind.
Director Bob Bonney told com
mittee members that he had dis
cussed the question with Mayor
Lawrence Slater and members of
the chamber's committee, and that
there had been agreement that
there were suitable sites at Moore
Park where such a development
would not interfere with existing
uses. He said they had also agreed
that any tourist camping devel
opment would have to be coinci
dental to the total development of
the park and situated in an area
of secondary importance, and that
construction, operation and main
tenance would have to be fi
nanced outside the existing city
budget.
The committee took the matter
under advisement.
