Judges Named
For Tule Fair
TULELAKE - Two livestock
judges have been selected to judge
the 1959 Tulelake-Butte Valley
air, it was announced today by
Bill Whitaker, fair manager. At
the request of many exhibitors and
youth groups, the board hired two
instead ot the one so the work
could proceed more quickly and
the judges could consult with each
other in case of a doubt.
Joe Johnson, head of the Animal
Husbandry Department of the
Washington State Extension Di
vision, will be the head judge and
he will be assisted by a member of
iiis stall. In choosing these men
wmtaker said that the board had
ielected men with many years ex
penence and what they felt
would be the best possible choice
available.
Johnson was formerly head of
the Animal- Husbandry Depart
ment of the Oregon State College
at Corvallis and will be known
by many residents of the Basin
ho attended that institution.
These men will judge beef, sheep
swine, dairy and showmanship.

Phone Thief
Untouchable
By Officers
SAN FRANCISCO (UPI)
William -S. Miller is a very un
usual man. So unusual is he in
fact, that authorities can't afford
to put him in jail as a telephone
coin dux imi'i.
Miller, a 36-year-old Navv hos
pitalman first class was brought
before U.S. District Judge George
a. narris on melt charges lues
riav.
He admitted taking $2,568 from
110 pay telephones on military ba
ses in the San Francisco Bay
Area.
Telephone company officials said
they believe he took $8,600 from
222 boxes in the area, and they
want to know how. They de
scribed Miller as one of four per
sons known who can rob the
"pick-proof boxes.
Then defense attorney William
Scammon presented the following
arguments in behalf of Miller:
Navy authorities said a project
to develop an X-ray procedure for
cancer detection "will collapse"
without him. His ingenuity is
needed to continue development o(
a combination of color filters and
intensifies for X-ray machines to
detect malignancies and other con
ditions of internal tissue.
He took the money to help
pay medical expenses for his six-
year-old daughter, Robin, who suf
fers from a congenital hip mal-
lormation.
He received the Silver Star
for heroism during the Korean
War and has been awarded 16
other medals, including the Bronze
star and the Purple Heart with
clusters.
Harris considered the evidence.
and released Miller on five years
probation, with an order to return
the $2,568.
The judge also ordered him to
make available to the telephone
company his "special or unique
appliances or inventions" used to
rob the coin boxes.
Seal Lioners
Win Debate
SACRAMENTO (UPI) - Sea lion
lovers Tuesday won out over sal
mon fanciers in an hour-long bat
lie before the Assembly Fish and
Game Committee.
The committee bottled up a res
olution which would have directed
the Fish and Game Department to
Kill large numbers of sea lions to
prevent them from eating salmon.
hen. Waverly Jack Slattery (D-
Finley), author of the plan, told
the committee that he was not
blood thirsty.
"I think sea lions are charming
creatures when they are sitting on
rocks," he said. But he said he
thought fishermen who wanted the
lions removed had a just cause.
However, opponents to the bill
objected to a "slaughter" of sea
lions.
Laurence J. Moitozo, director of
Ihe Youth Science Institute of San
Jose, told the committee that sea
lions make about 75 per cent of
their meals on fish that are not
fit for humans to eat.
He said sea lions eat many fish
which prey on salmon.
E. A. Davidson represented the
fishermen. He urged the committee
lo approve the resolution and
slop the bloody slaughter of our
beautiful salmon.
He said sea lions often follow
fishing boats "and eat salmon
right off the hooks.
OVER THE
GARDEN GATE
FORT JONES The Garden Club
of the Fort Jones Women's Club
met at the home of Mrs. Ernest
Smith to complete plans for the
planting of flowers along the busi
ness district of the city.
Comanche petunias, selected as
the town flower for 1959, were
planted in front of the dental office
of Dr. E. H. Hovcndon and at the
Marble Motel on May 1. Flowers
are yet to be planted between the
Scott Valley Bank and Hugh s Ga
rage. Painted barrels of the flow
ers were planted at the meeting,
but the barrels will not be placed
along the business section until the
plants have established themselves.
It is expected that the petunias
will be placed on the streets some
time early in June.
All residents of Fort Jones are
urged to cooperate with the beauti
fication program by planting Co
manche petunias in their yards.
The flowers are scarlet and very
brilliant. It is hoped that commu
nity cooperation will make t h e
flower program successlul.

WASHINGTON (AP) Rep.
Clement w. Miller (D-Calif) Tues

subcommittee to approve plan
ning and construction funds for
several flood control and naviga-
lon projects in the north coastal
area of California.
Accomnanied bv Carl W. Sauer
of Fort Bragg, Calif., chairman
of the Noyo Harbor Commission,

Conservation District for a $500,
000 increase in the $250,000 budget
ed by the administration for the

gineers be authorized to study
proposed improvements in Hum
boldt Harbor, Crescent City Har
bor, Bolinas Lagoon and Shelter

Guidotti and Miller said Bodega
uay, essential to the lishing in
dustry, is urgently in need of

Northern Senators Cool
To Brovn Water Proposal
By JAMES C. ANDERSON
SAfUAMKNTO (UPI) Gov Ed-
munrf r; Brown's proposed solu
lion to the state's pressing water
nmhlpm met with a cool recep
tion today trom several im
California senators.
Some of them. Democrats at
that, accused the Democratic gov
ernor of a sell-out to soutnern ae-
manrls.
Brown's program was intro
duced Tuesday in the upper house
hv Sen. Hush Burns lu-rresnoi,
president oro tempore of the Sen
ate. Despite the critical reaction
from some of his colleagues,
Burns predicted the proposal will
win the necessary 21 votes to gain
Senate approval.
The governor s program com
hines these essentials:
Provides for a bond issue of;
$1,750,000,000 to finance the Feath
er River Project to completion
together with such corollary proj
ects as the North and South Bay
aqueducts and a coastal aqueduct
to the Santa Maria River.
Earmarks 130 million dollars
from the bond issue for Che de
velopment of local projects in
areas not benefitted by the FRP.
Dedicates all revenues from
the projects to the payment of
the bonds and provides that water
contracts made between the state
and water users must remain in
effect for the life of the bonds,
possibly 50-60 years.
The governor issued a statement
in which he said the Burns bill
provides the basis "for an end
to the north-south argument.
"We believe these amendments
will strengthen the bond issue pro
posal in very way, meet the prob
lems posed by Southern California
water leaders and provide satisfac
tory guarantees 'to both the nortn
and the south, Brown said.
Senate opposition, and some
statements of support for the gov
ernor, came immediately.
"This proposal does exactly
what the south wants, said Sen.
Edwin J. Regan (D-Weaverville).
"It is a southern victory and I
am sure all of the northern legis
lators will' discover this when they
read the bill.
Regan said committing the en
tire bond issue to the FRP and re
lated projects left no money to
develop water in .other .thirsty
areas. 1 .-
'If the south is taken care of,
the north must respectfully. "but
firmly ask 'what, happened to the
California water plan?' Regan
said. "How is it going to be fi
nanced and where do the other
thirsty sections of the state get
any water?"
Sen. Stephen P. Teale (D-West
Point), who comes from a moun
tain district not benefitted by the
FRP, complained that the 130
million - dollars earmarked for lo
cal projects was far from ade
quate. . - '-. . ,,.
"I have 120 million dollars in
needed projects in my own area
alone," he said. "Where do the
other 45 counties get money for

their water needs if the whole
bond issue goes to build the
Feather River Project?"
Sen. Alan Short (D-Stockton) al.
so opposed the bond issue split
which sets aside $1,620,000,000 for
the FRP and 130 millions for lo
cal projects.
"You could get a better division
in an elementary, school," he said.
Southern leaders in the Legisla
ture generally reserved comment
on the lengthy proposal until they
had a chance to study it.
But Sen. John A. Murdy IR.
Santa Ana), chairman of the
Southern California delegation,
said that if the governor's pro
gram carried out the three-point
southern manifesto adopted last
February, "I see no reason why
we shouldn't support it."
The southern position included
a demand that tidelands oil mon
ey be used fon water develop
ment: that the bond issue be larse
enough to, assure building the FRP
all the way tnrougn 10 southern
California and that water con
tracts be firm.
The tidelands oil money already
has been committed to .water on
the urging of, the governor and
Murdy said he personally felt tha
proposed bond Issue was large
enough. But he said he wanted
southern legal experts to review
the bill to see if water contacts
are adequately protected.
Sen. James A. (jooey (D-Mer-ced)
and Sen. Paul L. Byrne IR.
Chico) both said they would sup
port the governor's program.
"it looks like a reasonaDie com-,
promise as between the demands
of the south of a constitutional
amendment to protect water con
tracts and the refusal of the north
to accede to that demand," Co
bey said.
The Burns bill will lace its first
major test Friday when it will be
given a hearing by the Senate
Water Committee.
