I MONTH $ 1.50 6 MONTHS 8.50 I YEAR , $15.00 By BILL JENKINS Well, here it is the first of the month again and time for the monthly look-back at the weather. February of 1950 went thisaway according to the little black book: The first day of the month fell on a Sunday and it was warm and pleasant. Note that I drove to As pen Lake and found only an inch of snow. It was warm and comfor table in the sun with a high read ing for the day of 39 and a low of 2. The next day was warmer, climbed to 42, but dropped to 19 at night. Still pleasant. On the third it was overcast in the morning but cleared later on and warmed up to a nice 50 degrees. The wealher stayed nice the next day with a high of 50 and a low of 24. On the fifth we left on a warm and pleasant morning fori the Red Bluff Bull Sale. It climbed to 51 here that day. While in lied Bluff we toured the big Dia mond Match plant there and near ly walked ourselves to death. Something liko 10 acres under roof. The weather here while we were gone stayed warm on the 6th with a high of 50 but dropped to a high reading of only 3) on the 7th. On that day we toured the Wyandotte Olive Plant at Oroville and it was not what you u call warm there, cither. On the 8th I found myself in Sonoma but noted in the book that ' here it snowed a little and the tempera ture reading for the day was 35 and 11 respectively. Came home on the 9th. Had to put on chains at Redding and keep them on to Weed. Had a load in the old wagon and every turn of the wheel had the chains hitting the frame. Miserable trip. Bare pavement from Weed on in but lots of ice and it snowed here that evening. The next two days were filled with snow flurries and the mer cury hung around 35 during the day. February Ulh saw some clear In? after an unpleasant, raw day (he day before, the snow was melting fast, I note, but there was some three inches at the house and on a drive over the old Lake of the Woods road that afternoon 1 found six to eight inches on the ground. On the 14th it snowed off and on all day. Left for Portland early in the morning of the 15th with Bob Nor ris, the federal game manage ment agent, and a snow goose that was going to the park in Loncvicw. No trouble with the goose but found the Willamette Pass snow choked and slick. Lots of trucks in the ditch. The tem perature here fur the day was 43 and 21. Came home from Portland the following day through rain most of the way. Came over the Santiam and saw seven doves in the snow just the other side of Sisters. Very unusual. It was warmer here with a high of 53 and a low of 34. The 17th saw another day of snow squalls but it was only cloudy the next day. The 19th was an overcast day with some small sun in the afternoon. Drove across I lie state line road again and found the area filling up with birds. On the 20th it was cloudy, wet and miserable and two inches of wet snow fell that night. A little snow the next day. On the 22ud, a Sun day, 1 drove to Portland, through ram and snow to Eugene, rain to Portland and a veritable cloud burst up there. On the 23rd 1 came back over the Santiam and noted a clear day with only a little snow at the summit. Here it was warming after a brief snowfall in the morning. The snow was mostly off the hills and the ice was out of the lake. February 24 was a luvely day. The snow was olf all hut the tops of the hills, the birds were singing in the brush, the blackbirds were swinging on the tides again and it was suddenly spring. The following day was over cast but warm with a high reading of 51 and a low of 21. Wont to Cold Spring with Roger Reid and Gene Cox of the SCS on a snow survey. Up by Sno Cat and found four feet of snow there. It was a sunny day with a high of 53 de grecs. The 27th I describe as "spring again." On the last day of the month Ted Telline and I went to Alwrt Lake over in Lake County on a rabbit hunting expedition Dressed for a change in the weath er with long johns and then sweat ed it out for the rest of the day when the sun came out and the temperature soared to 62 degrees here in Klamath. Over there it was warmer. I would guess it at near 70 degrees. Got quite a lot of shooting, too. And that is how the month went wcatherwise. Simi. XViiIm'I'jJit By FLOYD L. WYNNE Who's running the Democratic; Parly in Oregon? Where does Sen. Richard Neuber ger stand in relation to the con trolling forces in the Democratic Party; Two events of recent days have brought these questions forcibly to mind. SOME TIME AGO, Sen. Wayne Morse slated that he might come home and campaign against Sena tor Neuberger in the next election He roundly castigated Neuberger for his record in Congress, a roc lid which, 1 feel, iound favor with most of the people of Oregon TVlorse tied himself lock, slock end barrel to the labor camp and apparently will attempt to use this as a jumping off point fori his presidential aspirations. I was curiously waiting to sec which of the two senators the Dem ocratic wheels would choose to ad dress their Party convention this weekend. It turned out to be Senator Morse. SENATOR NEUBERGER stated the oilier day that he is going to undergo a complete physical check up before deciding whether to run lor reelection this year. lie said, "In general I feel well, hut I find tnat 1 get tired toward the end of the day." He is expected to fly to Oregon so lie can be examined by the same doctors who treated him for cancer in 1958. Showing the stature he has reached in the past several years, Senator Neuberger said, "I think it is only fair to the people of the late, to my family and myself o determine if I am in the physi cal condition which public life de mands of its participants." bio basis. This season, as for some years past, Abbott, Kerns and Bell of Portland were low bidders The growers, the agency, the lithographers and the artist (as well as the Oregon Potato CommiS' sion) can well be proud of this year's display material. It is de signed, as Don McNiven, account executive with Pacific National, points out, to be put up in the stores as a unit. There is a cen tral piece displaying a homcmak er who states that Oregon Russets are "good all ways." Side pieces illustrate the various uses. There are full-color bin strips, small die cut potatoes and price cards. The traditional baked potato with its generous pat of butter has become practically a trade mark and is in evidence in each display piece. The combined Klamath - De- schutes area will market approxi mately the equivalent of 10.000 loads of potatoes this season. Fig uring 36,000 pour)ds per carload, that amounts to a heap of spuds. The promotion program is fi nanced wholly by the growers themselves who pay a fixed rate per hundredweight to pay lor the promotion. None of this money comes from state or federal ap propriations. It is truly private en- :rprise at work. Right along with the potato powers' promotion efforts go their increasing awareness of the importance of high standards of quality for the crop they raise and market. Those Klamath potatoes make mighty good eating right now and they are good all ways. THE POINT is that Senator Neuberger could have been avail able to keynote the Democratic platform convention, but he was not invited to do so. This, in itself, is peculiar since he is up for reelection and Sena tor Morse Is not. Does this mean that Senator Neuberger, then, is too much of a moderate for the Democratic bosses? Obviously, after his scathing de nunciation ol iseuocrgcr some lime ago in which Senator Morse used some very un-scnator like remarks, he could not speak fav orably of Neuberger, or could he': Also, while a Democratic plat form was being drafted which all Democratic candidates are expect ed to adhere to, why did they not ask Senator Neuberger to par ticipate since he will be the Demo cratic standard-bearer in this year's election? THESE ARE IMPORTANT ques tions, and I'm certain that every clear-thinking Democrat is going to be asking himself or herself the same questions. Only the coming months will give us the answers. Pol u iocs By FLORENCE JENKINS More than 30,000 individual pieces of colorful, attractive point of sale material are being distrib uted to grocery stores and super markets in Oregon and California to promote Klamath-Deschutes potatoes. The illustrations on the material were hand-painted this year by a Portland artist, Lorenzo Gaiglieri. Ml pieces have a bright yellow background with red and black lettering and full color illustra tions.

It has finished out an unhappy month with the price averages back to their low point of last October. Small investors are showing up in numbers for the first time at the U.S. Treasury, bill auctions. They are subscribing to other marketable Treasury securities. They are taking more interest in corporate debt offerings, Brokers are divided as to wheth er the investor is wary of common stocks alter the long price rise that cut yields (percentage of in come return) or whether he is be coming more sophisticated and learning about other forms of in vesting for the firsjt time. The stock market's statistical slory in January was a sad one. flic Associated Press price index of 60 stocks started the month at 231 and ended at 216 for a loss of 15 points. The tumble in the Dow Jones industrial stock index was even nore arresting since it is figured on a higher numerical level. This index started January at a record 686 and ended at 622 for a tumble of 64 points. Such rallies as January provid ed were mild and short lived. Bond salesmen, on the other hand, seem to have found cus tomers easily. Corporate bond of ferings found a fairly ready mar ket. Whenever the Treasury invit- d individuals (small investors as contrasted to big financial institu- ions, the usual bond buyers) to buy government securities the re sponse was hearty. From these marketable U.S. ecuntics of one to five year maturities, individuals of late have branched out into the 91-day Treasury bill auctions. Each Monday the Treasury asks r bids for around one billion lollars of these bills. They pay no merest, but are sold below par as the money market conditions dictate. The difference between what you pay for them and the par value at which you redeem SHORT RIGS By Frank O'Neal yield. The bids are received at a special Federal Reserve Bank window. How much of the public's inter est in high yielding government securities is at the expense of the stuck market is debatable. But banks and savings and loan asso ciations have noted a jump in withdrawals from savings ac counts whenever the Treasury has invited individuals to buy secur ities at yields of around 5 per cent. Some brokers think the change in investing mood will be short lived. They expect stock prices to rally. And the public usually re turns to the stock market when prices are rising. They also count on the expect ed increase this year in personal income totals to provide the in vesting money which stocks could attract.

By Jimmy Hatlo TlEN, FROM THE terminal to his HOME IN HORSECHESTEI2 (90 Ml.), ITS 6 HRS.VIA THE LOCAL PLANE HOP- Food For Though! By DICK WEST WASHINGTON (UPI) I hope Defense Secretary Thomas S. Gates will give some thought to the "Fulton system" of anti-mis sile defense. If it doesn't work out, the gov ernment can always sell it to tele vision for a science fiction pro gram. The system is the brainchild of Rep. James G. Fulton, a Penn- ylvania Republican in whom the lamp of genius burns brightly. It burns particularly bright during meetings of the House Space Committee. It was Fulton who last year conceived the idea of developing a "two dimensional tomato" with which to nourish our spacemen when they reach the distant planets. He also thought up a way of beating Einstein's theory that no thing can travel faster than the speed of light. Why not, asked Fulton, rev up a spaceship to the speed of light and then throw out baseball? Wouldn't the baseball go faster? 1 was glad to see that Fulton's fertile brain was still busily ferti lizing when the Space Committee met Monday to question Gates about the state of the nation's mis sile programs. As usual, the Space Committee was having a space problem. There weren't enough seats for everyone. Chairman Overton Brooks (D-La.) partly solved the problem by having committee members move closer together. But this did not seem to enhance the spirit of togetherness.' The Democrats kept talking about the "missile gap" and the Republicans kept talking about missile progress. It was hard to believe they were talking about tne same programs. Fulton, a Republican, paid trib ute to Gates for not wasting a lot of money on "fantastic" mis- ule schemes. Then he suggested 'with a grain of seriousness" the Fulton anti-missile system. At the present time, he said, the best we can hope to do is hoot down enemy missiles before thoy land. This, he said, is little better than "standing under an apple tree with an apron." Then he outlined his concept for energizing" incoming missiles from behind so they would fly on past their targets. It might be pos- ible, he explained to keep them in the air indefinitely like in volley ball. I personally couldn't see that it would be much improvement over the old Fulton system of revers ing enemy missiles in flight so they would go back where they came from. But maybe Gales can make something out of it. i f HELLO, FOLKS.' I'M UAPPV TO TELL U I I YOU THAT WE'LL BE LANDING 4-5 . I VS I -S, I I MINUTES AHEAD OP TIMEI, ' 2.

FOX LOS ANGELES (UPI) Tim sur. gcon with the sincere eyes tells this week his story of how Mrs. Barbara Jean Finch was shot to death. Dr. R. Bernard Finch is exact ed to take the witness stand some time late Tuesday or Wednesday mornine to cive for the first iimn his version of his wife's slaying. "We have heard a lot of stories in this trial," Finch told this cor- 1 respondent. "But when you get down to it, I am the only eye wit ness to what happened. And I am not guilty of what they say I am." Too Sexy Ads Under Probe WASHINGTON (UPf) - House investigators trained their sights today on movie ads regarded as too sexy. A House Post Office subcom mittee headed by Rep. Kathryn E. Granahan (D-Pa.) will launch hearings Tuesday on the movie industry's "self-policing" program and whether it needs to be beefed up. Eric Johnston, president of the Motion Picture Assn. of Ameri ca, will tell what the industry it self is doing to keep things clean in the movies, as well as in ad vertising of films. Mrs. Granahan said she and other subcommittee members have received many complaints about movie ads distributed through the mail or published in newspapers, as well as about some movies. "These complaints evidence widespread public concern with this serious and growing problem," the subcommittee said. Doctor Ready As A Witness What they say is that Finch, 42, and Carole Tregoff, 23, after a two year illicit love affair, killed the doctor's brunette wife because she had tied up all his money- estimated at $750,000. The trial resumes today after a postponement since last Tuesday due to the illness of a witness. Had Carole remained silent she might not be on -trial as a co- defendant. Not a single witness so far has even placed Finch s red-haired mistress at the scene of the July 18 slaying outside the cliff-top home in West Covina, Calif. SETS "LAW DAY" WASHINGTON (UPI) Presi- dent Eisenhower called Sunday night for observance of Law Day on May 1 "to demonstrate to the peoples of the world that this na tion seeks only fairness and jus tice in its relations with other nations."
