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.

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.

NEW YORK (AP) - Investors'
seem to be looking at every mar
ket today except the stock market.
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

vesting for the firsjt time.
The stock market's statistical
slory in January was a sad one.

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

dictate. The difference between

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.

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.

By JACK V. 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."
The annual law day coincides
with Communist May Day celebrations.
