HERALD AND Job Activity Termed High; Layoffs Low The State Employment Office here said job activity was rela tively high and layoffs were rela tively low last month. It backed its statement with these exam pies: Lumber activity continued his in January, and retail trade, serv ice, and finance employment was higher than normal. Job placement rose 77 per cent over January 1959. Many applicants for unemploy ment benefits were off work only long enough to draw checks for one or two weeks. The percentage of unemploy ment applicants was down to 11 for the week ended January 21 This means 11 per cent of the la bor force covered by unemploy ment was out of work. Guy Barker, manager of the em ployment oflice here, said that figure is low for this time of year. At the same week last year, 13 per cent of the labor force was out of work; in 1958 the num ber was 17.7 per cent. The percentage of unemployed persons varies from year to year and season to season, he said. It has reached a low of 5 per cent and a high of 20 per cent in some years. Now, Barker said, Klamath Coun ly is more fortunate than other counties, where 22 per cent of the labor force is unemployed. 'he fund from which unem ployment compensation checks are paid, the State Unemployment Trust Fund, shows a healthy in crease, BarKcr said, it amounts to $36,992,224, compared with $25, 273,862 a year ago. Barker said 1,600 workers are cgistered for employment at the oflice here. Of these, 700 have no valid claims for unemployment compensation, but are looking lor jobs. Interested employers, he said, may call the office, TU 4-7701. Liquor Charge Dismissed A liquor possession charge against Robin Mclvin Hawkins, 18, 1244 Homedalc Road, was d i s- misscd in district court today in the course of a trial without jury. Judge D. E. Van Vactor ruled the state had failed to show evi dence sufficient for conviction. The state's only witness was a state patrolman called by Deputy District Attorney Ernest Gordon. Hawkins, a KUIIS student who rep resented himself, said he was of fered a bottle of beer but refused. The incident occurred during the course of a teen-age dance at the fairgrounds January 22. Hawkins was released and his $50 bail returned.

Field Chief Attends Meet TULELAKE Burton Hoyle, su perintendent of the University of California Field Station, is attend ing the fourth International Bar ley Research Workers Conference in Fargo, North Dakota, conven ing February 1-4.

This is the third of a series of such meetings Hoyle has attend cd in the last nine months. Hoyle presented a treatise on "The Anal ysis of Field Trials Based on the Concepts of Islands of Variation,' co-authored with G. A. Baker, University of California, Davis, at the Western North American Re gion of the Biometric Society in June of 1959. In November he pre sented another talk on the same subject to the American Society of Agronomy, national level, in Cin cinnati. This research has been ac complished at the Tuelake Field Station in Tulelake. Moans Of Theft, Then Man Jailed On Burglary Harold S. Smith complained of theft to Chiloquin police Tuesday ftcrnoon and promptly was jailed himself on a vagrancy charge. That charge was upped to bur glary in a dwelling and Smith is in Chiloquin jail in lieu of pay ing $2,500 bail. He probably will be moved to Klamath Falls soon where the district attorney's of fice has filed an information of felony against him. Smith complained that four Klamath Falls men who helped him move to Chiloquin Tuesday from his home at 1204 Adams Street, stole two coats and a .22 rifle from him. Chiloquin police issued a warrant, and the four were arrested later in Klamath Falls. Officers recovered the goods re ported stolen and also a portable typewriter which the men said they took from Smith, too. They said they helped unload all Smith's goods except those four articles, which they kept because Smith failed to pay for gasoline and labor as promised. The four were jailed in Chiloquin overnight for questioning and were released Wednesday. No Charges were filed Police believe the typewriter was stolen by Smith Sunday from the home of Mrs. C. W. Nabakowski, 1124 Owens Street. Some steaks and eggs also were taken in that burglary. 1958-59 410 1,088 1,544 1.111 4,014 3,628 28,103 6,577 101,288 Tuesday 4.15-4.25 4.60-4.75 2.35-2.50 Wednesday, Fob. 3. 1060 Water Supply In Snow Pack Still Not Good Water supply in snow pack still not good; nearly twice last year but still below normal, says Roger fleid, Bonanza employe of the Soil Conservation Service, who has completed snow measurement in the Klamath' Basin for the Febru ary Water Supply Outlook. The complete outlook, prepared in Port land by the Soil Conservation Serv ice from reports by Reid and many others, will be published in the Herald and News next week, and again each month until May. Reid has just completed a week' training session for snow survey ors, held January 18-22 at Mr. Hood. The school, attended by snow surveyors , from many state, private and government agencies provided training and experience in over-snow travel, first aid and rescue, winter survival, and snow measurement. Safety was stressed because of the proud record of 19 years of snow survey without a fatality Over 400,000 miles by ski and snowshoes, and another 300,000 by snow machine and helicopter, have been covered in that time by some 1,100 snow surveyors in the western sta.tes and British Colum bia. One safely factor to consider. whether travel is by skis or ma chine, is the ability to survive night and storms in case of be ing caught out in the mountains by accident or breakdown. To prove to the trainees how easy it is if nature is used as an ally instead of an enemy, each trainee at Mt. Hood spent a night out on the snow with only a tarp and a Sleeping bag; snow and tree boughs provided insulation from the windy 10 degree weather and most trainees reported a comfort able rest. Of course it was a bit disagree able crawling out into the chill of dawn, but fear of having to spend night out would never again haunt this group or cause panic in case of an emergency overnight top. The Air Force 337th Fighter, Group provided a helicopter evac uation demonstration, and the Mt. Hood Ski Patrol demonstrated ground evacuation of injured per sons, by akji lah-kee), which is a special boat-shaped folding sled for just such use. Trainees were also instructed in the building of a sled from the skis of an acci dent victim, using wire and cord carried in "emergency kits" by all surveyors. ' Many lives have been saved by (he use of these crude sleds and it is imperative for all who may be "on their own" to know how to improvise in case of emergen cy.' Though improbable, a routine snow-cat trip can always become an emergency through unexpected falling trees or snowslidcs, and the Soil Conservation Service feels that the Boy Scouts' motto "be prepared" is a good watchword.

An AWOL soldier told Seattle FBI agents yesterday ne nau killed a man in Klamath County last Saturday and dumped the body in a brush thicket on the slopes of Mt. Hood. Held in the King County jail in Seattle on a temporary charge was Bernard J. Fitzpatrick Jr. of Anaconda, Montana. The FBI said he admitted killing Ralph Kay Lawson, 52 , 509 North Sixth Street, Pasco, Washington, near Algoma in Klamath County. The FBI said Fitzpatrick stabbed Lawson with a bayonet while Law son was sleeping in the back seat of his car. 1 District Attorney Arthur Beddoe said a first degree murder charge would be filed against FitzpatncK today, after further details of the killing were clarified. Beddoe said the U.S. attorney in Seattle indicated Fitzpatrick would be released to Klamath County authorities. Beddoe did not know when. The story apparently began in Sacramento last Saturday when Lawson, driving home, picked up Fitzpatrick, a hitchhiker. The men apparently took turns driving the car, but were aissausiiea wun each other's driving. Apparently Lawson had criticized Fitzpatrick's driving vigorously. Nevertheless. Beddoe said, the men continued to drive in shifts Near Algoma Fitzpatrick took the Jury Awaits Check Case A California man accused of for. gery here and wanted for parole violation at home was bound over to the grand jury Tuesday after hearing in district court. William Joseph Peterson, 35, of Salinas, was charged with forging a $30 check written on the South Sixth Street Branch of the First National Bank. The forged name was that of Helen Uran, 927'4 Jef ferson Street, identified as a for mer girl friend of Peterson. The check, officers said, was cashed last Saturday at an Oregon Food Store. With it, Peterson bought meat, milk, and bread. Police first became acquainted with Peterson when someone re ported a man throwing garbage from a moving car. The "g a r- bage," it developed, was the fresh food Peterson had bought with the check. - , In Peterson's car officers found a grand assortment of radio and TV tubes, tools, electric blankets, welding equipment, and other un explained merchandise. Later, the first of three checks, each written for $30, appeared here. Peterson was arrested on a rou tine traffic charge police found his driver's license had expired last month and was sentenced to 20 days in jail. The forgery charge was filed Tuesday. Peterson waived prelim inary hearing. Officers said Peterson was want- ed for parole violation resulting irom a lorgery conviction in Paci fic Grove, California, and was sus pected of forgery and burglary in neno.
