WALL STREET
NEW YORK (AP)-The stock
market closed mostly higher to
day in an active session marked
by continued yearend transac
tions. Steels were pacemakers in a
surprising rally based on what
brokers called their oversold con
dition. Volume was estimated at 4.1
million shares compared with 3.62
Wednesday.
Gains of fractions to a point or
more were diluted by an assort
ment of losers.
American Telephone spurted 2
points to a new historic high of
106, leading utilities to another
rise.
The unexpected feature of the
day was a rally by steels, based
mainly on buying interest due to
their depressed prices. Republic
Steel and Jones It Laughlin rose
more than a point each. U.S.
Steel held a gain of close to a
point. . .
Autos were narrowly mixed,
Studebaker-Packard losing a frac-
tion following news of the choice
of a. new president.
Texaco was up about a point
and Ameridan Machine It Foun-
dry more than that. Lorillard was
another 1 point gainer.
U.S. . government - bonds ad
vanced. - Corporate bonds were
strong.

Dems Expected To Shun
Rule Altering Demands
WASHINGTON (AP)-A caucus
of House Democrats next Mon
day is expected to shelve or ig
nore demands of liberal members
for a change in House rules in
the new. Congress.
All the signs pointed today to a
harmonious meeting at which the
subject of breaking the Rules
Committee's hold on legislation
may not even come up.
I look for a harmonious cau
cus and a harmonious opening day
session next Tuesday," said Rep.
Clarence Cannon, D-Mo., who
helped draft the caucus notices
sent to all 262 House Democrats,
The notices said the caucus
would consider selection Of a
Democratic candidate for speak
er, candidates for elective offi
cers, and candidates for vacan
cies on the Ways and Means Com
mittee. Significantly, perhaps,
they omitted reference to consid
eration of "any other business"
standard language on previous
notices.
Cannon questioned claims of
some members that the notices
as sent out precluded considera
tion of proposals to change the
rules.
It was reported reliably that the
wording of the notices was ap
proved by Speaker Sam Rayburn
of Texas and Majority Leader
John W. McCormack, Massachu
setts, who are slated to retain
those posts in the new House.
Cannon said that If anyone
wanted to bring up the matter of
changing the rules it would be
in order after all other business
was disposed of. But he said he
doubted that it would happen.
Both Rayburn and McCormack
are at their homes. If a battle
over the rules was in prospect,

BRIEFS
Two Youths
Are Nabbed
For Theft
Two Klamath Falls youths, an
uncle and his nephew, were ar
rested shortly after midnight after
a city police officer said he saw
them stealing gas from some
trucks on Shasta Way near East
Main Street .
Stanley Allen Coon, 19, 1937
Derby Street, and his 16-ycar-old
nephew were taken to the police
station and - questioned. Police
said the nephew admitted steal
ing five gallons of gas from
parked cement trucks owned by
the Lagan Concrete Company,
Coon denied the charge.
The nephew -was held for ju
venile authorities and Coon was
given a (25 or five-day sentence
Thursday morning in municipal
court for aiding a minor to violate
curfew. Further charges are pend
ing.
Another minor, Clayton Spencer
Schultz, 19, 334 Mesa Street, spent
the night in the city jail after he
was arrested and charged with
being a minor in possession of
liquor. Police officers said they
saw him coming out of The Pines
Tavern, 121 South Fourth Street
Wednesday night, with a half case
of beer under his arm.
Police said a woman bartender
at the tavern admitted selling
beer to Schultz but said she
thought he was 21.
Youths Face
Curfew Count
A 14-year-old girl wearing pa
jamas and a housecoat was ar
rested in downtown Klamath Falls
along with her 16-year-old boy
friend and both were charged
with being minors in violation of
curfew.
A city police officer said he
saw the girl trying to hide in a
car on Main Street between Sixth
and Seventh streets. She was
wearing pajamas, a housecoat
and no shoes She said she was
waiting for her boy friend, who
was getting something to eat in a
cafe. She also told the officer
that she lives with her mother,
who goes to work at 3 a.m.
Both youngsters were taken to
the Klamath County Juvenile
Home to await a conference with
juvenile authorities.
leaders would be on hand m
Washington to lay the groundwork
for-it. -
Liberals who have unsuccess
fully sought rules changes in the
past apparently have formed no
organization for another try this
year. Many of them want to break
the power of the Rules Commit
tee coalition to bottle up bills.
The conservative coalition is com
posed of Republicans and South
ern Democrats.
Rayburn's associates represent
him as being anxious to avoid a
fight at the outset of the new ses
sion, especially a fight that might
be lost.
Should the Rules Committee
toss roadblocks in the path of leg
islation later, they claimed, the
chances of breaking the commit
tee's stranglehold would be better
after John F. Kennedy has taken
hold as president.
Until Kennedy is president and
his legislative program runs into
trouble in the Rules Committee,
they reasoned, the new president
would be presumptious to try to
intervene in the internal affairs
of the House. Later in the session,
he could justify such intervention
in the interest of. his legislative
program.
The present attitude of Demo
cratic strategists with regard to
changing the rules seems to be
to withhold their fire until their
program is in danger, and then
to cut loose with everything they
can muster, including the backing
of the new president.

Kirk Gets
Three-Year
Probation
William Henry Kirk. 31, Chilo-
quin, was sentenced to tnree
vears on probation by Circuit
Judge David R. Vandenberg aft
er he changed his plea from not
guilty to guilty in the assault
with a dangerous weapon case
against him.
William and his brother Leroy
were charged in August after they
allegedly cut, stabbed, pistol
whipped, slugged and kicked a
cousin, Donald Kirk, alter a fam
ily drinking party in Chiloquin.
William went to trial once be
fore but a mistrial was de
clared; the 'case against Leroy
was dropped when Donald could
not be located. The cousin was
found in Chiloquin last week and
served with a subpoena.
Deputy District Attorney Robert
M. Redding told the court Thurs
day morning that William had no
prior1 felony convictions. He said,
however, the defendant had been
in "a few minor scrapes." Red
ding termed him a good risk for
probation. Defense Attorney Ar
thur Beddoo agreed.
Both Kirk brothers were in jail
almost five months before their
cases were finally disposed of.
Both men were indicted four1
times by the grand jury.
William was convicted specifi
cally of cutting and stabbing his
cousin with a razor sharp arrow
head. Police List

Takes Scare
Seriously
SALEM (AP) Lloyd Woolfc
said Wednesday he built a shelter
under his house because he does
not want to watch his
cnuaren
die in an atomic attack.
Woolfe, 40. chief geologist for
used a pick and shovel to dig the
hole for the 1330-foot reinforced
concrete shelter. It is under his
home in Clear Lake, a tiny com
munity just north of Salem.
"I have four children," Woolfe
said. "I don't want to have to
watch them die because J spent
my weekends fishing, golfing or
watching television.;
VI feel pretty- strongly- about
this." he said. "I think it is going
to happen." , - -
Woolfe built the forms and
poured the concrete. He had only
the help of. his 14-year-old son,
Ricky, and some from . two
friends. It cost $350 for materials
and some 500 man hours of work.
It is 19 feet long and 17 feet
wide where an alcove extends out.
It is vented by hand augured holes
that jut out horizontally 14 feet
and then turn vertically upward
10 feet to the surface. It has a
drainage system and the house is
served by a private well,
Inside there are bunks for six.

lons, a month's supply of food,
enough powdered milk to make
50 gallons, an escape hatch and
games to play.
The door is nine inches thick
and the walls and roof are eight
inches thick. The door can be
barred from the inside.
He said this is not only for fall
out protection but to keep out
others. "I visualize great chaos,"
Woolfe said.
He said he considered Salem a
good place for a fallout shelter
because Portland is a logical tar
get and this would bring fallout
to Salem about 50 miles south of
Portland. '
"It just made me sick when I
thought of the consequences ofj
atomic warfare." Mrs. Woolfe
said. "I hope we'll never have to
use it."
Governor
Calls Meet
On Salmon
SALEM (AP) Gov. Mark O.
Hatfield today asked the cover-
nors of Washington and Idaho to
meet with him next month to dis
cuss ways of increasing Columbia
River salmon.
Govs. Albert D. . Rosellini of
Washington and Robert E. Smylie
of Idaho were asked to suggest
the place and time for the meet
ing. Hatfield suggested state and
federal fisheries officials attend
Hatfield said the meeting in
vitation was prompted by a letter
from Idaho state Rep. C. H. Higer
of Emmett.
Hatfield answered Higer that
there has been "an appalling dim
inution of the once prolific salm
on runs of the Columbia Kiver
and our coastal streams," and
that It is time for "immediate and
drastic action.". v
Many persons concerned with
the fisheries problem have been
"primarily interested in a divi
sion of the harvest rather than
conservation of the resource," he
said.
Washington should bring its fish
ing regulations "into a more real
istic position," Hatfield said. The
Oregon Resources Board wants to
prevent construction of dams on
the Salmon River in Idaho in or
der'to preserve that. river as a fish
sanctuary, he added.

Senator Says GOP May
Ask For Equal Chance
WASHINGTON (AP) -' Sen.
Thomas H. Kuchel, R-Calif., said
today if John F. Kennedy uses
White House news conferences for
propaganda" purposes Republi
cans may ask for equal air time.
Kuchel, the assistant Senate
Republican leader, said in an in
terview that Kennedy's plans to
hold evening news conferences on
live television indicate the Demo
crats may be planning "dramatic
Shows." . .i'.-j.' A- , '
'If presidential news confer
ences are going to be used for
propaganda purposes, then we
Republicans will have to consider
asking for equal time,'.' Kuchel
said.
Equal time provisions of the
law would not cover Kennedy un
til such a time as he might an
nounce he is a candidate for re
election. .
Kuchel said he had In mind1
speculative reports that Kennedy
might call a prime hour television
conference to discuss a single sub
jectpossibly some controversial
matter before Congress and lim
it reporters' questions to that sub
ject. ,.
Kennedy's press secretary, Pi
erre Salinger, said at Palm Beach
Tuesday that the new administra
tion will ask the networks from
time to time to carry evening
presidential news conferences-live
but the networks will be free to
carry any or all other presiden
tial meetings with reporters on a
live basis. . .
The press secretary said the re
quests might come at times of
domestic or international crisis
simply when Kennedy -has
something to announce which he
regards as of unusual importance.
Aside from possible Republican
complaints, Kennedy - apparently
is willing to risk in live television
the kind of presidential boo-boos
his predecessors didn't want to
take a chance on.- f . - :

Drunk Drivers
To Face Stiffer
Local Sentences
Municipal Judge Clarence Hum
ble Thursday warned Klamath
Falls drivers that sentences for
drunk driving have been in
creased. 'It will cost them money to get
drunk this weekend," Humble
said. He was referring to a city
ordinance passed Tuesday night
raising the fine and bail limit on
drunk driving from $100 to $300.
The . judge can now levy a fine
of $300 along with a jail sentence
of up to 50 days.
This is a considerable increase
over ouc old $100 and 30 day
drunk driving sentence," the
judge said. "We hope this will be
an added deterrent on New Year's
Eve."
The new sentences will be more
in line with district court policy,
with fines of from $250 to
$350 and jail sentences of from
30 to 90 days for drunk drivers.
who first approved televised con-
ferenres. insifitpd that th rpoiitap
White House meetings with the
press be taped for showing after
the text of presidential remarks
had been rechecked. '
Kennedy's decision means that
any possible ill-chosen word or
phrase that might have interna
tional as well as national reper
cussions will be on the record in
stantly.
This will alter the present sys
tem under which the president
cannot be quoted directly by re
porters until a checked transcript
of. his remarks becomes avail
able. The television plan is a far cry
from the precautions other pres
idents took to guard themselves
against the Washington Naval
Conference telling reporters that
treaties under negotiation would
not permit Japan to retain de
fenses on her home islands.
Franklin D. Roosevelt, who av
eraged about 100 meetings a year
with the press, rarely permitted
direct quotations of his words. He
once refused to give a House com
mittee a transcript of his confer
ence remarks, contending this
would destroy his informal rela
tionship with the reporters.
Harry S. Truman followed the
FDR "no quote" rule except when
a pungent phrase pleased him
enough to let it be used.
