! Its-
Day's lews
By FRANK JENKINS
Government economy note:
Postmaster General Day says in
Washington this morning he won t
restore twice-a-day mail delivery.
He has two reasons:
1. He doesn't want to.
2. Congress tells him he can t
have the 176 million dollars
year it would cost.
That's what might be called a
meeting of the minds. A lot of
us taxpayers out in the brush
wish there could be more such
meetings.
This modern world note:
In one of our big Mid-Western
cities the other day an unem
ployed worker was caught trying
to put phony quarters in a juke
box to get himself a little music
to cheer his day. He was arrest
ed and charged with possessing
counterfeit money.
When he came up for trial, he
testified that on February 28 he
drew a $90 relief check, cashed
it and made a round of the neigh'
borhood taverns. In the course of
his round, he said, he probably
picked up a couple of bogus quar
tcrs without noticing it.
Anyway, he testified, he didn't
know he was pushing counterfeit
money.
The jury found him guilty.
Court officials estimated the
cost of the case, including indict
ment, incarceration and trial, ran
somewhere between $750 and
$2,000. This estimate upset the
judge, who remarked: "I, person
ally, don't understand why such a
case was presented to the grand
jury.
He then sentenced the culprit to;
ONE HOUR in the custody of the
U.S. Marshal.

Comment?
Let's go along with Seneca, the
Latin Stoic philosopher, who wrote
about 2.000 years ago in his Epis-
ties: "What fools these mortals I
be!"
The line was so good that some
1500 years later William Shake
speare picked it up (inadvertent
ly, let us assume) and put it in
the mouth of Puck in A Midsum
mer Night's Dream. He added
one word to Seneca's version,
causing Puck to say: "Lord, what
fools these mortals be!"
Anyway, the line hits the nail
on the head.
From Geneva: "
The Big Three nuclear test ban
resumes here today with the U.S.
and Britain ready to offer a new
package plan for a quick treaty.
The Soviets say they are stand
ing pat on their old proposals for
the time being.
Comment? , i
Let's let Dr. Edmund Teller,
our noted H-bomb physicist, sup
ply it. He said at a University
of California alumni banquet last
night:
"The present moratorium
nuclear testing might well prove
CATASTROPHIC for the United
States. The situation under which
we have foregone all testing
and hence all significant weap
ons advancement during the past
two and a half years, with no
means of knowing the Soviets
have done likewise might well
prove disastrous for us.
Amen, sir.
If it should turn out that while
we have been sitting honestly
tight and doing no testing the So
viets had gone on testing secret
ly and had perfected a fantastical
ly destructive new bomb and had
hidden it out on us, it would in
deed be catastrophic.
TWO SUBJECTS of top interest at the regular Monday night council
meetinq were the plot of land formerly occupied by the Klamath County
High School, at right, and the swamp area adjacent to Upper Klamath
Lake and across the road from the ice skatinq rink. The council wants to
sell the former high school site and employ the money to conduct a fill
operation at the swamp site.

HOLLYWOOD (UPI) - Clark
Gable's widow awoke briefly Mon
day night to inspect her new son
and exclaimed: "He looks just
like pa!"
Mrs. Kay Gable, 43, who ear
lier in the day had given birth
to the 8-pound boy, inspected him
from her hospital bed while a
nurse held the black-haired tot,
"His ears are of an average
size, said a doctor. Otherwise
he has a definite resemblance to
his father."
Mrs. Gable was expected to
give the boy a name today. He
was the only child of the famed
big-eared Clark Gable who died
Nov. 16 in the same hospital, Bol
lywood Presbyterian.
Gable said before his death he;
did not want a son to be named
Clark Gable Jr., fearing the fa
mous name would be a handicap,
"Oh, he's so beautiful with that
black, curly hair and that
peaches and cream skin," said
Mrs. Gable's friend, Mrs. Ray
Hommes.
"She checked all his little toes
and hands and fingers he's an
absolute delight to everyone,
said Mrs. Hommes who took a1
room near Mrs. Gable's in the
hospital to keep her company.
"Kay was able to look at him
for about five minutes before she
went back to sleep," said Mrs.
Hommes. "She was very drowsy
from the effects of sedatives' and
the spinal anesthetic."
Birth was by Cacsarean section
during which Mrs. Gable was
able to watch. She was reported
as saying when the boy was de
livered: .
What a handsome boy. Just;
what Clark wanted."
Dr. Richard Clark described
both Mrs. Gable's and the boy's
conditions as good.
He said there were no compli
cations of any kind.
Mrs. Gable and the baby were
expected to go home in about a
week.

A possibility of filling up the
swamp area on the Upper Klam
ath Lake front adjacent to the ice
skating rink was discussed at the
regular Monday night meeting of
the city council.
Street Superintendent Paul Ham-
blin informed the council that it
would take about 60.000 cubic
yards of material to fill the
swamp and make it a usable
site. . ,
He also said that 20,000 yards
of material could be obtained
from the bank area behind the
skating rink, thus enlarging the.
rink, and that other material,
could be secured from other
sources. ,
Mayor Robert Veatch explained
be secured from the dredge at a
cost of 10 to 12 cents per yard
and another 10,000 yards could
come from a sanitary land fill on
the site for a period of about
two years.
It was estimated that the cost
of moving the dirt from behind
the rink would be about 20 cents
per yard.
Hamblin estimated that it would
cost about $7,000 for the fill and
to level the area.
Discussing the sources for such
funds, Mayor Veatch pointed out
that an evaluation of city parks
was under way and the city could
sell what parks were considered
surplus.
It was decided mat City Manag-
that the two other possibleier G. S. Vergeer should again
sources of fill material would be put the site of the old Klamath
from a dredge operated by Tu- County High School up for public
lana Farms and from a land fill
operation on the site.
He said that 30.000 yards could
sale. Proceeds from such a sale
would go toward the swamp-fill
project.
Boardman Purchase Bill
Given OK By Committee
SALEM (API A $900,000 ap
propriation that would pave the
way for the state ol Oregon to
acquire and lease the Boardman
Bombing Range to Boeing Air
plane Co. was approved Monday,
The bill was passed out unani
mously by the Joint Ways and
Means Committee with the enthu
siastic support of both Senate
President Harry Boivin, D-Klam-ath
Falls, and House Speaker
Robert Duncan, D-Medford.
Boivin led a six-man, bipartisan
delegation that came back from
Seattle after a visit with Boeing
officials strongly favoring the
legislation.
Boivin said that although Boeing
did not predict the future develop
ments, the company would begin
immediately to use the 96,000-acre
area for testing.
The bill will go first to the
House. Duncan told the committee
"to proceed with all dispatch,"
and indications are that it will get
quick favorable House action.
My overall impression is one
of great hope that this undertak
ing at Boardman will be profitable
both to Boeing and to the state
of Oregon," Duncan said.
Of the $900,000, the first $400,000
would pay the costs of moving the
Navy bombing range from Board-
man in Northeast Oregon to Lake
County in Southern Oregon,
The next $400,000 would pay the
difference between the higher
cost of Boardman and the lower
value of the Lake County land
The other '$100,000 would be for
appraisal costs.
The delegation also conferred in
Seattle with district naval officials
and learned that while the trans
fer would not be made until sum
mer, the Navy would permit Ru
ing to begin moving in immedi
ately.
Over a five-year period Boeing
would repay $250,000 of the cost,
of moving the Navy.
Under terms of the lease, Boe
ing also would pay $60,000 annual
rental for the property, which It
would lease for 80 years. The
rental agreement would be subject
tu periodic renegotiation. Boeing
also would pay taxes on buildings
and other facilities on the land,
although the state would pay the
lays on the land.
A word of urgent warning wasi
voiced by Vergeer when he told
the council that some business
places in the downtown area are
storing as much as 1,000 to 1,500
pounds of gunpowder and using it
for reloading purposes.
His comment came in connec
tion with the amending of an or
dinance which now limits the
amount of such material that can
be stored in the city to 50 pounds
of gunpowder and 5,000 caps or
primers.
Any material in excess of .this
amount would have to be stored
in a separate magazine not less
than 500 feet from any structure.
Vergeer said, "I can show you
places in the business area where
they are storing large quantities
of gunpowder at the present
time.
He was instructed to send
copy of the new ordinance to
these places immediately.
A new agreement has been
worked out between the county
and the city which will give
big assist to the city's attempts
to maintain its stress i a riwhv
dling budget.
The county has agreed to ap
propriate $15,500 for the year July

The United States and other
Western nations had felt it would

Soviet Union insisted on discus
sion.
In Leopoldville, Kasavubu told
six visiting American newspaper
editors and publishers the U.N,
military operation in the Congo
has been a failure.
Since the United Nations
came, conditions have grown
worse," Kasavubu declared. "It
was called to bring peace; it in

Four-Bit Suit
Costs Plenty
CHICAGO (AP) - The federal
government won a four-bit con
viction Monday that cost an esti
mated $750 to $2,000 to prosecute.
The defendant drew a sentence
of one hour and government at
torneys drew a reprimand.
The case involved William Wal

who was arrested Feb. 28 after
he tried to put two phony quar

Wallace testified at his five-
hour trial In U.S. District Court

cashed a $90 relief check, made
a round of lavcrns and probably
picked up the quarters without
realizing they were bogus.
The jury found him guilty of
possessing 50 cents in counterfeit
money.
Judge Michael L, Igre said, "I
personally don't understand why
such a case was presented to the
