WALL STREET CHATTER NEW YORK (UPD-Colby & Co. notes that nearly all reliable technical indicators arc following a bullish trend. The firm feels that the two most important stock groups, from a technical standpoint, the indus trials and tie rails, have been confirming the action of each oth-j er consistently, and it considers this a good indication that market performance will be excellent. Lawrence Bleibcrg of Bache & Co. believes selectivity is the key note to profitable investing at this state of the market.

Probably the most important as pect of the recently passed bill (May 13) is the fact that the new legislation repeals the 1961 provi sion that excluded Klamath Coun ty from the state reorganization law. Now Klamath County for the first time can reorganize its school districts any way it wishes. subject to approval by the coun ty board and the state board of education. When asked to comment on the new law, school superintendents Ray Hunsaker, city, and Cliff Robinson, county, both agreed the law was a good vehicle for reor ganization and simplified the pro cess. "The new law is a good instru ment for reorganization and it makes it possible for the school district boundaries to be drawn anywhere they're needed." Hun saker said. George Under the new law there islAshland. More specifically, Robinson said, "we now have the legal ma chinery to re-examine the posst bility of a two-district setup." The three school boards in their joint meetings over the past few months came closest to agree ment over a two-district plan, but were stymied when they couldn't agree on a system of equalization Boh 50-50 and 60-40 equalization were proposed and it seemed at one point that the boards were close to agreement on 60-40 equal-. ization, but when it came to a vole it was defeated. Under tlie new law if Klamath County were to reorganize into two separate school districts 1-12 the rural school law would auto matically be effective and equali zation would be built in, Hunsak er feels. The operating budgets of the G.W. Huffman Dies Tuesday William Huffman, 46, a native of Klamath also a provision that gives the County, died in Ashland at the county a choice in the number of directors desired for the school board or boards," the superintend ent continued. The county superintendent. speaking in part (or his school board members who have been outspoken critics of the single dis trict reorganization proposal, said that the new law "now gives the people in the area an opportunity to resuidy reorganization and boundary realignment Dairy Princess Dinner Saturday Tlie public is Invited to attend the coronation dinner for the 1963 dairy princess at Rcames Golf, and Country Club, Saturday night, June 8, at 8 p.m. The dinner will honor all prin cess contestants, Joan Lee, Bo nanza; Nancy Wenz, Klamath Falls, and Cathy Ross, Chiloquin.

Grass Fire Suburban firemen extinguished a grass fire that burned along tlie road near the Metier Broth ers Company, 3121 Crosby Street, about I p.m., Tuesday, the Suburban fire Department has reported. The fire was eon- fined to a strip along tile road right-of-way. There was no dam age. two separate districts would be combined under the rural school law and half of the budget total would be levied county-wide. The oilier half would be levied within the separate districts along with capital outlays. Tlie new law also facilitates minor boundary changes in that the county court acting as a school "committee" could make! these minor boundary changes without a vote of the people in volved. Tlie people involved in the! boundary change would have a chance to remonstrate if they felt the change wasn't suitable and the remonstrance would lie reviewed by the state board. In the event of major reorgan ization, a vote of the people would be required before the change could be effected, Hunsaker felt. The reorganization plan would have to be approved by the state board and the county court before it was referred to the people for a vote. Robinson said he didn't feel the rural school law would auto matically become effective in the county district if the school dis tricts were reorganized under the new law. He also said he wasn t sure that a vote of the people would be needed for major reor ganization. "Tlie new provisions under Sen ate Bill 287 arc complicated and require qualified legal inlerpicla-i lion," Robinson said. Neuberger Bill Asks Relief Of Lumber Imports WASHINGTON (UPD - Sen. Maurine B. Neuberger. D-Ore., called Tuesday for changes in U.S. shipping laws to help cut back a record flow of Canadian softwood lumber to U. S. Atlantic Coast markets. Mrs. Neuberger told tlie Senate that reductions in foreign charter shipping rates carrying British Columbia lumber had given Ca nadian lumbermen an added edge wcr U.S. lumbermen. U.S. lumber mills which send their product to the East Coast by sea must use American-flag vessels because of U.S. merchant marine laws. Mrs. Neuberger said U.S. rates had remained un changed while foreign charter rates had dropped. Mrs. Neuberger has introduced a bill to allow West Coast lum bermen to use foreign vessels for shipments to the East Coast. A similar bill died without coming to a vote in tlie last Congress.
