NEW YORK (UPD-Ralph Rot-
nam of Harris, Upham & Co. says
lie ttocK market has taken unex
pected and unfavorable news very
well reflecting the absence of
speculative and uninformed buy
ing during the 1962-63 rise.
For the future, Rotnam says
some good earnings new s and the
long hoped for tax cuts could pro
pel stock prices higher.
Bradbury K. Thurlow of Wins
low, Cohu & Stetson feels that
stock market which cannot rise
for more than three consecutivel
sessions is not very healthy. lie
said that the market s ten con'
secutive declines have brought it
to a position which, technically,
is oversold and if it is not able
to state a strong rally from here
something is basically wrong.
Martin Gilbert of Van Alstyne,
Noel & Co. says that there is still
measure of uncertainty, both
domestic and international, which
could further depress prices.
However, for the time being, he
feels that technical strength will
prevail.
Leslie M. Pollack of Reynolds &
Co. feels that any international
agreements which permit the gov
ernment to diveit expenditures
from military uses to more pro
ductive uses are beneficial to the
slock market.

Demo Solon Says Rail Plan
Leads To
WASHINGTON fUPU - A
Democratic congressman charged
today that President Kennedy's
plan for settling the rails dispute
eventually would mean nationali
zation of the nation's railroads.
'To me, this is only the start."
said Rep. Harlcy Staggers of West
Virginia, a member of tlie House
Commerce Committee. The group
is considering Kennedy's plan to
let the Interstate Commerce Com
mission (ICC) settle the thorny
work rules issue which is the core
of the dispute.
A Republican committee mem

Local Residenfs Attend
Indian Rights
A number of Klamath County
residents attended a meeting in
Yreka July 27 in the interest of
a settlement of Indian rights by
the U.S. Department of Justice.
About 40 were present.
The tribes, all in California,
have been declared eligible for the
sum of $29.1 million payment on
California Indian land claims dat
ing back more than 100 years, at
torneys for the Indians have dis
closed.
A spokesman for the Justice De
partment has confirmed the
agreement.
Actual settlement lor the land,
taken during the gold rush days
of the 1850s, now hinges upon ac
ceptance by the U.S. Indian
Claims Commission, tlie Indian
groups concerned, and the secre
tary of the Interior as guardian
or trustees for the Indians.
Appropriation of the money will
be up to Congress.
Grass Fires

Pacific right of way in Klamath

be doing a great disservice to the
future of free collective bargain

avenues of collective bargaining
had been exhausted in the dis
pute a point also advanced by
Ihe rail unions.
Staggers said Kennedy's plan
amounted to compulsory arbitra
tion and would lead to further
steps in the same direction.
"Then you are going to nation

England," he declared.
The statements by Bennett and

Meeting
If ultimately accepted, the
proposed settlement with three
groups, tlie Indians of California,
Pit River and Mission Indians,
would be one of tho largest judg
ments in the history of the claims
commission.
The proposed payment to the
California Indians would be for
64 million acres. The $29.1 mil
lion is the net amount after sat
isfaction of government claims for
about $3 million worth of gratui
tous payments and benefits given
the Indians by the federal govern
ment. Clowns Dot
Circus Acts
The great P. T. Barnum, who
brought circus acts to millions of!
leople, once said, "Clowns and
elephants are the pegs upon which
the circus is hung."
The Polack Bros. Shrine Circus,
that brings enjoyment to old and
young, also plays a very definite
part in the lives of crippled chil
dren because the gate receipts
above expenses are sent by the
Klamath Falls Shrine Club to the
Crippled Children's Hospital at
Portland.

areas.
Copies of these reports are
available at the county library,
Blackmail indicated.
since hearings on the proposal
began last Wednesday.
Earlier, a top rail negotiator
asked Congress to stay out of the
rail dispute for the time being on
grounds that recent collective bar
gaining had been fruitful.
Labor Secretary W. Willard
Wirtz was reported to hold the
opposite view.
H. E. Gilbert, president of the
Brotherhood of Locomotive Fire
men and Enginemen, said recent
discussions between management
and labor bore out his contention
that both parties could and should
settle the four-year-old controver
sy without special legislation.
"Light of Dawn"
"The sky is not entirely black
and 1 think I can see the light of
the dawn a turn for the belter
in our negotiations," Gilbert told
the House Commerce Committee.
Gilbert, like the presidents of
the other four operating brother
hoods, is vehemently opposed to
the administration plan.
He said the legislation would
constitute compulsory arbitration,
even though Kennedy and Wirtz
maintain that it is not.
He told Congress that if it pass-
i the President's resolution, it
would mean the beginning and
not the end of congressional in
volvement in labor negotiations.
Finally, Gilbert said; the ICC,
because of its background, was
not equipped to handle the labor
dispute.
Favors Meany's Proposal
Gilbert echoed the brotherhoods'
recently-developed argument that
energetic government mediation-
something they claim has been
lacking during most of the nego
tiations could spur settlement
He suggested to the committee
that it accept the plan proposed
by AFL-CIO President George
Meany. It would provide for con
tinued collective bargaining under
the eye of a congressional watch
dog committee.
Gilbert's statement that recent
talks were fruitful did not jibe with
the feelings of Wirtz.

Just before he came on, three
security guards lifted the velvet

peered under the table to see
that no assassins were hidden
there and inspected the water
pitcher and glass to see that no

suburban residents have turned
lo the special service district as
a means of providing needed ur
ban services. In the Klamath sub
urban area 11 siiccial service dis
tricts are presently operating to
provide basic urban services.
Among the siiccial services dis

tricts, three irrigation districts
one sewer district, three school
districts one park district, a
mosquito control district and wa

"Tlie special serviec district ap

the suburbs reach a population
density high enough to require a
full range ol urban services-
sewers, water, street maintenance,
street lighting, police and fire pro

In the report the planner also
discusses the possibility of sub
urban annexation to the city.
"Considering the debt limits of
the city and almost complete
lack of urban service facilities in
the suburban area (fire hy
drants, street lights, parks', there
real question as to the ad
visability of the city accepting
the annexation of the entire sub
urban area," Blackman said.
Included in the report are vari
ous charts showing such things
as a comparison of service
charges in the city and suburban
areas including Altamont, Lake-
shore, Moyina, Pelican, Shasta

The charts show there is not
much difference in the total annu

Mrs. Ochiho
To State Penitentiary
Zelma Joan Ochiho, 42, three
times accused of first degree
murder since 1956, was trans-i
fcrred from the county jail to
the State Penitentiary yesterday
to serve a term of not more
than seven years as the result of
the most recent of lliose charges.
Mrs. Ochiho, charged with tlie
first degree murder of Mrs, Flor-,
ence Hum during a snooting
March 19, was permitted to plead
guilty to a lesser charge of man
slaughter after a jury failed to
agree on a verdict following her
trial, July 12. She was later fined
$1,500 and sentenced by Circuit
Court Judge Donald A. W. Piper
to serve the prison term on tlie
manslaughter charge.
The first charge of first degree
murder was made against Mrs.
Ochiho and her then husband,
Berdette. in 1956 when the couple
was implicated in the rifle slay
ing of Edison Duffy, a 50-ycar-old
ex-convict. Duffy's frozen body
was found with a bullet hole
through its head at the bottom of
ravine on Highway 97, about a
mile north of Klamath Falls.
The case against the couple was
later dismissed when the key wit

areas lie between these figures.
"There s not much difference
between the city and suburban
areas in total cost, the real dif
ference lies in the services each
area is getting for the annual
outlay." Blackman emphasized.
As one of the charts shows,
for instance, while the city is
served by a sanitary sewer sys
tem, Stewart - Lenox, Lakeshore
and Pelican City are served by
cesspools and septic tanks, and
while 25 full-time firemen protect

The chart also indicates that
the entire suburban area, 20.000
residents, are protected by four
full-time police officers, while the
city's 17.000 residents are served
by a city police force of 34 full-
