WALL STREET WALL STREET NEW YORK IUPD Strength in chemicals paced an irregu larly higher stock market to point in the chemicals. General Motors moved up nearly 2 to a new high for the year. Xerox was up around 14. Chrysler weakened. Drugs moved lower after the Senate monopoly subcommittee confirmed that it is studying se cret documents of a worldwide cartel which allegedly rigs drug prices. Baxter Labs, Merck, Pfizer, Rexall and Johnson & Johnson paced the downside. Wall Street Chatter NEW YORK (UPD-Colby & Co. continues to be of the opinion that the Dowjones in dustrial average can advance another fifteen points to about 775.00 before important correc tion intervenes. "Consideiing the present high degree of speculation in some issues, it added, we think short swing accounts must be very warm, but long term in vestment managers can just sit it out with holdings and add to these during periods of inevit able general market weakness. Over the long term the stock market is going a lot higher.' Investment adviser James Dines says that the correct market strategy here "is to en large the portion of portfolios in selected uptrended issues, pro tected by properly placed stops." "The fundamental position of the market continues strong," says E. F. Hutlon & Co. "Earn ings for the final quarter prom ise to be good. tThesc will add substance to the price rise which historically takes place in No vember and December in the stock market. We look for high er prices for the balance of this year and into 1964." Spear & Staff points out that for the last month, the Dow Jones industrial average has been rather volatile within a fairly narrow price range. "Over the near term this pat tern is likely to continue and to be accentuated by trading lor tax purposes and changes in the short position. We prefer to remain conservative and ad vise limited purchases," the advisory service bays. Livestock KLAMATH FALLS Livestock Auction Market Ont. 28 Receipts: All Cattle. 1300: Hogs 6; Sheep 30.

The two city boards have had a running appraisal of their properties through the years, made by an independent firm. The county schools prefer to use appraisals by an insurance firm and have refused to pay for an independent appraisal by t h e city s c h o o I s' firm. The city schools have offered, however, to investigate the possibility of using the county schools' insur ance firm to make an appraisal of city school properties. But some city school directors have remained cool to this proposal. This snag in the division of as sets discussions has led to the probability that the city and county schools will submit sepa rate division of assets proposals to the county court for its consideration.

City Will Buy More Salt And Seek Second Machine (Continued from Page 1) The city of Klamath Falls has been divided into six areas, each to be serviced by a snow plow. Paul Hamblin of the city street department said each plow will be concerned with its area and will be in operation until the main streets of that area arc clear. Three techniques plowing, salting and hauling will be used in the city to keep traffic moving. The city now has a halt-carload of salt on hand and is call ing for bids on another 45.000 pounds. It has one salt machine and Sister Visits 1 Mrs Clarence Fowler of Ford. Kan., is a guest in Klamath Falls She was met in Reno Oct. 2t alter arriving by jet.

Hamblin said the primary con cern of city crews w ill be to keep the main streets clear at all times. These include the streets in the business area, and such other roadways as South Sixth and Alameda Drive. As these are cleared, the plows will turn to the less important feeder streets. Hamblin emphasized that the plows will not be on call for individual problems such as blocked driveways, because they are needed for more important work It is planned this year that the slate and the city will coop, crate on keeping clear those streets that serve also as high ways. These include South Sixth and Main streets. Two Runaways Give Up Here Two boys, aged 17 and 14. who ran away from their homes in Oakridgc Monday morning walked into the Klamath Falls Police Department and surren dered Monday evening.

Burglarized Pharmacy Klamath Falls police are in vestigating the burglary of Brodcrick's Pharmacy, 2212 South Sixth, which was report ed Monday. It is believed tlie burglar who entered Broderick's may be the same one that hit tlie AAA of fice on Esplanade early Sunday morning.

Condemnation Action Aimed At 20 Cabins Building Insector V e r n Schortgen Monday night re newed the city's campaign against substandard housing by beginning condemnation pro ceedings against more than 2D South Sixth Street cabins owned by H. M. Mallory. Schortgen appeared before the City Council Monday night and the councilmcn agreed to draw up a resolution setting the date for a public hearing on the condemnation. It was the first condemnation action since Schortgen. City Manager Robert Kyle, Mayor Kobert Vcatch and the council were sued by Frank Weaver, owner of four buildings that the council condemned as being sub standard. Schortgen said the Mallory cabins arc hazards to health and safety. In other action the council postponed a public hearing on the vacation of a portion of Oak Avenue so that Modoc Lumber might expand its facilities. Tho, vacation has been opposed by another property owner. The hearing will resume next month. The council also heard an ap plication by Dugan and Mest Chevrolet for vacation of a por tion of Willow Street to allow construction of a new showroom by tlie company and a hearing on that proposal w ill be held in December. The council approved a 10 year franchise for Klamath Ca ble TV and also approved an agreement between the city and the South Suburban Sanitary District. A delegation from the First Baptist Church appeared to seek a conditional use jiermit so that a new church might be built at the end of Eldorado Avenue. Proceedings were s t a r t e d to gland this permit. Councilmen approved pur chase of a new salt spreading machine, the construction of a storage building at Moore Park, and the sale of candy by stu dents in the city. Councilmcn approved pur Designation Uncertain SALEM (CPU Highway De jiartmcnt officials have not yet decided whether to try again to get a U. S. route designation for the Winncmucca - to - tlie Sea Highway, it was revealed today. An application for route desig nation was turned down last week by tlie American Associa tion of State Highway Officials route numbering committee. Reason given for the rejection was that the route was "not up to acceptable standards" of de sign and construction. No state route number has been assigned to the highway and the highway department re fuses even to recognize that a Winncmucca - to - the - Sea Highway exists. The route begins in Win ncmucca Nev., but there is still controversy over where it ends. Some say the terminus is at Coos Bay; others claim Cres cent City, Calif. 23 le&ti A(ja Monday, October 28, 1940 Friday was o red Irtttr rlov lor Klamoth Falls mivie (ons when no less than live stors were in the citv within the space of o few hours.

Tribe Files Answer In Lawsuit The Klamath Indian Tribe has filed its answer to a suit by the U.S. National Bank seeking to establish whether trust funds can be spent for a study of trib al properties. The remaining members of the tribe voted Sept. 20 to seek a study of their multi-million-dol-lar properties before voting next spring on whether to maintain the present trust by the U.S. National Bank of seek olher ways of managing their prop erties. The bank contends that ex penditure of trust funds for this purpose is illegal and has filed suit in circuit court in Portland to determine the legality. Klamath Indians also seek ex penditure of tribal funds to com pensate memlwrs of the execu tive committee (or their efforts on behalf of tlie Indians. Their answer to the bank's suit charges that voting next spring without a study to sup ply them with inormation might result in "irreparable harm" to the value of the prop erties. The answer says that the value of the properties might exceed $30 million, but that the bank recently estimated the val ue at $18 million. The Indians say the study, which would cost an estimated $10,000. would determine the effectiveness of the bank's pres ent management, plot what termination of the trust would mean to the properties, study alternatives to the present trust, and compare tlie present trust to the alternatives. The bank has yet to file its answer to the Indians claims and it is expected that the suit will not come In trial before the latter part of November.
