lead and said he would answer
25 of tlie 42 questions to which
he had pleaded the Fifth

Creditors of Allied Crude hold
warehouse receipts for at least
1.3 million pounds of oil which
cannot be located. As a result
they stand to lose more than

Creditors began looking for
the oil after Allied Crude went
into bankruptcy last month
when it was unable to meet

Allied Crude's collapse led to
the failure of a large brokerage

UF Official Commends Kingsley
For Outstanding Donor's Record
Kingsley Field has the best
record of participation in tlie
United Fund Drive of any U S.
military establishment in t h e
world, according to the best in
formation available to Phil Par
sons, executive secretary of tlie
local UF campaign which has
attained 83.9 per cent of its goal
of $148,311 for IW.
Parsons told tlie members of
tlie Klamath County Chamber
of Commerce during its meet
ing Wednesday that civilian and
military personnel at the air
field kid donated a total of $'.),
361.84 during this year's drive,
for an average donation of $5.57

with the national average of
$2.15 contributed to the United
Fund by Federal Civil Service
employes throughout the na
tion," he stated.
Parsons said he has cliccked
with United Fund offices in
Portland, Salem, Eugeno and
New York and has yet to learn
