StrvrnfMin and Jr. AV.' McDonald, i ' J U The Sunnyside Irrigation district, represented by ita president, Harry Boss, appeared before the board of survey and adjustment at the court house yesterday morning,, with a complaint of excessive water charges for their land, which drew tho closest attention of tho board, and judging from the expressions of the exumlners, Mr. Boss' neighbors will certainly be recommended relief by Messrs. Campbell, Goodwin and Del zell. Mr. Boss said the heads of the local reclamation service had orig inally promised tho Sunnyside set tle that the charges for bringing water to their land would be $15 per acre, with possibly an additional levy of a dollar or so. but the facts 1 were that when these settlers ac- luauy ' to pay J34 per acre, and they cer - tuinly felt they had a kick coming.

At ameet- lng of the state highway association ! today, the county judge of Lake co"nty advised that every effort would bo made to flrtvance the lm- provemeni ot me Kiamatn rails- Lakevlew highway through the 'quartz valley section. This is a for est road project. In the meantime the countv was authnrizpri In nrn. ; ceed with the Lakevlew-Drcws val ley end.j A survey pf the' road south Lakevlew to the California boun dary was authorized. Because an alleged "speed trap" Is maintained at Gold Hill, the Ore gon State Motor association laid be fore' the commission a proposition to build a new road on the west Bide of Rogue river to go around the town. It la charged that the revenue derived from finea levied on tourists for exceeding the speed lim it and other infractions of the traf fic laws are made the perqusites of certain officials and that conse quently they are levied on the slight est pretext, with the result that tourists are boycotting the state. It was represented that a new route could be constructed at a cost which would compenaato for the loss, of "about three miles of paved highway and two bridges. The proposed change of routo is not endorsed by the Jackson county court, which, looks upon the local condition at Gold Hill as merely a passing one, which will soon be cured by public sentiment. pling are belng ma(la fof the 'construction of a new bridge at the sol,lllern end of tne town by county nml 8tUe Bida w probal)lv be called for at the June meeting.

"But I've never been brought Into It before. Thla time I am reported as negotiating for ground for a Southern Pacific terminal here. Well, Ita rather sudden news to me. Certainly I never committed myself to such a statement or even a hint of it. "You want my personal views? Well, It would be the finest thing Klumath Falls ever gained a ter minal point of the S. P. main line. You would, have a city of 25,000 to 30,000 within a few yeara if that were the case. I wouldn't have given my opinion, but since I am reported to be working for the S. P. surely I couldn't take a neutral stand. It may come, I surely hope so. But so far as I know there's absolutely nothing definite either pro or con."

Relief Plans Made For Pole Trampers OSLO, Norway, May 28. Nor wegian governments! and aeronau tic authorities are perfecting ar rangements for the relief of the Amundsen-Ellsworth polar expedit ion, now absent more than a week, but have decided to defer for a few days any large-scale rescue efforts. ' The Norwegian airplane society decided today to ask Donald B. Mac Millan, the American explorer, to look out for Amundsen when Mac- MIllan arrives near Cope Columbia, on Grantland, north of the Green land coast.

Official Paper of City of KLAMATH FALLS Price Five Cent COPCO ATTACKED LODD SHELL FIRE Detonations Sound Far In Night But Shelling To Continue The greater part of the oil day bearing before the Board of Sur vey and Adjustment yesterday waa taken up by the Klamath Irrigation district officials in their attack on the sale of the Ankeny and Keno canala of April, 1923 to the Cali fornia Oregon Power company, and in the mass of testimony and reams of reports Introduced, the water users played their trump card In the introduction of a report on the water supply of Upper Klamath lake compiled by Consulting. Engi neer A. H. Lamm, of Portland, a graduate of Hanover university, the report tending to establish 4hat with 315,000 irrigable acres claim ed to be tributary to Upper Klam ath, fully developed there would be a shortage of water. The re port also pointed out that with two successive years of drouth, suclras 1924 a much less area of land on the project under Irrigation would impoverish the supply. Newell Disagree Disagreeing with 15 n gin e. 7 Lamm's figures in part, H. D. New ell, superintendent of the Klamath project said the engineer's Teport was too high in claiming an ulti mate IrrigabU area cf 75.000' acres: in Tule lake.' Mr. Newell said a maximum of 35,000 acres were all that could ever be expected to be irrigated in that great ' drained basin. Also the visiting engineer Included some 65,000 acres In Low er KTamattr lake, and apea"king of said the -development of Lowej Klamath hinged on the soli survey to be .made this summer. If the soli was proven unsuited for grir culture the whole area would again be flooded and consequently deduct ed from Lamm's total. Also the Lamm report took some 75,000 acres of Indian land into consid eration, and as this area which Mr. Newell admitted was substantially correct, lies at an elevation higher than the lake, It Would be necessary draw on streams Tunning into Up per Klamath for Its water supply, and tho surplus and drainage water from these acres under irrigation would run back into the lake. This was not taken into consideration in the report. , Much Controversy i Considerable controversy was taken up relatlro to Lower Klam ath lake's Irrigable area should water from Upper Klamath be re quired for .its development. ' Mr. Newell took only 27,000 acres there' into consideration, that area 'Celng located on the Oregon side of ihe line In what is known as .the Klam ath drainage district. At this point Attorney Carnahan made a heated objection, saying "why are you re fusing to consider approximately 60,000 acres of the same kind ot land that lies just across the stale line in California, all in the same body? You don't contemplate Ir rigating that land because the wa ter is needed to turn the turbines of the California Oregon Power company at Copco." At this point Chairman Campbell of the board took the following sharp issue with Mr. Carnahan. "Tule lake Is not being opened UP for settlement at the present time because the depart ment of the Interior and 'he 'act finding board of which I was a member, recommended that no more er projects, until mere was a con- ceptlon ot agriculture and a "hack to the farm" movement all over the country. Lower Klamath -If It is to be reclaimed will be con sidered the! same way. You see Mr. Carnahan, I know these things , from my years experience In this, work, while you draw on your sus picions." Carna'oan replied, "Very violent ones." Mr. Coodwln of the hoard added, "Certainly very vio lent." Mr. Campbell continued , "Your Interjection Is Just fling at this "octopus" (referring to the power company) but It does not (Continued on Page Two) . 'uses
