Legion Delegates To Convention Are Elected At Smoker A large group of American Legion members gathered at the chamber of commerce .last night where they were entertained with an Impromp- lo reform school. Ho did t smoker In addition to their reg- Thls declaration, it Is learned Is contained In the note which the counsel of ambassadors has drafted advising Germany the allies cannot withdraw their troops from Cologne now, because Germany has not dis armed. The delivery of the docu ment to the Berlin government has been postponed until Thursday. The note reiterates that Ger many's violations of the treaty have been serious and concludes, with an expression of the hope that thoy will soon be corrected. Delivery of the note will consti tute one of the two steps necessary to bring the problems of German disarmament and security out of the hazy stage which has surround ed them for the past several months. The second will be the dispatch of the French reply to Germany's proposals for a European security pact. Flagrant Violations The disarmament note, including an annex which reveals Germany's violations will be published, but the allies withhold partB of the report made by the commission ot control, which formed the basis of the note. It is Indicated the powers made this decision so as to prevent agitation which might arise from publica tion of the chargers against .Ger many and Interfere with negotia tions for the settlement of disarm ament and security.

Af their next regular meeting, two weeks from last night, the Legion plans to outline a campaign with an object of lining up the Klamath community for a 100 per .am nhaervance of national holi days. The fact that some stores rrn,l to close Decoration Day was commented upon most unfavor ably.

M. Collier at, the luncheon of the directors of the chamber of commerce yesterday. This new Industry In Klamath county was commented upon most favorably by the directors. The planting of this crop and lis care and harvest will require the em ployment of some 30 men for the greater part of the' year, It was pointed out, and the gross Income from the first big wholesale let tuce planting with a normal yield will aggregate several thousand dollars. , Hunt and Saudey are consider ed the largest lettuce producers and dealers on the Pacific coast, operating farms In the Imperial val ley and In the Yakima valley. Wash. Credit, for Interesting these big producers here should go to Iloy Nelson, of Keno, Colllar said. Nelson is also planting five acres in lettuce and 80 acres In sugar boots. A half cocked report that District Attorney Ganong would fire his assistant, W. P. Myers within a week, or at most a month went haywire last night when District Attorney Ganong, talking over long distance from the Veterans' hnsnllAl at Walla Walla made an official I SDaH towards encouraging rail statement to the Klamath News that i road development In the Klamath the report was utterly without , counX considered one of the most foundation. I vl,a' Questions up for consldera- When told the source of the ln-!tlca at the Present "me formation that he was going to! Collier said that it was his idea fire Myers. Ganong only laughed that the directors merely discuss and said; "That accounts for It." all angles of the matter and with Thore Is no change in thtf situ atlon whatever," Ganong declared to the News. It is exactly as I told you when I visited Klamath Falls on the occasion of the arrival of my baby son. If, within the next few months, my condition Is favor able I shall return to my office In Klamath Falls, and at present have no Idea of making any changes. On the other hand, if my condition is not Improved to such an extent that I will be forced to remain here for any great length of time,' I shall resign the office of district attorney. If I should resign, and the district attorney who succeeds me wishes to make a change In his office, that will be up to him. But the report you Just gave me Is entirely unfounded, and the situation remains the same. When I resign I shall let you know about it." Speeder Fired On In Attempt To Escape Law Traffic Officer Forced To Fire Dozen Shots; Driver Escapes i the aid of the railroad committee to be appointed this week, arrive at a thorough understanding ot the problem then submit the board's recommendations to the member ship for final action. We can't lose sight ot the ad vantage to this community of a rail road which would tap the wonder ful Merrill and Malin countries, Collier pointed out. The day has come when we must stand back, of whatever railroad "offers help to the struggling Klamath county far mers. Some ot the directors asked what material benefit would accrue from an agricultural standpoint If the northern roads built into Klamath. On this-point there appeared to be considerable difference of opinion! Director Mortenson, who was pre sent said the chamber must not lose sight of the fact that It was not desirable to have Klamath Falls the whistling post for passing trains, and that lines branching out from here appeared most worthy ot con sideration. Chasing a speeder going approxi mately BB miles nn hour and firing shots in an attempt to puncture the speeding car's tires, County Traffic Officer It. E. Knowles final ly lost out. near Bonanza yester day when the have been Owen Miller deserted the car and lost himself in the woods. The thrilling chase lasted for several miles. It started west of Bonanza. The driver is reported to have looked around and seen knowles driving toward him. Im mediately he fed the car more gas. Seeing that the man was showing contempt, Knowles was forced to slow down his car con siderably, to enal-le him to fire a dozen shots in an effort to puncture a tire. When the speeding car was about 500 yards in the lead, the driver and a companion desert ed It and ran Into the woods and could not be located by Knowles, who confiscated the machine. Other violations of the day were: J. S. Shepherd. Allie Clark and Harold Enstrand. The trio drew fines of from $10 to $16 and costs. A. L. Morris, parEIng on the high way was fined $5. STIFF SENTENCE L No mercy was given by Justice of the Peace J. O. Hamaker of Bo nanza, yesterday, when H. Laruo, who was arrested early Sunday as the keeper of a gambling house and liquor at 13 Main street, was given The committee appointed by President A. M. Collier to draw up the program ot work for the chamber of commerce for the com ing year met yesterday afternoon and decided upon the following tentative suggestions to be taken up subject to the approval of the directorate: j 1. Agriculture and Land Settle ment, under the following subdiv isions, to encourage the productions and marketing of home products, diversification ot crops, and co-operation with Klamath County Fed erated board. 2. New Industries, with partic ular reference to bl-products ot the lumber industry, and the establish ment of sugar refineries here de pendent upon the success of the sugar beet raising experiment this year. 3. Community Advertising, the development ot community pride and a spirit of welcoming and as sisting new comers in the commun ity. 4. Civic Welfare, better streets, parks, zoning and city planning and Installation of street signs. 5. Roads and Highways, con- ARRIVE HERE FOR IMPORTANT MEET Endorse Mass Meeting In -Malin To Create Hill Line Sentiment One of the chief executives ot the Hill roads, L. C. Gllrrfan of Seattle, vice president of the Great Northern, arrived in Klamath Falls yesterday I afternoon, accompanied by C. A. Hart of Portland, general attorney for the Oregon Trunk line, and an Important meeting was held last night with the following formidable array of high engineering author! ties ot the Northern system: A. H. Hogeland, consulting engineer ot the Great Northern; P. E. Thlan, assist ant chief engineer of the Northern Pacific; A. J. Witchel, chief engineer of the Oregon Trunk, and O. V. Llntner construction engineer of the S. P. & S. system. "We are here to get first-hand reports on the progress of the sur veys which are being rushed from Bend to Klamath at this time," was the explanation of Mr. Hart, ot the visit of this important group ot railway men at this time. "Also we wish to look over the character of the country which the surreys are to be pushed through at the earliest possible moment." ' "There are tour crews in the tinned boosting for The Dalles- j tMi an1 everything possible Is being Reno Los Angeles highway connec tion .below Malin, and the creating of a separate road district within the corporate limits. 6. Railroads, a study of the rail road situation from all. angles and the support of . the railway pro gram which offers the most good to the whole county. ...In addition to. the above sug gestions it was the recommendation of the program committee that the entire membership of the chamber fill out questlonaires offering sug gestions for work to be taken up this coming year. . Efforts Being Made To Make Klamath a Big Turkey Country A determined effort to induce Klamath farmers to engage In the r.r no .lavs in tall nnd I turkey raising Industry is being driver believed to 500 fincV The charge in the case niade by Comity Agriculturist Hn yesterday was possession of liquor. According to the dlutric. attorney's office, charges o sc'.Ung ::quor, of gambling and of running a gambling house may be pressed later. Fay Morris, who represented Lnrue, in dicated that yesterday's case would be appealed. The fact that Larue maintained a gambling house in his grocery store, where school children daily bought candy, is considered a bad moral influence on minors. It is understood, several children had reported conditions nt the store prior to the arrest. Others taken in the two big Saturday night and Sunday morning raids will be tried later in the week. Fire in Hector's Store May Cause a Heavy Sum of Loss l-ORMAL COMPLAINT FOR FirKFOKD KIDNAPKRS KANT HWKLTKRIXG ' WASHINGTON, June 2. The present heat wave will hang over the eastern nnd southeastern states at least through Friday,. the weather bureau predicts, but It looks for lo-1 cal thunder showers In the lower lake regions, Ohio, the midtllo Mis sissippi valley and northern por tions of tho middle Atlantic states Thursday, which may bring some relief. derson. It was announced yesterday. "During the past two or three years I have often wondered why nioro turkeys were not grown for market in Klamath county. Inasmuch as climatic and feed conditions are ideal and our marketing conditions compare favorably with those of other sections, Mr, Henderson said. "The only drawback I can see is the fact that our production at the present time Is not large enough to insure marketing In calroad quan tities, causing several cents per pound additional charge tor shipping nnd pack'ng." An increase of 60 td 76 per cent in turkeys shipped out of here would put Klamath on the turkey map, according to Henderson. Turkeys have been shipped to the west coast from points as far away as Texas, and there Is no reason why Klam ath should not bid stronger for this profitable trade.
