Interests Identical "The railroad development con troversy appears to hare gotten in a mess, and In order to bring ' about the development that we most need, Klamath certainly should Join with Its friends across the state line. All o' our Inter ests In this -matter are the same. We want the line and you want the line. We hope that we, who have always been friends with your community, may fight shoulder to shoulder with you on this pro position." Avoid Building Delays The Modoc county representa tives will appear before the board of directors of the Klamath coun ty chamber of commerce tomorrow and make their appeal for action to prevent the possibility of the whole railroad development pro position becoming so Involved with various conflicting Issues, disputes of various communities, the Ore gon Public Service commission's an tagonistic attitude toward the Al turas line, and other considerations that may bring on lawsuits and delay In railroad building la this territory for many years.

American aent commissioner um handed Joseph Caillaux and bis col leagues unother proposal for fund- 'ing the $4. !00. 000.000 French dobt i to the 1'nlted States. The American ! proposal In effect reiterates the pre Ivious American demand, but It Is ' understood has some modifications. I "The situation is not gloomy, but It Is not going along as we would illke It to go." it was stated by a jhifh American authority Monday. following the delivery of the Ameri can proposal to the French. Two brief meetings at the treas ury building resulted in the delivery of the American proposal, consisting of several typewritten pages. In the morning the commissions were to gether about 25 minutes, during which Caillaux re-stated his first of fer to pay In a formal document, which was distributed among the Americans, and then made a telling speech In English for negotiations on those terms. He said that pri vate conversations he has had with Mellon had shown It possible to reach a compromise on some points. COUNCIL CALLS FOR SPECIAL ELECTION (Continued from Pago One) way on this side of the Upper lake. Grade Wantland Ave. Grading of .the streets in Mills addition. particularly Wantland avenue, which la declared to be In a disgraceful condition was asked by tbe council. While no action has been taken on the Improvement of Linkville cemetery the council is by no means going to drop the subject. It was suggested last night that voluntary subscriptions be asked of those relatives of deceased buried In Linkville " cemetery first, and if this sum proved inadequate the en tire public would be asked to con tribute of a free will. It is esti mated that $3,500 would put the cemetery in proper condition and once -the improvement was com pleted the city - would maintain it that way under its own wing. SMITH ENTERS RACE FOR COUNCIL SEAT (Continued from Page One) night to be a candidate. "At all times In the past has the role of a councilman in this city been an Important one. However, It seems to me we are now on the threshold of some of tbe city's most vital problems. Important problems of today will be disposed of and to morrow there will be others of equal . import. I City's Interest at Heart "Regarding the problems of to morrow permit me to say that, as in deciding those of today. It elect ed, I will be guided solely by a de sire to act toward the best intrests of the city. I have no axe to grind with anyone; I am under no obliga tions to anyone. I shall. If elected, throughout my term of office strive with this one big purpose in view : development of this community for the welfare of the community. In other words I am for progresslveness here, meeting every Issue squarely in the face and deciding It on Its merits regardless of the consequ ences. "I may have to disagree with the mayor and with other members of the council at times, but I will strive for a spirit of harmony In the city council. For Rail Develooment "The rail question Is uppermost In the mind of the city at the present time, perhaps. I stand for all Tail development we can possibly get for the Klamath country. I favor the entrance of tbe northern lines Into this section. At the same time 1 am not antagonistslc to the South ern Pacific, for I realize that in the proposed development program lies one of the greatest boons to the de velopment of Klamath. "A prompt solution of the deplor able sanitary conditions here Is vital to this city. A new sewage system is needed and It must be worked out, contingent on our expenses, as quick ly as possible. Moro Police Protection "I favor a bigger and better police force. Klamath Falls has not had adequate police protection for some time In the past.
