ENGINEER IS SHY IMPORTANT FACTS County Did Not Fail In Agreement TOOK OVER CLEARING Federal Man Claims Work Not Done According To Contract fflBMLMTKAlllE Franc Continues to Fall Reaching 26.99 to the Dollar PARIS, Dec. 11. (United News) Rumors of anothec cabinet crisis are thickening the political atmos phere ot Paris. France is groaning In anticipation ot the heavy taxea which Finance Minister Loucheur proposes to collect ln his effort to stabilize the franc. Before stabilisation can be achiev ed, Loucheur told the chamber of deputies finance committee Friday, the French debt to the United States must be settled. By sending Sen ator Henri Berenger to Washington as French ambassador, the govern ment hopes to expedite the settle ment. Whother a storm Is gathering which would blow Loucheur. and perhaps tbe entire Brland cabinet, from office, Is not yet evident. The best for which the government can hope is a hot fight In tho chamber, and perhaps victory. The dollar exchange quotation which has been a barometer In Eur ope since the war, was falling Fri day. The franc closed at 26.99 to the dollar. C. It. Purcell, district engineer of tbe United States bureau ot roads, Is undoubtedly "misinform ed" regarding the action of tbe Klamath county court when, re cently, he charged that the county had failed to live up to its agree ment with the state and federal government. Such was tha statement last night of Charles Martin, county commissioner, when , Interviewed regarding Purcell's announcement. "I have no desire to attack Mr. Purcell, but I tnink he has not all the facts regarding the case," Mar tin said. Purcell had, according to newspaper stories, said he would not favor apportioning further road funds to Klamath county.' "It's thi. way," Mr. Martin ex plained quietly. "There are times when it is impossible to accom plish a certain thing. In the first place one firm ot contractors, Loe & Harris, hadn't completed, their contract, but that clearing has now been done. 'fr' Sent Crew ' t 0:'' c-'untir rnnrt tont . . of men ic the forest section of Tha Dalles-California highway, and saw that the work was completed. I believe it is reasonable to say tha county court did what It could In that instance." ' Regarding three contracts let last, year, It was necessary to wait for a bond Iasue to be voted, ln Novem ber, before the county had suffi cient funds with' which to proceed, Mr. Martin explained. "It la my opinion that Mr. Pur cell was. not justified In attacking us as he is reported to have done," Mr. Martin insisted. "Furthermore the county court ot Klamath is do ing all ln its power to improve road conditions." c Purcell, according to reports, had charged that clearing ot the high Way was not done according to con tract, which provided that the tim ber was to be piled up and burned and that everything waa to be ready for the 'grading contractor. This was not done, he told the highway commission, and as a re sult (he contractor was delayed and extra work became necessary. Ml I1IIAY CAN AITKAL SALEM. Dec. 11.
