- Page Eight THE KLAMATH NEWS Thursday, January 13, 1027. Frank Ira White Klamath Booster With the Northern llnei holdlnn property In Klamath Falls for loca-, ' lion of terminal facilities. It Is ex-: peeled that construction ci the line i from Bend lo Klamath Falls will be started early In the spring, said Frank Ira White, former manager of of the foreign trades department of the Portland chamber of com-; mere, while on a vUlt to Portland, i aaya the Oregonlan. White has been In Klamath Falls . for about a year, and contemplates ' placing ci the market, an a residt'n-1 t!al district, his tf-acre farm, which ', la a short distance from the renter of town, and which Is near the! Klamath county fair ground. Prospect for the growth and de-. elopment of the city are excellent. , White said, and It la predicted that I the population will double in the . next two or three years. When , data waa compiled for the city dl-. rectory the count showed the pc-pu-l lation at the end o( 192 to be I 15.000. I "Situated as It is In a trade terrl-: tory of Its own. and without compe-j tit ion. Klamath Falls undoubtedly! will be the second city in site in j the atate of Oregon." said White, j "The trade area of Klamath Falls Includes some fine timber Undo, ag ricultural lands and some of the best recreational parts cf the Pacific northwest Klamath lake and the famous Crater lake. "Industrially the city Is develop ing beyond all expectations. The coming; of the Southern Pacific has opened the territory, and the advent of the Northern lines will augment ; -tne c"" service and afford a new v. market for the Klamath district, - At present the industries of the city . la -order of rank are lumbering and .Industries silled to wood, the rail : road terminal and agriculture. - 'Wfth the tendency apparent to .ward remanufacture of lumber Into finished products before shipment. "It Is apparent that for some time to come the primary industry of the . region will be lumbering. The Shaw Bertram plant Is contemplating the Installation of a $110,000 dry kiln so as to be able to cure Its lumber throughout the entlre'year. Plants ' manufacturing finished wood pro ducts are coming into the city now. ...and inquiries for locations from such '.. plants are increasing daily. "There Is at present a housing thortaee in Klamath Falls, and from present indications the LniMing pro gram of this year will equal, it not exceed that of test ye- Klamath Ftls" building program rhswed a greater percentage of gain .luring lS!t than any other city on the Pa cific coast." which indicates the growth of the city Itself, especially " as there are not enough buildings to house the people and industries. The major projects now nearing completion are the Willard and ..Hampton hotels and a (350.000 the atre building. . "Anc-:her favorable factor is the settlement of the farm lands and the bringing of them into intensive production. Most of the farms are small in niie. best suited for one man to operate. Prospects for crops in the dry farming districts for the coming year are excellent, due to ; the X'ne rains. In November the rainfall amounted to eight inches. - which Is approximately cne-half the average rainfall. A goodly store of -water, in the form of snow, his leen laid up in the mountains."

Builders Favor Five-Day Week Rigid Enforcement Of Law in Klamath "There will be no halfway meas-j ures in the enforcement of the city; ordinance and state law which cover regulation of card playing in pool balls," Chief of Police Keith Am brose told a few of the pool hall 1 operators Tuesday night when they objected to the tightness of the lid ' . that local police clamped down on : gambling over a week ago. Complaint of the poolroom own-' ere waa that since police started en forcing the ban on playing cards either for money or exchange trade checks, they have been losing money ' and now desire the city administra tion to allow more liberality in the conduct of their pool halls and card games.

"So far, as 1 am concerned, the city ordin-i ance governing this point will he ' strictly enforced for at least six months," Mayor Walters declared. .
