Tule Lake Lands
"The Klamath project and the
Tale lake bomeetead area con
atltute an agricultural bet as fine
a any I have ever een."
These were the words of J. F.
j Bergeech, Irrigation engineer here
since Monday conducting an In-
restlgatlon of the economic stabl-
my of the Tule lake lands for
the World War Veterans. State
Aid committee, when Interviewed
concerning the loan pntlook for
this area, last night.
While Bergeech was not in a
position to state his attitude in
the matter of loans for the ex
service men who populate most
of the Tule lake homesteads, due
to the fact that his report will
be made public only by the com
mittee for which he conducted
the investigation. It is generally
believed by those in touch with
the situation here that his rec
ommendations will be favorable.
"My work here has consisted
of endless Interviews with people
on the homesteads and with
agencies and officials most close
ly In touch with conditions on
mass of data which I have gath
ered here, I will make a full re
port to the state aid committee.
It is fully up to them of course,
as to what action will be taken
relative to pjaclng loans here."
Bergesch'a visit is the out
growth of a plea made before tne
committee by A. M. Thomas, sec
retary of the Klamath Irrigation
district, and others from this J
county, asking more leniency In
placing loans on the Tnle lake
