IÇ Editor TO THE EDITOR Extension study groups in Curry County each year select a health topic to create health awareness and improve the health of homemakers We know about 218.000 Americans will be saved from cancer this year, but early disease detec tion is imperative Through the American Cancer Society, the Extension study groups scheduled the mobile Cancer Detection Cline which had educational programs and ex aminations including the pap test and breast examination Ninety-five women were ex amined at the Cancer Detection Cllnb held at the County Health Office In Port Orford on Nov 14 A total of 349 Curry Coun ty women received exams d u r ing the three day visit to our county Many more women were Included In the Cancer Detection educational p ro grams One nurse who Is qualified to give pap tests accompanies the van Unfortunately, one nurse could not see every wo man who visited the van for an examination Dr Michael O'Gara spent Thursday mom I ng and Tuesday evening with the van Dr Ralph Whiting of North Bend contributed his time to give examinations Wednesday afternoon In Gold Beach To the many people who contributed time and effort to make the mobile Cancer De tection Clinic a success we ■ay THANK YOU Thanks to the doctors to the county health nurses who spent long hours in the examination rooms to Dorothea Miller. Health Office Supervisor, for her assistance and cooperation from the health office; to Ex tension study group members who worked as waiting room hostesses nursery attendants projectionists, and clerks, to the Port Orford Health Office for the use of their office and the Health office volunteers to local newspapers for fine publicity; and to the many other people who contributed time or services to this worthwhile cause A special thanks goes to the American Cancer Society and Mrs G ar nett Oekerman and Mr Bob McDonald Cancer Detection Clinic Personnel The response to the mobile Cancer Detection Clinic was overwhelming and we have r e quested another visit In March or April FRANCES LANE Cancer Clinic Chairman DORA L. RUMSEY Extension Agent TO THE EDITOR: In Congressman Dellenback’s concession statement, he ex. pressed appreciation for his exceptional staff both In Oregon and Washington, D.C. From our standpoint, we would like to offer our appreciation and thanks to Mr. Dellenback for the opportunity through him to be able to serve the Fourth Congressional District of O re gon. It has been a rare and r e warding experience. We know and respect con gressman Dellenback’s in tegrity, hard work and feeling of real concern for all the people he served, congress, man Dellenback has represent- Port Will Realtor Opens Buy Crane Fifth Office The port commission Tues day night agreed to purchase a three-etghths.yard crane from Harold Knapp for a price of $1,800. The equipment is in need of engine repairs, which are ex pected to be completed within a week, then the machine will be put to use In completing r e pairs to the dock. With the port’s old plledri- ver out of commission and the constant need for dock main tenance, the commissioners deemed the purchas* advisable to eliminate the necessity of having to borrow similar etjilp- ment from the county, which is not always available when it is needed. Lack of such equipment has already slowed down p res ent dock repairs by three weeks or so, commissioners said. Commissioners Bill Vincent and Frank Morris will attend a meeting at Oregon State u n i versity today to hear a verbal report on a study of the local port being made by a Marine Resource Problems class. A written report is expected sometime In mid-December. The port agreed to make ap plication to the city for use of the office space formerly occu pied by the municipal judge in the city hall. Port president, Paul Peterson, told commis sioners it was getting to the point where it was necessary to have one location where all port records could be kept. Commissioners tentatively agreed to Chang** port meetings ed this D istrict to the best of his ability. And that ability has produced a ra re blend of leader ship In the congress and real accomplishment for the Fourth District, for Oregon and for the Nation. By working within the Con gressional process one quick ly learns that there are certain Members of Congress who by their dedication, integrity and ability gain a special kind of respect from their fellow leg islators. The best testimony to Congressman Dellenback was that he gained this kind of r e spect from virtually all Mem bers; from Republican and Dem ocrat, from liberal and conser vative and from those tn be tween. The defeat of congressman John Dellenback Is a loss to us personally, but more im portantly it Is a great loss to the residents of the Fourth Dis trict. The standard of performance Mr. Dellenback set for the jot of representing the Fourth Dis tric t should be kept as a mea suring stick for all future hold e rs of this office. KEN DENNISON Ken Dennison Realtors has taken over the Roy L. 1 aPraim Real [stateofficein North Bend, It was announced this week. Dennison and his wife, June, are both realtors and co-bro kers in th- firm. They opened their first office her* in 1964, and it remains the head office. The firm has three other branches, located in Gold Beach, Bandon and Lakeside, and spec ializes in all types of real e s tate. from the third Tuesday to the third Monday, if a new date be comes necessary in order to secure the sen'ices of a port attorney. Maurice Englegau, who has served the port for about four years, resigned be cause of pressing business. The port is considering retaining attorney John Spicer of Gold Beach, but he is already com mitted to represent the Harbor Water District on the third Tuesday.

This 1RS generated c o rre s pondence is a survey to verify the accuracy of certain internal Revenue records for Oregon employers. The exact tax filing status of an organization Is to be determined through the m ail ing. Mr. Short said, "We ask em ployers receiving the question naire to assist us in the survey by completie , In some cases, employers may now be paying F1CA or FUTA taxes for which they are not liable. W e can remedy this situation if em ployers complete this form .’’ Re added that employers ar* asked to designate the type of organization or service they operate by checking a box on the questionnaire. Among the categories of organizations listed are Government agencies, state agencies, non-profit o r ganizations, economic oppor tunity act employers, maritime Industries and domestic corpor ations having applied for an additional employer identifica tion number for their foreign subsidiaries. If an employer does not fall into one of the categories listed on the notice, he is instructed to discard the survey letter, otherwise he is to return the completed form In the enclosed envelope to the Ogden Internal Revenue s e r vice Center.

The answer is that, like so many of the treatments available for our economic troubles public service Jobs relieve one trouble while they at least partially aggravate another Public service Jobs clearly relieve unemployment At the same time, however, they are costly and Involve federal spending that Is to some degree, In flationary Moreover, public service Jobs are not a permanent answer tc unemployment The long range answer Is. of course, improving he economy and.

TO THE EDITOR: And People of curry County: After working as chairman for the recent Mobile cancer Detection Clinic, I sympathize deeply with our physicians who have a waiting room full of patients. In our case the load was so heavy we had to do some screen ing, eliminating those with the lowest risk. Unfortunately, many were turned away because of lack of time. My sincere apologies to these ladies, and thanks to those who waited so patiently. The response to this project points up the fact that we, in Curry county, need more op portunities to have medical tests without taking up the tlmeofour doctors who, because of their work load, could not possibly examine all of the women who sought the services of the Mo bile cancer Detection Clinic, much less thedetection of heart, diabetes, and other insidious diseases. Early discovery of these cases is a necessity in preventing early death or physical Impair ment and we must take advan tage of every available source of detection. Our County Health Department does an excellent job as far as it is able but Is limited by restrictions and funding. It could and would do much more in disease detection with the back ing of the public. Again, my heartfelt thanks to all who gave their time and energy to the Mobile cancer Detection Clinic. tc * Q T m AA*- uetU 'M t s O K I t IK M .lt Whatever voui business is.
