An Independent Newspaper The Bnd Bulletin, Tuesday, January 31. 1956 What Teenagers Eat CHICAGO Apparently a lot of people in this area are worried about the diets of teenagers. At least, a teen ager complains that too many people are worrying. "Of course, some of the worriers are right," she says. As part of the general worry, she points to a teenage diet currently being printed daily by the Chicago Daily News. Most of them, she says, don't cat balanced diets, cither at home or at school. "Half the people in my school don't cat breakfast, then eat a sandwich and-or an applo for lunch. They go hojne and gorge themselves because they're hungry, and then they get fat. Then they cui down in the evening and half of them are undernourished as a result," she claims. (The same girl came home from school Tuesday after noon and knocked off a man-sized bowl of popcorn. She was still hungry when dinner was served a couple of hours later, believe it or not.) The answer, she claims, is to make people (she means teenagers, but apparently hates the word) realize what tHey're doing to themselves. They have no pep, they ruin their teeth, they de moralize their mothers, their health in later life is poor, and all sorts of things, she's found out. 5 A lot of their unhappiness about complexion prob- luma comes from diet troubles, sne hays. A lot or gins with figure problems would have better figures, she adds, if thev ate properly. Thr answer to the problem, she says, is to make them realize what they need in the way of diet, and how important it is to them. How to do this? ! After a long lot of double talk, she admits she doesn't kjiow. . And when her parents are out she still makes her djnner from everything that's in the refrigerator, rather tban cook the meal she's been told to cook. ''It's a.

V M if ir mmm'jii h i in Eds on In Washington Wide Difference in Plans Noted By I'KTKR KDSON KA Washington Correspondent WASHINGTON (NKA) Cam- panson of the Hoover Commis sion's recommendations for a new U S. water resources policy with President Eisenhower's Cabinet advisory committee shows few simllari'lies. The general objectives are the same to bring some order ut of a horrible mess. It has in'own into national scandal because of luck of central direction and the rivalries of 23 competing govern ment aRencies.

Circling the big moon was a colored crown. Calls were received by The Bulletin inquiring if the lunar circle of Ins many hues had any significance. Some had heard that the phenomenon heralded the approach of a bad storm. r Our local weatherman said the colored circle is known us n corona literally a crown. Coronas, we learned,' dif fer from the common halos in that colored circles are caused by the diffraction of the light passing through tiny globules of moisture. Halos arc the result of light passing through pa tides of ice, In those high ice clouds known as cirrus. Incidentally the temperature in Hend on that full moon night was seven above zero certainly no weather for unfrozen moisture to be drifting around. All ot wlm n indicates that it the man in the moon were looking earthward that chilly night he would have seen halos, not coronas, around our street lights.

The Hoover report recommended that the Department of Agriculture upstream flood control program be transferred lo Army engineers. rhe Eisenhower report passes up any idea of reorganizing any of ine a government agencies now- dealing with water resources. It recommends leaving them all in business nt the same old stands- some even enlarged but working together better in the future under ft ''coordinator." The Hoover Commission recom mended that Federal Power Com mission be given additional author ity over tile sale and production of all public power, and to raise power rates. The Eisenhower report took the position it was not politically real istic to get the government out of power production. It couldn't pass Congress, so why consider it?

Martin Jr. sought President Eisenhower's sup port today for a Democratic move to raise taxes on highway users to help pay for a big road-buildmg program. Martin promised House Demo cratic leaders last Friday he would bring up the matter with Mr. Eis enhower and other OOF congres sional leaders at their weekly White House conference today. He told newsmen afterward that he believed Mr. Eisenhower would asree to support higher taxes, in-i as much as the Democratic Con gress has flatly rejected l;o ad ministration plan for financing tne big highway program through sale of bonds. Democrats have, indicated that the tax Increases, to be drafted by the House Ways & Means Com mittee, will include a hike ot one cent in the present two-ceni-a- gallon federal tax on gaso'-ne. this would help pay the $36.5 billion federal share of a proposed 13- year $51 billion road-building pro gram.

Letters To The Editor To the Editor: Last July Mrs. Pope and myseli had the pleasure of spending few days of vacation in your beau tiful and friendly city and it has, been my Intention ever since to; write you. ...... We enjoyed your parks and the wild ducks, the pretty homes, the Century Drive and other jwints ol interest in the vicinity Including the lava tunnel caves and we were particularly impressed iby the friendliness of the people. I lost a fountain pen somewhere en route and went into one of your -stores on the main street to get a cheap bau point 10 serve un til I returned home. I was lm-i pressed by the amount of time and effort the salesman made to find the kind I wanted. The time he spent was worth more than the :.-en but he appeared so eager to see Rat I got just wnat I wanted. A young woman at the post of fice who sold us some stamps gave us an envelope to put them in and seemed to be so Interested in seeing that we got some for postal cards, some for letters and some air mail stamps as we had asked for. We discovered that there, was an art in even selling postage stamps. We went Into one of the markets to get something and found il was not an item they carried but the manager came to our relief and told us where we could get the item. We followed his direction and found that it was a competing market. Mrs. Pope and I discussed the community and asked each other about it. Then wc got to the solution of it all. Unfamiliar except by name of the newspapers available In your community I inquired of a pleasant looking gentlemen which of two papers I saw on sale was the best in his opinion. He was very pleasant and best as I can quote his answer here it is: "They are both very good pa pers, sir. out nave you seen me Bend Bulletin? We have a splen did paper here in Bend that U very comprehensive and satlsfac-l tory. Here In Bend we. really pre fer our own paper." There wa the solution. The good people of Bend pull together. Ko wonder we liked the city so well and in talking about It afterward here In Southern Californin found friends who had been In Bend and had the same amnion that we had. We read the Bulletin thereafter and enjoyed it very much. We were glad we did not spend any time experimenting around with other papers to discover which one we liked best. Yours truly, James H.
