SEOUL, KOREA. Every movable, salvageable, usable scrap of
lumber Is utilized, in Korea, for projects sponsored by the Joint
efforts of The American-Korean Foundation and the Armed Forces
Assistance to Korea programs.
The "committee" above, including military, civilian, and canine
personnel, are shown inspecting a recently assembled lot of saN
vage lumber donated by AFAK to The American Korean Foun
dation to be used for 4-H Club structures, including Improved
hog pens and shelters.
For the farm youth of Korea, the 4-H Club program Is a way
of life,, and today much of Korea's food comes from stock and
seed, as well as technical training given young Koreans under
programs. Initiated and sponsored by the Foundation. . Just as
American G.I.'s in Korea have always helped Korean orphans,
they have also rendered voluntary and invaluable service to the
Foundation In Its 4-H Club activities.
Unlicensed Tank
Cleaners Said
Working Racket
State Health Officer Richard
II. Wilcox, M. D., reports that the
swindle of home owners by un
licensed septic tank cleaning op
erators is continuing this year
despite repeated warnings to the
public.
In one instance a woman from
Hood River paid almost $500 to
have her 500-gallon septic tank
pumped out. Don Pattern, chief
plumbing inspector, Oregon
State Board of Health, reports
that licensed pumpers in the
Portland area would charge be
tween $25 to $35 for pumping
the same size tank.
Patton suggests homeowners
observe the following pre
cautions: 1. Be cautious when anyone
offers to give your tank a free
inspection. Invariably these in
dividuals will look at the solids
at the top of the tank and tell
the homeowner, "It's full up!
We'll have to pump it right
away."
There is always a layer of
solids at the top of the tank,
Patton points out, and the usual
indication that a tank needs
pumping is not the layer of
solids at the top but whether or
not effluent has begun backing
up into the house. Whether or
not the tank requires pumping
further depends on the size of
the tunk and the amount of
water used by the household.
2. Ask to see the state license
and the county permit both of
which are required for septic
tank servicing operations. If in
doubt, call your local or county
health department.
3. Look at the side of the truck,
which by law must bear a sew
age pumper Identification label
on each side. These currently are
bright red with white lettering
stating they are issued by the
Oregon State Board of Health.
4. Have the operator tell you
the cost of the job In advance.
Patton reports that he has
seen families traveling around
the state in trucks rigged for
pumping septic tanks apparently
continuously on the move. Re
sponsible pumpers are licensed,
lump the extracted sewage in
approved treatment areas and
never hesitate to state their
rates.
On Sunday the Ed Gonty fam
ily met their son and daughter-in-law,
Mr. and Mrs. Ray Gonty,
and family of Renton, Wn., in
Yakima, Wn. The Senior Gontys
brought home two grandchild
ren, Russell and Ramona.
