April 1. In Ore gon and throughout the nation, spurred by the knowledge that the disease is the nation's No. 2 killer and encouraged by the results of the society's educa tional and research programs over the past several years. Robert P. DeKoning of Port land, Oregon crusade chairman, has promised "the most intens ive campaign of fund-raising and public education" in the crusade's history, sparked by "volunteers in the thousands who are pledged to provide sci entists with the funds they need and dedicated to bringing can cer's seven danger signals to the attention of the public." DeKoning, director of research and corporate planning for Jan tzen. Inc.. said every effort will be made to reach each Oregon resident during the period of the crusade, either personally or by mail. He reminded, however, that some persons are sure to be missed. To these persons, he urged: "Send your contributions to Cancer, care of your local post office, and write the society's Oregon division in the Park Building, Portland, for educa tional literature, particularly the danger signals. You can't know too much about cancer, and knowledge of the danger signals might save yourself or a loved one." - oovernor Mark u. fcUtaeld. a longtime volunteer of the soci ety's Oregon division, has stat ed that the society's "continu ous program of research, educa tion and sen-ice has resulted in tremendous gains in the attack on the cancer scourge." "It is imperative," Hatfield said, "that the work of the so ciety be continued if this most dreaded disease is to be con quered for all time." DeKoning pointed out that more than $200,000 in crusade funds were at work in Oregon during the past year, being spent on research projects at hospitals, Oregon State univer sity and the University of Ore gon medical school. The total included $108,131 from the Amercian Cancer Society and $99,865 from the society's Ore gon division. April has been designated as cancer control month by the U. S. congress. summer, t low of smaller streams, heading in lower elevations, is expected to be slightly below average in volume this year. Statewide, the outlook for spring and summer water sup plies now ranges from "very good" in the western half of the state to "poor" in scattered east ern Oregon areas in Umatilla, j three years for Union, Baker. Malheur. Grant, record. Wheeler. Crook, Harney, and Lake counties. Carryover water supplies will "save the day" for many eastern Oregon irrigators.
