Scientists Continuing Search For Solution To Common Cold Washington (U.R) The cold season is with us again. It's time to winterize. Scientists are working on some vaccines but these won't be around for quite a while. An ex pert said today that plain old fashioned horse sense is still about the only weapon man has against his age-old enemy. The common cold is by all odds the most notorious member of the respiratory infection fam ily. But it has some equally un desirable relatives like grippe, influenza, bronchitis and virus pneumonia. Together, these diseases cause Americans more mass misery than any other illness. The aver age person gets six attacks a year. Children are particularly hard hit. And the cost in lost wages and production is more than two billion dollars annual ly. In spite of these discouraging facts. Dr. Norman B. McCul lough said there are many sim ple things people can do to avoid colds and to hold down the damage if they do get them. His prescription: Get plenty of rest, avoid chills, wear sensible clothing, and don't dope yourself with a lot of unnecessary drugs. McCullough knows what he's talking about. He is clinical di rector of the National Microbio logical Institute and an author ity on upper respiratory infec tions. He took issue in an interview Prineville Freight Terminal Burns Prineville (U.R) Fire that swept the Owens Freight Ter minal in Prineville yesterday did an estimated $75,000 to $100,000 damage before the flames were controlled. Firemen said several acety lene tanks stored in the building exploded, although no one was injured. Some truck tires were saved when firemen pulled them through windows with the aid of pike poles. Marion Owen, owner of the building, said his loss included a truck valued at $25,000. Court Records DISTRICT COURT Lloyd Lee Askins, no clearance lights, S20.

McCullough asserted that anti histamine drugs which have been in vogue in recent years don't do any good at all. They help in some kinds of allergy, he said, but have no effect on an honest-to-goodness case of cold or grippe. The same applies to chest rubs, bicarbonate of soda and similar home cures, McCullough said: They aren't any help and, in some cases, could be harmful. McCullough likewise warned against the indiscriminate use of antibiotics. He conceded penicil lin, for example, helps in some kinds of pneumonia and sinusitis when they are caused by bacteria. But he said antibiotics don't do any good in ordinary cases of cold, grippe and similar infec tions which are mostly caused by viruses. A Warning McCullough said nose drops help clear clogged nasal passage ways. But he warned they shouldn't be used for more than three days. After three days, he said, they inflame the mucous membranes and do more damage than good. In short, McCullough said the best way to beat the respiratory infections this winter is to pre vent them. And to do this, he recommended a few simple rules: 1. Avoid undue fatigue. Over exertion reduces resistance, al lowing latent viruses to flare into activity and cause trouble. 2. Avoid chills. It is particular ly important to avoid drafts while sleeping. Chills also re duce resistance. 3. Avoid close contact with others who have colds. 4. Avoid overheating. Wear lightweight underclothes, mod erate weight suit or dress and overcoats so the amount of cloth ing can be adjusted to keep the body's temperature more or less even. Don't overheat rooms. 5. Avoid excess dryness in your home. Humidity often is allowed to drop far too low in artificially heated houses of to day. Humidity should be some where between 40 and 60.

Farm Bureau Picks Harrisburg Man Salem (U.R) Gerald Deter ing, Harrisburg, Ore., last night was elected new president of the Oregon Farm Bureau Federa tion. He succeeds Ben Robinson of Imbler in the top post. Delegates also named Eber Howard, Milton, to be third vice president. First and second vice presidents are carryovers from last year and the posts will not be vacant until next year's con vention. At the closing session of its 24th annual convention here yes terday, the federation went on record in favor of enactment of a retail sales tax on the state level, provided the revenue is used for educational purposes and as a property tax offset. The sales tax resolution stipu lated that agriculture should be defined as manufacturing under the terms of the proposed law to prevent pyramiding taxation. The convention urged federa tion membership to actively support the property reapprais al program now underway in most Oregon counties.

Backstairs at the White House: General reaction among the folks in Gettysburg upon the President's arrival seems to be that while he was looking par ticularly well for a man who had just come through a heart attack, he was noticeably thin ner. Mrs. Eisenhower radiated hap piness. She didn't seem to stop smiling from the time she and the President left the White House Monday until they arriv ed at the farm. crowded press room back in I to keep life inside the Eisenhow Washington lacks live televis-1 er house, itself, as simple as pos ion cameras perched in front of sible. Just as Maj. Gen. Howard press secretary Jim Hagerty's ) McC. Snyder, the President's The President's arrival brought an estimated 100 re porters, photographers, radio and television personnel plus the necessary accompanying technicians to Gettysburg. On the first day there were four re porters here representing Lon don newspapers. The huge press room set up in a gymnasium in the Gettys burg hotel annex is about five times the size of the press room back at the White House. It also has something which the desk in case he cuts loose with a momentous announcement. Hagerty and the reporters turned out to be one of the big gest entertainment attractions since the circus last played Gettysburg. At one of Hagerty's first news conferences, a deter mined pack of Cub Scouts al most got through the main en trance of the auditorium and into the conference, itself. Thrwarted momentarily, the Scouts were prepared. They de toured to the other side of the building, up a fire escape and watched the proceeding through open windows where telephone men were busily installing new cables. Just to be on the safe side, the White House tested a heli copter landing not far from the President's farmhouse before Mr. Eisenhower arrived. The helicopter got in and out in good shape, and this form of transpor tation could be used if neces sary. But Hagerty doesn't think the need will arise. physicians, forecast before leav ing Denver, there are no resi dent extra nurses, medical at tendants or additional servants. Dolores Moaney, the wife of the President's valet, John, does the cooking. And Mrs. Eisen hower, as sne aiways does, is served by her maid, Mrs. Rose Wood.
