LEWIS A STANLEY. . - Slate Engineer Jess outlined reasons why 8 chamber of commerce body has an interest in preventing floods. He noted that S4 million worth of damage was caused by the December flood of 1955. Feel Lost Business men feel the loss in directly because there is less money available for purchases and directly because taxes are higher due to a smaller tax base, according to Jess. Annual loss frdm floods now averages about 5400,000, a 60 per cent increase over the last 10 years, it was pointed out. Floods also are to blame for the loss of valuable bottom land along the Rogue river, Jess said. Discussing casualties of the 1955 flood, Jess said it was "truly miraculous" no lives were lost. He commended local Civil Defense crews for evacuating be tween 200 and 300 people from inundated areas along the Rogue. 31 Local Floodi During the last 50 years there have been 31 local floods, Jess noted, of which five can be de scribed as severe. Three of the "severe" floods have occurred between 1953 and 1955, he said. Jess, indicated more floods can be expected because of a chang ing watershed, which is now more susceptible to floods. The flood control chairman pointed out his organization has been successful in uniting "di vergent" groups that have an interest in water. Among these, he said, are flood control, irriga tion and power groups. The point that has united these interests, according to Jess, is that the Rogue flood organ ization has resolved to support any flood control measure pro posed by an Army corps of en gineers report, scheduled for completion by June of 1958. Porter's Decision Jess added, however, that the decision' by Rep. Charles Porter (D.-Ore.) to immediately intro duce a Rogue basin flood -control bill may jeopardize the un animity between the "divergent" interests and his flood control organization. "Porter has agreed not to urge its passage, however, until the next session of Congress, after the Army Corps of Engineers report has been made public," Jess said. The Oregon repre sentative also has agreed to work closely with local flood control interests in formulating the bill, Jess added. A Bear Creek water shed protection and flood prevention program now being prepared by the Izaak Walton league and sponsored by the Rogue Soil conservation district is being supported by the Rogue flood control group, Jess said. " After-Prom Parly Plans Completed The Medford Lions club has announced completion of plans for the party to be held at the YMCA club after the Medford' H'gh school junior-senior prom Saturday night. The after-prom party will start immediately after the dance and will continue until the early hours of Sunday morn ing. AH facilities of the YMCA will be available to students who attend, according to Alva Perkins, chairman of the party. Swimming, games and t'ancing will be among the evening's ac tivities. All activities will be su pervised by members of the Li ons club. 4 A free breakfast is planned between 2 and 3 a.m. Louie Ruhl, food chairman, said the menu will include scrambled eggs, pancakes, sweet rolls, sau sages, milk, coffee and tomato juice. ( Committee members said any appropriate dress may be worn for the party. They recommend ed, however, that students change from formal wear to sports clothes.

Plante of Old Orchard Beach claims to be the youngest state legislator in the country at the age of 21. FALLING OF THE WOMB Many elderly women ask what to do for a bad prolapse of the womb. Some of them have already tried so-called pessaries but these haven't held well enough, and they have been irritating. Some of these women are greatly dis- Dr Alvarez IrcSScu De- cause the bladder has come down so far that it doesn't empty well, and the urine keeps getting infected. This brings fre quent urination and burning and getting up at night. Also, with the rolling down of the rectum it is hard to empty the bowels. I think usually a good surgeon can operate in such a way as to make a new pelvic floor that will hold the womb and the other organs up in place. I see little sense in putting off the operation year after year be cause so often the woman event ually has to have, it done, and then she wishes she had had it done earlier. Why Do We Prolong Suffering? A fine woman writes that she will burst if she' doesn't tell someone of the distress she feels over what has been done to her father-in-law, at the age ofo-84, has been lying for three weeks in a semi-coma. His mind is com pletely gone and he is having convulsions every day. For three years his mind had been deter iorating because of . hardening of the arteries within the skull. In spite of the fact that the poor fellow was in this terrible con dition, his physicians performed a prostatic operation. They seemed to feel obliged to do, all in their power to keep the man alive as long as they could. Ac cordingly, ihey gave him re peated blood transfusions, they fed him through" his veins, and they gave oxygen and every new drug that might keep the brainless body alive. As the lady says, he was a little more than a vegetable, try ing hard to get out of this world without more suffering. She thinks that for a while he was conscious enough to suffer and t want to die, and so he refused to take food. Now his daughter wants to know why doctors do this sort of thing. They are keeping three shifts of special nurses working around the clock in their effort to keep the old man alive for a few weeks longer. Why shouldn't they let him pass? I might add, why don't we doctors think more often of the financial ruin that this sort of thing brings on a family, and to no purpose? Why use up in a few months money that might keep the widow alive or send grandchildren through college? As my correspondent says, "Can't you please do something to change the code ol physicians so that, when an old man's mind CvJ Servce Job Openings Reported The civil service commission has announced examinations for government positions as power plant operator and inspector in various fields.

SP 2-4107 r is gone or, when, with cancer scattered through the body, there is nothing left for hun but suffering, why not let him (or her) pass in peace and dignity?" To Have Another Try A while ago a fine physician begged me to help him out of an embarrassing situation. He said his beloved brother had been lying for months in a hos pital, only partially conscious, completely blind, and largely paralyzed but apparently still able to suffer, He had a brain tumor of a cancerous type. Sur geons had taken out part of it but they could not get it all out, and the operation had dene no good. Now, the brain surgeons had come to the doctor and had said they were going to have an other try at it. The doctor did not want the operation, and he was sure that his sick brother, if he could have understood or talked, would also have said, "No, for goodness sake, leave me alone. But the surgeons made the doctor feel that it was to save money, that he could ill afford that he was denying his sick brother proper care. And this, in spite of the fact that the surgeons had to admit that no matter how successful the new operation, the man would not get back his sight or his intelligence, or any joy in life. At most they might pro long his life by six months. I said, "No, stand up for your rights and your brother's rights, and don't let him be operated on." A year later, when again I met the doctor, he thanked me from the bottom of his heart for my having helped him to refuse the operation. .His brother had died and it hadvbeen a blessed release. From past experience, I know that I will now get a number of bitter and perhaps nasty let ters for having written this. Good, kind, religious people will tell me that only God can say when a man should die. But this, it seems to me, is not a logical answer because, if we left these people ' alone, and let God de cide when they should die; if we didn't meddle by giving peni cillin and oxygen and cortisone and intravenous food, they would go much sooner and thus have much less suffering. Voluntary Health Insurance According to a report of the Health Information Foundation, about 110 million Americans, or almost 70 per cent of the popu lation, are now covered by some form of voluntary health insur ance. Some 94 million people have insurance for surgery; 58 million hava policies covering doctors' fees incurred when the patient is in a hospital, and 7 million are insured against ma jor medical expenses. Dr. Alvarez hopes his readers will understand that it would be impossible for him to answer requests for information or to attempt to diagnose by mail.
