HEATH'S Medical Center PHARMACY 33 North Central Quotation by Johann Goethe (1749-1832) Copyright 1957 (10W1) the state wants to eet federal help for the controversial San Luis project, a Washington cor respondent said today. The warning came from George Coffey, who covers the nation's capital for United Press Pacific Division clients, at the fall meeting of the southern Cal ifornia United Press editors con ference (SCUPE). "The stage is set at the Wash ington level for swift approval of a federal contribution to the San Luis project," Coffee said. "If the north-south fight in Cali fornia is not settled fast, the climate on Capital Hill might change," he warned. Coffey said there is an "in creasing reluctance" in Wash ington to commit federal agen cies to major projects which might be handled by individual states. The newsman reported, how ever, that Rep. B. F. Sisk (D Calif.), author of a bill in the House to provide for federal participation, told him this week that "we'll be ready to roll in Washington as soon as the road- blacks in Sacramento are cleared." A bill to authorize California's part in the San Luis project bog ged down in the last legislature because of differences between northern and southern Californ ian lawmakers over water rights. Coffey, who has been tour ing California since congress ad journed earlier this year, told the editors that Sisk's bill had been endorsed by the Reclama tion Bureau and the Bureau of the Budget but added that "all this could change if the state does not show its willingness to cooperate." Coffey said he had learned that there was a "strong possi bility" that Gov. Goodwin J. Knight might call a special "wa ter session" of the legislature to run concurrent with the budg et session this year. The meeting was attended by approximately 80 editors of Un ited Press client newspapers in southern California and execu tives and news managers of Un ited Press in California. Miles Sines, managing editor of the Roof Repair Speeds After Hail Storm At Town Of Bly Bly fW Crews from four roofing companies have been hurrying repairs and reroofing jobs in the little southeastern Oregon community of Bly which was pelted by hail last Sunday afternoon. Special insurance adjuster Don Tullis, brought in from San Francisco this week by the Klamath Falls General Insur ance Adjustment bureau, has set up offices in the Sycan store in Bly to handle claims. Red Cross Helps .Otto Smith and Frances Wat kins of the Klamath county Red Cross disaster committee, spent Wednesday and Thursday at Bly, telephoning requests for supplies back to Klamath Falls, 50 miles to the west, and then distributing bedding and other needed items to the more urgent cases. The community spirit of shar ing was exemplified by one man who came to the Bly Red Cross headquarters to say his leaky roof was fixed and he could sleep six at his home during the emergency. Death And Wounding Accur in Hunt Mishap Bremerton (W Republi can National Chairman Meade Alcorn charged Sen. Warren G. Magnuson (D-Wash.) voted to send the Civil Rights Bill "to a gas-chamber death" in exchange for Hells Canyon support, in a speech prepared for a rally here Friday night. Alcorn's fund-raising talk be fore Kitsap County Republicans accused Magnuson of helping in an attempt to send the bill to Senator Eastland's Judiciary Committee in the recent session of the 85th Congress. "It was an obvious deal to gain support for the Hells Canyon public power bill from southern senators who theretofore had opposed the project," Alcorn said. Long Beach Independent Press Telegram, conducted the meet ing in the absence of SCUPE committee chairman Richard Pourade, editor of the San Die go Union.

S El ' jpJ II 1 r 1 1 Men's g & National NEW Books Available on Employing Persons With Handicaps During the week of Oct. 7-13, when special thought is given to employment of persons with physical handicaps, the Medford Public library has called atten tion to publications which may be of assistance in such projects. A pamphlet recently received, "Small Business Enterprises, for the Severely Handicapped," cata logs 44 reports of successful businesses carried on by persons who are homebound or at least handicapped. . The reported experiences, and information about methods and techniques which have been found helpful in establishing the handicapped in business projects are intended to serve as guide posts in evaluating needs and the potential success of business enterprises, Miss Helen Webster, librarian, noted. Another exhaustive list of vo cations open to those whose physical activities are limited will "be found in "Jobs for the Physically Handicapped," by Mrs. Louise Neuschutz. The au thor, long recognized as a leader in the work of providing voca tional activities for those with all types of handicaps, gives practical information on train ing required, ways of getting started, and,., the outlook for success. !- Fresh insight into the prob lems and attitudes of our handi capped friends can often be gained by reading biographies of persons suffering similar diffi culties. The book '"Out of My Darkness," in which William Sheppard tells of regaining his sight after 21 years of blindness, certainly gives the reader a bet ter understanding of the blind. So does "Cast Off the Darkness," the story of Peter Putnam's fight to a readjusted life following his attempted suicide and its re sulting blindness. ' A popular new account of a handicap joyfully overcome is Alan Marshall's "I Can Jump Puddles", a story rich in humor and adventure of a boy growing up half a century ago in the bush country of Australia, badly crippled by, infantile paralysis. Books in a similar vein, are "Now to Live Again", by Betsey Barton, "Out on a Limb", by Louise Baker, "Interrupted Mel ody", by Marjorie Lawrence, and "My Polio Past", by Noreen Linduska.

Rate Drop Blamed On Packing Houses Denver IP) Oregon witness es charged Saturday that mid west packing houses were re sponsible for lower freight rates on fresh meat and packing house products shipped' to the West Coast.
