SIX MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE Monday, October 28, 1957 Khrus London TP Nikita S.Khrush chev was emerging today as un disputed master of the Soviet Union regardless of the future of Marshal Georgi K. Zhukov. There still was no official an nouncement from Moscow on the future of Zhukov who re signed his post as minister of defense. But the feeling was growing he had been down graded. Communist newspapers which praised Zhukov Saturday and predicted great things for him did an abrupt about face today and said the possibility of a major promotion appears to be totally discarded. The well-informed West Ger man non-Communist newspaper B.Z. said flatly Zhukov had been fired because he warned Khrushchev against his anti American policy. It said a num ber of Zhukov's close army friends also were fired. Pravda Silent Despite Moscow's silence the Communist organ Pravda failed even to mention Zhukov today diplomatic sources in London believed Khrushchev was final ly on top almost on the 40th anniversary of the Bolshevik revolution. The well-informed Times of London summed up the situa tion in an editorial today when it said: "In whatever post (if any) Marshaf Zhukov finds himself it seems it has been made de liberately clear it is with Khrushchev alone that power at the present resides."

Mayo Foundation Dr 7 P THE UTTLE STROKES Peopte want to know in what way are the little strokes dif ferent from the big strokes. As we all know, in a big stroke the common symp tom is a para lysis of the arm and leg on one side, and some times a diffi culty in talk ing. For a while the patient may Alvarez be unable to sa: more than a few words. When such a paralysis comes to an elderly man or woman suddenly we all know what the trouble is. Usually a small ar tery has either ruptured or plug ged up, either in the brain or occasionally in the neck. The little strokes are much more common and I suspect most of us have some of them as we grow older; they may cause us to slow up a bit or to lose the strength in our legs, or to lose memory, or to get irritable. Of ten, at the time of a little stroke, the person has either no symp toms, or he is a bit dizzy, or con fused, or woozy, or nauseated. Perhaps, one hand may be numb or clumsy for a little while. Rarely one sees a man who, for 15 minutes, is unable to talk. Later, he may complain of rub bery legs which do not carry him well; or he gets Parkinson's disease with the poker face and the shaking thumb and first fin ger. Many Com During Night Since many of the little strokes come during the night, the person may wake with a "head on him," as if he had been drinking the night before, or he may find that some of his mem ory is gone, or he may find he can't write as well as he did be fore, and the bank may send for him to give them a new signa ture for his checks. In the case of an older person this is al most a sure sign of a little stroke. For a week he may keep biting his tongue, or he may have a metallic taste in his mouth, or food may go down the wrong way so that he will often choke during a meal. With a little stroke a pain may shoot through his chest so that there is a ques tion as to whether he had a heart attack; or he may have a queer, burning pain shoot into his abdomen. On going to his office, the man may find that his brain no long er works well enough, he may keep making mistakes; or he may write words he did not in tend to write; or he may get irritable with the people about him, and may fight with his em ployees. At home, his wife may say that suddenly, with his diz zy spell, her dear husband and beau was gone. All that was left was a sort of stranger irritable, unreasonable and irascible. Sometimes he will cry, and all of his old enthusiasm and drive will be gone. Diagnosis Often Missed Often, because there are no paralyses, and no difficulty with speech, but only the big change in character, the correct diagnos is is not thought of. Fortunate ly, today, more and more doc tors are coming to recognize the little strokes. They are will ing to make the diagnosis when ever a man or woman past 50 suddenly shows a marked change in character. To show how re markable this change can be, one of my close friends an able business man of 50, who had always been a tremendous worker came to say that one morning he had had to push himself to work, and when he got to the office, he found he couldn't do anything; he couldn't even answer his mail. About a year before this, he had had a dizzy spell when he fell and injured himself, and a year before that, for a while, he had had a clumsy and partly paralyzed hand. After the last stroke, the man slowly petered out, taking about 22 years in which to do it. Gradually, the expression went out of his face; he became afraid to be alone; "I never knew a laundered towel could be so It's afl ia the tumble drying!

"The Kremlin leaders may be feeling their way to see if popu lar sentiment will permit down grading Zhukov." Informed sources in Moscow said it would be extremely diffi cult to hold a meeting of the 132-man Central Committee of the Communist Party on such short notice and that it was more likely the case would be brought up in the 15-man party Presidium of which Zhukov is a member. All the members are believed to be in Moscow now. Interest instead centered on the forthcoming massive cele- brations for the 40th anniver sady of the October revolution Nov. 7, and the meeting the day before of the Supreme par liament of the Soviet Union.

X r&s 3 31 O&C Allowable Timber Cut Up; Jackson Figure Remains Fixed By A. ROBERT SMITH Mail Tribune Correspondent Washington The Bureau of Land Management has increased the allowable cut on the O&C forest lands once again, moving it up to 676,200,000 board feet. This increased the allowable cut by 15,500,000 board feet from the pre vious ceil i n g A. Robt. Smith OI 0tU,7UU,UUU set a year ago. This was the seventh increase in the allow able cut for the timberland since the O&C act of 1937, re quiring sustained yield cutting, was enacted by Congress. The act originally allowed 500,000,000 board feet to be cut each year. New cruises after his right hand began to' shake; and he began to shove his feet slowly ahead. Fortunately, many men recov er so completely after a little stroke, or even a series of them, that they can keep at work. Grain Futures Drop Due To Good News On Weather, Crops Chicago (W Favorable weather and crop news brought declines to all grain futures on the Board of Trade last week. The market moved lower in the first two sessions but steadi ed later in the week. -Incfeased export helped bring some sup port to the market. Compared to last week's closes, wheat was lsa to 23A cents lower; corn was off 3A to 1; oats were unchanged to off IVi; rye was off 2V$ to 4Vi; soy beans were off 3V4 to '3; and lard was off 5 to 40 points. Increased Liquidation Increased liquidation and hedge selling closed futures low er in Monday's session. Demand was generally limited although an improvement in export busi ness brought some support to wheat. Favorable weather and crop news, slow domestic demand ?nd increased hedge selling in Tuesday's market sent the mar ket lower for the second straight day. July and September deliv eries in Chicago wheat set new lows for the year. Prices Generally Higher Prices moved generally higher in Wednesday's market although new crop July and September wheat contracts declined on favorable weather and "crop news. Demand for nearby wheat and corn reflected improved ex port sales and potential export business. Corn was steady Thursday but the rest of the grain moved downward. Unfavorable wet weather over parts of the Mid west brought buying in corn. Favorable crop news, slow do mestic demand and a lull in ex port business brought declines in the rest of the grains. Prices again became steady Friday although hedge selling and profit taking accounted for some selling in corn futures. Ac tion in wheat caused buying in rye futures. Profit taking erased early gains in soybeans. Grain futures at outside mar kets also moved lower during the week. World War II, plus new inven tory methods in recent years, have resulted , in subsequent in creases in the amount of timber BLM can place on the market each year. A further Increase may be announced in a month or so, BLM officials explained, when additional information is re ceived on recent inventories. The most recent increase is in the Columbia river master unit, which had its allowable cut in creased from 20,500,000 to 36,000,000. Other Unit Increases A breakdown of other master units prepared by BLM for Con gressman Charles O. Porter showed that the increases have been allowed in the following master units between 1955 and the present: Clackamas-Mollala, 11,100,000 to 18,000,000; Alsea - Rickereal, 34,000,000 to 51,000,000; Santi am river, 36,500,000 to 44,400, 000; Upper Willamette, 53,100, 000 to 61,100,000; Douglas, 89,400,000 to 106,300,000; South Coast, 144,400,000 to 160,100, 000. The following units remained fixed in their allowable cut: Siuslaw, 57,000,000; South Ump qua, 25,500,000; Josephine, 48,800,000; Jackson, 54,700,000; and Klamath, 13,200,000. Until the lumber market im proves and starts the rate of cutting back upward, the amount of cutting is not expected to come close to the new allow able cut. During the past fiscal year, BLM figures supplied to Congressman Porter show that O&C timber cutting dropped six per cent from 664,887,000 to 624,505,000 board feet. At the same time, BLM offered 13 per cent more timber for sale than in the previous year, or an addi tional 90,000,000 board feet. Drop in Receipts This drop in timber sales, low ering the average price from $37.64 to $30.35 per thousand board feet, resulted in an 18 per cent drop in timber receipts which go to the O&C counties. Timber revenue fell off from $25,025,991 in fiscal 195'6 to $18,952,272 in fiscal 1957. ' "Had all the timber offered for sale in fiscal 1957 been able to command the average price of the previous year our rev enues would have totaled $28, 581,407," according to Earl J. Thomas, assistant to the director of BLM. Figures supplied Porter by the U.S. Forest Service indicate a similar drop in prices being paid for national forest timber. Re gional Forester J. Herbert Stone reported to the congressman as follows: "Appraised and bid prices dur ing the current year have been somewhat lower than those in 1956. By study of general sale records which apply to South west Oregon, I believe that the average appraised and bid prices for 1957 sales would be approxi mately $21 per thousand and 523 per thousand respectively." Stone reported that "the av erage value of timber sold in the (4th congressional) district during 1956 was $29.33 per thousand board feet." He said 1956 sale records indicate that as of January 1, there was an estimated volume of 1,261,635 board feet of uncut national for est timber under contract in the 4th district. 258 Sale Bids Called During the first nine months of this year, said Stone, bids were called on 258 sales in Porter's district. Bids were re ceived on all but 14. The ap praised value of the timber on which no bids were received was $958,797. Estimated volume was 48,200,000 board feet. BLM pointed out that because of the drop in timber revenue, it will reduce access road build ing this year to $5,000,000 originally $6,000,000 was budg eted in order not to exceed the amount the O&C counties will be able to pay from their timber receipts. Even so, this will be more than has been spent in any one year for O&C road building. Appropriations for access roads for the past five years have been, $2,750,000, $2,000,000, $2,500,000, $4,260,000 and $4, 460,000. As of the end of the fiscal year, last June 30, BLM fig ured it had completed construc tion on 68.8 miles of road grad ed, 54.1 miles surfaced and 10 bridges. As of that date it had under construction 40.3 miles of grading, 46.7 miles surfacing and five bridges. BLM, through purchases, also added 6.5 miles of existing connecting roads to improve the expanding system of roads into previously inac cessible mature and over-ripe O&C timber. Transformer Bids Opened For Prosser Portland W) John M. King Company of Tacoma submitted low bid of $10,806 for construc tion of a 6000 kilovolt ampere transformer addition to the Prosser, Wash., substation, the Bonneville Power Administra tion said Saturday. BPA said the new transformer capacity "will help meet the rapidly growing power loads of the Benton county PUD. The Benton county REA also pro poses to take service from the Prosser substation in the near future. Other bidders included N. P. Nelson, Vancouver, Wash., $11, C65; Olson Electric Company, Vancouver, $11,209; The Bran don Company, Vancouver $11, 396; Harold Moffatt, Troutdale, $11,435; Witzig Construction Company, Corvallis, $11,692; Nichols Construction Company, Grandview, Wash., $12,514; Duke's Electric Company, Inc., Pasco, Wash., $14,358; Power City Electric Company, Spokane, Wash., $15,620, and Lindbrook Construction Company, Ed monds, Wash., $17,367.
