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."
The Manchester Guardian's
Soviet expert Victor Zorza

Zhukov from the armed forces
which such a 'promotion' would
imply would deprive him of his

tive levers of power.

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

"The Kremlin leaders may be

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.

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.
