MAIL TRIBUNE, McdforJ, Ore.; Thursday. September 18, 1958 5 n j ALBERS 0" I A B I A l IV A I If we r.ivp" SHEETING in Atlantic City, N. J, United Steelworkers Union, is addressed by David J. McDonald, p r e s i d ent Higher wages will be sought in new contract. In the Days News By FRANK JENKINS World of the future" glimp ses: In Chicago last week, the American Chemical Society held its 134th meeting. High on the list of future possibili ties, the members of the so ciety were told, is a multiple vaccine against communicable diseases. That is to say: Instead of having to take a flock of shots to ward off this, that find the other you'll take ONLY ONE - which will do the whole job. i . . AT THE same session, Dr. Arthur Karler, of Berke ley, described a new labora tory machine that can sepa rate SALT and essential min erals from sea water. Out here in the West, no one needs to be told what that could mean. We all know. It could mean PLENTY OF WA TER for everybody. It could put an -end to the ruckus over the Colorado river's waters. It could free us from the fear of PROLONGED DROUTH. We've been pass ing through a brief period of abundant precipitation, but we mustn't forget the record of an 800-year-old tree cut in the Klamath country some years ago. Its growth rings tell the story of a 65-year-drouth back, in the 1700's. . What has happened once can happen again. NOTE, please, that Dr. Karl er's report asserts that not only salt but ESSENTIAL MINERALS can be extracted from sea water. What of that? V Well,, minerals in the land can be exhausted. The sea is a practically INEXHAUSTI BLE source of useful miner als. For countless millions of years the rains have been washing mineral substances out of the land and carrying them down to the sea, STOR ING them in the sea water. , When we learn to recover them from the sea water, the threat of shortages in the fu ture will vanish. TITIS REGARD algae present- ly as a pest. It clouds the waters of many lovely, mountain - rimmed lakes and makes them less pleasant for swimming and boating. Listen: A new strain of algae has been developed by the scien tists which may enable man to travel under water AND IN OUTER SPACE for un limited periods of time. The algae remove noxious carbon dioxide from the air man breathes and produce life-giving oxygen in its place. This new algae strain multi plies itself A THOUSAND TIMES IN A DAY as com pared with only eight times in a day in other types. THE scientists paint for us a ; picture of a world that in the future may be free of most of the ills and the pests and the griefs of the world of the past. BUT- This fascinating picture that is being revealed to us by the physical scientists will be rendered unattainable un less the scientists of the MIND can find a way to keep us from destroying ourselves by the 'quarrels and the bicker ings that LEAD TO WAR. Unfortunately, in this world of ours, the techniques of DISAGREEMENT seem to be proliferating more rapidly than the techniques of AGREEMENT. New York City has about 550 miles of developed water front and employs an estimat ed 250,000 persons in the ex port and import business. The Columbia river, the boundary between Washing ton and Oregon, is believed to carry more water to the sea than all the other Ameri can streams on the Pacific coast combined. i Pound fffllf Baa SUNSHINE KRISPY CRACKERS Lb.
