Allowable Culls
Increased in Three
Klamath Districts
Yreka-The allowable cut in
the Klamath National forest
will be increased from 170.8
million board feet to 183.4
million board feet, Forest Su
pervisor Charles A. Yates has
announced.
The increase has been ap
proved by the forest service's
office in Washington, D.C.
Yates said the net increase
reflects changes in the allow
a b 1 e cut for the Yreka,
Seiad, Goosenest and Salmon
river .working circles. New
allowable cuts in the admin
istrative units were calculat
ed after recent reinventories
and boundary changes.
The reinventory and other
work done for the new man
agement plan was under the
supervision of Forester John
S. Spencer Jr., who is now
assistant district ranger on
the Goosenest district,
Assist in Work
Assisting in the work were
Foresters Theodore V. Kubit
za, Marcus W. Petty, Richard
C. Nute and Everett R. Win
ter. The Yreka working circle's
allowable cut was increased
from 11.5 to 13.3 million
board feet, Yates said, be
cause part of the old Horse
creek working circle was
added to it. Another factor in
the increase is the successful
establishment of several thou
sands of acres of plantations
in the Haystack burn area.
The Seiad .working circle,
made up of the Seiad valley
and Horse creek circles, was
lowered from 25 million to 21
million board feet, partly be
cause of a reduction in acre
age in the Horse creek circle,
Yates said.
An increase to 36.1 million
board feet from 30 million
for the Salmon river working
circle is largely due to more
accurate inventory data, he
said. Actual realization of the
large cut is predicated on suc
cessful solution of remaining
road access problems.
The largest increase was in
the Goosenest working circle,
which combines the old Ball
mountain and Goosenest cir
cles, Yates noted. Allowable
cut rose from 13 million board
feet to 21.7 million.
Boundary changes were
made to give greater flexibil
ity in location of sale areas,
he said. The remaining three
working circles in the forest
have been reinventoried and
new allowable cuts probably
will be announced for the
Happy Camp, Somes Bar and
Scott river working circles
within the next 18 months.

A Book on the
Very Deaf Child
'Through the Barriers of
Deafness and Isolation," ed
ited by Dr. Boris V. Morkovin
and Lucelia
M. Moore
(Macmillan )
is a valuable
book on the
care of the de
cidedly deaf
child. It is
written by a
group of per
sons all ex-
Aivarei perts in the
handling of children who can
not hear, and it should be of
great value to all parents and
teachers of such children. Par
ents of deaf children will get
great comfort and encourage
ment out of the chapter by Dr.
James C. Marsters, a dentist
who, starting out in life very
deaf, has succeeded well in ev
ery one of the many activities
which he has taken up. Very
helpful is the appendix which
contains the names and ad
dresses of scores of Hearing
and Speech Clinics and exam
ining centers; also, residential
and day schools for deaf chil
dren, and Member Agencies of
the American Hearing Society
all over the country.
Is There a Diet for Gallstones?
I just saw a sweet lady of
60 whose life has been made
utterly miserable by a diagno
sis of a single gallstone float
ing around in a normal gall
bladder. What has upset her
has been that her kindly doc
tor has prescribed a very
strict diet, and she is nearly
going out of her mind, trying
to follow it to the letter. For
60 years, she has been heal
thy, she has had a perfect di
gestion, and so has always
been able to eat anything she
liked. She has never had any
abdominal pain and, certain
ly, never a gallstone colic. The
stone was discovered accident
ally when an x-ray film was
made of her abdomen.
I am sure that if many of
my old "stomach-specialist"
friends had found it, they
would have said, "You prob
ably have had that stone for
40 years, since your daughter
was born, so why get excited
about it now. It has never
bothered you, and the chances
are better than 50-50 that it
will never bother you, so why
not leave it alone and forget
about it?"
So far as I can remember,
in my many years, at Mayo's,
my old friends in the "stom
ach section" never gave a
diet for gallstones. I know I
never did, unless perhaps the
patient was having much in
digestion. I have always
known what the supposed
"gallstone diet is. It can be
found listed in most of the
books, and it is largely a diet

low in fat. Why low in fat?
Probably because bile helps
in the digestion of fats. But
in the presence of a gallstone
in a normally functioning
gallbladder there is no abnor
mality in the flow of bile into
the bowel.
Even when the gallbladder
is so diseased that it is not
functioning, the bile from the
liver still flows into the bow
el, and commonly the diges
tion of fats is perfect. I have
asked hundreds of people with
gallstones if they had any
trouble digesting fats, and all
but a few of them said "No."
In the cases of thousands of
these persons it seems silly to
give them any diet of any
kind because already they
have the digestion of an os
trich. The patient often wants
a diet that will dissolve the
stones, but there is none. Per
haps the doctor has a vague
idea that the diet will keep
more stones from forming, but
in many cases there is no
need for this because the sac
is so packed full of stones one
couldn't possibly get another
in!
As a life-long teacher of
medical students, it was my
job to tell them why we doc
tors advise certain treatments.
Neither I nor my colleagues
at Mayo's could ever explain1
why anyone should give a diet
for gallstones, especially when
the patient has a perfect digestion.

tions on gallstones and gall
bladder disease read Dr. Al
varez' booklet by that name.

Sending Psychotic Persons
For a Vacation on a Ranch
In the last year or two some
505 mentally disturbed pa
tients from the Texas State
Hospital were taken camping,
in groups of 60. They went to
a ranch, where they lived in
cabins. Attendants took care
of them, but there was no doc
tor or psychiatrist in resi
dence. The men and women
hiked about and fished. Each
group stayed for from two to
three weeks. No doors were
locked. No one attempted sui
cide, no one made trouble,
and only one patient tried to
run away. Men and women
were allowed to go about to
gether. Many of the patients were
much improved. They said
they had learned to "get
along with people," and many
felt they were so much better
they could go back into so
ciety and live normally. As
one camper said, "If here I
can get along with people
this well, I could do it back
home." Obviously, not every
psychotic person in a state
hospital can be taken care of
in a camp, but the fact that
505 could be cared for so
easily and successfully is re
markable. It may mark the be
ginning of a new trend in the
care of the mentally disturbed.

motion was passed to ask the
planning commission in what
kind of zone, if any, an auto
wrecking yard should be per
mitted. The council deferred a re
quest for a liquor license from
Stanley L. Roberts and Keith
Sherwood until the next meet
ing, pending recipt of recom
mendations on the applicants.
