Lester Cushman, vice presi dent of the Tulelake Irriga tion District, disputed claims that giving first priority to ag riculture in the Tulelake, Lower Klamath and Upper Klamath National Wildlife refuges would result in great er depredation of rice crops in California.

The legislation was designed to end a dispute going back some 20 years between farm ers and federal agencies seek ing to conserve wildfowl which use the lakes as a stop ping point in their migrations along the Pacific Flyway. Cushman said the proposed legislation would not solve the controversy but instead would cause "further con flicts" between federal agen cies and local governments in the basin. He charged that statements on crop depredation had been "completely misleading" in suggesting the birds would de scend on fields to the south. Distinct Benefit "The intensified irrigated agriculture that prevails in our district is not a detriment but rather a distinct benefit to waterfowl, because crop resi due provides abundant fall and spring feed," he said. Cushman was accompanied by Alvin Landis, an attorney, and Forrest Cooper, counsel for the district. Landis told the committee that the proposed legislation raised "serious legal and equitable problems" and would "seriously impair" the economy of the area without helping improve the water fowl habitat.

My snoring won't stop her. Carla M. - He should see a doctor. The noise would wake the dead. Gene M. - I thought snoring was mainly a matter for jokes, but now Carla nags me to death about doing something to end mine. Certainly it's not important enough to waste money on. It would be differ ent if I was sick or it had some serious effect on either of us. But her pestering is mainly because she has trouble sleep ing and won't look for the real cause. So she blancs my snores for waking her up. In stead she should take a long walk with me before retiring. She stays home, reads and falls asleep in a chair. Then, no wonder she awakens around 2 a.m. when I'm sleep ing soundly. She goes to sleep too early and with too many things on her mind. And if she wants to gel technical, she snores, too. But I don't mind. . Carla M. - Was ever a man so stubborn? We've been mar ried 11 years, and we live in a two-room apartment. If I had a soundproof cellcr, may be there'd be no problem. But Gene's snoring has grown worse in the past year and I can't even get him to admit that it's nosy enough to wake me up and prevent me from falling back to sleep. Once I get him to take my word for it that he sounds like leaky radiator at top pressure, maybe he'll see a doctor about what's blocking his breathing. Aside from the annoyance to me, he may have something wrong with his nose and it's getting worse. Maybe Gene is right that I'm sleeping more lightly and getting more sensitive. But that doesn't cure his snoring or his condition. I guess I'll have to make a tape recording for him to convince him. The Council: There are cer tain health problems, such as obesity and alcoholism, and now snoring, which used to be material for "good - naturcd" laughs. But it was the laugh ter of Byron's Don Juan who laughed in order not to weep. The topflight comics of today get their yocks via other sub jects than physical and men tal ailments. Naturally wo agree with Carla that Gene's snoring isn't funny As to whether it's cause for alarm, we may suggest that No-Win Policy Standing of Washington Baseball Club Affects National Economy Iff Gene invest the price of one office visit to his doctor to: (1) end Carta's nagging and (2) determine whether his snoring and mouth-breathing are due to a narrowing or blocked nasal passage. This latter can grovv worse, but also can be corrected by minor surgery. If the hisses and snorts arise from other causes, Carla is advised to quit nagging and to try to pinpoint the guilty sources. The good news is that most of them can be "dealt with." Since 23.000,000 Americans, one out of eight, are snorers. according to A.M. A. statistics; the activity has been the subject of much medical, psychological and commercial attention. Gene is too young to be snoring from lack of tissue tone, which assails the elderly offender. But his throat tis sues may be going slack from overwork, fatigue, obesity or general poor health. Or his nose and breathing structures may be interfered with by congestion due to allergies, colds, sinus disease. Each of the above-mentioned possibili ties has a self-evident treat ment. Does Gene snore only when sleeping on his back? Doctors have observed this to be true of many snorers. If so, there are Inexpensive gadgets avail able in sleep shops, which can keep him on his side - such as a ball attached to his pajama coat. If all else fails, Carla, you can always get earplugs. They won't eliminate the vibra tions, of course, but maybe you can learn to like the sound of somebody in the fam ily have a good night's sleep, even if it isn't you. By DICK WEST Washington -WPli- All sorts of theories and opinions are being offered these days to explain why the American economy isn't growing at a rate fast enough to please every body. Some y its be cause business has lost confi dence in the administration and the admin istration has lost confidence in Congress. Still others say it's because Congress has lost confidence in Billie Sol Estes. I have even heard it lid that it's because Peter Law- ford has lost confidence in Frank Sinatra. Apparently, however, it has not occurred to anyone, ex cept me, that it's because ev eryone has lost confidence in the Washington baseball team. Follow 'No Win Policy It must be obvious to even the most casual observer that the local club has been follow ing a "no win" policy and that its hitters have been "muz zled" at the plate. Perhaps you have heard those terms used in another context. That shows how in fluential baseball can be. Other cities have, of course, harbored chronic failures on the diamond. But only a per son living in the U. S. capital can appreciate how truly de pressing a ball club can be. I think the record will show that there hasn't been a pen nant here since Franklin Pierce was in office, or a first division finish since the ad ministration of Chester A. Ar thur. These years of frustration and despair are certain to have h a d a psychological impact, even on those who aren't base ball fans. And since this is the place where national policy is formed, the consequences are felt far beyond the ball yard. Affected by Game Suppose that a Treasury of ficial goes out to the park for a twi-night doubleheader. The next day he is spotted in the corridor by a couple of tour ists, who notice his pained expression. "Things must be worse than we thought," they tell each other. The word gets around and the next thing you know stocks have dropped another 10 points. Franklin D. Roosevelt sought to stimulate the econ omy in 1933 by telling the nation it has "nothing to fear but fear itself." It seems to me that a simi lar declaration by President Kennedy might help out in the present situation. He should go out to the stadium, stand resolutely on home plate and assert in ring ing tones that "you have noth ing to fear but the Yankees, Twins, Angels, Orioles, In dians, White Sox, Tigers, Red Sox and Athletics." City Police Check Two Car Collision A Medford man was in ured slightly as a result of a two-car collision about 9:27 a.m. Sunday at, Summit and Palm sis., according to Med ford city police.
