School Board Cuts Close
BUT REDUCTION IS GOOD BUSINESS
.
Prosperity In Headlines
Approval Given
Deep Slashing
DRASTIC cuts in budgets have be
come quite common piece of
news, but the S6 per cent slash an
nounced by the Klamath Union High
School board fairly takes the breath
away. That is reduction that IS reduc
tion. That is meeting the taxpayer all
the way.
As the situation stands, the taxpay
ers of the union district will be asked
to vote a voluntary levy of $33,054.36,
which is $18,165.54 under the tax of
last year and $11,760 under the budget
originally drawn up and published for
this year.
This ia what has happened to the
voluntary tax:
Last year $51,220.00
This year (first) 44,814.86
This year (final) .... 33,054.36
In other words, the budget board,
aware of the necessity for reduction,
originally cut the budget to a point
considered safe and reasonable, and
published that budget.
Then, feeling that still greater re
ductions were in keeping with the de
sires of the people, the board ham
mered down the figures again. If the
original cut was to the bone, the final
slice was mighty close to the marrow.
These newspapers, who are in full
sympathy with the taxpayer in his
plight, believe that this was the right
thing to do. They would have looked
askance at any tendency to do other
wise. They agree heartily with the
new taxpayers league when it votes
to voice its approval of the board's re
ductions. This general and deserved approval
assures the passing of the special tax,
now cut to the minimum of safety.
The necessity for voting a special tax
in Klamath Union High School dis
trict grows out of a situation unparal
leled in the state wherein Klamath
County High School was gradually
turned over to the newly formed union
high school district in 1926-27.
Klamath Union High School estab
lished, a part-year operating expense
to take care of the part-year operation
necessary in connection with the
change. The low base is, of course,
far inadequate, as later operations
were on a full-year basis and the
school grew rapidly in those first
years. Hence, the special tax has be
come virtually a routine matter in the
school operation.
The passage of that tax this year,
in view of the remarkable reductions
finally achieved by the board, would
seem a foregone conclusion.
Al Capone's bodyguard asked for
mercy on the charge that he carried a
loaded pistol into court during Al'i
trial. Maybe he just carried it as a
plaything a rattle. '
Financial Headline
Proclaim Optimism'
tfyHE depression is over" was the
enthusiastic remark of a visitor
as he tossed on the editorial desk the
front page of the business and industry
section of a San Francisco newspaper,
dated Saturday. "Take any heading on'
that page you want," he said.
Here they are:
"Wall Street Bulls Stage Brisk Rally."
"Bond Market Closes Higher in Every
Group."
"Pacific Public Service Net Profit
Gains."
"Grain Prices Climb After Early
Break."
"Six Hour Day Tried out Success
fully." "Bar Silver Hits Year's Peak at 34
Cents an Ounce."
"$250,000,000 Construction Is Under
Way."
"Lower Bill Rates Expanding Credit."
"Trade Reports More Optimistic."
"Oklahoma Oil Men Jubilant."
"Western Stocks Register Gains."
Those are the larger headlines, with
out a sour note among them. The
small headings on the page kept to the
same tone. No question about it it
fairly shouts with optimism.

A Grid Recruit
THIS writer knows this about Guy
Merrill's football game Sunday: it
was sufficiently sensational to generate
the maximum enthusiasm in at least one
member of the crowd, and the Klam
ath All-Stars had a first class inter
ference runner in the grandstand in
stead of on the field.
It happened as Otto Vitus was mak
ing one of those rip-roaring charges
that used to raise our hair back in col
lege days. As he came around the end
directly in front of us and cut in, the
Chemawa end and a back pressed in
on him.
Suddenly, we discovered ourselves in
the position of one of the defensive
tackjers, being nicely blocked out of
the picture. The gentleman on the
bleacher seat beside us, who had been
showing some evidences of real en
thusiasm and knowledge of the game,
was doing the blocking, and he was
doing it well. His eyes and thoughts
were apparently fastened on the field,
but his shoulder was against us, and
had we been a Chemawa enthusiast,
with a similar desire to make a mental
tackle of the charging Vitus, we would
have been well taken care of.
The whistle, of course, ended our
little encounter as well as the one on
the field, and brought sincere but un
necessary apologies. We liked the en
thusiasm thus Bhown, although we were
a bit apprehensive thereafter every
time a Chemawa ball carrier was
roughly tackled. And we know that
Coach Fred Flock of the All-Stars is
missing a bet in letting this first class
blocker sit in the grandstand.

What U It? What 1 It?'
Mary whispered, trying vainly to

"Hope tbey didn't hurt our car.

atreet."
Aa they cam out Into the atreet
there waa the sawnd of footsteps

pletely blocked at the upper end
by bis car, up-ended and lying on
Its aide. Jammed Into the other
aide, like a locomotive whose
cow-catcher has scooped up a
mass of debris, was a black

He pulled bla gun. but before
shotting, apparently thought of
the people, who came running
from all directions.
Mary atopped stock atill under
the shock of the realization that
came to her.
"Dirk! Dirk!" she acreamed
suddenly. That waa the car that
killed Eddie!"
Dirk stopped running a second,
long enough to stare at ber dumb
founded, then raced on. A weav
ing, unsteady figure was crawling
into view from under the tangle
of leatherette and canvasa that
was the top of hla car. He had
just gained hla feet and waa look

departed limousine when Dirk
reached him.
Mary aaw him wringing one

He broke off aa he aaw Mary's

"Hello, Kuy:her. I'm all right.

But there were explanations to
be given the big, breathless po
liceman first,
"What were yon tryln' to do,

block?" he accused, after Inspect

car. Bowen took his abnse with
out a word of self-defense. Mary
burned with Indignation, but

she rnnld have sworn waa a self
satisfied smile on hla fare,
"Ynp, you're right, officer. All

"Anybody aee the number o'

loudly. The curious crowd began
to babble all together, but no
body could give a connected atory.

But Dirk. Mary aald. with

Dirk went on, gently. "Tha

The use of oxygen la tha treat
ment ot disease began about
117, when the famous British
physiologist, Haldane, devised a
face mask which waa success
fully used In treating cases of
disturbance of the lung to war
gas poisoning.
Tbe harmfulnraa of a lack of
oxygen haa been demonstrated
by tbe symptoms of mouataln

turbance la tha breathing, nau
sea and vomiting, sllgbt fever,
fatigue delirium and finally col
lapse. It la found by examining the
blood of patlenta with pneumonia
that It contains at times a very
low amount of oxygen. If oxy
gen Is given to a patient with
pnetimoula, the amount of oxy
gen In tbe blood Is raised greatly
and the patlenta thereby breathe
more easily and have a better
opportunity to recover.
Tha use ot oxygea baa beea de
layed by the necessity for tbe
development of special appartua
with which 11 may be supplied to
those who need It. As an out
growth ot thla need there baa
been developed an oxygen tent
which ia placed over the patient
aa be I lee In bed. The gaa Is
supplied to the lent from an oxy
gen lank connected with a motor
and with suitable device for
cooling.
In pneumonia consolidation of
the lungs takes place and the air
aparea art filled with purulent
material. Therefore, It la diffi
cult for the person to get enough
oxygen. Thousands of case ot
pneumonia hava now been treated
by this method, and the results
