PAGE FOURTEEN THE EVENING HERALD. KLAMATH FALLS, OREGON November 21, 1941 LUCE DISCUSSES Lew Wallace, Multnomah state senator and candidate for the democratic nomination for gov ernor, wag in Klamath Falls Fri day to apeak at a meeting of the aportsmen'a association at, the Willard hotel Friday night. Senator Wallace said he has not actively started his cam paign for the governorship nonv ' ination as yet, although he has completed his filing. Discussing the proposed spe cial session of the legislature, Senator Wallace said he would favor auch a session after the holidays if it could correct the tax situation in Multnomah county and at the same time , would assist In the solution of various up-state problems. Burdens of Multnomah home owners, Wallace said, have been greatly increased by the state tax commission's order increas ing levies on homes in that coun ty. A solution, he averred, could be found in the passage of a law classifying the property of the entire state, the benefits to be retroactive to January 1, 1842. - "The counties In the up-state also have their problems and un less there can be a well pre- fiucvi um uiuuKiu uui urogram taking care of up-state difficul ties as well as those of Multno mah county, it is very doubtful if a legislative session would meet with any substantial suc cess," said Wallace. Wallace came in on the morn ing train from Portland.

Aged Indian Woman Gives Boost for Red Cross Work From B. G. Courtright, super intendent of the Klamath Indian reservation, the Klamath chap ter of the American Bed Cross received the following letter: Klamath Agency, Oregon. "I overheard this conversation between an old grandmother. 86, and her granddaughter both Indians: 'I know. Mary. We can't all give even a dollar to the Red Cross. But I taught you how to knit. And look at all that yam going to waste I gave you! If you would only . . . I don t want to knit any sweater. I get all tangled up.' 'But you did pretty good on that little jacket for Johnny. You could if you tried.' But look at all the sweaters everybody in Chiloquin and Klamath Falls is knitting. Every body sending sweaters. Piles of them. What if I didn't make a sweater? Nobody would ever miss it. The Red Cross don't even know I'm alive.' 'Listen, Mary. That ain't the way to look at it. Look. Sup pose you don't make one little sweater. Suppose you don't. You know what?" 'What?' 'Some little baby just goes without, that's all. One little one, Mary. Just one goes with out. See? Somewhere a little child is going to be cold, maybe freeze. Because, Mary, you didn't make just one sweater.. Now, suppose you make a little sweat er. Thenj some little child somewhere you make warm; maybe you keep it alive even. One more! See, Mary?. One more child is warm because you make it warm. You don't make a sweaterone goes cold. . You make a sweater one more little child is warm.' A long pause. Mother.' Yes ... ?' 1 just never looked at it like CHICAGO, Nov. 21 (T) Phy sicians reported today new evi dence that ordinary vitamin C can help in tho medical treat ment of syphilis. The vitamin C, or ascorclc acid, may solve the problem of bad reactions in persons especi ally sensitive to tho anti-syphilis drugs derived from arsenic. This was reported in tho Jour nal of tho American Medical as sociation by Dr. Herman N. Bun- deson, president of tho Chicago board of health, and Drs. Hans S. S. Aran, Rcgiua S. Greene- baum, Chester J. Farmer and Arthur F. Abt, all of Chicago. The number of people sensi tive to the arsenic drugs is still considerable, the reactions rang. mg from mild upsets to death, The doctors found that the re actions apparently were duo to the formation of poisonous mat ter when the drugs were exposed to oxygen In tho blood. Even when in contact with air, solutions of the drugs turn brownish black as oxidation products are formed, but this oxidation was prevented for 48 hours when one part arsenic acid was added to three parts of the drug. The doctors, after patch tests on 115 patients and other stud ies, concluded that the vitamin C promises to assist in prevent ing reactions to these antl-syphil i drugs in the great majority of patients. m ll Cross WUtfr New Notes RED CROSS Red Cross kits are being pro duced by the local chapter, American Red Cross, for Christ mat distribution to the men in defense outposts as well as to nospiiauzea men or tho army and navy.
