FRANK JENKINS Editor : Today's Roundup l ' Br MALCOLM EPLEY BTAININQ medical and dental services In J Klamath Falls can't be done with the ease ! of peace times, and we have today a statistical ; picture of this situation wnicn 4 Is of Interest to every person I who may show up with a bad I tooth or some other bodily 111 f and that, unfortunately, takes ! In Just about everybody. Here Is what the war has ) done to our medical and dental '- services: !' i It has reduced the number of physicians and surgeons here v from 86 to 23. It has reduced the number of dentists from 19 to 11. There is now in the Klamath area 1 dentist to every 4000 population. The procurement board's wartime minimum is 1 dentist to every 1200, and the peace time average in the United States is 1 dentist to every 750. The Klamath area ratio on doctors is 1 to 1850 at the present time. The procurement - board's wartime minimum is 1 to 1500, and the peace-time average is 1 to 900. These figures, which we obtained from Joe Hicks, manager of the Klamath Medical Service Bureau, show a definite shortage in medical and dental services that is keeping our doctors and dentists under constant and heavy pressure. The situation is even more serious than indi cated by the figures, because the medical and , dental services here are called upon by a con , alderable number of people outside the popula tion area or M.uuu wnicn mi. his compilation. Don't Butterfly Around WHAT should be done about it? There's no hope of inducing any other doctors and i dentists to come here, in view of the demand , for such services in the armed forces and the similar situation which exists in most other communities. Our only hope is to make the medical and dental services we have go as far around as possible, and that depends to a large -degree upon the people who may need and use these services. Here are some rules, suggested to us by our talk with Mr. Hicks: Keep fit, following the rules of good health meticulously. '... Avoid duplication of services; don't butterfly ' around from one doctor to another, without following out to comrjletion the olfln of action i y um jiaiubuuu m uumuigu wj, winded physician you see first - , If at all possible, call upon your doctor at his : office. A doctor can handle many office calls in the time it takes for one home call. Ja- 1- 111 A...ln-J If there is something definitely wrong, don't wait for it to become a night emergency. See the doctor at his office in the daytime. Keep your appointments with your doctor and your dentist. Failure to show up may cause a waste of. much. valuable time. These are simple suggestions, designed to - spread the benefits of the medical and dental services we have left. There will have to be a lot of spreading if they go around. Civil Service Problem THE situation which arose in the police de partment concerning the return of former Police Judge Leigh Ackerman to live civil service status and his place on the department force has been settled by action of the' civil service commission, acting on an opinion on the rules from City Attorney. Carnahan. Mr. Ackerman has been on leave of absence ' during the time he held the police judge's . office, first on appointment and later by elec tion. His leave expired this week and he went back on the force. The Question, raised by a protest from police force members, was whether Mr. Ackerman's leave for the long period was legitimate under the rules and whether he could now return to his old status. There seems to be no question but that Mr. Ackerman acted in good faith in accepting the leave, and the commission granted the leave in good faith. With this understanding before him, Mr. Ackerman did not run for re-election to political office last falL Good faith dictated restoration of his police department status. There came to light in this connection, how ever, ambiguities in the rules of the commis sion which indicate a need for some careful study and revision. The ease with which civil service rules can be made or changed, at a single meeting of the commission, is likely to lead to imperfect, confused or faulty legislation, wholly unintentional on the part of the com mission. The commissioners, we believe, are able and conscientious, and they recognize this problem. They are going to try to do some thing about It. ...''' Dog licenses may now be obtained. They are easier to get than haircuts and razor blades. Welcome to Hal Shade of the radio to the ranks of us commentators and columnists. We ' hope it proves to be a good idea here, and a good idea is always worth emulating. This is a good place to correct a mis-impression which may have been obtained by the public concerning the bond of Geneva Garland, deputy county clerk. At the time County Clerk Mae K. Short's bond was up for renewal, and notice served it would not be renewed, a similar notice was made concerning Mrs. Garland's bond with the same company. The reason given was that Mrs. Garland was bonded to Mrs. Short. New bonds for both Mrs. Short and Mrs. Garland have been provided. I A temportiT eomMaattae of th Brnlng Herald and tht Klamath Ncwi.

Multitudinous regulations and taxes Washington government, which the rich or business, have, for the hitting every individual. found a new political doctrine from this personal experience. He has not merely developed irritations, but he has come in contact with centralized controls, reforms, "new ways," and he has developed a revulsion against centralized government as an efficient his democracy.

Such new political sentiments always seek a dramatized outlet of expressions such as the racial problem in the south (it takes other forms In the east or west) or jokes about Mrs. Hoose velt and such comparatively less consequential forms. . True, the face problem is critical. A spark may touch it off. The south is prepared and will handle 'the problem in its own way, re gardless of advice or interference from other sections, although the results may be lamentable for all concerned. But myj point is that even this problem Is based upon personal experience with domestic help, high wages, liquor, and, therefore, beyond argument. Change of Attitude Must Come IT SEEMS to me the only way the government can reach and cure this, as well as the deeper problem, is by a careful government reorganization and a Washington reformation.

Leonard B. Sigle, formerly of this city where he served as pastor of the First Baptist church, will be in terested to learn he has resigned as pastor of the First Baptist church, Longview, Wash., and will assume the responsibilities of the mission executive of the Pacific coast under a Baptist missionary organization. The Rev. Sigle has served as field missionary throughout the northwest for the Baptist church. His new work will consist of directing the organization of new churches in cities on the coast. tration bureaus bring a more benevolent and efficient direc tion in regulating, rationing, drafting, taxing. First, there must come a change of attitude. The problem is well illustrated by Leon Henderson's Sunday night state ment, still maintaining that the people had not felt the "real pinch," of war, "had felt no pain," "had more money," etc. In this, he assumed, bs always, that the government w,as doing its part, but the people were having it easy. The people do not look at It that way, and no amount of speeches or organized publicity will make them abandon a con viction founded on their per sonal experience of direct con tact with centralized govern ment. Unless a mutual condition of confidence between government and people is established by the government taking the first step now (the appointment of Hend erson's successor is an excellent opportunity), the mutually un satisfactory condition will con tinue into serious consequence.
