August 2, 1048 HERALD AND NEWS, KLAMATH FALLS. OREGON ?AGX TXXEB REVISIONS IN .LOCAL DEFENSE SET-UP MADE By QCOROE MYERS Chief ol Emergency Medical Services In rovlilntl llio local dufonso ct-up to conform with tho plan recently adopted by tho Oregon Ituto clvlllun dofenao council, some revision of tho emergency medical lervlcci wi iound necessary to mnko it dovetail mora effectively, Following is brief outlino of tho revisions tlmt hiivo been made: Personnel of ill flrat ld tcimi to consist of one trained nurto and four flrat aid asslatanls Qualified by the same atundurda of training an required In tho punt, and composed of the same mombori who hove aerved in the orliilnul U'umi. Each flrat aid toiun will be equipped with an ambulance and will bo uccompunlcd to an In cident by a roacuo squad which will function Independently. However, firat aid team and res cua aquad will coordinate with each other In their acpuroto dutlci. At tho iccne of un Incident the team will flrat contact tho incident officer in churgo for dl rcctlona. Tho trulned nurao will then diagnoso the condition of tho casuulllrs. Sho will super vlao treatment of thoao requir ing flrat aid and dlaputch them to a central hospital, flrat aid atallon or to their homes aa .found practical. lit cane additional help, sup plies or equipment 1 needed, alio will again contact the incident officer In charge and inform him of what Is required. Me in turn will communicato with and in form the control center what ad ditional services are needed. Instead of flrat aid teams working independently In their zones or sectors during an In cident or practlco aa In the past, all teams of a district will con gregate at a diatrlct headquart ers. There will be ten of these districts mapped In and adjacent to tho city, each with a common headquarters where all branches of dcfonie services will gather and work from under tho direc tions of the incident officer In charge who receives his instruc tions and acts as liaison officer )tor the commander at the con trol center. Mainly these are the revisions to bo mado in the medical serv ices branch of the local civilian defense organization. There aru no changes In the duties or functlonlngs of other personnel connected with medical serv ices. Church bells have been used In England for giving warning of national danger and peril since the 10th century. fa Jf 1 Manners By EARL WHITLOCK ' kt I was somewhat amused, the 'other day, to read a newspaper article by Emily Tost, tho arbi ter of all that is ladylike, in which sho de voted the space to telling tho girls on how to bo perfectly proper on their war Jobs in the war plants. It might be Interesting to sco how Emily herself would react If a group of boisterous workmen hollered "Yoo-hoo" at her, or yelled "Hi ya, bcautlfull How's about a lit tle dnto for tonight?" I am not sure that Emily could find the answer to that one without looking in the book. And I'd Jlko to know how well her faultless table manners would hold up in a crowded war-plant with a big welder's bulk jog ging her shoulder on one side and a husky riveter's peaked elbow threatening her eyesight on the other. It might be quite a strain on her etiquette. v Manners I don't mean man ner, that is a gracious thing born of the good' heart but manners, plural, are funny things, anyway and most folks don't need lessons in deport ment as much as they think they do. Some of thd best man nered people you'll ever meet are woodsmen, prospectors, nat uralists, men who live much alone. It is only in crowds that We catch tho hysteria of haste that encourages boorishness. Next Monday Mr. Whltlock of the Earl Whltlock Funeral Hofne will comment on Family Life. , r : . . , . : m July War Bond Roll of Honor Tho completed Roll of Honor In the July bond sale drive, con taining 136 numes of Klamath women who each sold $200 or more In bonds, was announced Monday by Judith Brown of the war savings department of the chamber of commerce.

THE CHALLENGE (Dedicated to the defenders of Wake Island) Beyond the red horizon Before the setting sun Some lifeless forms in uniform Are lying near their guns. The evening chill has found it still, Upon the Isle of Wake Those sightless eyes reflect the skies To make the Heavens quake. Their wounds have pained Their blood has drained To clot upon the sand The sea is red with yellow dead Too much they made their stand. Their hearts were glad; gave all they had. Their humor asked for more; They fought, they tried in gal- lant ptide To hold the coral shore. The last marine was not shot. clean. Before he died, he bet: "Beyond the red horizon the rising sun shall set." Pvt. Alfred "Pat" Linzi, Marine oversea. . Word has been received by Mr. and Mrs. George H.

F EXPENDITURES By The Associated Press WASHINGTON, Aug. 2 President Roosevelt's renewed request. for "stiff' Increases In taxes made in a review of the revised $105,869,000,000 budget for this fiscal year appeared likely today to be countered in congress with bi-partisan de mands for closer scrutiny of government spending. Senator Wherry (R-Neb.) told an interviewer he believed the huge financial problem ought to involve reduced government outlays as well as enactment of new taxes. Senator Taft (R-Ohlo) predict ed that congress will have trouble in finding additional revenue sources for the "truly stiff program of additional taxes, savings, or both" that Mr. Roosevelt said ought to be enacted. Taft said it seemed Impossible on the basis of figures compiled by the joint congressional com mittee on internal revenue to obtain more than about $3,000, 000,000 in direct new taxes. He said ' the committee's figures showed that the feedral govern ment will take $13,450,000,000 n taxes out of $21,400,000,000 in corporate profits in the pres ent calendar year. - The Ohioan said he doubted this tax total could be increased more than $1,000,000,000 at the outside, with about $2,000,000, 000 in new revenues obtained from individuals and from mis cellaneous sources, the adminis tration has been searching around for $12,000,000,000 ad ditional. Senator Walter F. George (D Ga.), chairman of the senate finance committee, said at his home in Vienna, Ga. yesterday he believed the upper limits of taxation would yield only five or six billions in hew taxes. He warned .that drastic increase in taxation rates might be ruinous to the middle classes, which he described as essential to any civilization. , BACK ON THE FARM NEW YORK, (ff) Solly Mish kln, former Yankee farmhand who has been playing semi-pro ball for the past six years, is the new manager of the Yanks' Pony League team at Wellsville, N. Y, " ' CONGRESS Ii DEMAND EWER Children's Mischievous Pranks Blamed on Parents Numerous complaints against mischievous pranks of young sters have been coming in to the county juvenile office this sum mer, and Harold Hendrlckson, juvenile officer, asks that par ents keep a more careful watch on their boys and girls. Just recently at Worden, four pigs were discovered, each of which had had an eye shot out, presumably with bb shot. Though definite proof has not yet been established, this is thought to have been the work of young boys in that community. Another complaint received the other day stated that some neighbor children had spattered the complaining persons' car, which was parked in their own driveway, with eggs. These are just two of many such items brought to the Juv enile court's attention.

Hendrlckson said Saturday that because In so many families both parents were working, chil dren were permitted to run at large, their folks having no knowledge of what they do dur ing the day. The Juvenile official suggested that if both parents must work, an attempt should be made to engage an adult to take charge of the household, place young sters in a private home or at least to make a more thorough check on the activities of their boys and girls during the day.
