-TEN HERALD AND NEWS Wednesday. Aug. 22. 1945 GHAMBEH V E L SCHOOL D STRESS VALUE Plans for a concerted drive to Bccuro maximum enrollment of school age persons who have been working temporarily are being whipped into shape by a special committee of the Klam ath county chamber of com merce under Chairman George Conner and Director A. M. Col lier. Purposes of the drive are to demonstrate to boys and girls now working that additional education will fit them for bet ter jobs than they would other wise be qualified to hold and to make openings in the labor mar ket for returning veterans. Support Asked Typical employers m various fields of business and Industry are being asked to make state ments in support ot tne anve. These statements will be pub lished in The Herald and News . at frequent intervals until school enrollment is completed. Talks will be made before service clubs and other organiza tions to interest employers and parents in the program. Volun teer speakers will carry the mes sage to as many listeners as possible. Conner Comments "Studies made by the educa tion committee of the U. S. chamber of commerce show that among wage and salary workers, the higher incomes generally are received by persons of high er education, uonner stated to day. "This is important to the individual worker himself, but is also important to the com munity as a whole. Per capita retail sales are highest in the states whose citizens have rcach- cd the highest educational .levels." The studies referred to by 1 Conner show that Oregon is , reasonably close to the top in , i the nation in both educational level and per tapita retail sales. I There is a danger that education , al levels may drop if a sDecial i effort is not made to return as" ; many students as possible to their interrupted studies. ; Building Plans .

Cosmopolitan Magazine Features Local Marine Barracks In July Issue "How the Navy Licked Mu- Mu" " is the title of an article in the latest issue of the Cos mopolitan apnearing on the news stands this month. The feature, written bv Albert Q. Maisel, describes the Marine Barracks installation at Klam ath Falls and tells how navy medics, under the direction of Captain Lowell T. Coggeshall, senior medical officer, think that they have beaten the dreaded filariasis Dicked up by the ma rines in tile South Pacific. Maisel also gives the storv nf how Klamath Falls was chosen for this unique instillation be cause of ideal climatic conditions and recreational facilities. The four main fears of the marines sent home from the Pacific after thev had contracted Mu-Mu, the native name for the disease, were the pain of the disease, the Dossibility thit thev would be disfigured or deformed, and the threats of impotence and sterility, inese ieprs were laid to rest by navy doctors. According to the article writ ten for the Cosmopolite:., at one time almost all of the crack Third Marine division was laid low by the strange illness and later every man who had spent more than a few weeks in Amer ican or British Samoa was suspected of being infected by filariasis. These men were accumulating at navy hospitals in the United States until, the Marine Barracks at Klamath Falls came into be ing. Since that time almost all of the men whose minds were filled with fears about the native disease have been transferred to duty at other marine posts and from nearly five thousand men sent out only nine have been re turned for treatment. The part played by the navy medical group and by Col. George O. Van Orden, former commanding officer at the bar racks, is told in the' story of "How the Navy Licked 'Mu Mu'." The local Marine Barracks was also described in an article ap pearing in the July issue of the navy magazine All Hands under the title "Good News on Fil ariasis."
