"Also, may I say to those who have not given their bit that there never could be a worthier cause. "And to those of you who are 111 and don't know what is your trouble go at once to a reliable doctor and find out for sure. "Believe me, folks, I know whereof I speak because I am a sufferer of cancer who EPLEY waited too long. After suffering with stomach trouble for several years I went through the Portland clinic and was told by the doctors there that I had cancer of the stomach. "They operated and removed three-fifths of my stomach and thought they had removed every bit of that terrible cancer. A year ago I again went through the clinic and the tests and X-rays showed there wasn't a sign of the cancer returning at that time. I was so very happy. "Then in January of this year I became ill and was told by my doctor that the cancer had become active again, and there wasn't anything that could be done for me. He said that it was only a matter of time until the tube into my stomach would be closed by the cancer. "I am still quite young and have everything to live for a kind, loving husband and four dear children who think the world of their little mom, and would do anything to make her happy. "Perhaps if we had plenty of money I could go to some doctor who could help me in some way give me a few more years to be happy but as it is we have only our little home and the wages my husband makes at day labor. "Again, may I say if you are ill find out at once what is wrong. Don't wait until too late. And please, everybody, give to the cancer fund to help our doctors find a cure for this terrible disease." Thus, an unsolicited appeal for a cause of vast importance to all mankind, and our sincere thanks to the writer of this letter. Klamath's cancer fund quota of some $2800 is a part of the community chest. Contributions to the cancer fund may be made immediately by sending the checks as follows: Cancer Fund, Community Chest, First National Bank or U. S. National Bank, Klamath Falls, Ore. Let's give now to this cause. Chamber Leadership ACTIVE, aggressive leadership for the Klam ath County chamber of commerce in the coming year is assured through the election of John Houston as president. The former . mayor, long active in civic affairs here, is full of ideas and vitality. He is a made-to-order chamber of commerce president. You'll be hearing a lot from the chamber of commerce in 1946-47. The chamber is ending a year of progress under the leadership of L. Orth Sisemore. Mr. Sisemore has given much of his time and ability to this job, which is not an easy one. The chamber's recent tremendous increase in membership is a tribute to his administration. Klamath's chamber is in a position to serve News Behind The News Br PAUL MALLON WASHINGTON, April 25 An AFL authority who knows thoroughly what la going on in the labor movement, has circulated privately a report that certain CIO unions are moving to cleanse themselves of communism. He tells of a secret meeting of the organization of utility workers of America recently, where the constitution is supposed to have been changed to provide expulsion of any member who joins the communist, nazl or fascist parties, and permanently prohibits them from holding of fice. There are other inner symptoms not yet ready to relate, that the left-wingers are awak ening to the methods and effects of communism. If they are, it would be a tremendously sig nificant event because they are the ones who can best do the job of cleansing the influences which have absorbed much of their activity. It is in the leftwlng labor movement where communism has had the greatest success, not in politics or at the polls, and a thorough cleansing might result in the change of many labor doctrines which have been unrealistic, if not self-destructive of labor's best interests. It may be a long job and require action, but at least the will to do the job seems to be de veloping where it will do the most good. Communism Catching On THERE are other indications that the coun try is catching on to the insidious methods of communism. A private letter sent out by one of the most reputable business advisory services in the country recently carried a thorough analysis of the peculiar communist technique which has never been fully under stood by the business people of the country. It outlines, for instance, the fact that communism is a kind of fanatacism, difficult for the average American mind to understand. It works with out principle or honor, using every method to attain its purposes I was going to say ideals, but it has no ideals. The ideal changes with whatever immediate objective is ahead and the objective is destruction, primarily, of- all other ideals. Examples were given in this letter to enable the employers better to combat the effects of insidious organization. This letter also tells how the communists work in the unions from a single person to influence another by every means at tlfeir command, even metaphysically or psychically to absorb the peoples' minds. One man on a union board of 12, this memo relates, sometimes is able to control the judg ment of as many as 12- ultimately after years of preying upon their likes and dislikes, at least on some issues. f New Methods Used MANY of the methods were new to me, but the most striking was that communists actually start red baiting schemes against them selves by one of their members, of whom they wish to rid themselves without letting anyone know except themselves. It seemed to me the ultimate abnigation of ail existence, to get your own people to advocate) destruction of yourself in order to win an immediate point which might become another point tomorrow, or an opposite point. The fact that these things now are getting around in the highest business and labor quarters, and also in even higher political quarters than I have suggested, indicates pro gress is being made of a great nature toward establishing realism necessary to good govern ment here and peace here and abroad. When the methods and tactics become generally known, they can be easily destroyed, and I think lack of understanding has been one of the prime deferents to our progress in recent years. SIDE GLANCES STATIC The yearly Shrine benefit for crippled children show will hit the air this year, coming to lis teners at 6:30 Saturday night over KFLW. Emceed by come dian Bob Hope, the all-star cast will include such notables as Dinah Shore, Spike Jones, Roy Rogers, and his horse Trigger, and Tom Harmon. Speech of the evening will be made by William B. Woodfield, imperial potentate of the Shrine. Benefits of the en tire show will go to the drive to help crippled children.

Bob McCarl and his mike will be at Rickys come 12:13 to award the prize and in terview the winner, so don't miss this show. Even the staff doesn't know yet who will be the win ner. Maybe McCarl does, but he's keeping it a dark secret until tomorrow. Another special show will be carried for Klamath listeners Saturday when John Baker of the U. S. department of agricul ture, will discuss the "Business Side of Farming." This is a part of the American Farmer show, from 10 to 10:30 on Saturday morning. There will be a dis cussion of fire hazards found on most farms, and the need for cleaning up and eliminating these hazards. Special emphasis will be laid on the part played by 4-H clubbers in this impor tant work. Participants in this will be Richard E.

Noble, chairman of the National Com mittee on Boys and Girls Club Work, along with Champion 4-H girl Patsy Woods, 16, of Apple ton, Wisconsin and Champion 4-H boy Eugene Kornis, 18, of Minnesota. Marsh Says State Needs Sales Tax PORTLAND, April 25 (IP) A warning against deficit fi nancing during the state's "growing pain" stage was made here by the speaker of the state house of repressntatives in a speech. Eugene E. Marsh, McMlnn ville, said the state faces higher financial demands for all pur poses, listing $12,000 needed in the next biennium for salary boosts, welfare needs and edu cational demands. "If we ever needed a sales tax, we need one right now," Marsh told the Multnomah County Republican club, but said he doubted Oregonians would approve such a tax for "many years to come." Progress Made On M.B. Plan Progress was reported from the Washington end today in the effort to make an education al center at the Klamath Falls Marine Barracks. Federal action toward turn ing the installation over' to the state for this purpose has been cleared to the naval affairs com mittee of the house, according to word received from Senator Guy Cordon by Capt. Lowell T. Coggeshall of the Barracks. The committee will meet about May 1 and is expected to declare the Barracks surplus, so that the war assets corpora tion may have authority to con clude a deal with the state. State board of higher educa tion officials have suggested that either a five-year lease or a longer-term arrangement would be satisfactory. Governor Earl Snell spoke vigorously in behalf of the Klamath project in an appear ance before the Clatsop post of the American Legion at Astoria this week. PORTLAND, April 25 (IP) Ole M. Lakness, 63, Portland, was fatally injured by a car as hf crnRKpH a Riihnrhan strnat early today. It was Portland's run tramc latanty this year.
