Pro bation Officer Ronald Hewitt be lieves, and a perusal of the lt47 annual report of Uie Juvenile of fice's work bears out that theory. Only four youngsters, two boys and two girls, were In serious enough trouble during the year that they were committed to corrective institutions from Klamath county, Exports To Russ Vetoed By Chamber A ban on export to Russia of durable goods and materials that might be used for military purposes Is favored by a majority of the members of the Klamath County chamber of commerce who voted In a membership opinion poll com pleted Wednesday.

Travelers Lose Luggage An Alaska-to-San Francisco trip was rudely interrupted somewhere between Eugene and Klamath Falls early Wednesday when a motorist discovered his luggage had bounced out of the rear of his southbound sedan. John A. Miscovich of Fairbanks, Alaska, and his sister Olga, also of Fairbanks, discovered their loss at 11:30 this morning when they stopped at a service station and Miscovich noticed the trunk com partment had opened. Lost in the shuffle were two bags, one a light tan nylon covered bag with leather edges and covers, and the other a brown checkered lady's suitcase with glass fibre handles. The bags con' tained clothing, a small radio, vaL uable papers and personal articles. Miscovich said he planned to con tinue on to Chico, Calif., late today and asked anyone finding the bags to contact Oregon state police at the Klamath Falls office. Police were assisting Miscovich today. He has offered a reward. The travelers left Fairbanks by plane in November and planned a tour of California. Miscovich has been mining In the north. Spud Quarantine Revoked SALEM, Jan. 15 (VP) The 20- year-old quarantine against the Colorado potato beetle was revoked Wednesday by the state department of agriculture. The department said the Quaran tine, which named seven Eastern Oregon counties as infested areas, is no longer needed because the beetle has reached the limit of Its spread, because effective methods of control have been developed, and because potatoes now are handled commer cially so that there is little chance for spread through movement of potatoes. Magazine Sale Not DAV Sponsored Jack Benner, Klamath-Lake coun ties service officer for the Disabled Americans Veterans, said Wednes day that a magazine solicitation campaign under way in this area does not have the endorsement of the DAV. Benner said he had heard reports that solicitors claim the subscrip tions will benefit disabled veterans. He says he knows nothing of the validity of that claim, but does know that the effort does not have official approval of the DAV, which is a congresslonally-chartered or ganization. Camp Beale Bids j Due January 27th Sealed bids will be received until I p. m., Tuesday, January 27, at i Camp Beale, Marysvllle, Calif., on I various buildings at the camp.

Further Information may be ob tained from the war asset adminis tration, office of real property dis posal, building T-1004, Camp Beale, Marysvllle, Calif, white in 1948 the total was 13 six boys and seven girls. The boys all went to Woodburn training school, while in the major ity the girls were sent to privately operated Institutions for wayward girls. Serious offenses. In this break down, roughly mean those for which a felony charge would be Issued if the offenders were aged 18 or above. Petty offenses breaking windows, stealing milk bottles, truancy and the like coming to the notice of the Juvenile department were slightly more numerous In 1947 than the year previous, there being a total of 607 cases Involving 560 children investigated in 1946, 700 cases In volving 500 children In the year past-. The Juvenile department divides Its cases Into "official" and "un official," the former being general ly the more serious or aggravated offenses which result In a petition of delinquency being filed against the Juvenile involved. The "unofficial" cases generally are settled by a talk with the chil dren and their parents. During 1946 there were 89 such official cases handled by the de partment, while the number was re duced to 77 for 1947, Hewitt said. That In Itself shows a decline In the numerical frequency of serious offenses or crimes involving persons of less than 18 years of age In tills county. In addition to the "delinquency" bracket, the Juvenile office also works on a "dependency" system of classifying offenses, the difference between the two coming very close to the heart of the entire iuvenile problem. The "dependency" class roughly would contain those offenses or situations which the child Is not directly responsible for. and for which his parents or guardians are to blame. A case of a child being purposely encouraged to stay away from school or sent out on the streets to beg or steal would come under that heading. "Delinquency" category generally means a situation that the child Is directly responsible for. personally. Hewitt said that It was his opin ion that Klamath Falls and Its suburbs Is not any worse off In the matter of "Juvenile delinquency" than the average community of its population, and that in the matter of community attitude toward con trolling and improving the juvenile problem, it is better off than most.
