Irked at what appeared to be a Jurisdictional invasion by the as sociation office, the community . advertising committee of the J- chamber of commerce and mem j bers of the Shasta-Cascade coun cil for Klamath county have sug gested that the clumber, at least, withdraw from - support of the i Shasta - Cascade association this vViVV year. As this is written chamber di rectors have not yet acted, prefer ring to confer with Lake county people first. Lake and Klamath EPLEY are the Oregon counties in the association, and there are six California counties. F.J- . The Jurisdictional question had to do with solici tation of members. The local group piannea a campaign for memberships, but discovered that the headquarters office in Bedding had written potential members asking them to Join up. a Little- Interest WHILE this is given as the immediate cause of the trouble, the real difficulty lies deeper than that. There has been a definite decline in interest in the Shasta-Cascade Wonderland associa tion here In recent years. It has been difficult to develop support for the organisation equal to that produced In some of the other counties, and this has led to somewhat strained feelings. Shasta-Cascade is primarily a tourist promotion organization, although it seeks to perform other functions as well and generally to help develop the area economically. In recent years, people of the Klamath area have shifted civic emphasis from tour ist: promotion to industrial and agricultural develop ment. People who always were skeptical about pushing the tourist promotion business have become more vocal. Hotels, auto camps, etc., have been doing a bang-up business without travel inducement. In view of this switch in emphasis. It follows that there would be a decline of Interest in an organiza tion that is generally regarded as a tourist promo tion set-up, such as Shasta-Cascade. Put Up Or Shut Up AND so, the chamber of commerce, the business groups that cater to tourist travel, and the community at large which certainly benefits in directly from tourist travel, come to the point where they must make up their minds about the Shasta Cascade Wonderland association. One thing is clear: We either ought to get out of the association, or we ought to go into it whole heartedly and enthusiastically. The Indifferent af filiation of recent years has not been good, either for our relations with our neighboring counties, or for the general purposes of the association. This writer Is a strong believer In friendly regional relationships. I think it is Important that we get together frequently with our neighbors in Southern Oregon and Northern California counties, so that we can know these people and work with them for common objectives. The Shasta-Cascade association covers the area where those relationships should exist. But the circumstance of our participation in it in recent years hasn't accomplished much along that line. If anything. Tor that reason and the others mentioned, it is a good thing to bring this issue to a head. In fairness to ourselves, our neighbors, and the association, we should get Into this organization all the way, or get out entirely. The Doctor Says Extracts Used On Thyroids ine uiyroia is a gland wnich lies at the front of the neck Just above the breast bone. When it is enlarged, the condition is spoken of as goiter. When it is not only enlarged but the cells of the gland are secreting ab normally, a disease is produced known as toxic goiter. The opposite condition, or insuf ficient secretion, is known as hypo thyroidism. In children it is called cretinism. This must be suspected in all children who are underweight at birth. Signs of slowed develop ment of the bones which can be dis covered by X-ray examination are also present CRETINISM RARE HERE Cretinous children grow slowly and their mental development is al so slow. The hair is likely to be thin and the skin dry. Teething is delay ed, the abdomen is usually swollen, the legs short and thick and the ex- By GEORGE E. SOKOLSKT THE ASSOCIATED PRESS states: "COLUMBUS. April 16 Paul Robeson, colored operatic singer, told a colored editor here yesterday it was none of his 'damn business' whether he was a communist. "In a news conference . . . Mr. Robeson gave tne reply to a question by Oeorge Lawrence, man aging editor of the Ohio State News, colored weekly here. "The last person in the world I would expect to ask that question.' Mr. Robeson added, 'would be a negro and a representative of the negro press. This is no longer a matter of communism; it's a matter of civil rights. Draw your own conclusions'." , Paul Robeson's error is that a man who projects himself into the public lire of this country can have no secrets. His affairs are the public's business. His hearers and readers, his supporters and op ponents have a right to know his background. That is one reason for the popularity of "Who's Who In America." It gives an index to the mind of the public figure by recounting his origin, his activities and his associations. a a a a Innocence Not One-Sided IN his authorized account of his life, Paul Robeson gives considerable data concerning his academic career, which Is notable: A.B. and honorary M.A., Rutgers: LL. B. Columbia: L.H.D. Hamilton. Moor house, Howard. The account also tells of his achieve ments on the stage and his tours and travels. But it says not one word of his politics to which, in recent years, he has devoted himself. Apparently, that he wishes to keep secret while he stands in the agitational limelight. Congressional files show him to be most active in Joining fellow-traveler organizations and in signing such petitions and sponsoring such causes as the communists project. Altogether hS name appears "4 times in this con nection. Whether he is or is not a member of the com munist party, he will not say. But he has been acting In public as though he were a member, and if this Is innocence, it is of a kind that Is wholly onesided. In a word, his innocence follows '. a pattern of lack of intelligence or hatred for American institutions. Certainly, no one with many degrees can be quite so Innocent. oo ne says tnat it is no one's damn business whether he Is or is not a communist. Yet, Taft, Dewey. Stassen. Martin and Vandenberg are willing to say tnat uiey are republicans, and Truman and thousands of others that they are democrats. They iino. no neea lor concealing their party affiliations. Why are so many ashamed or afraid to say whether uiey are or are not communists? The answer is. of course, simple: a Fifth Column A S communists are now unpopular, some of these I men and women are unwilling to make them wives iciauy unacceptaoie. Furthermore, there Is a growing acknowledgement of the Incontestable fact that the communists and their fellow-travelers constitute a fifth column for Soviet Russia In the United States. Each one of them is suspected of being a spy and a saboteur, a hidden enemy of this nation, inereiore. they seek to avoid being labeled i or wnat tney are. Secondly, those who say Out they are not com munists, and are, never know when the president and the attorney general will authorize J. Edgar Hoover to make public the vast data on the subject which the FBI has accumulated. The administra tion is still protecting the secrecy of the communists and their associates and the president is quarreling with congress over loyalty records, but the commu nist and their associates know that the day will come when Mr. Truman will fight communism in the United States as he fought it In Italy. The courage of George Lawrence of the "Ohio State News" Is to be lauded. He is In a class with Rabbi Benjamin Schults, of the American Jewish League Against Communism, who has risked per sonal attack in this fight. On the eve of a visit to Los Angeles with his anti-communist message. Rabbi Schultx discovered that a campaign had been or ganized to discredit him and to bring upon him unpopularity among his own people. That record will have to await the day when American official dom develops the courage to fight this cancer in American life domestically as well as abroad.

" In grownups insufficient thyroid secretion causes a condition called myxedema. This too is rather rare in this country and because it Is so rare, its victims frequently remain diagnostic puzzles for many years before the cause is determined. There are other signs of low thyroid activity in grownups. One of the most important means of diag nosis is the basal metabolism test which Is reduced to around SO or 40 below normal Successful treatment consists In supplying the patient with thyroid extracts obtained from animals. The response to the proper treatment Is remarkable. Symptoms disappear rather quickly. Even in children when treatment with thyroid ex tract is begun early, growth and de velopment can be re-established. NOTE: Dr. Jordan is unable to answer individual questions from readers. However, each day he will answer one of the most frequently asked questions in his column. THE DOCTOR ANSWERS QUESTION: What ointment is recommended for psoriasis? ANSWER: There is no single oint ment for this skin disease. It Is fre quently necessary to try more than one preparation on the skin and perhaps Internally.

If allowed to continue, would leave them oeu iu a prey.'' A prey of what? Well, very obviously to communist uKKreaauin. which almost Inevitnnly would turn the cold war Into a hoi one.

The greatest dniucrr of war Isn't that any power would deliberately precipitate It. Rather It lies In the chance that some nation, or group. might Inadvertently do something. I through rashness or stupidity, which would set the world aflame again. I believe that represents the con- j census of close observers. Indred j none other than Onrral Elsenhower subscribed to this view in a press : conference. He was asked whether i he thought the United States was I closer to war with Russia than a year ago. and replied thnt "No great country. Including Russia, would de liberately provoke War at this time " He said war pavsiuly could be start ed by "some stupid act or a deadlock of some kind." In which neilher side could retrest.

There have been plenty ol flashes of fire between the Russians and the western allies In Oermany and Austria recently, but caution on both sides has prevented difficult situations from getting out of hand One big threat of trouble lies in the fact that the present relative calm In Europe Is merely a lull in the communist world revolution. Of course there also are danger xita in the Orient, too. However.
