Today's Roundup
By MALCOLM EPLEV
A CRITICAL situation has arisen In the rela
tionships of Klamath county and the Sha.ita-Cascade-
Wonderland association.
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

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.

tremitie in general underdeveloped.
In this country, however, cretinism
is rare.
" 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
