The Build the Basin program on
Industrial development Monday
night was- excellent. It didn't put
any additional plants on Klamath
cites nor did it tell the community
Just exactly what to do to achieve
that end. That's not the purpose of
these programs.
The purpose, as moderator Bud
f Chandler stated, Is exploratory.
The purpose is to arm the indi
viduals, who have the interest to
listen in, with some down to earth
tacts on the subjects discussed.
Further, It has the purpose of
bringing to light all possible In
formation that "ain't so," and put
ting it in its proper place as mis
information. The Monday night program had
a good panel. These men generally
were hard headed and well in
formed. They came through with
the answers as best they could
without undue harangue or beating
around the bush.
Briefly, here are some Impres
sions that we listeners probably
will retain.-
Industrial development can be
cumulated by a community hav
ing a large. Immediate consumers
market. We don't have that; so
let's write it off and forget it.
Industrial growth can be stimu
lated by a community having im
mediately accessable Taw mater
ials, plus conditions favorable for
processing these raw materials
into usable products, plus having
economical and adequate transpor
tation facilities to large consumer
markets. These we have, within
some limitations, so we can expect
further industrial development
along the lines we now have.
Another kind of industrial de
velopment can come in the dis
tributive lines. This depends on
geographical location, plus trans
portation facilities. One of the pan
el members, George Davis, who
probably is best informed on dis
tribution and transportation of any
man in these parts, made a flat
statement.
He said that distribution to the
entire Pacific coast can be made
' more economically from Klamath
Falls than from any other point.
He further pointed out that there
is no natural limitation to growth
of distributive business, such as
from availability of natural re
sources. We can expect further
growth along these lines.
'It was Dick Henzel, the farmer
en the panel, who pointed out that
two thirds of Klamath county is
federally owned. All taxes have to
be raised from the remaining one
For a nation as rich as we are
In inventive genius and for one
which has wrought vast changes
through the years in the mother
tongue, English, it does seem odd
that no one can dream up a couple
of new words to identify, generi
cally, the married woman and her
t sister, the unmarried one.
A large body of females would
be very happy indeed if It be
came possible to discard or at
least put in mothballs such meth
ods of identification as"'housewife"
"spinster" or "bachelor girL"
Actually, there's nothing the mat
ter with 'housewife," except that
it has such a dreary, dull con
notation. You can argue all you
want that keeping a home and fam
ily together is woman's proudest
occupation, -but you'll still find
' women, on occasions when they
must identify themselves occupation-wise,
muttering apologetically,
"Oh, I'm Just a housewife."
Husbands, even when they are
stay-at-homes, never lie themselves
into the house in that way. They
always say "clerk," "lawyer." or
"mechanic," and there are always
those wonderful evasions of "re
tired," "philatelist," horticultur
ist,' or "ship-model-maker," if a
man has only a hobby to depend
on.
The antl- "housewife" contingent
have tried to do something with
the word "home-maker" which Is
all right, but lacks softness and
cosiness, evoking images of a
trained, crisp professional who runs
a household in a rather executive
fashion.
"Bachelor girl" is a good at
tempt to Identify the young, un
married woman, but It certainly
has a bit of free-wheeling air about
it and sounds a little too inde
pendent. "Spinster," alas, started out as
a good, one-word mate for 'bach
elor." But it's been ruined by pop
.Mar usage, and now it's an un
pleasant word. When you call an
unmarried woman a spinster, boy,
smile. It means to most of us an
over-age, sharp-featured, sharp
' tongued female meanie. .
The word "bachelor," however,
has come through the years un
scathed. It still means only one
thing: an unmarried male (al
though the dictionary avers that
its fourth of fifth meaning is "the
crappie or calico bass" which prob
ably is a species of fish). You can
. do all sorts of things with a word
like bachelor there are persnic
kety, fussy old ones, gay ones and
eligible ones. But when you say
spinster, the picture Is already
drawn.
Obviously, a new synonym is In
order. Mary Sanford Taylor of
has given this subject more thought

third. We need industrial develop
ment to help pay the taxes.
The Weyerhaeuser hardboard
plant -was not mentioned in this
panel discussion, but when that
plant Is completed, Weyerhaeuser
will ante in on taxes that much
more.
Another Dossibilitv of greatly add'
ing to the tax rolls Is in the pro
posal of the California Oregon Pow
er company for a $60 million hydro
electric expansion in the Klamath
canyon.
A $60 million plant expansion
program Is industrial development
with a capital u.
It was Farmer Kernel again who
put his finger on the real point
of controversy over Copco's filing
for the start of this development.
The Klamath Indians have the
first of all r Urht to the water that
flows through their lands, based on
the treaty that was ratified in the
60s.
The 200.000 acres of land within
the present Klamath Reclamation
project have next right to the wa
ter, based on the reclamation act
of 1905.
Copco proposes to get the next
right to the water, what's avail
able after use by the Indians and
the 200.000 acres is satisfied. (Cop
co s present contract expires in IS
years.)
The amount of water filed for
by Copco is not Important.
The proposal was for a plant
that would be capable of handling
a maximum of 2500 second feet.
The operation would be to hold
back water tor 12 hours and then
run the accumulation plus the
stream flow through two turbines
for 12 hours. This is what Copco
is doing farther down the river
now.
What Is Important, and this was
Kernel's point, is who comes next
after the Indians and the 200,000
acres?
Copco said that it should come
next (it is next now); that its de
velopment would be more impor
tant to Klamath than other possible
water use on the land.
Henzel estimated that another
25.000 acres of Klamath county
land could be irrigated to advan
tage. He suggested that the power
company's filing could be amended
to give it the right to use water
after this additional use for irri
gation. u an agreement could be reached
on some such compromise it would
give us important industrial de
velopment. More tmnortant. It
wouid tie down our water rights
for use here at home.

ment: oacnei.
RESEARCH
I did a little research and find
that the only previous use of the
word "bachel" is for a Greek
measure a weight in the neigh
borhood of a bushel. Personally,
I think it has a pretty sound and
might do. I suggest, however, that
she put a little extra feminine
touch to the spelling: bachelle.
Developing new words in this
manner obviously Is a matter for
considerable debate and discus
sion. As a matter of fact. I am
seriously considering launching a
contest for two new words to re
place "housewife" and "spinster"
(or "bachelor girl").
To the winner of the first. I will
sward one slightly used subpoena
for Jury service (petit, not grand).
The winner of the spinster contest
will receive an introduction to a
fussy, ineligible bachelor.
At a later date, we will get on
with the campaign against calling
any woman who goes to business
a 'career girl." In fact, we may
even campaign against calling any
woman up to age 60, a girl '
or worse, a "gal."

EDITORS Note: This Is the
seventh of It stories explaining
how to make out your 1951 In
come tax return.
WASHTNOON Wl Several mil
lion self-employed people for the
first time will pay a Social Security
tax when, before midnight of
March 15. they fUe their 19S1 in
come tax return.
When they file that return they
must pay their Social Security tax.
plus any income tx they owe.
Their Social Security tax Is
based on their net earnings total
income minus business deductions
from self-employment.
They use two forms in making
their return:
1. On a separate form. Schedule
C. starting on line 25, they answer
questions about their self employ
ment Income to find their Social
Security tax.
2. Then on Form 1040 page 1.
line 5 under (A) they say what
their 1951 income tax is and under
(B) they show their Social Secur
ity tax. They add the two together
and pay what's owed.
Millions of self-employed people,
but not all. came under Social
Security coverage Jan. 1, 1951. as
a result of a change in the law bv
Congress late in 1950 to include
more people.
All though 1951 wage-earners
were paying a Social Security tax
on the first $3,600 of their nav. It
was regularly withheld from their
wages. The self-employed people
didn't have to pay any Social Se
curity tax last year.
.now, xnougn, the self-employed
must pay in a lump sum whatever
Social Security tax they owe for
ail 12 months of 1951. The tax on
them Is 2 "t per cent on the first
$3,600 of their net income.
But no one has to nav Social
Security tax on less than $400 of
self-employed income.
So wage-earners and self-em
ployed both pay the Social Secur
ity tax on their first $3,600. But
during 1951 some people were self
employed only part of the time.
The rest of the time they earned
wages from which the Social Se
curity tax was withheld.
What do they do now? If, as
wage-earners, they got $3,600 in
pay from which Social Security tax
WASHINGTON I Wilbur
Feeble, the average American citi
zen, took a few days off to see for
himself what really is going on in
this home base of Democracy.
He tells his first Impressions of
the nation's capital In the following
letter to his wife:
Dear Trellis Mae,
Well, honey, here I am In the
arsenal of politics.
You can quit worrying right now
about us being caught unprepared
by another big war. The first thing
I noticed was that the Pentagon
has an annex. That proves we must
be ready for any emergency.
There is a heartening air of vir
tue about Washington right now.
Billy Graham, the handsome
young evangelist, is sternly at
tacking sin at one end of the city,
and Congress Is giving it hell at
the other end.
No evil-doing can stand up under
this kind of cross-fire, and if there
is any corruption left here it must
have gone underground. They say
that even the "five percenters" are
so ashamed of themselves they
have reduced their rates to four-and-one-half
per cent.
I promised to give you the low
down the inside straight on what
is going on here. But the hardest
thing to pin down here Is a fact.
Pacts whisper in Washington, ru
mors shout.
All anybody seems to know for
sure is what he overhears. My
Idea of Washington right now is a
bunch of people standing in a circle
with their hands to their ears,
each trying to hear what the next
fellow is whispering. The trouble is
nobody seems to really know any
thing. The biggest whisper factories are
the cocktail parties, just like back
home. I went to one party. Here Is
a remark I overheard and you
can take it for what it is worth:
Wake Up
To More Comfort
Without Nagging Backache
Nee si tig backache, lota of pepandenenry,
headaches and dizzineti may be due to alow
down of kidney function. Doctor aay good
kidney function la very important to ffood
health. When some everyday condition, such
a atrest and atraln, causes this important
function toalow down, many folkaflufrernatc
iririff backache feel fninerable. Minor blad
der irritations due to cold or wrong diet may
cause getting up nights or frequent pannages.
Don't neglect your kidneys if these eondU
tlons bother you. Try Doan's Pilh a mild
diuretic. Used successfully by millions for
over 60 years. It's amazing how many limes

was withheld, they're paid up for
the year as wage-earners and don't
owe any tax for the Income earned
while self-employed, no matter
what their self-employed Income
was.
But then come split problems.
Jones earned $3,000 in wages and
$5,000 from self-employment. What
does he do?
Since no one pays the tax on
more than the first $3,t00 ot his
income. Jones subtracts his $3,000
in wages from $3,600 in self-employed
incomes, and finds he still
owes Social Security tax on $1,600
of self-employed Income. So he
pays il ' per cent tax on $1,600.
But, since there's no Social Se
curity tax on less than $400 of self
employed Income, a case like this
might arise:
Smith had $3,300 in wages, from
$300 in self-employed Income, giv
ing him a total income of $3,500.
Since his self-employed Income
was less than $400, he pays no tax
on that $300.
In his case, therefore, his Social
Security tax for 1951 was limited to
the tax withheld from his $3,300 in
wages.
But when Congress broadened the
Social Security Law. it still ex
cluded some people from its cov
erage. The following are not covered by
the law and so do not have to pay
a Social Security tax:
Public officials, railroad work
ers, ministers and priests, doctors,
lawyers, osteopaths, dentists, vet
erinarians, chiropractors, naturo
aths, otometrists, Christian Sci
ence practitioners, architects, cer
tified public accountants, account
ants registered or licensed as ac
countants under state or city laws,
full-time practicing public account
ants, funeral directors and profes
sional engineers.
Unless you're a real estate brok
er you can't include in your net
earnings, for the purpose of the
self-employment tax. any rentals
you receive from real estate. Nor
can you Include income derived
from the business of farming.
And. unless you're a dealer In
securities, you can not Include in
terest and dividends from securi
ties as self-employed income.
"President Truman ha nnslttve.
ly decided to run again. He fig
ured that' he couldn't swing the
nomination to Gov. Stevenson of
Illinois or anybody else but him-
self. Besides, he feels Talt will
get the Republican nomination, and
he thinks he can beat Taft."
The rest of the conversation at
the party was mostly gossip about
what government official would be
thrown out next. That is the most
popular guessing game In the cap
ital: "Who's on his way out?"
I told one fellow at the party
that kind of gossip was heartless,
and he said:
"No. You see, everybody In this
town is always on his way out.
It's just a matter of when. They
used to let a guy warm his seat for
a month or two before they started
screaming he was incompetent or
subversive. But now they start talk
ing about throwing him out before
he even arrives to take over bis
office." .
Then this man asked me If I
was looking for a post. When 1
started shuddering, he said:
"Well, If you ever do, I'll give
you a tip. The only sure way to
get a job in Washington Is to an
nounce you don't want it, and that
you double-dog-dare the Senate to
confirm you If you are appointed.
Well, you know senators. They
never take a dare."
Oh, yes. I forgot to tell you a
wave of dieting Is sweeping the
capital. Everybody is climbing on
a diet or just falling off one. A
government employe I met at
lunch explained why:
"It's election year," he said,
"and we don't want people saying
we are living off the fat of the
land."
I told him to go on and have an
other calorie us taxpayers aren't

to complete the count of 90 points.
"The opponents said it was not

melded all the cards in her hand
she would be out. because the
cards in the discard pile cannot be

she was not allowed to meld out
without a canasta.
"My partner and I maintain that

The play was perfectly legal and

As mors unci more people live
Into late mlddlo years and old
age, a condition known as angina
pectoris becomes mora common.
The meaning of this mrillrnl
term la simply pain In th chest,
but It la caused by an liisufflulent
amount of blood flowing to the
heart muscle, usually as a renult
of hardening ot tha arteries. These
blood vessels ale called the cor
onary arteries.
When the passageway through
these arteries has been anrlounly
narrowed and not enough blood
passes through them, the needs of
the heart muscle are not satNlled
mid it Is this blood lack which
causes pain.
The pain Is usually absent when
the patient is resting. It Is likely
to be noticed the first time when
the heart is pumping rapidly as
happens when exercising (climbing
stairs or running for the bus, for
example).
During such periods of extra
work, the heart needs larger quan
tities of blood than it does when
at rest. A person who has angina
pectoris must, therefore, learn how
much exercise can be taken with
out producing symptoms.
Besides the puln, the symptoms
often Include a feeling of anxiety,
shortness of breath, and cold clam
my sweating.
Many patients with angina, when
they learn how to live with their
hearts, have little or no discom
fort and are not cut oft from
most of life's pleasures.
Indeed, the outlook for patients
with angina is not so unfavorable
as was formerly believed. Some
live lor more than tfrnly-flvo
years after the onset of their first
symptoms, and the average) Is
probably between eight nnd ten
years.
In addition to the better out
look which is now recognized, the
management ol angina pectoris
has also Improved. The amount
and nature of exercise which enn
be tolerated can be more closely
calculated.
Also, there are several drugs,
which when given properly, usu
ally help the victim of angina even
though drugs do not cure the un
derlying cause which lies lu the
coronary arteries.
The symptoms of angina cer
tainly cannot be Ignored, but when
they do develop, It does not mean
that llle is almost over nr that
all pleasures are done with for
ever. A sensible but hopeful atti
tude Is Indicated.
