The weather seems to fill up a
lot of space In the newspapers and
on the radio time these days. But
Good Old Klamath Falls has come
through with the mostest of the
bestest, as usual. Both newswlse
and weatherwise.
Isn't anyone in town, with the pos
sible exception of Ted Wright and
his family, who aren't enjoying our
mild winter. They were the ones
trapped In that snowstorm over
the weekend. But on the whole It's
been a pretty fair winter.
Which reminds me that Wright
called up yesterday, speaking
hoarsely through a nasty head
cold, and asked that we spread his
thanks to all those who helped him.
Which we are glad to do. It's
nice to know that you live In a
country where your neighbors tend
to trust you and want to help you
rather than distrust you and want
to stay only on their own side of
the fence.
Ted told me he was Just about
done-in when aid finally arrived In
the shape of the Wamplcrs. Plenty
of blisters on his feet to show for
the long hike, too.
Anyhow, we're glad It all turned
out as well as It did, and speaking
for Wright, thanks to one and all.
Spring Is in the air note: The
state game commission's fishing
bulletin Is still coming In. Discour
aging but still there. Seems that
few steelhead are being taken al
though the streams In the north
west area are the best. ,
Paul Patterson Is making his
pitch for the governor's chair In
the coming elections so of course
his agents get the word around as
to the kind of guy he is. Among
the listings we find a word of
praise for Paul Inserted over the
fact that modernization of Oregon
highways, especially highways 30
and 99, was instigated while he
was chairman of the highway com
mittee. Can It be hoped that If he
is reelected to the post of governor
he will do his all for good old 97.
If not, then I suggest that his pub
licity men get out two sheets, one
for cast of the mountains and one
for the 99 boys over in the valley.
All of which reminds me that
my spies inform me that the same
old gag Is being passed along to
unsuspecting tourists in Eugene
who stop and ask for directions to
the south. They nearly always get
the word that 68 Is Impassable and
that 99 is the only way to go. Won
der where they get that informa
tion?
ALONG NATURE'S TRAIL
By KEN McLEOD
Tlie number of people who are
beginning to become concerned
over tlie problem of food supply
for the future has been Increasing
year by year, especially so in the
great cities of our nation. The fear
has been carefully nurtured by
clever promoters In and out of our
federal government as it has been
the "siren song" that has easily
opened the coffers of the fed
eral government to fantastlo pro
jects of land development which
never could Justify themselves upon
the cold statistics of a financial
balance sheet. Is this good or is it
bad? The answer, of course, is
debatable and easn side possesses
its contingent of voluble supporters
to the result that Instead of look
ing at the problem as a basic fac
tor of normal development of our
country and developing a National
policy we are confronted by mass
propoganda, political trickery and
chicanery to the extent that it is
no wonder people in the great
cities believe that starvation is Just
around the corner.
,The people who must deal with
the pollution of our rivers are now
beginning to see this spector rising,
world populations are rising while
the amount of good land for raising
crops is getting smaller. It is only
natural, therefore, that people
must eventually turn to the waters
for an Increasing share of our food,
now and in the years to come. It
would seem to me that placing
emphasis upon the waters as a food
producing unit of our national
economy is getting the cart before
the horse. The first demand of our
people upon the waters is due to
the fact that the waters are natural
areas for human recreation, their
food producing possibilities are
secondary to that Important nation
al problem.
The Increasing population pres
sure upon our waters for recreation
is recognized, today we do not
have enough good fishing waters to
meet the demands of our growing
numbers and so the wildlife peo
ple are Just starting to push the
slogan of "fish for fun not for
food." Nevertheless, It is recog
nized that the waters yield a con
siderable addition to our food sup
ply and because of pollution of our
Inland and coastal waters we are
producing less food and reducing
the opportunities for recreation
when we are in actual need for
more.
One can obtain examples of this
loss of food supply in most every
section of the nation. Oyster beds
were once a prominent sight down
in San Francisco Bay when I was
a child. Shad have almost disap
peared from eastern rivers; a few
nre beginning to come back, thanks
Do pollution control. Perhaps this
(nay indicate that some day an
oyster industry may again return
to San Francisco Bay when pol
lution control has been effected,
meanwhile however, we see other
places around the nation where
shellfish beds are being closed
as menaces to health.
On the agricultural scene, there
is another angle in pollution ef
fecting our food supply for crops
irrigated by polluted water may
carry disease. Livestock cannot
safely drink from polluted streams.
In many ways, pollution is able
to take Its toll of our all impor
tant food supply.
This column has already pointed
out the fact that water is the most
used raw material in our factor
ies. It takes 366.000 gallons of water
to produce a ton of rayon yarn:
610,000 gallons for 1,000 yards of
woolen cloth; over 1,000,000 gal
lons for 1,000 barrels of aviation
gasoline. The steel industry alone
uses 13 billion gallons per day.
These figures do not tell the whole
story for they are merely Indi
cators of the demands to come
as Industry begins to expand. The
fastest growing new industries,
like the synthetics and chemicals
industries, are those which make
great demands on water. Experts
predict that by the year 1978 our in
dustries will need more than twice
as much water as they are using
today a total of some 215 billion
gallons per day.
Most of this water must cofne
from our rivers and lakes. Much of
it must be relatively pure; other
wise, Industry will have to spend too
much money to make the water
clean enough for use. Whenever
they can, factory owners build new
plants where there Is a good sup
ply of usable water. Some river
valleys In the nation are now al
most completely closed to further
growth because of pollution. Not
only does this do serious damage
to the valley itself; It Is also a
serious threat to our national pro
duction. Pollution destroys the value of
much river-bank and lake-shore
property. Many communities have
lost the income that comes from
tourist trade because their water
resources have been neglected
recreation is one of the nation's
biggest businesses. It goes to the
-In... ...kink nH -ff . aI-.-1
water.
Many waste mncteiials could be
used If Uiey were recovered and
treated instead of being dumped
into the waters to cause pollution.
The sludge that settles out of city
sewage make a fine fertilizer. The
industry has added a million dol
lars to Its yearly profit by recov
ering waste grain products. Ground
wood and fiber from pulp and
paper mills, bring real savings
when recovered from polluting our
waters.
SAM DAWSON
NEW YORK 11 Your pay
check this week will be trimmed
a little more to take care of your
old age. And your boss will have
to pay Uncle Sam a little more,
too, to that same end. If he has
a big payroll, It will be quite a
bite.
These two facts the Individual
paychecks are being cut and that
businesses are being tnxed more
Jor the social security program
are back of a battle shaping up In
Congress.
The issue: Should the social se
curity program continue to be run,
as a good Insurance company is,
by building up reserves for future
payments, or should it become a
pay-as-you-go plan with the tax
tailored to the amount actually be
ing paid out in old age pensions?
Social security last year took
1 Vt per cent of the paychecks of
some 47 million Americans, up to
t maximum of $54 each. Tlie boss
paid In taxes 1 ia per cent of the
payroll, up to a maximum of 864
lor each employe.
This week the amount withheld
from your check goes to two per
cent, with the maximum for the
year set at 872. The same holds
true for the boss' tax payment,
When social securitv started
back In 1937, It took in a total of
around 600 million dollars a year,
and paid out five million dollars
a year In old age and survivors
benefits.
This year receipts are estimated
to reach five billion dollars, and
payments, will top three billion dol
lars, with 2'i million persons draw
ing benefits.-
Since receipts have always top
ped payments, the social security
trust fund has risen steadily. This
year the kilty Is expected to reach
30 billion dollars. The funds are In
vested in U.8. government secur
ities. Tlie reserve fund has been built
up, as an insurance company's
funds are, to take care of the
years ahead when a much larger
number of persons will be drawing
a much larger total from It.
That Is the- reason why the
amount being withheld from your
paycheck Is going up by maximum-of
118 this year. It will give
the U.S. Treasury an additional
1 "4 billion dollars to spend this
year since the Treasury spends
uie casn laxcn in and gives Treas
ury securities lor It to the social
security fund.

Nice Legal County Seat
Transfer Made In Lincoln
County, Not Like 1868
By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Lincoln County's government of
ficially opened In Newport Monday.
A weekend shift from Toledo, the
old county seat, was completed and
most offices were in the remodeled
old high school gymnasium, a tem
porary site.
Lincoln became the tenth among
Oregon's 36 to change county seats.
It did it by a vote of the people,
a procedure which was scorned in
some of the early day shifts.
The earnest moonlight assistance
given in the transfer of county :
seats was in 1868. Baker County
then was moving its seat of gov
ernment from the mining camp of
Auburn to the town of Baker City,
six miles to the east. There was
fear that the change would not go
unopposed, so a crowd of Bukur
residents made an early morning
trip to Auburn, loaded the county
records in a wagon, and completed
the change by sun-up.
That was a relatively simple
procedure. Some changes, particu
larly in Union and Umatilla coun
ties, were complex affairs. And
iiie re were some that were inevi
table as time brought changes.
Until the Lincoln County change,
the most recent in Oregon was
removal of the Jackson County seat
from the pioneer town of Jackson
ville to Mcdtord. That was In ID 27,
leaving Jacksonville to Its present
role as chiefly a museum city.
At ono time Grants Pass was In
Jackson County but in 1885 it was
moved into Josephine County and
became county seat, to boot. The
original county seat was Keryby
ville, which had a variety of spell
ings such as Klrbyville and Kirbey
vllle. It also changed its name at
one time to Napoleon and finally
wound up as Kerby. That change
able town, 33 miles south of Grams
Pass, lost its courthouse in 1885
when the Legislature changed
county boundaries and provided
that the people should vote on a
county scat. The people chose the
newly annexed city of Grants Pass.
One of the most unusual trans
fers in Oregon county history was
that which gave Pendleton the
county seat. When Umatilla County
was formed, the Legislature pro
vided that Marshall Station should
be the site until an election gave
the people a voice. The election,
in 1864, gave Umatilla City also
known as Umatilla Landing the
victory and the following year the
records and oftices were moved
there. The Legislature of 1868 was
prevailed on to reopen the matter
and allow the people to decide
whether they liked Umatilla City
or would prefer some vague place
off to the east.
Vagueness won. And the county
court after thinking the matter
through, . decided that Pendleton
was the right spot. There wasn't
any Pendleton then, in 1869, except
in the mind of the county Judge,
P. W. Bailey. It turned out that
his house, on the Mosos Goodwin
farm, was his idea of a fine county
seat town named Pendleton.
So he whisked the records to his
house. Umatilla City, outraged,
sued and he had to take them back
until there was some place better
than a farm house to keep them.
In Jig time he and Goodwin built
a courthouse, moved the records
again, and that time made il
stick.
There was another case of rec
ords - grabbing when McMinnville
won out over Lafayette in YamM1.
County. But it, too, won at the
polls as well and took over legally
in 1889.
Tomorrow: A double reverse In
Union County,
JAMES MARLOW
WASHINGTON Wi President
Eisenhower, in his report to the
nation last night, claimed a
"strong and consistent policy has
been developed toward gaining
and retaining the initiative In for
eign alfalrs."
This echoed recent statements
by Secretary of State Dulles that
Russia now Is on the 'diplomatic
defensive" and the free world has
the "diplomatic and moral Initia
tive." That Elsenhower seized the In
itiative and put the Russians on
the defensive near the end of the
year Is Indisputable. There Is less
positive evidence to support a
claim the policy of initiative was
consistently successful.
When he said, right after taking
office, that the 7th Fleet off For
mosa would let Chiang Kai-shek
attack the Communist Chinese
mainland, that may have looked
like Initiative.
Nothing happened. Chiang, still
on Formosa, has not attacked the
mainland.
When Elsenhower challenged the
Soviets last April 16 to show by
deeds that they wanted peace, he
no doubt meant that to put the
Russians on the defensive by tell
ing them to put up or shut up.
This wait-and-see attitude wasn't
sutflclenl Initiative for Sir Win
ston Churchill, who suggested a
meeting between himself. Eisen
hower, French premier Lanlel and
Soviet Premier Mnlenkov.
Eisenhower declined, later set
tled for a meeting in Bermuda be
tween himself, Churchill and Lan
lel. Meanwhile, Dulles and the
French and British foreign min
isters invited Russian Foreign Min
ister Molotov to meet with them.
This put the Russians on the de
tensive. They stalled for months
in a windy exchange of notes, un
til they appeared as not wanting
to talk about peace.
Toward year s end they finally
agreed to meet Jan. 25. Only an
optimist expert, anything to come
of it, but at least the West can
lake credit for trying.
Eisenhower also embarrassed
the Russians last summer when
he shipped food to East Oermuns,
who dared reprisals to come for
It, thus affording plain evidence
that satellite peoples were not get
ting enough to eat.
That may have been a major
factor In Inducing the Russians to
announce they would put more ef
fort Into giving the satellites peo
ples a belter life.
One of the unknown chapters of
history is whelher agents of the
Eisenhower administration had a
hand in encouraging East German
workers to revolt against their
Communist masters last June.
This revolt also put the Russians
on the defensive by revealing the
discontent of people behind the
Iron Curtain. The administration
could claim initiative for this, If it
had had a part in the uprising. It
never said It did. '
In any event, the food shipments
exploited the situation to Western
advantage. .
Elsenhower in December truly
took Uie Initiative with a proposal
that Russia and the United States
talk on pooling some of their
atomic materials lor peaceful
uses. It was a brand new idea.
The Russians were on Uie spot.
Finally they replied with a weasel
worded reply that looked like an
acceptance but was so phrased
that they could stall their way out.
But, while Dulles worked tire
lessly In behalf of this country's
foreign affairs, this country appar
ently made no progress in ie
place considered critical as de
fense against Russia.
This was in Franco which, In
spite of Dulles' -proddings, still hud
not moved an inch closer to Join
ing the European Defense Com
mand. And without France there
can be no EDC.

NEW YORK (fl How would
you like to start the New Year off
with a free million-dollar idea?
Well, a fellow gave me one the
other day, and after examining it
irom all angles, I am now passing
It on to you and you are wel
come to it.
"Why doesn't somebody Invent
a new middle-aged pleasure?" This
man demanded. "It would be
worth a million dollars to him."
When I asked him what he
meant, he continued:
"A great amount of effort and
energy is spent thinking up gadgets
to keep the young happy or soften
the woes of the elderly. But no
body pays any attention to the middle-aged,
"Yet there are more middle
aged people than any other kind.
Why should we have to shift for
ourselves so much? Why doesn't
somebody exert a little brainpower
to provide us with some new form
of pleasure?
"Take me, for example. I'll ad
mit I'm middle-aged, and I am
bored. I ain in that critical period
when a man is too old to enjoy
playing post office and too young
to enjoy rheumatism. Why doesn't
somebody dream up a new kind
of pleasure that will enable us middle-aged
people to forget ourselves
and our problems?"
"Have you never tried bird
watching" I inquired. "The sight
of our little feathered friends at
work and play is often soothing to
the spirit."
"Look." he said, "let's be prac
tical. When you've seen one Eng
lish sparrow, you've seen 'em all.
Let the birds watch each other."
He made the same complaint
about baseball, television viewing,
canasta, and stamp collecting. He
was weary of sports and hobbies.
"No," he said, "what I want is
an absolutely new pleasure for a
middle-aged guy like myself
something that doesn't come in a
bottle or wrapped in cellophane,
something that doesn't come with
a guarantee to help me or hurt
me, but something I can get some
real fun out of."
"Any other qualifications?" I
asked.
"Well, yes," he said. "A new
pleasure for a middle-aged man
ought to be simple and Inexpen
sive. It ought to be something the
children can't steal from you as
soon as they reach their teens. It
OUZht tO be Something a man run

"That all" I Inquired.
"Yes. that's all." hi sniri "hut
is that too much to ask?"
Frankly, It didn't seem too much
to me. After all, why shouldn't a
miririlft-ncrpri man h sUahtoI a nam
pleasure that wouldn't bankrupt
mm, onng aown tne low on his
head, or that he would have to
divide with his wife and kids? 1

As I say, it's a million-dollar
idea if you can come up with a
real answer. But it's like most
other million-dollar ideas. They're
two bits a dozen unless vnn lennw

Even If I could discover a new

Problems Of Alcoholism
Fought By AA; Success
Ratio Held Encouraging
Tl
Editor's note This is the first
in a series of articles dealing
with the disease of alcoholism
and what Alcoholics Anonymous
is doing to combat it.)
By LYLE DOWNING
When that seedy, down-at-the-heels
fellow with the flushed face
and shaky hands sidles up to you
on the street and asks the price
of a meal or cup of coffee, even if
you know he Just wants a drink,
don t be too quick on the brush oil.
This unfortunate citizen may not
be Just an ordinary bum. He may
be a victim of the disease of
alcoholism which is reaping an
appalling harvest of wrecked men
and women.
Hundreds of persons who a few
years ago were respected mem
bers of their communities, now
drift aimlessly around the country
sleeping in flop houses and begging
on the streets. They all have one
thing in common worry about the
next drink.
Intensive research during the
past 10 years by the Yale Clinic
and Johns Hopkins University Hos
pital have convinced the country's
top medical authorities that thou
sands of drinkers in America have
on alcoholic allergy. Alcohol Df
lects these persons in the same
way sugar affects a diabetic.
These experts also have concluded
that Alcoholics Anonymous has the
best means of curing the disease.
Milton H. Maxwell, Washington
State College sociologist, told the
Northwest Scientific Assn., in Spo
kane last week that 3.9 per cent
of all adults in the United States
nre alcoholics. He added that Al
cholics Anonymous is now salvag
ing 75 per cent of those who turn
to that organization for help.
In this series of articles, we w'll
attempt to present as objectively
as possible facts concerning al
coholism and describe the work of
Alcoholics Anonymous. The organ
ization now, has 150,000 members in
the United States, all of whom
were once considered hopeless
drunks.
Two groups of Alcoholics Anony
mous have been operating in Klam
ath Falls for five years. The mem
bers stand ready to go to the aid
of any person who wants to quit
drinking.
At the outset, we want to make il
clear that Alcoholics Anonymous
does not advocate closing the
saloons or a return to the Volstead
days. AA has nothing to offer con
trolled or social drinkers or "Sat
urday night drunks." But it can
help persons who cannot control
their drinking.
The first step in AA requires a
person to admit he is powerless
over alcohol and his life has become
unmanageable.
This Is tough hurdle for anyone.
Who wants to admit complete de
feat? However, the case histories
of ihousands of AA membeis show
that they did not attain sobriety
until they admitted this fact. They
also discovered after entering AA
inai ouiy oy aamiiung aeicat in tne
battle with John Barleycorn were
they able to take other necessary
steps toward permanent sobriety.
Alcoholics Anonymous can be of lit
tle help to anyone unless this weak
ness Is admitted.
Another tailing that all alcoholics
have in common is to blame their
troubles on anything else but drink'
ing. They believe that the other fel'
low should quit drinking but they
can "handle" Uieir liquor. They
will make all sorts of excuses for
John Barleycorn and blame their
jitters and hangovers on 1 "some
thing I ate" or "too much smok
ing." Here is the case history of a
cured alcoholic which illustrates how
blind an afflicted person can be
to the effects of the disease.
Joe E. had been Ilred from two
good Jobs in quick succession. A
couple of mornings after the last
tiring, he was in a saloon drinking
up what was lelt of the final pay
check. Joe E. was drinking double
whiskys iand with each drink he
became more convinced that there
was some sinister motive behind
losing two jobs. To himself he
said: "They used whiskey for art
excuse. That wasn't it. I wonder
what it was?"
After a few more doubles, he
began mentally castigating the
bosses who fired him. Their names
were Johnson and Hanson.
By this time Joe E. was over
the "shakes" and his brain had
started to click. As he raised his
glass to down another hefty drink,
it suddenly dawned on htm that he
had the solution. As he finished
Ihe drink he mumbled: "Swedes
don't like me!"
(Next a further step in the AA
program?)
THE DOCTOR SAYS
By liDWI.V P. JORDAN, SI. D.
Over and over again a scientllic
or medical research worker makes
some new observation or draws a
tentative conclusion irom some
thing already known which may
have possibilities in the prevention
or treatment of disease. This may
be called progress.
All too often some enthusiastic
writer on medical subjects hears
of these scientific studies and
writes about them in some drama
tic way so that people often reach
the conclusion that the new pre
vention or treatment has been
thoroughly proved and is ready lor
use.
An example of what I mean Is
the excitement caused by work in
dicating a chemical substance
known as cholesterol, which seems
to have something to do with hard
ening'of the arteries, is contained
In higher proportion In the blood
of some people than In others. The
major question is whether a diet
in which most of the foods con
taining cholesterol are eliminated
or reduced will prevent or halt
hardening of the arteries.
It is known that some people
-46, ft
Bruce Bio$$ijjj
have more cholesterol in their
blood and that certain foods (eggs
and butter, for examplel, contain
a good deal of this substance. But,
It is not absolutely definite that
those with a lot of cholesterol In
the blood are more likely to have
deposits in their arteries which
lead to hardening, nor is it certain
that cutting down on the high-cholesterol
foods will reduce the
amount of this substance in the
blood.
