But there is another official one at Williamson River marking the spot where Phil .Sheridan and a survey party for the Pacific Railroad seeking a con necting route from the Sacramento Valley to the Columbia river passed In 1885. And over in Lake county we have a couple, one marking the Abert Rim, the signs near Valley Falls, and the other at Summer . Lake commemorating the second Fremont expedition of 1843, the trip which directed a good deal of im migrant travel into Oregon and what has previously been nothing but a rendezvous for trappers. And of course going down south we find the Captain Jack markers down the other siae of Stronghold plus a good many more as you follow the roads down into mission country, - : . , All, In all, we made out pretty well. : The fish and wildlife service has gotten out two new booklets lor those interested. One tells of the new conservation area in Ne vada, the Stillwater Wildlife Man agement Area, and the other des cribes the principal home of the Trumpeter swan over in the Mon tana reserve at Red Rock Lake. We will find more interesting reading when they put out a book let telling of opening up some of the reserves to migratory water fowl shooting during the season. We mentioned a while ago that smoke eaters from the Shasta for est had been sent down to help with fires. We'd like tu add now that there were also crews sent from the Modoc. The first group that went down consisted of Bob Schorch, Bill Derby and Joel Ste phens. The second, all from Adln, was made up of Harry Taylor. Al lan Haske, Bill Bradley, Leon Kcl ley and Omar Gaylord. These guys on the forests really believe in helping each other out. For tiie first time in several years Buster Bramletti and I planned a rabbit hunting expedi tion this winter. And now no snow. Oh well, such Is life. I'd a lot rath er have the nice weather than I would the work of a rabbit hunt anyway. ALONG NATURE'S TRAIL By KEN McLEOD In the study of pollution the eniej problem we must llrsl con. cider Is the decision which of the many uses of water is most im portant for a certain part of a cer tain river. Then we must develop these uses first, being careful not to harm the water any more than is absolutely necessary. By good planning and special attention to the treatment of wastes, we can make every river work for us in many ways. The state agencies and the fed eral division of water pollution control have gathered together a lot of known facts on pollution con ditions In the United States and have published this data In a aeries of reports, one for each of the major drainage basins. These reports tell us what we know and point out the problem for the deter mination of lurther necessary iact 40 inese reports the experts have told the people of the United Stales What they figure the cost of the program will be to get the job done. The Klamath River has been in cluded in the report on the Cali fornia drainage basin, which in clude along with the Klamath, tha Sacramento, San Joaquin and Salinas rivers. An area of 111,000 square miles with a population of 10,600.000 people. In this great wes tern area there are 629 municipali ties with a population of 8,423,185. Kind of interesting to note that while "we might consider ourselves 'country" people here in our wes tern area actually 80 per cent of us are really city slickers. In our territory therefore we have 529 municipal sources of pol lution'' that discharges pollution equivalent of a population of .123,140. This latter figure is larg er than the actual population be cause It includes Industrial wastes ciiscnarged into the municipal sew ers. In comparison to the Californ ia area we might look at the Pa cific Northwest drainage area whlchi: includes toe Columbia. Bnake, ' Willamette and the Pcnd Oreille1' rivers. An area of 270,000 aquare miles, more than twice the alze of the California region. in the Pacific Northwest the ooo- vlatlon Is 4.600,000, or a little over half the Calliornia figure. The num ber Of municipalities in this ureal Northwestern area is 4.14 Just 95 less -than the California figure. The people of the Northwest, there fore, are a little more rural than the California section lor in this case, slightly over one half the population live in cities. Of the 434 municipalities in the Northwest only 400 are producing known discharges of pollution but the discharge is the equivalent of a population of 3,002,181 people or about 20 per cent greater than the actual population, a condition cre ated by the industrial wastes pro duced and included with the muni cipal sewage. Now as to what is being done In these two regions toward handl ing the pollution problem. In the California area we find 244 of the 529 cities have primary sewage treatment plants and then 194 of the municipalities go one step fur ther by giving their sewage a sec ondary treatment. Three million three hundred and fifty-five thou sand live hunred and ninety-three people in the California area are served by some form of sewage treatment plant In the 244 cities; 91 cities with a population of 2, 043,738 have no treatment plant at all. The Pacific Northwest's 434 cit ies have 141 sewage systems serv ing only 125,212 people. This fig ure has changed materially since ihe city of Portland's new sewage treatment plant has been put into operation but when the data was compiled only about 12 per cent of the population was covered by some form of sewage protection in the Northwest as compared with 40 per cent in the California drain age area. Industrial sources of pollution in the area likewise lorm an interest ing comparison; the California area had 443 plants that dis charged their wastes directly Into the watercourses, the Northwest had 824. Of the California plants 199 were treating their wastes while only 148 plants were doing likewise in the Northwest. The population equivalent of these In dustrial pollution sources in the California section was equal to 2.707,000 people while In the North west It was equal to a population of 12,825,773 people. The Californ ia sections Industrial pollution load was about the equivalent of 33 per cent of the population while in the Northwest the load was around 533 per cent. These make some interesting com parative ligurcs for our great wa tershed areas especially when it is noted that, the Industrial pollution load In the Northwest is greater than the population of the Californ ia area and almost equal to that section's combined Industrial and population equivalent. This empha sizes the fact that Industrial pol lution is one of the serious aspects of our pollltlon problem. THE DOCTOR SAYS By EDWIN1 1. JORDAN. M. I, Angina pectoris means literally pain In the chest. It Is usually caused by a diseased condition of ihe arteries which supply blood to Ihe heart muscle. These blood ves sels nre called the coronary arter ies. The pain develops when not enough blood is passing through them to supply the needs of the heart muscle. The hardened coronarles do al low some blood to pass through, consequently the pain usually does Warren Speech To Be Heard W.

It was formerly thought that a person with angina pectoris could not live very long and could not avoid suffering great discomfort. But according to recent studies, the average life expectancy alter the first sign of angina Is about right to ten years, and some live more than twenty-live years. In addition to the improved out look which has been uncovered, methods of Improved management are being developed constant ly In which the amount and kind of exercise Is more closely adapted to the patient. Until research workers have dis covered a means of preventing hardening of the arteries, angina pectoris will continue to occur. It Is well to realize, however, that while this Is a serious condition It does not mean the end of all good things. Sensible adjustment to the new circumstances Is necessary. This can be accomplished with treat aucceas.

SLPTO Ikl TUE IklCICUAOV.. r, I W5 -Bruce Biossat Since President Eisenhower left until later messages the specific details of his program to shore up American prosperity, his pre-Con- gress speech to the nation must be viewed in a broad light. Its prime significance, perhaps. lies In-the fact that on an import ant Issue the maintenance of high economic levels the Presi dent saw fit to go directly to the people with his assurance of ac tion. And he took his case there even before delivering his regular Stale of the Union message, which Itself is automatically guaranteed a wide hearing. - Evidently the decision to apeak to the nation In this manner re flects an enlarging administration pattern the determination to seek the support and confidence of the people as a lever to force favorable action on the President's legislative program. it is no secret that the months ahead In Congress will provide Mr. Eisenhower with the toughest tests he has had since taking the White House. Opposition to many parts of his program is certain to come both from powerful elements in his own party and from increasing dis pleased segments of the Democrat ic Party. Again and again the President has been advised that his strength lies with the people and that If he would put his proposals across he must draw upon this substance. One way to do it is go about the country meeting people at first nana, nnouier is to utilize radio- TV channels steadily. me dan. 4 speech obviously Is a step In the execution of such a plnn. Mr. Eisenhower knows the Republican Party must have a rec ord to show if they are to make strides at the polls in November. He believes Uie people can heln him make that record, that they are for the things he favors. If he is right, then his direct ap proaches will produce pressure on Congress to back his specific pians. One other vital factor undoubted ly governed the making of the Jan. A speech. Talk of recession, of mounting unemployment, is gain ing in the land. The President wanted to reassure the people per sonally that no "boom-or-bust' economy would be allowed to de velop In tills country. He was probably well advised when It was suggested that hi calm the nation's fears by communicat ing his own warm confidence and strength to the American citizenry. In this role, the President is act ing with all the power and prestige an American President can must er. Soon we shall learn whether Congress' is willing that he should act with such vigor and forthright-ncss. Sam Dawson NEW YORK in Americans may work oil some of their debt load tills year.

Key Witness In Reuther Shooting Flees Guard To Seek Refuge In lanada , i-I ...Aleharf fmm his nlU! DETROIT lifl Prosecutor Gerald K.

O'Brien said the witness saw the shooting and was one of three "assigned to the Job," although he didn't fire the shotgun blast that maimed the labor leader's right arm and all but killed hlin.

The warrant also lists four unidentified "John Does." Without the missing witness, O'Brien doubted he could convict any of the four named. O'Brien Identified the key wit ness as a .Canadian, but wouldn't reveal his name. He did say, How ever, the witness had been em ployed as "a slugger" by one of the four accused and was an ex- convict. Police Commissioner Donald S. Leonard said the witness shook his two do cemen-guards at a Down town Detroit hotel around 10:40 a.m. yesterday. He left the water running in a shower and presumably slipped out through a reception room mio which both his living and bedroom opened. His guards were In the living room. O'Brien said the witness had come from Canada voluntarily New Year's Eve and had been shifted from hotel to hotel since as a afetv measure. The man's attorney called the prosecutor at 4:40 p.m. to report Ihe witness had fled to Canada. O'Brien asked Ontario police to begin a search for him. The lawyer informed the prose cutor that the witness promised to contact him again today. O'Brien said the witness con tacted him through an interme diary weeks ago and voluntarily told his story. The prosecutor said he did not know what motivated the "confession," but said he had heard "one of the bunch" broke his jaw a short time before. He also pointed out that rewards total $204,000. Clarence Jacobs, 48-year-old Ca nadian ex-convict, was named by the witness as the man who fired the shotgun through a window of Reuther's kitchen, O'Brien said.

NEW YORKIvPI While the rest of America's mighty motor car in dustry was pondering how to make nut os out of plastic, young Lew Olascr did something about it. He built them. It is true they were only small plastic models of old style cars, but a fellow has to bettin somewhere, doesn't he And today, a tycoon of the toy industry at 36, Glaser turns out more cars than General Motors and the second Henry Ford put together and he's stepping up production for 1954. "I look for it to be a better year than 1953,'' said Glaser, who pyramided a $750 investment into & five million dollar annual busl ness In only 12 years. Here'i how Lew. & Brooklyn- born boy who took Horace Gree ley's advice to go West while he was still in rompers, did it "I had a radio repair store In Los Angeles when the war came on, and I decided I'd better get Into a different field. But what? I pick ed plastics because nobody seemed to know anything much about it, and I felt my ignorance wouldn't be too much of a handicap." For $750 he bought the equip ment of a plaMic novelties manu facturer who had become disillu sioned. Glaser set out to get gov ernment contracts for airplane and radio parts, and also made com pacts, picture frames and clgaret cases lrom plastic scraps. Hts volume mushroomed from $32,000 the first year to more than a million dollars, then collapsed with the end of the war. He had to find something new to survive so he turned to toys. His first gadget, a toy plastic washing ma chine thnt really worked, saved his business. "But the trouble with most tov novelties,' he said, "is that they will go over big one year and the next year they gr blooie. It's a fleeting business. Vou live on the edge of a cliff." Three years ago he began turn ing out his "Highway Pioneers." a series of put-them-together-your-self kits that enabled normal chil dren and bright adults to assemble and paint models of famous old American cars. They were an in stant hit. Customers began to de mand more and more kits so they could assemble a collection of the models. "It was a jackpot idea, and I d. like to be able to sav we realired It." ruefully admitted Glaser. "But tha truth It wt thought had I only a one-year toy when we start ed. "It took us a little time to under stand what we had an inexpen sive way for people to build some thing with their hands they could be proud of. It seems to satisfy a big need In people today. "The market was always there, but nobody had stumbled on it. We did." Glaser has found half the model kits are bought by children between the ages of 7 and 14, half by grown ups over 21. To his model car ser ies he now has added a series of famous fighter planes and naval vessels. He sold 10 million kits last year, hopes to market 15 mil lion this year, plans to add a line of plastic models J hat will appeal specifically to girls. Lew, whose headquarters Is in Venice, Calif., is still a bit dazed over the speed with which success came to him, and hesitated when I asked him what explained it. "Well." he said, "I suppose a fel low ought to keep his mind plastic enough so that if he does trip over a good thing he'll have sense enough to do something about it besides criticize the condition -of the pavement." "Doc" Kaler Does If Again "Just cr.l! me Doc", says Jim Kaler, operator of Kaler's Ambu- lance Service, who at noon Friday delivered his 14th baby. The outstanding male midwife answered a call to the C. J. Rut ledge home, 1845 Ivory, to take Mrs. Rutledge to the hospital, but upon arrival found that though his Cadillac Ambulance has been clocked at considerably "above 80" he could not hope to beat the stork in this race. Following the delivery, mother and baby were taken to the Klam ath Valley Hospital where it was re ported that the new arrival was a girl weighing 7 pounds 13 1 j ounces. Both doing nicely, thanks to Doc Kaler. According to the records "Doc" has delivered eight girls and six boys since 1948 when he started the ambulance service.

The hearing passed Its 136th day Saturday, Top Steer Prices Gain CHICAGO ir A two-way trend developed in hogs this meek. Bar rows and gilts finished 15 cents to sl.oo higher while sows ended up an equal amount down. Most of the loss on sows was recorded on Friday. Hog receipts at Chicago were about in line with last week but arrivals at 12 markets were about 20 per cent larger than a week ago. wholesale prices of fresh pork cuts tended lower during the peri od. Partlaly responsible for the late decline in sows was the fact plants speciallring in sows had ac cumulated their week's kill. In the cattle section choice and prime fed steers were in demand and gained (100 to 11.50. other grades were strong to $1.00 up. Other classes of cattle also moved ahead with vealers up as much as S2.00. Receipts were slightly smaller than last week but 5 pel cent larger than In the like 1953 week. Stocker and feeders con tinued seasonally scarce. Slaughter lambs closed the week steady while slaughter sheep were steady to 35 cents higher. A sus tained demand on the part of order buyers for lambs to ship to east ern slaughterers and a bigsar wholesale dressed market at Chi cago and in the east combined to support tha market. toil n ms wereJ Mauric. r-1 Home Fire Kills Three MEDWAY, Maine ( . that broke out while theiiJ were away Iiim . 1 home inio a blazing jH lor thren slepnln. -i.T' night, raising to 11 the day cnilQ latality. fires.

SAI.EM 'i Prostitution in Oregon does a $500,000 annual bus iness, and is being allowed to oper ate by law enforcement officials, Atty. Gen. Robert Y. Thornton said Saturday after a several months' investigation. Thornton said only a few" of the officials who let it operate are "crooked." But he added that the other local officials who permit prostitution "have swallowed hook, line and sinker, the propaganda of the pro curers, the pimps and the brothel keepers, that prostitution is a nec essary evil and cannot De sioppea. "I have been greatly surprised to find that in a number of sub stantial Oregon communities, city councils and various city and coun ty officials have allowed wide open brothels to exist, and seemingly have been taken in by the 'big lie' propaganda of the shady charac ters who live off the prostitution traffic." Thornton declared that "a size able underground traffic in pros titutes is operating on the Pacific Coast, Including Oregon." He has, he added, strong evi dence that prostitutes are shuttled about the state at regular Inter vals. "Address books confiscated from Red Union Plans Quick Strike Move LONDON W Two thousand key electricians, members of a union headed by a Communist labor leader, voted today to support their demands for more pay with a series of lightning one-day strikes throughout England next week. The strike will hit atomic energy stations and guided missile plants as well as airports, oil refineries, and steel factories. The employers' association the National Fede rated Electrical Assn., has coun tered with a threat to lock out workers one day for each day on strike. Frank Foulkes, Communist boss of the Electrical Trades Union, said the men are "Ally mobilized and at war stations" for the strike action. He said the threat of a lockout "is a challenge which will be met by the full resources of labor." Foulkes and other union officials refused to disclose exact plans, but said the strikes would be called so as to hit the employers' associa tion "where it hurts most, but not the country." The electricians are asking pay increases of up to 11 shillings (SI. 54) a week. They now get an average - of 9 pounds 4 shillings and four pence. ($25.80) a week. In addition to the strike by key electricians, the union plans to bring out another 30,000 of Its members on Jan. 18 In a one-day natlonwide stoppage. The electricians staged a series of one day strikes last August. The action reflects the worst labor un rest the Conservative regime of Prime Minister Churchill has yet had to face. Engineering and ship building unions, railroad workers, miners and building workers are all agitating for bigger pay en velopes.
