If you could call our June weather this year anywhere near usual. As you drive along you notice that some of the spud fields are looking fine, big and green and healthy, while right in the same area are some so poor and thin as to make you wonder if there will be anything. More good ones than bad ones, though. ' I Barley fields about the same, but prettier. And you have to admit that It's ( pretty country down that sway. Seems to us, - on looking back over the years, that Old Man Weather does a pretty good job ot scaring us here in the Basin about . two years out of five. Not only the crop situation, which Is one of the imponderables of the world, but he gets his hook into the businessmen who have a big stock of spring clothes to move, they cause grey hairs and sleepless nights, for the rodeo directors who have to sit and chew their nails and wonder if the snow will be rained out, he upsets untold party plans, alters vacation plans, holds up engineering crews, keeps fire lighters and smoke Jumpers on edge, fills the air with conversation bout himself and in general just takes over as the most important topic about this time of year. . Our bet is that we'll have nice weather for the Fourth, that the crops will come out of it pretty well despite our numerous frosts, and that the old Basin will still be the best spot In the Northwest to live. : Tom Rom, the boss man down t the Tulelake Refuge, may have come up with the record that all fame men strive for in the three years since he's been down there, t. He was telling us yesterday that If everything goes according to schedule they will Just about break even on their duck figures for the year.

JORDAN, M.D. It is appalling and tragic bow many accidental deaths there are anion? tiny children. -j Among those from 1 to 4 years oi age aooui woo aeatns or one fourth of all of those deaths in children of these ages in the United States and Canada occur each year as the result of accidents of one kind or another. The majority of these thst is about one-half of the total number are the result of motor vehicle accidents and this wss half as bad gain In Canada as in the United States. ; Deaths from burns of various origins, from drowning, from ac cidental swallowing of poisons and from other usually avoidable mis haps are also too common among these toddlers. , What can be done to. halt this massacre of the Innocents? The greatest possible care In driving motor vehicles, especially 11 small children are expected to be around. is obviously needed. In the case of burns obviously the most effective method is to keep fire or fire making equipment away from small children with the greatest of care. If the clothing of a child actually does catch fire the lire should be smothered at once by wrapping the child In a rug er blanket. . An Important preventive meas ure also is to keep hot pans on the stove out of reach of a small youngster who might tip it over and get badly scalded. ; One particularly heartrending I THE OLD FORT FORT KLAMATH.

Last year the area produced about (0,000 waterfowl, and the outlook for this year is close to 100.000. And hunters last year took just over a hundred thousand birds. That would indeed be a fine rec ord, one to brag about. On top ot that they have done enough work In the past few years on that area that mere nave been no violent out bursts of botulism, losses being held to a few thousand birds, they have constructed a water-handling system that allows them to reeu- late the water levels anywhere in the reserve at any given moment and have brought much more land under production on a lease basis. While we were talking to Tom he was passim; on a few yarns about the difficulties tba you can en counter In that sort of a deal. They started to surface the road in front of the headquarters unit and promptly ran into a series ot me chanical breakdowns that lasted clear up until it was too cold to pour the oil any longer. They have been carrying on amidst the noise of hammers and saws as carpen ters put an addition to the main oi i ice. And as if thst wasn't enough they had a fire down there a few nights sgo. started by a fsultr now. er line, that reared un over the nm and kept an alreadv-tired crew of men on their feet all night to seep irom spreading. Life, amidst the ducks and geese is uui au oeer ana slimes. .The drive across the state line road is just as attractive as ever. and If you're a newcomer to the area we can heartily recommend It to you. There are a lot ot ducks and a-ees to . see even now, what with broods of tiny mallards tumbling around the edges of the tule clumps, geese getting their fill of barley from the fields across the road and divers an over the place.- type of injury to small children is that which results when thev t hold of some poison In a bottle In uie meaicine cabinet or elsewhere and try to drink it. If poisonous liquids or solids must be kept around the house uiey snouid always be placed be yond the possible reach of. the curious youngster. If a child does swallow poison, vomiting should be brought about at once by placing the finger down the child's throat (this with the exception of lye or kerosene poi soning). Naturally, the' poison bottle should be kept so that the doctor will know what the child has taken, and professionsl advice should be obtained at once. Another source of death or in jury to small children comes from falls. Not infrequently a small child will lean against a window screen and if this Is loose may fall out snd be severely Injured. Check vour screens. These are only a few of the In juries which can occur to small children and older ones 'as well of course and certainly an ounce of prevention Is worth a pound of cure. , .

In the eyes of Joaquin Miller and others who were sympathetic toward we Indian, a century ago, the Indian was a "Doomed Race." liowever, as we look back upon history, in spite of atrocity, liquor, and disease, the American Indian fared better than many modern day people. The Indian was given some land that the white man, at the time, considered worthless for all practical purposes this, ol course, was the forerunner of the Twentieth Century model "concen tration camp," barbed wire and other improvements In the system were still to be devised by an en lightened civilization. The Indian was given some degree of freedom even though surrounded by a spare sprinkling of bayonets of doubtful utility. Nevertheless, this restriction of freedom, to the man of the wilderness, was probably Just as oppressive as Its present day counterpart in our so-called ad vanced civilization. What the early writers failed to realize was that It was not the In dian who was "doomed." but his civilization and culture. We may romance today over the "dark and bloody trails ' of the wilderness. of massacres, of Indian wars, and what not, that are the heritage of our historic past. However, when we face the problem frankly, the total number of deaths by such spectacular measures were actual ly exceedingly small. There were nardships in life and travel during these early days but danger then was probably no greater than to day when one ventures out upon the highway during a holiday. The greatest killer of men, both red and white, was disease. Just as an illustration the great run ning battle fought by Chief Joseph and the Nes Perce against the American army resulted only in 136 troops killed. 140 wounded on the part of the white man. The Nez Perce lost 151 men of their fight ing force and bad M wounded; In addition, at least as many women and children casualties. Then Jo seph and his people were. sent to the "concentration camp" reserva tion in the hot. bleak, Indian Ter ritory. There for seven years. Jo seph sadly wstched his people die of malaria, dwindling from 450 to 280 before they were permitted to return to the Northwest. This example provided us bv the Nez Perce was not an exception in uie history of the relationship be tween the white man and the red man. This is exhibited in Joaouln Miller's irony in his' satirical, "The ungrateful wretches! " (the Indian) "alter all the Government had done for them! Why did they not keep quiet, and die of small-pox ana cnoiera in the little Dens built for them, all at the expense of the Government?" How well the Indian Department ma 1:00 P.M.

The current pro posals of legislation were intro duced into Congress to set in mo tion a new policy whose ultimate goal Is complete termination of the federal government's historic role of protector of Indian rights and property. A resolution adopted bv senate and bouse last summer declared It to be the policy of congress "as rapidly as possible to make the Indians . , . subject to the same laws and entitled to the same pri vileges and responsibilities as ap plicable to other citizens of the United States." Indians have been full citizens since 1924, but lands held In common by members ol Indian tribes and some individual property are under the trusteeship of the federal government. Also the government provides various special services for the Indians.

Hal Boyle NEW YORK Ut - Did you know thm the way you carry your wallet reflects your personality almost as much as the way you wear your face? Howard N. Cooper, a psychia trist, has analyzed the pocket-book-pncklng habits ot American men and says they are "probably as good a tr.it for Individual psy chological factors as Uie project ive Rorschach." (Editor's note: What is a pro jective Rorschach a protruding racehorse?) (Boyle's note: No, It's an ink blot a pscychiatrlst makes. When he asked you what does the shape of the blot remind you of, and you say it reminds you ol a girl, he makes a note in his book. "Patient has girls on his mind.") (Editor's Note: But what If the ink blot Isn't shaped like a girl?) Boyle's Note: How can you make an Ink blot that doesn't look like some girl?i Cooper (to get back to the sub ject) found that many men today periodically shift their wallet from the back pocket of their trousers to their Inside coat Docket. "That is a sign they feel Insecure about people as well as worried about the salcty of their cash he said. 'On Uie other hand, a man who carries his money In a metal clip separate from his wallet is less concerned over material wealth. But he is the type who hates to have the routine ol his Uie upset. He Is less afraid of losing his rash than he Is ol losing his driv el's license." Dr. Cooper said Uie man who carries no wallet at all Is either completely free and easy of so Insecure that "he lights It by over compensating by pretending he is careless about money. A fourth type, the fellow who shifts his wallet from pocket to pocket haphazardly. Is probably in an emotional flux about wnat money and other things In his life really mean to him. He's unsettled." The psychiatrist said that the guy who keeps a cluttered wallet, full of cards he never throws away, is related in type to Uie stamp collector. He may be stingy, rigid of mind and stubborn. He is likely to be generous only In spurts. But man with too neat a wallet may have even more ol a withholding PURSE $200.00 $150.00 $100.00 $100.00 $100.00 $100.00 .. ............-.; EO TELLING THE EDITOR By t'ONOIIKHHMAN HAHRIS KIAbWORTH Whether by accident er Intent, the bill to authorise the approprla Hon ot funds (or foreign aid called the Mutual Security bill comes'to the floor ol the Houia at a time' of great tension In world affairs. I am certain, however, that It could not have been "planned that way." Hie bill Is a big one in that It covers our world-wide efforts, and It has been the sub. Jeet of much study and long hear ings by the Foreign Affairs Com mittee. The oommlttee Just hap pened to finish Its labors and send the bill lo Uie House for considera tion coincidental with: ID the visit of Prime Minister Churchill and British Foreign Minister An thony Eden: (3) the disturbing speech insda In Uie House of Commons by Eden; (3) commun ist activity In Central and South America which is causing serious worry here; m a new govern ment of France which Is moving Independently In dealing with the Indochina problem; and (6) the llullng out of the conference in Geneva. Only about J7 per cent of the some (3.J billions In the bill goes lo Europe. Thst, as well ss Uie remainder, Is mainly for the pur pose of bolstering no the defense euoris sua military anility of Uie free world. Although it seems necessary to go ahead with expenditures of this type while world tension contin ues. I shall vote for this author isation bill with no enthusiasm. I cannot escape uie feeling Ulat there Is Just a slight touch of hys teria behind the writing of millions and billions Into such a bill, tn other words. I respect the exper lence, the wisdom and sincerity of the Foreign Alfalrs Committee but I wonder about their ability In the field of mathematics. For example, one thing In particular bothers me about the bill. Of funds previously appropriated some X( billions are as yet unspent and un obligated. A total of SS.T billions of previous appropriations remains unspent, although obligated meaning that contracts or other commitments hsve been made. To personality than one with a messy We all have met people who aiways nave ine exact change In their pockeibook for any situation Whether It's buying a news- poper, getting weighed, or lipping a waiter. "They don't like to take Uie world as It comes," said Dr. Cooper. 'They want lo be pre pared and they don't like to be surprised. They t p eler a planned lUe." It Isn't as easy to tell a wom an's personality by the way she carries her cash. "The question of what Is chic or fsshlonable complicates Uie pic ture." said the psychiatrist. "Cus tom dictates more what a woman does. .''But a woman who carries her money in her bosom Is quite like ly to be an exhlblUonlit. She keeps It there not for safety but to draw attention to herself. This doesn't hold true, of course, of a woman who thrusts her money Inside her dress to avoid Imminent robbery," Can a girl choose a husrsnd by the way he carries his wallet? "Well, the best husband." said Dr. Cooper, "Is Uie one who car ries a wallet full M money at all Umes and opens the wallet at her slightest whim." How about uie thoughtless guy who marries and still keeps uie picture of a former girl friend In his wallet? "That probably shows an Im pulse toward self-destruction," smiled Dr. Cooper.

James Marlow WASHINGTON W-Tlie meeting between Prosldent Elsenhower and Sir Winston Churchill, Judging Ironi the two statements thev la sued, looks like an American British standoff, with both sides yielding a bit. United action In Southeast Asia which Is what Secretary of Slate Dulles had been talking about has born delayed. Britain's Foreign Secretary Eden wanted It delayed. But a nonaggresslon pact in Southeast Asia which Is what Eden had called for seems to hsve been brushed aside. Dulles and his stale Department wouldn't buv It. For the rest, Uie two statement! were mostly generalities upon which Uie United States and Bri tain had agreed long before the meetings which ended this week Dulles' Idea that got delayed Just before the April 3e oiien lug of the Oeneva conference, which had been set up to discuss. among oUier things, an armistice In Indochina, Dulles rushed lo Uie British. The Comniunlst-led Vletmlnh were kicking the French around In Indochina. Dulles urged Uie British to Join Uie United States in united action to Suva Indochina. Eden didn't want any, he ssld, until he had a chance to see whether the Oeneva conference could produce peace In Indochina. He didn't rule out the Idea oi a united acuon pact if Oeneva failed. Since Uie British wouldn't to to their aid, and uie United Slates wouldn't either unless uie British Joined In, Uie French were led with the choice of fighting harder in Indochuia or dickering with She Communists for peace. They dick ered and atlll are. Meanwhile, Uie Vletmlnh forces In Indochina are trouncing the French. The first Elsenhower Churchill statement, which dealt with this problem, made clear Uie British and Americans were still unwilling to rush Into to save indochuia.
