You probably read his final re marks as a senator or his first rmriR ilr a college man as sailing Richard Neuberger, the the Democrat's candidate to con test Ouy Cordon lor me u.o. oen ate, and backing up Cordon. "We better get behind Senator Cordon and given him a whopping majority," he said. There have been other college men Mr. Eisenhower and Har old stassen are a couple; Woodrow Wilson was another who nave done right well In politics. Maybe, by the time the Cordon Neuberger campaign Is over the Republicans would like to see College-Man Hitchcock run against Ex-Republican Wayne L. Worse. After "Pojr Richard" Neuberg er's story on Klamath in the Lincoln-Mercury times we were all set to give the advice, "Shoemaker, stick to your last," but Mrs. Ken neth McLeod, the local writer and historian, spoiled that. On a quick reading of the Neu berger story she checked off 17 mistakes of fact. It still made a good story, ex cept to those who know; his po litical schemes make good stories. except to those who know. Pun for the day: Many thanks make light work.

Frugal Bachelor Robbed, Beaten CAMBRIDGE, Md. Wl 'Winnie M. Jones, 57, a frugal bachelor who made thousands of dollars crabbing and oyster tonging but didn't trust banks to keep it for him, was near death and penniless today. Neighbors, who heard his cries lor help early yesterday, found him lying in the kitchen of his neat four-room house at Bishop Head, 30 miles south of here. He had been savagely beaten. Sheriff Waldo H. Robinson, who questioned Jones at the hospital during one of his rare periods of consciousness, said he told him he had been carrying between $6,000 era e,uuu.

A similar event took place last month near Redding on the shores of the low, wet expanse of Shasta Lake. It was the gathering of the Kamloops clan California Kim- loops, Inc.. to be exact a new organization that was formed along similar lines and for pur poses similar to the Order of the Antelope. It was the third annual gathering of the Kamloopsers. California Kamloops, Inc. was formed by a group largely made up of Redding and Northern Cal ifornia sportsmen. The purpose was (1) to gather funds for stock ing Shasta Lake with Kamloops rainbow trout and 2) just plain getting a bunch of good guys to gether. It bothers us a little to know that the Klamath rainbows have taken a back seat to the Kam loops rainbows. Just last week a 12-pounder was hailed as one of the largest caught here in some time. Time was when a Klamath Lake rainbow held the world's record. That time is long passed though and you have to talk to Doc Wright or some other earlier day sport to get up In the 20-30 pound class.

C. - Buz Larkin FOR Hail Insurance k Growing Grains Potatoes 114 No. 7th Phont6321 James Mar low WASHINGTON W "Q" clear ance, name check, full field in vestigation, evaluation, top secret security risk confidential: all gov ernment names for deciding who can stay In a government job or be trusted with secrets. There was national shock when atomic scientist Dr. J. Robert Oppenheimer lost his "Q" clear ance although the Atomic Energy Commission didn't use that phrase when it parted company with him. It just said he was a seeurlty risk, that he couldn't be trusted any more with secrets he had been handling a dozen years. "Q" clear ance Is the AEC's way of saying a man has been found trustworthy with AEC secrets. In Oppenhelmer's case it had been found he had a long and continued association with Commu nists. Another man could be drop ped as a security risk even though he didn't deal In secrets at all but drank too much. And there is a difference in the degree of secrets. One kind, of the most vital nature, is labled top secret. A less Important one is "secret". And a still less Important one Is "confidential." For example, a "confidential" document might be an FBI report of Its investigation of a man against whom nothing wrong was found. But if the report got Into Communist hands It might disclose "Investigative techniques" of the FBI. " Officials In any agency dealing with matters Involving national se curity decide who can be allowed to see "top secret" documents, who should see only "secret ma terial" and who needs to know only "confidential" matters. That "need to know" position Is at the heart of security In agencies dealing with Information vitally af fecting the national welfare. For example, a public relations man in the A EC would have to be cleared to know some information. But there might be no reason why he should be let in on a deci sion to make bigger or smaller hy drogen bombs. He'd be allowed to handle only Information that he needed to know to do his job. Before a government employe gets into a position of handling any secrets at all or no secrets he's supposed to be Investigated. The government doesn't check on all Its employes in the same way. For example, this would be routine for a man In a Job In an agency which doesn't deal In na tional secrets, like the Labor Department: Jones wants a clerical Job with the Labor Department. He fills out an application on which he lists for some previous years the Jobs he held and the places he lived. In addition, he answers questions about subversive organizations to which he belonged, if any. In a case like that a man looking for a nonsensltive Job (no secrets Involved) In a nonsensltive agency the Civil Service Com mission's own Investigators- make a check. They check with his previous oosses, pernaps witn his old land lords and neighbors. They run a "name check" with the FBI. That is, Uiey find out whether the FBI has any record on him or Informa tion against him. The same check Is made with the Army and Naw and House Un-American Activities Committee, which keeps an exten sive file on subversives, either real or reported. If Jones then Is not found to be habitual drunk, or homosexual. or criminal, and If he has no sus picious history of connections with Communists, he can get the Job. But it doubtful Information is turned up against him, then the FBI can be called In to make a full field Investigation, which means an investigation since the day he was born. In the AEC, where all Jobs are considered "sensitive," although some are more sensitive than others, a more thorough check than the routine civil service investiga tion Is supposed to be made. when all the investigations are finished, one'thlng remains: Since some derogatory informa tion is bound to turn up against anyone thoroughly Investigated either factual or spiteful informa tion agency officials have to evaluate it to determine whether a man can see secrets or not.

Which, Inci dentally, is the title of theme ar ticle by Varden Fuller, associate professor of agricultural ecomonlcs and associate economist in the Ex periment Station and on the Gian ninl Foundation. This particular ar ticle Is a preview of Varden's research for a forthcoming volumn on the growth and characteristics of California's population to be published this year by the Haynes Foundation. It is very evident that this publi cation will be on the "must" read list of every person concerned with the future problems of population expansion, not only In California but on the whole Pacific Coast as well. Varden Is very frank to ad mit his bafflement In attempting to predict the population of California twenty years hence, I can appre ciate his predicament for back In '23 or '24. I too. had the problem to predict the population of Cali fornia twenty years in the future and what it would be by 1050, that we missed by falling short 20 per cent Is no source of amazement, Varden adopts three presump tions of which you can take your choice, however, regardless of what one you choose it makes little dif ference for they all add up to the same conclusion we're going to have a lot of people around come 1075 and they are going to produce a lot of problems. Perhaps we had better be giving some decidedly constructive thought to the future. Varden's first assumption: "As sume California's present growth rate continues for two decades." The result, he predicts that Cali fornia's population will increase by 12-15,000.000 by 1S75 or a popula tion equivalent to that of Canada. Varden's second guess: "Assume the current rate of increase drops by one half." Then the 1875 in crease will be 9,000,000 or the equivalent of the population of the ten western states outside of Cali fornia plus the population of the Netherlands. Varden's third estimate would be to: "Assume complete cessation of ln-migratlon and only the natural population increase." What a blow that would be to the Mid-west Ok lahoma and Arkansas? Neverthe less, he states, "the population will still Increase by 5.000,000 people the equivalent to all western states except Washington and Oregon,." Varaen then turns his attention to the nation as a whole and he states: "Assume a gradual decline to the prewar birth rate plus the present population." This would glv the nation as a whole an in crease of 85,000,000 by 1975 or an amount roughly equivalent to the population of the United Kingdom. Writing of the embarVasment of others in the past who have sought to estimate our national growth Varden points out that while the earlier estimates indicated the pos sible population by 1980 as being 165,000.000 to 170,000,000, With a level or declining population there after such figures are now In error for at our present rate of growth we shall very soon surpass tills expected peak. Varden writes, "Moreover it appears extremely unlikely that our 1975 population will be any less than 200.000.000 and quite possibly reach 230.000, 000. Varden then has a cryptic point DANCE - THIS WED. Ginny Wriqhr r DANCING : !; 10 tin 2 Cot. Tim !' ' 9 till 1 Ore. Time '! 1 CA PERSON I ll'O t.lnc in passing comment: "Barring monumental catastrophies more likely of men than of Cod and assume that immigration will play a minimum role, the size of the United States population in 1975 will depend almost entirely upon birth rates between now and then." In speaking of California's pop ulation, however, Varden points out that while birth rates are import ant in the national picture they arc secondary to the net In-mlgration. For each person California grains by natural Increase, the State in the past has gained five or six from other states. This leads to the observation that from both sources California's population in past decades has grown three or four times as fast as the national average. Varden goes on to state: "'How to estimate (or guess) future in-mi-gration is even more unknowable than Is estimating future birth rates. Past net ln-migration to Cal ifornia has evidently been influ enced by relatively favorable In come differentials and by Industrial developments associated with the two world wars. The income dif ferential may be declining: the fu ture of war Industries cannot be known. All that can be done is to Indicate the approximate outcome of various possibilities." Add It up any way you may wish we cannot escape the obvious iu- ture of increasing population all it?- Joys, sorrows and discomforts are to be ours whether we like it or not.

His unnamed disease, a certain deficiency in the blood, prevents the blood from clotting. He needs fresh blood and direct transfu sions. Stored bloorj will not do. This industrial city of 34,000 in southwest Ohio has responded with hundreds of offers of transfusions. More than 40 pints of blood have been pumped into the youngster already. Eddie's physician said the boy was in critical condition but his spirits were good. The bleeding is centered in the throat and a tube has been inserted below it to allow him to take in oxygen. This prevents Eddie from talking, but he cheerfully shakes his head yes or no when questions are put to him. The doctor said the youngster was not suffering from hemophilia, a similar disease which makes people bleed when slightly wound ed. The doctor said it was a strange, unnamed malady. The blood Is deficient in one element one day and another element the next day. ' i Before Eddie underwent the ton silectomy, his blood was tested. The noncoagulation showed up aft er surgery. Mrs. Ruth Jones, secretary of the Presbyterian church, said the first' appeal for type O blood brought 180 offers from private citizens. One industrial plant, Armco, reported 417 employes ready to donate blood for the boy. FOR SALE - EiaaiueiW ma Central location. 4 sleeping rooms, private entrance, large hall and bath upstairs.
