Debate Held
In I(F Court
Farmers and sportsmen- en
gaged tn a lively debate today
at a public hearing before the
county court over me possiDie
closure of county access roads to
Taylor grazing land In Swan Lake
Valley.
A petition signed by 17 property
owners was presented to the court
requesting that part of Old fort
Road be vacated.
. Tne road provides access for
hunters to some of the Taylor
land, which Is choice deer-hunting
territory. It Is public land leased
for grazing purposes.
The debate was still on in the
courthouse at press-time. Over 30
interested persons crowded tne
room. The three members of the
county court were expected to make
a decision on tne closure mis ai-
tcrnoon.
William Canton, counly survey
or, said that the roads in ques
tion, which run north and ca.it
from oreeon Tech into the valley,
are in poor condition and little
Used excent by the hunters.
He added that mere a.-e omer
good access ro-ds inii the area.
Two petitions were presented to
the court In opposition to the
closure.
One was from the Klamath
Sportsmen Association, signed by
some 300 persons, and another was
presented by Audrey Baxter, sec
retary of the Klamath Archery
Club. Tills was signed by over
400 persons.
L. M. Mathisen, regional direc
tor for the state game commis
sion, told the court that the com
mission was opposed to the clo
sure because it would eliminate
one more access road to public
land and to a public resource, or
the deer.
Jack Marshall, one of the land
owners Involved, pointed out that
the roads sought to be closed only
directly affected 40 to 80 acres of
public land.
"All of the landowners wont
them closed," he said.

rates if the worker spends it to a
sanatorium or rest home.
Russian scientist , A. A. Letavet
told the ato.-ns-for-peace conference
Wednesday of these and other
steps to guard the health of Rus
sians exposed to atomic radiation
on their jobs.
But don't envy the Soviet atomic
laborer too much. He works a six
day ween, in contrast to the 40
hour, five-day week American ex.
perts reported their labor force
works.
Letavet said Russia has set a
"permissible dose" of radiation
the amount a worker can take in
a day without harm at five-hun-dredths
of a roentgen. (The roent
gen is the international unit lor
measurement of radiation.)
With a six-day week, the Soviets'
safe maximum works out to the
same three-tenths of a roentgen
per week the United States, Britain
and some other countries allow.
An American scientist reported
that there was "little difference"
at such low levels of radiation how
the , weekly dose was distributed.
Letavet said not all atomic work
ers get the six-hcur day and longer
vacation time, just those on cer
tain jobs where the radiation stand
ard might be exceeded. These in
clude workers on nuclear reactors,
utom-smasning research machines
and on certain jobs using radio
active isotopes.
If these Soviet workers happen
to be getting medical treatment
wiih X-rays in their ofi time, their
work day at the atomic plant is
reduced to live nours, tne Russian
added.
"Persons working under condi
tions of ionizing radiations," he
continued, "are recommended to
spend their annual vacations
which as has been mentioned is

An official of the American
Atomic Energy Commission told a
reporter if the radiation to which
U. S. atomic workers were exposed
reaches three-tenths roentgen be

"It's seldom necessary to do
that," he added. "With the protec
tive measures we employ, we've

At the same conference session,
devoted to "safety standards and
health aspects of large-scale use
of atomic energy," W. Binks of
Britain's Ministry of Health sug
gested certificates be introduced
on which would be recorded details
of all radiation exposure, medical
and occupational, which an indivi
dual receives during his lifetime.
