OCTOBER 7, 1955 FftANK JENKJN8 BILL JENKINS Editor Managing Editor Entered as second class matter at the post office at Klamath Falls, Ore., on August 20, 1906, under act of Congress.

It was and Is a signal honor to be accorded the Fourth Estate and Is deeply appreciated by those members of the working press who are on the receiving end. At last night's ceremony Winston Purvine, director of our school-on- the-hlll, OTI, gave tnc address, a line Job which carried the picture of the press of today from its be ginnings a good many hundred years ago when the first moveable type was unveiled. Sitting there and listening to his talk I was struck by the Idea that maybe It's a pretty good idea for all of us newspaper slaves to sit down at least once a year and have someone give us a look at what we're supposed to be doing, what part we are supposed to be playing In the world ol today. Too many of us are too close to the - business side of things to be ame to penetrate to the heart of the matter, too close to tne ioresi to see the trees. The theme of this year's week Is "your newspaper fights lor your right to know." It is sometimes a fight, true, but It still remains, vhcn the wnoie tnmg is ooucg down to the essentials, a vital part of your life and mine In these United Stales. Taking a serious view of the picture it is not dif ficult to understand that the true benefits of the American Press are sometimes the almost hidden powers that lurk between the pages . of your daily newspaper. There is no. fear in the world greater than the fear of revealm'eni. Wrongdoers are not overly concerned with the penalty they may have to pay for Ineir misdeeds, but they have a deep seated and abiding fear that knowledge of their wrongdoings may become a matter of public Telling The Editor knowledge. It Is not the fear of punishment that crushes a man, It is the fear of having others know. Your American Press can I think, take somo small credit and some small pride in the fact that It has served to Keep tnose in high places, tnose in authority, those who could if so inclined, bilk Hie public well In line. It is not Ihe so-called "power 01 tne press that effects this, merely the excr rising of your right to know. I have long been opposed to the use of tne words "power oi tne uress. They seem, to me, to stand In the public mind us a boast, as a gauntlet thrown down by the press as such with a dare, a challenge. I am highly pleased that this year the theme has been centered around the right to know lather than the fact that this coun try has a "free press" and is symbolical of the American way of liie. Perhaps there is no great er reward to a people than the right to have and the strength to maintain a free press, but it is overstepping the bounds of proba bility if not possibility to say that the American press Is what has kept this country free. We have a free press In this country for a variety of reasons, foremost of which is the demand of the American people that they have and Intend to exercise the right to know. The right to know what Is going on along the num erous corridors of their govern ment, what is going on In their nation, their state, their county, their city and their neighborhood. But the American press is "free for more reasons than that. It is Tree because the people keep it that way. When a dictator rules a country and Impales the press on the hook of censorship you lose a free press. But you lose it just as surely when an individual pub lisher or editor, for one reason or another, sets himself up as his paper's censor and keeps from the public those things that he believes they should not know. Whenever this takes place the people of that community or region or whalever area is served by the paper have lost a "tree press and are get ting along with a publication nothing more. TOO COLD As winter Is amn'oachtnn and the early mornings are uvowins The press has no more right to colder, I am thinking of the boys I suppress details than they do to who are the carriers delivering your newspaper to the subscribers In the early morning hours Sun days, so as to have the nuner on your door slop by 7 a.m. Why can t arrangements be made lor a Saturday evening delivery, or bet ter still go buck to the Saturday evening paper, and allhough the boys would have to deliver the paper in the cold, It wouldn't be near as bud as getting un earlv In the morning out of a wnrm bed ana going out in the cold. 1 ve tried it and It's no Joke. Please let us hear what oilier subscribers think and give the carriers u vute.

Every sub Kcriber is doing his part lo sec to it that there Is a free press In this country. We hope that It will always re main free. I can speak for the industry In saying that every man ner of the working press who is dedicated to his job will lay down his life, If necessary, to keen It that way. And I know I can speak lor tne American people, as in dividuals, to see to it that never in our lifetimes or in the lifetimes of the coming generations, will there ever be official curbs nlnced on the American press. National security Is one thing, respected by me press and the public alike, but indiscriminate and unjust censor ship and restriction, the working hchind closed doors of the duly constituted authorities and the sup pression by official means ol news Ik not the American way of life or the path of the press today. want to rent a mosquito and, pray teil, wno doesn't Lorraine d'Essen Is Just the young lady for you. - - Mrs. d'Essen, a comely, hazel- eyed woman in her early thirties, has one of the oddest jobs in this oddest of all possible worlds. She is an animal talent scout. In three years she has built up $100,000 a year business locat ing specially trained animals for the movies, television programs, advertising agencies and indus trial firms. Her casting bureau for animal actors now can draw on 750 fur red or feathered creatures ranging in size from a sneering mouse tu dancing elephant. 8o far I haven't had a call for tight-rope-walking trained whale," mused Mrs. d'Essen, "and, frankly, I'd Just as soon I never do." If she does get such a call, she might rise to the emergency. Her failures are few. One example of the crisis that arise almost daily in her unusual career: A studio sent a hurry-up call for a mosquito in the middle of February. "I finally located one in Florida, and had it flown here," recalled Mrs. d'Esscn. "The mosquito had had no spe cial training, but proved a great natural talent. The scene called for a close-up of him biting a man s hard. He went through tin role as if he had spent his life before a camera. The scene dtdn t require a single retake." For this one performance the tudio paid $100. making the mos quito perhaps the highest paid in sect, in history. "What did we do with' htm? mused Mrs. d'Essen. "We turned Mrs. d'Esscn. mm loose in uie siuaio. i uian t feel like swatting him. Who wants to swat a $100-a-day performer?' Her animal actors average $100 an appearance, whether it is for moment, an hour, or a full day. Elephants, whose upkeep is more expensive, get the top rate $750. 1 Mrs. d'Essen rents some of the animals from other trainers, Florence's Flower and Fibre Shoo 9)5 Division Ph. 7628 ramnl.t. iltippllr. if M-itrrlali N.ttlrd. rr. lntlrurlionv Dr. J.

"Right now we are keeping an American crow. a llama from Peru (he is nameu Llucky and has a girl friend named Lllnda), an English sheep dog, two Oreat Danes, a wombat named 'Mr. Wimpole from Aus tralia, a Siamese cat, and a York shire Terrier called 'I.

' Her current favorite Is the bird. known as "Ole Crow," who makes one of the fattest livings of any thing in feathers as the talking trademark for a firm that makes well known Kentucky beverage. 'Ole (pronounced 'oh-lee') is the member of a crow family that has spent four generations in captiv ity," said Mrs. d'Essen. "He has a vocabulary of 14 words (none are four letters) and can meow like a cat. "He has been given an honorarv college degree, owns a 36-by-38-inch Texas ranch, Is an actual stockholder in a distillery, and loves to go to cocktail parties." "Ole" won't cat crow for any body. But he does love to dine on baked chicken, apple pie and ice cream, and cheesecake. At cock tail functions he is limited to an aperitif consisting of two drops ol bourbon in water. "If he takes three drops, he gets higher than an eagle," observed She has one tip to people who want to get along with dogs. "Never pat them on the skull," she said. "A dog hates this worse than you do a stranger who sud denly slaps you on the back. As a matter of fact you should never try to pet a dog until he comes up to you first." BRUCE BIOSSAT It was ironic that President Eisenhower was stricken at a time when he was pursuing a relaxed vacation schedule designed to keep bim out of trouble with his health. It was Ironic, too, that this should have happened but a few days before he was to . preside over a meeting on the general physical fitness of the American people to be attended by lead ing specialists and athletes. Undoubtedly some Americans may have wondered whether the President may not have played too hard in trying to escape the bur dens and tensions of office. They might be asking: "If there was a chance something like this could happen, why was he allowed to play all that golf?" Dr. Paul Dudley White, Boston heart specialist who flew to Ike's bedside after his attack, spoke of this matter In his highly informa- Lebeck Announces Sermon Subject The Rev. C. E.

I "A Man Sent From God" will he the pastor's message at the Sunday evening service. 7:30 p.m.' Special music has been planned for the evening service. ! Sunday School begins at 9:45 a.m. The "Enlargement Cam paign" continues with the empha sis this Sunday placed on: "Sun-; day School is a Place to Learn." WASTE OF BREW HALTWHJSTLE, England Wl Some folks in England have been watering their plants with beer to make them grow faster. This struck Joseph Henderson as a criminal waste of brew. He re ported yesterday he has dosed his chrysanthemums with three cups of lemonade weekly and has one plant 10 feet tall. tive report on the case. What he laid iTnot only helpful to an un derstanding of the president s ail ment but could be a useful guide to countless Americans In their middle and later years who might have doubts about the place of exercise in their lives. Said Dr. White: "Now I know there is a likeli hood of some pew'e thinking that the golf he (Mr. Eisenhower) played the day before his illness might have been instrumental in production of this attack . . . "But I have a feeling. I believe (this has had) no influence . . . We see attacks in people who nev r nlaved any golf. My own feel- is that aolf has often been wrongly blamed, that those who play golf and have attacks at the age of 65 might have had an at tack at 45 if they hadn't played golf. "Well, that is the present situa- tion. We just don't know, but we don't think that exercise itself is responsible. In fact, I am of the impression that it really helped to delay the onset of this ( rather) than to cause it." What the doctor said Is that consistent exercise may have add. rA trreatlv to the President's use ful days by warding off potential trouble. It may even have saved his life, since no one can say how much more severe his heart attack mignt nave been bad he not tried to keep his body as mobile. aupple and relaxed as possible. The best way to get steady ex. ercise, of course, is to take active part in sports. The President ob. viously is a greai ociever in mis for himself, and for all-Americans. People m this country nave for too many years tended to satisfy themselves by watching others en. gage in sports proiessionals and highly skilled amateurs. If anythlrui, TV nas maae me mat ter worse. Now millions don't even get the exercise of walking to the baseball park or the football field. The President's experience con tains a lesson. And Dr. White's words on the subject of exercise are advice that all our maturing folk should ponder. KEEP GOODS MOVING through Classified ads! Small cost, big pulling-power! Dial 8111.
