This bond issue was not decided on casually by Mayor Paul Landry and the city council. The need lor improvements in the city s sewer age system has been apparent lor many years. The final decision to place the bond issue on the ballot was made by the city officials af ter several years of study. The firm of John W. Cunning ham and Associates. Portland con- suiting engineering firm, has made two surveys of the city's sewerage system one in 1053 and another lust lull. Tills firm Is considered highly competent and It has made mnt end BiiDervlsed many mu nicipal projects of a like nature for many years. These surveys were studied ex tenslvely by the staff of City Engi neer E. A. Thomas' office and the members of the city administration before the .final plan was placed bclore the city a voters. The expanded and Improved scw r Kvstrm Is vitally needed If Klamath Palls Is to experience fu ture growth. Several Housing pro jects Inside the city limits have hern halted In the planning stace because the sewer lines in the city are now so overloaded that additional service cannot be sup plied. With the bulldinc of the U.S. Air Force Jet Interceptor base more housing will be needed In the city to accommodate the air personnel. This will further expand the need lor more housing malting the circle back to the need for the expanded and Improved sewerage system. Added to this Increase will be the workers needed to build the several California Oregon Power Co.'s projected dams on the Klam ath River. Other contemplated In dustrial developments In this area will raise the total population In flux even more. Of course, the system's cost will mean additional properly taxes for the residents of the city. Everyone wishes that a city could grow with out Ihe need for Increased taxes to supply the services that a munici pality must give Its citizens. How ever, we all know that this cannot be With Ihe bond Issue repayment spread over a 20-year period, the cost to the Average homeowner will not be exorbitant, llnolllcial lia- urea indicate that lor a tlO.000 dollar property the Increase in tax es will amount to about $8.03 for the first year. Tills amount will decrease slightly each year as the principal of Ihe bonded Indebted ness Is repaid. Even If Ihe city was not antici pating any future growth the Im provement of the sewerage svstem would still be urgently needed. The system was built in 1028 with a view to servicing about 12,000 peo ple. The latest census estimate shows around 18.000 persons resid ing Inside the city limits. Added to this Is the almost doubled sewer aoe flow per capita per day over what It was when the system and treatment plant was built. The Oregon State Sanitary Auth- nrny nns f.'.atca several nines in the past tew years that, It consid ers the present local system and plant very inadequate. Although Ihe sanitary authority has not ac tually forced the city to improve Its system, it has the nower to do o if the municipality doesn't solve the problem It self. It would seem to the writer that this Important bond Issue deserves an alflrmative vote of all the cltl ens of Klamath Falls. moment Buntline saw the young scout he felt that Cod was on his side. He saw In this handsome, slim youngster the new hero he felt America was Just dying to take to Its bosom. Roth writes: "Before he left Fort McPherson. Buntline had glv- en his di-scovcry a name which was to rewound around the world and change the entire concept of the West. "For the name was Buffalo Bill. "Buntline's first Job was to put Buflalo 'Bill In a serial entitled 'Buffalo Bill. King of the Border Men." This later became a book It contained the genesis of the myth of the Old West." Roth continues, "Cody tried to live up to the Buntline myth which strained him considerably . . . to be the temperate and chaste young god Buntline and oth er writers envisioned. Buntline went on writing dime novels about the paragon of all virtues, other writers followed suit. Prentls In graham was the most prolific: he wrote, rewrote the Buffalo Bill legend In at least 203 paper-bound volumes." Roth continues to sketch the me teoric rise of Buffalo Bill and then remarks "Over the past 30 years or more I have tracked down many of these 'noblemen of the plains,' and have come to know them well. I tell you Cody was so far above his Imitators Car ver, Pawnee Bill, Captain Jack Crawford, and the rest that they are puny little reeds and he the massive oak. When I knew Cody, during the last year or two of life, he looked like an aging goa; he had the manners of a prince, and the gentleness of a ssint. "He was perhaps the greatest advertisement for America that ever lived, singie-nanaemy ne made America known and liked in every country on the globe, for he struck directly at the play of children. In Norway, in China. In India, In Africa, kids played 'Buf falo BI1P for a generation. This one man by the sheer force of his personality, accomplished what the Marshall Plan, the voice or free dom radio, and the gabbling of Eleanor Roosevelt, not to mention the billions of dollars freely given the world over, failed to do. In fact, they succeeded in making America disliked. They undid what Buffalo Bill started." Lift' n I'nreer By HAL BOYLE NKW YORK 'ft It Is never pleasant lor cither parly when a boy defies his lather in picking out his life's career. It nss particularly difficult for Alfred ft. Globus, who at 36 has become one of the youngest ty coons in American chemistry. He deeply admired his father, who had come to this country alone at 18 and had sweated night and day to put himself through medical school. But young Globus himself was more Interested In puttering with chemicals than learning medicine. when his home chemistry e once blew some plaster off the family celling, the father told the youth: "You come from a line of doc tors. I am a doctor. You must be a doctor, ton." I want to be a chemist," the ! boy replied. Why?" argued the father. "How can you discover something the professors o( chemistry haven't already discovered?" Angered at his son's resistance. the elder Globus cut off his pocket allowance. Alfred then started spending $2 of his 12 60 weekly school lunch money for the chemi cals to continue his experiments. While "till a minor In college Alfred came home with some papers for his parent to sign as legal guardian. The papers had been drawn up by a Philadelphia llrm which wanted to pay him 114 wceklv royalties for a new process he had developed for the recovery "I Just wonder what I'd do with such a sum of money. I don't need It. When you have put as much of your life into a thing as I have In this, you hate to turn it over to someone who may regaid it only as another commercial ven ture." What Globus really yearned to prove was that as a chemist he could do more for mankind than he could have if he had become a doctor. But he can't prove It to the man he'd most like to. His father is no longer living. Question By JAMES MARLOW Associated Press News Analyst WASHINGTON lPv Vice Presi deit Nixon probably never had any doubt about what he wanted to do Just keep on being vice president another four years until President Elsenhower asked him to think it over. Why should he have to think it over7 ne is a politician, ana ne a be on a golden political road if he was on Elsenhower s ticket and It won again this year. In 1960 he. would be a major contender for the Republican pres idential nomination. And If Elsen hower should die between next Nixon would be president. The Republican party would then be almost certain to run him for president four years from now. What's his alternative, since he is both a politician and ambitious? If Nixon stepped aside and the Republicans won this year, Eisen hower could give him a high gov ernment Job, perhaps in the Cabinet. But from a political view Nixon would then have less claim on the Republican nomination for presi dent In 1960 than if he had served another four years as vice presi dent. "The only thing I have asked him to do," Eisenhower told his news conference yesterday, "is to chart out his own course and tell me what he would like to do. I have never gone beyond that." Elsenhower himself has declined to say whether he wants Nixon again although this by Itself can't be taken as evidence Eisenhower doesn't want him. But while Nixon has strong Republican support he also reportedly has some strong opposition within the party. Nothing hss happened to show any reason why Nixon wouldn't want the vice presidential nomina tion this year Just as much as he did four years ago. or even more. His chances of being re-elected look Just as good in 1958 as in 1962, perhaps better, since Eisen hower shows amazing popularity. Nixon, in his speeches In 1953 and during the congressional cam paign .of 1954, said things about the Democrats which they appar ently will neither forgive nor forget. They have made him a prime target. One thing Is sure: If Nixon doesn't run again, the Democrats' will have one less target In the 1956 campaign. For that reason some Republican miy feel that Nixon off the ticket is more of an asset than Nixon on It.

The fiber is deep in politics in this country. It seems sbout to set off an International squabble if not a price war. Uncle Sam wants to sell his sur plus cotton abroad at the world price. At first 'ance that would seem fair enough, since this coun try In recent years has lost most of Its once dominant position In the world market because Its price became higher than the world price. The United States could get back In the market by selling at wnat me otners get, have been prevented is doubtless more distressing than anv other kind. Among the worst of these is accidental poisoning in children. One of the commonest, though not the mo-sl fatal type ot poison ing among young children, is that caused by drinking oils, principally kerosene. One study of accidental poison ing in children under five years of age in the united Stales revealed that petroleum products accounted for one quarter of all accidental poisoning in this age group. In another study reported from the Northwest section of Vermont, 151 children were admitted to five hospitals during the past 10 years following the accidental swallowing or inhalation of kerosene. Three of these children died. Most of them were found on the floor choking, coughing, gagging, or vomiting. How did the children get hold of me Kerosene? Most of them drank 11 from glasses, cans, or bottles left on the floor to catch drip pings from leaky fuel lines or oil stoves. One sniffed kerosene from a drum Irom which the top was missing. Another drank from can containing kerosene used for soaking paint brushes. One drsnk from a cup of kerosene left on tne kitchen table by the mother who hsd been using it In treating uie, cnna lor nits. Of course, once a child has been found poisoned with kerosene ihe problem becomes one of immed iate hospitslization and expert med ical care. How quickly may be lit erally a matter of life and death More Important, however, is to prevent a child from gettinir hold of such a poisonous substance as kerosene in the airst place. Everyone with small children and those who may have small children around should be aware of this danger, and never, never leave kerosene in a place where it can be swallowed or inhaled by a curious child. Many cases of poisoning occur each year from such substances as furniture polishes, weed killers, cleaning fluids, Insect or rat poi sons and the like. Since one group of potential poi sons hss been developed largely since the war, namely the chemi cal substance used against insects around the house, special atten tion should be paid to any such agents. One of these, known as chlordane. has considerable poison ous possibilities not only when swallowed but when inhaled or even from contact wilh the skin. To be mentioned with these household substances are the drugs which people so commonly keen In the medicine cabinet. Among these Is the relatively harmless substance, aspirin. Of the first five hundred poisoning cases reported io me umcago poison control pro gram 84 were the result of aspirin poisoning. The lesson from all this l thai If we would avoid the tragic dan ger oi poisoning young children everyone should take Inventory of potentially poisonous substances and make sure that they are dis posed of in a safe place where they cannot be possibly reached by youngsters who are too voting to know what they are doing. .Soft Polio- By CHARLES M.
