Progress, if you happen to think Jn that line, is being made in California where the Department of Fish and Game nas ouirawcu the use of 10 gauge shotguns on state managed waterfowl shooting areas. This is progress mainly for the hunters, not the ducks. I have al ways maintained that no more ducks are killed with the big bore guns than are with the more standard gauges. Perhaps fewer, although I wouldn't like to go so far as to say that there probably aren't more cripples with the 10 gauges. But in the over-all pic ture the outsize scatterguns make for poor shooting. All-too-often the man behind the gun turns out to be an eager beaver game getter who strains the barrel on ducks t' Impossible ranees. While this does nothing but flare the ducks off it certainly ruins the sport for the legitimate gunner who is will ing to wait for the birds to come within safe range before opening up. . 1 think California is on the right trail and look hopefully to the day when Oregon and other states will ban the magnum cannons. It is not. however, the final answer. Merely reducing the bore size al lowed the migratoiy waieriowi hunter will not affect the end re sult that is needed. Only educa tion can do that job. I don't know how to go about It but what, we need to do in the face of declining duck and goose populations and the steady encroachment of their feeding and nestina irounds by industry is cultivate the enjoyment angle of the game rather than instilling in young nunters tne necessity hrinsins home a limit. Certainly there is more to hunt ing than merely going out and slaughtering the particular game that happens to be in season. Tiiis is particularly true, I believe, of duck and goose hunting. Unlike many other forms of hunt ing there is nearly always some thing going on. There are birds in the air whether they be in range or not. There is a more or less constant movement and the sounds of feeding birds can.be heard for lone distances. There is no more beautiful sight anywhere than that of a flight of ducks swinging into the wind, wings set, long necks straining as they look over the ground and hen tho sudden slip and wnistie or wings as tney unsii swiftly down to the water or set tle feet first into tho stubble. A bird in the hand lasts only as long as the dinner table, but the memory of thrilling days on the swamps and the stubble ticids re mains forever. 'Specially if you carry a camera and record the colorful scenes for future remem bering Outlawing of the 10 gauge on these California grounds is a step in the right direction. I hope the example will be emulated in other areas. But it might be well to con sider some means of educating our youthful hunters to some of the esthetic values to be found in the field of gunning. Because that is where the true values lie. Not in the mere grisly business of kill ing the legal limit. Tax Talk By JOSEPHINE KlTTIiEDGE The most dangerous problem in the United States is the control of Inflation. Oregon's present unemployment and controversial tax structure, plus the factors of wage increases and price increases arc part of an almost national picture. However, Oregon is just emerg ing from a rather primitive econ omy into the middle areu where Oregon's politicians have used bus iness and industry as a whipping boy for vote getting. We repeat edly hear the question asked by out-of-state industry, seeking a new location, "When is the slate of Oregon going to wake up to the lact mat business uoes no: warn foothold in the lucrative trade oi . . ... ... Uk. inii holH if but Just a square tieai: ine .7 The operations of these traders ex tended along the coast from Ber ing Strait down into California, and were the foundation of Rus sian claims to territorial sov creienty on this portion of the ! North American Continent. Yankee traders also gained a business climate of Oregon is so unfriendly due to your constantly changing tax structure, and legis lation directed at industry, mat we are going to take our time be fore deciding on a location. It is coins to take a great deal more than the Committee on In dustrial Development and Planning and ils director, tho very pleasant Julius Jensen, to sell Oregon to industrial prospects. It will take a group of citizens that arc willing to study the is sues, and make a decision on just what kind of a state they want . . . one whose decisions on tax ation are not made on the basis of election returns of either pary; or a state that docs not cater to either business, agriculture or la bor as a special interest group but rather on what is good for the most of the people the most of Hie time. Why not lay aside the political party bias long enough to face a few facts? Facts such as this, for instance . . . that bank debits in Oregon in August 1957 fell $429. 860,562 below those Of August 1956. Facts such as the one that 16.300 persons are under unemployment compensation in 1957 compared to 6,300 for the same period in. 1956. That most of the counties in the state are straining their welfare budgets at tho seams for the bi ennium, and the biennium is hard ly under way! First of all, you are Americans and Orcgonians ... lets try to work together on this problem . . . let's place Oregon in a com petitive position with the other 10 Western states, for jobs, markets, industries and a contented people. Yankee Traders By KEN JlcLEOD We have sketched at some length the development of the fur trade from the British and Canadian side of the industry largely because the industry in furs was late in getting started in the United States. No great company arose in the United States until the first decade of the nineteenth century. Circum stances in America hud been un favorable toward the building up of the trade. The Revolutionary War absorbed the attention of the people, and its termination left ihiMii little Di-cDarcd to enter at once upon great commercial under takings. The Indians were gener ally hostile to the Americans and unilcr British influence. For a number of years Great Britain continued to hold the posts along the upper lakes, whereby the trade of those regions was- kent in the hands of her own sub jects. For a decade or more after the peace wilh Great Britain the obstacles to the organization of an American fur company were al most insuperable. Such organiza tion did finally come into being however, mainly through tne el- forts of one man. a foreigner by birth. John Jucob Astor. the ca reer of Ibis king of the American fur trade was destined to toucn heavily the history of the Oregon country. The West, however was not fully descried by the lack ol American traders for we have the example of the Yankee traders who ven tured into tho trade upon our Northwest Cousl. their part in industry plays nn intimate relation to the history not only of tho Amer ican fur trade, but of the nation it self. The trade in furs on the North west Coast was originated by the Russians as early as the middle until the new Hudson Bay Com pany under the governorship of Simpson destroyed their trade. The celebrated voyage of Captain Cook. 1776-80, made known to the world this reservoir of wealth; but it was several years before an authentic account of his voyage appeared, the results of the dis covery were not immediately tak en advantage of. In 17117, shortly after the ap pearance of the narrative of Cook's discoveries, some Boston m e r- chants, enthused by his reports, undertook to send some ships to see what could be found there. This was tiie beginning of t h e American trade on this coast, a trade that developed almost into the proportions of a monopoly; for down to the war of 1812 there were more than three times as many American vessels engaged in this trade than all of the other nations together. The trade as practiced by the Boston merchants, developed into quite a system, in which furs played an interesting role. A cruise of a trading ship ordinarily lasted three years. The vessel would leave home with suitable merchandise, in time to reach the Northwest Coast in the spring of the year. After trading all summer along the coast, it would go to tho Sandwich Islands for the win ter, and would return again the following spring. After another season's trade it would sail with its cargo to China, exchange it for goods suitable to t h e American market, and then return home. By virtue of this American trade we had four peoples claiming in terests in the Northwest Coast, the Spaniards, the Russians, the Eng lish and the Americans. The Span iards were gradually eliminated. The Nootka Sound Convention of 1790 gave Britain at least the right to trade in the territory unoccupied by them. When France ceded such rights as she had in Louisiana to Spain, the Spaniards gained the undisputed advantage of holding the hinterland of the tern'ory on the Pacific now claimed by the United States, particularly did this enhance the American claim to the valley of the Columbia River and the settlement of Astoria. Settle ment of the rival claims of Great Britain and the United States to this country however, was post poned by the so-called Treaty of Joint Occupancy of 1818. The final eliminalion of the Spanish claims to the area came with the Florida Treaty of the following year. A boundary line was drawn which reached the Pacific Ocean on the forty-second parallel of latitude. By the treaty tho Spanish King ceded to the United States all his rights, claims and pretensions to the ter ritories north of the said line." From then all the Spanish rights to the coast were claimed by the United States, Russian progress southward was stayed when a treaty of 1824 with the United States, and another in 1825 with Great Britain placed the southern boundary of Alaska at 54 degrees 40' North Latitude. Thus Britain and the United States were left to determine the sovereignty question of the Northwest Coast. By the agreement of 1818 each side recognized the other's equal right to the trade in the region for an agreed period of ten years. charine roles." she said. "But no human being is really that way. I want to be able to por tray all the emotions of a normal girl living in the present pan oi the 20th century. Shirley, a Smithton, Pa., brew er's daughter, has had only one small setback in her career. She failed to win a contest to repre sent her state in the "Miss Ameri ca" beauty contest. But after ap pearing in the Pittsburgh Civic Light Opera, she won star rank in two important Hollywood pro ductionsOklahoma: and carousel." But was she to spend the rest ol her life in crinolines? Some mean ies were unkind enough to suggest that Miss Jones, although she had a wonderful voice, was a bit on the chubby side and maybe the crinolines were a merciiui lavor Shirley's answer was to diet down to a svelte 113 pounds 'she's 5 feet 51 for her latest film "ADril Love," costarrin'g P a t Boone. Only a born churl could find fau t with her figure now. "This is the first modern-day picture I've been in, she said, smiling. "And I'm out of my crinolines at last and into blue jeans." , The film is a rural harness rac ing epic and is perhaps most no table for the fact it contains no drug addicts or juvenile delin quency. Nobody even gels beat up in it, and even the horses are honest. The trimmcd-down Jones chas sis is seen to good advantage as Shirley docs a chaste strip tease while preparing to take a shower, She has no intention of trying to outdo Gypsy Rose Lee but she does hope to progress to more mature roles in which she can demonstrate her acting ability more than her talent at singing. One of her goals is to appear in a stage show with her husband, Jack Cassidy, who is a veteran of 23 Broadway productions. She and Cassidy. who have boueht a home on the West Coast live quietly and avoid the rounds of cafe society. Shirley not only looks like the girt next door she can cook like the mother of the 2irl next door, and enjoys it. 1 like living, sne said, i line my marriage, l uite people, i I guess right now I m in love with the world. Eventually I want to raise a family of four or five children. If 1 can have them and stay in snow business 1 will. But if it becomes too much of a task, then I'll get out.

That is one of thc reasons that suddenly we face con ditions that were non-existent be fore. Another lactor that has contri buted to this picture has been thc political pulling and hauling about taxes, rather than a realistic ap praisal on the basis of what is good lor the people. Sen. Richard Neuberger made a statement in Klamath Falls this past week that he has used rather consistently, saying in effect that "It is not our high income tax structure that makes lor a do pressed economy in Oregon, bill that we lack a supply of low-cost electric power." Of course, this lies in rather directly with Hie public power-privato power dispute that has raged in Oregon to tho extent that it has jeopardized any type of power development in many in ula nces. In my opinion any industry com ing to Oregon, other than one that reduces raw material as does thc aluminum industry, might be more interested in the availability ol a plentiful supply of power, rather than the low cost of power. The cost of electric power in doing business is one to three per cent. The cost of taxation In doing busi-' ness is 13 to 20 per tent. I am j sure that any business that might with to locate in Oregon would lu st (live consideration to the supply of raw materials, plentiful water sup ply, availability of electric power and close markets . . . then the next consideration would he a fair tax structure and a friendly busi ness climaie. The charge has been made thai I Russians to thc American Coast was the great abundance of sea otter, whoso fur is the most prec ious known. These furs the Rus sians collected and carried to thc Siberian Coast, whence they were transported partly to the interior and partly to the frontier of China. 'Old-Fasliiou ISir-r By HAL BOYLE NEW YORK Wl Shirley Jones is a sweet, old-fashioned girl who doesn't want to spend the rest of her life acting like a sweet, old fashioned girl.

Dr. Theodore Mumpp says la- tigue doesn't necessarily stem from disease or overwork. Often it re sults from loss of incentive, moti vation, and interest. Klumpp, president of Winthrop Laboratories, inc., wrote mine current journal of the American Medical Association that fatigue can be a normal incident of nor mal living. But he said it becomes a serious problem and requires medical at tcntion when its pattern changes radically or it interferes with ordi nary activities. Formerly, doctors used to ad v ise "cutting out something" from the routines of people, especially aging ones, with whom fatigue had become a problem. But Klumpp says exercise, coupled with judi cious sleeping habits, is now con sidered a better prescription. SAN FRANCISCO - A method of "paralyzing" the human heart for an hour or more to allow for surgery was described her by Dr. Donald B. Effler, chief ol the Department of Thoracic Sur gery at the Cleveland Clinic. Effler told the annual post grad uate symposium of the San Fran Cisco Heart Association that t h basic technique involves hooking the patient's body to a heart-lung machine and then injecting potas siiim citrate into the heart. This results in a paralysis of the heart and it can be brought back to life without danger. He said human hearts have bee stopped this way for as much as .is minutes and hearts ot dog: for three hours. Effler explained that this paral ysis allows surgeons to work bet ter at replacing damaged coronary arteries. He said that otherwise the sur geon must operate on a pulsating organ while the patient is ion stanlly losing blood.

Bower of the Klamath Na tional Forest announced today that restrictions imposed by Regulation T-l on the use of fire on National Forest lands are removed, effec tive October 4. Heavy rains,' averaging two to three inches over the forest, haye reduced the fire hazard to a point where campfire permits are no longer required. Forest officials emphasize that there are apt to he periods ol dry weather through the fall and ask hunters and other forest users to con tinue to exercise caution in the use of fire and care in smoking and extinguishing campfires and warming fires. The California state law requir ing a permit to burn slash or de bris anywhere on timber or brush covered lands remains in effect until December 1.
