FRIDAY. FEBRUARY 7. 1958 HERALD AND NEWS. KLAMATH FALLS. OREGON PAGE SEVEN C Of C Manager Relates Function Of Civic Division Edltor'i Note: This is the sec ond in a series of articles explain ing the work of the Klamath Coun ty Chamber of Commerce, in. con nection with chamber week which ends February 8. In his effort to review briefly the five divisions of the Klamath County Chamber of Commerce. Manager R. Frank Tucker today devoted his explanation to the civ ic Division. "Composed of nine committees," Tucker said, "this division is con cerned with the problems of local, state and national government." The manager continued, "One of the more important committees is the Taxation Committee. In 1957, it began its work shortly af ter the convening of the Legisla ture and studied - over 100 bills which affected the Basin, as well as the state. "Then," said Tucker, "reports and recommendations and commu nications were made with our sen ator and two representatives on the position taken regarding these bills, not only during the regular session, but the special session as well. "Our Aviation Committee," con tinued Tucker, . "was - concerned with three points of Importance during the past year. The first was a detailed preparation and presentation to the Civil Aeronau tics Board, dealing with the needs .for adequate air service in the Basin. The second was to sponsor legislation in the state to obtain air service to Salem, and the third was to continue working with mil- itary and civilian personnel on ; the problems of mutual interest that pertain to Kingsley Field." The third committee that Tucker discussed was the National Af fairs Committee. "Broken into two and three-man groups, this com mittee studies and makes analyses and recommendations to the board of directors on matters of nation al importance and issues such as federal vs. private power, farm legislation, foreign aid, atomic en ergy, school construction, housing, Hoover Commission, government in insurance, "security, spending and taxes." Tucker stated that the State Legislative Committee deals with many of the problems of the Taxation Committee and he added that this committee met regular ly and studied matters affecting Klamath County and the state dur ing the regular and special ses sions of the Legislature. Still another committee of the nine committee group is the In dian Affairs Committee. "No one in the Basin," Tucker stated, "has to be reminded of the seri ousness to our economy that has been caused by Public Law 587, which terminates the federal su pervision of the Klamath Indian Reservation In I960. This commit tee has been working on the prob lem since 1953. It consistently finds itself frustrated because of the manner in which the law is written. The major problem arises from the disposition of the Indian assets, principally timber, and the manner in which they shall be paid. At a hearing of the Senate Subcommittee on Indian ana insu lar Affairs, the committee testi fied that after very careful con sideration of all factors, there seemed to be no alternative but to recommend federal purchase of these assets. Another bia subcommittee of the Civic Division," said Tucker, is the Military Affairs Committee, which works closely with Kingsley Field. 'Rounding out our list of com mittees are the Fix-up, Clean-Up Committee, concerned with the cleanliness of the county, the False Advertising Committee, which has saved Basin residents thousands of dollars annually by its educa tional program of radio, TV and newspaper articles, suggesting that people investigate oetore buying." Concluding, the manager said that the Transportation Commit tee has studied the effect of a de creased rate on certain livestock and poultry commodities moving from the East to me western markets and its relationship to our growers in the area.
