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.

Communists have rejected a
Western allied protest against the

East German Democratic Repub
lic." The West had protested to
the Soviet government in East
Berlin on grounds that parades of
armed German groups are
banned in Berlin under four-power
agreements. The Soviets re
ferred the protest to the East
Germans.
