Arabs Ask
What's Qat!
ADEN A commission ap
pointed to decide what's what with
qat has handed down its verdict.
What s qat? A local lorm ot pep
juice, as stimulating to the Arab
as a martini and much cheaper. ,
Qat also known as kat, khat.
kasta, catha and catha edulis is
a shrub. It is native to Arabia
and the area of Africa from Abys
sinia to the Cape of Good Hope
wand is extensively cultivated.
Its dried leaves and shoots arc
used to make tea, or chewed, for
their eflect. ,
The commission said in its re
port Thursday that the Aden gov
ernment's total ban a year ago on
the import and use of qat was too
drastic. It interfered with wide
spread social habits of long stand
ing and caused resentment and
discontent in the British colony
The commission recommended
that the ban be replaced by con
trols on imports and the price of
qat. It also suggested that exces
sive consumption be discouraged
by long-term propaganda and "the
provision of counter attraction."
It didn't say what it thought would
bt as attractive.
Expert Denies
Orb Failures
MOSCOW I UP I A top Soviet
scientist said today there were no
failures in the launching of So
viet Sputnik III.
The Soviet claim that the sat
ellite was launched without mis
hap was made by Prof. Evgeny
Federov.
Asked to comment on reports
that the Russians had tried and
failed to launch their Sputnik
May 1, Federov told United Press
"No. there were no failures."
He made the denial after a
news conference at which he dis
closed that Ihe new satellite is
not expected to return to earth
"All the necessary information
will be received by radio trans
mitter." he said.
Federov also predicted that the
newest globe - girdling Sputn
would stay in orbit longr than
Sputnik II by at. least several
months.
The second Sputnik - carrying
Laika, the world's first space
traveler was launched Nov. 3,
1957. It disintegrated April 14.

KUHS Board
From Proposed Budget
By JOHN GUERNSEY
Members of Ihe Klamath I'nion
High School Budget Board succeed
ed in cutting 131.000 from the high
school's proposed budget when
they adjourned from emergency
session late Thursday evening.
When considering the reduction.
the budget to be resubmitted will
be about 130,000 above the $727,892
required for the KUHS operation
during the now ending school year.
On the basis of the operational
amounts and the serial levy of the
district, the combined levy of the
budget which was defeated would
have been approximately 29 mills,
or 3.3 mills above the 23.7 miliage
for the now ending year. This
figure is computed without consid
eration of the $95,000 which will be
forthcoming to the district in ad
ditional state support funds when
the budget is approved.
On the basis of the,budget which
will be resubmitted, the opera
tional and serial levy miliage will
be about 27.7. or about two mills
more than the combined levy of
last year.
However, if the budget is ap
proved, the property mill levy for
the coming school year will actual
ly be less than it was during the
now ending school year. This is
made possible by application of the
S95.000 which will be forthcoming
in additional basic school support
funds from the state. The amount
is worth about four mills when
applied against the overall levy-
When applying this amount, and
when coupling it with $15,000 ad
ditional receipts in prior taxes and
the $31,000 budget cut, the overall
levy for the coming year will be
about 23.1 mills if the budget is
approved. This figure compares
with the 25.7 combined miliage
which was assessed foe the now
ending year.
When working with the budget
Thursday evening, the board
members effected the largest sin
gle cut when they deleted $10,000
which had been set aside for re
pair work at the natatorium.
Other items feeling the budget
ax were $1,000 to be contributed
to the city-county planning Com
mission study group; $300 out of the
convention fund: $5,000 for the de
letion of-one of the three antici
pated additional teachers: a $2,812
reduction of the raises which had
previously been granted the. jani
tors and bus drivers: $1,000 A-om
the $4,000 fund which is normally
used for balancing the athletic
fund at the end of-the year; ap
proximately $3,700 from the' cafe
teria fund: $1,025 for lighting one
room; $500 from the capital outlay
fund of the music department; $256
for Pelican Court lighting: $1,600
for drawing desks: $2,850 for Pel
ican Court bleachers, and other
small miscellaneous items.
When reducing the salary raises
for the janitors, members of the
board pointed out that they did so
with regret. However, the mem
bers of the elementary beard had
previously effected such a reduc
tion, and it was felt that the hieh
school board would have to effect

janitors and bus drivers work with
in both systems.
In another Item which was de-
baled extensively, the board ruled
that the driver training program
is a needed part of the school in
struction and that it should be
left in.
The $5,000 reduction of one antic
ipated teacher addition was made
possible when it was pointed out
bv Superintendent Arnold Gralapp
cT Principal Charles Carlson
that the fall enrollment might be
little less than was originally
anticipated.
Another item subject to debate
was whether the school should con
tinue to furnish gym clothing for
the students taking part in the
physical education class. It was
the thinking of member George
Flitcraft that the school might
rent the equipment to the stu
dents, or charge a small fee for
students registered in physical
education. ,
It was his thinking that the
school already provides $4,100 for
laundering the gym clothing and
towtls, and that the sanitary
aspect of the programs could be
maintained. It was the thinking of
some board members that some
students would not be able to pay
a $1.50 physical education fee. and
that the school should stand the
cost inasmuch as two years of
physical education is required by
the state standards of education.
Encompassed within the $3,700
cafeteria cut was the delayed pur
chase of a $2,400 ice cream ma
chine. The board will meet at noon on
May 19 to finalize the budget, and
it is probable that the new budget
election will be July 7. On that
basis, persons voting in the elec
tion will have to be registered not
later than June 6.
The public hearing on the budg
et will be sometime during the
second week of June, the exact
date to be determined at the
board's meeting Monday.
