Dunsmuir Job Picture OK ' DUNSMUIR The employment picture in Dunsmuir is much im proved, Mrs. Thelma Bender, man ager of the Dunsmuir office of state employment, said recently. Continued unemployment claims dropped to 616 in May from an April high of 1,445, she said, and Indications arc for a continued drop this month. Resumption of road construction and lumbering and logging activi ties are credited with the employ ment upturn in this area. Railroad layoffs are handled by the Rail road Retirement Board so Mrs. Bender has no statistics on this portion of the local employment picture. However, she said she knew a large proportion of train men and cngincmcn idle this win ter were bark at work. The principal problem of the local employment office is han dling application of transient, cas ual and unskilled workers, Mrs. Bender said. Almost no encourage ment can be offered these appli cants. Highway construction work ers are hired almost exclusively by the contractors through the unions', she said, and there appears to be no other major demand for labor In sight. The employment office is cooper ating with the Dunsmuir Lions Club in seeking summer jobs for youths. Businessmen and house -holders are being asked to keep this work force in mind and con tribute to developing work expe rience for the youth of the com munity.

GUSTAVSON County Extension Agent Oregon shoppers are constantly faced wih an array of advertis ing on wonder foods, mineral ton ics, and nature foods. Dr. Fred erick J. Stare, Harvard School of Public Health, and an outstand ing spokesman in the field of nu trition advocates that good food from grocery stores be used in stead of more expensive "health foods. "Pseudoscientists, he says. "are constantly holding up prog ress in nutrition programs with talk of being 'food specialists,' health teachers or natural farm ers. Not all foods fads are harmful. Yogurt, wheat germ, stone-ground flour are good. If you like them. eat them. But don't think they are wonder foods. A good varied diet available from foods that any grocery store can provide will pro duce just as good nutritional health as any and all 'health foods' and natural foods' at half the price. "Refined and processed foods are a favorite target of the food specialist, who would have us be lieve these foods are not nutri tious. Truth is that they play an important part m the overall nu tritional health of people, and many of them are enriched or for tified with certain key nutrients. Dr. Stare goes on to say that en riched white bread, for instance, is no better than brown bread or vice versa. He says they have iden tical food value in the diet and suggests that consumers choose the one that tastes better to them A final warning for the health authority: "Remember, the food quack has something to sell. It may be book, a magazine, a series of health talks or a special food prep aration. Whatever it is. he's out to line his pocket with your money. Don t be taken in. no one food is essential to health. Some specific nutrients are, and by eating a varied diet available at any gro cery store, you will get them." ROBBERY The home of the vacationing Adolph Zamsky family at 104 Washington Street was burglarized sometime last week, it was report ed to police today. Entrance to the house was gained by breaking a rear window. The place was ran sacked. Until the family returns, it will not be known what has been taken.
