PAGE 4 A HERALD AND NEWS. KLAMATH FALLS. OREGON SUNDAY. JULY 13. 1958 FRANK JENKINS Editor BILL JENKTN'S Managing Editor FLOYD WYNNE City Editor Iirivrr Training By FLOYD L. WYNNE I note that ttie driver training program at KUIIS has been abarv cloned, at least temporarily. A board member made the motion to continue the program at Monday's board meeting but the motion died for. lack of a second. I find myself in complete sym palhy with those who refused to second the motion. One of the ills of our school system at the moment, not just here, but elsewhere, appears to be the fact that the taxpayers are being hit to provide services for the few ralher than the many. Driver training falls in this cat egory. The state provides a $20 per student fund for those schools participating in the program, but that money, in turn, comes from the taxpayer by one means or an other. Certainly there arc merits to such a program, and those who advocate it can find many rea sons why it should he continued However, if we are to curtail the continued sharp upward spir al in costs of education then we must begin to also curtail some of the programs themselves. This curtailment must begin in the courses or programs that we can consider slrictly nonessential. Driver training is one of these. In turn, if we arc to curtail some of the marginal operations of our educational structure, then par ents must he willing in turn to pick up their share of the load. Teaching a youngster to drive should be somelhing that is done by parents. I, for one, will be more than willing, in fact, I will Insist, that when the time comes, I will be responsible for teaching my youngslers lo drive. The driver training program is Just another example of a situa tion where parents have been con lent to let the schools take care of what should bo their own re sponsibility. I don't think lhat the abandon ment of the driver training pro gram will work any hardship on the youngsters who want to drive a car. They still must pass the same examination that adults do In or der to obtain a license and any young man or woman who wants a license earnestly enough will find it no great (rouble to learn the necessary rudiments of driving and driving safety. It isn't (he lgnoran( driver, nor even the careless driver lhat causes the majority of our acci dents today. It's high speed . . . and equipment failures. I find myself in complete sym pathy with the board members who declined to lake action on the driver training program, and con gratulate them on the first step toward sale, sane financial admin istration of our schools.

JORDAN, M.D. Written for NEA Service Thanks lo many correspondents who have written me following the publication of previous columnn on warts, I now have quite a coiled tion in my file ot strange cures and other interesting comments on this peculiar disorder of the skin 1 do not doubt that there are more strange notions about the cure and cause of warts than any other human disorder. It is impossible to quote from all of the letters, but one man wrote that when he was 10 years old (he is 82 now) his left hand was a mass of warts. A school mate told him to steal a piece of red flannel and a piece of raw pork, to fold the pork in the flannel and bury it in (he ground under a stone. The writer said that he did as directed and, strange lo say, in three days the warts disappeared and he has had no more for the next 72 years. Another correspondent said that he had trouble wilh t w o warts on his face and a lot under his amis and back. He asked many peoplo for a cure, but no one seemed to know. He has asked me lo suggcsl a remedy. This is more unusual than the first letler, be cause it seems nearly everyone has a pet cure for warls and arc not bashful about passing it on. The fact lhat warls disappear alter so many different kinds of treatment even including burial of an object is particularly as tonishing, because warts arc al most cerlainly caused by viruses which are small living bodies too tiny lo see under the ordinary mi croscope. Why a condition caused by vi ruses should disappear following so many kinds of treatments lor none at all) is truly extraordinary. The so-called "seed wart" which occurs on the hands is the most common type. Children are more likely to have warts than grown ups. Warts can be spread from one part of the body to another, but there is no basis for the old su perstition that handling toads will cause warls. Painting wilh cerlain dyes, sev eral kinds of oinlments, freezing with carbon dioxide snow and hurning with diathermy needles have all been used with success. One of Ihe treatments consists ot the use of injections containing a heavy metal called bismuth. Warts also disappear in most cases after X-ray treatment. But the most astonishing treat ment is hy the use of suggestion. How (he mind can have an effect on a virus disease is a mystery. It has long been known that warts which may have been present for year can disappear suddenly and completely lollow-ing suggestion. This has been continued by sci entific observers, .lust how lo go about llns kind of treatment is not settled and some doctors remain skeptical. But it seems certain that it does happen. Warts 'except plantar warls on the feet) can hardly be considered serious, hut they are troublesome and peculiarly interesting in their behavior. Pogo Vs AMJtfT MwlvIM WITH WfStA.

By RAMOND ANDERSON Richmond Times-Dispatch WARSAW (AP)-You don't need border guards to tell you when you've crossed the frontier he tweon Communist Czechoslovakia and Communist Poland. You can sense it from your fellow passen gers. For 10 hours from Prague to llv Polish border our train was full of subdued, unsmiling Czechs. Thirty minutes after we crossed, everything was laughter and lively conversation. I had breakfast on the train wilh an exuberant Pole from Kra kow just after we crossed the border. We got acquainted after he shared with me an important discovery there was water (or shaving in Ihe next car. Our breakfast was two ham sandwiches, two glasses of coffee and two large glasses of vodka The vodka was first. And it had lo be "do dna" (bottoms up). A challenge. It's wilh a sense of duly well done that I can report the Pole gave up first. But he stopped just in time to save me from fiery as phyxiation. Each glass was still about a quarter full. While we ate, we talked politics an eternal subject in present- day Poland striking a common language in a mixture of German and Russian. The conversation went like this: American "How do you hap pen lo speak such good German and Russian,?" Pole "I was a 'guest' in both countries. First Ihe Russians cap tured me in M3!) and then the Germans in 1!)42." 'How long were you in Czecho slovakia now?" "Long enough lo make it worth while." He grinned and waved his arm at his suitcases. American "What do you think of Czechs?" Pole "They work heller than Poles but Ihey don't die as brave ly." "How is life in Poland now?" "It's a lol belter since Gomulka kicked the Russians out of War saw. It's still not perfect but it was terrible while Slalin was iilivc." "Have the Polish people heard of the help the United Stales has been giving Poland for the last 18 months?" Yes. But it really isn't much help. We have to pay it back with interest. I know America has been giving money to the world for years and can't keep it up. But Poles arc your friends. You should help us now." The Pole told wilh relish how Wladyslaw Gomulka. once nearly hot as a Titoist, regained lead ership of the Polish Communist party in Ihe October 1!)5K revolt. Gomulka is a relish national ist." he said. "That's why he is so popular even though he is a Communist. All real Poles are na tinnalisls. They haled the Moscow Pbles who came in with the Red irmy's baggage and look over the country.' A waitress entered our compart ment. The Pole ordeied another round of vodka. The waitress brought il. Luckily, this time the glasses were smaller. "Do dna." Waitress "W here is Ihe Krechman going?" Pole "He is not French.

VH Mail ling A veteran selling nis home and GI mortgage should first contact the Veterans Administration if he wishes to be released from lia bility to the government on his GI loan. Such a release protects the vet eran in the event the new purch aser defaults in payments, VA ex plained. VA pointed out that a 1956 law allows veterans to be released from liability to the government, provid ed the new purchaser meets credit requirements and assumes the vet eran's obligations to the govern ment on the GI loan. The new purchaser need not be a veteran, VA said, and the gov ernment's guaranty of the loan is not altected by releasing the vet eran from his liability. In most states Ihe only cost of obtaining the release is a small fee, usually not more than S5, tor a credit report on the pro posed buyer, VA said. Release of the veteran from li ability to the government does not automatically release him from li ability to the lender. However, VA will furnish the pro spective buyer's credit report to the lender, and otherwise assist any veleran who wishes to seek his lender's release. VA makes no charge for (his service, although the lender may require Ihe payment of a nominal fee for the processing of his re lease. QllOlK By United Press International WASHINGTON Chairman L.

Fauhus is prepar ing to ask the U.S. Supreme Court lo review an injunction which forced him to remove National Guardsmen from Central High School in Little Rock last fall Attorneys for Faubus asked the clerk of the Federal Court of Ap peals here to prepare a record of the case for that purpose. "We are doing that," said Robert C. Tucker, Ihe court clerk. The injunction, which prohibits Fauhus from interfering with inte gration at the school, was granted last fall by Federal District Judge Ronald E. Davies. It subsequently was approved by the Court of Ap peals, which censured Faubus for actions which, if permitted to stand, Ihe Court said, could lead only to "a complete breakdown of government. When the injunction was granted Faubus withdrew Na tional Guardsmen who had pre vented nine Negro children from enrolling. Rioting followed outside the school and the federal govern ment sent troops into Little Rock to enforce the court order. The Court of Appeals will con duct a hearing in St. Louis Aug. 4 on another phase of complex liti gation stemming from the Little Rock situation. That hearing will be on an or der by Federal District Judge Harry J. Lemley at Little Rock suspending integration at the school for 2'i years. The three judges designated to hear the appeal, brought by. the National Assn. for the Advance ment of Colored People, have in dicated they will rule on it before the fall school term begins. The suspension order was requested by the Little Rock school board.

V UF Exploration In Fed Of Killing Diseases Cited The problem of meeting the needs for research in Ihe fields of heart, cancer and other forms of killing diseases has been one that the local chapter of United Fund has been exolonng in recent weeks. Ralph Hemmcscn. president of the Klamath County United Fund, indicated that a special committee appointed to study this problem is expected to make its "report to the United Fund Board of Direct ors at its regular Monday noon meeting at the Willard Hotel. Hemmesch repeated a recent statement by John A. Greene, Cleveland, president of the United Community Funds and Councils of America, that some 2,200 united community campaigns last year raised a 'total of 412 million dol lars to support local, state and national health and welfare serv ices. Greene expressed the belief that givers would support the new pro gram of research on benail ot tne whole man with generosity and enthusiasm. He w e 1 c o m e d the newly an nounced Medical Research Pro- Group Wants Policy Change SACRAMENTO (AP) The Cal ifornia Water Commission wants the federal government to make a policy change whereby more than one agency would be allowed to build multi-purpose dams. Commission Chairman (.lair Hill Friday released a letter written last month to the Federal Budget Bureau asking lhat the Corps of Engineers as well as the Bureau ot Reclamation oe al lowed to build such dams The corps is presently restrict ed to building dams in Lantor- nia's Central Valley that are exclusively for flood control. Federal policy limits construc tion of multi-purpose dams in the valley to the Reclamation Bu reau. Hill recommended in his letter that the corps be allowed to con struct multi-purpose dams when they are intended primarily for Hood control. He said in his letler that the commission believed the practice of having only one agency build multi-purpose projects has and will continue to delay federal water development in California." Hill said the Budget Bureau has indicated it will consider the request. CANINE HERO HUNTINGTON, W. Va.
