ber 10, 1895, in Cataract, now

Mr. Sloan ranched for a number
of years in his early life and was

To Hear Pair
The Klamath Unitarian Fellow
ship's summer program of guest
speakers will continue this week
when Mr. and Mrs. Arthur Cur
rier of Palo Alto, California, will
lie featured at 8 p.m., Friday at
the Klamath Art Center.
Mr. and Mrs. Currier have spent
this summer in Chiloquin in charge
for Klamath Indian Reservation
youngsters. They are sponsored by
the American Friends Service
-. Committee. The Curriers and their
three children will leave soon for
their home in California, where
Currier is a junior high school
teacher.
Their work at the reservation has
.' Included a swimming program at
Denton Park, field trips to interest
ing places in this area, and a vari
ety of other recreational activities
for Indian .children.
Unitarians and all those inter-
'..csted are invited. Coffee will be
. served at 7:30.
The lockout affected the for-
hire trucking industry which
moves 75 per cent of the West's
truck freight and does a $2,500,000
a day business. It did not affect
such products as gasoline, beer,
milk and bread, which ara han
dled by private fleets.
Truckers said they will deliver
freight now in transit, but will
accept no further shipments. Per
ishables, medical supplies and
government cargo will be allowed
to move.
The tie-up affected the states of
Arizona, California, Colorado, Ida
ho, Montana, Nevada, New Mex
ico, Oregon, Utah, Washington
and Wyoming.
the employers ordered the lock-1
out Monday in retaliation for a
strike of 2.3o0 Teamsters in Cen
tral California and Western Nev
ada. The Teamsters are seeking
higher pay.
An employer spokesman said
that by Thursday, all long-line
hauling will have ended in the 11
states. This in turn will cause a
halt of local drayase.
Southern Pacific and Santa Fe
railroads announced they would
accept no merchandise for local
truck delivery except in areas not
touched by the strike-lockout.
This would mean several coun
ties in the San Francisco Bay
Area, which have either signed
a new contract or are presently
negotiating one.
The Central Valley Teamsters,
belonging to Teamster Joint Coun
cil 38, demanded the same wages
as those recently granted drivers
in several San Francisco Bay
counties.
Pickup and delivery drivers in
the cities of Bakersfield, Visalia,
Fresno, Modesto, Stockton1, Sacra
mento, Eureka, Marysville and
Reno now get $2.25 an hour, com
pared to a range of $2.45 to $2.72
in 'Oakland.
But employers insisted that
Teamsters belonging to Joint
Council 38 were covered by
master western agreement signed
last May. That agreement called
for a 35-cent hourly package in
crease in three years.
Long lines drivers accepted the
settlement but pickup and delivery
drivers in Joint Council 38 reject
ed it. They wanted parity with
Oakland drivers.
When pickets appeared in the
nine California and Nevada cities
Monday, the employers immed
iately ordered the lockout in ef
fect. They said a strike against
any one employer was a strike
against all.

WASHINGTON (API - A half i
dozen recent uses of a 169-year-old
law to justify secrecy in govern
ment were listed today by 'inves
tigators for the House Govern
ment Information subcommittee.
Dependence on this old statute
for federal secrecy authority
would be wiped out under a bill
now awaiting President fcisen
hower's signature.
But whether fciscnnower win
sign the bill, veto it or let it be
come law without his signature
remained a tight secret itself. The
President has until tomorrow mid
night to act.
The 1789 statute empowers de
partment heads to make rules on
the use of department records.
The one-sentence bill, backed by
the ' news industry, would amend
this to say the law docs not au
thorize withholding information
from the public.
Subcommittee Chairman Jonn
E. Moss (D-Calif) contends the old
law was intended simply as a fed
eral housekeeping measure, but
that it has been twisted by fed
eral officials over the years into
claimed authority for secrecy.
Executive departments general
ly opposed Moss' bill on grounds
it would upset established proce
dure. Atty. Gen. William Rogers
took a yes-and-no stand in his tcs
timony, saying he would not ob
ject to the measure it it were
amended to recognize what he
called the executive s constitution
al privilege to withhold informa
tion. Congress did not agree to
this change.
Moss subcommittee files showed
these six recent instances where
the old statute has been cited as
justifying secrecy:
1. The National Lanor Heiations
Grade 2 It per bushel
3 3t " "
" U on basis of test weight . . 6f M
5 on basis of test veight . . 9i " "
Two cents ($002) per bushel on Soft Red Winter and White Wheat
except the varieties Baart and Bluestem of the eub-elass Hard White.
Committee Chiefs Report
During United Fund Meet
Botulism Poison
Menaces Wildlife
The Tule Lake and Lower Klam
ath National wildlife refuges are
experiencing what may become a
serious problem with duck sick
" ness this year.
Botulism poisoning, which af
flicts waterfowl, made its appear
ance somewhat earlier this year.
To date, 6,900 afflicted birds have
hcen nicked up by refuge crews.
" The sick birds are treated in the
refuge duck hospital and released
to the holding pond as soon as
their recovery permits.
Intense electrical storms accom
panied by high winds have been
frequent this summer. Increase in
iho occurrence of duck sickness
has followed these storms. The'
high winds tend to expose and re-
flood potential hazard areas which)
may be responsible for increasing,
losses. . i
Waterfowl populations are build
ing up on the Klamath Basin
! refuges. The inventory of August
s showed 435.000 waterfowl on
Tule Lake and Lower Klamath
refuges. Populations can be ex
pected to reach several million!
during the peak of the fall migra-j
tion.

Reports from committee chair
men of the forthcoming joint fund
drive of the United Fund and Red
Cross, plus an introduction to the
activities of the American Social
Hygiene Association, were on the
program of Monday's board meet
ing of the VF, heia at me wu-
lard Hotel.
Guest speaker was Donald A
Clarke, San Jose, western regional
representative of the ASHA, who
gave a brief description of his or
ganization s work.
The ASHA. which participates in
the local United Fund through the
Oregon United Appeal, was lound-
ed 45 years ago to combat social
breakdown through strengthening
the family, Clarke said.
The organization's program com
prises research, education, and as
sistance to community organiza
tions. Among the ASHA research pro
grams are surveys, 95 per cent of
them done at the request ot mil
itary authorities, of organized vice,
particularly prostitution, in various
cities. (Klamath Falls has been the
subject of several such surveys
over the vears. Clarke said. "Your
showing has been good for the
past five years." he added.)
The association also does spec
ial research studies of significant
social problems, such as one now
being done on adolescent behavior,
particularly sex patterns. This
TAXES DUE
Esther Newell, chief deputy tax
collector, reminded Klamath Coun
ty property owners today that
fourth-quarter taxes for 1957-58 be

will be charged after that date.
PARACHUTE JUMP
LAKEVIEW Pvt. Edward L.
Richardson, 22, son of Mr. and
Mrs. John W. Richardson, Route
8, Lakeview, Oregon, recently
cnmDleted a tactical nighttime par
achute jump at Ft. Campbell,
Kontuckv. Army authorities an
nounced. Richardson, a 1953 grad
uate of Lakeview High hchool, en
tered the Army in September 1956
after attending Oregon Technical
Institute. He completed basic
training at Ft. Lewis, Washington
and now is a fire team leader in
Company D, 327th Infantry.
study is being made because there
has been an increase in the vener
eal disease rate in recent years
the problem is one which partic
ularly interests the AaHA, which
annually makes a nationwide sur
vey of the venereal disease situation.
The education program concen
trates on training teachers so that
they may instruct in family life
education, and also on the publi
cation of informative booklets on
social problems. The ASHA pub
lished 75 titles and distributed 400,
000 pieces of literature last' year.
As far as assistance to commun
ity organizations and to govern
ment agencies is concerned, this in
cludes assistance in combatting
problems revealed by ASHA re
search or otherwise; sometimes the
association finds itself in the po
sition of tactical adviser in a cam
paign in which entrenched inter
ests, possibly within local govern
ment, are supporting organized
vice.
At the same time, the association
is primarily an advisory, preven
tive group; it does not do "so
cial work" or provide for indi
vidual treatment, nor does it have
local chapters. The organization
supports the federative principles
exemplified by United Fund or
ganizations; the Oregon United Ap
peal has approved a request of
$116 for ASHA from the Klamath
Falls drive.
The meeting was presided over
by Rollin Cantrall, United Fund
president. Richard Laudenschlag-
fund drive chairman, called
for the reports of the chairmen
of the various campaign divisions.
RELIGIOUS DEGREE
Minta Louise King of Klamath
Falls will receive a Master of Re
ligious Education degree from
Texas Christian University Friday,
August 22, it was announced to
day. Miss King, daughter of Mr,
and Mrs. Willis' H. King of 3450
Crest Street, is one of 233 summer
graduates at TCU.
Board, in a Sept. 3, 1957, ruling
involving the Great Atlantic &
Pacific 'Tea Co., said the old law
authorized its regulation on pro
ducing records. Moss asked how
this law could apply to the NLRB,
an independent agency, when it
specifically lists only the 10
regular executive departments.
NLRB still has given no explanation.
2. An Agriculture Department
regulation governing departmen
tal cooperation on film produc
tions, including a requirement that
scripts be submitted for censor
ship. 1 his was revised last year
after Moss raised objections.
3. A customs regulation slap
ping secrecy on data on Imports
in the Great Lakes area. This was
revised last May after protests by
.moss and others.
4. World War 11-born secrecy
restrictions on data on nonsecu
rity exports. This was revised last
August after protests.
5. Farmers Home Administra
tion restrictions on data on appli
cations for loans. This still is in
effect.
6. Rural Electrification Admin
istration withholding of data on
applications for loans. This, too,
still is in effect.
Rep. Clare E. Hoffman (Mich),
the lone Republican on the three-
man Moss subcommittee, accused
the group of glorifying Moss at
taxpayers' expense through its ac
tions. There was no immediate
comment from Moss.
Hoffman also alleged that the
subcommittee staff leaked infor
mation to newsmen in violation of
committee agreements.
Hoffman s statement was in re
ply to a report last week by the
subcommittee majority which
charged lederal officials are
smothering the public's right to
know under a secrecy blanket.
lhe Democrats Moss and Rep.
Dante B. Fascell of Florida also
criticized a Commerce Depart
ment biography of Secretary Sin
clair Weeks as glorification of a
federal official at public expense.
