(UPI) Yugoslavia's refusal to become compromise candidate compli cated the deadlocked East-West battle for a U. N. Security Coun cil seat Friday. Poland, running with Russia's backing, and Turkey, ' supported by the United Stales, went through 25 rounds of voting with neither able to muster the two thirds vote required for election to one of three two-year scats be coming vacant Jan. 1. Ecuador and Ceylon were elected on the first ballot. The General Assembly s p e n t most of Monday and Tuesday in fruitless efforts to break the Polish-Turkish stalemate and then suspended further voting until next Monday. There had been hope that Yugo slavia might ' become a compro mise candidate acceptable to both Russia and the United States. But the Yugoslav delegation late Thursday declined any candidacy. Greece was elected to the "Eastern European" seat in 1952 and Turkey in 1954, both' with U. S.' backing. In 1956, Russia ran Poland against the Philippines. ' the American candidate. After four deadlocked ballots, the So viet Union switched its support to Yugoslavia as a compromise can didate. Yugoslavia and the Philippines ran the ballot total to 34 before it was agreed to break the im passe by drawing lots.

Frank Tucker and Jim Lattie of KOTI-TV were astounded at the interest shown in the meeting and bv the high level and quality .of community spirit displayed. This was the third in a series of informal visits to outlying com munities in the county. The cham ber group had expected to have lunch with Chiloquin mayor, Bill Barnes, Fred Markwardt. H. Za- koji, and perhaps a half dozen other community leaders. Instead, there were 40 to 45 who turned out for the meeting! From all reports, ihese enthusiastic citizens of Chil oquin aren't going to let any grass grow under their feet. They are all fired up lo do everything they can lo improve their community and their schools, to lind the means of financing a building pro gram, and to form their own chamber of commerce group. The local chamber officials promised the Chiloquin group all possible assistance in realizing their goals. Visits to Bonanza and to the Chemult-Gilchrist Crescent area will wind up the series of infor mal exchange-of-information - and ideas meetings which certainly will go in the record as a highly successful and gratifying venture Sitting through 12 committee meetings, as I have done this week, can be a broadening expe rience, in more ways than one Because here was the basic prin ciplc of any chamber of commerce being nut into practice . . . mem bers of the business and profes sional community voluntarily giv ing of their time, ideas, experience and talents to heln achieve togeth er things for the betterment of!1 the community which they could not accomplish aioni. Man oi uie. nary, of course, and long hours of study, research and more discus sion and exchange of ideas will be necessary before solutions will be found to some of the problems such as arriving at some equitable and practical method of financing city street improvements or de veloping a mosquito abatement program for the entire Basin area liut you have only to see the vigor and seriousness with which these knotty problems are attacked to know that sooner or later solutions are bound to come. . . All members of the Klamath County Chamber of Commerce will soon be receiving in the mail a proposal for amending the consti lulion and bylaws to change the chamber's fiscal year from its present one corresponding to Ihc calendar year to one extending from October to October. The board of 'directors, and the execu live committee frel the now fiscal year could strengthen the cham ber's continuity of effort since the customary summer let-down committee activity would come at the end of the year instead of in the middle. Oflicers would be elected in September and there would follow nine to 10 months of uninterrupted activity. A ballot for the election of five new members of the board of di rectors should come along in the same mail with the proposal to amend the constitution and by laws. If the members approve the change, it would become effective October 1, 1!0. People Read SPOT ADS. you are m Mm o Congress makes the Bonds you buy and Bonds, you already own better thanever!
