PAGE SIX 3 FRANK JENKINS Editor BILL JENKINS Managing Editor FLOYD WYNNE Cily Editor MAURICE MILLER Circulation Mgr Ph. TU 4-4752 Defense By FLORENCE JENKINS The upsurge of interest in Civil Defense on a countywide basis in Klamath County makes a news re lease from the American Institute of Decorators even more interest ing. I This month in Chicago at the Merchandise Mart, the American institute of Decorators is cooper rating with the United States Office of Civil and Defense Mobilization in presenting "The Family Room of Tomorrow." Marc T. Nielsen, past national president and fellow of the Insti tute, has designed the interior of a family "fallout" shelter as a game room and guest room which also accommodates a family of from four to six persons during an emergency. . Thrmish careful utilization of space, Mr. Nielsen has provided tn 8!i x 12-foot area with sleeping miinnipnt for five nersons. a lava tory, a sink with a 40-gallon water storage capacity, food for a two week emergency period, cooking facilities and first aid supplies There is storage area for clothing readins matter, a transistot television set, a Conclrad radio anH nther essentials. A bicycle, says the report, serves the dual purpose of acting as exerciser and at the same time ventilating the room. (The venti lating angle is not explained in the release.) This family room will tour the country after its initial appaarance which concludes on January ma. In thanking the Institute for its contribution, the Hon. Leo A. Hcc-gh, director of the office of Civil and Defense Mobilization, slates: "It is not only the policy of the government, but the personal be lief of our government leaders that everv homo should have shelter from radioactive fallout. Thousands :of people around the country al readv are buildine shelters of var ious types to accommodate their families and protect them not only from fallout but Irom natural dis asters such as hurricanes and tor nadoes." A subdued color scheme greys, browns, beiges and sky blue makes a soothing background for this new family room and creates an illusion of space m Iho overall design, the release concludes Wosterii Hicks Klamath Falls (To the Editor) Couldn't miss the opportunity ;to gloat a little for us Westerners. - Seems that 1 recall not too many moons ago when New Yorkers and Easterners were laughing at us out here when the Giants and the Dodgers moved to the West Coast ; They gloated and snickered in : their beards and said we'd never : win a pennant becauso people on the West Coast were hicks and couldn't support big league teams Well, in 1959, we won the World Series, and it seems that one of our West Coast teams just ran - away with a Rose Bowl game after being six and a half point '. underdog. And the West just won . the East-West game. : I'd say that's pretty good fur ; a bunch of hicks. Maybe what the ; Easterners need is not so much a shot in the arm, as the need of a few hicks back there like we have here in the good old West ' I'm so glad I'm a West Coast hick. Mis. C. W.

Wounds left by Britain's disas trous invasion of Suez in 1950 still are far from healed, and a new political rumpus is expected in the wake of this week s pub lication of former Prime Minister Sir Anthony Eden's Suez mem oirs. Previous "inside stories" have caused brief flareups but these are expected to be as noth ing compared to Eden's own version of one of the most con troversial incidents in British history. Look for the Japanese govern ment to come under increasing pressure to restore economic and cultural relations with Communist China. The Reds broke off con tact with Japan last year in a huff when Japan refused to com bine trade with diplomatic rela tions. At least two high-ranking politicians with their eye on the presidency of the ruling Lib eral Democratic party and the automatic premiership are ad- vocating economic and cultural relations with the Peiping regime. It's a popular issue and likely to be the only major one after the U. S.-Japan security treaty is signed. Congressional Mail By B. L. LIVINGSTONE WASHINGTON (API Familiar I signs and portents herald the re turn of Congress to Capitol Hill. Executive communications, for instance. After three months with practi cally nobody to write to, agency oflicials are again busily com municating their hopes and aspira tions to legislators. Holurning congressmen hardly had lime to hang up their travel souvenirs last week when the mailman was at the door with the lirst of the new stream of execu tive communications. It was from Secretary of Agri culture Ezra Taft Benson, and said he hoped Congress would do something about alien adult honey bees. Benson suggested Congress amend the Honeybee Act to pie vent the importation of adult mem bers of the honeybee families of A. (for Apis) Indica, A. Floica and A. Dorsalc. They have miles, Benson com plained. This is no joke, Benson assured Congress, because it could practi cally wipe out the honey industry in the United .Stales. Another sure sign Congress is back in business is the return ot televised reports to the people. These are transcribed TV shows in which members of Congress are Iho sole stars. These reports are put on video tape and sent back to home town TV stations for broadcast. A standard show usually goes something like this: Announcer: "Well, we're cer tainly glad to have you back, sen ator. Senator: "Well, I'm certainly glad to be back." Announcer: "Yes. sir, it's good to have you hack. Senator: "Yup, good to be back." To the less sensitive, there are other sure signs that the mighty are again in residence the atti tude of the Capitol police. Salutes are again in evidence when a congressional license plate SHORT RIBS OCAS N f COKE HERE, GOICK! . he's plasin coumsX I AND INDIAN Av-Ain: J HERALD AND comes in view. Reserved parking places are carefully protected from tax-paying tourists. Discreet notices appear, such as: "Effective today, the Capitol police will look with disfavor on persons who do not observe 'do not enter' signs." Wags have suggested posting of an additional sign saying: "Quiet 80 billion dollars at work." Tight Moin'.v By SAM DAWSON AP Business News Analyst NEW YORK (AP)-Tight money which seems likely to be around for awhile is affecting the na tion's banks in four ways: 1. It is making it harder for them to find money to lend at a time when the steel settlement seems sure to set off a new boom that should bring a bigger demand for loans to business. 2. It is causing them to raise some interest rates again and to talk at least of the need to hike others. 3 It is fattening their profits from the loans they are making at higher interest charges. 4. It is leading them to seek new lendable funds by paying their stockholders In part by stock divi dends to conserve cash, by tak ing a loss on the sale of older securities now priced far below par, and by luring new depositors by offering better returns on sav ings. Bankers see little chance that the demand for loans will ease, except for the seasonal flow back to the banks of funds in January and February when preholiday loans are repaid. Instead they ex pect the demand to expand be cause of the desire of industry to build up stocks and to step up ac tivities now that steel labor peace is assured. They see little chance that the Federal Reserve will relax its tight money policy. In fact, many bankers look for another hike in the discount rale as soon as up coming Treasury financing and the seasonal factors are out of the way. The hope ot ease that some see in President Eisenhower's fore cast of a four-billion-dollar Treas ury surplus in the fiscal year starting next July is widely dis counted in banking circles. First, the surplus would be some time off. Second, there arc three big ifs attached to it: If Congress doesn't raise Us spending sights; if Congress doesn't lift part of the tax burden; if business booms for a year or more so that Treasury collections from corporate and in dividual income taxes swell its lake to 84 billion dollars. Any one of these, or combina tion of (hem, could shrink the hoped for surplus, and perhaps wipe it out. Bankers also note that the new budget would call for higher spending than the last so that a surplus would depend entirely on a big gain in revenue. Ignorance By HAL BOYLE NEW YORK (API-Things columnist might never know if he didn't open his mail: Despite Iho march of science, there is still an appalling amount of ignorance in the world.

Boredom is one of civilized man's greatest enemies. A study ot 300 men and women who com plained of chronic tiredness dis closed only 20 per cent had any organic ailment. In most of the ethers fatigue was the result of simple boredom. You can win money by belting your friends they don't know the name of George Washington's fa vorite horse. It was Blue Skin. Here's a health tip for barflies. A teacher of orthopedic surgery at Northwestern University re ports that "hooking your foot on the rail when you stand at a bar straightens your spine and reduces strain, thus making you more comfortable." Do you feel you are losing back bone as you grow older? Well, in a way you arc. Y'ou are born with 33 vertebrae, but fusion reduces them later in life to 26. A pleasant custom: In Scandi navia, members of a family line up their shoes in a row before going to bed on Christmas Eve. This signifies their equal love for one another and their desire to live in peace together in the com ing year.

A veteran Oakridge educator, Paul S. Elliott, said the state should pay everything it requires, It now pays, overall through Ore gon districts, about 39 per cent ol operations costs. He recalled when he was in school nearly 60 years ago. The teacher," Elliott said, "was custodian and the two out. houses were cleaned twice a year by members of the school board." In those days, he added, the lo. cal district was in complete charge but now state standards govern all teachers, curriculum and buildings. Leonard Mayfield, Medford, said the state should pay for all of its required program and 49 per cent of construction costs. He added that some local control would be insured by the 49 per cent limit on state construction payments. Among possible means dis cussed for financing increased state aid were a sales tax, a tim ber assessment and broadening of the income tax base. The hearing wound up a two-day committee session.
