He defines the course as "a sort

mantics. It deals with jumping
to conclusions," preventing "clos
ing of the mind," giving and get
ting information, making assign
ments and corrections, managing
people who are poor listeners, and
getting a group to talk effectively
together.
The course was developed by
Dr. Irving J. Lee, former profes
sor of English and semantics at
Northwestern University, for em
ployes of Bell Telephone of Illinois.
The class will meet each Tues
day for nine more sessions from
7 until 10 p.m. at Klamath Un
ion High School. Tuition is $31.50
A handbook costs a dollar.
Another course, "Human Rela
tions," was planned but dropped

R. FRANK TUCKER
expected to see so much going on
down here, or to find business so
flourishing.
Such a notion is not unusual
among visitors from the far north,
says Chamber of Commerce Man
ager R. Frank Tucker. Too many
travelers from the people part of
Oregon expect to find Klamath
Falls a tiny town tucked away in
a remote section of the state, iso
lated from commerce, trade, and
progress itself.
They all feel different when they
get down Jiere.
From the chamber point of view,
there should be even greater sur
prises for such onlookers in the
next decade.
Tucker foresees for Klamath
County in the next lo years:
A broadening wood processing
industry utilizing both wet and dry
materials for manufacturing pulp,
fibreboard and similar wood by
products. Johns-Manville got the
idea started, and the industry
should expand rapidly.
Introduction of metal fabricat
ing and manufacturing plants, in
cluding the now-remote prospect of
developing titanium.
Electco-cheiiBcal and electro-
metallurgical plants utilizing wood
chemicals and minerals, through
river and lake power projects.
Food processing and food man
ufacturing plants located at the
source, e.g. potatoes.
Great expansion of the tourist
business prompted by more vaca
tion time and federal superhigh
ways from the East, and centered
locally about Crater Lake National
Park.
Construction of new schools,
businesses, and homes to accom
modate the area's growing population.
Tucker supports his view of the
future by looking into the past
He backs his contentions with sta
tislics.
For years, he said, the economy
of Klamath County had been based
upon lumber and agriculture. This
was a good thing. The heart of
our economy was diversified, and
seldom were both elements in a
slump at the same time.
This stability produced the high
est per-capita income in Oregon
Tucker said. Fortunately, the ccon
omy still is based on these di
verse activities, and both are
healthy.
Added lo this base was Air Force
reactivation ot Mngsley Held,
which has had a tremendous im
pact on community economic life.
By January 1 a year ago, the
Air Force had stationed 250 of
ficers, men, and civilian employes
here. In the months between
January 1, 1959 and May 15, 1959,
the personnel total was up to 1,300
persons, with a payroll of half a
million dollars a month.
Now, Tucker said, 290 Air Force
families live in Falcon Heights
near the base and another 550 Air
Force families live in what he
calls the Klamath Falls Metropoli
tan Area.
This addifion Tucker regards as
icing on the cake. The cake it
self is getting better and bigger.
Through 1955, the chamber man
ager said, growth in Klamath
County was gradual and steady.
The first major spurt in growth
came that year when the Air
Force began rehabilitating the
World War II Navy Base at Kings
ley Field.
Growth continued, and by 1958
bank debits (written checks'
reached an annual all-time high
of $366 million up $91 million
from 1953.
Last year bank debits hit a new
peak of $403 million, an increase
of $35 million in one year alone.
Other statistics, comparing last
year with figures five years ear
lier (in parentheses):
Building permits within Klam
ath Falls city limits, $2,580,000
($1,392,000); power customers, 16,
274 (14.314); parking meter re
ceipts, $63,068 ($52,698); postal re
ceipts, $117,159 ($297,611); phone
connections, more than 15,000 (11,
715); water customers, 9.088
(8.249).
The balance between lumbering
and agriculture has been stabilized
even more. Tucker said, through
three factors, the Johns-Manville
plant, Air Force activation of
King.sley Field, and hydro electric
development projects.
In the first two, the chamber of
commerce had a leading role, he
said. In the latter, it had a signifi
cant substantiating role.
"We have very definite results
from programs launched by the
chamber,'.' he observed. "Now is
the time for people to act and
take advantage of these things."
