Morse Sees Demo Victory GRANTS PASS (AP) - The Democrats will win in 1960 if they hold the human values backed by the lale President Franklin D. Roosevelt, Sen. Wayne Morse (D Ore) told a packed house here Thursday night. Morse landed Thursday morning at Medlord, spoke Ihere at lunch and then addressed the FDR Memorial Dinner here that drew more than 200. who could be seated and many more who were turned away. The state's senior senator made it clear he is out to win in Ore gon s May presidential primary as a favorite son candidate for the I960 Democratic presidential nomination. "When Wayne Morse is pushed into a fight I don't run away," he told his audience. He said he had nothing to do with putting his name oh the ballot and did not seek the favorite son role. Morse warned his audience that the Democrats will lose if they turn reactionary and "try and out reactionary the Republicans." He called for federal aid to ed ucation bolh for teacher support and class room building. The Re publicans, he contended, want only federal aid for building class rooms. Turning to the talk by Soviet Russian Premier Nikita Khrush chev before the Senate Forcien Relations Committee, Morse de clared: "This is no ignorant peasant. Then get it out of your head if you think there is not a high mentality in this man." Morse described Khrushchev as completely ruthless and amoral but afraid of a nuclear war. He said Khrushchev did not change the opinions of any committee members about the danger the United Slates faces but "did con vince us we are against able op position." Mayor E. D. Potts of Grants Pass introduced Morse. C. J. Driscoll, Democratic County cnairman, presided at the dinner. week, from 617 to 793 cases, the disease still is "about at normal seasonal levels," according lo the health board. None of the reports so far Indi cates that the epidemic which has struck an estimated half-million persons in the Los Angeles area the past few days has yet moved into Oregon. However. Dr. Richard H. Wrilcox, state health officer, warned that there is "a strong possibility" that l.'ie disease could become epi demic here within the next few weeks. Flu outbreaks have been noted recently in several other parts of the country, and Dr. Wil cox said the flu virus could be transported quickly to all. parts of Oregon by travelers. (The U.S. Public Health Service already has attributed several of the outbreaks to Asian influenza, the same disease given most of the blame for Oregon's epidemic of more than 47,000 cases two years ago.) Flu shots were recommended as the best defense against the dis ease and Dr. Wilcox especially urged them for the very young or old persons, pregnant women, or persons already weakened by some other illness. One shot gives protection to most older children and adults, although the health officer recom mended a second shot three to four months after the first. The immunity does not carry over from one year to another, and the shots do not become effective un til 10-14 days after vaccination Dr. Wilcox also recommended maintenance of good personal health habits, including plenty of rest, a well-balanced diet, clcanli ness, and avoidance of fatigue and chilling. Because influenza is dangerous chiefly as a result of secondary infections such as pneumonia, the health officer urged that anyone becoming ill with suspected flu call a physician promptly. Symptoms of Asian flu are the same as those of other types. They include sudden onset of illness, often similar to a severe cold, fev. er up to 104 degrees, chills, sore throat, cough, and muscular aches and pains. Danger signals might include: 1.. A sudden rise in temperature after the fourth or fifth day 2. Severe chest pain, especially during deep breathing; a. tougning wnicn Brings up a great deal of yellowish or green ish mucous material; 4. Heavy, deep difficult breath ing; 5. Unusual drowsiness or stupor; 6. Excessive muscular pain and- or stiff neck; 7. A sore throat not relieved by aspirin or simple home remedies. The state health board labora tory has received "only a few" specimens for flu examination dur ing recent weeks; Dr. Wilcox said, so it is considered possible many of the Oregon cases being report ed as influenza actually may be some other disease. The next group of tests is expected to be com pleted by the laboratory early next week.

"Home preparedness is the very basis of Civil Defense and the key to our survival is public accep tance of the role civilians must play," members were told at the meeting. It was agreed that every one must learn and practice the various precautionary steps in the home which are necessary to sur vival in case of disaster. THE COMMITTEE adopted a set of standing rules and plans a pro gram of action which is aimed at Klamath County's homemakers and is to be carried through the women's organizations of the area Switzerland Works Hard, Highly Industrial Nation By NORM CARDOZA The Swiss Alphorn, 15 feet Ion; with a voice as commanding as a steam calliope, sounded in an un likely place Thursday night. That was one of the numerous native instruments played and shown before a big audience of Klamath Knife and Fork Club members and guests in the Willard Hotel by Toni Gauer of Switzerland. The ungainly wooden horn is tootled by; lonely, leather-lunged cowherds high in the Alps. Gauer said. The music is haunting and lovely, though it sounds something like a hound dog when the moon is full. "It sounds best about five miles away," Gauer added. The Alphorn, which may only be played in slow, lamenting tones, is completely unlike' other instru ments Gauer brought with him. He demonstrated a number'of ac cordion-like instruments with im possible names. Swiss music is mostly gay. It reflects the happiness and se curity the Swiss have found for themselves. In a nation measuring just 212 miles at its longest live more than Bus Fares Hike Given Approval WASHINGTON lAPt - The Vancouver-Portland Bus Co.

All one-way fares will be in creased by 10 cents. 10-ride com muter books from $2 50 to $3.50 and 25-ride commuter books from $6 to $8. Basin Man Asks Hearing A Chiloquin man accused of us ing a two-month-old baby as a shield against police and of slash ing an officer's hand during his arrest asked for a hearing in dis trict court Thursday. Robert L. Huitt, 29, whom offi cers said put up a terrific battle when ordered out of a pickup truck parked in the intersection of Main and Seventh streets Tucs day morning, was charged with assault with a dangerous weapon a pocketknife. ' He appeared before District Judge D. E. Van-Vactor and re quested a preliminary hearing on the .felony charge. The hearing was set for 10 a.m. February 10, and Huitt was jailed in lieu of $1,000 bond. Huitt's companion, mother of the baby, was charged with carrying concealed weapon.

She had not ben ill previously. The home ad dress is 120 Sheridan Street. Mr. and Mrs. Derrah lived at 429 North Ninth Street, and Mr. Der rah, who survives, was employed by the Swan Lake Moulding Com pany. They left here 10 years ago. Word of Mrs. Derroh's death was received by a sister-in-law, Mrs. William A. Bishop of the North Ninth Street address. Teenager Held For Truancy lor six days, officers said. They found him loitering at a local res-taurant. The youth became surly during questioning and officers filed a petition against him.

Her entry of plea was sched uled for February 8 at 10 a.m. The mines in Northern Lapland supply about three-fourths of Swe; nen's entire iron ore production. five million people. The poorest of them are rich by most European standards, for the Swiss believe in a welfare state as well as complete freedom of enterprise. Switzerland is a hard working, highly industrialized nation. It is best known for its cheese and fine clockwork, but its biggest indus try is the manufacture of heavy machinery such as turbines, loco motives and generators. Watchmaking comes next, then chemical manufacture. Its fourth industry is banking and insurance. Only England handles more of the world's currency. Incredibly since the nation has no raw materials of its own no coal, iron, oil, precious metals its standard of living is the high est in Europe and perhaps in the world. The country is laced with thous ands of miles of electric rail' roads and highways. Though rail and bus travel is developed su premely, many families own two cars. Most have television sets with hidden antennae to preserve the view and the Swiss fetish for cleanliness and neatness.) Most families live in three- or four- story homes, sometimes very old but furnished with ultra 1 modern conveniences. (The Swiss like to combine the traditional with the modern.) Slums are unknown in the country. Switzerland's tele phone system is the world's best. Gauer mentioned these facets of his country to dispel the popular opinion that his people are mostly cattlemen in silly costumes who yodel from high peaks. They preserve thousands of cus toms and wear hundreds of native costumes but only on special oc casions. The paraphernalia is high' ly symbolic. Gauer's costume was nearly gar ish with color. He tinkled with tra ditional jewelry. His wife was stunning in the most highly prized outfit in a Swiss woman's ward robe a rose-colored, gold inlayed gown and a soaring, winged head piece, all dazzling with color. - Even formality is fun for the Swiss. Those costumes seemed much more interesting than the sterile American formal dress. Gauer advised tourists to get off the standard tourist trails in his country. With a little enterprise, travelers may be treated to the sound of real Swiss yodelcrs who really are hording cows in the high meadows. They can discover for themselves the "real Switzer land." He had a good word for the U.S., too. "Every country has to make its own solutions. It is hard to imagine all the things you have ac complished in this country." Gauer has made 30 trips coast io coast, so he has seen more of it than most of us. Couple Loses; Stork Wins BLY Mr. and Mrs. Werner Mcleher raced the stork to Lake view Wednesday night and lost. The Melchers left their home here about 9:30 p.m. and stopped at Quartz Mountain Inn at 10 o'clock when it became apparent the stork was well ahead. At 10:05, the proprietress of the inn, a tormer nurse, delivered a 7 lb. 8 oz. baby girl. A Lakeview doctor arrived in the disaster car and the family finished the trip to the hospital at a more leisurely pace. All are reported doing fine. Two Mishaps Under Probe City police investigated two aulo accidents, in which there were no injuries, Thursday. They said a car operated by Burt Faga, of Route 3, struck a panel delivery truck driven by Stephen P. Green, a mail carrier, at the corner of Klamath Avenue and South Fifth Street at 11:30 a.m. Both vehicles were damaged slightly. Faga was charged with failure to yield right of way to a vehicle. A car driven by Mrs. Mildred Polly Merrill, 1949 Melrose Street, was struck from the rear by one driven by a juvenile at the corner of' East Main Street and Darrow Street at 9:30 p.m., police stated. The Merrill car received minor damage. The other car was dam aged considerably. The youth was charged with following too close ly. Police also learned of a case of vandalism from George White. 129 I West Oregon Avenue, Thursday. He said someone threw a rock through a window of his car as he drove by the intersection of Biehn Street and Oregon Avenue about 5:30 p.m. Police asked the return of a white gold Perfex wrist watch re ported lost Thursday by Mrs. Car ole Canfield, 830 Owens Street, somewhere between that address and the Medical - Dental Build ing on Main Street. In communities which have re. sponded to the need for Civil De. fense, a number of organizations lies taken the lead in projects that are of value not only in po sible war emergency, but in other disasters that happen all too fre quently and with little warning, it was pointed out. Parent-Teacher groups, Business and Professional Women's clubs, rural and health organizations and church groups have carried on identification tag health card, blood typing, registra tion and inquiry programs. Rcpre. sentatives of women's organiza tions have taken the lead in these important segments of the pro gram. The Klamalh County Women's Civil Defense Committee is setting up a two-way cemmunication plan for the organization with request! for information coining from the clubs and the supplying of such aid by the committee from the re sources of federal and state Civil Defense associations. E. M. (JOE) SEARLES, Klam. ath County Civil Defense director, told the group that much material is available just for the askim; and there are many resource pen. pie who may be called upon. Some very good films may be obta:nd on two weeks' notice, he added. The cost, if any, of the project! undertaken by the local committee is to be met by the sponsoring agents. Continuing the orientation o( committee members. Myrtle Cald well reviewed "Emergency Sani tation in the Home." Among the sub-topics listed and explained were storage of emergency wa ter supply, purification methods for contaminated water, and the necessity for two weeks' reserve food supply. To complete the main program, a film on radioactive fallout was shown to develop understanding of the nature of the menace which would be widespread after a bomb blast in varying degrees. "Evacuation would be the plan of action in target areas," Mrs. Caldwell explained. "Projects for follow-up shelters would be a ne cessity outside the blast area." The group will meet again on February 9 at 2 p.m. Place of meeting will be announced, accord ing to Natalia Reichenberg, chairman. Yuletide Seal Totals Noted Proceeds, to date, of the Christ- mas Seal sale total $5,258.10, it was reported at a meeting of the executive board, Klamath County Tuberculosis and Health Associa tion, held January 27 at the of fice, 1411 Crescent.

Mrs. Mae Speirs who serves as county representative for the asso ciation, reported to the board that 17 chest X-rays were taken at the Memorial services for Richard i county health department for posi tive reactors following tuberculin skin tests of employes at two mills in this area recently. The asso ciation maintains the X-ray equip ment and sponsors this followup in case finding surveys. A monthly report from the slate tuberculosis hospitals showed two new admissions from Klamath in December and one readmission, making a total of five patients from this county receiving treat ment there. In addition, three oth ers are in the tuberculosis ward at the Portland Veterans Hospital.
