Not up in this country at least. My wile makes real line sourdough biscuits And she got a lot of tips from Mrs. Harry Ohrnchain. Deb Ad dison has long been recognized as the master when it comes to sour dough pancakes. There must be many more. And we are nut alone. Down in the crowded confines of San Fran Cisco is Sourdough Jack, a fellow who is doing something to bring back the art of sourdough cooking in a big way. Jack Mabce has recently come on the market with not only a sour dough starter for the beginner and a sourdough pot for the gourmet but has written1 a little book on the subject. Called Sourdough Jack's Western Cookery the vol ume deals with the origin, his tory rand use of sourdough from its inception, through the Alaskan gold rush days, the early cattle period and, finally, today's epi cures who want to do it Ihcm (elves. It is a book lull of odd little bits of information. Such as the fact that the term "hooch" origin ated from sourdough. Hooch, also known as becwack, is the fluid that forms on lop of sourdough that has been allowed lo complete its fermentation and is, to quote the author, only slightly less vola tile than high lest aviation gaso line. In addition lo the various histor ical aspects and guest articles on the bread of life theme there are general instructions in the art of maintaining ami using a sourdough crock for the creation of pancakes, waffles and breads of various r types "aiitPilsirs".- " " I Perhaps a brief listing of some! of the recipes might be of interest to the reader. In addition lo the regular for mulae are listed such things as apple, banana and blueberry pai cakes. If you wish lo go even more exotic you can make up clam pancakes, crepcs-Suzcltc, pea nut butter pancakes (ugh!) and shrimo pancakes? There are recipes fur sourdough biscuits and blueberry ' muflins. There are also instruct ions for honey gold bread made with hon ey of course as well as anadama bread, oatmeal bread and white! bread. In case you think sourdough is! merely something from which pion pectors make bannock let it be said that there are recipes f" oatmeal cookies, chocolate cake, spice cake and sourdough fruit cake. Nor is Sourdough Jack so wed to his product that he can't sec anything else. He also includes! recipes for bean hole beans, bar.- nock, kidney bean and garbanzoi salad, stone jug piquant dressing, Sourdough Jack's rice, Cornish pasties, Grilled cornmush, Hang- town fry, sheepherder slew, trap pen stew, clam chowder, split pea oup, bean soup and others. The book, which is a paper bound one on which Ibe pages slay open when turned something that all books should do can he pro cured from bookstores or by writ ing to Sourdough Jack at Box 411.11, San Francisco. It is an amusing little hook, only thirty five pages, and one that I'm sure all cooks will get a kick out or. And it helps in working your lourdough, too. Tips are always welcome. 'Specially In a livid as competi tive as sourdough cookery. er Ihey have said the wrong thing that it is expedient to blame the press and claim you were mis quoted. NOW, STRAl'B SAYS "1 did not and do not say that he recom mended that il be done." He went on to explain that his talk was critical of the governor lor even suggesting that the Sta Wellare Commission consider such action. THIS IS directly contrary to the pledge made by Chairman Straub not loo many weeks ago that the political campaign should be shove the muck and mire that all too ki&cnsrficeurs. 0 This is irresponsible political ac tion at its worst. IN ALL FAIRNESS, I must ad mil that the case some time ago about several unwed mothers in Calilornia who kept having chil dren and who kept costing the state many thousands in welfare funds is a source ol concern. However, it highlights something that demands careful consideration . , that is the abuse ol welfare funds. THE COST OF WELFARE has become a tremendous item in the budgets of all levels of govern ment. The principle of welfare is basi cally excellent, when it is sternly applied. However, when it is applied loosely, and people come lo feci that they arc entitled lo it because I'c I ..vniii-ni'u niinnu Ihfn nmn- Hung 10 tTiuiig. LIKE SO .MANY OTHER pro grams I li at have been motivated by commendable desires, any pro gram that is abused will eventu ally be junked. When that happens, those who really need the assistance will have to pay for the greed and hiltlcssncss of those who abused the program. STERILIZATION certainly is not an, answer any of us would ap prove. But hard, strict, vigorous en forcement of wclfare rules, includ ing elimination of any persons who abuse II, is something we, as tax payers, are entitled lo expect. The old stern motto, still the guiding light for proud, ambitious people is "The Lord helps those who help themselves." Had In Hie By FLOYD L. WYNNE CHARGES hurled by the Stale Democratic Chairman Wednesday in Coos Bay against Gov. .Mark Hatfield were shocking to say the least. Robert Straub staled in an ad dress to a Coos Bay meeting that Governor Hatfield had written a letter to J. H. Luihn. chairman ol the slate Welfare Commission in which Hatfield had recommended sterilization of unwed mothers to prevent abuse of wellare funds. A reporter who apparently cov ered the Coos Bay meeting slated that Straub read from a photostat ic copy of Hatfield's letter to Luihn. The charge was extremely se rious, if true. WHEN CONTACTED IN DEN VER where he was making an address. Hatfield staled the subject of sterilization had come up dur ing a discussion, but that he had sever recommended sterilization. Friday, Straub backed away frc.n his earlier charge and, at a Salem meeting, said the news sto ries of his accusation were "not Correct." This is a common practice among public figures who find, aft m Con tiling By FLORKNCE JENKINS There is an element of individual responsibility where the federal census is concerned. There was some lack of agree ment on the unoflicinl slate census figures released by the slate of Oregon and Ihe totals the city and county officials cany up with. The 18th decennial census, con ducted by the U.S. Department of Commerce, Bureau of the Census, will be taken this spring. Actual counting will commence a week from Tuesday and let's make it a point to sec that no one is over looked. The appointment of crew lead ers for the l0 Census of Popula tion and Housing in this area has been announced by Homer E. Itai ney of Ihe Census Bureau's tem porary district ollice at Bend. The three local crew leaders are Jlrs. Ann Wallers. Route 3, Klam ath Falls: Vein 11. Berry, Route Klamath Kails, and Mrs. Dor othy West. Merrill. They will receive technical train ing at Bend for their census-taking duties so they will know pro cedures for recruiting census lak ers, how lo train their census tak ers, canvassing methods, prepara tion and submission of reports and ihe supervision of census lakers lo insure a complete and accurate count. The crew leaders are key people in the field operation of federal census-taking w?jjti takes place every 10 years. The individual resident of Klam ath Counly is important, loo. It is his obligation to give truthful an swers and to make sure that he is counted on the I960 census. Too Much? Klamath Kails iTo the Editor! Krom time lo time 1 have turned oi? our television set lo watch ccr tain advertised programs which have been well worth viewing, and sometimes cither before or after I've started lo watch others and then switch them off, feeling that Ihey were just a waste of time. However, last week, circumstanc es made it impossible for me to. do other than sit and wile away my timeo Kor six nights 1 have watched television and during that period I have seen not more than seven hours of really worthwhile, constructive viewing. 1 am wondering if each one of us could be compelled to watch our television screens for a six- day interval if we wouldn't find the answer to the causes of so many of our juvenile problems and our ever increasing lower stand ards of morality; Saturday night, for instance, between 7:30 and 11 o'clock, one sordid, ugly mixture of murder and violence followed right one after another. Three and one half hours of this! And on Saturday night! There was not one worthwhile informative thing in all that time. Each show seemed to be outdoing its predeces sor in its portrayal of fighting, killing, lying and stealing. If this is the way we adults enjoy pass ing our time -(and condemn our younptjers to do so, too) is il any wonder we sometimes feel that our civilization is becoming decadent? TV could be (and 1 know is in cities where one has a choice of stations) a media of imparting knowledge. Yet in our smaller lo cales, where we have little choice of selections, it gives us hour after hour of ugly, poorly acted, impos sible situations which should nau seate instead of entertain an adull audience. Why do we permit it? Why do we, as parents, not take Ihe time lo protest lo the sponsors of this type of telecasting? Perhaps it's because so ma'iy people have been is unforgivably unaware as I. I've watched only what I've wanted to sec. 1 still am willing to admit there are some good educational md amusing programs but bow lew and how far between they are! Please won't you parents take Ihe time to view television as 1 did for a solid week .''Keep a rec ord of what you see and evaluate it by asking yourselves these ques tions: Have I gained any new worthwhile information? Have 1 really been amused and enler- ained? Was this program honest ly worth watching, or could my lime have been belter spent other wise? If you then feel as I now feel for heaven's sake do some thing about it! Write the sponsors nd protest yes and write and congratulate Ihe few who really put on good, decent shows. And while I'm at this aren't you all a bit weary of all the in volved, expensive, ridiculous, time consuming advertising? My own reaction has been that if a spon sor has lo pay a chorus of IB peo ple to sing about his product, he may find it necessary to cut down on the expensive components of the product itself. Even the so-called "newscasts" have, with rare exceptions, be come mere repetitious mutterings from morning until night of the sensational, morbid, sordid hap- SHORT RIBS By Frank O'Neal 551 V J If TUERE LfV pollings of Ihe day, taking up three fourths of Ihe 15-minute period.

Perhaps if people could see and hear more about the real world in which they live and become really and truthfully acquainted with the people who are directing its course, instead of listening live or six times a day to the lat est on Dr. Finch, or some other equally juicy but certainly not ele vating morsel, then they might again learn to take a new inter est in the worthwhile. Up unlil now I've never been, to my knowledge, considered a crank nor a crackpot, but perhaps after writing and hoping to see this in print, 1 shall be and I don't care. I don't want to go on turn ing off my set at the end of the day and hate myself for the time I've wasted in watching programs which haven't given me one worth while thing to think about or which haven't added one thing to my fund of knowledge.

WASHINGTON (AP)-A Senate! subcommittee said today prompt changes are needed in the admin istration of U.S. foreign aid to Vict Nam. The subcommittee headed by Sen. Mike Mansfield (D Monti, assistant Democratic leader, said a lengthy study convinced it the aid program has served a highly useful purpose. But it said the nonmilitary aid program lacks a clear-cut plan with specific integrated goals, while such goals do exist in the military aid program. The report said that about 60 per cent of U.S. aid to that nation goes to support nearly 100 per cent of Viet Nam's military bud get. Pentagon figures showed this week that Vict Nam military aid from 195J to last June 30 amount ed to $4116.265.000. Conlributions this year will total $74,482,000. In calling for "a new positive premise for aid to Vict Nam," the subcommittee asked that nonmili tary grant aid, which topped 182 ftstiWTAXfcasss-the. ear ended last Jufl 30. be cut" prTJgT?Ssss!?ly.w It saidjjhat as soon as the country is on fjie way to reasonable eco nomic self-reliance all grant aid should 5 be stopped.
