Newcomer lo t lie Klamath Bas in arc led astray in Harden plan rung by unexpected bcaulilul kprmg days in March. The old- timers will tell you there is always a sharp frcc.c here on or about June to. We've cut home-grown leal let luce in our garden on Lakeshore Drive on May Ml. Other years the seed wasn't even in the ground until alter .May 15. Some experts suggest planting as soon as the ground can he worked Others advw wailing un til night temperatures are consis tently above freeing. Some ot the seed companies, such as Mamie- villc & King Company, include maps on the reverse side ol seed packages lo indicate planting time by geographical location. Because of the shod growing ceason, most gardeners here set out plants rather than planting the seeds in the ground. The new J'uiich 'n tiro kits on the market permit any number of llower va rieties to be started iniloors lor setting out when the weather has moderated to a point ol satety. I'lanls raised locally arc hardier, of course. A "lent" of Saian Wrap over plant callings will speed up rooting processes by lelaining moisture inside the enclosure. To make the lent, bend a wire coal hanger, or any stout wire, into a simple lent framework. Stretch Saran Wrap oxer the Iramework and seal all edges after the cuttings have been set in the moling media Black Magic, sand, moss or whatever you use. Saran Wrap and nulled sphag num moss work together lor suc cessful llower and vegetable seed germination. The moss is avail able under the trade name of No dampoll and has been rendered diseascprool. Use a shallow con tamer and lill with moss which has been soaked and squeezed to take out excess water. Petunia snapdragon and columbine should be sowed on lop but larger seed, such as zinnia, calendula and as ter, will germinate faster it seed is covered with 1-Hi inch layer of moistened moss. Moisten with a fine mist ol water and cover en tire container with a piece ol Saran Wrap. Place in a warm, dark spot lor i lo 18 hours 'H.'i de grees is recommended i. When green "fu,7." shows, move lo a icmi-hghlcd spot and break one side of the Saran Wrap seal. When the second set of leaves appear, remove covering and transplant into soil-tilled lint or small nls.

Nor did Marx ever dream that the Philadelphia Quartermaster Depot could cut 7,")2 items oK ol Us shoe inventory and still have 3J9 diflerenl kinds of military footwear lell. The report said the stock could he furllicr reduced at a saving of ViO.oon on paperwork alone "il the Marine Corps can be persuaded to abandon its require mcnt lor a special mahogany hn- ish shoe leather." Hut 1 think we can count on Ihc Marine Corps lo cnnloimd Marx by remaining distinctively shod. Where .Marx really under-rated us was in the field of footlockcrs. He couldn't have known that an air base in Cermany would order :i(K) footlockcrs lioni the United States when they were available al a supply depot nearby. Certainly he couldn't have lore- seen the mix-up that caused 30. 000. instead ol .'100. lootlockers to lie shipped lo the base at a cost of StMI.OUO. All of this is lurtber evidence thai Marx was off base. 1 just hope we don'l go broke proving it. By DICK WEST WASHINGTON lUPD - I don't know much more about Karl Marx than the average Russian knows about lirouclm. But one ol his economic theories seems lo have stuck in my memory. 1 recall reading some place thai Marx predicted capitalism would eventually fall ol ils own weight by producing more than tl could consume. Thoughts like Ibis made Marx nervous. So lie locked lumsell up in his study, told Ills wife to keep the kids quiet, then invented Com monism. The Marxian dnclrinc has been pretty well picked lo pieces by now and 1 think 1 have spoiled still another flaw in his theory. Marx tailed to reckon with U. S. armed services. I mean some ol our ' warriors are doing more than merely ptotectins us hum ihc military lineal ol Communism. They also are patriotically doing their hit lo protect us from overproduction. Some of Hie wavs in which this Is done are described in a report prepared by the si. ill of the House Appropriations Committee However. limn the lone of the re port I gathered that the commit tee lecls we would be better off wiihout Ibis extra protection. Take, for example. Ihe case ol the expendable flashlights, which Ihe Army Signal Corps purchased for a West Coast air base. They were so defective. Ihe report said, "they were locally known as single-use items, lo be thrown away Ihe first lime Ihc switch failed to work instantly." You can see how Ihis clashes with Ihe Marxian theory.

Ariz. Some women rcporlcrs were exchanging whispered estimates that the first lady must have lost nine or ten pounds during her Arizona slay. I know a much cheaper way lor Mamie to lose weight than going lo Arizona." said Ihe cam eraman. "Travel with her hus band." Mamie, inciilculally, looks quite lashionable, Ihe girls say, with her reddish golden hair and sort ol a modified pageboy hair-do. II is amazing how otherwise sensible people can hear part ol i conversation and unwillingly et in motion a series of rapid- lire rumors that end up with someone calling a press associa tion to inquire about Ihe death or serious illness of Ihc Presi dent. One day recently when the President was moving very ac tively around his farm in Gettys burg. Ihe rumor started in Washington Ihal one of the lop brain surgeons at the National Institutes ol Health had been or dered to cancel all appointments and rush to Gettysburg "lor Ihe President." The press associations knew Ihal Ihe President had been os tensibly in good health earlier in the day. hut because their men in Gettysburg had not seen Ei senhower in several hours, there had lo he much checking and re checking with people on Ihe duel executive's stall. Later, il turned nut that Hie surgeon in question had gone In llershey. Peiin.. on some busi ness ol his own and someone with a slightly faulty knowledge of Pennsv Iv ania geography thought that llershey was annul the same as Gettysburg. And one day last week, while the President was busy in his While House olfice seeing delega tion after delegation, reports popped up in broadcasting circles in Pittsburgh and Detroit that the chief executive had just col lapsed in .Georgia. Rumors of this type dely trac ing or rationalization. They slarl sometimes with radio listeners who hear pari of a broadcast or misunderstand the part (hey do hear and immediately start horn balding Ihc newspapers and broadcasting .stations with the twisted versions ol what they or sonic neighbor think they might have heard. There are hundreds ol these ru mors every year and at least 'JO per cent of Ihem must be checked by reporters who are as signed regularly to Ihc While House. II is a pain in Ihe note book, bill si ill necessary. A re port of his ccllapsc in Georgia when he was hard at work al Ihe While House did not warrant much checking because of Us ob vious lalsity. Bui it still required sending messages between Ihc cities involved lo try lo deter mine just what slatted Ihe story. No success there, either. The President has been itching lo go lishing recently. He must have been reading some tackle catalogues. Al any rate, a stream running through the Caloctin Mountains near Camp David. Md., might at tract him. The trout season opens up (here the middle ol next month and (he President might wet a few flics when lie retui ns Irom Georgia later in April. He new is expected to leave lor Au gusta about April II. ol now Symington's best hope seems to be gelling the nomina t .on through a compromise if Ihe convention deadlocks on other candidates. Johnson has a good excuse lor not gelling out jnd campaigning for the nominatn. As Senate leader, he has lo slick to his job lor more reasons lhan one. lie has a responsibility to he there. And if he hopes to get the nomination it will depend to a large degree on the kind of legisla live record tile Senate turns in this year under his leadership. Johnson is a middle-ol-the-road-er who gets a lot done in Congress. He can afford to wait, so long as he has friends working for him. He is such a careful operator he is unlikely lo make any move un til he has his ten-pins lined up for what he hopes will be a strike. Coy f amlitlaKvs By JAMES MARLOW WASHINGTON 'AIM - There arc just two coy ones lell: Adlai Slevenson of Illinois and Sen. Lyn don Johnson ol Texas, the only obvious would-be presidential as pirants who haven't yet publicly proclaimed their ambitions. Stevenson, two-lime loser in Ihe presidential race, isn't campaign ing for the nomination. He is play ing the reliiclanl dragon again, as he did in l!i."2. when Ihe con vention lapped him over Ins protests. Johnson, the lull Texan who is captain of the Senate Democrats, says he doesn't expect lo be nom inated and hasn't asked a single person lo vole for him. It's his Iriends who arc busy. Stevenson has been going around South America saying such things as "I have taken a permanent vacalion from politics" and "I do not intend In seek (he nomination" but al Ihe same lime not foreclosing on Ihe main chance if it conies. Asked in Brazil a week ago if he would accept a draft, he ducked wilh this one: "1 will have to cross Ihal bridge when 1 conic lo it " He has pretty good reason lo he modest about his ambitions this year. In iniio he is prelty much in the background and stands an ex cellent chance of being passed over by Ihe convention, which may figure that if he couldn't make it in two tries, why risk another'' Vice President Richard M. Nix on, ol course, doesn't have lo an nounce his hopes lor Ihe Republi can nomination since nobody else is in sight lor it. Among the Democratic senators who arc now openly seeking Iheir parly's hid, Hubert II. Humphrey of .Minnesota made it ollicial last Dec. 30. followed quickly by John K. Kennedv of Massachusetts on Jan. L. Because they were in early, they had lo start early looking for support. This meant up-and-down treks through slate alter stale, endless speeches, and the exhausting torment ol entering slate primaries. Il wasn't until March "4 Ihal Sen. Stuart Symington of Missouri linally gol around In saying pub licly he'd like Ihe Democratic nomination, loo. and is working lo gel it. But he'll operate on a much more restrained basis than Ken nedy and Humphrey. 11c said he won't go into slate primaries. As Driving A W'ilc By PHIL NEWSOM A little less bouncy, grim more ollcn lhan smiling. Soviet Pre mier Nikila Khrushchev was do ing his best lo reopen old wounds this last week. Scarcely had he set loot on French soil lhan he reminded his hosts of "the uncxploded delayed action mines and bombs still on Soviet and French territory." The Soviet news agency Tass. reporting Khrushchev's first day in Paris, made pointed reference to Ihc "Nazi butchers" who killed resistance fighters. Rehire a French-Soviet friend ship group he accused West Ger man Chaiiccllur Konrad Adenauer ol trying In upset the results of World War II. II Ihe French had hoped by jam-packing Khrushchev's official schedule to prevent his using his French visit as a propaganda plallorm, they had ' failed. For Khrushchev made public speeches it every opportunity, even linding special groups lo address during ollicial "rest" periods. His theme: Europe is living un der Ihe menace ol militarism and new aggression; a German peace treaty is necessary to peace; and military groupings such as NATO must go. In a nation which had fought three major wars against Ger many in less lhan 100 years, il was impossible for him not lo strike some responsive chords. French suspicion of a rcsur ;enl Germany had delayed organ ization of NATO, and the West European Common Market in which West Germany and Fiance now are the major partners.

Dr. Hammond is convinced cig arette smoking is "the principal cause" of lung cancer now. Despite all recent warnings, cig arette sales are at a new high, but perhaps the warning hasn't lallen on deal ears because sales of filter-tipped and low-lar, low- nicotine cigarettes have increased tremendously. Dr. Hammond said "II appears Ihe majority of Americans want lo smoke, but ihey want to do so without running the risk of lung cancer or any of the oilier dis seases associated wilh cigarette smoking."
