PAGE I HERALD AND NEWS, Klamath Falls. Ore. Tuesday, January SI, 1961 Welfare Administrator Cites Cost As Reason For Hot Using Surpluses By PAUL W. HARVEY. Jr. SALEM (AP) State public welfare ' administrator Jeanne1 Jewett said today that Oregon counties are not using surplus foods for the needy because It is too costly to administer such a program. , She testified before the Senate State and Federal Affairs Com miuee, wnicn is considering a resolution ordering the Welfare Commission to set up such a pro gram. She announced that the commis sion, in cooperation with the Marion County Court, is setting up a pilot program in Marion County to determine Just how much such a program would cost. Gov. Mark Hatfield has . dc manded the resignations of four of the seven members of the state Public Welfare Commission. He charged the commission, among other things, failed to carry out his directive to use the federal surplus foods. Mrs. Lee Patterson, a commis sion member, told the committee that the program has not been carried out "because the counties refuse to administer it. "Gov. Hatfield never mentioned this subject until he wrote a mild letter last week. "But we work with the gover nor, and not for the governor. We are going to stand pat." Miss Jewett said that the state Department of Finance and Ad ministration would buy the surplus loods from the federal govern' ment, and then distribute them to any county that wants them. "The Welfare Commission," she said, "hat a passive role." Thy government will ship sur plus foods to the states. Then the cost of repackaging and distribu tion must be paid by the counties. She estimated that 66,000 wel fare cases, plus an equal number of non-welfare clients with mar ginal incomes, could participate in such a plan. She went on that if the legts-j lature provides the money, the state commission would adminis ter such a program. She said that corn meal, dried milk, wheat flour, rice, lard and: butter now are available. She added that canned pork and gravy, pea beans, dried eggs and peanut butter would become avail able in March. Sen. Thomas R. Mahoney, D- Portland, author of the resolution, said the trouble Is "that nobody wants to accept responsibility for the program, so nobody Is doing anything about it.

Pilot Gene Powers of Mcdford said he sighted a clear space on1 the highway and landed there without irjjdent about 4 p.m. It! was at the Riddle Interchange, 25 miles south of Roseburg. To get the plane out of the way quickly, another airplane was sent from Roseburg with fuel fori Powers. While state police blocked traf fic, Powers took off again at 5:25 p.m. to complete his flight to Medford. The other pla(e went back to Roseburg. Powers was flying a twin englned airplane for Mercy Flights of Medford. Money Taken TOLEDO. (AP) Someone stole $320 from the. Toledo High School office over the weekend.

Tolice charged Epperson with running a red light. Epperson told them he attempted to stop but was not able to avoid collision. Damage was minor. run as high as 25 per cent of the value of the food. The surplus; foods would be given in addition to the groceries which the county welfare commissions now buy for welfare cases. Sen. Walter J. Pearson, D-Port-land, said, "We can hold' the gov ernor responsible for failure to adopt this program. Somebody has missed the boat;" Joe Jaross, Washington County judge, said the state should take the leadership in starting the pro gram. Clayton Nybcrg, a Washington County commissioner, said wel fare clients would not eat the sur plus foods. He also said the pro gram would work a hardship on grocers by reducing their sales to welfare cases. Multnomah County Commis sioner M. James Glcason pleaded for state funds to distribute the food. He said it would cost be tween 8 and 25 per cent of the food's value to administer the program, or $200,000 a year for Multnomah County alone. The county does not have the money, he said.

Ten Simple Steps To Higher Marks o SALEM (AP)- A member of the Oregon Tax Commission said Monday he favors a cigarette tax. But he emphasized he was not speaking for Gov. Mork Hatfield,1 who opposes it. ,....' Dean Ellis tola a House Tax ation Committee hearing he was speaking under the governor s policy allowing him to state his own views. EU!s said the state tax struc ture relies too heavily on the Income tax. !-.. From the standpoint of good economy, he said, Oregon could very well reduce its income tax 10 per cent and add a cigarette tax to compensate for it, tills spoke In favor of a one per cent levy on all Incomes. This would require ' low income earn ers, now exempt, to pay some taxes. i He said a man with four child ren earning $5,000 a year ' now pays no income tax. Under the new one per cent provision he would pay $50. M ,!,!,, M m DooV Open 6:45 Shows 7iOB, :40 COMPLETE I INTACT I Tin Great Entertainment Show NOW AT POPULAR PRICES!

D Coquille, of the House Ways and Mean Committee, testified fori (he House tax package. The bill would still exempt such things as Social Security and Industrial Accident Commission benefits. . Barton said he will not go for a ,10 per cent across-tho-board cut in state income taxes. He said he favors a tax cut but said the across-the-board cut does not cor rect inequities of the present system. Sens. Walter Pearson. D-Port- land, and Boyd Overhulse, D Madras, introduced a bill to re duce income taxes a flat 10 per cent. Ellis said the present system with It loopholes and its deduc tions boosts the cost of compli ance. He said It costs the tax payers and it costs the state. Ellis urged Oregon to take the lend in tax revision. He said that eventually the federal government must do the same. He termed the federal tax struc ture "a Frankenstein monster of tax growth." He said the people have "come to accept it without realizing it Is something we our selves have done." "Oregon here can be first and foremost in a hd that the1 United States must have to sur-J Vive, he added.

Ed.D,, with HARRY KAKNS Good work habits are essential if you want to make better grades. When the manager of a factory wants to produce more goods and make more profits, he calls in an efficiency expert. The expert tells him how to rearrange his machinery and alter the habits of his workers so that the work can be done faster and with greater case. Many potentially brilliant stu dents need a similar overhauling of their work habiU. When they get It, their brilliance is uncovered. It saves time and energy to know where and when you are going to work, how you are going to work, and what you are going; to work at ' Once you get in fhe habit of doing assignments according to a tviittui panel ii, mo iun vi gci- ting down to work ceases to agon ize you. It comes naturally and Is, in fact, enjoyable. You find, also, that you now have more time for other tilings. Here are some suggestions that will help you do more efficient work: 1. Have a regular place of study in your home. Make sure it has good lighting nnr is situated away from the TV set, the radio, and the con fusion of the rest of the house. You may not be able to avoid all noise and interruptions, but you should have a place that is rela tively quiet and free of intrusions. In this study nook, provide a place to put your books so you will always know where they are. You should not have to hunt through the house. The student who spends 10 or 15 minutes searching desperately under newspapers and behind divans for a textbook is not always in the best frame of mind for study when he finds it. A good student: knows where his books are. 2. Set aside a regular time, to study and a fairly regular amount of time to devote to it. According to Dr. James Conant the senior high school student preparing for college today should spend from 15 to 20 hours a week in study outside tar classroom. 3. Alwavs make sure you un derstand (txactly what you arc expected to do on assignments. Ask the teacher questions until this is clear in Qur mind. Never leave subject matter to guess work. 4. Keep a "Things-I-Have-to- Do" list. Every lime you are given an assignment, put it en the list and assign yourself a specific time at which to do it. 5. Do your work as soon as you can. Even If you see an hour or a can depend on are suddenly vflped out Dy emergencies and unexpect ed events. I. Allow yourself enough lime for each assignment. But do not spend so much time on one assignment that others suf fer. 7. When your mind begins to wander, quit working for five or 10 minutes. Relax. These periodic work breaks bring you back to the job amazingly refreshed and ready to go on. 8. Do your own work. After all, you not Dad or Mom or the neighbor are sup posed to be getting the education. You won't have Dad's brain with JO STEPS TO BETTER LEARNING Presidents Shew Gloom For Reason By JAMES MARLOW Associated Press. News Analyst WASHINGTON (AP)-The new speaks, but the old is with us.

There is also political benefit in describing domestic and tor- kind of woman he'd been looking for all his life. He begged me to wait until he could "work some thing out."

This is just about what Eisen hower did when he took office eight years ago in describing the problems he inherited from the Truman administration.

P I " , ,.: ran.TshruSSed ms shoulders and said, turbing" were in strange con trast with the almost sunny State of the Union Eisenhower saw in his message to Congress Jan. 12. But more startling, in a way, are the similarities between the problems Kennedy saw in his first State of the Union message and the ones Eisenhower saw facfig him in his first message to Con gress on Feb. 2, 1953. For Kennedy, intentionally or not, in effect was saying that his dilemmas now were dilemmas which Eisenhower said confront ed him, promised to solve, but didn't. Take the two men on foreign af fairs: Eight years ago said, "This administration has be gun the definition of a nw posi tive foreign policy." Kennedy Monday: "We ' must re-examine and revise our whole arsenal of tools" in dealing with other nations. ' ' ' : Eisenhower: "Our :policy will be designed to foster the advent of practical unity in Western Eu rope." ' had to wait until he was mar ried. Another year shot.

When I told him that some women drag on "I just can't do this to her now." Don't bother to give me any ad vice, Ann right now I'm the world's best authority on this sub ject. In fact I can probably give you a few pointers to pass on to other jackasses like myself. Thanks for letting me unload. It's been a relief to get it down on you on exam day. There is nothing Wong, of course, with asking for advice and examples. But the basic work should be your own. After getting help from another person, test whether you can do the problem for yourself. 9. Use the dictionary, If you do not understand all the words used by the instructor or the author of your textbook, you will not understand the lesson. You should be able to define the terms used. A dictionary should be as much a part of your equip ment as pencils and paper. 10. Study the hardest things first. This takes a great exertion of will. The temptation is great to take the line of least resistance and do the easy ones first. The trouble with that approach is that after your energy runs out, the hardest jobs remain. Hard chores never grow easier by aging. It makes sense to do the hard est work when you arc fresh and most alert and can give It your longest, best attention.
