Gift Giveaway
Inconsiderate
By ANN LANDERS
Pear Ann Landers: Our 15-year-old
eon has a job after ichool
and on Saturday. Bruce is a sen
sible, thoughtful
boy who saves
his money wise-
iy- ...
He is very
fond of his old-
1 er brother; in
L'i I fact, he look un
l.M to him as an
idol. Bruce bought his older broth
er an electric razor which was
an expensive gift for a boy of
15. His brother seemed pleased
at the time but I happen to know
he never used the gift.
Last week I learned he re
wrapped the electric razor and
gave it to his boss as a birthday
present. When I asked him about
it he said he was short of money
and this was an emergency meas
ure. If Bruce finds out he'll be
heartbroken. What shall I do?
E. J. L.
Dear E.J.L.: Explain to the
older boy that there's an even
greater emergency on the home
front. Lend him the money, U
necessary, but see to it that he
replaces the electric razor im
mediately. Bruce must never
know his brother was so thought
less and Inconsiderate.
Dear Ann Landers: You're the
only one I can ask for help. When
you hear the problem you 11 un
derstand why.
I started to go with Nick when
I was 19. He was 27 and had
already been divorced twice. He!
never talked to me much about
his ex-wlves but both were older
than he was and both were alco
holics.
It -sounds terrible when I write
it, but at the time it didn't seem
wrong he asked me to move Into
his place and I did. The landlady
assumed we were married and
so did everyone else. I posed as
Mrs. joint savings account,
charge accounts, the whole works.
That year we had a baby boy.
The next year a girl. Now we
have four lovely children and are
very happy. But he still has not
married me,
I've taken It easy on the sub
ject because I know his former
marriage experiences have made
him afraid. Yesterday I brought
it out in the open. I told him
our children are growing up and
we MUST got married. He says
our friends and family would be
shocked and it would hurt him
with his boss if he knew We had
been living together illegally all
these years.
Please tell me what to do. I'll
bet you've never had this prob
lem before and you'll have to
hunt plenty for an answer. LYNN
Dear Lynn: I get this prob
lem only about twice a week. 1
have an answer all ready. Here
It Isi Marriage laws vary from
state to state. Go to your city
hall and consult the marriage li
cense department. Ask if a cere
mony can be performed and the
records kept private. If they can
do it seek no further. If not, go
to the nearest large city where
you are not known. And may I
be the first (and probably the
only one) to congratulate you?
Dear Readers: This is a plea
from me to you.
Please, please don't send money
with your letters asking for ad'
vice. I am well paid by the news
papers that print the column.
Often I suspect the reader has
sent the money at some sacrifice
to himself. It makes me unhappy
when I find silver coins scotch
taped to the letters and no ad
dress, which makes It impossible
to return.
I am deeply touched by your
expressions pf appreciation, but
your written thanks is enough.
P.S. This month I'm sending
such contributions to the Cerebral
Palsy Fund.
Oregon Warden Claims
Death Penalty Unfair
Are your parents too strict?
You can benefit from the expe
riences of thousands of teenagers

booklet, "How To Live With Your
Parents," enclosing with your re
quest 20 cents in coin and a long,
self-addressed, stamped envelope.
Ann Landers will be glad to
help you with your problems. Send
them to her in care of this nows
paper enclosing a stamped, self-
addressed envelope.
SALEM (AP) - The death pen
alty is unfair because it hils the
poor and not the rich, Warden
Clarence Gladden of the state pen
itentiary said Thursday night.
"I think the person without
money, friends and influence of
ten has to pay the supreme pen
alty whilo the person with money.
friends and influence does not,"
Gladden said.
Gladden told a House Judiciary
Committee that he would vote to
abolish the death penalty.
Gladden said between 1930 and
1939 there were 167 cases of homi
cide in Oregon while there were
only 72 between 1950 and 1959
a 56 per cent drop.
The warden said he felt the cer
tainty of punishment would be
more of a detriment than capital
punishment.

Congolese
On Rampage
LEOPOLDVILLE, The Congo
(AP) Congolese soldiers, appar
ently bored with waiting for the
start of a military offensive, ram
paged through the town of Lisala
looting property and molesting
women, the United Nations re
ported (today.
A Malayan officer of the small
U. N. contingent In tho town tried
to contact the local district com
missioner but the Congolese sol
diers stopped him from getting
to the commissioners office.
The civilian population gath
ered together Thursday for an an
gry counterdemonstration and
marched through the town, threat
ening to attack the soldiers.
The situation appeared to have
quieted by nightfall.
Lisala lies in the eastern area
of Equator Province, where the
Leopoldville army commander,
Gen. Joseph Mohutu, has gathered
soldiers for an invasion of
Lumumba Oriental Province.
The U.N. military commander,
Gen. Sean McKcown of Ireland,
conferred with Mobutu Tuesday
but told newsmen he had been un
able to secure firm pledges that
Mobutu would not attack. ' '
The U.N. spokesman quoted un
confirmed reports that detach
ments of Lumumba soldiers had
penetrated into Kasai Province
and reached the vicinity of Lulun
bourg, the provincial capital.
A minimum 15-year term for
first degree murder would be a
proper detriment, the warden
raid. He said he did not feci that
any more than 15 years would
help and might hinder rehabilita
tion as a minimum sentence.
Life term prisoners, the warden
said, are often model prisoners
and the hope of parole helps to
keep them that way.
Sen. Monroe Sweetland, D-Mil-waukle,
said he believed that cap
ital punishment stands in the way
of better justice because grand
juries, district attorneys, judges
and juries are reluctant to im
pose the death penalty. 1
The hearing was on a proposed
resolution that would give the
electorate a chance to vote the
requirements for capital punish
ment out of tho Oregon Constitu
tion.
Also before the legislature is a
bill that could become law only
with a constitutional change per
mitting the death penalty for
treason and for persons convicted
of murder while serving a life
term in prison.
Former Rep. Fred Meek, a
Portland Druggist, said he did not
oppose the principle of doing away
with capital punishment but said
the public wants assurance that
persons convicted of murder will
be put away for a long term
Meek said there is a need for a
mandator)' minimum term of 25
years not just the present sev
en-year minimum.
H. M. Randall, director of pa
role and probation for the state,
said that before parole the aver
age sentence works out to 12
years for persons convicted of
murder.

sale that- will begin Saturday are Joe O'Brien, loft, and
Orval T. Taggart, sale chairman. The candy is being de
livered by Camp Fire dads to homes of group leaders
throughout the Klamath Basin. A total of 500 cases con
taining 10,000 Boxes of mints were ordered. ,
Camp Fire Girls Poised
For Mint Day Operation
Saturday is "M Day" for hun
dreds of local Camp Fire Girls
and Blue Buds, their younger
counterparts. They will
augurate their annual mint candy
sale then.
The girls in pairs will ring
doorbells in their neighborhoods
offering to their neighbors the
luscious wafers that have become
traditional favorites locally.
All the girls will dress in their
colorful Camp Fire uniforms and
each will carry' a red, white and
blue mint kit, each loaded with
boxes of candy that sell for a
dollar each.
The sale has been authorized
by the Klamath County United
Fund, of which CFG is a partici
pating agency, and by the city
council.
Hundreds of cases of the candy
have been delivered this week
to the homes of group leaders
by a committee of Camp Fire
dads and by Orval T. Taggart,
sale chairman.
Those assisting have been Oren
Gossett, Joe Matlick, Donald
Schortgen, James Ray, Dr. F. W.
Dean, Elwin Brown, Howard Ami-
don, Dr. Bernard Schiff, Gene
Bailie, Frenchie Richard, Les
Bridge, Jack .Roper, Larry
French, Delbert Folk and Louise
Natale.
All profit from the sale will be
spent locally. Each Camp Fire
group gets to keep eight cents
of the profits from each box sold
and the remainder will be add
ed ' to the agency'fc operating
budget that helps maintain and
extend the CFG program in the
county.
The Camp Fire Girls are cur
rently celebrating 50 years as
an organization.' The organization
during that period has 'offered
activities which are designed to
help girls fulfill the Camp Fire
Law worship God, seek beauty,
give service, pursue knowledge,
be trustworthy, stay healthy, be
a good worker and be happy.
All girls seven through high
school age are eligible for membership.
Support for the organization
comes largely from United Fund,
but as is true with other grow
ing local organizations, addition
al funds are needed to supple
ment the general operating budget.
SALEM (AP) The question
before the House and Senate:
Shall the Chinook salmon be
named the official Oregon fish
Sen. Andrew 3. Naterlin, D-
Newport, in Senate Joint Resolu
tion 26, says: "Whereas there has
been designated an official flower,
bird and tree. ...
An official fish follows properly,
says Naterlin, and as properly it
would need to be the Chinook
salmon. "Just about every Oregon
stream has salmon," he says, and
adds that what with depletion be
cause of dams and other things
this is a good time to call it to
people's attention.
The Oregon Wildlife Federation
asked for the resolution. "They
tell me California and Washing
ton have state fish," said the sen
ator, who conceded, "I don't know
what they are." (In California
it's the California golden trout;
in Washington, the steelhead.
There is one more: in New Mexico
Police Tell
Of Activity
TULELAKE A complete report
of city poke arrests for the past
year was presented to Tulelake
City Council by police commis
sioner, Lyle Sherer, at the Feb.
20 meeting.
During 1960-61 there were 18
arrests for intoxicated driving; 96
drunk; 24 disturbing the peace;
four theft; three robbery outside;
18 vagrancy; five fraud; one
drunk driving, felony; one hit and
run, ielony; one cniia boating:
one child neglect; one suspicion
and nine violations of the liquor
laws.
Samples of the city water sup
ply were tested according to Cali
fornia State requirements. The
monthly test showed no evidence
of contamination.
Library grounds were discussed
with landscaping to begin soon.
No official committee or group
has taken the helm for this proj
ect as yet. Shrubs for the!
grounds will be taken from the
old high school building which Is
being razed.
the cutthroat trout is official.)
Salmon come quickly to mind
in Oregon's Statehouse. On the
carpeting in the Senate chamber
a salmon is pictured leaping from
a stream. Perhaps it Is a ChinooK.
Records do not say. Over the west
entrance to the Statehouse, three
salmon are headed north. Records
say they are indeed Chinook.
Purists raised a question on this
in 1937 when the Capitol was new,
What were salmon doing headed
north when that would put them
on a downstream run in the near-i
by Willamette?
State Archivist David C. Duni
way, dusting on tne records,
says when New York artist Eric
Ellerhusen was commissioned to
do the salmon and confessed he
had never seen one, a fine Chi
nook was iced and sent East as
his model. Direction of the Willam
ette's flow seems not to have in
terested him.
It has been quite a time since
Oregon lawmakers were con
cerned with a problem of the sort
raised by Joint Resolution No. 26,
and then the choice was as obvi
ous. The Douglas fir was named
the official tree in 1939. (Washing
ton, with perhaps an equal claim
to it, went for the hemlock).
In 1927 the legislature had a
double chore. It named a state
VanOrnian's
song, "Oregon, My Oregon," and
a state bird, the Western meadow-,
lark. It has been joined since on
the meadowlark by Wyoming, Ne-.
braska, Montana, Kansas and
North Dakota.
The state flower came early.
The Oregon grape was chosen in
1899, an era of much flower-choosing
in state capitols.
After getting a state fish Ore
gon still will lag. It has no state
animal. A few states do. And Wis
consin even has two the badger
and the white tailed deer.
What is the importance of this
sort of thing? Well, says Naterlin.
in .support of a state fish, it will
advertise an economic and recre
ational resource of the state; mav
do for Oregon what the potato has
done for Idaho. -
