KLAMATH COUNTY CliAMHI OF COMMIKCE
Two o the chamber's commit
tees, whose activities, for the most
part, go unnoticed, are meeting
weekly these days to carry out
one ot the chamber s most ig
nificant functions. They are the
National Affairs and the State &
Local Affairs committees whose
job it is to screen and study the
flood of legislation being intro
duced in the Congress and the leg
islature, respectively.
It should be obvious that no
committee that is not ready to
devote full time to the task can
possibly review every piece of
legislation that is introduced. But
by checking Oregon Tax Re
search, Associated Oregon Indus
tries and other publications which
summarize important slate legis
lation and by reviewing U.S
Chamber and other publications
for legislation at the national level
the committees can pinpoint those
pieces of proposed legislation
which are of major concern to this
area.
What each of the committees is
looking (or, in essence, is legisla
tion which could affect you as a
business or professional man or
woman or as a citizen of Klam
ath County, or which could affect
the economy of Klamath County.
The committees meet every Tues
day. National Affairs at 7 a.m.
and State and Local Affairs at
4 p.m. Should the deliberations of
either committee result in recom
mendations to the chamber board
for action, a minimum loss of
time will be experienced since the
chamber board meets every Wed
nesday noon.
Even with the guidance already
at hand, neither committee can
he certain it will consider every
piece of legislation it should w ith
out the help of individual mem
bers of the chamber or other citi
zens of the county. Each commit
tee stands ready to study any leg
islation which may be of signifi
cance. Such matters may be re
ferred to the committees by con
tacting either Noel Flynn, direc
tor, or Ross Ragland, chairman
of the National Affairs Commit
tee; Floyd Wynne, director, or
Orth Sisemnre, chairman of the
Slate & Local Affairs Com
mittee. Or. a request for study of
a specific piece of legislation can
be referred to either of the com
mittees by calling the chamber
office at TU 4-5193.
Other chamber committeees oc
casionally engage in legislative ac
tion when their specific field of in
terest is involved. Through its
Roads & Highways Committee,
the chamber recently reaffirmed
Flu Blamed
For Deaths
By I'nilrd Press International
Government health authorities
have reported a jump in deaths
blamed on an outbreak of flu
sweeping across the nation's East.
The influenza outbreak was of
epidemic proportions in some cit
ies. The serious Asian flu strain
was confirmed to be active in five
states and schools were closed
and work forces sapped in some
of the nation's largest population
centers.
The Federal Communicable Bi-
scase Center at Atlanta. Ga., re
ported deaths blamed on influen
za and pneumonia were 23 per
cent above expectations last week.
In a check of 108 key cities.
the CDC found a total of 705 such
deaths, 157 more than had been
anticipated. Since the flu outbreak
began four weeks ago, the CDC
t said, the weekly average of deaths
has been running 19 per cent
above expected levels.
There were most victims in
Sliddle and South Atlantic slates.
Flu outbreaks were conlirmed in
the District of Columbia and 13
Stales North Carolina. Virginia
Maryland. Delaware. Kansas, II
linois, Georgia. Maine. Vermont,
South Carolina. New York, Ohio
and ?.T.?a:"husctts.
a position it has bold for many
years in opiwsition to bonding for
special highway projects in Ore
gon. Just this week, through the
upper Wamath Lake-Recreation
Committee, the chamber went on
record in favor of SJR 7 which
would create an interim commit
tee to give thorough study to Ore
gon's wildlife resources and man
agement.
While stands taken by the cham
ber can be said to represent a
majority opinion of some 500
business and professional men
and women, individual letter
wires and telephone calls to
Klamath County's legislative del
egation and to Oregon's Congres
sional delegation are also encour
aged. As representatives of the
people, they can ask for nothing
better than to have the people let
them know what their wants and
wishes are.

Hand-Holding Revolts
Father Of Teen-ager
By ANN LANDERS
Dear Ann Landers: Our daugh
tcr is fourteen years old. She is
dating a boy the same age
This kid is at
our house al
most every eve
ning.
The thing I ob
ject to is this:
These two can't
keep their hands
off one another
They are cither
holding hands, or one is lying with
his head in the oilier one's lap.
or thev are both lying on the
sofa watching TV. All summer
long they ran around barefooted,
and if they weren't holding hands
ihey were holding feet.
My wife seems to think it is
perfectly all right. I think it is
revolting. If they act like this at
14 what will they be doing three
years from now?
My daughter and my wife both
read your column. Please give
them an eyeful. Thank you. OLD
FASHIONED DAD
Dear Dad: You bet It's revolt-
ing and if I were you I'd revolt.
Teen-agers who don't have enough
self-respect to keep their hands
off each other should be told In
blunt language and it's the par
ents who should do the telling. It
sounds as If these two kids have
a one track mind and the tralfic
is pretty heavy.
Dear Ann Landers: You have
mentioned in your column that
parents should not allow their chil
dren to touch things when they vis
it in the homes of other people.
Now I wish you'd print some
thing about young children who
feed pets when no one is looking.
My cousin and his wife called
on us yesterday. They brought
their two youngsters along. The
six-year-old gave the cat several
caramels and the poor thing got
her teeth stuck together and it
w as terrible. The other youngsters
gave our puppy some putalo salad
and dill pickle. She got so sick
we had to call the vet in the
middle of the night.
Our canary died several months
ago and now I recall that it was
just about the lime these people
last visited us.
Please tell folks to teach their
children not to feed pets w hen they
are guests. Tliank you. BIG
VET BILLS
Dear Rig Bills: I'm also telling
parents who take their children
visiting to keep an eve on them.
Youngsters should not be free to
wander around in other peoples
homes and get into mischief.
Dear Ann Landers: We are up
to our necks in debts. My bus
band likes to gamble and he lies
to me constantly. He swears he
has paid certain bills. Later I get
letters from the stores and tele
phone calls from the credit mana
gers, finally the collectors show
up in person.
I learned recently that he bor
rowed $300 from some close
friends. These people are kind
hearted and have no extra mon
The man was laid oif last
week and now I just can't face
them.
I want to take a part-time job
and pay these friends back. My
husband says no, that he'll pay
them as soon as he can. In the
meantime, I can't sleep at night
worrying about our debts and the
family's reputation.
I need some advice. Can vou
help? MONEY WORRIES -
Dear Worries: By all means go
to work and start paying back-
the money. You'll feel better, and
it will be a demonstration of good
faith.
Your husband sounds like a
compulsive gambler who needs
help. Gambler's Anonymous may
nc tne answer. Write lor infor
mation to the national headquar
ters of Gambler's Anonvmous.

Employment Record Sef
It has been estimated that only
1 per cent of all songs copy
righted and published in the U.S.
ever achieve success, according
lo the Encyclopaedia Britannica.
SALEM Employment in Ore
gon continued on its record set-
ling pace in January, David H.
Cameron, commissioner of the
State Department of Employment
announced.
Estimates based on employer's
reports snow that 664,200 people
had jobs at mid-January. Al
though employment fell by 15,000
from December, the decline was
less than can ordinarily be ex
pected. There were 17,500 more
workers employed than a year
ago.
Unemployed workers numbered
45.800, up 7.400 from December!
but 10,400 fewer than in January
last year. The seasonally adjusted
rate of unemployment fell a little
further to a flat four per cent.
This contrasts very favorably
with the national experience
where the adjusted rate rose
slightly to 5.8 per cent in January.
The jobs lost from December
to January were in the main.
those that customarily disappear
during this period. Slackening off
from Die holiday season resulted
in a 9,900 employment drop in
retail trade, 3,000 in federal gov
ernment, and 1,000 in service es
tablishments. Both food products
and contract construction de
creased by 1,400 from December's
employed level.
The year-to-year increases in
jobs were found mostly in non
manufacturing. Construction en
gaged the labors of 6,200 more
workers this January than last.
Weatlier conditions remained ex
cellent for outside work until
the last week of the month and
the damage caused by the Octo
ber storm has not yet been to
tally erased.
