NOW PLAYING llO'iUHO CWCINt """SI fTS FRANKLIN mm mum don't get enough of this vitamin' A Since vitamin B-12 it found in all tlie cells of the body, it is considered an essential element of the diet. Meat is one of the rich est sources of this vitamin, espe cially red meat. In children it is an important factor in stimulating normal growth. Without it growth is stunted. In both children and adults it is necessary to the full develpment or maturation of our red blood cells. A deficiency of vitamin B-12 is associated with anemia. Q I am a 25-ycar-oid housewife with no children. Every month I liave terrible menstrual cramps riiey are so bad I have to go to bed with an electric pad on my abdomen. Is there any other way to get relief? A This is a common complaint and the cause is often difficult to determine. Nevertheless your doc lor should make a thorough check lor a possible cause. Aspirin or a combination of pain - relieving drugs often helps to lake the edge off the pain but rarcrly gives complete relief. If the periods are associated with passing large clots, your doc tor may want to let you try small doses throughout the period of an anticoagulant drug, such as hepa rin, as soon as the pain starts. Q I read your article on min eral oil. I have been using it in my nose to prevent hard crusts. Is this harmful? A This will cause no harm If you use a minimal amount of the oil, preferably not more than every other day. A My 17-year-old son has Iwo small painless growths on either side of the back of his tongue. A throat specialist examined h i m and said it was nothing to worry about. The lumps have been pres. ent for three or four months. What do you think? A I cannot say what thes lumps are but, If they do not feel hard and stony, you can be sure they are not cancer. In fact. if they were, the doctor who ex amined Ihcm would have told you so. My best advice to you is to watch them for a few weeks to sec whether they are increas ing in size. If they arc definitely getting larger see your doctor again. If not, your son should try lo ignore them. Q I have read that extreme nervous tension can cause many physical ailments. Could it cause anemia? A The answer is "no" but se vered anemia can lead to serious changes in the nerves themselves.

(UPI1-A boastful admitted forger told ar- cslmg olficcrs Saturday that h. signed a judge's name to a court order lo get his release from a Texas prison. Bui Charles Chapman, 27, Hol lywood, later would only grin and refused to confirm or deny the lulo of escaping custody on forged writ of habeas corpus. "He won't confirm or deny it, said Sgt. Paul Schooling. "Everylimc you ask him, he just sort of grins and the most definite thing he'll say now is he believes there was some mistake on his release. He said he didn't stick around long enough to find out what it was." But earlier, officers who arrest ed him on suspicion of forgery said he told them: "Did you hear about the guy in Texas who forged his own writ to the warden for his release? Well, that was me. An ex-convict of San Quentin, Chapman told Schooling he served time in Huntsville, Tex., state prison for two or three months and then filed for a writ of ha beas corpus. "He gets vague af ter that, on just how the release was accomplished," the detective said. "He's got quite an ego," School ing said. "He was bragging about his prowess as a printer, said he made up fictitious checks." Po lice said they found a number of money orders believed taken in ccent burglaries when they searched Chapman's apartment. Schooling said he would notify Texas authorities, and try to es tablish whether there was any truth to the story of how Chap man got his release. personnel at 9:30 in Bonanza on that date. Big equipment will be needed for the project. Dump trucks should not be smaller than 10 cubic yards in size; two load ers will work out of two cinder pits. Also necessary will be crawl- er tractors with blades, carryalls and road graders. The Accelerated Public Works Program was started in Klamalh County last October and has been going ahead off and on since that time. During October and November considerable work was done and about 85 men were em ployed for several weeks through the Klamath Falls employment of- lice. Since Christmas the work has been done on a limited basis. Lea reports. Accomplished to date are the recreation development at Gerber Keservoir, timber stand improvement work, and the road development planning. Timber has liccn thinned on 353 acres; timber seed planted on 212 acres; and 165 acres has been planted to seed ling trees of ponderosa pine unpping operations are going on ngnt now. At Gerber Reservoir there will be installed 50 family camp units two boat loading docks and boat ramps. Tlie, campgrounds are cleaned up now and tables and facilities will be installed this spring.

LA KEVIEW Thirty eight stock holders and 11 visitors were pres ent for the annual meeting of the Lakevicw Water Users held at the Westside Grange Hall on Monday, March 4. During the election of board members Phil Lynch and Elmo Angcle were named to succeed themselves. Angcle has served sine 1941 and is the oldest mem ber on the board in years of service. Jess Roberts is president ol the group; Erwin Abramson, vice president, and Angcle, secre tary-treasurer. Others on the board are Lynch, Clyde Fenimore, Walter Leehmann Jr., Tony Web er, and Lloyd Mecham, manager. The board serves 120 stockhold ers. A report on the water supplies revealed that they appear to be adequate for the nearly 12,000 acres under the district. In an interview with Ancele. John Kicsow. countv a tr e n t. learned that in 1938 farmers bought the project from t h e Goose Lake Valley Irrigation Company for $10,000. At that time 550,000 was borrowed from FHA to put the project in workable older. Since that time over $900,- 000 of OM, contract sales, and PMA payments have been put into operation, maintenance and development of the project. A major development last summer was the doubling of the Cotton wood Reservoir capacity at a cost of $71,000. A total of 8.700 acre feet of water can now be stored and a proposed fuse-plug will in crease this to 9.600 acre feet. The noon meal on the day of the meeting was served by the women of the Westside Grange. Winchester, Va., a strategic point in the Shenandoah Valley, changed hands 68 times during the Civil War. Editors note: The Board of Ed ucation has postponed approval of a course on Communism lor pub lie high schools lo give the mat ter more iludv. This is the first of a series of dispatches on this issue.) By ZAN STARK Lolled Press International SALEM (LTD The Board of Education has decided to take an other look before approving a pro posed course on communism for! Oregon s public high scnoois. Educators and board members favor the idea of the program to make students more aware of tlie dangers of the communist system by explaining to them wnat com munism really is. They feel certain that education is the only adequate defense. But they want to be very sure the program they propose is the right one. The program has been under consideration since 1961. As su perintendent of Public Instruction Leon Minear explained at last Wednesday's board meeting, high school principals throughout the the state have asked for guidance for teaching such a course. Minear pointed out that the American Legion, the American Bar Association and the National Education Association favor teach ing about communism in the schools. At Wednesday's meeting. Board Member Thomas L. Scanlon, Port land, pointed out there was a lack of understanding of our own system. S. E. Brogoitti, Helix, asked, how can we teach about commu nism without actually teaching communism? Are we going to teach communism or just teach about it? Francis I. Smith, Portland, countered, "communism can't be minimized; the facts must be put smack on the table." Scanlon said he felt the teacher guide, "Understanding the Nature of Communism," gave too much status to communism. Maybe what we need instead is a Voice of America program in our schools." he said. am not opposing teaching about communism. I just think that this is the wrong way to;go about it." i Mrs. J. B. Caldwell. Oregon City, may have been voicing the board's feeling when she com mcnted "teaching how commu nism and democracy work is tcr rilic. but we must consider tlie approach we take in this matter." Minear said tlie communism publication designed as a teach ing aid to be distributed only to teachers was developed "witli tlie feeling that to be forewarned is to be forearmed.

Douglas Hales, of the New York Times Albany bureau, wrote: "Gov. Rockefeller appeared headed today (Feb. 27) for a ma jor setback on his proposal to raise $103 million more in levies on motor vehicles and on the li quor industry." Many Republicans in the legis lature are refusing to sunnort Rockefeller on the auto and liquor fees. Democrats arc all against him and, also, against reduced spending. If the legislators vole the way they are talking. Hie gov ernor's budget will be voted out of balance and he will be in bad trouble, with more to come. The Journal reported that Rock efeller will need even more new money next year. Tlie Journal quoted a Rockefeller lieutenant as saying: "Tlie revenue he needs this year would be peanuts com pared to what he'll need next year if the economy doesn't real ly take off." 11 appears, therefore, that Hock-1 efcller and President Kennedy are on the same Sxit.
