The chamber said it opposes W 0 spending tax money for unneces sary items and would like to see In The- Ebil Strike OP' May M mtim the national budget "in the black for a change." And A few weeks ago M r. CG iOBWSS Congressman Al Cllman. of the Second Oregon district, told the Klamath County Chamber of Com merce that he thought chances were good lo get a $50,000 ap propriation lor another study of the algae problem in Upper Klamath Lake. In view of the fact that the al gae problem in Klamath Lake has been surveyed and resur- veyed and surveyed some more, the project aroused no enthusi asm. So, apparently, it has been dropped. Question: Do you reckon the dangerous heresv to the effect that IF WE DON'T GET IT SOMEBODY ELSE WILL might be declining? Let's put it this way: If the time should come in the U.S.A. when reckless spending, just to be spending. LOSES votes instead of WINNING votes, we will get economy and lower tax es. From Portland: Sol Maizcls, operator of the Aladdin Theater, has assembled the first foreign film festival for Portland. He has decided to call it an Art Film Hootenanny. That leads the Oregonian's film critic lo ask: "What's an Art Film Hootenanny?" He then proceed ed to answer his own question. Like this: "Well, it seems thai everything involving more than two people or two things is a hootenanny these days. It started with folk singers, and it's spreading to other areas. Four people get to gether for cards, and it's a Pi nochle Hootenanny. Two guys lake their gic friends for a moon light drive, and it's a Whoopee Hootenanny. So now we have a Film Hootenanny. It was inevit able." What does Webster say about it? His Collegiate Dictionary ig nores the word. But in his Un abridged he says: "Hootenanny: Originally in the sense of DINGUS. THINGUMA JIG. A fanciful coinage. Used also as a derogatory epithet. As similated in form to 'Hootin' An nie' a meeting of folk singers, especially for public entertain ment." Hmmmmm. What's a DINGUS? According to the Unabridged, it derives from the South Afri can DING, meaning thing. Any device; gadget; humorous sub stitute for a name not known or temporarily forgotten (slang. What's a thingumajig? W1-' I!'s synonymous with THING UMBOB which, incidentally, is an extension of older THINGUM That brings us to JIGGER. A jigger, among other things, is ONE WHO JIGS. A jig, by the w ay. is advance in which the danc ers move quickly up and down, or to and fro. A small cup or glass used to measure liquor, usually containing one and a half fluid ounces. Jigger is also synon ymous with dingus, thingumajig, thingumbob, etc. In conclusion: Aren't words wonderful? What would we do without dictionaries?

Negro leaders urged suspension of the anti-segregation demonstralions that led lo two wild nights of violence. Reinforced state and local po lice forces patrolled the city and a local unit of the National Guard remained on stand-by alert in case of a new outbreak of vio lence. Negro leaders at a mass meet ing of about 81)0 Negroes Friday night urged their followers to turn their efforts from demon strations in the streets to the ec onomic boycott launched against white merchants two weeks ago. Despite mcir pleas there were reports of rocks hurled at auto mobiles and a group of Negro youlhs threw a Molotov cocktail at the bacK of an appliance store Brickbat knocked the windshield out of a city truck cleaning up: the debris from the violence of the past two days.

In exploring possible park sites the commission settled on the Barkley Springs site as satisfy ing all their goals. During their study of possible sites the com mission, comprised of Chairman Silani, Dick Hicks and Glen Bow- en, found that there were no over night campsites between the Cali fornia state line and the Des chutes County line. This was true at tile time of the unit's initial studies in 1M. Work on Hagelstein Park began in March, 19S2, to give tourists and local people an overnight site to fill the gap within that area. Attack Made On Spy Case LONDON i UPII - The Labor party opposition appeared Satur day to he readying a sharp new at tack on the British government for its handling of the "disclo sure ' of the defection to the West of a high ranking Soviet agent, identified by the British press as Anatoli Dolnytsin. All British morning newspapers published the name of the master spy despite a British De fense Ministry "D" notice circu lated to the press Thursday urg ing against its publication. One afternoon newspaper published a photograph of a man with the face blanked out, identified as Dolnyt- ',?SC5. ...V . - iiC:aliMlUi. aa. JkeacM-. ' -'-t.1 WASHINGTON UP1 Labor Secretary W. Willard Wirtz met Saturday with the chief negotiator for the railroads in the Kennedy administration's continued elforts to block a nationwide rail strike. Wirtz and J. E. Wolfe; major pokesman fur the carriers, con ferred privately in Wirtz's office at the Labor Department. Neither Wirtz nor Wolfe would say what subject was under dis cussion, but it presumably con cerned the President's promise to seek legislation that would settle the four-year-old dispute over work rule changes advocated by the railroads. ""This is just a private chat," Wolfe told a reporter before en tering the secretary's olfice. "That's right, that's all that it ," Wirtz added. The unannounced meeting was the only sign of activity in the railroad dispute. Some officials predicted it would take legisla tion by Congress to resolve the crisis that could result in a na tionwide strike after July 29. President Kennedy s six-man fact-finding committee adjourned until Monday its investigation of the four-year-old battle over rail road demands for rule changes to abolish alleged "featherbedding," or unnecessary jobs. No negotiations were scheduled by rail union and management representatives, and Wirtz said he had no plans for a renewal of mediation al this time. The staff of the special com mittee was called in for work Sat urday on preparation of facts for the report scheduled lor submis sion to the President on July 19. That would give Kennedy three days to study the document before! transmitting it to Congress along with his recommendations for dis posing of the controversy. Chiefs of four unions involved. in the dispute have left Washing ton for the weekend, although their deputies remained on call. Wolfe planned to stay in the city to lollow any developments. There was little hope in gov ernment circles that any agree ment would be reached before the July 29 deadline when anoth er strike could occur if railroads go ahead with plans In place job reducing rules into effect. "This one will go lo Congress," said one government source who has been close lo the negotiations. The reasoning is that the rail roads are not willing to settle the bulk of the issues unless the unions agree lo a sharp reduction in the number of firemen 37,000 aboard freight and yard Income lives.

Russ-Red MOSCOW lUPP Sino-Soviel negotiations on the future of world communism came to an apparently inconclusive end Sat urday with a probable agreement to resume talks in the near fu ture. Chinese Communist and Soviet negotiators met for three hours Saturday and then adjourned for the weekend. The Chinese were expected lo leave for Peking early this week. A clear hint of Die outcome of the eight days of talks was con tained in a Peking People's Daily editorial published Saturday. It said: "If the current difference cannot he resolved this year, they can wail until nexl year." It was believed the two idns have agreed lo disagree for the lime being and avoid a public appearance of an open and ir revocable rupture. The two delegations met al the "House of Reception" in Lenin Hills overlooking Moscow Satur day afternoon, after a brief re cess Saturday morning when (hey held separate delegation meetings. The Sino - Soviet talks share the attention of Kremlin leaders with the nuclear test ban nego tiations opening here Monday be tween Russia and the United States and Britain. Diplomatic observers pointed to a declaration issued in Peking as evidence that the deep ideolo gical and political differences of inlcrnalional communism may be resolved eventually without a for mal split. The declaration said if the cur rent differences cannot be re solved now, they can wait until tomorrow, or nexl year. II called Ihe situation "very grave," how ever.

Averell Harriman and Britain's Lord Haiisham fly to Moscow Sunday with detailed pro posals offering Russia a choice of a partial or a comprehensive nu clear test ban. The two men Saturday com pleted final preparations for the crucial Moscow confrontation Monday. Diplomatic sources said Hani man and Haiisham, who are tak ing large teams of high level ad visers and scientists with them, were empowered to negotiate an immediate ban on all but under ground tests if Russia refuses in ternational controls. Premier Nikita S. Khrushchev in his July 2 speech in East Berlin expressed readiness to sign a partial test ban accord.
