The labor dispute in the wood
products industry was a major
factor affecting employment, in
Klamath County during the
month of July. The secondary
effect of this dispute was, how
ever, not as great as had been
anticipated. Leonard T. Sytsma.
State Employment Office mana
ger, said this week.
Unemployment dropped slight
ly from the high level of late
June. Conversely, employment
showed a slight increase. A total
of 268 non-agricultural job open
ings were received by this office
during July 1963 as compared to
222 during June 1963 and 307
during July 1962.
Retail sales were generally re
ported to be good. However, sev
eral retailers indicated a drop in
sales toward the end of July.
Agricultural employment iiv
creased during July. Most of this
increase was a result of hoy
harvest activities.
Rate of insured unemployment
for the week ending July 25, 1963.
was 8.7 iper cent compared to
four weeks ago, 9.8 per cent; one
year ago, 3 per cent, and two
years ago, 3.8 per cent.
Klamath County had the high
est rate of insured unemploy
ment in the state during the
week ending July 25, 1963. For
the week ending July 6, 1963, the
insured unemployment rate for
the U.S. was 3.7 per cent and
for Oregon 3.8 per cent.
Non-agricultural employment
in Klamath County is expected
to rise during August. The la
bor dispute will affect the amount
of increase in employment. Ag
ricultural employment is expect
ed to' increase to a peak level
during the potato harvest in late
September and October. No short
age of labor is expected except
in a few highly skilled occupations.

For the past 20 years Mrs.
Kanyamunyu has worked with
various African Girl Guidance
groups, which were originally
patterned after tlie English or
ganization. Now, however, Ugan
da wants to form its own pro
gram for Girl Guides and have
it resemble tlie Girl Scouts.
During her stay, she has visit
ed tlie various units at Camp
Smith Creek, each consisting o(
a group of open-air cabins, tents
or lean-tos. There is an aver
age of 80 girls and 20 counselors
at the camp. Mrs. Kanyamunyu
watched them at their campfires,
cookouts. preparing for overnight
hikes, doing camp chores and
woodcrafts, swimming and folk
dancing. It was just as education
al for tlie girls, however, as
they constantly plied Mrs. Kan
yamunvu with questions about
her ; ow n country and its cus
toms.
She showed them tlie every
day dress of tlie Uganda house
wife, although usually she wore
tlie bright blue unilorm of tlie
Girl Guides. At present, tlie
guide counselors would not be
allowed to wear (lie uniform worn
by their American counterpart
On special days and Sundays tlie
Camp Smith Creek counselors
wear tlieir "greenie" which con
sists of green shorts and knee
length socks, white blouses and
green string tie.
Mrs. Kanyamunyu speaks Eng
lish quite well although it is ap
parently an Ugandan trait to sub
stitute the sound of "I" with an
" Her only real problems in ad
justing to American living were
the colder climate and sonic of
the foods. Accustomed to the
much simpler fare 'of Uganda
such as spinach, sweet potatoes,
peas, dried beans and tlie main
stay of cooked green bananas,
she found American food very
rich. Ugandans also drink a great
deal of milk and their butter
has considerably more "flavor'
as it is kept for at least a month
before being used.
Mrs. Kanyamunyu said it will
be sometime before they can ap
ply to tlieir own country what
they have learned of camping
here, as there are several large
obstacles to be first overcome.
The most basic one is financial.
Tlie people of Uganda are still
quite poor and each family must
pay for whatever education is
received by tlieir children. This
leaves very little money for camp
equipment. (This has also sharp
ly reduced Die practice of mul
tiple marriages, she said).
Even with camping supplies
available, anotlier existing prob
lem would prevent tlie Girl
Guides from pitching tents away
from town. In recent years
great areas of grassland have
been burned off, depleting the
food supply of the lions. Conse
quently, tlie hungry lions would
quickly shorten the outdoor vis
its of tlie tender young campers.
Before going back to her own
country, Mrs. Kanyamunyu is
returning to Columbia University
where she has just spent three
weeks to continue with a series
of lectures being given in a spe
cial leadership program.
