In The- Day's lews By FRANK JENKINS At the Whiskeytown dam dcdi cation down in Shasta county the other day, President Kennedy told his hearers that our nation faces a tremendous need for new recre ation facilities for a population that will reach 330 MILLION by the year 2,000. At the same 'time, he pointed out that the work week has come down from 53 hours to the pres ent statutory 40 hours. He added that as machines TAKE MORE AND MORE JOBS FROM MEN the work week will be still fur ther reduced, thus leaving people with more time on their hands and with an increasing need for recreation facilities within the reach of the average person. Question: How will it leave them in the way of dough in their pockets with which to PAY for the recre ation facilities they will need? And- ln San Francisco the olher dav. there was a meeting of some 300 business, political, - educational and civic leaders.

President Kerr of the Uni versity of California, who pre sided at the San Francisco meet ing, made this statement: "Popu lation forecasts for the year 2020 57 years from now indicate that California will then have Ml MILLION people more than the present population of the British Isles." He might have added that it will be equal to a THIRD of the present population of the United States.

Breakfast Kicks Off United Fund Campaign Klamath County's 1963 United Fund drive was kicked off this morning with a breakfast at the Winema Hotel, and campaign workers were told their job is "helping people to see what hap pens when we give In United Fund." The statement came from the Rev. Laing Sibbet, pastor nl Peace Memorial Presbyterian Church and keynote speaker for the kick-off breakfast. -Paul Meier, campaign general chairman, reported that the Pilot Campaign surpassed its goal by raising more than $40,000.

Sibbet Told the breakfast-Lom,ct - "Before we can accomplish any thing in the world, we must have a motive. Without a molive, we just plain do not move." He said the workers must get across to the public the "main reason for doing this." The minister said the $148,311 goal this year breaks down to "1 or 2 cents per person per day in Klamath Falls." He mentioned that although high taxes are given as an ex cuse for not giving to United Fund, the fund is actually a way of escaping higher taxes. "It's something we do in thanks giving and it is something we do in protection." he said. He said without the fund, gov ernment would step in to fill gaps left by the agencies supported by the campaign and taxes would be raised even higher. Further, Rev. Sibbet said: "We'll never be able to make a free society work unless we work in a Iree society." Without the fund, he said, "the deepest needs of the community go sliding into oblivion." He said in closing: "Our faith does draw tn us Ihe means to do the impossible, but 1 or 2 cents per person per day in Klamath Falls is not the impossible."

The Chief Executive said U.

Doom Clock Moved Back On Bulletin CHICAGO (UPP-The clock of "nuclear doom" on the cover of the Bulletin of the Atomic Scion lists has been moved back for the second time in 17 years in recognition of the nuclear test ban agreement. In January, 1960. the clock on the magazine cover moved back from two minutes to midnight to seven minulcs until midnight This, the magazine said, was be cause the public and government. leaders had begun to recognize the "revolutionary consequences" of nuclear warfare. The cover clock first appeared on the Bulletin in June. 1947, a year and a half after its found ing. The first clock had its hands sel at eight minutes until mid night. The hands ef the clock were moved forward to three minutes until midnight in October, 1949. after the Soviet Union exploded its first alnm bomb. The hands were moved forward lo two min utes until midnight in September, 1953, after the United States and Russia bolh tested hydrogen bombs. Dr. Eugene Rabinowitch, editor of the Bulletin, said the clock is "intended to reflect basic changes in the level of continu ous danger in which mankind lives in the nuclear age. and will continue living, until society ad justs its basic attitudes and insti tutions to the challenge of sci ence."

This week'i contest games ap pear in today's papej KLAMATH FALLS, OREGON, VATICAN CITY (UPI) Fathers of the Ecumen ical Council opened the second session of their historic Vatican gathering today with debate on a document defining the nature 6f the church and their own author ity. They found it generally acceptable, although a num ber of changes were proposed. The first working session of the reconvened council was devoted to general discussion of a draft document entitled "de ecclasia" "about the church." The contents of the draft one of 17 awaiting council action still are secret. It is understood that the " 10 " 'document enhances t ll e authority and orestice of Un hUhnnc oC ,,lnn.c nf " the Pope in the government of the Roman Catholic Church. It also assigns a more important role to the Catholic laity in church life and contemplates the rais ing of deacons to an ecclesi astical rank. One passage which may have an important bearing on Christian unity recognizes that all baptized Christians are in some way re lated to the mystical body of Christ even though not members of the Catholic church. At a press' briefing following the closed session in St. Peters Basilica, a spokesman said the "general consensus" of the coun cil fathers who spoke today was that the document is acceptable as a whole and can be proceeded with as a vehicle for debate. He said a formal vole on the general acceptability will be taken Tuesday. Then the council will proceed with a chapter by chapter debate on details of the document. The spokesman said that most of the speakers today took the -position that the new draft 'schema is a good foundation on which (o build and that it will be "helpful to the ecumeni cal movement." The Pope in his opening ad dress invited them to make that role larger and more important than it has been in the past. He said he would welcome "more help and support, a more elec tive and responsible collabora tion" from his "brother bishops." The Pope made clear there is Deaths Mar Deer Hunt By l ulled Press International The first day of Oregon's gen eral deer hunting season Saturday resulted in three deaths, two caused by heart attacks and nnc by a fall.

SEPTEMBER 30, 1963 no question of repealing the dog ma of papal infallibility formu lated bv tlie last Ecumenical Council in 1870. But he said the time has now come" to spell out the relationship of the bishops to the Pope, and the way in which they share his authority as successors to the apostles. The 1870 council was supposed to do tins, but its work was interrupted by the arrival of Ital ian troops in Rome. Thus for more than 90 years, Catholic doc trine about the church and Uie powers of the Pope has stood in what many theologians regard as a one-sided or unfinished condi tion. In an oblique reference to tlie lact that papal supremacy is a major bone of contention between Catholics and non-Catholics, Pope Paul voiced hope that a redifini tion of tlie Catholic position by the council "may make the path towards common agreement eas ier. He said this task will be "the principal concern of this session of the council," which is scheduled lo continue through Dec. 4 Salary Cut Move Filed SALEM (UPI)-A preliminary initiative petition for a reduction in legislators' salaries was filed here today with the secretary of state.

NEW YORK (UPI) - Secre tary of State Dean Rusk and British Foreign Secretary Lord Home today held a 75 -minute breakfast conference devoted principally to subjects before the current session of the U.

Rusk and Home, according to diplomatic sources, touched brief ly on the problem in the South west Pacific where Indonesia's President Sukarno has vowed to "destroy" the new commonwealth country of Malaysia.
