Club Hears Plea Voiced For Project IHWSVnn - Pauline Davis, assemblywoman. 2nd district, told the Dunsmuir Women's Club on Tuesday that now is the time to set the Box Canyon Dam project underway in south ern Siskiyou County to develop a much needed recreational po tential. She said $2,800,000 is available as a state grant under the terms of the Davis-Grunsky act if the Siskiyou County board of supervisors initiates the ncces sarv action to obtain the cr.int Mrs. Davis recommended that the Siskiyou County Economic Commission provide statistical backing for an Area Redevelop ment grant of two million dol lars to augment state funds and that all possible groundwork for the dam construction be under taken without delay. Neither the board of supervis ors nor the citizens of Siskiyou Couny are assuming obligation in this procedural action, and acceptance of funds available could be weighed against costs involved as the contract specifi cations are drawn up, Mrs. Da vis pointed out. The Women's Club members endorsed Mrs. Davis' stand and will ask action from the board of supervisors. In other remarks at the lunch eon meeting, Mrs. Davis out lined possible legislation (nr ed ucation and for billboard con trol and asked that a study and stand on the Udall water plan be a matter of personal respon sibility on the part of every voting citizen. "You have a right to be heard," Mrs. Davis said. Resolution Opposes Cigarettes PORTLAND iUPIi - Th Oregon Society of Internal Med. nine came out against cigarette smoking and cigarette advertis ing in a hard-hitting resolution Wednesday.

Persons who stop smoking now cut their chance of getting Jung cancer in half, the society said, and added that cigar and pipe smokers who do not inhale have much less chance of get ting the disease. The society resolved In "re cognize publicly the alarming rise. ..of lung cancer and emphy sema due to cigarette smoking, and deplore the methods of cig arette advertising now used, di rected primarily at convincing young people the pleasures and fulfillments of life can be so easily acquired." .The society is composed of about 170 specialists in internal medicine, including lung ail ments.

UPI Tolephoto Not only does the Fond and Drug Administration make sure that the foods we eat are safe, clean and properly labeled; it also keeps tabs .on the drugs we use. One of the worst abuses is the illegal traffic in amphetamine. This drug which is legally sold only 'on a doctor's pro scription is bootlegged as "pep pills," "bennies" or "stay-awake pills" lo truck drivers and oth ers. Truck stops, drug stores when caught bootlegging these pills are subject to heavy fines and the owners to imprison ment. It is particularly dangerous or truck drivers to 'take these pills while driving because such side effects as impaired judg ment, and temporary mental de-, rangement are common and can cause tragic accidents. In youths these pills are often the first step to juvenile delinquen cy or experimenting with dan gerous habit-forming drugs. A great variety of drug ship ments were seized recently lie cause they made claims that could not be substantiated. A powdered whey was falsely la beled lo indicate that it wmld neutralize stomach acids and promote digestion. Vitamin products were seized because the label claimed they would do away with tiredness, loss of awtite, lack of energy, coated tongue, looth decay, con stipation, poor eyesight, bloated abdomen, heart disease, painful joints, heartburn, mental depres sion "you name it; we cure it." There is no drug or com bination of drugs in the world that can do all these things. The FDA is especially skep tical of alleged cancer cures be cause none has yet been proved to be effective. Other seizures were made of drugs that were being sold after having been You're Invited to Attend Our 9th Annual Marionette School Saturday - 2:00 FREE Soft Drinks and Cookies!!

Drugs imported from abroad and not yet given clearance for sale in this country were also withdrawn.

HERALD AND NEWS, Klamath Records Cloud Belief That Being Fat Invites Heart Attack, Stroke And Death By HE LOS SMITH I i'l Scit-nre Kdllpr NEW VOHK iL'PI'-A small cloud has come over the widely held medical belief that to tc persistently fat through adult years is to invite a heart attack or a stroke and premature death. It didn't work out that way among 527 men lor whom long term medical records were complete. They were veteran railroad men and had been ex amined periodically by the rail road's medical department. But they were exceptional in that all of them had registered abnormally high hlood pres sures in at least two of these examinations before they were 50. This, however, would be ex pected to make them more prone to heart attacks, strokes and premature death, according to ( lo general medical view. It was true for these men w ith the exception of heart attacks. "Severe, fixed, diastolic hy (XTtcnsion was associated with significantly increased inci dence of cerebral vascular ac cidents (strokes), medical disa bility and premature death," said Dr. George K. Dimond. But, he added, "the incidence of coronary heart disease was Community. Qalswdak FRIDAY LO O SI, fi to 7:30 p.m., prawns and fish fry. Moose Home.

As for being persistently over weight. Dimond found that among hypertensive railroad men it was "associated with a significantly increased frequen cy of diabetes but was not re lated to the development of coronary heart disease, cer ebral vascular accident or longevity." tin the basis of this finding, he had this opinion: "Sustained weight reduction in obese pa tients may tower the incedcncc of diabetes and le desirable for many reasons, but relative body weight in a hypertensive group is not important in tlie develop ment of coronary heart disease. Dimond is physician for the New York Central. The 527 men were of varying ages when first medically examined in l!OS. Dimond studied their ac cumulated records up to 12. By Own 318 were dead and :it still were actively' employed. Of Uie dead, 3D per cent lived to 70 or older.

On tlie other hand, their attacks were usually much more severe. In reporting to a tcclinical journal of the American Medi cal Association, Dimon recalled that as recently as 1039 an eminent medical scientist agreed with tlie general medi cal view that hypertension is "a direct precursor of coronary heart disease." ; In 1953 tlus same scientist re versed his opinion and in 1961 he "felt that in men tlie re lationship of tlie two diseases is not too clear." On tlie other hand, another eminent scientist reported only last year that hy pertension "greatly increases the risk" of both strokes and heart attacks.
