Figures released Friday by Secretary of State Clay Myers show that 63.4 per cent of the 1,158,711 voters registered for the primary cast ballots statewide. Theis is higher than the 55.8 per cent voter turnout for the 1970 primary. Republicans generally turned out better, with a 64.8 per cent average statewide rompared to 64.0 per cent for Democrats. A total of 420,523 Democrats, 301,510 Republicans and 12,518 independents voted in the May 23 election. Among the 36 counties, Jackson had the lowest overall turnout with 56.9 per cent casting ballots.

Are heavier persons more likely to get diabetes? Mrs.

K. A It appears so from statistics on the subject. However, the tendency toward diabetes seems to run in families, regardless of weight. Can a diabetic have surgery? D. A Yes, and many of them do successfully.

With modern care, the risk is only slightly higher than for a person with normal blood sugar level. After treatment of my urethra I developed what the doctor called diverticula in my passage. He removed it once and now I need it again. Can't this need be eliminated? Concerned. A These tiny pouchlike abnormalities often recur, and there is no guarantee they can be prevented.

Nonsurgical measures give relief, but do not cure the diverticula. What causes a fatty p.p. A Chronic malnutrition, as may be caused by alcoholism or poor diet or the two combined. Fatty liver also occurs in some cases of diabetes, obesity and disorders of metabolism such as galactosemia in which sugar conversion is impaired. (Dr.

Andelman welcomes letters outlining problems which he may discuss in future columns. He regrets, however, that he cannot personally answer mail. (C) Grtl Natural Corp. CHICAGO Do you rocommond th nwr drugs for dioboUs which may bo token by mouth? Arc thy as good as insulin shots? F. T.

A The drugs tolbutamide, tolazamide, chlorpropamide, phenformin and acetohexamide, known by various trade names, are prescribed as insulin substitutes which may be taken by mouth. They do suppress hyperglycemia (a high level of blood sugar), but I don't consider them as reliable as insulin. How effective they are depends upon the individual. There sometimes are side effects. Cen diet alone be used to cure diabetes? F.

M. A Yes, if you mean to control diabetes. We don't cure diabetes in the sense we cure other diseases treat them and make the condition disappear. Diet alone, however, is useful only in persons with so-called potential diabetes or a prediabetic condition or mild cases of the disease. Special diets are followed by all diabetics, most of whom take insulin or other medication as well.

Is diabetes a greater danger when it occurs later in life? G. G. A No. The adult diabetic, if he follows his doctor's orders, may live just as long as the nondiabetic of the same age. Diabetes in children, however, presents a greater Rock Fans One of thousands of rocks on sale this weekend at the Mineral Minors Rock Pow Wow at Oregon State Fairgrounds is examined by a mem- ber of the sponsoring group, Keith Watson, 9, 4398 Country Lane NE.

(Statesman photo) Salem Police Captain Appeals Demotion to Lieutenant Rank (Story also on page 1.) Veteran Salem Police Capt. Walter Esplin said Friday he is appealing a demotion in rank for two reasons: he doesn't agree with it and he wants clarification of reasons' for the demotion. Esplin and fellow Capt. Glenn Bowman, each with more than 30 years service in the department, have been demoted in rank, effective July 1. Two days after the June 28 demotion recommendation by Chief Ben Meyers, Esplin filed his appeal with the city personnel office.

Bowman has not filed an appeal. Meyers is out of the city on vacation. Major Everett Pity, Not Scorn, Due Mitchells two years ago he was assigned as an assistant force commander working under a lieutenant, said Esplin. Bowman was ill and away from work about three months during 1968, said Van Osdol, and when he returned to work it was as an administrative assistant to the chief. Both Bowman and Esplin are now paid $1,118 a month, or $13,416 a year, says Larry Wacker, city personnel officer.

As a lieutenant, however, Esplin will actually receive a raise in pay because he would be at the top range in the job, Wacker adds. As a lieutenant he would be paid $1,138 a month or $14,656 a year. Wacker said Bowman's pay would "be frozen" at the present $1,118 a month level, because the pay for an administrative assistant II is from $757 to $963 a month. No date for a hearing has been set. Saville (Si) Ford's term on the three-member Civil Service Board has expired.

But City Manager Robert S. Moore said Ford could continue to serve "until a replacement is found." The other members are attorney Tom Churchill and Boise Cascade personnel director Wes Ringstad.

The findings of the study, said Van Osdol, were that the positions in the department filled by the two captains did not require captain's rank. Both officers joined the force in 1941.

Another system I don't understand: a candidate wins one primary after another. He comes within reach of the Democratic presidential nomination. Then the losers try to take it away from him. This is democracy? About poor sportsmanship: Bobby Fischer may be the world's best chess player, but he can't prove it until he sits down and plays the world champion, Boris Spassky of the Soviet Union. Meanwhile, he's embarrassing his fellow-countrymen by greedy, petulant behavior and bad manners.

While I'm on the subject of international relations Soviet-American chess relations another thing that made me sit up on. the beach and take notice was the agreement between North and South Korea on principles of reunification. It was one of those rare pleasant surprises in the news. And it makes you wonder why they couldn't have agreed on those principles before the Korean War, instead of two decades later. Finally, what has the Newport Jazz Festival been doing for 18 years in a Rhode Island cow pasture? Here, the crowds and the money are rolling in.

And the town is so big that it just absorbs all those kids when the music stops. We haven't had a riot all week. The Jazz Festival should have been in New York all along. This is the place. (C) ditto Danwl BY L1CHTY year old and already he's NEW YORK May I be allowed, please, a few quick comments on the news that was happening while I was lolling on the beach over the Fourth of July weekend? I quit and sat bolt upright when a newspaper arrived with this By CLIFTON DANIEL headline: "Martha Wins! Mitchell Quits Nixon Campaign." Herewith my comments: Martha Mitchell is more to be pitied than scorned.

And that goes double for John Mitchell. I thought the-newspapers the ones I read showed a commendable reticence in dealing with their private troubles. They only printed what the Mitchells told them. And speaking of privacy, I'm glad Jacqueline Onassis won her suit to make Ronald Galella, the American Paparazzo, keep his distance from her and her children. I believe the press should be free and people who seek publicity deserve what they get, but freedom of the press is not a license to harass a private citizen pursuing a private life.
