AiDING CONSERVATION
By CHARLES
tiati Hill, fnember of the,
speaking- at the annual banquet of the Reedsp'Ort Chamber
of Commerce Friday night; reported that attempts will be
made at the next sessiorf of
authority for regulation of
commission.
P6Wer over seasons and bag limits has been- given the
Game Commission, but has been denied" the Fish Com
mission.
One reason for the apparent; .discrimination lies in dis
trust by conservationists of
F6r a good many years the Fish Commission was largely
a legislative agency for the fish packing industry, rather
than a body interested in protecting public rights io the
state's fisheries resource. Fish Commissions' of tho past
have tak6h' an active politicaf part, side-by-side with packers,
in permitting ruthless destructiori of fish life.
Until' iohtpa'ra'fively few
on th'e part of Fish Commissions to' become interested in
conservation. Practically 6very conservation measure so far
placed upon Oregon statute' fiooks SkAk 6'rig'inated by sports
mcri's" gro'tfpW and each, with'6ut exception1, was vigorously
fought by commercial interests', fretruehtly with apparent
sympathy; if not active participation', of Commissions.
Senator jierle Chessmafi,. vhile a' member of the Fish
Commission1; insofar as our personal knowledge is concerned,
vas one of the first td demand a protective attitude by the
commission. Ho was the sponsor of bills' introduced at the
last session of the legislature to grant the commission larger
powers of control.
But; because of prolonged suspicion of the Fish Commis
sion, by conservationists, and because there was a definite
trend aVay front delegation of legislative authority to ex
ecutive agencies"; due to exaifiples of abuses' in federal cori
trofe, the measures failed of passage.
The last legislature; informed that the fisheries' resource
rib longer could support the hatchery; research, enforcement
ririd administrative program's of the contfrnission f rorfi pound
age fees, due to the rapid decline in commercial take, gave
4 .grarit of pitblic funds "Iend-le'a'se" it was termed by
Commissioner Hill. But at the same time the legislature
issued d virtual mandate that tho Commission miist do some
thing about conservation, "or else ."
' Thisf has1 resulted in d very, vigor-frits shakcup' of depart
rf.ent personnel. The commission has employed one of the
best; known scientists fit the person of Arne J. Suomela to
serve as' master fish warden; The Carrie and Fish commis
sions are cooperating in a joint survey of coastal fisheries.
; It appears' that' control of the Fish Commission no longer
is in the hands of the comriioi'cial packers. Today's Fish.
Commission is working in' close cooperation with' the com-'1
mercial" fishermen rather than the packers. The' men Who
make their living by fishing are; for the most part; otii
strongest conservationists. Sportsmen, who consider them
selves rrio'ro or less alone iri this" field, would be astoriisned
by the vast range of knowledge, the enthusiasrn, and deter
mination of Bill Puustirien; secretary of the Columbia Rivet
Fishermen's Protective Association, and of Charles" Henne,
national representative for the International Fishermen &
Allied Workers of America (CIO), These men, representing
the Organized fishermen, are strict conservationists and are
doing a most constructive and valuable job. They apparently
have the complete confidence and cooperation of the Fish
Commission. . .
If the commission has dorio a complete about face ori
policy, as its present personnel and actions Would indicate,
arid la prepat-od to conserve rather than exploit our fishories
resource, then greater authority ovor seasons arid take could
be an important factor iri a more' efficient conservation
program.

The cooperative's system, the

It will be late summer or early

by the fact that long list of

Rank, File Must
Rule, Young; GOP
Of Oregon Told
, PORTLAND, April 29(P)
The rank and file of the Repub
lican party and not the national
committee should determine
party policies, Senator Morse (R,
Ore.) declared here in. a speech
Saturday at the meellrtg of the
Young- Republican Federation of
Oregon.
Morse Was joined fn the speak
ing program by former Senator
Henry Cabot uodco of Massa
chusetts, who said that an "am
bitious vested interest" must not
control the party.
"If the Republican party is
made a party of the few, we can
nominate, but cannot elect," the
Massachusetts Republican leader
declared.
The Oregon senator said his
views have .been under attack
by what he called "ultra-conservatives"
who he said abuse
the word "unity" by trying to
leave the Impression any Repub
licans. who disagree with them
should not be members of the
party.
Voters of both parlies wani
much the same form ot govern
ment, Morse said, b(it differ in
whys of achieving the objectives.
Both Morse and IrfMlge said the
administration . failed, to achieve
goals most Americans want in
the post-war era. Ixidge declared
the IVmocrats were split with
out hope of unity by dilterenees
between the southern Democrats
and northern political leaders
"who will try anythixg once,"

Household Help in America
Being Drained Info Beffer
Paying Manufacturing Jobb
. WASrIINGTON The household help In this country is passing
out of the picture. According to the Women's Bureau of the Depart
ment! of Labor, more than 400,000 of the approximately two million
pre-War household-workers went info war work. More than' 90 per
cent of these former domestic employes intend to keep oh worfting,
but close td 80 per cent say they .never will go back to the kitchen.
"Undoubtedly," says the Worn
en's1 Bureau, "the high, earnings
offered by the manufacturing
plants are a deciding factor in the
desire of womqu. to follow that
type of work in peacetime.
During the war, averace wcofc-
ly take-home earnings for former
domestic employes working as op
eratives" In manufacturing wCrc
$36; in laundries, $23, and in ho
tels, $19. - '
"Before- the war domestic em
ployes were the lowest paid of all
women worKors, in me . unuca
States. The median year s wages
in 1939 for more than a 'million
domestic workers who were. em
ployed a full 12 months was'
$31G."
Long Ho'ura' Cited ;
The Census Bureau reports' that
a third of. these women earned
less than $200 a year, two thirds
less than $400. Sinco the war, ac
cording to the U. E. Employment
Service records, wage rates for
domestic help average $1,040 to
$1,300 a year. .
"There Is no factual data," says
the Labor Dcpaifment, "to prove
that hours of household employes
have boen shortened since 1939.

There has, however, been some
improvement in this situation, but
for the most part the work-week
of the full-time domestic employe
still exceeds the wartime factory
week of 48 hours. Since the end
of the war, most factory workers
do a 40 to 44-hour weekly stint."
Only Rich Can Afford Them
"Minimum wage laws ln eight
states (California, Colorado, Kan
sas; ..Oklahoma, Oregon, Utah,
Washington and Wisconsin) do
not . exclude domestio workers
from poverago, but Wiacqpsin Js
the only one which has a mini
mum wage rate for domestic em
ployes," reports the Department
of Labor. The rate there, set in
1932, is $6 with meals, $4.50 a
vveek With meals and room, on a
basis of 50 hours a' week. But try
to get a maid or cook at that pay.
There still are close to a million
arid a half domestic workers, but
that's a small number compared
to the 20 million or so housewives
who are doing their own work.
, With domestic help wages now
practically pegged at $25 a week,
only the very rich will be able to
afford them from here on.

German Emigrants
To United States
By HAL BOYLE ,
BERLIN, ADril 30. OP) The
first German emigrant to Ameri
ca since the end of the war is
Mrs. Emma Biiechner Stelnber
ger, who is arivthine but dis
mayed at starting new life at-
lour score years or age.
Vivacious at 80, this' white
haired widow and great grand
mother is looking eagerly for
ward to her first air trip, and is
worried about only one thing.
"1 would hate to be airsick,"
she said. .
One of her companions on the
flight across the Atlantic Will be
three-and-a-half year old Bella
Raphael, Jewish orphan adopted
by Serpeant. Bert Simons, Brook
lyn, N. Y., in fulfilment, of a bat
tlefield pledge he made during
the dark hours of the "Battle of
the Bulge."
. Daughter of a school superin
tendent who participated in the
German revolution ot 1848, Mrs.
Stelnberger is the mother-ln lav
of Louis Lochner, for 14 years
chief bf the Berlin bureau of the
Associated Press before the war.
Mrs. Stelnberger feels her life
was fortunate "because I never
had to worry about findlnp a hus
band." "I Was engaged at 14 and mar
ried at 24. Yes, of course, It was
the same man. We lived together
56 years."
Even bombs never broke her
spirit. She and her husband, who
died last month; often refused to
go to air raid shelters. ,
. Mrs. Steinberger 'thinks the
best joke on herself is the cau
tious appraisal of her character
given by the Berlin police on the
certificate of identity she is tak
ing to America.
Evidence here available," the
certificate said, "indicates ' she
was not in conflict with the' po
lice." , - ',
Mrs. Stelnberger will make her
home with her daughter, Mrs.
Louis Lorhrier, Hollywood, Calif.
Mrs. Lochner became an Ameri
can citizen in, 1922.
