Horan (R.-Wash.) said to day lumping of all government spending into one appropriation bill "would lead to fiscal an archy." Horan said the "cry for one ap propriation bill" is being made on the theory that Congress thus could get a better view of the en tire cost of federal activities. "It is hard enoueh for the an- proprlatlons committee members to grasp reasonably the Justifica tions for the billions of dollars provided in any one of the ten major spending bills under the present setup,'rhe continued. "But It would be virtually Im possible to clear an omnibus ap propriation bill, including funds for 1,800 different agencies and totaling upwards of $35,000,000, 000, through any sensible kind of consideration on the House or Senate lloor, subject to hundreds of amendments, additions and de letions. Indeed the possibilities of slipping In lll-advlsed Items with out knowledge of the majority would lead to fiscal anarchy." Horan said that ultimately "whether in one bill or a hundred Ihere is only one way to reduce the cost of government curtail tome functions and fire some em ployees." "We can't save money," he said, "by cutting present appro priations five per cent and then legislating new multl-bllllon dol lar programs for next year," CIO Doubles Reward For Assilants Of Reuthers DETROIT, June 7. (.T) A $200,000 reward was offered by the CIO United Auto Workers today in the search for the as sailants of Walter and Victor Reuther. The union thus doubled Its pre vious $100,000 reward offer In last spring's shooting of Walter Reuther adding another hike sum in the attack last May 24 on Victor. This brought the total rewards in both attacks to $218,800, In cluding offers from the Detroit city council and other groups. I i I . u ... 100,000 regonians , can'tt 'tC2r.' ' '35 1 .. -SSSKsSS--. Block 47 Will Get Business Zone Status (Continued From Page One) acres, respectively, tor future air port development. A motion was approved to contact the owners to obtain prices on the property. Councilman George West, air port committee chairman, re ported that it appeared impera tive that the property be ac quired as soon as possible, or the city would face the problem of having to pay a much greater price later if it were subdivided, or find a new airport site. He said the Committee felt at first it would not be necessary to ac quire this property, but further study revealed the advisability. The hill to the south makes land ing conditions hazardous, and fu ture plans may require its re moval, he indicated. Annexation Sought Petitions asking elections tor annexation oi Miners Addition and Sleepy Hollow, containing 92 names out of an approximate 200 residents, and a consent petition to annex Block 3, Beulah s Addi tion were tabled, along with con sent petitions for Westmoreland and two lots in block 1, Beulah's Addition, until the second meet ing In July. This action was taken at the suggestion of City Attorney Paul Geddes, who stated that a new law would go into effect July 15 whereby areas petitioning for an nexation could hold an election first, with the city election to fol low, only if the vote carries in' the area to be annexed, t The city has held other peti tions In abeyance to eliminate the cost of several elections, where a single election would take care of several area: wish ing to Join the city, Mayor Albert G. Flegel pointed out that each election costs the city about $600, and while the City Council is eager to annex any area so desir ing, tne cost or such elections must be considered. Terrace Avenue Problem What to do about Terrace Ave nue has posed considerable of a problem. Surveys of the street and abutting property differ, and the street width varies from 28 to as much as 60 feet. The proper ty owners - have petitioned for street improvements, curbs and gutters, but the Council has been unable to act until some definite survey could be obtained and suf ficient property acquired tor a desired street width. The Council decided the best solution was to vacate the street entirely, then to run a center line from established markers, and obtain new deeds to the property needed from the owners. This will involve considerable legal work, but so far presents the only solution, tne council decided. Liquor Licenses The Moose Lodge was granted a club license for liquor. Trans fer of a Class B license for Dus ty's Tavern, formerly owned by W. C. De Priest, to Pit's Tavern, now owned by Charles A., and Golda Patchett was approved. Also given approval were appli cations by the Grand Hotel for a Class C license, and Leonard Steve Zachcr, Class B license at a proposed new location at 535 So. Stephens Street. An ordinance was passed In structing the city recorder to ad vertise for sealed bids for a new corporation garage, to cost an estimated $10,000. Slearns Flynn was again employed to audit the city books. The city manager was Instructed 1o Investigate whether the garbage service could set a later hour for picking up store boxes and refuse as an aid to the merchants. The Department of Commerce Civil Aeronautics Authority was granted an exten sion of a year's lease for use of the city airport. Job Estimate Given The Council deferred until the next meeting a decision on the request by residents of Somh Hamilton Street, from Rice to Mnln, for Installation of curbs and gutters. City Manager Malt Slankard submitted an estimate of $8530.13 for the entire Job of Installing the curbs, gutters, three necessary catch basins tor storm water and piping of a spring on the east side of Hamilton. The average cost for the 1731 lineal feet would be about $4.85. per foot. While no special surfacing was requested by the petitioners, the Council considered It advisable to obtain an estimate on the cost of either oiling or hlacktopplng the street, which could be done more cheaply under the one operation than at a future dale, and would greatly reduce maintenance costs. ' esc imATUM If'" ..-I o"4 Swim Pool's First Revenue Is Reported A total of 4,199 persons had used the Roseburg Municipal Swimming pool and had paid $842 during the first week of use to and including Sunday, official figures announced today reveal. Cost of operation is roughly $45 daily. A breakdown showed that 2,085 were children and 2,114 were adults. An hourly average tor tne time the pool was open showed 80.77 persons In the pool. Some of the total is a duplication of persons who have entered the pool on more than one occasion. City Manager M. W. Slankard reported the clorination system is working excellently and com pletely purifies the water every 12 hours. Testing at the pool is made twice dally and the purity test has continued to be negative. A special under-water vacuum cleaner is used to remove any dirt particles from the pool. Slankard called attention - to the state law requiring that all women wear bathing caps in the water. He also reported barbed wire has been strung around the top of the fence to prevent people from climbing over alter hours. He explained this has been neces sary to prevent persons from swimming when there are no life guards and while the Hants are out at night. State law prohibits the use of the pool unless life saving precautions are taken. The Red Cross swimming class opened this morning. Rosary Recitation Set For Mrs. Wm. M.

Tift Plan Faces Revolt While the Inter-unlon row went on, a small but potentially trou blesome revolt against the plans of Senator Taft (R.-Ohlo) to re tain most of Taft-Hartley brewed in Republican ranks. So far the rift hasn't given Taft any real concern. But it ap peared certain to be a major issue for a party policy conference of all the GOP senators on labor legislation. The Republicans arranged their pow-wow while senate debate on the administration's labor bill and counter measures halted tempo rarily. Senator Elbert B. Thomas (D. Utah), sponsor of the Truman bill to repeal the Taft-Hartley law, fired the opening gun In the de bate yesterday. He spoke for four hours, and then the Senate set the bill aside and agreed to take up an appropriation measure. Following action on mat dim, the labor debate was to be re sumed, possibly late today. Senators In 3-way split The administration bill would lunk the T-H law as union lead ers have demanded and re-enact a slightly revised version of the old Wagner Act. . Taft ana two or nis uur cot- leasees. Senators Donnell (Mo.) and Smith (N. J.), are sponsoring a substitute which would make 28 changes in the present law but retain its basic provisions. That substitute has the backing of a big bloc of Republicans and apparently aDouc a dozen south ern Democrats. Tacitly acknowledging, the strength or that group, the ben. ate's Democratic leadership is sup porting live amendments which would write some Taft-Hartley provisions into the administration bill. The compromise Is designed to woo votes away from the Taft substitute. Morse For Compromise The five amendments are spon sored by a group which Senator Douglas (D.-IU.) says is made up of "bi-partisan progressives" tour Democrats anq rour Repub licans. One of the amendments has five Republican co-sponsors. it is that uuf group and the possibility of other Republicans joining it that may cause Taft trouble. GOP Senators Morse (Ore.) Aiken (Vt). Tobey (N. H.) and Margaret Chase Smith (Me.) al ready have put their names on all five of the compromise amend ments. Another Republican, Sena tor Langer (N. D.), is backing one of them and might go along on some of the others. The compromise amendments to the administration bill provide ior: (1) Presidential seizure of struck plants or industries in na tional emergency labor dlsDutes: (2)a guarantee of -free speech lo both employers and workers; (3) requiring both unions and em. pioyers" to bargain collectively in good faith; (4) affidavits by both union oiiicers ana employers that they, are not Communists or Fas cists; and (5) union financial statements. Conciliation Service Aid In Strike Sought , (Continued From Page One) from $70 to $72.50 tor a 48-hour week. Ogle, In his statement, said he also understood "nearly half the markets have signed up already" and that there are plenty of meat and groceries for all Der- sons" without their having to go tu ine strucK operators. There was disagreement be tween union and employer repre sentatives as to the number of markets affected by the strike. H. E. Carlson, Portland, em ployer representative, said there were 12 members of the Rose burg Independent Meat Dealers Association, with eight markets operated In connection with gro cery stores. Barker said there are only seven struck establish ments teight, counting two stores under one ownership). Barker said five meat markets had signed union contracts. Carl son last week said these are one- man markets employing no help." Barker said at least two of the markets do employ journeyman butchers. Carlson said, however, markets affected by the strike represent bo per cent or the food business In Roseburg."

Plane Crash In Atlantic Takes Lives Of 47 (Continued From Page One) and five crewmen went down with it. Capt. D. H. Dexter, in charge of the Coast Guard base here, said he did not believe more than the 28 known survivors would be found alive. Search by air and sea craft was pressed. Twenty-six of the survivors swam to small islands and reefs, and crews of rescue craft braved death in the churning and treach erous seas to pick them off 'and carry them to the mainland.
