Single
le Bill For
Appropriations
Rapped By Solon
WASHINGTON, June 7,-fP)
Rep. 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

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

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.

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.

Fires Back At Lewis
(Continued From Page One) '
sponslblllty which in the recent
past has so frequently character
ized Lewis' actions and utter
ances." 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 ,

from $70 to $72.50 tor a 48-hour

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."
