(PI CIO transit workers struck sud denly Thursday against all 21 lines of the New York City Omni bus Corporation. The lines carry an (estimated 925,000 passengers daily. The walkout was called by the CIO Transport Workers Union, eight hours after 350 maintenance workers quit work at one of the company garages in protest against the dismissal of four em ployes. The company termed the initial walkout unauthorized but the big union quickly announced that it would support the strike. At the same time, Michael J. Quill, president of TWU, said that the stoppage would be ex tended to the Fifth Avenue Coach Corporation at midnight tonight if the dispute with the Omnibus Corporation is not settled by then. The two companies have joint ownerships. The Fifth avenue line hauls some 200,000 daily riders. Edmund C. Collins, vice presi dent of the company, said that the four dismissed employes "were not discharged but were laid off because of economic con ditions." They were laid off, he said, with the understanding .that should the company need addi tional mechanics they would be given preference In the order of their seniority.

KEN BAILEY INSURANCE AGENCY 315 Pacific Bldg. Phone 398 day accused Secretary of Agricul ture Brannan of "tnrowing tne farm problem Into the partisan political arena. Allan B. Kline, head of the American Farm Bureau Federa tion, called the Brannan proposal to let prices drop for the benefit of consumers, with the govern ment subsidizing farmers, "a new and untried concept. Kline testified before a Senate agriculture subcommittee which is holding hearings on the Bran nan farm plan. The cost of this program would be staggering," Kline said, adding: "Here is the basis for real regi mentation. Furthermore, there is no good reason why the govern ment should pay1 part of the gro cery bill of every citizen." Kline made a point of reading what Anderson, President Tru man and other top governmental economic and farm officials had said In support of the flexible- Beautify Your Grounds The beauty of your grounds en hances the beauty of your home.

Most of Kline's testimony was devoted to a general discussion of postwar farm problems and an explanation of how the Farm Bu reau, with Its membership of 1, 325,000 farm families, reached its recommendations for the Con gress. More than a score of national directors and state farm bureau presidents were present to hear Kline testify. Presiding at the Senate hear ing was Senator Anderson (D NM), who preceded Brannan as Secretary of Agriculture. On the House side of the Cap itol, a Democratic Republican coalition claimed enough votes to junk the administration plans to set up a trial run for the Brannan program. The coalition would continue the present price farm price pro gram as it stands, and some high administration men said private ly the trial run idea is in trouble.

The six-month toll stands at 124 killed, a drop of 35 percent from the 192 fatalities recorded at the same time In 1948. June deaths totaled 24 as against 43 in June a year ago for a 44 per cent reduction. The -half-year death record Is the lowest since the war-time travel restrictions of 1944. Bad weather In the early months of this year kept many cars off the road and helped hold fatal accidents to a minimum, Newbrv pointed out, but deaths in both May and June were well below those in the same months last year. "A great deal of credit should r i to Portland, whose string of 98 doath-free days helped so ma terially to improve the state-wide traffic record," Newbry said. ,He added that most of the June fatal accidents took place on Inter city, highways and involved ex cessive speed.

A 1949 amendment to the state veterans' educational aid act of 1945 says the director of vet erans' affairs cannot permit a beneficiary to draw benefits while attending school or college out side of Oregon without a "satis factory showing that the train ing required is not available in an accredited Institution within the state of Oregon." The amend ment goes into effect July 16. Until now a veteran could draw state benefits if It was de termined to be "In the best in terest of the beneficiary from an educational standpoint" to bo to school elsewhere. Edward T. Taggart, educational officer for the state veterans' department, said the new restric tion probably will result In elim inating most of the applications for studies outside Oregon under state aid. About 45 veterans have drawn Oregon benefits while studying In other stales and two have been approved for study In foreign countries since 1945. When the legislature amended the. educational aid program it also added $15 to the amount of monthly benefits available to vet erans studying full time in under graduate college courses. The in crease, which becomes effective Sept.l, raises to $50 the amount such students may receive under the program. All other veterans, such as those in graduate work, vocational and technical school subjects, and part time studies, will continue to draw benefits on the basis of $35 for a minimum of 40 classroom hours per month. World War II veterans who were Oregon' residents for one year immediately prior to active service are eligible. Registered Willamette Val ley Lred Romneys from lm. ported rams.
