Transit Strike
Hits N. Y. City
NEW YORK, July 15. (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.

The answer to everyday
Insurance problems ir
By KEN BAILEY
Believing wholeheartedly in the
philosophy that you have to
give" before you can "get" and
believing also that in these days
of complexities most people will
be really interested in reading the
solutions to their own and their
neighbors' everyday insurance
problems, we decided to try some
thing a little different, -ft h 1
Beginning next week this adver
tising space will be devoted each
week to a. column of questions and
answers on insurance problems
which are common in the lives of
all of us.
Frankly, this column will be in it
self a form of advertising but the
offer to answer your insurance
questions without charge or obli
gation is genuine and has no
strings attached. We'll really ap
preciate an opportunity to be of
service to you.
It M you'll eddresf your own Insurance
questions to this office, we'll try to
give you the correct answers and there
will b n. charge or obligation ef any
kind.

day accused Secretary of Agricul

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

economic and farm officials had
said In support of the flexible-

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

administration men said private

Oregon Traffic
Accidents Show
Downward Trend
At the mid-year point, 68 fewer
lives had been lost in Oregon
traffic accidents than during the
same period a year ago, Secre
tary of Stale Newbry reports.
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.

Oregon Veterans Not Entitled To
Funds For Education Outside State
Oregon veterans of World War
II requesting state educational
benefits for studies outside the
state henceforth must be able to
show that the training they re
quire is not available In Oregon,
The Department of Veterans' Af
fairs reported this week.
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.
