Typical of the kind of stories he will tell on "Passing Parade" this week Is the one he has set for this afternoon at 4:30. It deals with an RAF flier who never returned from a mission. Yet a friend swore he did return that he actually had tea with him. The records, however, disclose the flier crashed and died in combat. Tomorrow, he'll tell the un usual yet true story of the man in the dead of night by a drunk on the telephone. Yet the call saved his life. The man awoke with a splitting headache and when he went upstairs in his home r: found his entire family gassed. (And we don't mean inebriated.) It's been a real pleasure for w at the radia station to welcome back to Roseburg former manager of KRNR, Marshall Pengra on his return her for a 10-day stay.

The committee of 1.000, a civic better ment group, had this ammunition today In its campaign to elimin ate slot machines from private clubs: Prosecutor Leslie Carroll Is ready to go Into the courts to "wipe out slot machines" If Spo kane police stage a raid and bring one of the gambling devices In as evidence. Commissioner of Public Safety Carl D. Canwell Is willing to fur nish the prosecutor with enough men for a raid, "or he can get them from the sheriffs office." Carroll made his statement of readiness lor action before the committee yesterday, but said he was unsure whether the state su preme court would uphold a raid on the slots. The high court ha not decided whether the machines are legal.

"My feelings art a little hurt." It was In 1946 that Wooton, a Stockton, Calif., resident, claimed the "world cherry-picking rec ord" by harvesting 2,168 pounds of cherries In a one-day contest at Hood River.

Unemployment In July Reaches New Summer High Payments to Oregon's unem ployed In July climbed to $1,201, 435, an Increase of $87,597 from June and the highest mid-summer month on record with the ex ception of 1946 when thousands of war workers and returning veter ana were looking for Jobs, the State Unemployment Compensa tion commission reported today. Veterans allowances dropped slightly from the previous month to $392,422 but were nearly dou ble the $207,876 paid out in July, 1948. Workera covered by the atate low drew $809,013, an in creases of 17 per cent from June and more than double the $370, 495 of a year ago. With more than 28,500 claims on file for the new benefit year (starting July 1, 1949), the num ber of stale checks Issued during the last week or July rose to 14, 235, highest for nearly three months and exceeded by only a few mid-winter weeks during 1948. New claimants Increased 78 per cent over a year ago. An Influx of new state claims Is expected early in August from the four to six thousand veterans who have been drawing readjust ment allowances under the GI bill of rights, which expire for about 94 per cent of former ser vice men with the end of July. Nearly 60 per cent of these veter an have sufficient wage credits ($400 or more) in 1948 to qualify for atate benefits. Of 95,000 Ore gon veterans who applied for help from federal funds, about 6, 800 exhausted their rights and about 5.800 will have additional time In which to draw allowances. Nearly 30 per cent of the new claimants are from the lumber and logging group, 10 per cent from construction, and 14 per cent from the food processing In dustry. Average weekly check un der the new legislative amend ments dropped below $20 late in the month because of many com Densable claims from cannery workers In Astoria, Salem and Eugene with low earninga during 1948. Earlier averages were over $21 a compared with $17.31 dur ing the last montn under tne for mer benefit schedule. Progressiva Candidate Will Become Democrat WASHINGTON, Aug. 1.-UT) Sen. Glen Taylor (D.-ldaho), who ran lor vice president last .'No vember on the Progressive ticket, said last night he would run again for senator, as a Democrat.

"I'm pretty thoroughly con vinced," Henry A. Wallace's run ning mate added, "that our po litical destiny rests with the two major political parties, that the American people do not want any splinter parties."

They climbed over a prison wall Memorial day w hlle a guard pumped bullets at Ihem. So far as can be learned, no one haa seen them since. Scores thought they did at first Classed as dangerous, the con victs were reported In a dozen places, and the search was ener getic. None of the reports was autnenticatea, nowever, and grad ually the active search was aban doned. The watch goes on, though. The private opinion of some offi cials is that the two headed at once for a hide-out in some se cluded place, and have not yet emerged. Police throughout the stte are waiting for the break that may renew the search. Pinson, a lifer convicted of kill ing a state policeman In the mid Columbia river area. Is regarded The answer to everyday nsuranre problm By KEN BAILEY QUESTION: I am a very care ful person and It seems to me that If I am watchful of the upkeep and repair of my prop erty. It Is very unlikely that an accident could occur which could be charged to my negli gence. Why should I take on the needless expense of carry ing a "Home Owner' Liabil ity" Insurance policy? ANSWER: Certainly a person who Is careful about the up keep and repair of his property Is much less likely to become liable for damages from an ac cident on that property. How ever, all your care may not keep someone from suing you for damages and even though you won the rase, you might be forced to very great ex pense in Just defending the suit. The proper Insurance will not only handle your loss if the case goes against you but the insurance company will defend you In the suit Itself. -ir youll (TrtrvM your own Insur ance queitloni to thti orftco. wo'll try to givo you lha eorrort answer and thera will ba n charge ar abll Ilea el ear hint- KEN BAILEY INSURANCE AGENCY 31 S Pacific Bldg.
