Eire Loses In Effort To
Get Action On Partition
By JOSEPH E. DYNAN '
STRASBOURG, France, Aug.
13 UP) By an overwhelming
show of hands, the Council ol
Europe's Assembly today rejected
Ireland's attempt to call up the
Irish partition problem for de
bate. - Ireland had sought to have the
newly-created assembly take a
hand in its long-standing demands
for union of northern Ireland
with the 26-county republic to
the south.
Strong opposition to the con
traversal proposal came from
most British delegates to the 101
member assembly. Since 1921 the
six counties of northern Ireland
have been part of the United
Kingdom, along with England,
Scotland and Wales.

ROSEBURG,
BEST HUSBANDS FAT
Teachers Best
Wives, College
Speaker Asserts
BUFFALO, N. Y.. Aug. 13. UP)
Fat men make the best husbands,
and school teachers the best
wives.
That' the word from the di
rector of the National Institute
for Human Relations.
Dr. James F. Bender of New
York City declared at the ses
sion convocation of Buffalo State
Teachers college yesterday:
"The fat man is the least likely
to want a divorce. He is a tendeV
and faithful lover and he is more
easily pursuaded to wash the
dishes and get up at night to look
at the baby."
Bender, who thinks he's the
"roly-poly type" himself, had this
to say to maritally inclined gen
tlemen: "School teachers love children
and they make good mothers. . .
Teachers are well adjusted per
sonalities as a rule and are less
Inclined to be neurotic than the
average American woman."
Furthermore, he said when a
woman has been giving class
room lectures all day long, she
returns home at night too tired
to talk. This is "sheer heaven"
to most married males.
Portland Park's
Condition Topic
Of Warm Dispute
PORTLAND, Aug. 13 UP)
Park and sanitation officials ar
gued hotly today over the condi
tion of Laurelhurst Park.
They agreed on only one thing:
it's the rats.
That is, the rats thrive on what
ever condition Laurelhurst park
is in.
Frank D. Cramphin, Inspector
of the division of food and sani
tation, said the park "is a cess
pool with, a decorative lighting
system.
The lake there, he added, "!s
one of the consistency of sew
age." This drew outraged criea from
the park officials, who insisted
the lake was fed by fresh water,
had an adequate drainage outlet
and was cleaned regularly. They
insisted there was no chance for
sewage to get into the water,
Cramphin recommended, nev
ertheless, that the lake be con
demned and drained. Only in this
way could the number of rats
there be controlled, he said.
Park officials admitted there
were plenty of rats. They added
that there also were too many
at the city zoo. Both places have
the problem of rats thriving on
the food visitors throw away,
they said.
Margaret Mitchell Shows
Signs Of Recovering
ATLANTA, Aug. 13. UP) A

During the night, the hospital
reported. Miss Mitchell aroused
momentarily from the semi-coma
into which she lapsed after be
ing struck by a speeding car
Thursday night.
She was able to ask for and
drink a glass of water and ob
serve that she "hurt all over,"
before relapsing into unconscious
ness. Meanwhile, a nation heartened
by her tale of great courage was
sending along its wishes for a
speedy recovery. Like hundreds
of others who found the iron gal
lantry of that civil war romance
to their liking, President Tru
man wired, "hope you are bet

said he had received a copy of
the letter which may be read at
Monday's city council meeting, .
from Eldon T. Ogle, secretary of

"We take this action," Ogle's
letter says, "on being Informed
that there Is no expense to the

houses constructed, and the hous

will contract to your body to pay
10 per cent of their base rentals
In lieu of taxes."
Need Pointed Out
Scofield said there if still a
need here for decent, acceptable
low-rental housing. Forty-one
trailer units operated by the
housing authority at Roseburg
have been ordered closed, but this
is because the statute of limita

Although there were four trail
