each authorized the Douglas
County Housing authority re
cently, to apply to the U. o.

for 100 rental units to be con
structed here.
He said the applications had

chosen to represent their houses.
The number was then reduced
through a series of dates until
only five remained as the court.
The "Sweetheart" was then chos
en from the five, wllh the others
being members of tne court.
The Sweetheart was crowned
at a dance at the Sigma Chi

Machines Hit By Court

as to whether the court might
not also have ruled out slot ma
chines "by indirection."
Such devices, like pinball ma
chines, have never been legalized
by the state but both are taxed.
Pinballs pay a 20 percent tax on
gross revenues and slot machines,
permitted in private clubs, are
assessed 40 percent of tneir re
turn. ,

$6 million a year 1 the official com
mented. "And u that money isn l
going Into state coffers it makes
a special session oi tne legis

Various city governments also
would be affected by a ban on
the pinball machines. Seattle, for
example, now collects an average
of &B.50 a year from each ma
chine within the city limits. Pin
ball wholesalers are taxed $250
each a year.

Disabled Yets
Advised On Pay
For Dependents
Veterans with service connected
disabilities of 50 percent should
s'irt immediately to gather vital
records in order to establish
eligibility for dependency allow
ance benefits authorized by re
cent congressional action, the
Oregon Department of Veterans'
Affairs advises.
Public Law 339 of the 81st Con
gress gives added payments to
such veterans if they have wives,
children or dependent parents.
The new benefit, which starts
Dec. 1, was previously limited to
those 60 percent or more disabled
as a result of military service.
The state veterans' department
advised the new beneficiaries to
contact authorized veterans' repre
sentatives for assistance in ob
taining records of marriage,
births, and of divorces and deaths
involving previous marriages.
Such records must be In the Vet
erans administration files- before
the new payments can start.
The state board of health will
furnish such records to the VA
or the state veterans' department
without cost if they are to be used
in connection with benefits paid
by the VA. While the veteran may
apply direct to the health board,
he is advised to consult an agen
cy or organization which offers
veterans' services for more ex
peditious handling of the applica
tion. - These organizations include
county service officers, the
American Legion, Veterans of
Foreign Wars, the Disabled
American Veterans, the Red
Cross, the Portland VA regional
office, and the state veterans' de
partment, with offices in the
State Library building, Salem, and

Audit Of Miners'
Fund Demanded
By Sen. Bridges
WASHINGTON, Nov. 10 UP) -Senator
Bridges (R-NH) asked
today for a court audit of opera
tions of the coal miners' welfare
fund since he has been one of its
trustees.
When that has been done- and
his own actions as a trustee have
been reviewed, he asked the U.S.
district court here to. let him get
off the board.
Bridges' petition to the court
was in some degree his response
to a plea by Ezra Van Horn,
former coal operator member of
the board, to be absolved of any
responsibility for the way the
multi-million dollar welfare fund
has been administered:
Van Horn, separately answer
ing a mine pensioner's suit for an
accounting of the fund, accused
Bridges and the third trustee,
John L. Lewis, of "dissipating"
the money. Van Horn told the
court Bridges and Lewis had in
effect frozen him out In the mak
ing of decisions and contended
he had even been denied infor
mation about what had been done
with money from the fund.
The fund is financed by a 20
cents per ton royalty on aoft coal,
paid by the operators. Lewis rep
resents the United Mine Work
ers on the board.
Van Horn, until he resigned
and was replaced by Charles I.
Dawson, Louisville, Ky., lawyer,
spoke for the operators. Bridges j
was the "neutral" trustee.

Lewis Snubs Federal Bid
To Coal Peace Huddle
(Continued From Page One)
attitude toward the Invitation to
peace talks this morning.
Ching, Operators Furious
It amounted to a sharp slap in
the face to Cyrus Ching, federal
mediation "chief, It left him, too,
pretty much in the position of the
parson when the bride-to-be
doesn't show up for the wedding.
Ching was there, fuming. The
soft coal operators were there,
fuming. But no Lewis.
In fact, it was something of a
mystery where Lewis was. Aides
of the union leader said they did
not itnow.
Ching was plainly burned up.
First, he fired a telegram to
United Mine Workers headquar
ters asking Lewis for "clarifica
tion." But he didn't even know
whether Lewis would see it.
Then Ching delivered a report
to the White House that Lewis
had coolly turned down a bid to
a peace conference.
Ching called for his car and
sped to the White House himself
to make the report.
Instead of a comment, the
president said of Lewis:
His picture is there on the front
page of the Washineton Post.
Take a look at it.
The Post picture was an AP
wirephoto of a glowering Lewis
in inicago.
Mr. Truman was asked' if he
thought the steel settlements
would have been reached and the
coal strike called off at least
temporarily if the Taft-Hartley
act had not been hanging over
me unions.
The president, who wants the
Taft-Hartley law reDealed. said he
couldn't say. He suggested that
ine question oe put up to manage
ment and labor negotiators.
Ching told reporters he had
received this reply to his wire to
Lewis :
"Ching. Department 1 abor,
wasningion, u. u.
Your wire. Mine workers' reDre-
sentation will be your office 2:30
o ciock Monday.
"Lewis. Uhicaeo. Illinois."
Ching said he had asked Lewis
for a clarification" because he
said Lewis' message "appears not
to De responsive to the federal
invitation.
lhe conciliation serv ce salrt
tnat the Lewis telegram, althoueh
signed Chicago, had been sent
irom tne Washington office of
tne united Mine Workers.
Lewis "and his 200-man policy
committee had beer, in Chicago
all week. It was there that he
suddenly called off the 52-day coal
strike yesterday, ordering his
miners back to work until Nov. 30.
Lewis: presumably left Chicago
yesterday. Newsmen there saw
him leave his hotel, engage a
taxi and heard him direct the
driver to take him to a railroad
station. -
There 'was speculation that he
may have gone to Springfield, 111,-,
where his 91-year-old mother is
seriously ill.
Some of Ching's associates were
frankly 'dumbfounded by Lewis'
cavalier treatment of Ching's in
vitation to the conference this
morning.
