Salesmanship Session Will Be Conducted Here f Davis-Thompson sales consult ants, Portland, will open a sales session in Roseburg, to be held Jan. 23, 24, 25 and 26, between the hours of 7:30 and .9:30 p.m. The session will be held upstairs in the armory. A complete analysis of the pro gram was given by Tommy Thompson, a member of ihe sales firm, in a talk before the Retail Trades association Wednesday noon in the Hotel Umpqua. The session will be conducted by Norman Davis. Thompson will be in town this week and next to contact merchants and make ar rangements. "There is no place in Roseburg for high pressure salesmanship, ' Thompson emphasized in his talk before the merchants Wednes day. However, he stated, there is a definite need for the promo tion of good will between mer chants and customers, which will result in greater sales volume, and better satistaction lor tne customer. "The sales person meetine cus- tnmp tnrlnv is rinilv lnnWnff in ......... u J ... known selling skill," said Thomp son. New sales people have nev er had selling experience: old- timers have not 'had to sell for six lone years, thereby forget ting much of the art of selling. Todays research and in-firm checking show the typical sales person either unfamiliar with or out of prafctice in handling , to day's problems on the floor." I The consultants recently con ' ducted a sales session in Med ford and several local persons attended. Marlow Believes Russians Plot For High U.S. Spending By JAMES MARLOW WASHINGTON UP) The cold war with communism is costing you plenty. II it weren't for that, this country's spending and your taxes to cover the spending would be away down. That's the one point which stands out above all others in the budget President Truman sent Congress this week. The cost of the. cold war, big- as it is, is cheaper, of course, than a shooting war. That would cost far more, plus blood. meres no certainty only hope that the cost of the cold war will decrease. It's the cold war mainly that's keeping the U. S. in the red, It's spending more than its income, more than it collects in taxes. . Debt Expected Because of this more expense than income Mr. Truman fig ures this year and next will put i' another $11 billion in debt. It's nice to believe, or hope, that as Europe gets back on its feet, we'll be able to cut down the billions we're pouring into the Marshall plan. But by the time the Marshall plan is supposed to end, new crises may arise, requiring more billions in Europe or elsewhere. As for cutting down on national defense which is to keep us ready if we have to go to war or discourage the Russians from making war that depends: It depends on whether, for in- shooting? One nice way is to keep CZECH JEWS EMIGRATE PRAGUE! UP) Between 22,000 and 24,000 Czech Jews have emi grated from this country since May, 1948, Jewish sources here reported recently. About 17,000 remain. Only three or four thou sand have gone to countries other than Israel. stance, the Russians somehow suddenly and unexpectedly be come nice little boys. They 3how no signs of folding up, particularly now that they can use the atom. ' An communism shows no signs of ceasing its endless pushing. Stopped in Europe, at least tem porarily, it found a soft touch in China and pushed there. It will push where it can. ut yourself in the positions of the Russians for a moment. Sup pose you were they. You see the U. S., your only great opponent, rich and well able to make ter rible war right now. You're not ready for a great war at least, not yet. In time, maybe, you will be. Since right now you can't fight a shooting war with the U. S., you want to weaken it as much as vou can. Ho do you do it, short of the U. S. Jittery, ever on the alert. Keeps U. S. Spending In this way you keep the U.S. spending billions on defense or foreign aid. running into debt year after year, sapping the solid foundations of the economy. In this way you force through this arms and aid spending the U. S. to operate on a false econ omy. If the U. S. can't keep this up endlessly, some day it may crash, economically. If that happess, there'll be a world depression, you figure. And the U. S. won't be able to help its allies, economically. That 'will make them a softer touch for an overthrow by the Communists inside or outside those countries. Well, how do you keep the U. S. spending those cold war bil lions, running up debt, living be yonc its means? If you were a Russian, you might figure it this way: Be ugly, be aggressive, push where you can, spread commun ism where you can, short of shoot ing till you are ready. In short, keep the U. S. spend ing its head off. Jobless Pay Board Asks Mort Funds To Meet Claims SALEM UP) The State Unem ployment Compensation commis sion wants authority to spend $15,700,000 more during the first half of this year to pay Jobless pay claims. The request will be considered by the State Emergency board next Friday. The commission's budget for the current fiscal year, which ends next July 1, is $11,300,000. But heavy unemployment al ready has forced the commission to pay out $10,600,000 during the first half of the fiscal year. The commission has plenty of money in its trust fund. But it needs emtrgency board approval before it can spend more than its budget. The State Welfare commission will ask the emergency board for permission to spend $2,267,000 which the commission had left over from the past biennium. The commission said it needs to spend that money because its current $55,000,000 two-year budget will be too small. Jealous Sailor Hurls Bomb Into Bar, Wrecks Place SAN DIEGO, Calif., Jan. 12 UP) An apparently - Jealous sail or, police said, threw a bomb into a bar and cafe here early Wed nesday. It wrecked the place but no one was injured. Franklin Bolan, 20, of the U.S. Destroyer Buck, was booked on a charge of suspicion of malicious use oi explosives. He denied throwing the bomb, which the fire marshal said was probably a small type used by tne Navy in underwater demolition. It fell behind the bar and bounced Into a bucket of water, as it exploded. Jnve persons were in the cale. Police said Harold Keller told them the young sailor wanted a woman to leave with him. He was quoted by Keller: "If you don't get that gin out oi nere 1 U come back and blow the joint up." He came back, Keller's report to police added, and shouted: "Here's something for you" then threw the bomb. Bolan was knocked out by a policeman's flying tackle as he fled. The cafe is across the street from the sheriff's office and county Jail. SPECIAL! REAL BUYS Set Pag. 9 Thurs., Jon. 12, 1950 Th.

DALE'S CAFE North Umpqua Road Air Force Wants More Planes But Money Lacking WASHINGTON W) The Air Force still thinks at least 70 groups of warplanes are needed for defense, but is bowing to the : fact that the money to buy them isn't at hand. r Secretary of Air Symington set forth his ideas in a general news conference of the entire Penta gon high command on the bud get. Among other things, Secre tary of Defense Johnson said the $13,500,000,000 budget proposed for all the armed services was trimmed down from an original $20,000,000,000 estimate of needs. The new budget, to cover the year beginning next July 1, pro poses 48 groups and 13 separate squadrons, about the present form of the air force which early last year was at a peak postwar strength of 59 groups. The Navy has been pared even more in the air. Admiral Forrest P. Sherman, chief of naval oper ations, told the news conference that during the fiscal year end ing June 30, 1949, the Navy had 24 carrier air groups, was cut to 14 during the current fiscal year but is now down to 10 under the economy program and is scheduled to total only nine by next July 1. Navy patrol squad rons now total 25, will be cut lo 20 by next July. Marine squad rons numbered 23 in fiscal 1949, are now 16, will be cut to 12. Johnson emphasized that de spite the cuts, the fighting force., will be better off. This, he said, was because more men will be "pulled off desk jobs In the Pen tagon and elsewhere and sent into regiments." HARRY C.
