Herbert Hcover May Tell Views On NLRB Fight WASHINGTON, Mrch 23 CPU Senator Taft taid Wednesday that farmer President Hoover may be asked to testify on President Tru man's proposal to abolish the in dependent general counsel of the National Labor Relations board. The Ohio Republican told a re porter he doesn't know Hoover's attitude toward the President'! move, submitted to Congress as No. 12 of 21 government reorgani zation plans. Hearings on the pro posal probably will be held by the senate expenditures committee early in April. The President's plan, in practi cal effect, would oust Robert N. Denham, NLRB general counsel who has accused the board of pro labor bias, and replace him with a counsel named by the board chair man and subject to board control. Taft left no doubt he is going all-out in an effort to defeat what he called a political move to amend the Taft-Hartley act after Congress had failed to take any such action. He conceded, however, that it may be difficult to stop the plan, since opponents must muster 49 senate votes to defeat it. Presiden tial plans become law unless one house of Congress rejects them by a constitutional majority of its members. Taft said in a statement it seems to him the President's plan "is an attempt to use the Hoover re port for political purposes and as a means of nullifying the labor management relations act of 1947."

Chuck had planned a business trip to Eugene Monday night ... to return Tuesday morning. Carrying with him what he thought to be ample funds for the short trip . . . $29.00 ... he embarked. Just south of Cottage Grove . . . whango ... a flat tire. Repairs: $10. Arrived in Eugene then . . . missed seeing a red light . . . drove blithely on through it. "That'll be $10," said the judge. At this point, the remaining $S seemed revoltingly small, so he blew it on a light snack, cigarets, and gasoline. Now what? No money, no friends in Eugene . . . banks closed . . . Chuck reluctantly started bis car and started back to Roseburg. The return trip permitted a speed of only 10 or IS m.p.h. because of heavy fog. Later on, the fog lifted ... his spirits lifted . . . and acceleration was possible. At this point, the fan belt became most uncooperative, and, with a heavy sigh. Chuck lessened the pressure on the gas pedal, resuming once more a slow crawl. Home again 3:30 a.m. We reiterate: Think you've got troubles?

Asserting that President Truman has demonstrated "great reluct ance" in enforcing the act, Taft said the Justice department seems to be ignoring the law's various provisions. "It has taken no action on per jury in non-Communist affidavits and little action, if any, on political contributions by labor unions," he said. Taft's attack on the reorganiza tion plan put hfm at odds with Senator Morse (R-Ore), another member of the Senate labor com mittee.

S Adopted Child Actress Accuses Foster Mother BEVERLY HILLS, Calif., March 2S tft Mrs. Lorraine Michel, 55, takes the witness stand today in her own defense against charges she mistreated the child she adopt ed in Texas and brought here to become a $100-a-day film player. The child, Lora Lee Michel, . has told so many versions that even an experienced juvenile au thority. Judge A. A. Scott, says "I don't know what to believe." But the fact remains that num-1 erous witnesses have testified they saw bruises on the girl and fed her because she seemed hungry. 1 Lore Lee claims she was starv- ed to keep her thin for movie roles. Mrs. Michel says -the child has a glandular condition and must be kept on strict diet. Lora Lee s drama coach, Mrs. Ona Wargin, 46, yesterday testi fied Mrs. Michel told her she had spanked the girl with a hair brush last December. She quoted Mrs. Michel as saying: "Ona, that little hussy has stol en more food and has gained a pound and I am determined to conquer her gluttonous appetite." Mrs. Wargin denied Lora Lee's previous statement that Mrs. Wargin had coached her on what to say in court and had told her to steal milk and cottage cheese from neighbors' doorways. Mrs. Michel and her husband. Otto, 61, adopted Lora Lee in Schu lenberg, Tex., in 1945. Juvenile court recently denied a move by the natural mother, Mrs. Lena Brunson, Nederland, Tex.f to re gain custody. Then, after the girl's second complaint to authorities, Lora Lee was taken from the Michela and placed in custody of the juvenile court pending further investigation, and the outcome of the current trail of Mrs. Michel on misdemesnor charges. Easter Seal Sale Making Progress The first week of the annual Easter Seal sale of the Oregon Society for Crippled Children and Adults has been "most satisfac tory," Jesse Rosenbaum LaGrande, society president, has advised Mrs. Helen Clarke of Roseburg, Doug las county chairman. Rosenbaum said statewide re sults "are such aa to give us every encouragement that the society's program will be carried on with out curtailment during the com ing year." All counties, including Douglas, are measuring up to pre campaign hopes, he reported. "If we can continue the pace set in the first week, the crippled children and adults benefiting from Easter Seals need have no wor ries about the future," Rosenbaum stated in his report to Mrs. Clarke. "However, we must make sure there Is no let-down as the Easter Seal sale progresses." The society president urged the M county chairmen in the state to "exert every effort during the next three weeks so that the chil- eV" ma " feeturine alna acts ef veui-eville direet frem rke femeus Herece HtUt Radio Shew.
