NEW YORK, April 29. UPt A
conditional arbitration offer by
landlord! wu rejected today by
striking apartment home workeri,
whose walkout has turned Manhat
tan's skyscraper dwellings Into
walkupa.
Landlords had offered to submit
the dispute to an arbitrator pro
viding any awards granted the
union would be deferred until land
lords get relief from the current
rent frt-ie.
The union said employer! "must
think ua naive" to expect accept
ance of such an offer.
Negotiations were to resume this
afternoon In tin three-day-old
strike, that has halted elevators and
disrupted dotens of other services
in Manhattan's tall, beehive-like
dwellinrs.
Garbaje was beginning to colli t
and poil on the uppe- floors of
the city a skyscraper apartment.
Mail lay unsorted In the foyers.
Grocery boys refused to deliver
. food to the higher floors where
whole families were mirooned.
And tenants, short of breath and
with aching feet and legs, plodded
u flight after flight of stairs.
Some of the 1,000 struck buildings
have 30 floors or more.
Meanwiiile, the jinking r embers
of the FL Building Service Em
ployes International union and the
apartment house o-vners still were
deadlocked over the major issue
wsge .
The strikers, who Include service
men and Janitors as well as ele
vator operators, want $2 75 more a
week, a 40-hour Instead of a 49
hour week, and a pension plan. The
union says present wagea average
145 50 to $50.32.

Mtthod To Evtn Cuts
(Continued from page One)
various levies on tobacco. It ap
peared, too. to be ignoring Mr.
Truman's request that a new 10
percent tax be levied on television
seta.
It slowed down the chopping
when it got near the end of the
excise list, after bursting out of
the President's limits at the start.
In the travel, transportation and
communication items the President
hsd suggested cuts of $505,000,000.
The committee held them to $357,
000,000. In detail, this is what the com
mittee recommended yesterday:
Night clubs reversed Thurs
day's action, to approve a slash
from 20 percent to 10 in the im
post on night club bills. This would
save patrons about $19,000,000 a
year, it decided, too, to exempt
from the cabaret or night club tax
the ordinary dance hall where pop
is soia on tne sine.
Local telephones slash the IS
percent tax on residential tele
phone bills to 10. Retain the IS per
cent rate on business telephones
On so-called "short-tolls" of resi
dential or business telephones the
tax would be reduced from 15 per
cent to 10 on charges under 25
cents. President Truman had re
quested no reduction in the tax on
local telephones.
Long distance telephone and
radio telephone reduce the
25 percent tax to 20 percent. The
President suggested a cut to IS
percent.
Telegraph slash the 25 percent
rate to 10 percent. Here the cut was
deepter than Mr. Truman pro
posed. He suggested 15 percnet.
Travel ticketa trim the IS
percent impost to 10 percent This
would mean a saving of $75,000,
000 a year for persons riding rail
roads, airplanes, buses, and the
like. The cut conforms with what
the President asked.
Transportation of freight cut
the 3 percent tax to lVi percent.
Mr. Truman asked that this tax
be removed completely. The com
mittee said also the transportation
tax on coal should be cut from
4 cents a ton to 2 cents. Such
reductions would save transport
ers of freight about $165,000,000
annually.
Leased wires 25 percent to
20 percent. Press wires already
are exempt
Rebuilt and reconditioned auto
parte exempt them from the
5 percent manufacturera' excise
I levy.
j Radio acts exempt from the
1 10 percent manufacturera' excise
j those communication and naviga
tion acta sold to the government.

Charges. Countercharges
Hurled In Milk Price War
Charges, and countercharge
were being tossed back and forth
today in Roseburg's milk price
war.
Distributors claimed they were
being threatened with "control of
our businesses by the unions,"
while producers accused distrib
utors of cuting prices to the farm
ers but not passing benefits on to
consumers.
Meanwhile prospect were that
picket lines, possibly starting on
Monday, will curtail milk distribu
tion.
There la a principle involved in
this matter that is just too much
for us to take," said H. V. Sulli
van of the Umpqua dairy, spokes
man for the distributors. "If the
unions can tell ua where we must
buy our milk and what we must
pay for It, they can tell a grocery
man where he must buy bis mer
chandise and how he must run
his business. This is not in keep
ing with American tradition. If it
is permitted, free enterprise is
doomed.
Sullivan said that prices paid
producers in the Roseburg area
are aa high as in any comparable
community.
"Plenty of producers," he
added, "are satisfied with our
pricea, for we have offera of 2,000
gallons dally from Eugene, more
milk from Grants Pass, and a
large supply from the western
part of Douglas county."
Claiming that a surplus of both
milk and butter exists, Sullivan
said, "lower prices are needed to
increase consumption."
"The whole issue," said Sulli
van, "is whether the unions can
tell us how we shall run our bus
inesseswhere we shall buy milk
and what prices we shall pay."
Organized producers, through
their president, Al Binder, and
secretary-treasurer, Al Hooten. to
day issued a formal, statement as
follows:
"We producers are dairy farm
ers affiliated with the Umpqua
Valley Milk Producers association.
The members of our organization
produce over M per cent of the
grade A milk in the Rosebuig
area mllkshed.
"We were very surprised to rend
an advertisement in the local
newspsper stating that we reeoe.
nize and are cooperating to cut
the price that we are receiving
for our milk. At present we are
wonting aoout it nours a day and
our wagea average out about 40
cents an hour, and no overtime.
We certainly do not feel we can
accept any cut which will make
this still lower. The distributors
have intcrnreted the minimum
rate to be paid to us farmers as

The committee decided the S

being the maximum. They do not
seem to interpret it that way when
it applies to them, because we
have a letter on file from Thomas
Ohlsen to Mr. Hooten, stating that
minimum price to be paid by the
public is It cents a quart. It teems
evident that the distributors want
to pay ua the lowest they legally
can, yet do not want to pass all
of this along to the public. There
haa been no change in the mini
mum price set by the Milk Con
trol board since last November.
We expect to get the same rev
enue from our Grade A milk as
do the dairy farmera in the Grants
rass and Medford areas.
"We feel sure the people of
noseourg want ua to opera's a
buainesa above board, and when
they know all the facts will sup
port us against further cuts. We
also leel sure the people of Rose
burg know how necessary good,
clean, sanitary, inspected grade
A milk is to the Jiealth and wel
fare of the entire community
"We have heard that milk will
be brought into the Roseburg area
from the outside and that it would
be marketed as grade A milk. We
have reason to believe that the
public may receive milk which
is not produced under grade A
standards, and we hope an inspec
tor will carefully check this out.
"The Oregon State college,
through its statisticians, has set
the cost of producing 4 per cent
milk, during March, at $6.32. This
is considerably above what we
we r e getting before we were
threatened with a cut."
Distributors, according to their
spokesmen, are anticipating Uut
an attempt will be made to en
force demands through use of a
picket line. The producers' asso
ciation recently affiliated with the
A. F. of L. Union participation
has been largely directed by the
Tear sters union, because of its
part in handling milk transporta
tion. No formal statement has
been forthcoming regarding the
establishment of picket lines. Dis
tributors said, however, they were
anticipatng picket lines Monday.

30.Douks Get
3-Year Terms
NELSON, B. C, April 29 i.V
Doukhobor women, bent on
shucking their clothes, were quicker
on the drawstring yesterday than
police were on the draw.
Asa result one managed to do
a complete strip-act and others
bared themselves to the waist at
their trial here before blushing
bobbies could cover them with
blankets.
The police were caught flat
footed by a new surprise disrob
ing technique. The women had al
tered their garments so a quick
pull on a hidden drawstring
would leave them in eve's en
semble. The undressing took only
five seconds.
Anticipating an outbreak of nu
dism, the coppers had come equip
ped with a big supply of blankets.
The only trouble was the new
zip-and-it's-off maneuver.
All of which overshadowed the
serious business of the trail. Thirty
men and women, all members of
the Doukhobor extremist branch,
the Sons of Freedom, each were
sentenced to three years in pri
son They had been charged with
parading in the nude.
The Douks have traditionally dis
robed as a symbol of protest and
contend their nude demonstrations
are signs of equality.

Change in
ma
The dairies In Roseburg are modernizing their retail milk de
livery system, the same as is being done in quite a number of other
cities, to the full satisfaction of the retail customers.
From now on, every customer will know exactly what day his
milk delivery will come. Until now, there was much confusion
because every other week the delivery was on a different day.
Effective May 1, the delivery of milk to the homes will be the same
day every week. This will be done by eliminating Sunday deliveries.
You, the customer, will find this new delivery system very
satisfactory. All the dairies are in full agreement and assure all their
customers, as always, of faithful effort to complete satisfaction.
Every customer will receive a pamphlet that will explain the new
delivery plan.
