State Meat Inspection
Voted By Cattlemen
KLAMATH FALLS, May 13. (JP
The Oregon Cattlemen's associa
tion yesterday elected William Kit
tredge, Klamath county rancher,
as president for the next year.
The convention voted for atate
inspection of meat, but recom
mended voluntary rather than
compulsory grading. This followed
an appeal by Mrs. Norton L. Peck,
a Portland housewife, who urged
the cattlemen to work for state
inspection and federal grading.
Mrs. Perk appeared here as the
chairman of the American Home
Economics association home mak
ing committee. She said some low
grade beef is sold in Portland "un
der meaningless grade A and AA
labels." She said the price was
the same for the low grades as
for good grades of beef.
"You producers don't get the
extra price for this mislabeled
meat," she said. "Why should we
consumers pay extra?"
French-German Industry
Plan Rapped By Russians
BERLIN, May 13. (,"P The Sov
iet army'a newspaper here charged
today that the Schuman plan for
pooling French and German coal
and steel production was part of a
"war conspiracy" against Russia.
The entire Russian controlled
press here attacked the plan. One
paper called it a "scheme for a
mammoth cartel, inspired by Wall
street, to give the United States
control over West European indus
try." The army paper "Taegliche
Rundschau'' asserted: "The whole
idea is to merge west European po
tential, especially west Germany's,
for the purposes of a war con
spiracy. It ties up international
capital with the war pact of the
Atlantic system. "

sought five minutes of President
Truman's time yesterday, she got
10 seconds and a view of his bark,
and then found herself off the

said late yesterday.
She said she had flown 1.200
miles to Coulee City, Wash., from
Los Angeles to plead against pro
posed closing of th Birmingham
hospital at Van Nuys, Calif., where
paraplegics those paralyzed in
the lower half of the body are be

A few hours after tbe incident,
she told about it on arrival here
before flying back to Los An

at Coulee City, shook hands with
the President and inquired. 'You
got my telegram?' "
"Yes, I know what you mean,"
she said the President replied, re
ferring to her telegraphic request
that he listen to her plea in be-
nait of the hospital.
"Well, Mr. President," she con
tinued, "you know 1 am interested
in those boys at Birmingham hos

"The whole thing's a pressure
deal and I won't have a thing to

her hand firmly as he edged her
to one side, then turned to shake
hands with a growing swarm of
politicians, she recalled. Next
thing she knew she had been eased
down the platform steps, almost
in tears, she said.
"I think he is burned up about
the matter and doesn't want to talk
about it." she commented, indi

Postcard Attack
Charged In Race
PORTLAND, May 13-) The
primary campaign was enlivened
here today by Al Brown's com
plaint of an anonymous postcard
attack against him.
Brown, County Clerk and Demo
cratic candidate for Multnomah
county commissioner, said the post
cards were printed on an addres
sograph in the Walter J. Pearson-for-Governor
office here.
Pearson denied any knowledge of
them, but said the machine had
been made available for all Demo
cratic candidates. Workers in the
office said many had used it. They
said they could not determine who
might havo printed the cards.
Democrats Hichard L. Neuberger
and Austin Flegel, the latter a
Pearson rival, asked the district
attorney to investigate. Unsigned
political postcards are a violation
of the corrupt practices act.
The cards asked why Brown was
running for commissioner when his

carries a higher salary.
