Price Picture
On Christmas
Foods Spotty
By The AuorUtH Prtn
While food men try to figure out
how the government's voluntary
price freeze will affect price tags,
shoppers stocking the family lar
der for Christmas this week will
find:
1. Turkey prices down two to
seven cents a pound in most re
tail stores compared with last
week, but up a few cents from
Thanksgiving time.
2. Beef cuts unchanged to two
cents a pound higher than last
weekend, pork and lamb un
changed to six cents higher, but
chickens slightly lower.
3. Eggs off three to as much as
19 cents a dozen the sharper re
ductions in those marketing centers
which were slower to come down
last week when egg prices started
their plunge from record or near
rcortl peaks.
4. Th6ose big oranges for the
youngsters' Christmas stockings
lower than last week, along with
western apples, iceberg lettuce, and
onions but cranberries, large
grapefruit, beets, good celery ana
spinach slightly higher, and nuts
about the same as at Thanks
giving. 5. And bread, shortening, cook
ing oils and a few canned fruits,
vegetables and meats up a cent or
two.
Prit Fri's Effect Eyed
Spokesmen tor several large
food manufacturers, wholesalers
and retail chains sahl it was still
too early to determine how the
Economic Slabiliatinn agency's
price freeze call on Tuesday will
apply to a host of increases on
food products since the base date
of December 1.
They pointed out that the de
fense production act already pro
vides that no price controls can be
slapped on farm prmlucts which
are selling below oarity (the le
gally fixed price deemed equally
fair to farmers and those who buy
their products). And only a few
meats, cottonseed oil and rice were
above parity when the latest gov
ernment report on farm prices
was issued last month.
However, the freeze formula
asks distrinutnrs to hold their gross
margins to last June's figures,'
and this should tend to restrict
advances at the wholesale and re
tail levels.
The Agrirulliire department
headlined turkeys and cranberries
on this week's list of most-plenti
ful foods for thrifty buying. Others:
honey and peanut butter for Christ
mas cookies; cheese, potato chips
and pop corn for snacks; apples,
oranges, grapefruit, pork, chicken,
mtaloes, onions, carrots and cab
age. Horn From Portland Mrs. L.
W. Metzger and Mrs. Victor Short
are hark at their homes in Rose
burg, following several days in
Porlland visiting relatives and at
tending to business.

is deceptive. He lived in Germany
at the peak of Hitler's power and ,
then as Hitler slipped, saw the city
of Berlin crumble around his ears,
from Allied bombing.
He was born in riorlin in 19.10
and the year Hitler came to power,
hi folks took him to Tilsit in East
Prussia. He returned to Berlin in
and graduated from high
school there in 1948. In 1947 he
worked on the Berlin newspaper
"Abend," and in 1949, he and a
Uroup of young people founded
"Dor .luKcndspiegel" (The Youth
Mirror) as a voice for the approx
imately loo.ooo unemployed and
unstabilized young people in Ber

Boy Scouts Aidtd
Also in his short life, Maeding
helped reactivate the Boy Scout
movement in Berlin and establish
the Free university in west Ber
lin. Maeding said that since Ber
lin university is in the eastern sec
tor, it is under Communist dom
ination. In order to counter this,
the Free university has been es
tablished: since the war to foster
free thought and study.
"We have been sent to the
United States to see democracy as
it works as here in Koseburg
in tne nnmes and businesses, '
he said. "Then, perhaps, we can
apply that knowledge to our own
situation in Germany," he contin
ued. "When we are called 'ex

an exchange of students, hut ex
change of cultures. We tell you of

Speech Restored
After 12 Years
SAN FRANCISCO (JP) Geor
gette Umbson enjoyed "the grand
est present possible" on her 23rd
birthday Wednesday. . . . speech.
Until a week ago, she hadn't been
able to say a wortl in 12 years.
On new year's day 1939, Geor
gette t;en an active fifth grade
pupil in nearby Hayward, fell vic
tim of sleeping sickness.
For three weeks she slept. When
she awoke, she was paralyzed.
Her eyes open, but unable to
move a muscle, she lay until six
months ago. when her mother and
father brought her to University of
California's Langley poller clinic.
Neuropathology therapists fin
ally brought a flutter of movement
to Georgette's dormant muscles.
She gradually learned to move
her arms, her legs. She learned to
walk a little. But she didn't speak
a word until a week ago. Then she
suddenly cried "ouch" as a doctor
worked over her muscles.
Then the words, long dammed
up. came tumbling out in a tor
rent. It was Mrs. Umbson, not Geor
gette, who was speechless that day.
"Hello, mother." Georgette said.
her eyes twinkling, "I want a plaid
skirt, like the other girls wear, for
Christmas."
When Mrs. Umbson coulll find
her voice she exclaimed: "What
a Christmas this is going to be
thank God!."

Stalin's Birthday
Hailed By People
Of Stooge Bloc
By Th Aunrlald Preu '
Today is Joseph Stalin's birth
day he's 71 and while his con
trolled press at home once a,ain
hailed him in extravagant prose,
Communists in the ring uf states
around Russia pulled out all the
stops attempting to outdo each
other in praising him.
In Moscow east Berlin, Prague,
Solia, Bucharest, Budapest and
Warsaw, th Communist press
chorused praise of the aman in the
Kremlim in phrases like these:
"Greatest scientist of our time."
"Leader of the world peace
camp."
"Defender of the worker."
"Great genius Stalin."
Leningrad's city Soviet an
nounced a decision to rename In
ternational prospect (street) and
its continuation, the Moscow high
way. From now on, it's J. V. Stalin
prospect.
Albania renamed the city of Ku
chevo. The address now is Stalin,
Albania.
Czechoslovakia's army news
paper, Obrana Lidu, dubbed its top
editorial, "generalissimo peace."
In the east zone of Germany, the
Brandenburg steel' works opened
a new oven in honor of Staun's
hirthda) announcing it would
"produce steel for peace."
Express train service between
Prague and Berlin wa bgun un
der banners reading: "Greetings
to the great Stalin."
Other worldly matters in the
press of the Communist stales were
pushed into the background even
the denunciations of the west. The
Soviet army newspaper in Berlin,
Taeglische Rundschau, published a
sharp editorial on the results of
the Brussels conference, but it was
relegated to an ohscure position.
Moscow's press reacted true to
form. Pravda and Izvcstia printed
the same editorial, entitled: "all
conquerin? force of the ideas of
Lenin-Stalin."
Stalin had one gift from western
Berlin to mull over. An organiza
tion called "the fighting group
against inhumanity" wrote that
they wanted to remind him of the
German prisoners of war still in
the Soviet union.
They sent him a wreath made of
barbed wire.

ings. -.
Sixteen-year-oUl George Haller

sailant last night while he was walk
ing on a street in the Juniata park
section, some four miles from

housewife, was slain Saturday
night.
Earlier vesterdav a 54-year-old
man was shot in south Philadelphia
hv another bullet fired out of the
dark by an unseen marksman. The
victim of this pre-dawn shooting
was Richard C. Lavery, Republican
division committeeman and job
printer. Police are inclined to dis
count this shooting as. being the
work of the "mad sniper" who
struck down Mrs. Cohen in Oak
Lane.
Haller, a pupil at Benjamin
Franklin high school, was hit in
the shoulder by a bullet from a .22
caliber rifle, akin to th gun used
against Mrs. Cohen. He was not in
jured seriously. '
Lavery was hit by a .32 caliber
bullet fired into his. back. His con
dition is critical. He was' struck
near the doorway of a club where
