STANTON Anglers planning to fish Winchester bay during the coming season are warned about a new danger. Improvement work at the mouth of the Umpqua river has narrowed the throat, Frank L. Taylor, Reedsport hardware merchant, re ports. Tides now sweep in and out at approximately six knots per hour. Current velocity is expected to scour sands from the bar, thus increasing water depth, but an extreme hazard is thereby produced for small boats. Small outboard motors lack power to buck such tides. If the wind is wrong, even heavy motors would find it difficult to make headway. Winchester bay can be extremely dangerous at times. Storms strike suddenly, building up waves large enough to swamp smnll craft. Fishing normajly is done close to the bar, where fish enter from the ocean to feed. Numerous narrow escapes have been reported, although no fatalities have occurred to date. Use of the bay for sports angling is increasing annually by leaps and bounds. More and more boats are in evidence. Many of these boats are designed for inland waters and are lacking in size and freeboard needed for Winchester bay. Too, many anglers are not skilled in handling boats in coastal bays, where conditions frequently are much dif ferent than in sheltered rivers. Protection Is Lacking The Umpqua Coast Guard station is undermanned and lacks equipment and funds to provide police and protection services. Efforts have been made to obtain larger allot ments because of the extensive recreational use of the bay and the increasing danger. These efforts so far have been unsuccessful. Members of the Winchester Bay Recreational Parks as sociation do their best, with volunteer help and equipment, to police the waters. These volunteer workers lack author ity, however, and frequently find -themselves receiving in sults from anglers to whom warnings are issued. Too, there is no organized service and watchers are not present at a 1 1 times. Undoubtedly Winchester bay will have its share of cas ualties. It is only through good luck and vigilance that no tragedies have occurred to date. Certainly the carelessness of some anglers has courted accidents. Fishermen persist in the use of skiffs too smnll for the type of water being fished. Boats are overloaded. Operators venture too far out on the bar with inadequate boats and mo tors. Boats continually work into the main channel, the, only route for commercial craft, slowing traffic to a crawl, while risking the danger of being swamped by swells. The edge of the bar teems with boats during an outgoing tide when motor failure could easily cause the craft to be swept out to sea. A few tragedies may teach the needed lesson of cau tion, but that is a hard way to learn. It would be far better if anglers realized the danger surrounding them and prac ticed safety voluntarily. The Big Wheel In The Nation's Capital VflL ' Ms nei ni-t fl Wy-V '11 ft Fulton Lewis Jr. In The Day's News By FRANK JENKINS (Continued from page Onn are served salt hut no popper. At the same time, he added, he has been informed that the army has purchased nearly two million pounds of black pepper since Inst July 1. This amount, he said he was told, is sufliciont lo feed more than ten million fighting men for ton years." It might all he true. And I imag ine it's true Ihnt the hoys at ( amp Huckcr could do without pepper for a few days without any permanent harm. And I'll confess that if on last July 1 (four days after the Korean war started) 1 had been charged with the job of buying enough pep per to keep the boys happy for Ihe duration I might have bought a couple of million pounds of it. Besides, I know some people who bought enough pepper In last a t least several years and slashed it away in their cupboards just in case. More about pepper: When the pinch came, along to ward the tail end of the last war, and tl looked like there just I was sunk. To me, a fried egg without a nice coating of black pep per scatlered tastefully over it, is a loathsome object. In this grave emergency,- some body smuggled me a can of the stuff. 1 was happy beyond measure as I scattered it liberally over the fried eggs and the mashed polaloes and the gravy and the what have you. I didn't find out for weeks that it was this synthetic stuff that has about as much in common wilh real pepper as t he paper shoe soles we used lo get had lo do wilh real lealher. The point is I didn't even know Ihe difference until somebody lold mo! That's why I think Ihe hoys down at Camp Kucker haven't suffered much because of Iheir temporary shortage of pepper. Just a thought in closing: Whaddya reckon would happen if a hunch of Russian conscripts KIl'KKD ABOUT HAVING NO I'Kl'I'KR? I don't know, but 1 have a notion that what they'd be told wouldn't be nice. One of the very nicest things ahout our military system is the Kit, In of every citizen soldier to WASHINGTON1 Administration politicians are badly stumped over what to do about the labor leaders who got sore and quit when Defense Mobilizer Charles K. Wilson refused to let them run the defense program. Nobody, nol even Ihe working men they profess lo love, thought the labor bosses would jump off the bridge ihey had so carefully built to the baefdoor of Ihe While House. In fact, il was for union members that labor leaders la bored in securing a price control agency and oilier clutches on Ihe nation's economy. Or so they said. When Wilson got rough, however, and lold labor advisers on Ihe various agencies, bureaus and commissions set up to control the economy that wage controls are a slice of Ihe cake Ihey want lo eat, the gentlemen departed, wounded in pride and mumbling in sorrow. All of Ihis has a somewhat dizzy side lo it. The labor bosses talked a lot about Mr. Truman being Iheir boy in 1948 when he wanted to get back into the While House. Now they won't even give Ihe President the time of day. It's either Ihe first learn for them or they won't play. The cane-carrying Mr. Truman is strolling around the streets of Key West, Florida acting like a man without a care in the world. He left the piqued labor bosses back in Washington squarely in the lap of William Boyle, chair man of Ihe Democratic National commillee. II would have boon nice lo have dumped them in the office of John Sleelman. Ihe Presi dent's advisor on labor matters, hut Sleelman is already in labor' doghouse. He muffed Ihe railroad strike, they insist. Boyle, somewhat more than tem porarily engaged in keeping his feel dry from the backwash of Ihe Reconstruction Finance corpor ation scandal, wanted Ihe job of placating labor bosses about as badly as he wanted leprosy. As any good doctor of politics knows, you don I try to banuaue up a labor 1 a voice in the mobilization pro gram. It would be nonsense if labor were not allowed strong rep resentation on any and all bu reaus, agencies or commissions set up lo run the mobilization pro gram. But wages, like prices arc everybody's business not just la bor's. And it's appropriate lo re mind union bosses that other peo ple, along with union members, earn wages also, although you'd have lo scrape -around to find a white collar worker who thinks he is as well off as a bricklayer. Union bosses approached the government's mobilization pro gram wilh the same attitude they have when negotiating wilh man agement in a labor dispute. When the argument got rough they walked out on strike, accusing big business of committing fouls. The kids in Korea probably would like to pick up their ritles and head for the quiet hills of home also, but few are on the way. A lot of them even stay around for the shooting when Iheir hearts aren't in it but at least they stay and fiuht. Maybe the labor leaders who took Ihe walk have a better case than has so far been presented to Ihe American people. If Ihey have, they ought to state it from Ihe housetops, because a lot of good citizens, judging from my mail, can't understand why the bosses quit when the battle was just be ginning. Thai sorl of stuff is rem iniscent of Vishinskv, Malik and Co. in Ihe U. N. Maybe, however, they haven't got a good case and the less said about it the belter. Mobilization Boss Wilson has so far failed lo jump through any hoops as a re sult of the walkout, lie doesn't even appear worried. T h a t's Bovle's chore.

British Annoyed By Propaganda Of Chinese Reds By MILTON MARMOR SINGAPORE (JP) Communist China's steady propaganda blasts against the British in Malaya are finally beginning to rile the usually placid Britons, who would rather do business with China than argue with her. Peiping radio'i insistence that Britain admit a team of Chinese Reds to "investigate conditions of the persecuted overseas Chinese in Malaya" and Chinese action in going over everyone's head to cable Prime Minister Attlee direct for admission here, evoked the com ment "bloody rude" frem one top British source. Concerned With Butineti However, the Reds' hammering has not affected the main concern of Singapore more business. So the big subject in most newspaper and other circles is stilt America's ceasing to purchase tin because of "gouging" by producers here. Nevertheless, more attention is now being given to the Communist assaults on the British. Newspa pers still fume against the Ameri cans wht won't pay tin prices, but they are beginning to mention Peiping's proposed "Peoples Relief administration" mission to Malaya. The authoritative Singapore Straits Times which generally re flects British opinion here, says "There is no doubt what the Brit ish government's answer will be to the demand." It added: "It will be best if the demand is entirely ignored." No Answer Needed The Times editorial said the of ficial Chinese Communist press makes clear the intention of the proposed lied mission and "says the British government should in struct the federal government to annul all emergency legislation and release all persons now detained." "There is no need," the Times continued, "to give it the dignity of an official answer. There are proper channels for any represen tations which Peiping may care to make and the fact that there has been no attempt to use them suggests that the Peiping govern men does not believe in its own propaganda." Malaya has been harassed for nearly three years by terrorists lurking in the jungles. They are remnants of Communist-led Anti Japanese guerrilla forces. vagrant Jailed Ezra Judith Slaggs, 28, an Al bany construction worker, peaded guilty to a charge of vagrancy Monday and was sentenced to serve 30 days in the Dogglas county jail, reports District Judge A.

In the event' the money is not paid, Ihe plaintiff asks mortgage , lureclosure on certain real prop- erly. The plaintiff also asks that : claims against the real and per- sonal properly held by Ihe Stale Unemployment Compensa tion commission, the United Males and others be declared inferior to his.

The February figures, coupled with tlwse of January, bring the state's 1951 traffic violation convic tii.ns to 5.528. Drunk driving con victions for the two month period total 3t9, a slight increase over the same period last year. Oregon law requires courts to revoke the driv ers license of anyone convicted of driving while intoxicated, the divi sion pointed out. These figures, the safely men said, are important in that they give an indication of the potential accident drivers in Ihe state. Na tional studies, based on accident experience throughout the coun try, show that drivers who disobey traffic rules and regulations are more likely lo have accidents than non-violators.
