Cigaret Fair Trade Measure
Endorsed By Oregon House
SALEM i AP) A cigaret fair trade bill was passed
4 to 18 by the House Friday and sent to the governor.
It would prevent sale of cigarets as loss leaders.
Sponsors said it wauld force dealers selling: cigarets
for $1.45 a carton tc r-ise their price about two cents a
package. But the opponents charged the rise might be
to $1.90 a carton
The price rise would be in ad
dition to the 3-rent a package
cigaret tax which the House passed
Thursday and sent to the Senate.
The bill, applying only to cigarets,
compels retailers to sell at least
for cost plus 10 percent. The mark

would be H percent.

Bodies and debris were scat

an oat field.
The tragedy near t-ere was the
air force', second costly mishap is

killed and five injured when a B-2
cracked up and burned Thursday
in the Azores while making aa
emergency landing.
The B-29 was stationed at Walker
air force base, Roswell, N. M-,
and was on a training mission.
The F-Sl disintegrated. The six
engine B-38, stationed at Carawell
air force base at Fort Worth, bruke

The B-36 waa getting ready to
make its simulated bombing run
on the capital city 50 airline

could not see the high flying craft
but heard a plana going into a

"Then we heard a crash. Second,
later, pieces of the plsnes and bod
ies began falling all over. Wa hit
the ground. "I saw six parachutea
floating around. We found f out
bodies scattered in a field. There
was ona near a watering pone."
Five recognizeable chunks of tha
bomber were found.
A section off tha fuselage with
the wings and engines intact smoW

The body ot the F-Sl pilot, his par

nearby. He was a member of tha
recently federalized Oklahoma air

wing and tail section.
The tail assembly was a mile
north with three bodies nearby.
Across a section line wss the bomb

body caused a 10-inch impression
in the earth.
The B-36 crash was the fourth la

It had the six gasoline-powered en
