(Paul Jenkins) Frenzied Price War Has N.Y. City In Chaos (Continued from Page 1) are generally at high levels, that factory output is high, and that the normal way for retailers to move large stocks is to cut prices. Macy's started the price -cut putsch on Tuesday, following an announcement on Monday. A block away at Uimbel's, management said nobody would undersell them. With an enforced truce during the .Memorial day closing, the buy ing wave Thursday battered huge holes in merchandise prices. Shoppers swarmed through the store aisles like invading locusts. Many store personnel took to wear ing boutonnieres so they could tell each other from the customers. One panting woman shopper nut shelled the thoughts of many when she said: "It's good for us and good for business, because they'll unload a lot of merchandise that's been sitting around the shelves." Stort-To.Store shuttles Comparison shoppers shuttled furiously between Gimbel's and Macy's, remarkably keeping re peated price cuts at both stores Quality Smokies sC O C AReolTreot Lb.

I The central buying front was at j Gimbel's and Macy's, but other big stores in New York and Brook , lyn hurriedly sliced their prices. I Even the retail "little fellow" j entered the fracas. One Bronx ; sloreowner displayed screaming j signs "Price war, all prices i cut." I "If they want a war," the store keeper said, "this is a country of free enterprise and we can go them one better, down to the last dust cloth. Who do Macy and Gimbe! think they are?" Retailers across the country are watching the big town's retail tus sle with, some apprehension, and still more confidence that it won't last long. Few in other cities were inclined to start the price tobog gan rolling. One dealer said, "If this thing gets out of hand, it's like a pit with no bottom." One trade guess is that prices will level off t from 8 to 15 per cent below the former price-fixed levels. V til I i ? SPECIALS FOR SATURDAY, JUNE Meats 0) Teaching Slated o At Swim Pool; Opens Saturday With the advent of swimming ,.inn Merlin Donaldson, aquatic expert of the Roseburg YMCA, ad vises that tne nrsi airp umaro water safety is to learn to swim, and lo swim well. The Roseburg municipal swim ming pool will be opened to the public on Saturday afternoon. Don aldson will teach swimming at the municipal pool this summer, starting June 25. as part of the YMCA community service pro gram. A certified YMCA swimming instructor since 1942, Donaldson coached swimming and diving at Los Angeles City college for two years, and at the Surf and Sand club, llermosa Beach, for two years. Anyone is el'"ible fnr instruc tion, says Donaldson. Swimming, hlesunnii and diving are an on the agenda. Children should be from six to seven years old to st.irt learning, he says. Cards will be issued to certify comple tion of the various stages which are: Minow, (elementary), Fish, Flying Fish and Shark with junior and senior litesaving also sched uled. Diving will be taught in the advanced courses of Flying Fish ar.d Shark. Non-Swimmars Cautisnad "Those who can't swim well should not only stay out of deep water, but should also stay out of canoes and other small craft that are likelv to ransiTe." Donaldson says. "Non-swimmers and small boats form a deadly combination which is doubly lethal when mixed with deep water." If you can't swim and despite reading these rules go out in a small boat, try to cling to it, should it capsize. "Most row boats or canoes will remain anoat even ' when turned over, Donaldson says. "If non-swimmers would hang on to them instead of frantically strik ing out for shore, not nearly as many would drown." As children are victims in a majority of water accidents, much of the responsibility for preventing drownings lies with parents. Chil dren should not be entrusted to the mercies of water-wings or old tires in deep water or unguarded swimming pools. They can loso the water-wings and slip off of the tires. They should be encouraged but not forced to learn to swim, and they should learn in well guarded pools under competent adult instruction, he points out. B. J. Smilings, Resident Of Sutherlin, Passes Graveside funeral services for Bert Joseph Smilings, 63, resident of Sutherlin who died May 26, will be held at Fair Oaks cemetery east of Sutherlin Mondav. at 11 no a. m.
