It was not a notable week for in-
dustrial production because of the
New Year's Day holiday interrup
tion. Most industries, however,
made better showings than during
Christmas week.
The aggregate dollar volume of
retail trade continued moderately
higher than a year ago, although
the usual post-holiday slump was
underway in roost sections.

merchandise at reduced prices

Decline Forecast
The magazine Sales Management
forecast a decline in retail sales
volume during the first quarter,
compared with the abnormally high
level of consumer spending a year
ago.
Things got off to an encouraging
start on the New York stock ex
change. Trading was a bit on the
quiet side but prices moved ahead,
albeit the advances were small.
On the less encouraging side of
the ledger were the troubles of the
steel industry.
Scrap shortages became more
serious and the labor dispute was
postponed not settled.
U. S. Steel Cprporation closed
five open hearth steel furnaces in
the Pittsburgh district for lack of
scrap metal. Three other furnaces
were shut down in Gary, Ind. Work

Consideration
Of New Dam
Federal Power Board
Urged To Reconsider
Deschutes River Plan
PORTLAND I The state of
Oregon will ask the Federal Power
Commission to reconsider licens
ing construction of a power dam
on the Deschutes River.
Should the Power Commission
deny this request for a rehearing,
the state will file a petition for
review with the U.S. Court of Ap
peals. Arthur Higgs, assistant state
attorney general, told that to dam
opponents here Friday.
The commission recently author
ized Portland General Eelectric
Co., to build Pelton Dam on the
Deschutes in Central Oregon.
Sportsmen, fish interests and
other groups have opposed the dam
on the ground that it would reduce
or eliminate salmon runs.
But PGE and -the power com
mission contend that, if anything.
fish runs will be increased by -the
dam's related hatchery projects.
Orison Will Enttr
Higgs said Oregon would enter,
if invited, the case of the State
of Washington against the FPC
license for dams on the
Cowlitz River. A similar condition
exists there. Some interests have
opposed hydroelectric develop
ment authorized by the FPC.
Delegates at Friday's meeting
included representatives from the
Oregon State Grange, the State
CIO, the State Fish Commission,
the State Game Commission, the
Izaak Walton League the Colum
bia River Salmon and Tuna Fish
eries Association and the U. S.
Fish and Wildlife Service.
Delegates were told thev should
demand that the governors of the
seven western states abide by the

compact, speakers said, set aside
the "Cowlitz and Deschutes and
other Lower Columbia tributaries

Oregon Law Suit
Record Reading
Draws Criticism
WASHINGTON I Reading the
record can consume a big chunk
of judicial time, Associate Justice
Robert H. Jackson of the Supreme
Court points out.
As a matter of fact, Justice
Jackson observed Friday, careful
perusal of the record in a govern
ment suit against the Oregon State
Medical Society might take half
a year.
The record covers 10 volumes
and some 8,000 pages. It cost
$22,108 for the government to print
it.
The record Is of a trial before
U. S. District Judge Claude Mc
which the government lost a suit
against the Medical Society. The
government argued during the five
month trial that the Society's med
ical and hospital insurance plan
violated anti trust laws.
Stanley M. Silverberg, special
assistant to the Attorney General,
told the court it would have to
read that record to get the facts
straight.
"If this court has to do that,"
remarked Justice Jackson, "it
might
s well recess until next
June, hold up all other cases, and
give all Its Ume to this one case."
Silverberg replied that '"con
gress has said review of such cases
rests with this court" and argued
that "until Congress changes the
law, you have no alternative.1

Captain Jubilant Over
Rescue Of His Vessel
LONDON (AP) The crippled Flying Enterprise
started under tow toward Falmouth Harbor at a tedious
three knots Saturday. Her skipper, Capt. Kurt Carlsen,
who refused stubbornly to abandon his wallowing ship in
the face of a wild storm, was jubilant and confident that
he is going to win his Ion?; fight against the sea.
The commander ot the U.S. de
stroyer Willard Keith, which ar
rived to watch over the stricken
American freighter and her dough
ty captain, reported: "The tow is
riding smoothly."
Capt. Carlsen's nine-day ordeal
nearly seven of them alone in a
darkened and sadly listing ship
appeared over, unless the barrel
thick towing hawser breaks or the
swelling seas tip the vessel over.
For the first time since the hur
ricane cracked the Flying Enter
prise across the middle and left
her helpless some 300 miles off
England's southern tip on Dec. 28,
the weather was reported "calm
and the visibility is good."
Snaking the helpless Enterprise
to port is the powerful sea-going
tug Turmoil, which managed aft
er 30 hours ot struggle to secure a
towline to the bow of the freighter.
On the deck of the Enterprise
tilting at a perilous 70 to 80 de
greesthe stubborn, Danish-born
skipper still stands, joined now by
the Turmoil's First Mate Kenneth
Dancy,- watching the groaning
hawser ease his ship along.
Take About 4 Days
"If the weather continues." said
the Keith's captain, "It will take
about four days" to bring the Fly
ing Enterprise into Falmouth. "If
this weather continues, the situa
tion will be in hand. Both Carlsen
and Captain Dan Parker of the
tug (Turmoil) firmly believe so
too."
The hearts of seamen the world
over and many a landlubber, too
also were on the Enterprise,
wishing the 37-year old captain
well. Old sailors in England, who
hailed Carlsen's devotion to duty
as being in the highest tradition
of the sea, planned to welcome the
skipper when he comes ashore.
Carlsen besan his lonely vigil a
week ago, defying the heaviest At
lantic storm in SO yean. He or
dered his 40 crewmen and 10 pas
sengers to jump overboard in pairs
when the ship's hull cracked and
the helpless Enterprise rolled
drunkenly in a vicious gale. One
seaman died In the plunge but his
body was recovered. All others
were picked up by nearby ships.
Charles Plummer
Sued For Injury
A physical damage suit totaling
$76,005.68 was filed in Circuit Court
Friday against Charles Plummer
of Roseburg.
The suit resulted from an auto
accident Sept. 2, 1951, in which
passenger Donald Harlin alleges
he suffered bodily injury which he
claims will impair him pcrmantly.
Being a minor, the suit was
filed by Edna Lorraine 'as his
guardian ad litem.
The suit asks $75,000 general
damage and $1,005.68 special dam
ages. According to the complaint, the
accident occured on highway 99 be
tween Winston and Roseburg while
Plummer was reportedly driving
the auto in which Hartin was a
passenger. The complaint states
Plummer's car passed another car
while driving toward Roseburg and
rammed into the rear of a panel
trtirlr ahaa,!. The rnmnlaint enn-
I linues, the car driven by Plummer
went out of control and rolled over.
The complaint, charging negli
gence states that Harlin suffered
bruises, contusions and lacera
tions of the head and body, blad
der damage and infra-pelvic cen
tral fracture dislocation of the
lrieht hin. As a result the 19-ycar-
old youth's earning capacity will
be permanently impairea, accoru-
lng to tne complaint.

West Demands
Nominee Lacking
Strings Attached
WASHINGTON IB A strong
western demand for a Republican
presidential nominee "who has no
strings attached" was hailed Sat
urday by backers of Senator 1 alt
(R-Ohio) and General Dwight D.
Elsenhower as a boost for their
candidates.
State chairmen from IS Mid
western and Rocky Mountain
states, meeting in Chicago ap
proved a resolution Friday which
said:
. . "We advocate a situation which
will make it possible for the vot
ers to support a candidate whose
hands are not tied and who has no
airings attached, who will wage
war without wavering against the
gigantic pyramid of unholy power
which has been erected on the
banks of the Potomac."
Interpret As Plug
Taft backers immediately inter
preted this aa a plug for their can
didate. Taft has been vigorous in
his denunciation of the Truman ad
ministration's handling of domes
tic and foreign affaira and has at
tacked the centralization of pow
ers in Washington.
The supporters of Taft, actively
seeking the GOP nomination, said
they regarded the resolution of the
stale chairmen aa striking at ef
forts of some Republicans to get
their party's nomination for Gen.
Eisenhower.
Political critics have contended
Eisenhower would be bound to sup
port most of the Truman adminis
tration foreign policies and thus
in that field might be regarded
u having some strings attached.
However, Senator Lodge (R
Mass) has said Eisenhower is criti
cal of many of the foreign policy
moves made by President Tru
man and would outline entirely dif
ferent methods of dealing with oth
er nations. Further, Senator Duff
(R-I'a),. who formally opened a
Washington "Ike for President"
headquarters just before Christ
mas, has said Eisenhower would
be "unencumbered by promises"
that might he made by other candi
dates in a "purely professional
setup."

Investigation Begun
In Attempt To Snort
Nation's Racketeers
WASHINGTON I Federal
agents prowled through the sinis
ter narcotics underworld Saturday
seeking even bigger game than any
oi tne 500 suspected dope peddlers
already seized in a sweeping na
tionwide dragnet.
Narcotics Commissioner Harry
J. Anslinger said the roundup,
which started before dawn Friday
and continued around the clock, is
laying the groundwork for capture
of some of the nation'i biggest illi
cit drug dealers.
Grand Jury Investigates
A grand jury investigation al
ready under way will lead to cap
ture of some national racket kings
within three weeks, Enslinger predicted.-
f
He added he couldn't lay where
the jury is working because "if
we even mentioned, the name of
the city, some of the men who are
talking will be killed."
Meanwhile, the commissioner
gave credit for the biggest mop
up of dope peddlers ever staged
to undercover men who pose as il
licit dealers. They work their way
into the heart of the crime world,
risking their lives to put racket
eers behind ban.
About 100 federal agents and 200
government-paid informers are re
maining underground to continue
the cleanup, he aaid. Scores had
to give up their roles of danger and
intrigue to make the arrests and
appear in court with evidence.
Anslinger said illicit drug traf
fic has been dealt a crippling blow.
The drive is aimed especially at
suppliers of teen-age drug addicts.
