State Court Says Cigaret Makers Face Liability TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (UPI) The Florida Supreme Court ruled Wednesday that cigarette manu facturers can be held liable for injuries or death resulting from use of their products. The opinion was given In a 5250,000 damage suit filed against the American Tobacco Co. by the widow of a man who died from lunj; cancer. The widow, Mrs. Edwin Green Sr., claimed her husband's fatal disease was caused by the firm's cigarettes.

Schools Practicing 'Double Shift' Face Reduction In State Recognition Status SALEM (UPI) The State Board of Education decided Wed nesday to withhold its, "fully standard" recognition from schools which hold double - shift classes. Double-shifting is the practice of sending half the students to class in the morning and the other half in the afternoon. ' Dr. Leon P. Minear, superin tendent of public instruction, said double-shifting because of over crowded classrooms has been more a problem in elementary schools than it has in high schools. But there are Indications from several communities that they are nianninff such a nermanent plan," Dr. Minear said. "It will cheat unnecessarily the youngsters in these districts." The board also ordered schools to provide a program of daily physical education for students in all 12 years of public school edu cation. High school students now are required to take only two years. Principal Loiet Cat Willard C. McKinny, Klamath Falls High School principal, lost his battle to have his teaching certificate restored. The board unanimously supported Minear in his earlier revocation of the certifi cate and refqsed McKinny's ap plication for a certificate for next year. The decision has the effect of removing McKinny from his job. Minear revoked the certificate several weeks ago on the basis that the principal knowingly made a false statement in his original application. Specifically, he was accused of failing to show that he pleaded guilty to a morals charge while a Minnesota school principal in 1959. About 20 witnesses appeared on his behalf Wednesday, but a spokesman for the board said an other 40 or 50 telegrams were received, "mostly negative." In other action, the board grant ed $25,000 for summer education programs for migrants. The classes will be conducted by the Ontario, Hood River, Woodburn, St. Paul and Monmouth-Independence school districts.

In the comparable peri od a year earlier exports totaled 453 million bushels. The Department said the sub stantial reduction resulted from smaller shipments to practically ; every country in the western '. hemisphere, Europe and Africa. The largest cut to the western hemisphere was made to Yene-1 zuela. j In Europe, which had formerly been the main overseas wheat market of the United States, : most of the reduction was made j in shipments to the usually large buyers. These included West Ger-1 many, Italy, and the Netherlands ; in the common market: Poland, Portugal, Spain, the United King-1 do m, and Yugoslavia. j Considerably less wheat went . to Algeria, Morocco and Tunisia I during July-March, 1962-63, than during the same months a year ! earlier. The Department said larger shipments to India, Korea ! and Pakistan more than offset the 17-million bushel loss to Tur-1 key and minor reduction to other Asian countries. . ' j The drop in' U. S. exports ties in with the general drop in world : trade in wheat. This lessening of world wheat trade stems from the fact that big crops were grown in 1962 in western Europe, parts of Asia and Africa. Some importing countries cut down their buying in relation to their stepup in production. U. S. wheat exports in March totaled '55 million bushels. So far, this is the largest amount export ed in any month during fiscal 1963. The monthly average of the eight previous months was less than 40 million buslyls.
