Irishman Boastful,
Silent as Tug-of-War
WATERLOO, Ore, Dec 12
(JP)- The two opponents in to
morrow's great tug-of-war met
for the first time today, and
eyed each other with scorn.
They met in the Waterloo
blacksmith shop where one con
testant was getting shoes with
,i inch caurks. He is Baldy, a
1,900-pound logging horse with
powerful shoulders and hoofs
like dinner plates.
' "He doesn't have a chance,
scoffed Chester Fitzwater, the
225-pound redhead who is the
other contestant. "Ill win eas
ily." ' The horse maintained a stra
tegic silence, but owner R. W.
Wallace said that the animal
The ancient adage that politics
makes .strange bedfellows has few
proofs as singular as the declar
ation of Henry A. Wallace that if
be had to choose between Harry
Truman for president and Rob
ert A. Taft he would vote for Taft.
One has to wash and polish his
glasses to make sure he has read
the item correctly. Wallace seems
to have come full circle to have
deviated so far leftward that he
Is around at the right At least
he has reached a point in isola
tion where he finds himself com
fortable with Taft.
Wallace is obsessed with the
Idea that the foreign policy of the
administration leads to war with
Russia. Either from dread of war
or sympathy with Russia he lash
es out against the Truman
Byrnes - Marshall direction of
foreign affairs. Despite the sub
stitution of the more moderate
plan for European recovery in
place of the Truman doctrine,
Wallace keeps veering r.ny, un
til now he seems to espouse the
Idea of a new third party. More
and more his associations and his
supporters belong to the extreme
left wing. t
Political history offers little
comfort to Wallace in his perigri
nations. Usually those who fly off
the main wheel at a sharp tan
cent never get back on. Martin
Van Buren, Horace Greeley, Theo
dore Roosevelt, Robert LaFollette,
sr., failed when they sheered off
in independency. Wallace seems
destined for the same fate, and
s he progresses In his extremity
(and as the "cold war" continues)
Tbis threat to the administration
will grow less. Even Senator Taft
will hardly welcome this recruit
to his banner. -
Belton Ponders
Treasurer Bid
""State" Sen. Howard Belton of
Canby said In Salem Friday he
would decide early in January
whether he will be a candidate
for state treasurer at the repub
lican primary election next May.
"I have received considerable
encouragement from various sec
tions of the state," Belton said,
"but I want to do a little more
scouting around before I arrive
at , a definite decision." Belton
also has been mentioned as a pos
sible candidate for governor but
Jie iriiicated the state treasurer's
office would be preferable.
Belton has served several terms
in the state senate and was presi
dent of that body at the 1945 leg
islature.!' 17 Burn to Death in

Democrats Present
Price-Control Plan
WASHINGTON, Dec. J2-(,f)-Secretary of Labor Schwellenbach
today outlined to congresaT specific proposals for price ceilings and
roll backs as republicans debated whether or not to place their own
anti-inflation bill before the house Monday on a "take it or leave
it" basis. '
Schwellenbach sent the proposed price control legislation to the
house banking committee witn a
note saying he will submit a wage
control bill shortly.
But Chairman Wolcott (It
Mich) told reporters definitely
there will be no action at the spe
cial session on the Schwellenbach
bill, or the one drafted, by Secre
tary of Commerce Harriman ask
ing priority and allocation auth
ority. Schwellenbach said price con
trols would be limited to those
commodities that: basically affect
the cost of living or agricultural
and industrial production, and
those "essential to effectuation of
the foreign policy of the United
States."
The labor secretary declared a
maximum price ceiling should be
applied only if the commodity is
found to be in short supply, and
its price has risen unreasonably
beyond that prevailing in June,
1947. Under his proposals, price
ceilings could not be lower than
the highest price prevailing be
tween June 11 and June 18, 1947,
except in cases where they have
been decreased costs or market
declines.

ning at a hearing on proposals to
change some street and road
names outside Salem Garden
road beyond the city limits will
be changed to Market street, the
road to Roberts will be changed
to South River road if not already
accomplished, the court has no ju
risdiction over Park lane due to
its private ownership, and the
court plans no further name chan
ges unless requested by adjacent
property owners who also sug
gest a new title.
The Garden road change in
volves the distance from city lim
its to Swegle school.
Court members said they
thought Roberts road south of the
city, had been officially named
South River road some years ago.
A search of records was ordered,
with the intent that the altera

yet been.

PORTLAND. Ore., Dec. 12-7P)
-A major Portland department
store was robbed of about $17,000
in cash today, and minutes later
police converged to arrest a flee

Detective Chief James Purcell
said the man admitted partici
pating in two previous depart
ment store robberies which fol
lowed the same pattern.
The gunman entered the Olds,
Wortman & King department
store late this afternoon, and or
dered cashier Ruby Tunnell to
hand over a money bag, ready for
an armored car service to carry to
the bank.
A call to police sent a broadcast
over the police radio system, and
instantly all cars converged on
the downtown area. Traffic pa
trolmen leaped from a prowl car
to stop a man running down the
street away from the store.
Ordered to halt, he surrendered
a gun and the department store
money bag filled with cash.

by nine home owners who do not
desire that it be made a. county
road and wish to keep their name.
The court decided it had no juris
diction to make a change.
A second delegation, compris
ing Mrs. Alice Forgard. Mrs. Eth
el LaRue and Mrs. Walter Fisher,
brought a petition with 66 name

change of name there. The court
agreed that the long - standing

suggestions offered for changing

will consider proposals that ad

Second
Walkout
For Union
WASHINGTON, Dec. 12 - (yP) -
John L. Lewis marched his 600,
000 United Mine Workers out of
the AFL for the second time to
day, in a bitter row stemming
from his refusal to sign a non
communist affidavit.
Lewis notified AFL President
William Green of the new split
with this roughly scrawled note:
"Green, AFL We disaffiliate.
1247."
He had assailed AFL leaders as
"intelligently fat and stately
asses" because they decided to
comply with the Taft-Hartley act
requiring union officials to swear
they are not communists.
They did this so their unions
could have access to the national
labor relations board, with its fa
cilities for selecting collective bar
gaining agents, etc. Lewis, though
he is no communist, would have
nothing to do with the act.
So that Lewis defiance would
not deprive AFL unions of access
to the NLRB, the federation
changed its constitution in such
a way that the 15-man executive
' . l I 1 v
council, oi wmcn jewis was a
member, was removed from the
roster of federation "officers."
Lewis then withdrew from the
council.
This week the 67-year-old
U.M.W. president called his 30
man executive council into a ses
sion which culminated in tonight's
announcement.

ilar charge against Mr. and Mrs.
John S. Dunlavy of the Brook
nook restaurant at Brooks, who

leased under $500 bail each.
The jury returned only the two
secret indictments.
Pauley Defends
Speculation
WASHINGTON, Dec. 12 -(JP)
Edwin W. Pauley, defending his
grain market speculations as "the
good old American way," testi
fied today that he "did rather
well" in trading this year but
not through information gained
as a government official.
Summoned to Capitol Hill on
the heels of charges that admin
istration "insiders" have pro
fiteered in foodstuffs specula
tion, Pauley asserted he has rid
himself of nine-tenths of his
holdings in commodities since
September 3 when he became spe
cial assistant to the Secretary of
the Army Royall.
His liquidation operations were
carried out in accordance with
an agreement with Royall, he told
the senate appropriations commit
tee. As a result, he said, he is
"currently more than $100,000
worse off than if I had retained
the grain."
ONLY MAKE BELIEVE
ALBANY, N.V Dec. 12JP
Henry A. Wallace asserted to
night he was only indulging in a
game of "make believe" when he
said he would vote for republican

sident Truman if the 1948 ejec
tion -were limited to those two.

Reds Call Off
General Strike
In Rome Area
- ROME, Saturday, Dec. lS-fvP)-Rome's
4.8-hour general strike
the latest battle In the left's "win
ter offensive' against Premier
Alcide De Gasperi's Christian de
mocratic government ended at
midnight with both sides loudly
claiming victory. '
A secretly printed 'extra edition
of the Christian democratic par
ty's newspaper II Pololo, on the
streets just at 12 o'clock, said in
big black headlines, "Strike
Fails!"
But the communist - controlled
chamber of labor of Rome prov
ince, which ordered 500,000 work
ers out Wednesday night to back
up its demands for sweeping win
ter unemployment relief, asserted
in calling them back that the gov
ernment had yielded all along the
line.
The chamber's vote to end the
strike, ratified later by assem
bled delegations from individual
unions, came last night after
thousands of Romans had gone
back to work under the protection
of club-swinging police.
The largest police force assem
bled in Rome in recent times
numbering 67.000 men swung
their clubs throughout the city
yesterday.
By nightfall, a survey of some
of the principal streets in down
town Rome showed! one out of
three business places again were
open, and in some streets half the
establishments were open to cus
tomers after a virtual commercial
paralysis yesterday.

Hop Growers Favor Investigation, Hearings
Looking to New Hop Marketing Agreement
By LiUie L. Madsen
Parm Editor, The Statesman
More than 100 hop growers in
the Salem area went on record
Friday at a meeting held ct the
Salem Chamber of Commerce
rooms, as favoring further inves
tigation and holding hearings on
a proposed new hop marketing
agreement. Findings will be
worked into a final marketing act
and presented to the growers
from whom it will need a two
thirds favorable vote to become
effective.
Principal investigations will be
made by a committee which the
group empowered the chairman to
appoint The committee will at
tend district hop meetings prior
to the formal hearings to discuss
the suggestions for the agreement.
The Friday gathering was a gen
eral hop growers' meeting spon

Big 3 Rebel
At Molotov's
NameCalling
LONDON, Dec. 12 -(A)- A sav
age Russian attack against the
United States, Britain and France
tonight reduced Big Four rela
tions to the lowest point since
the war and threatened an al
most immediate breakup of the
London session of the foreign
ministers conference.
The most acrimonious foreign
ministers meeting ever held end
ed abruptly, official observers
said, when British Foreign Sec
retary Bevin termed Soviet For
eign Minister Molotov's attack on
allied policies in Germany "in
sults and abuse." U. S. Secretary
of State Marshall declared the at
tack made it "difficult to inspire
respect for the dignity of the
Soviet Union."
Conference sources said Molo
tov, in an hour-long attack, ac
cused the western powers of mak
ing "enormous profits" out of
Germany through "hidden repa
rations," and trying to "perpet
uate the division of Germany" to
combat the "democratic countries
of Europe."
The unexpected verbal assault
made it clear that the "cold war"
for Europe would be fought out
on the basis of the Marshall plan
and the so-called "Molotov plan."
A bridge between the two
through Big Four agreements on
Germany appeared completely
impossible following the meet
ing's developments. There were
indications that Molotov's switch
irom conciliation to an uncom
promising offensive had come at
the direction of the Kremlin.
Soviet sources indicated Molo
tov had torn up a speech pre
pared for use-yesterday and made
a-completely new one.
Truman Plans
4 Years of Aid
WASHINGTON. Dec. 12 - -
President Truman wants congress
to underwrite western Europe's
recovery program for at least four
years, Alf M. Landon said today
after talking with Mr. Truman at
the White House.
This view conflicts with that of
Senator Taft (R-Ohio) and sev
eral other republican leaders who
want aid granted on a year-to-
year basis.
Landon, former governor of
Kansas and republican presiden
tial nominee in 1936, told report
ers Mr. Truman had authorized
him to relay the presidential wish
for a four-year guarantee of aid
to Europe.
Expressing agreement with the
president, Landon said: "I told
him these people ought to know
what they can count on."
'Yankee Imperialism'

PANAMA, Panama, Dec. Vl-(JP)
Twenty-five persons were report
ed to have been injured today in
a street battle between police and
university students who protested
a new agreement to lease canal
defense bases to the United States.
Later a crowd gathered oppo
site Santa Ana Plaza and police
strove to prevent a mass meeting.
7any of the demonstrators were
shouting "Down with Yankee im
perialism." Advisory committee of the hop
association, serving as secretary
for the meeting. E. L. Markell,
secretary-manager of the hop as
sociation, and Paul T. Rowel I, as
sociate manager, were present to
give assistance.
Mr. Rowell reporting on the
hop supply and market conditions,
said that at present "we are not
far from what we call a balanced
situation in the- hop business."
However, any surplus from new
crops could throw off the balance,
he added. Because of an expected
grain shortage, brewers had filled
up their pipe lines and the mar
ket, as could be expected, was
quite dull. He urged that growers
do not attempt to force sale of
hops under the existing conditions
as they could only 'do so to their
own disadvantage.
Mr. Markell referred to the for
mer marketing agreement act as
"unsatisfactory but that it did ac
complish a lot in stabilizing the
market and also took a lot of

Governors Told to Look
Eastward for New Trade
PORTLAND, Dec. 12 -(') -The far west has been called upon
to fill th role of good neighbor and business friend of the far
east, Govf Earl Warren told the western conference of governor
here tonight.
"There is a great renaissance in the Pacific and beyond it
in the far east." he said before a dinner gathering hosted by tha
Portland Chamber of Commerce. I
Millions, he declared, are look
ing for new friends, and "instinc
tively to the United States."
"They look to us on the rim
of the Pacific basin. We must
look to them sympathetically.
They can be not only our neigh
bors and friends, they can be
our best customers and we theirs."
The eleven western states of
the United States, Warren said,
constitute an economic unit more
nearly self-sufficient than any
other geographical area in the
nation.
The governors avoided any
mention of politics in their ses
sions, but outside the doors a top
Oregon official disclosed plans
of Oregon republicans to capture
Oregon's 12 to 15 national con
vention votes for Warren.
The official, declining to be
quoted, said he was sure Warren
could win in Oregon, even if
opposed by Sen. Robert A. Taft
and Gov. Thomas Dewey, neither
of whom has filed for the May
primaries in this state.

Both Mr. Rowell and Mr. Mar

agreed, should now be undertaken
from a preventative standpoint.
They reported that the state ex
periment station was working on
the development of disease resis

PORTLAND, Dec. 12-.P-Th
western forestry and conservatoa

"No funds are available unless
sales are made," the speech said.
Gov. Hall added that he endors
