Apprenticeship
Council Vetoes
ining Irian
The state apprenticeship coun
cil turned down an on-the-job
training program proposed by Pa
cific Telephone and Telegraph
company in a Salem meeting Mon
day, automatically cutting off
about 450 Oregon company trainee
veterans from further federal sub
istance payments.
A council member, following the
session at the state library, said
the company plan fell short of
state apprenticeship standards, and
it "seemed impossible" to reach
agreement. He said the proposal
has been under negotiation for
about two years and finally "came
to a head" in Monday's meeting.
The differences between the
company and council over the
terms of the proposal were not ex
plained. The council spokesman explain
ed that the company originally
employed the trainees under a plan
approved by veterans administra
tion In Washington, D. C.
Ha said the state council "in
herited" administration of the pro
gram from the VA about two years
ago, and must approve the plan
before further subsistance checks
will be Issued to the company
trainees.
Earlier in the session, five mem
bers of Salem's apprenticeship
council received 'merit awards for
their outstanding local services.
The awards were presented by

commissioner and director of the
apprenticeship council. Those hon

western in the Rose Bowl New
Year's day.
That was the announcement
from the office of Pacific Coast
conference Commissioner Victor O.
Schmidt, following the casting of
ballots by faculty representatives
of schools in the PCC and the Big
Nine from which comes North
western.
It was fairly certain that North
western would: get the bowl nod
in the Big Nine after plainly es
tablishing itself as second best club
in the circuit. Title-holding Mich
igan was prevented from return
ing to Pasadena for a second
straight year by a recently install
ed ruling.
Divided Choice
But in the Coast conference it
was anybody's! guess up to an
nouncement of the vote as to
whether Lynn Waldorf s Bears or
the Oregon Webfoots would get the
coveted job of representing the
PCC in the January 1st classic.
Schmidt did not reveal how many
of the ten ballots California re
ceived but it was plain that sever
al schools deliberated to great
lengths over their choice since
some votes were not received by
Schmidt until late Monday morn
ing. The earliest was in the com
missioner's office Sunday noon.
Docks Unhappy
Disappointment was voiced in
Oregon circles when word of the
vote outcome was received. Many
Duck supporters thought that the
Webfoots stood a very good chance
of getting the bid: after beating
Oregon State Saturday, 10-0, while
California was barely getting over
Stanford, 7-0. j
California went through an un
beaten season. Its 10 wins includ
ing six In conference play.
Oregon captured seven circuit
games, its only loss being a non
conference mix with Michigan
early in the season.;

ment will be in California's fifth
trip to the Rose Bowl. The Bears
last were there in 1938 when they
beat Alabama, 13-0.

Court Upholds
Second Portion
Of TortaF Act
By Donald Sanders
WASHINGTON, Nov. 22-P)-The
Supreme Court upheld today
the validity of a second major
portion of the portal-to-portal pay
act the so-called "good faith"
section.
The act, passed in May, 1947,
sharply restricted the rights of
workers to claim portal-to-portal
pay for such activities as traveling
from factory gates to work bench,
washing up, sharpening tools and
so on. I
In other cases today, the court:
1. Held that mailing of drugs
and labels of instructions for their
use in separata packages at dif
ferent times is not an escape from
the food and drug act's prohibition
against misbranding.
2. Agreed to pass upon' a ruling
by the Federal district court at
Los Angeles that a new collective
bargaining agreement could not
change seniority rights of three
veterans in their peace-time jobs.
The Los Angeles court had held
that the veterans, James L. Camp
bell. MitcheU B. Joplin and Mal
colm E. KirkJ were entitled to
seniority as they enjoyed it -when
they entered the army.

D street a through street from
Capitol street east.
Explaining possible legal action
to force long-promised crossing
repairs, City Attorney Chris Kow
itz advised a new city ordinance
to provide penalty against rail
roads operating without a fran
chise, then legislation to remove
or suspend franchises now held by
railroads for their lines through
Salem.
Penalty BiU Ordered
Action affecting the Southern
Pacific mainline would have to be
submitted to the state public uti
lities commission, Kowitz said at
the city hall meeting last night
Upon motion by Alderman Albert
H. Gille, the council instructed
Kowitz to bring in the penalty
bill at the December 13 meeting.
City Manager J. L. Franzen said
both SP and Oregon Electric had
drawn up repair programs this
year but little of the work had
been done. He declared that city
officials had gone about as far as
they could to encourage the rail
road work projects.
Businessmen Appeal
A South Salem businessmen's
delegation -appeared before the
council to ask that two-way traf
fic 'be restored on Miller street
where a one-way plan was ef
fected last year when the Owens
street access to South River road
was improved. These men in
cluding Grant Kightlinger, Roy
Adsitt, H. A. Harrington and
Clayton Jones told aldermen
they felt traffic would be expe
dited by reopening the street
completely.
They asserted that a remon
strance petition by 24 residents
seeking to make Miller street
dead-end at the river road would
serve to benefit only the cottage
property of Thomas K. Earl at
Miller street and South River
road. Earl and S. M. Earl de
fen d e d the remonstrance on
grounds that heavier traffic would
be a hazard because vision at the
corner is limited by an embank
ment. Light S arrested
Alderman Howard Maple back
ed the reopening proposal and
gave the motion to accomplish it,
on the stipulation that a stop sign
be installed at the end of Miller
street (at South River road). Al
derman Daniel J. Fry was the
only dissenter, explaining he felt
traffic would benefit by the open
ing only if a traffic light were in
stalled at Owens street.
The D street action makes it a
through street from Capitol to
east city limits, with all intersect
ing streets to be marked with stop
signs. In a similar resolution
passed by the council. Mission
street was made through street at
25th street, with stop signs to be
placed on 25th at both approaches
to Mission.
Te Remove Wall
In another traffic consideration,
the council learned by letter from
the Pacific Mutual Life Insurance
Co., which is developing a retail
center on North Capitol street,
that its lease with Southern Paci
fic for building a three-foot re
taining wall on SP right-of-way
between the insurance property
and the railroad tracks recognizes
the city's prior option on the
right-of-way. The wall will be re
moved ,the insurance firm stated,
if the city decides to build a street
paralleling the tracks.

Lumber Prices
Decline in NW
A Portland lumber Industry
Monday pointed out that retail
lumber prices in Oregon and
Washington have dropped off from
$7.50 to $13 per thousand board
feet during the past few weeks.
The industrialist, who wished to
remain unnamed, said the current
longshoremen's strike and conse
quent curtailment in lumber ship
ments is materially responsible for
the price drop on certain grades.
He said, however, that lumber
prices will probably start on the
upgrade after the first of the year
when building along the coast re
sumes a normal pace.

City Manager J. L. Franzen, to

Russia Attacks
U.N. Program
For Palestine
By Francis W. Carpenter
PARIS, Nov. 22 -JP) Russia at
tacked the Bernadotte plan today
as a scheme to keep the Arabs .of
Palestine and Trans - Jordan un
der the domination of British and
American oil interests.
Soviet Delegate Semen K. Tsar
apkin told the 68-member politi
cal committee of the United Na
tions assembly that Russia believ
ed the proposals of Count Folke
Bernadotte. slain U. N. mediator,
were "prepared in the British for
eign office."
Tsarapkin lashed out bitterly
at the United States and Britain
for the role they have played in
Palestine. He declared the British
American policy had made a fiasco
out of mediation attempts.
Polish Delegate Oscar Lange
joined in the attack. Referring to
the United States and Britain, he
said:
"Defense of an old and now
crumbling empire, on the one
hand, and the expansionist drive
toward the establishment of a new
empire, on the other, are respon
sible for the present situation in
Palestine."
Britain is sponsoring the plan.
U. S. Delegate Philip C. Jessup
endorsed some parts of the report
last week, but said the United
States could not agree to any re
duction of territory given Israel
under the partition plan of Nov.
29, 1947, without Israel's consent.
The United States is expected
to speak more fully on the Pales
tine question within the next few
days, after President Truman and
Secretary of State Marshall fin

With Marshall
By John M. Hichtower
WASHINGTON, Nov. 22-V
President Truman received a "very
informative" report from Secre
tary of State Marshall today on
the whole field of American for
eign relations. Including the crit
ical situation in China.
Word of the discussion between
the two men in the president's
White House office came from
Press Secretary Charles G. Ross.
Ross declined to reveal whether
any decisions were made on China
or any other foreign policy issue.
He also gave a no comment re
sponse to inquiries as to whether
the talk had determined whether
Marshall would remain as secre
tary of state.
Ross told reporters that their
discussion ranged over the whole
field of foreign relations. He de
scribed Marshall's report as "very
informative": and said the secre
tary may see the president again
tomorrow.

that the outcome of the presiden

convention.
Green pledged the organization
to make repeal of the Taft-Hartley
act its first goal.
"It Is the dawn of a hew day,
a new experience, a new opportun
ity for the AFL," Green said after
delegates gave him a rousing dem
onstration. He has been president
since the death of Samuel Gom
pers In December, 1924.
"We are determined to exercise
good judgment, to proceed judical
ly, to act together not as an or
ganization but as citizens of the
UJS.A." Green said. His remarks
indicated the AFL's sober approach
to what it thinks will be its in
creasing role as a result of Presi

Secretary - Treasurer George
Meany and the IS vice presidents
on the executive council also were
re-elected without opposition.
The convention adopted a com

repeal of the Taft7HartIey act and
restoration of the Wagner Labor
Relations act. From these, the AFL
would favor building amendments
based on IS years experience un
der both labor laws.
In the discussion of legislation,
Charles J. MacGowan, head of the
boilermakers, said "labor is not
contemplating a wave of strikes."
Delegates applauded when Mac
Gowan said "instead of agitating
for a general fourth-round of wage
increases, the entire citizenry
should concentrate on achieving a
rollback of prices to defeat the in
flationary spiral and to stabilize
our economy."
