For Johless
Yets Sought
WASHINGTON. April 12-(P)-The
government acted today to
ward providing an extra $595,
890,000 in G. I. benefits for the
next three months, partly because
of ; Increased joblessness among
veterans.
A portion of the money would i
be used for unemployment pay
ments under the G. I. bill of rights.
Most of the rest would be for ed
ucational benefits under the same
law.
President Truman asked the ex
tra money In a letter to congres
sional leaders. The house appro
priations committee quickly ap
proved the fund, which would
supplement money already voted
for the fiscal year ending June 30.
The bill will come before the
house tomorrow for expected
prompt passage. It has not been ;
considered by the senate.
Mr. Truman said costs of unem
ployment benefits exceeded previ
ous estimates '"due to higher num
bers ; of veterans receiving these
benefits than had been expected."

Currant Fly
Still Dozing in
Test Cages
Two yellow currant fly emerg
ence cages on the C. E. Bradley
farm near Hubbard still hadn't
produced a single fly by Monday,
April 11.
The yellow currant, fly is the
worst insect pest of gooseberry and
currant growers. It causes wormy
gooseberries and worthless fruit.
Bradley is checking these cages
each day in order to help goose
berry growers time their sprays.
When he finds the first fly, grow
ers will apply lead arsenate sprays
to kill the flies before they lay
eggs under the skin of the berries.
County extension agent D. L.
Rasmussen feels that some goose -bery
growers may get impatient
about waiting for flies to emerge
under the test cages. For those
growers who believe ttheir fields
are earlier than the average, he
suggests a thorough cover spray
containing three or four pounds of
lead arsenate added to an 8-8-100
Bordeaux mixture. The Bordeaux
mixture controls leaf spot fungus
at the same time the lead arsen
ate kills the flies.

Courthouse
Parking Bill
Introduced
A bill granting Marion and
other counties in Oregon the right
to regulate parking on courthouse
squares was introduced in the sen
ate Tuesday by the revision of
laws committee.
The bill was sparked by Marlon
county court. It recently found
itself powerless to regulate the
congested parking on the court
house grounds here. Salem Fire
Chief W. P. Roble had Informed
the court the congestion consti
tuted a serious hazard to fire
fighting equipment in case of a
fire.
Rules were suspended on the
bill and It was placed on second
reading. This means it will prob
ably come up for final senate con
sideration today or Thursday. If
passed it will go to the house
probably in time for last minute
consideration.
The bill would permit county
courts to regulate parking on the
courthouse grounds and would au
thorize them to prohibit it entirely
during certain hours. A penalty
for violators is provided.
Court Reduces
2 Assessments
On Property
Personal property assessments
were reduced for two Salem busi
ness men at hearings held before
Marion county court Tuesday.
Hearing on petition of W. H.
Townsend for a reduction was
continued to today.
John Schneider, owner of tho
Bluebird cafe, agreed to pay a
compromised tax of $8,855 for fix
tures and $850 for merchandise.
He said that, through an error, his
1947 personal property assessment
included some items not included
as personal property.
Mike JSteinbock, owner of the
former Leonard's Supper club, ac
cepted an assessment of $1,000 on
fixtures. An original assessment
of $5,580 was based on a false
return made out, he said, by a
public accountant.
District to Hire
School Lunch
Supervisor
(Story also on page 1)
Recommendation by Superinten
dent Frank B. Bennett that Salem
school district employ a school
lunch supervisor for the first time
next year was accepted by the
school, district directors Tuesday
night at a board meeting in the
public school administration building.
Bennett asserted that a full
time supervisor would benefit the
lunch program which is now op
erated in all but five of the dis
trict's schools, with some 2,000 pu
pils eating there dally. Meals
range from 20 to 25 cents.
The board discussed a Junior
Woman's dub proposal for use of
the old Lincoln school site for one
of several recreation program sites
suggested by the club. Board mem
bers indicated they might favor
the proposal if the city of Salem
backs the new recreational devel
opments suggested by the woman's
group.
Possibility that the school dis
trict teaching staff will be in
creased next year by as many as
11 appeared when the board au
thorized the superintendent to hire
an additional high school shop
teacher and investigate possible
need for a new Leslie junior highl
teacher. Earlier this spring the
board authorized nine additional
teachers.
Six elementary teachers were
hired for the coming year, all al
ready in the teaching profession.
They are Mrs. Kathleey Toycen
of 385 S. 16th st.. former Yakima,
Wash., teacher; Mrs. Rosella Brut
ka of Brooks, now teaching at
Canby; Bess O. Egan, Toppenish,
Wash.; Mrs. Clarice Akerson, Puy
allup, Wash.; Martha Matejcek,
Albany; Alma Kjersem, Parkrose
school in Portland.
Carrie Thoma was rehired as
teacher for the state tuberculosis
hospital school and leave of ab
sence for next year was approved
for Mary Bradley. Resignations
were accepted from Hiram Smith,
Salem high school; Anna Hansen,
Washington; Sigrun Harding, Rich
mond; Lorraine Kent, McKinley;
Alice Twombly, Garfield.
