In recent weeks I have taken some motor cruises to different sections and can report on them briefly. The -Willamette highway (Ore. 58) is in poor condition. The original surfacing was too light to carry the heavy traffic which has been using the road. Below Oak, Ridge the road is lei; not built to recent standards. About Meridian where the new Willam ette dam ii to go, relocation work is in progress. Across the summit, reconstruction work is going on from Odell lake toward Chemuit.

Herbert Barker, executive sec retary, said the council voted against decontrol at its Tuesday night meeting. Opinion among council mem bers, said Barker, is that "rent price will rise if controls are lifted. Decontrol now will do for rents what the lifting of? general price controls did for the cost of living." Salem city council will discuss the lifting of rent controls at a public hearing at city hall June 27.

I Their victim was Billy Guyton StovallJ 31, a white man and pipe plant employe described by neighbors as a good husband and father. The flogging of Stovall was the third; outbreak involving robed mobs in the( Birmingham area within a week. A woman was manhandled And forced: to watch a cross burning, and a restaurant operator made to watch a cross burning last Friday night. Both are whites. i Dr. E. P. Pruitt, hcd of the Ku Klux Klan in Alabama, flatly denied the klan had any part in the three incidents. J Stovall and his twci children, Jimmy, 10. and Elaine, 8. were at home at 1:30 last night when a robed figure knocked on the door. 1 ij Jimmy gavfc this account: "The man laid 'thisfis Stuart!

Then he grabbed my daddy and pullad him out the door." t Stovall returned at! 1:30 a.m. His wife said: he had been taken to a wooded area and struck 20 times with a i heavy leather belt.

The senate today added three amendments to President Tru man's labor bill and thereby made it look a little more like the Taft-Hartley act. Getting down' to action at lat, the senators approved all three proposals by voice votes, without any audible "noes." The three amendments, spon sored by a bi-partisan group, would do these things: 1. Make It Illegal for a union to refuse to bargain in good faith. The administration bill already contained a requirement that em ployers must bargain. 2. Guarantee freedom of speech in labor relation unless the speech in question contains threats or promises of benefit. S. Require both unions and com panies, if they want to take caes before the national labor rela tions board, to file annual finan cial reports. The Taft-Hartley ' law requires only unions to do this. Consideration of a foufT. amendment on non-communist oaths was deferred until tomor row. It was expected to pass like the others. After that the senate may start its big fight over how to deal with "na ional emer genry" strikes. In that connection. Senator Morse (R-Ore) in a two-hour speech today introduced a pro posal under which such strikes could be delayed by government seizure of plants unless con gress stepped in and said "no." But under Morse's proposal, even after seizure the only way the government could get an in junction against the workers would be for congress to author ize it in a particular cafe. Oueen Choice For Festival Due on Friday A queen for the Salem Cherry land festival will be chosen Friday night at the Elsinore theatre, un der auspices of the Salem Cherri ans.

Three small fiuut broke out in the area during one day early last week, they report. The charred ruins of dozens o plants and warehouses were grim evidence of the fury of the flames that "lit up the sky like a forest fire" but took no toll of life. Ambulances on duty took four persons to the hospital suffering from burns and shock. 5 The spectacular, four-alarm pre dawn blaze levelled two blocks.

Farmers Fear Pasture Lack For Slimmer A shortage of pastures, similar to last year's is being threatened again this year, farm market re leased are indicating. Low ranges in eastern Oregon and Washington are reported as drying rapidly. There is a heavy movement of livestock to the higher summer ranaes.

Harvesting is well under way in the southern p4rt of the hard win ter wheat be'.ti Some of the first wheat harvested is running a little high in moisture content, but oth erwise the quality is reported as good. The spring wheat crop In the northern Great Plains is mostly in good condition. Some reseeding was necessary because of heavy weed infestiations.
