t-The State man. Salem, Oregon, Sunday. Tanuary 22. 1930 City Council to Receive Plan for Compulsory Garbage Disposal Compulsory garbage disposal will be asked for Salem at a hear ing before the city council at 7:30 pjn. Monday in city hall. The move for a city-wide disposal plan is being sponsored by Sa lem Woman's club. Several representatives of the group will appear t the hearing. Unanimous backing of 37 clubs represented in the Salem Coun cil of Women's Organizations was gained for the plan at a recent meeting of that group. Complaints against present gar bp e disposal methods charge that refuse is littered in vacant lots and tint burning of garbage in private yards has caused unpleasant odors to oermeate entire neighborhoods. Mrs. Arthur Jones, who heads a Sr'am Woman's club committee which Initiated action on the plan, tiid at least four women have in dicated they will speak Monday ni"ht favoring the plan. Women's Clnb Fresident They include Mrs. George W. Ailing, president of the Woman's club, and a club member, Mrs. Dolores Braun: Mrs. Robert Hut cheons, president of the Salem Council of Women's Organizations; - and Mrs. Ralph Cooley, president of Women of Rotary. Several residents from Mill creek areas are expected to appear to protest dumping of garbage in io the creek, Mrs. Jones said. In addition, several other wom en's groups will be represented at the hearing. Including the DAR and the Rebekah lodge. 1 '. TK wimmilnr dlctxMuri erolect was adopted by the Woman's club as its part In a movement by the National federation of Women's Clubs to Improve living conditions in American cities. ZfHed la Gardens The plan was chosen because women have observed garbage be ing buried in gardens, burned In the open and lying about in con- vajncn tuat nu uu uie twvwa were thrown at them." Women also claim that uncollect ed garbage tends to draw rodents, and James C. Danielson, rodent control specialist of the U. S. pub lic health service who now is serving in Salem, has concurred In this opinion. A representative of Sanitary Service Company, Inc., of Salem has estimated that about 0,000 res idents have subscribed to regular refuse collection service. Women sponsoring the universal plan have pointed out that they are run asking luuiuiuuua vi a cuj service for the private service but merely an extension of collection facilities to force all residents to remove garbage. Black Ice May CHICAGO, Jan. 21-(r-ChIcago scientists think they may have found f- way to break winter's Crip, earlier tnan usual, on norm American rivers and lakes. Scientists at Armour research foundation of Illinois Institute of Technology, cooperating with the V..S. coast guard, looked into the problem and came up with this possibility: If a black coating of powder or liquid is spread on the surface of the Ice it would cause a greater absorption of the sun's heat than ordinary ice. This would force the fee to melt as early as February or March In the northern parts; of the U. S.

General Douglas MacArthur, the acting emperor of Japan, is on hit war to work. The sedan stops before a mod ern building fronting one or tne impartial palace moats. The gener al Jaekknlfe through the door, almost bounds up a small flleht of stairs, and with a crtsn salute to the guards disappears into the building. It has been exactly the same. except for the time, each day for over four years. It will be the same on January 28. the 70th birthday of Japan's benevolent conqueror, . j In the diverse affairs of the Japanese occupation, it has be come axiomatic now that as one wag put it "Everything chang es but MacArthur." To the American and Jaoanese bystanders who await his appear ance at headquarters, the general shows no signs of the creeping years. He Is the same erect stern Jawed energetic commander-in-chief. It requoires a closer look to note time in the whiteness of his face and the thinness of his nervous hands. i To his staff, MacArthur also Is the same. He is a hard - driving authoritarian, but a man who rives and commands fierce loyal ties. The inflexibility of his seven day work week alternately amaz es and confounds .the men obliged to match it MacArtfeurs 70th birthday therefore will preserve the out ward simplicity of the four others he has spent in Japan. It will be a regular work day,' intermingled with a quiet celebration at the MacArthur home in the United States embassy. The contrast with the flamboy ance of Premier Stalin's parallel birthday doubtless has not escap ed MacArthur. In a sense he re gards himself at war with the Kremlin boss for the remnants of Asia. Last January's general election in Japan, he once told a visitor, was a contest between MacAr thur and Stalin." MacArthur won that test as so far he has won Japan in a cease less conflict to preserve what he terms the "American beaennead in Asia." But on his birthday, the battle for Asia has become more critical, with elements of both per sonal triumph and defeat for the general. He has seen, not without private protest to visitors, the lava flow of red communism sweep across China until now it threatens the chain of island bases upon which he depends for an advance de'fense line. The tide of history has made MacArthur into the most com manding single figure opposing what he has called "predatory in ternational banditry' In Asia lust as he became the symbol of western resistance to the Japan ese during the war. The situation has an ironic par allel with 1942. He is still trying to convince the United States that. as he once told a guest Dur fron tier lies here" In Asia "where more than half the world's population Uves.

Hlfbtewer WASHINGTON, Jan. 21 State department officials decided today that Secretary Acheson's attack on Russian policy in China had found a sore spot in Soviet relations with the Chinese. That was the initial reaction here to Soviet Foreign Minister Vish insky's blast in Moscow early today when he accused Acheson of lying by having said that Russia Is taking over four areas of northern China. The state department aeennea to make an official comment on tht Vishinsky statement but Chairman Connally (D-Tex) of the senate foreign relations com mittee declared the Russian for eign minister had used language unfitted for courteous and states man like communications." "I am amazed," Connally said, "at the distempered and angry language of Foreign Minister Vish insky. Mr. Vishinsky does not talk like a foreign minister. . . . "He talks like he did when he was prosecuting and convicting victims of the purge in Russia years ago." Importance Attached It was not so much the angry tone of Vishinsky's reaction to the Acheson charge as it was the evi dence of the importance that Rus sia attache1 to the statement that impressed top state department of ficials, they said privately. The statement was handed out to foreign correspondents who were summoned to the Kremlin in the post midnight hours, rather than simply being printed in one of the Moscow newspapers or be ing distributed by the Tass agency, which is the routine way of han dling such things in Moscow. Current Visits State department experts said today that in addition to demon strating that the charge had hit home. Vishinsky's counter attack also had another possible signifi cance connected with the current visits of Chinese rM leaders to Moscow. The negotiations between the Chinese and the Russians are ex pected to result in a treaty of friendship, possibly some sort of alliance and also possibly an eco nomic agreement. In addition the belief here is that the talks may produce secret political agreements about which nothing may be known or a long time. The danger of the Acheson charge to the Russians in that sit uation, the experts believe, is that it has put the label of Russian im perialism on whatever agreements are announced to the extent that they may show an extension of Russian economic interests Into China.

Jan. 21 -UPi- Powdered asbestos Is used as an aid In a new and "very encourag ing" surgical techniaue for com batting one of the nrincinal forms of heart disease, a Cincinnati sur geon reported today. The operation Is designed to in crease the blood supoly to the diseased heart by virtually filue- ng the patient's healthy lun to his heart by means of an asbestos paste "painted" onto the surface of each. The paste is made by put ting powdered asbestos in a salt solution. Dr. B. N. Carter of the Univer sity of Cincinnati said the function or the asbestos was to serve as an irritant" that would cause nature to form; new tissue at the point of attachment and provide tiny blood channels between the lung and heart The operation Derformed on three patients so far is design ed to treat a condition known as coronary artery disease" where in the usual blood vessels supply ing the heart Itself with nourish ment have become hardened and narrowed. Dr. Carter said one of the na- tients, a 45-year-old butcher had given up his work because of his heart condition. He couldn't walk more than a block or two without experiencing the chest pain known as "angina pectoris" and had to take between 30 and 40 nitrogly cerin tablets daily in order to wid en his constricted blood vessels. He was virtually confined to a chair or bed.

A second case, "almost com pletely incapacitated before opera tion," underwent surgery nine months ago. "Now," reported Dr. Carter, "he leads a relatively normal life with no pain and can walk at least a mile a day in contrast to one or two blocks a day before opera tion." The third patient survived the operation all right but died two days later of an infection that the doctor said had nothing to do with his heart condition. iddy Climaxes 7-OunceEwg LONG BEACH. Calif., Jan. 21 HJP)- Biddy, a New Hampshire Red hen, was a specialist. She didnt lay often, but when she did the eggs were whoppers. Owner Ralph E. Martin said Biddy produced only two eggs a week for the past year, but they were always twice normal size. Today Biddy outdid herself. She laid an egg that would have made an ostrich proud. Martin said it measured 9V by 3 inches around and weighed nearly seven ounces. But as Martin marvelled over the mammoth hen fruit, his Joy was cut short. Biddy gave a feeble cluck, rolled over and died.
