Seni Holmes Assigned Task Of Explaining Holy Report Bills State Senator Robert Holmes, Clatsop county, has been assigned the task of explaining the several bills resulting from the survey of Dr. T. C. Holy, involving the states elementary and secondary school systems, before the legislative educational committees. Holmes is a member of the advisory committee to the state board of education which was responsible for Dr. Holy's employment He aid it would require two hours to explain the 37 bills now being drafted for introduction in the senate and house either Monday or Tuesday. Four groups of bills, involving the most important recommendations in the Holy re port, will be introduced in the senate and three groups in the house of representatives. The report contained approxi mately 175 recommendations but not all of these will be presented to the legislature, Senator Holmes said. Most serious opposition to the Holy report involves recommen dations for reorganization of school districts and appointment of the state superintendent of in struction by the state board of education. This office, now held by Rex Putnam, is elective at the present time. Second Half of Tittle Hoover' Report Near Second half of the so-called "Little Hoover' interim committee report will be released within the next 10 days or two weeks, Robert Johnson, executive secretary, an nounced here Saturday. The entire report deals largely with reorganization of the state government with particular rela tion to handling of finances. First half of the report was re leased in December. Johnson said the second half of the report would contain approximately 25 recommenda ti on?. The committee was created at the 1949 legislature and held hearings covering virtually all sections of the state. Bills based on the first half of the report are now being draft ed. Legislators said many of these bills would be controversial. Bill Authorizes Preference for Oregon Firms Two bills, sponsored by the State Federation of Labor and re lating to public contracts, had been drafted here Saturday and will be introduced in the legislature Mon day. One provides that the state, counties, cities, school districts and all other governmental agencies must seek competitive bids on all contracts where more than $10,000 is involved. Only exception, fed eration of labor officials said, would be to cope with emergencies such as a flood-damaged bridge. Under the other bill, if an Ore gon firm's bid is within 10 per cent of the low bid of an out-of-state company, the Oregon company would receive the contract. The current law provides that a prefer ential of five per cent may be given Oregon contractors. The bills will be introduced by Rep. Gust Anderson, Portland re publican, and Sen. Phil Brady, Portland democrat. Both Brady and Anderson are labor union of ficials. Another bill to be introduced Monday would. prohibit vocational, professional and trade schools from discriminating against any student or applicant for admission. The bill would halt discrimination because of race, religion or nation al origin. In event of violation the school would lose its state license. This bill is sponsored bv Reps. E. J. Ireland, Molalla: Mafk Hat field. Salem, and John D. Logan. Portland. Mrs. Jessie Morgan, 79, Breaks Ankle Mrs. Jessie Moragn, 79, 1698 Bellvue St., was in Salem Gen eral hospital Saturday night for treatment of a broken ankle in curred in a fall at her home.

Cullen. director of the state statute revision coun cil. Saturday was wondering what has become of all the bills drafted by his department. He said 220 bills had been prepared in his office but only 50 of them had been introduced when the legislature recessed Friday over the weekend. The other 170 probably are in legislators' desks or pockets, a veteran senator averred. Cullen said he had received Shoppers Car Park Dedicated at Ceremony 0 I! 11 n f V 4 awn i f i !

Women's Figures to Survive War Scare By Dorothy Roe Associated Press Fashion Editor NEW YORK, Jan. 13-(;P)-Wars may come and wars may go, but the great American figure will remain under control. Such is the prediction of Max Kops, president of one of the na tion's leading foundation garment manufacturing firms and chairman of the committee on essentiality of the Corset and Brassiere associa tion of America. The corset and brassiere indus try was established as "semi- essential-' during World War II, Kops explains. Government offi cials decided then that the dam age to morale would be disastrous if U. S. women were deprived of their uplifts and two-way-stretch underpinnings. In the present emergency, the industry expects even more con cessions to the importance of the streamlined figure. So far, says Kops, restrictions of civilian use of rubber and cop per have little effect on bra and girdle production. Manufacturers jpf elastic thread, from which such garments are , made, have been limited to the average production of a fixed base period. But sup plies at present are adequate. The recent restriction on use of copper allows use of the metal in hooks and eyes used to fasten foundation garments. Brassiere clips will not be made of copper in the future, but a substitute rustproof steel will be used. Kops anticipates shortages of nylon before the year is over, but says present supplies of nylon garments are up to normal. If rubber restrictions forbid the use of natural rubber in corsets and brassieres, he believes syn thetics have been perfected to the point where they will be satisfac tory substitutes. The industry, says Kops, is pre pared for any eventuality, and will see to it that U. S. women re main firmly supported, come what may. In the meantime, consumers will not be aware of any shortages of foundation garments of their fa vorite style for several months, at least. Nisei Named First Citizen ONTARIO.

Free Book on Arthritis And Rheumatism W AC Thrilled With Europe Assignment NEW YORK, Jan. lMVPretty PFC. Maxlne Powell, first member of the Women's Army corps as signed to Gen. Dwight D. Eisen hower's European headquarters, did some last minute shopping to day. Private Powell will fly to Paris from Westover field, Mass., next week to serve as a secretary in the supreme headquarters of the allied powers in Europe. The green-eyed, brown-haired, 21-year-old WAC is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Olyn Powell, of Hope, Ark. She said when she telephoned her parents to tell them of her ap pointment, she could hardly talk because "I was practically in tears." Private Powell said she is anx ious to see the French women "to see what it Is all the men are talking about" and the French men "to see how they operate." She's not worried, she said, about the possibility of having to report directly to General Eisen hower. "It won't bother me any more than reporting to a sergeant," she said. "I'm used to generals. And they say he's right down to earth." 'Thi ShrtetmcaL Scfan, Oregon, Sunday, January It 181- Farley Doubts World War III NEW YORK, Jan. 13-P-James A. Farley, former postmaster gen eral and national democratic chairman, said tonight he was "confident there will be no third world war."

Second, because of the United States' industrial might." "Joe Stalin will think twice," he added, "after realizing what happened to Hitler, Mussolini and Tojo in World War Two. "Right now there is a defeatist attitude, but if I know my Amer ica, she will come out of this with flying colors." Rep. Hatfield to Address P-TA Rep.
