t The Oroqon Stat man, Scdom, Senators Take Klightcaj From Tri-City, 8 to 2 By AL LIGITTNER Statesman Sports Editor The Salem Senators salvaged the second game of last night's double bill with Tri-City at Waters Field, notching an 8-2 triumph after losing the opener, a real heartbreaker, 1-0 in 12 innings. Young Jack Hemphill, making a strong bid for a regular starting role for the Salems, hurled the victory, spreading seven hits and yielding runs only in the fifth and ninth innings. Illegal Price Cutting Laid to Chain Stores WASHINGTON (JFj-The Feder l Trade Commission (FTC) Sun day accused the big Safeway and Kroger grocery cnains oi mow ItiffW accepting price discrimina Horn from suppliers of merchan dise. The result, FTC said in the com plaint, is that Safeway and Kjog tr are in position to spend more on business promotion or offer lower oriees than their compeu tnn Either or both of those thine tends to lessen competl tion and lead toward monopoly. the commission said. It noted that Safeway ranks sec ond in size among American gro cery chains and Kroger third, lach has about 2,000 retail stores and annual sales volume around one billion dollars. Hearings on the question of vi olation of the Clayton Act are set for Safeway in San Francisco on July 21 before examiner Abner I. Lipscomb, and for Kroger in Cincinnati August 25 before ex aminer Webster Ballinger. Safeway immediately called the eomplaint "completely u n ) u 1 1 1 fied" and Kroger branded it as being 'entirely without founda tion " A statement issued at Safeway's Oakland, Calif., headquarters by President Lingan A. Warren as serted Safeway's constant policy has been to comply with all laws applicable to its business and aaid further "Safeway has not knowingly in- duced or received any prices, dis counts, or allowances in violation of the law, and we are confident that the evidence will prove it is not guilty of the commission's charges." President Joseph B. Hall of Kroger said in a statement at Cin cinnati, headquarters for the vast grocery concern: A charge that our buying prac tices have been in violation of any law is entirely without founda tion 1 The complaints allege that for some grocery store merchandise the suppliers have charged com petitors of Safeway and Kroger higher prices than those charged the two chains for products of like grade and quality. f These transactions were unlaw ful, the FTC said in the com plaints, because the chains pur chased the merchandise with the knowledge that the prices they paid were lower than those paid by their competitors and by wholesalers who resell to such competitors.

And when the Senators tore into Lefty George New in the sixth inning for three runs, it was the first time the locals scored in 21 straight innings, spread over the span of three games. An opening walk to Manager Hugh Luby, Andy Anderson's rifle-shot double into left-center, scoring Luby, Jim Dayo's bunt hit, an infield out and Dick Bartle's single provided the three runs. Five more runs were jammed across the plate in the eighth as the Salems again exploded. Dey's double, another two-baser by Bob Nelson, still another by Dick Bar tle, a walk to Tom, Galli, another pass to Hemphill and singles by Glenn Tuckett and Boss Luby pro-1 vided the five runs. Hemphill fan ned seven and walked four, two in the ninth, in racking up his second win of the season. New fan ned nine and walked five. He vis ibly lost his stuff near the end of the mix.

Ewing, commencement speaker, urged the graduates to take an Interest in politics: "For the sins and failures of political there is just one cure more politics; bet ter politics; politics in the vigor ous forthright tradition of Ameri can democracy," he said. "I don't expect you to think that our national house is in perfect order. But I do expect you to feel some sense of personal responsi bility about it," he said. Earlier in an interview Ewing criticized what he called the "hi erarchy" of the American Medical Association as "the greediest group that exists." He said this group was respons ible for the defeat in Congress last week of a revised social security act. He said the AMA believed that one provision of the act might lead to socialized medicine.

Major Gen. William K. Harri son Jr., expressed this view in his first interview since replacing Vice Adm. C. Turner Joy as chief dele gate on May 22. Harrison, seated in a tent at the Allied base camp here, said he hoped the Communist armistice delegates are using the current three-day recess "to study once again" the Allied stand against returning prisoners to Communism by force." That is the big issue blocking an armistice in Korea. But he conceded the Red dele gation may return to Panmunjom Tuesday still determined to "delay or reject an armistice."

All You Can Eat of Anything, and Everything I From 11i30 to 8:30 on weok day i from 12 to t on Sundays with Mary Barton's organ MeJorfios Downtown Salem on Stat Stroot o ou Mid-Valley Iris Gardens Draw 1,500 Visitors By LILLIE L. MADSEN Garden Editor. The- Statesman That irises are a popular flower was proved again Sunday when more than 1,500 people visited the three widely known iris gardens in the Salem-Silverton area. The mecca of the iris tourists were Schreiner's gardens north of Sa lem in the Quinaby area, the dis play gardens and iris farm of Mr. and Mrs. R. M. Cooley and the hybridizing gardens of Dr. R. Kleinsorge at Silverton. Dr. Kleinsorge, who began hy bridizing some 30 years ago has won international recognition for his many fine creations. Sunday the hundreds of visitors were per mitted to view not only many of his old favorites such as Auburn, introduced in 1945; Ballet Dancer, 1949; Black and Gold, 1943; Bryce Canyon, 1945 (still one of the most popular of the coppery shades); Cascade Splendor, 1945; Daybreak, 1941 (one of the very early pink irises introduced); Cordovan, 1946, a seedling of Bryce Canyon; Pret ty Quadroon, 1948; Prince of Or ange, 1940, as well as many of the newer ones, including Love light, Roseabella, Spanish Fan dango and Solid Gold, all intro duced a year ago. In addition to these, visitors at the Kleinsorge gardens Sunday, were delighted with many of the new yet unnamed seedlings just coming into bloom. There was a heavenly blue, bearing the tag number 392A, which had one of the best branching habits that I, for one, had ever seen on any iris. A new, shorter growing iris, which proved popular with many of the visitors was Alline Roger. A moat unusual one .with all the rainbow colors, was No. 375. The outer edge of the fall of this were bronzy and yellow while the cen ter of the falls was a deep blue. Another one, our own party liked particularly well was No. 355, a mixture of old gold and bronze, the colors in which Dr. Kleinsorge has excelled in his hy bridization. Among the visitors to the three gardens Sunday was the North west branch of the American Iris Society, headed by Bennett Jones and Mrs. Jones. Approximately 100 were in this party all of whom stopped for a pre-arranged lunch eon at Toney's at Silverton. The society has been holding a week end convention at Portland and the Sunday tour was the final event of the affair. The annual iris show, held at the iris house in the Cooley Dis play Gardens, will continue open to the public Monday.

Elfstrom is serving as chairman of the commission. Elfstrom, ex-mayor of Salem, was nominated by the Republicans for one of the four Marion County seats in the house at the recent primary election. He was third in the contest. The law provides that no per son shall hold two lucrative pub lic offices at the same time. Mc Kay said that Elfstrom, at the time he accepted membership on the liquor control commission, indi cated he would retire within 18 months. Elfstrom indicated that if chos en as representative from Marion County he would sponsor several needed amendments to the Knox liguor control ace. These amend ments, it was indicated, would strengthen the enforcement fea tures of the law, instead of weak ening them.
