time before it is ready to interview
applicants for the job of president
of the University of Oregon.

Crews at Atom

RICHLAND UFt Kaiser Engi
neers, which holds a construction
contract at the Hanford Atomic
Works, ordered all craftsmen back
to work Wednesday, indicating a
strike by 90 millwrights may have
been settled.
The jurisdictional dispute a week
ago temporarily idled more than
5,500 workers. All but a few re
turned to the job, however, when
the local -AFL-Central Labor Coun
cil said the walkout was a "wild
cat strike.
Unable to return because they
worked alongside the millwrights
were 52 machinists. Their business
agent, Fred Keezer, said the 52
would report for, work Wednesday
m'orninj as ordered by the em
ployers. , The millwrights, however, said
they had no information concern
ing a settlement of the strike.
Their business agent, L. R. King,
had not returned from Oakland,
Calif., where he had gone to at
tend a union meeting. . ;

over half a million dollars every

Our rtviNi are large, but it takes a lot of
money to run a railroad. A great deal goes
right out again for goods, materials and
supplies to keep the nail road running, our j
passengers happy and your freight moving ,
smoothly.
Soma of rho things we spend the money for
are either staggering or peculiar or both. .
More thap a million and a half new cross
ties every year . . . 2,000 pounds of assorted
rubber bands . . . nearly 16 million barrels ;
of oil . . . two million gallons of creosote . . .
cores of new diesel locomotives ... thou- I
sands of freight cars. These are just a few.
And a lot of the money goes for things you 1
wouldn't ordinarily think of in connection
with a railroad, like two thousand dollars
worth of parsley. Moreover, under S.P.'s
vast modernization program, we bought
several hundred thousand dollars worth of
electronic switching and communication
equipment last year. i
We also bovght more than 90,000 ions of
new rail, angle ban and tie platesor about
1300 50-ton carloads.

sentenced to five years for armed
r assault. He was convicted of shoot
ing a 16-year-old girl who escaped

A 13-year-old girl told police she

and five years on a larceny
charge. The sentences are concur

two larceny charges. The sen
tences are consecutive.
A fourth man who was arrested
later, Ernest Guy McDowell, 22,
was sentenced to five years on two

Bay area.
Circuit Judge Dal M. King im
posed the sentences.

railroads was started in 1934,
although diesel switch engines
were used regularly as early as
1925.

dicing of the prisoner exchange.
But the Allies already have be
gun preparations for moving north
the Chinese and North Korean pris
oners.
Within S Days
AP Correspondent Robert Tuck-
man reported from Seoul that U.N.
officers hope to begin the exchange
within five days if the Commu
nists can bring their prisoners south
in that time.
Officers at Gen. Mark Clark's
U.N. Command headquarters in
Tokyo have not yet announced how
next of kin will be notified of the
return of their sons and husbands
They say they cannot disclose this
until plans for Big Switch" the l
prisoner exchange are completed, i
But it was learned from source
close to the headquarters that of
ficers of the U.N. Military Armis
tice Commission, who will handle I
the returning prisoners at Panmun
jom, have been ordered to give the
names of the first prisoners and
others who are particularly news
worthy to correspondents to be sent
directly around the world.
Official List
Later, when the repatriates i
arrive at Freedom ViUage in Mun-
san, an official list of their names
and addresses will be given to new
s-men as soon as (he adjutant gen-
erals casualty section confirms
them.
The reason for giving the names
immediately to the press is that
General Clark feels their families
will learn faster that way than 1
through normal Army channels of
the return of sons and husbands, the
source said.
This is the same policy that was
followed in the exchange of sick
and wounded prisoners "Operation
Little Switch" last April.
