Pay Increase Ends 10-Week Anna Strike MINEOLA, N.Y. ( A 10 week strike against the Anna Corp. ended Tuesday night as three striking unions ratified agreements providing for cross-the-board raises of 9 to 14 cents an hour and other concessions. New contracts to run for two years were agreed to by Locals 460 and 464 of the CIO Interna tional Union of Electrical Work ers and the Independent Engin eers Association of Anna. The strike started last July 24 when Local 460 walked Out of Anna plants here and in Brook lyn following the layoff of 158 men. The walkout of the other followed. The unions contended the men had been laid off without regard to seniority. A union statement said the settlements provided for reten tion of seniority by the IUE un ions and retention of the union shop by the engineers in addition to the wage increases. Government officials had said the strike, which involved 4250 electrical warkers, engineers, scientists and technicians, hamp ered progress of key atomic ener gy progects. The plants produce electrical and electronic devices. : sc I "ITT" ty v .t - f Crooked roads are going through the cure in many areas; Too photo shews a portion of a 5.6 mile stretch of potentially new highway through Pass.

CHoico of Promotion Man Dudley as Industrial Praise for businessmen, like Better Business Bureau functions. "Slow Process" Council Chairman Hogg said Tuesday he had great confidence in the appointee. But, cautioned Hogg, "the public should not ex pect miracles to occur overnight as a result of this appointment, for industrial development is a slow process and must necessar ily be on a long-term basis." He reminded that Salem In dustrial Development Council is committed to this policy: Council with and encourage already-existing industry; seek new indust ry, especially inter-allied indust ry; further the development and greater productive use of Ore gon's natural resources; study markets and search for expanded distribution of local products; conduct research of special op portunites to fill existing gaps or supplement present industry; encourage all types of business to participate in budgeting the industrial program. Senator Asks Inquiry Into Meat Prices WASHINGTON iff Sen. Humphrey (D Minn) said Tues day farmers in his state are "up in arms" over the big spread be tween the prices they get for live stock and retail meat prices in stores. Humphrey said he will demand that the Senate Agriculture Com mittee investigate why falling cat tle prices have not b ten reflected in what consumers must pay. Humphrey told a news confer ence he believed the livestock price situation would have a big political effect next year but he declined to go into details. However, Humphrey said so far farm resentment has been directed against President Eisenhow er's lieutenants rather than at the chief executive himself. "I think President Eisenhower's popularity is still as high as it was but I don't think it's as solid," he commented.' Humphrey said the farmer's share of the overall food dollar had dropped to 44 cents from a recent figure of 52 cents. The senatorsaid he would favor 90 per cent government price sup ports for livestock, which now are not under the support program. Meanwhile Sen. Murray (D Mont) issued a statement demand ing 100 percent parity prices on farm products. At present basic crops such as wheat, cotton and corn have mandatory 90 per cent support. Parity is a price considered fair to farmers for their products in relation to what they pay for the things they must buy. In Santiago, Chile, the owner or manager of a building which catches fire is arrested and must prove that the fire, was an accident.

CRITIC'S CORNER: After a look at the first offering of "This Is Show Business" in its new Fall TV schedule, my advice to tbe panel-show's razor sponsor is you'll pardon the expression look sharp! It was as weak a panel show as I've seen to date. For my money, only George S. Kaufman provides reason for the program's existence. Old Stone Face's wit is as sharp -as it is barbed 'and when he's in top form there isn't much else needed. In the debut, however, even Kaufman couldn't hold everything together. Clifton Fadimansits in as emcee - moderator, although what he has to moderate is something of a mystery. Fadiman presented dancer Lou Willis Jr., comedian Jackie Leonard and vocalist Toni Arden to the panel. Willis is quick on his feet and tapped out a few moments of pleasure. Leonard's jokes are undoubtedly what killed vodvil and it didn't die laughing. Miss Arden, of course, has a lot of voice and did nicely toith "Dancing in the Dark." - 1 Glamour-grandma Gloria Swanson and Sam Levenson offered their aid to Kaufman as panelists. Fadiman introduced the show as specializing in "free wheeling conversation." Wonder if he meant "out of gear." ADD MEMOS: With Fred Allen's return to the entertainment world, we might call attention to why he left it in 1946: "My week," said Fred, "is budgeted like a recipe for a nervous breakdown" . . . Jane, room-mate of "My Friend Irma," told her boyfriend that Irma was offered a trip around the world but Irma, after giving it considerable thought, declared, "No thanks, I thins 1 11 go somewhere else." (Copyright 1S53. General Features Corp.) Burma Issues Sharp Reply to Nationalists RANGOON. Burma ( Burma gave a sharp answer Tuesday night to Nationalist Chinese protests against the bombing of Chinese Na tionalist guerrillas in Burma. A spokesman said he was unable to understand why the Formosa regime is so "fussy" over the wel fare of the guerillas," over whom he has professed to have no con trol. Chiang Kai-Shek's attitude, be said, "is to disown these guerrillas whenever they indulge in acts of depredation and to protect them whenever such protection is con sidered necessary." (Story also on Page 1.) Officials of Salem Chamber of Commerce and Salem Industrial Development Council voiced their enthusiasm Tuesday at the selec tion of John R. Dudley. Canadian industrial promotion leader, to become executive manager of the new Salem industrial program. ' ' The industrial council has spent several months screening ap plications from 33 experienced men for the executive post here. Members found that uuaiey naa a substantial experience in the field of promoting industrial de velopment, had high recommena tions and a wide acquaintance with industrial prospects. ; As industrial commissioner at St. John, Canada, Dudley set up a successful industrial program seven years ago and since then has worked as its, top executive, in close relation with . railway and bank industrial managers, agencies of Canada government, the ILS. and other countries. "His program met with out standing success in the establish ment of small industries and ren dered of assistance to existing in dustry," said Carl Hogg, chair man of the Salem council, wha announced Dudley's selection. Managed Business Dudley, who retired from the Canadian Army is a lieutenant colonel in 1944, was an industrial and Chamber of Commerce man ager at Barrie, Ontario, then be came industrial and promotional manager for Canadian Chamber of Commrece national headquart ers at Montreal. Before the war he owned and managed a distrib uting business in the automotive equipment field, at Vancouver, B.C. In organizations and civic work Dudley has been active in pro fessional chamber groups, com munity chest and similar groups, Masons. Ki warns. Red Cross, YMCAv other groups. In his in dustrial field he has been active in attending international trade fairs and in international associ ations of industrial and chamber groups. Wife Participates Dudley's wife is known to have participated actively with him in his industrial development af fairs. They have one son, now in the Canadian Army. With the employment of Dud ley, Salem's industrial develop ment project is expected to get into full swing. In its organiza tional months, clear objectives have been set and more than $100,000 has been raised from businessmen to finance the pro gram over a five-year period. The financing. work will continue un til at least $150,000 has been raised. The complete industrial file of Salem Chamber of Commerce is being turned over to Dudley for his use in directing the coun cil's program. "Anxiously Awaited" Chamber President Russel E. Pratt, also an industrial council member, said Dudley's arrival here is "anxiously awaited," and from the chamber's standpoint, "will mean that the Salem cham ber now will be able to better handle the growing volume of tourist, convention, highway and other civic matters in which the chamber is expected to take the lead." Pratt said also that the cham ber would be in a position to un dertake some expanded services S talesman, Salem, Ore- WecU Sept. 30. tS53 (Sec 2-3 Sen. Dworsliak Says Idaho Backs Foreign Aid Cuts NYSSA, Ore. W Sen. Dworshak (R-Idaho) said Tuesday he has found "overwhelming sentiment" in Idaho for further cuts in for elgn spending. ' Addressing the Associated Champers of Commerce of South western : Idaho and Eastern Ore gon, Dworshak said some IS bil lion dollars were .available in this fiscal year for military and ec onomic spending abroad. "The people believe this is one potential source of great savings, he said, "and they feel they are not , getting proper cooperation from these beneficiary countries." He said industrial production in western European countries is now at a higher level than before World War IL California Sees More Sportsmen Activities SACRAMENTO, Calif U Hunt ing and fishing are increasing in California. Hunting license revenue for the fiscal year ending June 30 was more than $1,700,000, an Increase of 9.5 per cent over 1951-52. Fishing license revenue for the first six months of 1953 was 2, 011,384, up 10 per cent Natural Gas Rates Remain . Undetermined HOUSTON m The chairman of the Federal Power Commission (FPC) said here Tuesday night no arbitrary ceiling or floor has been set for determining the rate of re turn for natural gas companies. Jerome K. Kuykendall, Wash ington, D.C., said an arbitrary ceil ing or floor would be inconsistent ' with either the letter or the spirit ' of the Natural Gas Act, The act re- quires FPC to fix just and reason-' able rates. , . Kuykendall spoke at a dinner which concluded the annual meet-' ing of the Independent Natural Gas Assn. of America. Earlier Tuesday, Lt. Gen. Ernest O. Thompson told the convention natural gas exported from Texas ; last June increased 11.04 per cent over the same month last year. Thompson, chairman of the Tex- as Railroad Commission, also said he is not among those who worry"1 about Texas exporting gas to other states. Kuykendall said the Commission is fully cognizant of the responsibil ity it has to see that companies under its jurisdiction are given fair , treatment and that consumers are not shouldered with improper ; rates. MJ Lot's Screaming Siren Dries Up Cows VULCAN. Alta tm The National Research Council has set up a siren in a nearby field in an . at tempt to rid farmers of grain-consuming ducks. But the experi menters are dubious of the effects of the high-pitched device, called "Screaming Memie." When they tried it near Kinders- ley, Sask., it scared 90 per cent of the ducks, but dried up the cows and the hens stopped laying." said E. L. Paynter, Saskatchewan game commissioner.
