I'aioa Officials Since the death of Charlemagne In 814 A.D., the border between the Gauls and the Teutons has been a source of friction. In modern times the emerging German empire seized Alsace Lorraine from France In the Franco-Prussian War of 1870. Recovery of the "lost prov ince" was the dream ot French men thereafter, and it was realized with victory in the first world war, Controversy then developed over the tiny (988 sq. mi.) Saar Valley which joins French Lorraine. The Saar has rich coal fields, Lorraine John L. Lewis and Thomas Ken nedy, president and vice president of the Mine Workers member of the board of directors. Lewis attend ed a National Coal Assn. conven tion luncheon where Tuohy made hia announcement. Tuohy said there is growing demand tor coal in Europe, Asia and South America, that this coun try has the coal reserves to fill those needs, and adequate rail road facijitiei to freight coal ta ocean docks. from a barge, which started drag ging anchor. The seven men aboard the barge leaped onto the May Dee and it was swamped. The seven and the May Dee's eight-man crew were thrown into the water. The mishap occured in Grand Island Channel, an arm of the Gulf of Mexico, about 10 miles Union, are east of Louisiana and 10 miles new concern's south of Bav St. Louis. Miss. Need Shipping "The weak link in extensive bodies of iron ore. so the ; is shipping." Tuohy said. It came as the Mississippi Gulf Coast experienced its highest tides since a devastating hurri cane in 1947. Captain Saved Radio station WGCM in Gulf port, Miss., picked up a short wave report from the Cormorant saying the captain was among those saved. Ha was picked up swimming near a beacon, the re port said, . ' The Coast Guard said all of the the picture men had on life jackets. I two districts ought to be integrated but the national border intervened. In the settlement of the first world war France got title to the coal mines of the Saar in compen sation for German destruction of mines in northern France. Govern ment of the Saar was left to a League of Nations commission, but In 1935 the people of the Saar voted to return to Germany and Hitler of course acclaimed that as his tri umph. Came the second world war and another German defeat. France occupied the Saar, and proceeded to weld it economically with Itself. Numerous efforts were made in recent years to settle the dispute over the highly industrialized Saar Valley. Premier Mendes - France made his terms a condition for association of France in western defense, but Germany rejected the conditions. Last week, however, Premier Guy Mollett and Chancel (CenUnaed a editorial page, 4.) Tuohy and Bowditch told report ers they have no firm idea yet whefe they are going to get the ships. , The union, railroads, and coal companies all will put "substan tial investments' in the new ship ping firm, already incorporated as American Coal Sniping Inc., Tuohy said. He said the company expects to make money Bids Sought On Dormitory At Deaf School North Polk High School Plan Ready Producers Join Forces to Further Berry Shortcake Citizens will have little difficulty In needing a proclamation issue! Wednesday by Gov. Elmo Smith. He proclaimed June 17-23 as "Strawberry Shortcake Week" in Oregon. The "whereases" in the docu ment cited the state's peerless Marshall and Northwest variety strawberries, the shortcake made from Oregon soft wheat, and the rich whipping cream from its dairy berds. The Oregon Wheat Commission, 0 r t g o n-Washington Strawberry Council and Oregon Dairy Prod ucts Commission have joined forces for the shortcake promotion. Call for bids for a $550,000 dormitory at the State School for the Deaf was authorized by the State Board of Control at a meet ing Wednesday in the Capitol. Final drawings were submitted by Logan and Murtaugh, Port land architects, and it was ex pected that actual construction iperations would start within a few months. Marvin B. Clatter burk, school superintendent, said the new dormitory was badly needed because of the increasing population at the institution. The board accepted the re modeled dining room and kitchen at the Oregon State Tuberculosis Hospital. Renewal of a contract involv ing a life insurance policy cover ing the state police and the peni tentiary personnel with the standard Insurance Company, Portland, was approved. The rate for the next fiscal year will be the same as the current one. Broken Electric Fan Blade Injures Child DENVER - Richard Perd ham, 9, was critically injured Wednesday by an electric fan blade that broke and sailed across a room, cutting his throat. Frank Perdham told newsmen doctors reported his son lost seven pints of blood. FLUORIDATION VOTE PORTLAND I The proposal to fluoridate city water will go on the .November ballot, the City Council decided Wednesday. W1LBERT SlaUiman Ncwi larvlrt . D A L L A S Eleven north Polk County school districts have de cided to give active consideration to forming a new union high school. Representatives of the districts have formed a fact finding com mittee which already is ready to make its first' report at a meeting at 8 p.m. Friday in Rickreall School. Directors of all the school districts are being invited to bear this report. Districts showing interest in the possibility are Rickreall, Perry dale, Orchard View, Orchards, Oak Grove, Greenwood, Eola, Buell, Ballston, Bethel and Perry dale. About two-thirds of the estimat ed total assessed valuation of $3. 282.000 is in the Perrydale and Rickreall area. The 11-district area would have about 150 high school students. Of the 11, Perry dale has a high school and the others now send their students to neighboring high schools. (Add. details, Page IS, Sec. ! ) Wednesday urged residents to pre pare for the coming polio season. "It is not too late to start the series' of shots with family doc tors to receive some degree of protection before the peak polio months of September and October," Dr. Willard Stone, Mar ion County health officer said Wed nesday. Dr. Stone estimated that about 45 per cent of those eligible to receive polio shots in this coun try have failed to do so. The vaccine, although in more plenti ful supply than earlier this year, is still rationed to youngsters up to 14 years of age and to pregnant women. Better Thaa Noae "Many children have not had their first shots yet," said Dr. Stone. "Others have failed to re ceive their second or third inocula tion. If they start now, they can receive two shots before Septem ber. And even one shot is better than none for the person who is struck by polio. Manufacture of the vaccine has been stepped up to the point where one Salem representative of pharmaceutical house received the equivalent of 5,000 shots. An other 1.220 tax-paid shots are avail able to Indigent persons at the health department through local doctors. I'ptarit Expected Despite progress mad in the polio fight, said Dr. Stone, it is anticipated Marion County will ex perience its usual summertime upsurge in polio cases. "Although tbe number of polio cases in Oregon this year to date is running slightly under that of last year," he said, "California has had about 150 more cases this year than last." Weathermen Say Clouds, Showers Clouds and showers are pre dicted for today and Friday by the McNary Field weather station. High today will probably be 68. the low tonight 50. High Friday is expected to be 72. Northern Oregon beaches will probably receive a few showers and sunny periods today becoming partly cloudy tonight. High today is expected to be 57 to 62, the low tonight 47 to 52. UJS. Forestry Office to Add To Salem Staff The U.S. forestery office's permanent staff in Salem will be increased from 33 foresters to 32 within the next few reeks. The additions will mean an added payroll of about $23,000. District Forester Otto a F, Krueger said the increase would enable the district to intensify its land management activitiea. The staff also will be bolstered by eight summer employes, in cluding three forestry trainees and five laborers. The bigger staff for the Salem district o' the Bureau of Land Management and expectations of further increases in the next fis cal year has resulted in issuance of invitations to bid on enlarged office quarter at 213 North Front Street. Deadline for sub mission of bids is June 18. More employes for the Salem district will enable tbe speeding of a re-inventory of timber re sources, more attention to plan ning location of federal timber access roads, more time for tres pass investigations and a more thorough job of planning timber sales, the district office reported. Two of the seven professional foresters slated to join the Salem district staff already are here. They are rnry Blessing, fores try graduate of New York State University at Syracuse, ai.- Dana Collins, who recently received his masters in forestry at Ore gon State College.

Water backed up that high in the harbor in the Columbia River's spring flood, but dipped below that level Wednes day afternoon. Ships are required to travel at low speed in the vicinity of the bridge. Ike Drinks Beef Broth WASHINGTON U - President Eisenhower, after resting and doz ing most of the afternoon, drank some broth Wednesday the first food he has taken by mouth since his intestinal operation last Satur day. He was ' very happy to get the clear beef broth, even though it was less than half a cupful.

High Court Rules Cahill to Serve Term Otto W. Cahill, who was sen tenced to a year in the peniten tiary for taking $750 from the Taft-Nelscott-Delake Water Dis trict, lost his appeal to the State Supreme Court Wednesday. The court ruled 5-2 that the conviction of Cahill, who was sec retary of the district, should be upheld. It is the high court s second opinion in the case. It ruled 4-2 on Jan. 25 that the conviction is valid, but then ordered a re hearing. Cahill is the man whe sparked the investigation of alleged vice in Lincoln county three years ago. He brought many of the charges, but the grand jury end ed up with only one indictment. That was against Cahill himself. The district had given Cahill the $750 to buy water pipe.

LOUIS Flying a jet air plane on a long flight easily could have its problems but one you might not think of offhand is just how to go about eating. The Air Force has. Three methods of feeding the jet fighter pilot, weighted down with heavy clothing and cooped up in a crowded cockpit, were described Wednesday to a national conven tion of the Institute of Food Technologists. Col. Albert Taylor, attached to the aero medical laboratory at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, Dayton, Ohio, listed the methods as liquid food, tablet form or semi solid food. Decrease Appetite "Flight duties and the aircraft environment tend to decease ap petite." CoL Taylor said. "Foods must be high in acceptability so they will be eaten in sufficient quantities. Furthermore, good food is a positive morale factor; poor food is detrimental to morale. The jet fighter pilot can't move from his seat, is heavily clothed and carries a parachute, oxygen and other equipment. Storage space Is limited. No food heating or cooling equipment can be pro vided. The pilot must pay constant attention to flying his aircraft. These are some of the problems which Col. Taylor sakt the A i r Force faces in its feeding prob lem. Tube Arraagemeat Liquid foods, he said, are taken by the pilot in restricted eondi lions by a tube arrangement urougn helmet opening. Fruit and vegetable juices al ready are available. An improved chocolate milk and lemonade ve been approved and Col. "aylor said a canned liquid chicken and ham "show considerable promise." The tablet, which needs to be bite-sized, is dispensed to the pilot by a device which drops one of the foods into his hand with pressure on a button. Chocolate, cheese, cookie and milk food tablets are being field tested. Work has started, Col. Tayler said, on semi-solid foods in tubes sai. km with elongated Kpouts which the , por,l,n1 pilot would empty by squeezing ' Mrs. Ruth Ruth Married in Ruth RUTH, Nev.

The hies returned for a half hour yesterday "and may, every now and then, when he gets nervous." Cheat Paia Jack said he feels "wonderful" except for a recurrent chest pain which X-rays and electrocardio grams have failed to diagnose. Some doctors think the pain may be a reaction to the halt in his long siege, he said, while others think it may be from an intestin al disturbance. Wednesday was the eighth an niversary of the start of Jack's ordeal, he began hiccuping after his appendix ruptured June 13, 1948, Asked Wednesday how he was progressing, his mother said she had been delaying a report of his seeming recovery to see it it would last O'Leary said the bone relic was brought to him last October by a Chaplain who received it from a Cardinal In Rome. Jack and his family met the chaplain, a Col. Clasby, now stationed at Norton Air Force Base, San Bernardino, about 10 years ago when Clasby was at El Toro Marine Air Sta tion. The O'Learys accompanied Dona Lee, now 21, one of Jack's three sisters, to that station when she sang for servicemen. She was then a child vocalist in RKO movies.
