PAGE EIGHT THE BEND BULLETIN. BEND, OREGON TUESDAY, JANUARY 21. 1947. Lower Tariffs Termed Danger To Agriculture WashinRton, Jim. 21 'U' The dairy industry chained today that state department proposals for lower tariffs would "wreak great damage" on American agri culture. Charles W. Holman, secretary of the National Co-operative Milk Producers federation, said it was "futile and illogical" for the agri culture department to set up large production goals while the state department sets out to "dy namite farm prices hy duty slashes." We testified before the govern ment's committee for reciprocity information. The state depart ment will study the testimony be fore going ahead with proposed lower-tariff agreements with IS foreign countries. Background Called Dark "The world background of low prices, rising production and trade manipulations is dark in deed for American producers if they are to be crushed by price competition," Holman said. He said American butter prices ranged between 75 to S5 cents a pound in recent months although a "chaotic break" occurred last week. Under parity support prices, he said, the "worst" price for butter would be 51 cents a pound but even that is 20 cents higher than the price in the new British pur chase contract with New Zealand.

The vessel was carrying 4560 tons of grain to Japan. Cape Disappointment is five miles west of Astoria. The freighter's 49 crewmen, who abandoned ship as rescue craft approached, were picked up in their open boats by three ves sels. None of the crew was hurt. Most of the men were landed at Astoria by the coast guard motor lifeboat Triumph and the pilot schooner Columbia,- but eight or nine continued toward Portland aboard the freighter Jo seph Gale which was nearby when the Drexel Victory cracked up. The men landed here reported that the Drexel Victory was cross ing the bar when a 15-foot swell set the heavily laden, 4563-net ton ship down on the bottom. The blow broke the freighter between the No. 4 and No. 5 holds.

By Henry Minard (United Prrs Staff Cmponlnt k Seattle, Jan. 21 uWhen Paul Bunyan returns to the northwest Vincent J. Russi's problem will be solved. And Russi does have a problem. A big one. It's his 150-foot zipper. What to do with it? It fits a Bun yan sized lumber jacket. The magic, "open sesame-like" gadget has infinite uses, all right. But 150-footer? Russi just shakes his head as he dreamily opens and closes it. He received the gargantuan chain from an eastern manufac turer. As he started to open it again, he said: "You might think" (300 feet later) "that I'm not busy. I am. I repair zippers." Russi means he frees panicky customers from their jammed fas teners. "White faced women red-faced men. They come in here and ask us to un zip 'em. Sport jackets that Houdinl couldn't wriggle out of. Purses and wallets incidental ly, a good way to avoid the check." Russi admitted he still doesn't know a zipper's secret. "Why it works beats me but it works. Most breakdowns can be blamed on the user." Vain women who try to squeeze into a skirt too small and then force the fastener up and over. "Well they're our customers, too." "Longest I ever heard tell of a man hanged up on his own zip per," his voice dwindled. He came back . . . "was a fellow that couldn't get out of his sleeping bag. It was hours before he fin ally slithered out of bed." "As yet," he said, "I haven't started home service. Oh, there's a -demand for it. We get frantic calls. But we just tell 'em to I bring themselves, or the article, to dressing rooms and attendants j in the shop. Most cases it's a i quick, painless operation." I Russi didn't have any trouble I finding someone who could use j his smallest zipper a two incher. A woman figured that one out. " 'Bout the most tragic case was a fellow who came in with one of those whiskey flasks in a leather pouch. He was almost in tears before we got the bot . . . pouch opened. I "One of these days I'll figure a ' use for my big one." he said as he j finally stopped his pacing. I "By the way where is Bunyan j these days?"
