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.

Ship Sinks Near
Columbia Bar
Astoria, Ore., Jan. 21 HP Her
back broken on the Columbia
river bar, the freighter Drexel
Victory sank at sea five miles off
Cape Disappointment early today,
approximately eight hours after
her crew was safely taken off.
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?"
