Dutch Families
Hold Annual Feed
Verboort, Nov. 22 UPi Dutch
faram families in this Willamette
valley community cleaned up to
day after the annual church saus
age feed.
Though only !iG0 persons live
nearly all said to be descendants
of eight pioneering Dutch fam
ilies more than 1200 came down
for the homemade sausage, kraut,
apple and pumpkin pies.
Traditional sausage maker Ben
Heesacker, who held the post for
11 years, said half a ton was fork
ed out at the dinner held the Sun
day of Thanksgiving week.
Rev. Robert S. Neugebauer of
the visitation Catholic church said
oroceeds from the dinner would
help pay for a new church to re
place one burned in 1941.
Military Budget
Hits Air Program
Washington, Nov. 22 ll'i The
air forcc'j 70-group program ap
parently would be knocked into a
cocked hat by military budget
proposals now before Defense sec
retary James Forrestal.
It was learned today that these
proposals might cause a cut of as
much as 28 per cent in the
strength which the air force rep
resents as the minimum it should
have at the outbreak of a war.
The five-year 70-group program
might become a 50-group one, ac
cording to calculations now being
made here. This would be not
only 20 groups fewer than the air
force argues are essential but
seven fewer than it has now.
Congress appropriated the
money for the first year of the
70-group program but It failed In
the pre-adjournment rush last
June to pass a bill authorizing
the full five-year plan. How It will
react to a new budget proposing
anything less than 70 groups re
mains to be seen.
The estimated cutback is based
on a division of defense money
proposed to Forrestal by a three
service committee which kept
within President Truman'3 $15,
000,000,000 limit for next year's
military spending. The commit
tee, some reliable sources say,
recommended $5,200,000,000 for
the air force, $5,000,000,000 for
the army and $4,800,000,000 for
the navy.

Hollywood Depression Takes
Another Dovnvard Slide
By Virginia MacPherson
(United Pre Stuff CurnwiHrniifnt)
Hollywood 'If' Hollywood's
depression has taken another
downward ,sllde but still hasn't
become a "panic" despite the
moans of million-dollar movie
moguls. '
With other industries around
the country counting "boom" pro
fits, the movie business Is getting
poorer every month. And people
who handle statistics say things
won t get better before the mid
dle of January.
More than 1,800 laborers car-
penters, painters, clerical workers,
and stage hands lost their Jobs
last Week. Eagle-Lion studios
closed up completely, except for a
SKeleton crew, and Warner Brotn
ers, one of the biggest studios,
fired 1.000 workers en masse.
Tne Screen Actors' guild, which
has 8,000 members, reports only
Hi ot them under contract.
Heavy Decrease
"This Is a terrific decrease," a
spokesman there , said. "Last
March we had 463 under contract
and' in March, 1947, there were
742. This doesn't count free-lance
players, who're probably hardest
hit of all, because any producer
trying to save money will hire
people he has to pay anyhow.
lop stars wno get $a,uuu a
week or $250,000 per picture aren't
suffering in the current slump.
