PAGE FOURTEEN THE BEND BULLETIN, BEND. OREGON . TUESDAY, JANUARY 24. 1950 i U. N. Refugee Assistance Project to Wind Up Soon Franklurt, Germany (IPi A mammoth organization which for years has been the hope of hun dreds of thousands of displaced persons, and refugees will break up its camps during the middle of 1950. . .The International Refugee Or ganization, which has carried out a tremendous task for almost three years, ceases its activity , next June. Up to the closing date, the IRO either will have resettled or re patriated 970,000 persons, IRO of ficials said. . " After-that date the on!y excep tion will be made for persons who are "actually in process of resettlement. Officials have estimated that about 290,000 persons still will be dependent on IRO aid after June, 1950. The IRO council in Geneva de cided last October to continue certain functions of the organiza tion in a supplementary period of six to nine months past the clos ure date. The IRO hopes that, It will be able to reestablish 100,000 more persons during the prolonged per iod of nine months after next June. That decision, however, has no effect on the closing down date announced earlier, Philip E. Ryan, IRO chief of the U.S. zone, said. "We are under instructions to terminate all care and mainten ance of displaced persons on or before June 30 except for those persons as may then be in the process of resettlement," Ryan said. Zone headquarters meanwhile Was working out plans to con tinue assistance in the resettle ment of DPs for the nine months after June. Refugees who have left their home countries since Oct. 15, 1949, are no longer qualified for IRO assistance in care and mainten ance or in resettlement or re patriation. They may, however, request legal and political pro tection. No persons will be accepted in camps after next Dec. 31. IRO officials are facing another serious problem. Most of the ap plicants had chosen the United States for emigration but com paratively few are eligible under the present displaced person act. An amendment that would have admitted over 100,000 more DPs to the United States was deferred by the U.S. senate at its last session. Thus the IRO will be forced to send the number of persons not admitted for immigration into the United States to Canada, Austra lia or Venezuela. Rosie the Riveter No Longer Works Long Beach, Calif, dii Rosie the Riveter and all but four of her 353 fellow workwomen In the Terminal island naval shipyard have quit, since the war's end.

At the peak of war-time em ployment in the shipyard, there were nearly d,000 women working there. But most of them had more "ladylike" jobs as clerical and departmental employes. - TOO MANY DUMB ONES Los Angeles, Jan. 24 UI1 Freshman college students are growing "increasingly illiterate," President Ernest Colwell of the University of Chicago said today.

U1 Mark An thony, the Cincinnati zoo's 13 foot, man-eating Nile crocodile, is just - a baby, having lived only about ' 50 or 60 of his anticipated 200' years. j Like any baby, he likes to put thinpti in hlfi mouth. Thinau like V sheep, or 40 pounds of horse! meat. But now he's gone too far. He has swallowed a pop bottle. I Mark sheds his teeth as a deer sheds his antlers and he happened to be losing a few when somebody : dropped the pop bottle into his tank. His gums were sore, with new teeth coming through, so he used the bottle as a teether. When his keepers tried to take it away, he would lie on it or hide it in his mouth. Keeper Robert Clemens said it would have been suicide for anyone to go into the tank to take the bottle away from Mark. Then the tiling everyone feared happened. , Willard Owens, the head keep er, was watching Mark suck the bottle. Owens looked away a mo ment. When he looked back, no bottle. Some think Mark can live for years with the bottle lodged In his reptilian interior, utners tninK it may clog his intestines and cause death within a few weeks or months. At any rate, Mark is worth $5,000. It would be a pity to lose him because of a two-cent soft drink bottle, Owens commented.
