He said that while Oregon was rapidly in creasing in population in the past ten years, the number of dairy cows in the state dropped by 50, 000. He attributed much of this drop to the increased use by Ore gon residents of dairy substitutes, especially in the oleo field. How ever, he mentioned that although the dairy population has decreas ed, the average output per cow nas increased. $400 Loss The breeders' association this past year operated at a loss of ap proximately S400, reports submit ted at the meeting revealed.

McCallum George W. Shanks. James Freeman Jay Shanks Olive Shindler. Adv. MADRAS WOMAN DIES Mrs. Mary E. Young, of Mad ras, died this morning at St. Char les hospital, where, she had been a patient since February 14. Miners (Continued from Page 1) gued that the previous convic tions had nothing to do with this trial. But he withheld a final de cision until tomorrow, when he will examine a back-to-work letter Lewis sent to his then-striking miners on Dec. 7, 194b. As in the present case, the miners were under federal injunc tion to go back to work. They de- Iied the court then until Lewis or dered them to return to the pits. . Lewis issued two back-to-work ordors in the present strike, after Keech signed an anti-strike order on Feb. 11, but the miners so far have ignored them. His attorneys have based their defense in this trial on the contention that Lewis orders purged the union of con tempt and that the miners are striking as individuals in defiance of their union leadership. The government wanted the previous trial records produced in evidence to show that the back-to-work instructions were not meant seriously and were so un derstood by the miners. Government attorneys argued that the union "deliberately" per mitted the present strike with full knowledge of the penalties it was risking. The . government sought to bring the UMW's previous convic tions into the current trial in or der to cite the so-called "Golds borough doctrine."

Acheson Recants (Continued from Page 1) when he denied he slipped state department secrets to a prewar communist spy ring. Prepared In Advance Acheson's new statement on Hiss was prepared in advance, in expectation that the suDcommit tee would question him about Hiss. Acheson said that his statement of Jan. 25 about not turning his back on Hiss did not "discuss the charges in the case In any way, either directly or indirectly." That statement, he said, was not casting aspersions on the judge or jury which convicted Hiss, a long-time friend of Ache son. He said that "personal" and of ficial reasons made it impossible for him to remain silent on the Hiss case when he was asked originally. Citing the "personal" reasons, Acheson said: ' Consequence Evil . "One must be true to the things by which one lives. The counsels of discretion and cowardice are appealing. The safe course is to avoid siiuations which are dis agreeable and dangerous." Such a course, he said, might get one by "the issues of the mo ment, but it has bitter and evil consequences." Acheson made his statement after senators had questioned Him and top departmental aides all morning about the depart ment's personnel loyalty pro gram. The loyalty issue has been rais ed by Sen. Joseph R. McCarthy, R., Wis., who has charged that there are at least 57 communists in the department. A foreign rela tions sub-committee has been or dered by the senate to investigate the charges. The foreign relations group has been empowered to subpoena the state department's loyalty files.
