16 THE CAPITAL JOURNAL. SALEM. OREGON THURSDAY, JUNE 21, 1934 SEEK REPEAL OF RESTAURANT MARKET CODE Portland, June 21 UP) Dissension lthln the ranks of restaurant operators, particularly In Portland, over the provisions of the market ing agreement for the Industry as established under the Oregon agri cultural adjustment act adopted by the last legislature, became appar ent here today as one group sought repeal of the rule.

It has been noticeable that costlier Items have not met sale response, but In an Item like fresh prunes where the the agreement. Hie law provides the there Is every indication that a very While definite figures are not available, a sort of birds- eye picture can be had of the mam fruit pack in canneries here for the part of the season now just finishing. While Etterberg strawberries, one tune a. governor may do this if 75 per cent 01 the industry so demands. Those opposing the agreement Insist it Is unfair, unjust and un reasonable; that sufficient regula tion from a sanitation, wage and welfare standpoint Is afforded by existing state and city laws, and that "the latitude given the board fts such that no one with ordinary good business Judgment would en dorse it." On the other hand, Grover Ee tentlsch, managing director of the code agreement declared that oppo sition to the code Is coming only from representatives of "beer joints" to whom the dispensing of food Is secondary matter, and that res taurants which serve beer only as A complement to their food dispen sing business have Indorsed the agreement. Rebentlsch said the principal pro visions in the agreement are: the restaurant board shall formulate and prescribe with the a)roval of the secretary, minimum standards of cleanliness and sanitation; no restaurateur shall serve food or bev crages at a price less than twice the actual cost to him; no item shall be advertised at a price less than twice the actual cost to the res taurateur; no Item of food or por tion thereof previously served to another person shall be served again; no restaurateur shall use ad vertising which is Inaccurate in any material particular. Elston Ireland, Portland, is chairman of the state board; C. A. Relbel, Grants Pass, Is vice chair man; P. A. Brown, Salem, is sec retary, and Prank Winters, Port land, is treasurer.

Norway.-June 31 WV- A young officer was singled out to day as the hero of the wreck of the nazl excursion steamer Dres den, In which four women died and many passengers were Injured. The steamer, carrying 1,000 Ger man nazls on a holiday jaunt, was knifed by a rock last night In the shallow Hardanger Pjord. The Dresden, 14,000-ton ship of the North German Lloyd line, sank at 7 a. m. today with only part of her bow showing above water. Captain Moller, all of the ship's officers, and a Norwegian pilot re mained aboard the stricken Dresden until 3 a. m., at which time the ship had a 30 degree list and six feet of water In the holds. She was anchored to the shore with heavy chains before she went down, so there Is hope that she can be salvaged. In the wild panic that ensued, 20 women were lowered to the water In a lifeboat; it drifted too close to the whirling propellors and cap sized, i Three women were lostv and a fourth snatched from the churning waters, died soon afterward from her Injuries. Another lifeboat, also carrying 30 women, was being lowered when the gear broke and the occupants were flung into the sea. The young officer, diving boldly from the third deck of the steam ship, swam to the rescue of the women, encouraging them and sup porting the weakest untu a boat came to his aid. But for his heroism, the survivors of the wreck said, the death toll would have mounted much higher. His name was not made known. TELLS EMPLOYES TO QUIT OFFICES Washington, June 31 (IP) Declar ing treasury employes "can't work for Uncle Sam and a political party both," Secretary of the Treasury Henry Morgenthau, Jr today called on all employes under his Jurisdic tion to "relinquish all political party offices at once." "It has been demonstrated," said Morgenthau In a letter to treasury department heads, "that holding of a political party office Is not com patible with the public interest and will hamper an officer or employe In the discharge of his governmental duties." The secretary said his letter was prompted by discovery of Instances of solicitations of contributions for political purposes. The treasury, he said, has received inquiries from employes as to legality and propri ety of their continuing to hold of fice In regular political party organ izations. "I have considered this matter very carefully," he said, "and I have come to the firm conviction that no officer or employe of the treasury department ought to continue to hold any political party office." He said he notified all depart ment heads to advise employes that those who hold such political party offices, must submit their resigna tions not later than September 1, 1034, or submit their resignation from the treasury department.

The brine pack was probably only about one third of last year. In loganberlres a little heavier pack was put up than last year but considerably below the average for those berries. While In the barelled strawberry line 35 per cent of the berries were probably left unused because of the curtailment program, the total bar rei pack is estimated at sllgntly over last year. Gooseberries started off the sea son. They are a small Item but what gooseberries available were packed and probably showed aoout an average quantity. The raspberry canned pack was about normal. Red raspberries are a small item here and the pack of those is not yet completed. Black raspberries, which appeared about normal crop, are cutting a little oeiow the expectations but very nearly a normal pack Is being put up. The mountain or cultivated black berries are being put Into the larg est pack ever made of those ber ries here and In the main they are going Into barrels to be used later for fruit products, although a Dret- ty fair pack of them Is going Into me oarrejs lor pies and similar purposes.

LAKE SEARCHED FOR 3 YOUTHS Chicago, June 31 (IP) Pour coast guard cutters and a fleet of private craft searched Lake. Michigan un avalllngly today for two boys and a gin swept oiisnore in two small boats by tornadic winds. The storm brought death to one man at Monroe, Wis., and demol ished small buildings throughout northern Illinois and southern Wis consin. Missing on the sparkling and al most waveless lake after a night of fury were Miss Ruth Hatch, 35, Roy Gustafson, 24, and Richard Ludlow, 19. Miss Hatch and Gustafson had not been seen since they embarked for an all-day sail at 10 a. m. yes terday In the youth's 16-foot dinghy, The Vivian. Ludlow presumably was blown from a rowboat during the first squall of the gale. His companion in the boat. Jack Hughes, 23, reported the wind struck the small shell with such force that an oar was wrested from his hands. He leaped Into the water to retrieve it. When he regained the boat a moment later Ludlow had disappeared. Unable to climb into the wildly pitching craft, Hughes swam the short distance to shore. The 60-mlle and hour wind, sev ering electric power and communi cations lines and causing heavy property damage In Milwaukee, Chicago and several other cities. caused the death of Joseph S. Ohl, 63, when a tree fell on his auto mobile In Monroe, Wis. Rain which accompanied the gale brought temporary relief from a heat wave which sent the mcrcurv yesterday to 103 in Kenosha, Wis., 103 In Kansas City and 100 at Peoria. Washington, June 21 HP) Smart ing under criticism heaped on it while It flew the air mall, the army air corps is planning a spectacular massed flight from Washington to Nome, Alaska "to prove Its flying ability," it was revealed today. Detailed plans have not been drawn up but the flight will have three primary objectives: 1. To demonstrate massed flying abilities of army air corps pilots who had only a modicum of success In flying the air mail. 3. Good wlu promotion between the United States and Canada. 3. A thorough testing of the effi ciency of the 12 Martin bombers to be flown. It Is understood 40 pilots, air corps officers and men will partici pate In the flight. Brig. Gen. Oscar Westover, as sistant chief of the air corps, has been suggested to lead the flight but It has not been definitely decided whether he will do so. The exact Itinerary remains to be worked out. The tentative plans call for one or two stops in Canada and the state department is con sulting the Canadian government for landing authorization and co operation. When Postmaster General James A. Farley cancelled commercial air mail contracts last winter and the army was delegated to fly the malls it met with numerous disasters, Charges and counter - charges flew thick and fast.. Commercial and Industrial leaders, congressmen, senators and persons high In public life, denounced Farley, charging the army wasn't properly equipped to carry the malls. The air corps itself was not pleased with Its demonstration and few outspoken officials flatly de clared corps equipment was anti quated. It also was pointed out that some army aviators were not trained sufficiently for night fly inga necessary requirement in air mall flying. S.P.O.L.
