County Commissioner Roy Rice states that arrangements are being made with the state highway department for the state to furnish the county 70 tons of cold patch material for repairing county oiled roads. The state has set up a plant for moving cold 'patch for its own purposes at tne Walling lo cation in Morningside and the material for the county will he mixed there, using up about two days of the plant's time. The cold patch material makes it possible to repair chuckholes in oiled roads during the win ter, something which can't be done by use of the hot process.

Start Drive for Co-op Hospital A good crowd Tuesday night heard Michael Shadid tell of his experiences in starting his Community hospital at Elk City, Okla., the nation's first cooperative hospital. Dr. Shadid is in the Willamette valley for three week s stay during which he will make numerous appear ances under the auspices of the Oregon Farmers' Union on be half of the proposed community health center in Salem. Tues day's meeting marked the kick off in a campaign for member ships in the health center which will be open to everyone. It is hoped to raise at least $50 000 for a completely equipped clinic. Memberships will be limited to 2000 families. Dr. Shadid said President Truman had made part of his speech for him in his message to congress Monday urging a complete national health pro gram, financed by compulsory health insurance. But he point ed out that self-help, through a cooperative owned by the peo ple using it, was a still better method of meeting health needs. He assailed the American Med ical association for its stand against group medicine, on a prepaid basis, despite a major ity report made in 1934 by one of its own committees headed by Dr. Ray Lyman Wilbur which urged approval of group medicine. Lyle Thomas, Polk county legislator and field man for the Oregon State Farmers' Union, outlined the program of the Na tional Farmers' Union before a meeting of the Salem Ministerial association at the First Presby terian church Tuesday morning. "Cooperatives distribute own ership of property among large numbers of our people" he said, "instead of concentrating wealth in the hands of a comparatively few."

Bakers Strike Hits Grocers San Francisco, Nov. 20 (IP) The 82 Safeway grocery stores in San Francisco were closed today as AFL Bakery Wagon Drivers picketed the stores and clerks refused to pass the picket lines. It was the first move in that direction to come from the 11 day-old tieup of major baking plants here. Milton Maxwell, head of the AFL Butchers' union, said mem bers of that union would not cross the picket lines but that they would remove perishable meats to storage if asked to do so. Last night a general walkout in grocery stores here was averted as employers approved a pay agreement granting clerks ?43 for a 40-hour week. Tney had been getting $4u for a SB hour week. The bakery drivers are de manding $70 a week. Employ ers have insisted they would not modify their $60 offer. The drivers now get $54.30. Wendell Phillips, secretary of the drivers' union, declared the picket lines were posted on the grounds Safeway had "locked out" the drivers by refusing to permit them to deliver bread to the 82 San Francisco Safeway chain stores. Claude Jinkerson, secretary of the Retail Grocery Clerks' union, said none of the union's 450 Safeway employes would go to work.

The contract, which differed in terms in some respect from terms set out in the city coun cil resolution, has not yet been returned from the company's headquarters at Covington, Ky., but is expected dally. One difference was that the resolution called for Installation of the meters within 65 days after signing of the contract, while the company terms were 75 days after receipt of contract by the company.

Thomas told reporters testi mony showed that the Greek government sold 7,000 UNRRA mules to farmers and "then used the proceeds to Improve the ag ricultural program in that coun try." McKellar said that UNRRA was "turning over food supplies to these governments and they are selling supplies for their own currency." "I want to find some way to stop that," said McKellar.

An employer member said the questions re flected the scope of the many tough problems being threshed out by the three-week-old con ference. Despite the complex job ahead, two spokesmen predicted that the conferenc called by President Truman to minimize industrial strife would come up with a procedural formula that will help achieve the goal. The optimistic forecasts came from President Eric Johnston of the U. S. Chamber of Com merce and Conference Secre tary George W. Taylor. Johnston disclosed that he had organized the conference "big six" into a steering com mittee to see that the other com mittees do not become hope lessly deadlocked on any Issue.
