Highway Travel to Eastern
Oregon Very Difficult
Highway travel between Portland and eastern Oregon was
extremely' difficult today, with the highway on the Washington
side of the Columbia river closed east of Washougal, and the
Columbia river highway on the
Oregon side limited to motorists
who use chains.
The entire Columbia river
highway from Portland to Ida
ho, was in worst conditions,
while most mountain passes
were made hazardous by new

Wheat Demand
Exceeds Supply
Chicago, Dec. 21 (U.BThe
government acreage report In
terpreted bullishly by grainmen
prompted a five-cent jump in
rye futures on the board of
trade today. Oats moved un
evenly, and other grains were
dull but firm.
Rye finished the day up A to
5 cents a bushel; wheat unchang
ed to up ; corn unchanged;
oats up 1 to 114, and barley
unchanged.
Grain circles regarded the rye
acreage at 3,721,000 acres com
pared with this year's 4,476,000
and the 10-year average of 6,
291,000 as distinctly bullish and
a short-covering movement im
mediately reversed the down
turn of yesterday.
The winter wheat report gen
erally was in line with trade
expectations with acreage stand
ing at 51,940.000 or 1,800,000
acres larger than last season.
Production was estimated at
750,739,000 bushels against
823,177.000 produced this year.
Demand for wheat for deficient
countries was expected to ex
ceed supply by millions of
bushels.
Grainmen noted that France
bought an undisclosed quantity
of U.S. wheat for shipment in
January today.
Motors Strike
Deadlocked
(Bt t-lie AffBvClnlfrt Pr.sO
The lengthy wage controver
y between General Motors and
the CIO united auto workers
union appeared headed for an
other showdown today, in the
wake of President Truman's de
cision that company financial
records are relevant in wage
disputes.
Top ranking officials of the
corporation and the union, in
Washington for hearings by the
government fact-finding board
studying the nation's major la
bor problem, prepared to con
fer in an attempt to agree on a
basis for resumption of collect
ive bargaining on strike issues.
Some 200,000 GM employes have
been Idle for one month, fol
lowing a strike In support of the
union's demand for a 30 percent
wage rate increase.
The GM panel was to resume
hearings late today, having re
cessed to study Mr. Truman's
statement, which said that fact
finding boards Investigating la
bor disputes "should unques
tionably have Ihe right to ex
amine the employer's books."
Later Mr. Truman told a news
conference that boards also
hould have power to examine
a labor union's books.
The authority of the fact
finding boards to consider prof
Its and prices in connection with
wage increase demands had

Tire Rationing
Oil January 1
Washington, Dec. 21 U.fi-Tiie
rationing will end at 12:01 a.m.
January 1, the OPA announced
last night. This will leave only
sugar on the rationing list.
Tire slocks were frozen De
cember 8, 1941, and rationing
began January 5, 1942.
Under the program 57,000,000
new passenger car tires norm
ally a 20 months' replacement
supply kept almost 24,000,000
passenger cars rolling for four
war years.
OPA said that holders of tire
purchase certificates will have
11 days to turn in their certifi
cates to dealers. This will enable
dealers to supply them before
rationing ends.
After December 21 no addi
tional certificates will be issued
except in emergency cases. OPA
tire rationing panels will stay
on the job, however, until Janu
ary 1 to handle emergency needs
of applicants who cannot wait
until then for new tires.
Passenger tire production this
quarter reached 11,000,000. CPA
and OPA had agreed that ra
tioning could be lifted when it
reached that level. CPA Chief
John D. Small estimated that
66,000,000 passenger tires will
bo needed in 1946.
CPA will continue to restrict
spare tires for new cars, as well
as white sidewall tires and tires
for export to assure motorists
the maximum number of re
placements. The OPA will con
tinue to control prices.

Apple Export
License Rapped
Washington, Dec. 1 VP) Li
censes to export apples are be
ing unfairly distributed, Rep.
Holmes (R. Wash.) charged to
day in a letter to Secretary of
Commerce Wallace,
The agriculture department
set a quota of 1,125,700 bushels
of this year'j apple crop that
could be exported by firms
which previously have exported
apples to foreign countries. Li
censes were issued by the old
foreign economic administra
tions whose duties have been
transferred to the commerce de
partment. "I am alarmed over the Infor
mation which has come to me
indicating these licenses have
been inequitably distributed,"
Holmes wrote. "The information
is to the effect that one firm ob
tained a license for approximate
ly 400,000 bushels. Added to
this situation is the startling
fact that the firm never had any
history in fruit export. In fact,
they have been exporters of el
ectrical equipment and appli
ances. "Such mal-dislribution with
apparent disregard to the firm's
history is depriving old line
concerns not only of export li
censes but even it granted a li
cense, of an allocation that
would permit them practically
no business."
The representative said that
Washington state firms were
prevented from exporting ap
ples. Holmes told Wallace the
situation probably would be
taken before a house committee
for investigation of food short
ages. Fad Finding
Rules Defined
Washington, Dec. 21 W) The
administration laid down spe
cific rules and policies today
giving the government fact
finding boards broad authority
to recommend wage increases
which may or may not result in
price increases.
At the same time, the boards
were cautioned that, in propos
ing any wage increases, any in
dividual fact finding panel must
"satisfy itself" that employers
could or could not absorb the
additional cost at prevailing
prices.
In reaching ils decision, the
"panel must necessarily inquire
into the issue of the employer's
ability to pay," the fact find
ers were told. However, the
policy statement pointed out,
"ability to pay is a limitation
on and does not necessarily
constitute a measure of the
amount of fair increases."
Shortly after the statement
was issued by Secretary of La
bor Schwellenbach, the oil
wage fact finding board an
nounced its adjournment until
January 7 at the request of
several of the oil companies in
volved. The recess was taken to al
low the companies and the CIO
oil workers' union to resume
collective bargaining, on a
plant-by-plant basis, over the
30 percent wage increase de
manded by the union. Attorneys
for Socony-Vacuum, Standard
Oil of Ohio, and the Atlantic
Refining company, said they
would use the time to bargain
with the union and that in some
cases the negotiations already
were underway.

One Man War
On Petrillo
Ann Arbor, Mich., Dec. 21 (U.m
Dr. Joseph Maddy, director
of the national music camp at
Interlochen, Mich., said today
that he intends to wage a one
man war against James Caesar
Petrillo, president of the Amer
ican Federation of Musicians
(AFL) to retain his membership
in the union.
Formal charges have been
filed that Dr. Maddy's work at
Interlochen is "detrimental" to
the union. He has been ordered
to appear before the executive
board in Chicago January IS to
show cause why he should not
be expelled.
The director said the union
has no jurisdiction over his ac
tivities at Interlochen.
"I've been a member of the
union for "37 years, longer than
Petrillo has." Dr. Maddy ex
claimed. "The union has no
right under its own constitu
tions and bylaws to prevent me
from teaching at Interlochen.
Hi said that the latest devel
opment is the result of an "un
fair ruling based on false
charges" made by Petrillo. Last
January 15, the union banned
its members from "teaching
coaching or playing at Inter
lochen." This was the result. Dr.
Maddy claimed, of his criticism
of Petrillo's leadership in the
union.

Generalissimo Chiang Kai-Shek
-
personal welcome at the air
port by Chiang was interpreted
as a fulsome gesture of friend
ship by China's ruler.
Many thought that the gener
alissimo, following protocol in
such matters, would await the
American general at his offi
cial residence inside of this
walled city, soon to resume its
status of the peacetime capital
of China.
Instead, two minutes after
General Marshall stepped from
his glistening C-54 plane, after
a half hour flight from Shang
hai, a large black sedan pulled
onto the field and Chiang, im
pressive in his undecorated, long
olive green cape, emerged from
the car.
Marshall, in uniform and
wearing the five stars of his
rank, saw the Chinese leader
at once and they strode toward
each other, smiling. They sa
luted, then clasped hands
warmly.
"Tell him I am deeply hon
ored," Marshall said to Chiang's
personal chief of staff. Gen.
Shang Chen, acting interpreter.
Chiang's reply was: "I wel
come you to Nanking."
Marshall left Shanghai this
morning. His plane was fol
lowed by one bearing 30 cor
respondents and photographers.
Jap Schools
Teaching War
Tokyo, Dec. 21 (U.R) Allied
investigators at Matsuyama, on
the Japanese home island of Shi
koku, have found Japanese
school children still receiving
military training, Gen. MacAr
thur's headquarters announced
today. Patrols discovered "large
stores" of wooden training rifles,
sabres, . spears and bayonets
stacked in elementary school
houses, the announcement said.
The Investigators also found
propaganda books, maps and
charts among text books used by
sixth grade classes.
The report from Shikoku said
that the investigators witnessed
students in military formations
directed by a Japanese in army
uniform. The report did not say
whether the instructor was tak
en into custody.
Ona group of Investigators
found wooden bayonets and rif
les stacked In classrooms in one
school while outside, in the
school yard, they found an ob
stacle course and straw dum
mies used for bayonet practice.
The equipment has been des
troyed and further searches are
continuing, the report said.
Taxi Hold Up
tuonnmieq irom page I)
it turned east to North Com
mercial, then north to Gaines
and stopped. The robber or
dered Colvin to stop the cab on
Gaines at the alley between
Front and Commercial. He
turned on the dome light,
reached across the front seat
and took the ignition key.
"You stay in this cab," he told
Colvin.
Colvin told police the pair
got out and went to the waiting
coupe and he saw them get in
with the driver, apparently a
man. The coupe went north on
Commercial and Colvin went to
the Terminal Ice & Cold Stor
age plant where he called po
lice headquarters.
The cab driver said the man
appeared to be about 20 years
old, wore sailor trousers, brown
coat and hat. The gun, a blue
steel automatic, was a .38, he
thought. The woman was 17
or 18, wore a dark blue coat
and blue slacks, and a white
bandada over her hair. She
was cool, said Colvin, the man
nervous with the gun. They
seemed to be familiar with the
run of the streets.
About $27 was taken from
Colvin.
In the first robbery, reported
Thursday, the victim was Neil
Anderson, also a driver for Sa
lem Taxi Service, who lost
about the same amount as Col
vin. The cab was taken by
the two men, but later found
by another cab driver, Frank
Snook, at Church and Center.
The two men, who appeared to
be around 30 and 35 years old,
were picked up in front of the
Senator hotel at 12:30 a.m. and
the hold-up occurred on Fourth,
near Locust.
