hopes were abandoned when the
average grower noticed the
nymphs or young spittle bugs on
his plants a few days ago. There
appeared to be as many as usual
and feeding had started.

Mill Workers
Out on Strike
Several Salem woodworking
plants were among 40 in the
state, involving about 1000 em
ployes, that were closed Tues
day in a union-management ar
gument over wages.
The Salem plants included
Oregon Sash & Door, Salem
Willamette Supply and the mill
working plan of Keith Brown
Building Supply, Reinholdt &
Lewis were not closed although
it is a union operation.
The Millmen's union is ask
ing a wage increase of 1714
cents an hour above the present
top scale of $1.77 "i. They offer
the argument that they alone
of the building trades have not
had a pay increase, and want
a new contract to replace the old
one that expired March 1.
No pickets have been post
ed at the idle Salem plants.
J M. Scudder, attorney for the
Woodwork Employers' associa
tion, said all of the association
planing mills would close be
cause the AFL Millmen's union
struck the Cassady Fixture
Works in Portland.
In Portland Herman Schmunk,
ur.ion secretary, said the Brooks
Showcase plant in Portland shut
down in what he called a lock
out.
Scudder said the scale is 10
cents above that in Seattle and

has made an outstanding rec-
ord, locally and nationally in
the Red Cross. From 1940 to
1942, Mrs. Arneson was a vol
unteer worker, teaching home
nursing classes for the Red
Cross chapter here. In October
of 1942 she became a paid staff
member to direct the nursing
services, this work including re-
cruitment and Instruction for
nurses aides, home nursing, the
war-time blood program, the re
cruitment of nurses for the arm
ed services; and since the war
continuance of the home nurs
ing program, assistance with the
peace-time blood program, and
recruitment of nurses, both for
the student training and for the
armed services.
During the war the Marion
county chapter ot the Red Cross
received a citation of merit from
the U.S. civilian defense office
for maintaining a large number
of nurses aides and for having
the largest number of volunteer
hours, per capita. In that period
there were 373 nurses aides,
giving 66,919 hours of volun
teer service.
Since 1942, some 1500 per
sons have received training in
home nursing in Marion county
through the Red Cross program,
the total including girls in var
ious high schools as well as
adults.
In 1947-48 when the polio
epidemic was so bad in various
sections of the west, Mrs. Arne
son recruited 10 nurses to go
from Marion county to assist in
the nursing care of the polio
patients.
Recently, Mrs. Arneson was
appointed secretary-treasurer of
the Oregon state board of nurse
examiners. In 1947 she had
been appointed a member of
that board for a three-year term
by the late Gov. Earl Snell.
Local Red Cross officials ex
pressed regret, Tuesday, that
Mrs. Arneson was leaving the
office but stated they realized
she was entitled to take advan
tage of other opportunities in
her field of work.

Hoover Report
Assurances that Oregon's del
egation in the national capital
will give every consideration to
the Hoover commission's report
concerning the reorganization of
bureaus and agencies and the el
imination of such organizations,
have been received at the Salem
Kiwanis club. The club, several
weeks ago wired Senators Guy
Cordon and Wayne Morse, Rep
resentatives Walter Norblad and
Harris Ellsworth and President
Truman, urging adoption of the
Hover commission recommenda
tions.
"There is no doubt about the
fact that one of the crying needs
of our government today is t
thorough administrative over-
hauling along the lines of the
Hoover commission," replied
Senator Morse. He added that
"as is my policy on matters of
this kind, I shall not make a fi
nal commitment until I have had
an opportunity (o make a thor
ough report."
"The support of all thoughtful
citizens is needed in order to ac
complish the objectives sought in
the creation of the commission
on organization," wrote William
D. Hassett, secretary to the pres
ident.
"The problem confronting us
in considering legislation which
would give the president general
authority to reorganize the ex
ecutlve agencies in that we have
no assurance that he will adopt
the Hoover commission recom
mendations in full or in part,
replied Senator Cordon.

County Budget
(continued from page I)
It was plain from discussion
had that it is the intention of the
committee to slash enough to
come within the 6 percent limit
and not have a surplus which
would have to go before the peo
pie to vote upon.
3255,000 Increase
The budget as it came up to
the committee showed requests
about $255,000 in excess of last
year's budget or $243,844 out of
balance as to the 6 percent Urn
it. This is alleviated somewhat
by legislative action in road mat
ters which take up as an $85,000
slack or which throws it actually
out of balance $158,844 and
committee members showed de
termination to lop off this am
ount in small or large bits as
they may be found to get inside
the limit.
The committee Is expected to
be in session two or three days
with a considerable number of
hearings already set.

Growers Reminded
Of Protection Spray
D. L. Rasmussen, county ex
tension agent, reminds cherry
growers to maintain a protection
spray or dust cover on their
trees even though the weather
has been very favorable during

Since most trees art in the pe
tal fall stage, growers can pro
tect against brown rot with the
same fungicide used during the
popcorn and full bloom sprays
or dusts.
Lead arsenate Is recommen
ded for syneta beetle control
during the petal fall stage. Lead
arsenate can be added to the
fungicide spray being used for
brown rot control.
