of England 1500 years ago, is tested near Copenhagen.
Rent Decontrol Demanded
n Resolution by Council
moved that the matter be tabled
until results of the survey are
known. The motion lost.
Voting against the decontrol
resolution were Gille, Niolson
and O'Hara.
On reconsideration, moved by Alderman Tom Armstrong, the
ity council Monday night reversed itself and adopted a resolu
Ition asking for decontrol oi. rents in baiem.
The resolution will now go to uovernor uougias MCft.ay, ana
ml approved by him will be forwarded to the housing expediter
Slin Washington, who presumaoiy
Iwould decontrol the area if no ir
regularities in procedure were
found. Council action has to
do only with rents in the city,
but decontrol of the entire area
would follow decontrol in the
city.
i Salem property owners, de
manding decontrol, were repre
sented by Louis DuBuis, who
isaid the apartment owners did
not want to increase rents, but
ithat "we are getting tired of
jbeing run from elsewhere."
Ray Albers, attorney for the
housing expediter, predicted
'that rents would go up "at least
50 per cent" when control is
(taken off.
! The whole question, he said.
Jwas one of whether the housing
situation can be met. He warned
the council by saying that if
control is lifted by the expediter,
on recommendation of the local
advisory committee, it can be
restored if it is found a mistake
has been made, "but if lifted
by local option, as you propose
to do, it can never be put back."
"We all know," he said, "that
the reason decontrol is being
asked is so rents can be raised.
Otherwise they wouldn't be ask
ing for it."
He said a survey of the hous
ing situation had been made
here, but the results not yet
made public. Alderman Gille
Methods of Transmission
Of Polio Subject of Talk
The subject of transmission of poliomyelitis and the matter of
whether or not public gatherings should be prohibited should
an outbreak of polio occur were discussed at a recent meeting of
officials of the Marion county chapter, National Paralysis Founda
tion, Inc. :
Medical representatives on the
committee discussed extensive
ly the mode of transmission.
Pointing to recent large epi
demics in the middle west and
south they reported evidence of
transmission from one person
to another by direct contact is
strikingly absent, and, they add
ed, studies reveal attendants,
by airplane spraying.
In further discussion it was
pointed out many research proj
ects are being carried on con
tinually in trying to find the
nurses and other professional
people almost never acquire it
from their contact with those
stricken.
The medical representatives
repeatedly pointed out that
spread of the disease is not
stopped by prohibiting public
gatherings or staying away from
swimming pools or killing flies

HUSBANDS OUGHT TO BE BABIED?
Women Should Give Up Seats
So Men Could Live Longer?
By PATRICIA CLARY
Hollywood (U.R) California women are getting a good laugh
over Dr. Morris Fishbein's statement that women should give
up their seats on streetcars so men can live longer.
A California man is healthy enough to stand up by himself, and
no California woman wants a man who isn't.
You Chicago girls can keepS
Dr. Fishbein. You can keep him
as long as you want to stand up
and give him your seat.
The doctor, editor of the Jour
nal of the American Medical as
sociation, claims women are bio
chemically more durable than
men. Consequently, they have to
baby the poor dears to keep
them living long enough to sup
port them.
Movie Director Lloyd Bacon,
whose hobby is home movies,
Hook out a camera to record how
this theory goes over with Hol
lywood dames. It fell flat.
l Men should live longer, one
'lady told Bacon.
"And the best way for them
to HVe longer," she added, "is
not to come around expecting
me to stand up so they can sit
down."
"Most of the older women op
posed the suggestion in princi
ple, action and angry words,"
Bacon said, shuddering in me
mory. "They said, in not very
nice language, that Dr. Fishbein
is barking up the wrong tree.
"Younger women are more
tolerant. They're willing to
stand up if a man looks like he
needs to sit down."
A stenographer said she of
fered her seat on buses and trol
leys to anyone who is loaded
down with groceries or looks
wearier than she does.
"I have even given up my seat
to big strong-looking men who
looked like they had been work
ing hard all day," she said.
One teen-ager was willing to
stand up "if the fella was cute."
Another . young thing said
she'd give up a street car seat on
two conditions if Van Johnson
or Gregory Peck asked for it.
Bacon shot the film just for
fun while waiting to start work
on "The Good Humor Man." He
plans no commercial release.
