FEPC Bill Wins
Washington, July 30 The
. administration bill for a perma
k.nent federal employment prac-
ticei law (FEPC) advanced a ma
jor step in congress Friday.
The house labor committee ap
proved FEPC by a reported vote
of 14 to 11 and sent it to the
house for possible action at this
session.
The bill came out of commit
tee unchanged, and retaining the
"teeth" provided by its enforce
ment feature. This feature,
strongly opposed by southern
democrats, permits a federal
commission to issue cease and re
sist orders against discrimina
tory practices in employment
and labor organizations.
It is the administration's long
delayed bill for creation of a fed
eral fair employment practices
law (FEPC) to prohibit discrim
ination in employment and la
bor unions because of race, re
ligion, color or national origin.

Communists in China
May Set Half World Afire
San Francisco, July SO (U.R) Communism in China will even
tually go the way of all other imported philosophies, but in
the meantime the 4,500,000 men under arms and under Red lead
ership may succeed in setting fire to half the world, the Common
wealth Club of California was told here today by Frank H.
Bartholomew, vice president of
the United Press.
"President LI Tsung-Jen told
me at Canton last month that he
had twice proposed to Com
munist Leader Mao Tse-Tung a
proportionate reduction of both
the nationalist and communist
armies, and had twice been re
fused," Bartholomew reported.
"There is only one reason for
the maintenance by Mao of the
largest army in the world, Li
(who is himself a four-star gen
eral) said. It won't take four
, and a half million men to cap-r-
lure Canton. The Red army is
maintained at full strength for
a march across China's borders
southward Into the French and
Dutch areas.
In Hard Straits
"Britian's Hong Kong is cer
tain to fall unless Britain can
trade herself out with the com
munists. Li predicted, and said
that the United States would
require rare good luck to escape
involvement in an Asian con
flict that might inevitably con
cern our commitments to Japan
and the Philippines.
"The Marshall Plan, said Li,
is like a dike around Europe. If
it protects Europe from the poi
soned flood waters welling up
from Moscow, it will only be at
the expense of diverting the
tide acorss Asia.
"The flood of communism is
already ereeping Into the most
thickly populated areas of the

Housewives Picket
Town's Sin Joints
Gary, Ind., July 30 (U.R)
About 100 Gary housewives, de
termined to rid the steel town
of sin and vice, paraded as pick
ets before 17 bawdy houses and
bookie joints.
Despite the 96-degree heat,
the women vowed to continue
their picketing until lawless ele
ments were driven from the city.
And though they sometimes
partook of refreshments offered
by the prorietors they picketed
they steadfastly refused to- en
ter the establishments to cool
off in their air-conditioned at
mospheres.
The pickets were members of
the Women's Citizens committee
organized last spring when a
school teacher, Mary Cheever,
was slain brutally In an alley.
They contend that thieves and
murderers have been attracted
to the city by wide-open gam
Ming and prostitution. They
staged an all-out fight to clamp
a lid on the city last spring but
the campaign subsided after of
ficials promised to clean the city
up.
The women charge that the
officials failed to do so.

Li pleaded for aid from the
United States on a basis of Am

paperman said.
Won't Retreat
"As long as I am head of the
Chinese republic we will never
retreat to Formosa and leave
our southern borders open for
the communists to march into
French Indo-China and the
Netherlands Indies, Li told' me,"
Bartholomew said. "We will
fall back to Chungking, into a
naturally defensive area, and
try to do our part by holding a
protective corridor parallel to
China's south border."
Li strongly criticised Chiang
Kai-Shek's apparent intention to
abandon the Chinese mainland
to its fate and establish the
national capital on Formosa,
Bartholomew said. And predic
ted that a showdown on the
point would develop almost im
mediately as the Red armies
steadily approached Canton.

Deadline Set
The second spray or dust for
filbert worm control should be
applied before August 4, accord
ing to Dr. B. G. Thompson, en
tomologist at Oregon State col
lege. Thompson reports heavy moth
emergence and egg laying on Ju
ly 27-28. Since filbert moth eggs
hatch in about eight days, Aug
ust 4 is the deadline for spray
ing or dusting to kill the lar
vae before they enter the fil
berts.
The same materials as used in
the first spray or dust are re
commended. For spraying, grow
ers may use either three pounds
lead arsenate to 100 gallons of
water or two pounds of 50 per
cent wettable DDT to 100 gal
lons of water.
For growers following a dust
program, a 40 percent lead ar
senate or a 5 percent DDT-dust
applied at the rate of 40 to 50
pounds per acre is recommend
ed. Where DDT is used, it is sug
gested that the ground beneath
the trees be well sprayed or
dusted also. Regardless of what
insecticide is used, thoroughness
of application is n e c essary.
Thompson reminds growers that
the only feeding done by the lar
vae before they enter the nuts
is on the undersides of the
leaves.
A combination spray is recom
mended for those growers hav
ing a worm and blight problem.

carried on by Dr. P. W. Miller,
plant pathologist of the U.S.

French Ratify
Atlantic Pact
Paris, July 30 P) The upper
house of the French parliament
ratified the Atlantic pact, 284-
20, Friday.
The lower house had previ
ously ratified it. The treaty
now goes to President Vincent
Aunol for formal ratification.
The motion of approval also
called on the United States to
back the treaty with arms,
It asked the French govern
ment to "use all its authority to
obtain the furnishing from the
United States government of
armaments and modern equip
ment indispensible to the French
armies in effectively filling the
obligations of defense and aid
under the Atlantic pact."
This request took the place of
a demand by General De
Gaulle's brother, Pierre, that
would have conditioned ap
proval on an American guaran
tee of arms.
The 20 opposition votes were
cast by communists and their af
filiates. The Bahamas exported more
than 2,500,000 pounds of toma
toes last season.

Earlier Days Recalled in
Letter From Gaylord Cooke
By BEN MAXWELL
Gaylord W. Cooke, once a Capital Journal compositor and
popular among the younger set
1890s, has written friends that he soon will leave Fairmont Hos
pital at San Leandro, Calif., and expects to re-establish himself
so soon as his son can find him a suitable place to go.
Mr. Cooke mentions having'
started to school in Salem in,
1878 (probably at Big Central)
and names Ossian Shirley and
Etta Calvert as being in the
same grade and graduating from
high school with him.
(Beginning about 1888 the
ninth and 10th grades were of
fered at East school and these
upper grades were called high
school.)
Other schoolmates mentioned
are Jessie Creighton and Delia
Payne, along with Milton Mey
ers who, Mr. Cooke relates,
joined the class about 1882.
Hotels Listed
Some of the historical articles
published in Salem papers are
wrong in respect to dates, and
others, says Mr. Cooke, tell only
part of the story. There were
more than two hotels in Salem
in 1852, he says, and goes on to
relate that E. N. Cooke was
proprietor of the Mansion house
which stood at Liberty and
Division streets. His father and
mother lived there after their
marriage in Portland, August 4
1852.
Mr. Cooke mentions that when
he was compositor on the Capi
tal Journal, Fred Lockley was
pressman and Walter Williams,
foremanr Flora Spriggs was
also on the staff.
Gaylord W. Cooke, who left
Salem more than 50 years ago,
was one of six children in the
family of Joseph Cooke, Oregon
pioneers of the early 1850s. For
many years the family lived on

Belle W. Cooke, who came to
Oregon in 18S1 at the age of 17,
lived in Salem for many years.
She was first a teacher at the
old Oregon Institute and later
became one of Salem's early
music teachers. She is more
particularly distinguished as
poetess, though her "Tears and
Victory," published in Salem by
E. M. Waite in 1871 is now rare

copies of these poems now in ex
istence are cherished items
sought by book collectors. Belle
Cooke died at Newberg January

NEW SET OF VALUES NEEDED
Barbara Stanwyck Blames
Gimmes of Single Girls
By PATRICIA CLARY
Hollywood (U.R) Barbara Stanwyck says the reason a million
single women today can't get husbands is that they concentrate
on gimme, gimme, gimm'e.
"Women have only themselves to blame for most of their
troubles," says Miss Stanwyck, who is happily married to Robert
Taylor. "They want to be '
mounted on a solid gold pedes-.
tal. They care about nothing
but gimme, I gotta have, I want.
"Some girls ought to get
themselves a new set of values."
Miss Stanwyck, who is star
ring at Paramount in "File on
Theima Jordon," a Hal Wallis
picture, says a marriage must
be founded firmly in affection
and respect.
"If I were a man today," she
said, "I'd think not twice but
five or six times before taking
the plunge. Too many gents
have already been taken to the
cleaners.
"The little nest a girl talks
about turns out to be an air
