county and West Salem in Polk
county.
In most cases the national ex
pediter, Tighe E. Woods, has
followed the recommendations
of governors where local option
has been used as in Salem.
Decontrol in Salem was pe
titioned for by the Salem Real
ty board and by the Salem chap
ter of the Home and Property
Owners association. It was
fought by organized labor, nu
merous tenants of rental units,
and by the Progressive party.
The city council, when it first
voted on the resolution, defeat
ed it. At the next meeting it
was reconsidered and adopted.
Governor McKay said recent
ly that he thought he should
be governed in rent control
cases by the opinion of the ad
ministration of the cities in
volved. He said his office re
ceived very little mail concern
ing Salem's rental situation. In
all his office had 20 letters, 11
favoring decontrol and nine ask
ing for continuance of control.

Judy Garland,
To Get Back Into Harness
By PATRICIA CLARY
United Press Hollywood Correspondent
Hollywood, Aug. 6 0J.R) A fat and sunburned Judy Garland
bounced back to movietown today ready to start fresh without
the tantrums that lost her two pictures and her paycheck.
"I feel better than I have in 10 years," the pug-nosed movie
queen said after two months rest and medical treatment. "I'm
really ready to start rollings
again
She has a dale Monday to tell
that to Louis B. Mayer, who
chopped her off the MGM pay
roll when she staged a one-woman
no-work strike. She hopes
he'll take her off an "allowance"
and put her on salary.
I want to get back to work.
she said after her suspension,
"even if I have to sweep up the
studio.
"I don't blame them for sus
pending me. I've been a bad girl
for not getting to work on time.
I realize they can't take chances
with careless people like me."
Miss Garland has been one of
the biggest boxoffice stars since
1936, but she's been sick almost
constantly for more than two
years. She looked wan and pale
in "The Pirate."" She lost Ginger

of Broadway" because of "ner
vous exaustion." And Mayer
tossed her out of "Annie Get
Your Gun" when she stormed off
the set in a huff.
There'll be no more of that
with the new Miss G.
"She had been pretty run
down," said her manager, Carle
ton Alsop. "But she's in fine
health now with quiet nerves."
The big-eyed star packed her
self off to a Boston hospital for
a rest and checkup. Then she,
Alsop, and his wife Sylvia Sid
ney vacationed on Cape Cod. It
was her first vacation in years.
"I learned to sleep all over
again," she said, "without sleep
ing pills."
After a month here, she will
have anouther two-week check
up. Then in October, she hopes,
Mayer will let her start a musi
cal, "Summer Stock."
Th first thing they'll tell
her is to get that weight off,"
Alsop grumbled. "I think it
looks good, and it's good for
her."
Judy's marital prospects are
looking up now, too. She an
nounced four months ago she
was divorcing director Vincente
Minnelli, but friends think now
they may reconcile.
"Vincente is the best friend,
she admitted, "that I have in
this world."
