For New York Mediation
Honolulu, Aug. 31 () Hawaiian employers 'pessimistically ac
cepted an invitation today to enter New York negotiations on
Sept. 7 to end the 123 day old dock strike.
Acceptance of federal mediator Cyrus Ching's Washington re
quest for September, meeting was voided by Chairman W. Russell
Cochabamba
Lost by Rebels
La Paz, Bolivia, Aug. 31 CP)
The Cochabamba radio re
ported that government forces
today recaptured Cochabamba,
which rightist rebels had. held
gince Saturday.
Troops under Gen. Ovidio
Quiroga took control of the reb
el stronghold, 150 miles south
east of La Paz, at 9 a.m. after
four days of fighting, the radio
announced.
The general staff said last
night that most of the resistance
In the city of 90,000 population
had been crushed, but that ac
tual occupation would be delay
ed until today to avoid "prob
able disturbances."
The revolt was led by the
national revolution party
(MNR) of the late Presidentc
Gualberto Villaroel, who was
hanged when his government
was overthrown in 1946.
(The Bolivian radio "Avaroa,"
heard in Lima, said the rebel
leaders fled by plane after the
Cochabamba defeat. It said they
were en route to Arequipa, Peru,
In a commercial transport plane

Tax Study Group
Study Spending
The newly appointed board of
control tax study committee to
day discussed ways and means
of cutting down even more on
state government agency spend
ing. The six man group, headed
by tax commission member Carl
Chambers, decided at their sec
ond regular meeting here today
that agency spending was the
place to start tightening up in
the general overhauling of the
Oregon tax structure now under
tudy.
Harry Dorman, state budget
director, said that the self-sustaining
departments customarily
spend all they take in. Depart
ments such as the game commls
sion add to their own special
Junds by the sale of licenses and
from fines, and feel free to
spend that income, he said.
Dorman favored considering
transferring any possible sur
plus above needs into the state
general fund for other uses.
The program would call for
revision of tax laws at the next
legislature where the committee
will make its recommendations.
It was- also pointed out that
general overhead expense in
state offices will be cut down
by consolidation of the offices
into the proposed new state of
fice buildings in Portland and
Salem.

dustry from a period as far back
as 6000 vcars aim tn flip nrpnpnt
and gave a good sales talk for

Amonff othpr thlnffjl. Tnhni.phl
claimed that the manufacture of
Deer was nothing more than con
tinuing the processes of nature,
that its use was not fattening,
that the industry was nnp nf flip
largest in the country and that
intelligent use of beer" was a
definite feature of our standard
of living.
Tabacchi stated that such no
table men as General Israel
Putnam, Samuel Adams and
George Washington were inter
ested in the manufacture of beer.
Moreover the larger estates fol
lowing the Revolutionary war
were well equipped for its pro
duction. On the statistical side Tabac
chi said that 41,000,000 million
pounds of hops went into beer
production in this country in
addition to 235 million pounds
of rice, 835 million pounds of
corn and two and a half billion
pounds of malt.

Union acceptance is assured.
A meeting of the CIO Longshore
men's and Warehousemen's
strike strategy committee will
be held today, spokesman Rob
ert McElrath said.
In a statement last midnight
Starr said:
'The strike is going to be set
tled on the money issue because
wages are the basic issue."
The ILWU struck on May 1
for a 32 cents an hour hike to
their $1.40 wage.
The money issue, Starr said,
"can be settled as well in Ha
waii as in New York, but since
Harry Bridges (union president)
has persistently refused to nego
tiate seriously in Hawaii and has
insisted that settlement can only
be reached outside Hawaii, we
have notified the U. S. concilia
tion service that our company
representatives will agree to go
to New York in yet another ef
fort to end the strike.
"We will be present for the
meeting with Mr. Ching and
Harry Bridges and his commit
tee at 3 p. m. Wednesday, Sep
tember 7.
"If by transferring negotia
tions to the east coast we can
get the ILWU seriously down
to work we are willing to try.
However, we do not approach
the prospect of New York talks
in optimism:
"Unless the union comes down
into a reasonable area of settle
ment, substantially below 14
cents (an hour increase) there
is no more promise of an end
to the strike in New York than
there is in Hawaii."

Alcohol Plant
Leased 3 Years
Washington, Aug. 31 VP)
Lease of an experimental indus
trial alcohol plant at Spring
field, Ore., to three Americus,
Ga., persons was announced to
day by the war assets division
of the general service adminis
tration. .
The wartime plant was leased
to Charles B. Hudson, Jr., Wil
liam S. Hudson and Mrs. W. E.
Mitchell for five years.
They plan to use the plant to
determine whether production
of industrial alcohol from wood
waste is practicable, war assets
said.
The plant cost the govern
ment about $3,000,000. The les
sees told war assets the cost of
rehabilitating is expected to be
between $250,000 and $300,000.
Terms of the lease are $100
rent a year for the first three
years while the plant is being
put into condition and rent for
the fourth and fifth years to be
determined on a scale based on
the prevailing price of industrial
alcohol, with a minimum guar
anteed rental of $5000 a month
payable in advance.
The Georgians also were giv
en an option to renew for three
additional five-year periods or
to buy the plant for an amount
to be negotiated.
Rural Schools
Registering
A scattering few of the rural
schools of the county will start
registering pupils for the year's
work Thursday, according to re
ports seeping into the office of
County Superintendent Mrs. Ag
nes C. Booth but in the main
school opening generally will
be September 12 over the coun
ty. However, others will open
on varying dates running from
September 6 to as late as Sep
tember 26, the date reported for
Evergreen school.
Opening Thursday for regis
tration will be Fruitland, union
high school No. 4, Stayton, and
Stayton grade school. Silver
Crest, No. 93c, is due to open
the sixth, North Howell the 16th
and, as stated Evergreen the
26th, but these odd dates are
comparatively few as to the
great majority scheduled for the
12th.
The superintendent's office al
so reported the teacher situa
tion is about as good condition
as has been had for many years.
All the rural schools have re
ported In their quota filled up
and there are also others who
would like to get Marion county
teaching jobs but will be unable
to because of the full roster.
At no time has the county
found itself shy of teachers on
opening day, although for a few
years it seemed doubtful a short
time before opening, but at the
last minute enough reserves or
others were found to take care
of the situation. But this year
the situation eased and it was
more a matter of picking the
ones wanted than going out and
hunting them up.

2 Day Week
For Coal Mines
Washington, Aug. 31 0J.PJ
Soft coal operators were angry
today over John L. Lewis' or
der for a two-day week for his
United Mine Workers in eastern
pits next week. .
Lewis late yesterday directed
locals east of the Mississippi to
work only Tuesday and Wednes
day. Monday is Labor day and
a holiday for the miners.
Operators had expected Lewis
to permit the miners to work
Thursday next week in place
of the Monday holiday. He made
such provision when he put the
three-day week in effect the
week of July 4 on account of
the Independence day holiday.
But his order specified that the
work week until further notice
shall be Monday, Tuesday and
Wednesday.
Lewis reaffirmed in yester
day's telegram that Thursday
will be an "idle day" next week.
Operators were bitter over
the additional day's lost produc
tion but admitted there was lit
tle they could do about it since
the miners have been complete
ly obedient to Lewis' orders.
Some pits might close down for
the entire week, some sources
hinted.
"You couldn't print what I
think of Lewis' action if I told
you," one industry spokesman
snapped.
Change Schedules
On Transit Lines
Effective September 6 City
Transit Lines will make some
changes in schedules on the Mill
and Madison street and the
Fruitland-Swegle lines.
The Salem office said the
changes would reduce the serv
ice slightly in the Fisher road
area and the outer end of the
Fruitland-Swegle run. This
was necessitated by shortage of
patronage, it was said.
On Labor day, which is the
opening date of the State Fair,
the lines will have special busses
operating between the city and
the fair grounds and will have
complete regular schedules as
well. The special busses to the
fair grounds will make the usual
fair week turnaround near the
fair gates.

$100,000 Bonds
Recovery of $1,949,500 face
value mortgage bonds issued by
Kynell Industries, Inc., alleged
ly valued at in excess of $iuu,
000 is asked in a complaint fil
ed in circuit court here by A. F.
Kynell vs. Glenn Munkers and
Pioneer Trust company.
The complaint avers that the
plaintiff is the owner and enti
tled to possession of such bonds
but that the "defendants still un
lawfully withhold and detain
said personal property from the
possession of the plaintiff to the
plaintiff's damage in excess of
$100,000." Kynell asks that the
court either award him posses
sion of the bonds or such sum in
excess of $100,000 as shall be
the value of the bonds in case
delivery of such bonds cannot
be had.
Explanation was given that
the bonds in question are being
held by the Pioneer Trust com
pany for safekeeping at behest
of Glenn Munkers, trustee. The
suit, it was stated, was merely
to get court determination as to
who is entitled to the bonds and
they will be turned over to such
party when the court directs.
