Second Salem
Polio Fatality
The second death of the week
from poliomyelitis or infantile
paralysis occurred Friday nignt
at Salem Memorial hospital
when Bruce Gottfried, 9 years
old. succumbed to the disease.
The first was that Wednesday
of John Reinwald. 11, son of
Mr. and Mrs. Fred Reinwald.
Another case is now under
treatment at the hospital.
Bruce Gottfried was the son
of Mr. and Mrs. Leonard P. Gott
fried, 135S Pearl street. He was
taken to the hospital Wednes
day. The disease was immediate
ly recognized to be of severe
type.
Some months ago the Marion
county chapter of the Polio
Foundation installed at Salem
Memorial hospital physiothera
py equipment for treatment of
the disease, with special train
ing for doctors and nurses. Since
then 10 cases have been received
at the hospital.
In the county during this year
17 cases have been reported of
which two were fatal.
The new case at Salem Mem
orial is Herbert Graves, 9, son of
Mr. and Mrs. Lyle Graves, 62S
Norman avenue.
Postal Receipts Postal re
ceipts for September were $55,-
526.76, a gain of $5566.78 over
a similar month of 1948 or an in
crease of approximately 11 per
cent, Postmaster Albert Gragg
reported Saturday. He estimates
that five or six percent of the
gain is attributable to the in
crease in rates for various serv
ices. For the quarter ending
September 1, postal receipts
were $170,482.13 as compared
with $161,954.73 a year ago.

Unionists Leave Parley Lawson McCall, secretary to Gov
ernor McKay, chats with Fred Kamahoahoa, Hawaiian CIO
picket, center, and Matt Meehan, international representative
of the CIO Longshoremen's union. Both of the labor men left
a fruitless conference in the governor's office before the
session ended.
No Progress
(Continued from Page 1)
"Absolutely nothing has been
accomplished. Everything is just
the same as it was. But both
sides will make a statement."
George Brown, state CIO sec
retary, denied that CIO officials
had ordered the pickets to resort
to violence.
I feel that the state of Ore
gon is being imposed upon by
the bringing in of a labor dis
pute that has no place in the
state. Brown continued.
Brown went on to say that the
pineapple cargo was destined
for California; that never before
had pineapple been shipped
from Hawaii to any Oregon port
other than Portland, and after
the present dispute is dissipated,
probably The Dalles will never
get another shipment of pine
apple. Admitting that the cargo was
marked for California, Lyle
Hickok, president of The Dalles
port commission, told the con
ference that the barge was wel
comed because of the possibility
of displaying facilities of the
port that would bring future bu
siness. Intimation that the pineapple
barge will be moved to some
Washington port on the Colum
bia was given by Gunther F.
Krause, attorney for the Ha
waiian Pineapple company. Af
ter stating that the company did
not intend to unload the cargo
in The Dalles, Krause was ask
ed where the barge would be
taken.
"The Columbia river is not
entirely within the state of Ore
gon," he replied.
Krause contended that the
pineapple cargo was not "hot,"
maintaining that the federal
court in California had ruled
that no labor dispute exists on
the docks of the west coast that
would permit picketing. He also
said that the successful unload
ing of the cargo would have
yielded the Port of The Dalles
between $6000 and $7000 after
on a return cargo.

Coast Watched
For Pineapples
The Dalles, Ore., Oct. 1 (IP)
CIO longshoremen watched the
Oregon coast closely today for
four new pineapple barges re
ported en route from Hawaii.
They set up a scouting system
to get longshoremen quickly to
any port where unloading is at
tempted.
An airplane and five speed
boats were held at points along
the coast to investigate any
barge-like craft approaching.
CIO leaders said they had been
tipped the barges were coming.
So far the longshoremen have
a win and a loss in the battle
over pineapple slipped out of
strike-bound Hawaii. One barge
got into Tillamook bay on the
Oregon coast before longshore
men detected It. It was unload
ed.
The other was tied up at The
Dalles, but the port commission
ordered the barge to move after
longshoremen raided the dock,
damaged equipment and threw
some pineapple into the Colum
bia river Wednesday.
The Hawaiian Pineapple com
pany, owners of the shipment
clung stubbornly to hope that
the unloading still might be al
lowed here. Almost no one else
believed it possible.
The longshoremen called
away their pickets, believing
the victory final, and held them
in readiness for other scenes.

Air Reservists
Train in Flying
Since the arrival at the Salem
Naval Air Facility of the four
SNJs from Seattle for use in
training air reservists several
men from the area served by the
facility have been getting in
flying time.
Most of the men have come
from Portland, where they have
an advance base outfit under the
commandant of the 13th Naval
District. Latest from this group
(ACORN 13-2) to fly here were
Lt. George Bickford, formerly
with the Corvallis unit, and Lt.
Kenneth Cochran, who Friday
were here to fly the planes.
Only one member of the Sa
lem aviation volunteer unit has
used the planes since their ar
rival. He is Lt. Ed Schiess. Pre

workers, gave in to union de

part of the costs. Harrisburg

job because negotiations are con
tinuing under a later strike
deadline.
Allegheny Ludlum, which has
12,000 employes, and Kaiser,

ating because their contracts
run until October 15. those
firms have not yet received the
union's demands.
The strike closed 53 steel com
panies and 50 iron ore mining
firms in what may prove to be
one of the most quiet steel
strikes in American history.
Mills had begun to close down
operations as much as two days
before the strike deadline. Scat
tered wildcat strikes dotted the
nation before the scheduled end
of the truce asked by President
Truman and accepted by both
union and industry.

On the other hand, he says it
will cost the county something
over $20,000 for new right-of-way
while on the present route
any right-of-way needed would
be available at small cost. The
present route is 3.2 miles into
Silverton, maybe a little less
than the new route. The old
route doesn't offer a suitable
railroad crossing, he said, which
would have to be at grade but
might be made reasonably safo
with automatic signals.
The 3.2 miles of the old route.
he said, shouldn't cost over $250,.
000 while the appropriation of
federal and state funds for the
new route is $425,000, including
575, ouu for an overpass, grad
ing and paving $290,000 and a
new bridge, $60,000. The pres
ent bridge on the old route, he
says, is a good bridge, not more
than three or four years old, and
if of suitable standard should
save the $60,000 allocated for the
bridge on the new route, or a to
tal difference in cost of $135,
000, also less than $20,000 for
right-of-way.
"If there is that difference in
cost pointed out," said Judge
Murphy, "then it is up to the
state highway department and
bureau of roads to justify the
extra expenditures as they are
furnishing the money.
"It would seem if that money
were saved it might accelerate
the award of some other federal
aid project in Marion county, or
it could be diverted to some oth
er project in the county."
"As it stands there is no pres
ent action to be taken on the
petitions, but they will be given
serious consideration if the mat
ter should come to a head. With
the state and government fur
nishing the bulk of the funds
they have the determining say in
the establishment of the road's
location."
Judge Murphy segregated the
names on the remonstrance
showing 214 from Silverton; 24,
Mt. Angel; Brooks, Monitor and
Lyons, 1 each; Woodburn, 4;
Pratum, 2; Salem, 15; Scotts
Mills, 16, and addresses un
known, 75. A statement accom
panied the remonstrances saying
all the signers are residents of
the county.

Affects All Industry
But the nationwide steel strike
threatened to add thousands to
the idle ranks. Another 500,000
steclworkcrs in fabricating
plants may be forced off their
jobs. Many other industries face
curtailment in operations be
cause of the lack of steel and
will be forced to furlough work
ers. In other labor developments.
one strike ended and prospects
appeared brighter for the end of
the three-week old Missouri Pa
