Buttons Reappear as Hutterite
Sect Eases Up on.Austerity
New York UM9 The Hutterians, a sect of religious commu
nists, are gradually absorbing American ways, according to Dr.
Marcus Bach, professor of religion at the University of Iowa.
Buttons, forbidden as a rebuke to German militarists during
the Thirty Years War, are finally appearing on Hutterite clothing.

GLAMOUR FADES IN TIME
This Sultry Movie Siren Sells
Brake Linings on the Side
By PATRICIA CLARY
Hollywood U.F Jacqueline Dalya, who has the big brown
eyes of Gene Tiemey and the voluptuousness of Maria Montez,
says a girl can't rely on glamour alone.
So she has a job selling brake linings.
Miss Dalya still plays the sultry, come-hither siren of movies.
And as insurance against thev
day when nobody wants to see
her pictures, she's sales manager
of a California auto parts manu
facturing company with a staff
of 20 working for her.
"I've pushed sales up 22 per
cent in the last four months,"
Miss Dalya said, releasing Vic
tor Mature from a movie em
brace. "I believe we can increase
business by two per cent a
month for the rest of the year.
"I gave up pictures for sever
al months to attend strictly to
business. Then I suggested to the
president that I just be sales
manager between pictures. He
said I'd been doing so well that
he didn't mind at all.
"What more can a girl ask
for? I have Vic Mature and a
business on the side."
Miss Dalya gets Mature
when Betty Grable isn't looking
in 20th Century-Fox's ' "Wa
bash Avenue." Her first movie
was with Mature, too. It was
called "One Million B.C."
"We played a caveman and
eavewoman," she said. "He did
n't recognize me with clothes
on."
Miss Dalya knows a lot about
business. Before she decided to
be an actress, she worked in de
partment stores.
"I saw the world from depart
ment stores," she said. "I work
ed in nine different countries.
Learned the language, and got
paid for It."
She takes a businesslike ap
proach, she said, to sell brake
linings and clutches.
"I dress like a business wom
an," she said. "In a tailored suit.
None of this plunging neckline
business. You don't sell brake
linings by having men stare at
you. You sell by having them
listen to you.
1
Glamour is a pretty unreliable
commodity anyway, Miss Dalya
believes.
"It's all right," she shrugged,
"but there's a lot on the mar
ket, and it's going to fade in
time. I think every girl should
marry, first of all, have chil
dren, and then get into a busi
ness that will secure her future
" no matter what happens."
Just in case Miss Dalya's gla
mour and her brake linings fail
her, she has a third ace up her
sleeve. She writes popular songs,
and two of them are now on the
market.

Lovers Quarrel
Ends in Fatality
Portland, Me., Nov. 22 ff)
A high school lovers' quarrel
ended Sunday night, police said,
in the fatal shooting of a pretty
16-year-old girl.
Katherine B. Furbish was
shot in the chest apparently
while struggling with her boy
friend, also 16' for pose'ssion of
revolver he had pointed at
his own head.
Detective Capt. Edward M.
Kochian, saying that "it looks
like an accident," let the boy
go home with orders to return
with his parents today for fur
ther questioning, Kochian would
not identify the youth.
The attractive brunette Port
land high school sophomore,
clad in a nightgown and bed
jacket, was found dying on a
bed in her Waterville street
home.
The boy first said she shot
herself, Kochian related, then
told this story:
He and Katherine had been
arguing "about her going out
with other fellows."
The boy got a revolver be
longing to Katherine's father
and pointed it at his head with
the firing pin half-cocked to
frighten her in a sort of Rus
sian roulette game,"
Screaming "give me that gun,"
Katherine grabbed at the wea
pon as the boy lowered it. The
revolver went off sending a bul
let into her chest.

Cold Wave Hits
Easl Half of U.S.
- ' (By the Associated Presi)
Cold northerly winds whipped
across a wide portion of the
eastern half of the nation today.
Temperatures dropped to their
lowest levels of the autumn sea
son in many areas.
The frosty weather extended
from the Rockies to the New
England states and dipped into
most of the southland. Florida
and southern Georgia escaped
the cold blasts, but the mercury
was in the upper twenties as far
south as central Alabama.
Snow flurries accompanied
the chilly breezes in many sec
tions. There was a narrow band
of light snow from eastern Lake
Michigan through Indiana and
Kentucky into Tennessee. Snow
flurries also were reported from
the southern shores of Lakes
Erie and Ontario eastward into
northern New England and
southward through parts of
Pennsylvania and West Virginia,
Temperatures were below nor
mal throughout the Great Lakes
region, the Ohio valley and the
central Missouri and Mississip
pi valleys. They were above nor
mal in the central and northern
plains states. The coldest wea
ther was in Michigan, Wiscon
sin and Illinois. Lowest early
morning readings included 10
above at Flint and Gladwin,
Mich.; 11 at Lone Rock, Wis.
and 13 in Chicago suburbs.
The Pacific coast reported
near normal temperatures. There
was some fog and light rain in
parts of the far west.
Guernsey Meeting
Held Here This Week
Marion-Polk county Guernsey
Breeders association met in Sa
lem this week and made plans
for the coming year's activities.
Ray Hobson, president of the as
sociation from Amity, was nam
ed director for the state club
which holds its annual meeting
in Eugene, December 19 .
On the schedule for local
Guernsey breeders this year is
a regular monthly meeting on
the third Tuesday of each month.
The group voted in favor of
holding another spring show in
May or June to exhibit top
Guernsey animals of each coun
ty. -
Frank Poepping and August
Minke of Mt. Angel were ap
pointed to visit each 4-H and
FFA member in Marion county
who has purchased a heifer
through the Oregon Guernsey
Breeders association heifer sales
during the past four years. Ray
Hobson, Robert Reed and Ken
neth Swingle of Sheridan are
making similar contacts in Polk
county.
Guests at the meeting were

the lives of the women easier.
Although all personal posses
sions and all luxuries are for
bidden, elders in a South Dakota
commune which Bach visited
were discussing the possibility
of buying a station wagon, and
the influence of the outside
world on the group is growing.
The Hutterians, who came to
America in 1874 and have eight
colonies in South Dakota, two in
Montana and about 30 in Canada,
boast of their high moral code:
no divorces and no Hutterians
ever' in jail, except two pacifists
in World War I.
The two were young men of
the Bon Homme Colony in South
Dakota who died In Leaven
worth prison. They refused to
shave off their beards, grown by
all Hutterite married men, and
went naked rather than put on
prison garb.
When they died they were
shipped back to the colony dress
ed in prison clothes. The Hutter
ian fathers sent the clothes back
to Leavenworth and buried their
sons in the traditional hook-and-eye
homespun. The unmarked
graves of these two men are in
the Rockport, S. D., colony
Things were different during
World War II. "America," said
the Hutterians, "marvelously re
spected our rights."
Dr. Bach, one of the few
'outsiders" who have been al
lowed to penetrate the isolated
Hutterian communes, reports
that he asked the boss of a col
ony what he would have to do
to become a Hutterian.
The man answered, "That's
simple. You just give up every
thing you own and we put it in
the colony treasury. You find
work you like, dress as we do
and become one of us
When Dr. Bach asked him
whether that meant giving up
his wrist watch and his car, the
boss answered, "Why not? What
do you want i with a watch?
We've got the colony bell. And
what do you want with a car?
You're not going anywhere."
The U. S. Public Health Ser
vice has granted Wayne Univer
sity $19,365 to find out why the
Hutterites are so well adjusted
to thoir environment.
Dr. Bach commented, "When
they tell me that the Hutterians
have found Utopia I think about
the time I took one of the colony
overseers with me on a car ride.
"When the gate closed behind
us and we were on the open road
the bearded man said, 'You
know what would go good on a
morning like this? An ice cream
cone,
A few miles later he spoke
again. 'You know what I have
never tasted? A malted milk.' We
had malted milks, and were still
70 miles from our destination
We had pretzel sticks and candy
bars and lots of other stuff that
loosened up life for the old man.
He was out of Utopia and was
having a whale of a time."
t
The Hutterians insist that they
are happy in their communes.
As one colony boss puts it,
'pf course we are or we would
n't stay. No one stands at the
gate with a gun, But 'there is
something greater than happi
ness." ''
It was to find out what this
was that Dr. Bach began his
series of visits among the Hut
terian people. He has based a
novel on his findings, "The
Dream Gate" (Bobbs-Merrill).

New Party in
China in Offinq
Hong Kong, Nov. 22 VP) A
new party hostile both to the
communists and Chiang Kai
Shek may be in the offing in
China.
Acting President Li Tsun-Jen
is expected to take a lead in it.
He is now in a hospital in this
British colony. He arrived Sun
day, Chiang still is awaiting Li in
Chungking. The generalissimo
went there from Formosa last
week at Li's invitation.
Foreigners from inland China,
who arrived over the week-end,
said the new party would expect
United States help in stemming
the communists,
These obervers said the hew
party would adopt a more vig
orous policy against the commu
nists than Chiang's policy of
trading space for time and
avoiding major battles with the
Reds.
Such . a policy, the observers
said, might gain the support of
people dissatisfied with the com
munist administration and might
win sympathy in the United
States and substantial material
aid.
