Oregon Jersey Cattle Club
Chooses Fox for President
Merlin Fox, Molalla dairyman, was named president of the
Oregon Jersey Cattle club to succeed Floyd Bates, Salem, re
cently named president of the Marion county club, at the an
nual meeting held at Keizer Saturday. Bates has served two
years. Irwin Slater, fieldman for the western states, installed
officers. s '
Other officers are Lloyd For
ster, Tangent, who directed
youth activities last year, vice
president . and F. J. Svinth,
Grants Pass and formerly of
Salem, re-elected secretary-trea
surer. Presidents of the various
county clubs serve as directors.
Included in the 19-point pro
gram for this year is the develop
ment of a coordinated milk pro
gram with all dairy breeds; an
annual state consignment as well
as a youth sale and the contin
uation of awarding registered
Jersey heifers to deserving 4-H
club and Future Farmer youths.
Don Rider, Canby FFA youth,
and Betty Jean Voight, Salem
4-H club member, received
calves donated by John Linehart,
Woodburn and Mrs. M. E. Leabo,
Independence. ,
Dairy interests were urged by
Dr. G. A. Richardson, OSC, to
educate the consumer in the
value of milk and to encourage
consumers to buy higher food
value milk with the dairyman
himself placing a top-grade pro
duct on the consumer's doorstep.
Eventually, he said, producers
will be paid on the basis of value
in milk. He also declared that 76
per cent of energy food is de
rived from milk.
Belief that a fieldman would
be obtained in the near future
with considerable progress along
this line already having been
made was reported by Neal
Miller, Woodburn. Membership
Dick Powell Answers Truman's
Charges Against Movie Stars
Hollywood, Jan. 30 W) Since he presumes he is one of those
criticized in President Truman's tax message to congress, producer
actor Dick Powell makes answer.
In his plea to plug loopholes in tax laws, the president cited
"producers of motion pictures and their star players, (who) have
attempted to avoid taxes byy
creating temporary corporations
which are dissolved after mak
ing one film."
Dick Powell, who has pro
duced two of his own starring
films, replies that "it's too bad
the President was misinformed.
That issue was resolved two or
three years ago when the treas
ury department stepped in to
end one-picture deals.
"I think it was an obvious
move for publicity. He knew he
could get headlines by mention
ing the movies. But I think it
is a bad thing when the presi
dent picks out one industry and
group of people to hit. The
next thing might be govern
ment control."
Powell said he understood that
the treasury department disap
proved of stars' making and dis
solving one-picture corporations'
repeatedly. But, he added,
there Is no objection to making
just one picture under a cor
porative set-up, or staying in
business and making several pic
tures. "Why, I have $60,000 of my
own money In my company,"
(aid the star. It takes a lot of
salary checks to save that much.
Besides I have to personally
guarantee a loan of $670,000.
And I may not even get my
capital investment back.

Sea slugs brought $1,000 a ton
at Canton, China, before the
war, says the National Geogra
phic Society.
"We're in business, just like
anybody else. We're just the
same as the guy who wants to
start a hardware store and goes
to the bank for a loan."
Powell said that a production
company is one of the few ways
a star can save money.
'Sure, we make big salaries,"
he agreed. "But we can't keep
much of that. What happens
when our hair starts falling out
and our bellies get big and we
don't look young and romantic
anymore?"
He said that he was lucky to
break even last year, despite his
salaries and investments.
"It would be better if stars
could earn less money and
spread it out over a period of
time. But the trouble is that
you have to keep your salary.
That's the only way you can get
big pictures. When a producer
plans a $2,000,000 picture, he
immediately plans to hire a high
salaried star. That's the way
things are done here." '

How the Navy Plans to Pull the Missouri Out of the Mud
Photo diagram, based on the navy's maneuver chart, details
the projected plan for "operation pull-off," an all-out attempt
to free the USS Missouri from the Chesapeake bay mudbank
near Norfolk, Va. The operation is scheduled for February
2 when tides will be highest since ship ran aground Jan. 17.
Part of the effort will be by the Missouri herself. Powerful
winches on the battleship's deck will haul on nine cables
(black lines fanning out from Missouri) to four-ton anchors
imbedded in bottom of bay. Two windlass-type beach salvage
ships, the "Windlass" and the "Salvager" will be linked to the
Missouri by tow cables and will haul against beach gear
cables anchored far astern. Five sea-going tugs, held together
by a lead tug and two harbor tugs pressing in from opposite
sides, will work in a "surging" or "rocking" pull. The heavy
broken lines outline the channel dredged from stern of Mis
souri to main ship channel a half mile away. Other tugs will
work alongside the Missouri with two harbor tugs alternating
in pushing against bow of the ship in a "whipsaw" motion to
help break the suction grip of the mud. Mooring lines (light
broken lines) from bow and stern are intended to keep the
big ship from turning out of dredged channel. (AP Wirephoto

Survey Reveals Boss Rates
Ability to Do Job Above Glamor
Los Angeles, Jan. 30 P) Don't worry about how tight that pink
angora sweater should fit, Millie!
at least not in the office.
A survey of 1,000 businessmen in Los Angeles discloses that
the boss rates glamor far below his secretary's ability to perform
her job efficiently. What the$
chief really wants in his gal Fri
day is that she be neat, accur
ate, dependable, a conservative
dresser, have a ready smile and
a good sense of humor.
The survey, conducted by
Woodbury college, turned up
some "pet peeves" by the boss.
Lack of punctuality 149 em
ployers said, irks them more
than anything else. Gum chew
ing, said 131 others, tops the
list, while 129 said sloppy ap
pearance is the cardinal sin.
Inefficiency, excessive smoking,
prudishness, lack of originality
and stupidity also were charged
to secretaries.
The secretaries themselves
were polled. They said they
could stand a little more leader

tact and cooperation from Mr.
Big. The gals said a sense of
