Need of Leadership
Stressed by Speaker
By MARIAN LOWRY FISCHER
"The problem of the world today is not the progress in interna
tional understanding and good will, the basic problem is: Can
we find enough leaders to lead in the work to be drnc?" said
Mrs. Wilson Compton of Pullman, Wash., guest speaker for the
annual dinner and meeting of
the Salem YWCA in the First
Methodist church Tuesday eve
ning. Mrs. Compton is the wife of
ih. Washington State college
president.
In elaborating on the subject
This Chaplain
Retired on 30
Years' Service
Washington, Feb. 1 (U.BFor
three decades, house sessions
have opened with such words as
these In the firm voice of Rev.
James Shera Montgomery:
"Heavenly father, long have
thy servants thirsted after
thee."
The Rev. Montgomery was
there during the roaring 20's,
' into the depression 30's, and
during the second world war.
Born in Mount Carmel, Ind.,
on of a minister, educated here
and in Oxford, England, the
Rev. Montgomery served Me
thodist churches in Toledo, O.,
and Minneapolis before coming
to the capital as house chaplain
In 1921. With such a life, his
wa- a plain man's faith in reli
gion and country:
"Thou hast lifted our people
to a state wherein abound sim
ple brotherhood and righteous
living."
But he was aging and has
been ill of late. At 87, he still
was hearty in voice but stooped
halting in his walk. He has been
chaplain longer than any man.
Appointed by a republican
house, he sayed on under the
democrats because his role was
never political in the often un
ruly chamber.
Monday, the house acted on
his request for retirement. It
made him chaplain emeritius
for life at full pay of $3,900 a
year. Rev. Bernard Braskamp,
a, Presbyterian, was named to
take his place.
Sfudebaker Cuts
Prices $82 to $135
South Bend, Ind., Feb. 1 U.
Btudebaker corporation reduced
the prices on all its passenger
cars from $82 to $135 today.
1 H. S. Vance, president and
chairman of the board of the
company announced that the
price reductions resulted from
lower production costs.
"We are now in a position,
for the first time since the war,
to reduce prices even thougn we
know that some of our costs
will increase in the months
ahead," Vane said.
The price cuts were effective
today on the list prices of the
cars.
of world leadership, Mrs. Comp
ton said some countries are
finding it difficult to find enough
qualified men to sit in on all
groups of the United Nations
some of them have to place the
same representatives on several
groups.
She pointed out some nations
have women representatives at
come of the groups and com
mented that many of these worn

received part oi tnetr training
in YWCA work in the 87 coun
tries where the YW functions
internationally. Mrs Compton
said men can not do all the
work in solving the problems,
that there is need for women
to work, too.
Leaders for Future
"The future is not bound up
in hydrogen bombs, the future
is dependent on qualified lead
ership," the speaker added.
Mrs. Compton's talk was in
three parts, one phase being a
pep" talk to encourage YWCAs
to carry on in their plans to
conduct campaigns to establish
new plants and needed facili
ties: the second on the nrob
lem of good leadership; the
third on women s place in work
ing out some of the problems
In discussing the YW's needs.
Mrs. Compton reminded the im
portance and place of youne
people in building an organiza
tion like the YW must be recog
nized. She urged an attitude
of faith and courage in believing
mat a joe "can be done" and
said when community interest is
aroused there is vision to see
that something is done.
Women on March
In taking up the phase of
women's place in working on
world problems, Mrs Compton
said there comes the question:
Why women are not getting
more opportunities to take their
place?"
In answer she gently chided
the women for their interest in
accumulating the material things
tnanKs to the great develop
ment in the advertising indus
try but added "the women are
on the march," there is need
for them and work for them
to do.
Mrs. James T. Brand, a col
lege classmate of Mrs Compton,
introduced the speaker. The
visitor was a guest at the Brand
home during her visit here.
(An account of the business
session at the annual YWCA
meeting and the election of
directors is carried in a story
on the society page).

Chinchilla Coat May Be Sold
At $8,000 Some of These Days
By BARMAN W. NICHOLS
(United Prwa Staff Correspondent)
Washington, Feb. 1 U.R) Inside of eight or 10 years anyone
can own a chinchilla coat for $8,000 or $10,000.
But right now, the price is a little high. Rita Hayworth wore
a toss-around that was worth about $75,000 when she married
Aly Khan. Another coat of the same kind once sold for $85,000.
These aren't par for the";

June Ally son Gets Chance
To Show Her Sex Appeal
By BOB THOMAS
Hollywood, Feb. 1 W) They're giving June Allyson the sex
appeal treatment.
The blonde star has been considered the girl who would be
"so nice to come home to." She has been cast as the under
standing wife or as starry-eyed sweetheart swept off her feet
by the hero. Imagine my surprise
to find her in a role once in
tended for Ava Gardner.
The picture is "Right Cross."
She plays the semi-tough daugh
ter of an oldtime prizefight
figure, Lionel Barrymore
"Gee, I even get to say things
Iike'dumb dame,' she glowed.
"You fall for every dumb dame
that comes along,' I say. Now
I've never said anything like
that before in pictures."
Not only that, she also has
some hot love scenes with
Ricardo Montalban and husband
Dick Powell. The latter even
lures her to his apartment on the
pretext of cooking her some spa
ghetti, the cad.
Miss Allyson seemed resentful
when 1 asked how the studio
would make her sexy. But then
she admitted that hasn't been her
strong suit.
"It takes some doing, she
conceded. "Ava Gardner can do
it with a look. It takes me three
pages of dialogue to convey the
same imprssion."
Whether as a sex queen or in
her more usual role as the bright
faced maid, June Allyson is
riding high these days. She has
been shown up on the popularity
polls in a manner that surprises
her studio and herself, too.
In the motion picture Herald's
poll of box office champions,
she was the fourth female star,
behind Betty Grable, Esther
Williams and Loretta Young.
And in a magazine's poll of rural
movie-goers. Miss Allyson was
named the top actress of 1949,
This should have an effect on
her relations with her studio, but
hasn't. She continues to take
orders and scripts without
complaint.
"The trouble is that I forget
about the polls," she shrugged.
"Sometimes I don't feel like
doing a certain picture. I re
hearse my speech over and over
and then go storming up to the
administration building.
But they treat me so nicely
that I go home and Dick says
'well, did you tell them?' I just
sigh and say, 'honey I'm
lucky to be working!' "
Theater Tax Contested
Eugene, Feb 1 (IP) A suit con
testing the city's three percent
levy on amusement admissions
got under way here today in cir
cuit court. The theater interests
charge the tax Is discriminatory.
Mayor V. Edwin Johnson and
several city councilmen and of
ficials have been summoned to
appear in Judge G. F. Skip
worth's court.
course, because there are cheap
er garments. Some come as low
as $25,000. Most of them are
not for sale, for there are only
25 in the world at this moment.
I got all of this information
from the chinchilla people who
are about to pitch a national
chinchilla show here. Stanley W.
Pangborn, the chairman, has a
ranch" the the area.
"We are about to go from
animals to coals," he said.
Pangborn gave out a little his
tory of the chinchilla, which
looks like a cross between a
rabbit and a rat.
The chinchilla is a native of
the Andes mountains of South
America. For many years ex
porting of the animals was a
profitable business for the na
tives. Then, all of a sudden the
natives found the little fellows
were good to eat. They ate so
many that the critters almost be
came extinct.
In 1923, a mining engineer
named M. F. Chapman went in
to the wilds of the Andes and
captured 11 of the cute little
animals, three females and
eight males. He figured the alti
tude was too great so he brought
them down a little at a time.
It took him a long time at the
rate of 1000 feet a month.
Chapman found that the ani
mals could go three or four days
without food or water, so he
concluded they could be raised
in captivity.
Chinchillas still aren't cheap.
If you want to start a ranch,
it'll cost you about $1500 a pair
to start. You can depend on
these to produce from one to two
litters a year, with one to five
babies in each.
Most ranches of the chinchil
la type are without too much
space. Pangborn's space, where
he keeps some 200 animals, look
like a hen house. It's 36 by 58
feet.
"Up to now," Pangborn said,
"we have been working on the
