Grains Lose As
Much As 5 Cents
Chicago, Feb. 2 VP) All grains
look a beating on the board of
trade today. Losses ranged to
nearly 5 cents at times in rye,
which was the weakest cereal.
Early selling appeared based
mainly on a slight pick-up in
country offerings on cash grain
this week.
A new selling movement fol
lowed news that Senator Will
iams (R.-Del.) planned to intro
duce a bill in congress today
calling for immediate repeal of
the 90 per cent of parity price
support law, substituting sup
port on a flexible parity basis.
Wheat closed 2 -4 'A lower,
March $2.13-, corn was 1
to 1 lower, March $1.26 oats
were lower, March 71,
rye was 3Y4-4V4 lower, May
$1.28 yi -$1.28, soybeans were Y
2 lower, March $2 28y4-$2.28,
and lard was 3 to 5 cents a hun
dred pounds lower, March
$10.40.
Stocks Advance
On Wide Front
New York, Feb. 2 (P) Ag
gressive demand for radio-tele
vision and automobile stocks
helped send the market surging
ahead over a broad front today.
Gains of a point or more were
scattered liberally through the
list and a handful managed to
get ahead 2 points or more.
Turnover for the full session
was around 1,800,000 shares.
General Motors was an out
standing strong spot, gaining
more than a point at one time.
Many traders look for gener
ous dividend action when the
board meets next week. Chrys
ler also added about a point de
spite the fact that the company
is tied up by a strike. A smaller
gain was shown by Studebaker.
First Small-pox Case
In Oregon Since 1946
Portland, Feb. 2 VP) The
first case of smallpox in Ore
gon since 1946 was reported by
the state board of health today.
The case occurred in Douglas
county last week.
An outbreak of mumps, in
creasing from 63 to 104 cases in
a week, occurred. Twenty of
the cases were in Portland.
There was one new case of in
fantile paralysis and one of
diphtheria, both in Josephine
county.
Roasting meats at a low tem

Big Mo Freed Battleship Missouri floats in Hampton Roads
off Norfolk, Va., after being wrenched free from a sand bar
where she had hung captive for 15 days. A great cheer,
"She's Free" went up from a thousand sailors as scores of
salvage ships and tugs pulled the 45,000-ton battlewagon from
her muddy perch. She was towed into Norfolk Navy Yard
for repairs after being floated. (Acme Telephoto)

For Processing Beans
Five processing plants handling Blue Lake type snap beans
in Salem and vicinity will contract about the same green bean
acreage in 1950 as they handled last year, according to incom
plete reports received on February 1 by Marion County Exten
sion Agent D. L. Rasmussen.
2 Hew Offers
For PP&L Co.
Washington, Feb. 2 In
-The
securities and exchange commis
sion today was asked to approve
a new offer of $16,125,000 cash
for control of Pacific Power and
Light company of Portland, Ore.
American Power and Light
company, of New York, request
ed that SEC permit it to accept
the bid submitted by an under
writing group headed by A. C.
Allyn and company, also of New
York, in preference to a second
offer.
The other bid for control of
the $77,000,000 Pacific north
west utility was made by Allen
and company New York, which
headed an underwriting group
offering $15,525,000 in cash plus
an undisclosed sum from the re
sale of certain Pacific Power
properties and stock.
Both offers were placed be
fore the commission as It resum
ed hearings on the complicated
case.
SEC last week rejected two
other offers made to buy Paci
fic Power on the grounds that
American Power had not main
tained "competitive conditions"
as required by law in negotiat
ing for the sale of its controlling
interest in Pacific Power.
Howard L. Aller, American
Power president, was the first
witness called to testify at the
new hearings. He said the cash
bid of the Allyn syndicate and
the proposal from Allen and
company were made yesterday.
The offers thrown out last
week by SEC were made by
syndicates headed by B. J. Van
Ingen & Co. Inc., and Allen ana
company. The Van ingen group
said it would pay a total of $14,
500,000 cash for the utility plus
up to an additional $5,000,000
from the sale of Pacific Power
Mrs. Jones
Funeral Tuesday
Funeral services will be held
at the Virgil T. Golden chapel
Tuesday afternoon at 2 o'clock
for Mrs. Jessie Creighton Jones,
member of an old Oregon fam
ily who died at her home here
Wednesday. Rev. George H.
Swift will officiate at the serv-
Born in Salem October 9, 1871,
Mrs. Jones was the daughter of
John and Mary Jane Creighton,
pioneers in Salem and eastern
Oregon. She spent her childhood
on a cattle ranch near the pres
ent site of Joseph.
Later Mrs. Jones returned to
Salem to live with her grand
parents, David and Mary Mc
Cully, and was a member of the
first graduating class at the old
East Salem school In 1888.
December 6, 1905, Jessie
Creighton was married to W. A.
Jones, son of the T. B. Joneses,
also early Oregon pioneers, and
the couple farmed near Mission
Bottom until about 1910 when
they removed to Joseph. They
returned to Salem about 1916.
After Mr. Jones' death in 1918
Mrs. Jones returned to the farm
at Mission Bottom and resided
there until 1937 when she mov
ed to her home at 369 North
Liberty street. She was a mem
ber of the Eastern Star.
Surviving are a daughter, Mrs
Rosalie Rhoades; a son, Creigh
ton Jones; and three grandchil-
Iren, Lucinda Creighton Jones,
Tudith Ann Porter and George
Uvin Porter, all residing in Sa-
.em.

plans to maintain the 665 acres
grown for the cooperative by its
grower members in 1 9 4 9 , ac
cording to Irvin Parberry, field-
man. Acreage to be handled by
Blue Lake Packers could not
be verified by Fred Wolf, field
man, until return of John John
son and other cannery officials
from a canners and packers
convention in New Jersey. Wolf
said that the Blue Lake co-op
members grew 800 acres of
snap beans in 1949.
Representatives of the major
cash buyers couldn't list 1950
acreages until contracts were
completed in the next few
weeks. Fred Scheidegger, Cali
fornia Packing company, said
his company's Salem plant plans
to process an increased bean
acreage in 1950.
Paulus Brothers representa
tive Floyd Bates reported that
they will probably reduce the
1950 tonnage about ten percent
slow the 1949 harvest. A. W.
Beckford of the Birds Eye-Sni
der plant in Woodburn hadn't
received any acreage notice from
the Hillsboro office.
California Packing company
in Salem quoted the following
prices for the 1950 crop of Blue
Lake type beans: Number 1
grade, $155 per ton for No. 1, 2,
and 3 sieve sizes; Number 2
grade, $130 per ton for No. 4
sieve beans; Number 3 grade,
$80 per ton, No. 5 sieve; and for
the Number 4 grade or No. 6
sieve beans, $55 per ton.
Paulus Brothers and Birds
Eye-Snider hadn't announced
their prices on February 1. Be
cause of their organization as
cooperatives, Stayton Canning
company and Blue Lake Packers
do not quote cash prices.
Prices for the first three
grades in 1949 average $160,
$140 and $90 respectively. In
1946, they average $150, $135
and $90, according to Oregon
Experiment Station Bulletin 452
"Cost of Producing Pole Beans
in the Willamette Valley, Ore
gon." This bulletin is available
in offices of Oregon county ex
tension agents.
If contracts are filled as plann
ed, Rasmussen estimates that the
five processors will handle over
3500 acres of beans in 1950. This
will represent a substantial re
turn for farmers, processors,
and the many hundreds of peo
ple employed in the canning
and freezing plants in Salem
Woodburn and Stayton.

Gash Sliced in
Bottom of Mo
Portsmouth, Va., Feb. 2 (iP)
A 12-foot long gash was sliced
in the Battleship Missouri s bot
tom when she grounded on
Thimble shoal, a drydock in
spection disclosed today.
At Atlantic fleet spokesman
reported the gash, which caus
ed flooding of three double bot
tom compartments, was cut by a
sharp steel plate believed to be
part of a wreck ship on the bot
tom of Chesapeake bay.
A small portion or the plate
still was stuck in the opening
when the ship's bottom was in
spected today.
Salvage experts believe the
steel plate played a big part in
holding the 45,000-ton warship
prisoner on the shoal for 15
days. She was freed yesterday
on the fifth refloating attempt
and towed to the Norfolk naval
shipyard at Portsmouth.
The gash is the only damage
that will require repair, the fleet
spokesman said. There are "sev
eral minor nicks in the ship's
propellors," but these will re
quire no repair, he reported. The
engines are undamaged but sand
and mud in the condensers must
be cleaned out, he added.
Rear Admiral Homer N. Wal-
lin, commandant of the shipyard
and deputy chief of the salvage
operation, said he Is "fairly cer
tain" the Big Mo will be ready
lor sea in seven days and pos
sibly five.
McMahon Asks
Peace Drive
Washington, Feb. 2 (P) Sen
ator McMahon (D-Conn.) today
proposed that the United States
undertake a bold, new $50,000,
000,000 peace offensive to end
the world's "truly terrible armsH
race."
He told the senate the United
States possesses no monopoly
on the hydrogen bomb idea. He
said failure to press ahead with
its development "might mean
unconditional surrender in ad
vance by the United States to
alier forces of evil."
McMahon is chairman of the
joint senate-house atomic com
mittee. He spoke out shortly af
ter President Truman had told
his White House news confer
ence that the United States
stands by its demand for tight
international control inspections
before outlawing any atomic
weapons, including the project
ed new H-bomb.
The president observed that
this country has repeatedly and
continuously made clear to the
United Nations that it favors
international controls with rig
id inspections. Soviet Russia
differs with the United States
on controls and this difference
has stalemated any world out
lawing of atomic weapons.
McMahon puts major blame
on Russia for our "enormously
reluctant decision to make hy
drogen bombs."
But, he said, the United States
also is to blame "for failing to
Bri-z our message of peace and
conciliation" adequately to the
attention of people with a reas
onably free access to informa
tion." (Advertisement!

Flax Industry
Hears Cochran
Several representatives of the
Willamette valley flax industry
met Thursday with Clay Coch
ran, manager of the Chamber
of Commerce, to hear Coch
ran's report on progress made
in Washington toward aid for
the flax growers and processors
Competition from foreign
countries is making a serious
problem for the Oregon growers.
There was no importation dur
ing war years, but it has to be
contended with now, and last
year over 5000 tons was import
ed.
What the Oregon growers
want is either subdizing by the
government, as is done with
other crops, or an increase in
tariff to a protective degree. An
adequate subsidy is preferable.
The difference in labor costs
between this country and for
eign countries is a factor in the
problem. More mechanical de
vices for handling flax are being
studied as a possible means of
reducing labor costs, but it is
said that much hand labor is
necessary because of the nature
of the commodity and its proc
essing. Those conferring with Coch
ran included Henry R. Crawford,
chairman of the state flax board;
Fred J. Schwab and Joe Ober
sinner of Mt. Angel, Rufus Craz
berger of Canby, Harley Libby
of Jefferson and Clinton Chrlst
ner of Molalla.
On a recent trip to Washing
ton Cochran conferred with
agricultural authorities in behalf
of the industry. The Oregon
congressional delegation Is also
working on the problem.
To Recognize
Bao's Indochina
Paris, Feb. 2 VP) The way
was cleared today for the Wes
tern Powers to recognize the
French-sponsored Vietnam gov
ernment of former Emporer Bao
Dai in Indochina.
Ratification of an accord giv
ing Bao Dai's regime limited
sovereignty was overwhelming
ly voted in the upper house of
the French parliament the
council of the republic. The
lower house national assem
bly passed it last week.
Thus Bao Dai's government
is given a large measure of con
trol on domestic affairs and min
or representation In foreign re
lations.
It paves the way for Britain
and the United States to give
their formal recognition as
counter to Russian recognition
two days ago of the rebel Viet
nam regime of Moscow-trained
Ho Chi-Minh.
In connection with the sur
prise Soviet move and France's
formal protest Russian Ambas
sador Alexander Bogomolov to-
day paid a six-minute call at
