Holstein Breeders Hear
Protest on Oleo Tax Repeal
By CLAUDE STEUSLOFF
"United States dairymen will soon be competing with trained
monkeys and South Sea natives in the cocoanut oil trade," S. B.
Hall, president of the American Holstein Breeders association, told
the annual meeting of the Oregon Holstein association at the
Senator hotel this morning.
With repeal of the oleomar
garine tax by congress dairy
nroducts are now In competition
with vegetable oils grown in the
United States, he said.
Hall predicted the present low
U. S. population of dairy cattle
will go lower still to adjust num
bers to future market demands
He cited trends in registration
of dairy cattle between 1948 and
1949. In that period Guernsey
registry was down 8 per cent;
Brown Swiss lost 7.2 per cent;
Jerseys lost 5.3 per cent. Hol
steins gained 5.7 per cent and
Ayrshires were up 1.8 per cent.
In the same period transfers
denoting changes in ownership
were down 18.3 per cent for
Brown Swiss; Jerseys lost 13.4
per cent; Guernseys lost 12.9 per
cent and Ayrshires lowered .
per cent. Holstcins gained 3.8
per cent.
Industry laboratory debelop
ments have recently come out
with a popsicle made entirely of
soybeans and a 100 per cent soy
bean whipping cream. These
along with ice cream made from
sweet buttermilk containing less
than 2 per cent butterfat are
products which Hall said are
forcing dairymen out ol tne sur
plus butterfat market.
Jerry Plowman, northwest
fieldman of the Holstein asso
ciation said the Holstein or
ganization now registers more
cattle than all other dairy cat
tle registries combined. During
December the membership list
reached 39,990, and nearly 200,
000 Holsteins were put on the
books last year.
This April and May a classi
fication program will be brought
to Oregon and Washington to
get Holstein owners eyes on the
objectives breeders should be
working toward.
A movie featuring breed activ
ities will be shown during the
afternoon session. Dr. S. B. Har
rison of Portland, president,
is in charge of the meeting. Al
Lindow, Portland, Is acting as
secretary in absence of Arthur
Ireland, regular secretary.

Taipei, Formosa, Feb. 8 (,P)
Beautiful old Peiping and nint
other Chinese cities with popu
lations running into many mil
Ions were warned today to ex
pect nationalist bombers in the
immediate future.
Nationalist radio stations
broadcast the warnings. Leaf
lets were dropped on Shanghai
and Nanking by massed raiding
planes which struck Shanghai
for the second day in a row. Ten
small ships in the Whangpoo
river were said to have been
destroyed.
(The communist radio said

ed power and water supplies.)
The nationalist air raid list
included Tientsn, Nanking,
Shanghai, Hankow, Tsingtao,
Hangchow, Foochow, Amoy,

Inhabitants were advised to
move away from power plants,
shipyards, wharves, railroad

barracks and other "military ob
jectives."
Communist holdings on the
Chu San Islands, 100 miles
southeast of Shanghai, were hit

Mercy Slayer
Cleared by Jury
Bridgeport, Conn., Feb. 8 W)
Acquitted by a jury in the
mercy slaying of her cancer-ill
father, Carol Ann Palght's
thoughts turned today to relaxa

Ann's trial which ended last
night with her acquittal.
They were confirmed today
by Carol Ann's mother, Mrs.
Carl Paight, at their Stamford
home.
Mrs. Paight said Carol Ann
and Anderson were "not offi
cially engaged."
"But I hope that eventually
they will be married. Of course,
they must finish school first,"
she said.
Anderson, described by Mrs.
Paight as "a very wonderful
boy," attended last Thursday's
session of the trial when Carol
Ann tearfully testified she had
no recollection of shooting her
father.
The young man visited Carol
at the county jail last Friday
and Saturday.
A special delivery letter from
Anderson came to Carol Ann to
day. She wouldn't disclose Its
contents, but Indicated he ex
pressed his joy at her acquittal.
Carol Ann, who pleaded tem
porary insanity, was freed by a
jury of 12 parents.

County Health Clinic Unit
Favored for S. G. Hospital
A countv health clinic located in or near a hospital would be
beneficial from a financial standpoint as well as provide a more
convenient setup for all concerned.
That was determined Wednesday in a conference between

blocks were set up by state po
lice today after the woman post
master at Gardiner was beaten
and grazed by a bullet.
Mrs. Harold Grubb, 32, was
attacked by a middle-aged in
truder as she walked into the
rear of her store just before 7

there.
The man knocked her to the
floor, warning, "I'll not kill you
if you don't scream."
She lay quiet a minute, and
then, seeing a mail carrier pass
outside, shouted for help. Her
assailant fired, the bullet graz
ing her arm as she jumped up
and ran outside.
The people who came to her
aid found the store empty the
robber having escaped through
a rear window, He stole two
guns from the store, but no

The safe, which he had ap

Mrs. Grubb came in, was intact.
That was evidently because the
robber turned the dial and
locked it. The combination had
been left unlocked the night be
fore. Mrs. Grubb was brought to
a hospital here. She was not
seriously hurt.

Stone and members of the Mar
ion county court.
It had been suggested by nu
merous interested persons that
the county endeavor to move its
health clinic out of its present
offices in the Masonic temple.
A few weeks ago, there was a
suggestion of locating the coun
ty clinic near the proposed new
Salem General hospital.
At Wednesday's meeting, dis
cussion centered on possibilities
of the health clinic becoming
an actual part of the hospital.
This could be done, the group
agreed, by building an addition
al wing onto the proposed hos
pital building.
It was pointed out in the con
ference that by including the
clinic in the same building as
the hospital, savings could be
made on heat, light, telephone
and general maintenance bills,
etc.
The county clinic would also
have easy accessibility to X-ray
machines, laboratories, etc., lo
cated In the hospital. Further
advantages would include a com
bination hospital-clinic library
and record files.
Though no vote was taken at
the meeting, the general concen
sus of opinion was favorable to
housing the hospital and clinic
under the same roof.
The hospital board of direc
tors will take the matter under
consideration at their next meet
ing, then make a report to the
county.
Meanwhile, county officials
will study possible methods of
financing the proposed new
clinic. Should the clinic be built
as a wing on the hospital, it
would probably be rented to the
county by the hospital.
18-Year Blonde Held
As Murder Suspect
Washington, Feb. 8 VP) An
18-year-old attractive blonde
was held here by Park police to
day in connection with the mys
tery slaying of W. A. (Tex)
Thornton, 58, in an Amarillo,
Texas, tourist court last June
22.
Detective William Gunter told
a reporter the woman was book
ed by federal Park police at the
request of Amarillo authorities
in the death of Thornton, a well-to-do
oil man.
Gunter said she gave the name
of Diana Heney Johnson. He said
she had lived in a number of
cities over the country but had
been mostly in Detroit.
The detectives said she was ar
rested last night after police had
checked with Amarillo authori
ties. He said the Texas officials
expect to come here to return
him to that state.
- THE NEW
Macao Angers
Reds and Chiang
Hong Kong, Feb. 8 OT The
Tiny Portuguese colony of Ma
cao has aroused the ire of both
Chinese nationalists and com
munists. The Reds charged Macao fail
ed to disarm and interne na
tionalist warships which took
refuge in Macao waters. Later,
the communists say the ships
were allowed to return to com
bat against the communists. The
Reds said they would not toler
ate this interference in the war
of "liberation."
Pro-nationalist sources ac
cused Portuguese of permitting
arms running to communists
from -Manila through Macao.
They said that in lale January
a consignment of carbines, tom
my-guns, rifles and some light
artillery was turned over to the
Reds just outside of Macao. The
nationalists also charge Ho Chi
Minh, leader of the anti-French
in Indochina, received arms
from Manila by transhipment
through Hong Kong, a British
colony.
The Red charges seem to be
more disturing to Macao.
Bridges Admits
Help from Reds
San Francisco, Feb. 8 (P) -
Harry Bridges admitted on the
witness stand today that his wa
terfront union accepted financial
help from the communist party
during the 1834 strike here.
"We weren't fancy we'd take
money from anywhere we could
get it," Bridges testified. "We
even got some from the water
front employers.
The Australian-born' presi
ded of the CIO Longshore un
ion, on trial in federal court for
perjury, was indicted because
he denied at his 1945 citizen
ship hearing that he was a com
munist. The government charg
es this was false.
Other Unions Donated
Most of the money to support
the 1934 strike the walkout
that "put the union in business,"
at Bridges called it came from
other unions. He testified the
greatest part came from the San
Francisco Labor council.
"We didn't turn down any
source at all," he said on di
rect examination, "including the
communist party, the socialist
party, the workers party and the
proletarian party.
"The money was gratefully
received, and was spent so we
could eat."
Bridges said the union sent
the waterfront employers' "a
bumming letter" for funds for
the union soup kitchen, and got

Postal Official
In Stamp Fraud
Washington, Feb. 8 (P) A
high post office official has quit
by request in connection
with dealings in special stamp
issues which reportedly cost "in
vestors" hundreds of thousands
of dollars.
Postmaster General Donald
son confirmed last nignt that
Harold F. Ambrose, his special
assistant in charge of public re
lations, had been asked to re
sign and had done so January 11.
Donaldson would not discuss
the case in detail, saying that
it was "still under investigation
by the post office inspectors."
He did say he had requested
the resignation after getting re
ports that Ambrose had offered
to act as agent for buyers of
ilarge blocks of commemorative
stamp issues.
Ambrose, married to a niece
of Senator O'Mahoney (D.-
Wyo.), was said to have entered
the post office department's in
formation secton in 1933, when
the senator was first assistant
postmaster.
Mrs. O'Mahoney told news
men last night that Ambrose hau
had gone to the senator and re
ported being "in a jam." O'Ma
honey's advice, she said, was to
tell the full story to Donaldson,
then quit.
