Eleven men 10 United Mine Vorkers pickets and one non mion miner were wounded, lowever, only one remained hospitalized after treatment. A band of unarmed UMW lickets approached the front of he non-union mined owned by isa A. Provins yesterday. Prov ns met them while his miners cattcred, said Sheriff Mike Gill. One of the pickets said Prov ns' miners opened fire on them ,s they were talking with Prov- fin about the unionization of his ion-union mine. ' Provins said when the pickets tarted "pushing me around and oughing me up, my workers ook my part." We walked into a "cleverly lanned ambush," said UMW istrict committeeman Harry lycrs. iremen Gather Hubbard Hall Hubbard The Marion Coun Firemen's association met at ic Hubbard fire hall with Verl ochran, president, in charge, ive fire departments were rcp Dsented with about 100 present.

The drug is Khallin. It comes from a weed common in Arabia and the eastern Mediterranean countries. Extracts are used for colic. ' Doctors Harold L. Osher and Kermit H. Katz, of Boston City hospital, reported using Khallin on 28 persons, all with bad cases of angina pectoris. All but three were much relieved. Thirteen had been unable to work because muscular activity caused heart attacks. Eight re turned to work. These included laborers, mechanics and house wives. Khallin reduced the frequency of painful attacks as well raising muscular activity. The drug dilates arteries. Angina pain comes from constriction in art eries which feed working blood to heart muscles. Some patients were taking nitroglycerine for the heart con dition. Khallin reduced the amount needed. The drug is manufactured for doctors only by Smith, Kline and French laboratories, Phila delphia. It is not for sale. Dr. Katz told of stopping angina pain almost instantly by poking one linger against a pa tient's neck. This was done with patients who volunteered as guinea pigs. They brought on attacks by taking exercises in the doctor's presence. tie men would place one finger tip on the side of the neck, over tne carotid sinus, a nerve center. Pressure at that point stopped the pain. This expert mcnt is part of a study of the possibility of relieving angina pains by treating nerve reflexes. These pains are fairly wide spread, in chest, neck and upper Mahoney Denies Pearson Support Portland, April 21 W) Slate Sen. Thomas R. Mahoney insists that he Is not joining ex-Gov. John Hall in supporting Walter Pearson's campaign for gover nor. Mahoney said in a public statement here yesterday that "former Governor Hall and my self have never discussed at any time or in any manner the cur rent governorship campaign. We have never acted together in any way, shape or manner concern ing that or any other campaign." He made the statement in an swer to a charge from Howard Morgan, Monmouth, former state representative, that Pear son was supported "by the John Hall wing of the republican par ty and the Tom Mahoney wing of the democratic party."

Many Fields Show Signs Of Plant Food Deficiencies Silverton Farmers that are interested in studying the fertilizer needs of the fields on their farms should take time during the next few days to make a careful study of the plants in all of their fields, according to a report from the soil con servation service headquarters at Silverton. Now when there is ampie moist-e- ure is one of the best times of the year to see the indications of different food deficiencies. Due to the cool weather many grain fields in the Silver Creek Soil Conservation district have a definite yellow green color. Scattered through the fields are spots of dark green which are usually two or six inches higher than the yellow plants next to them. This dark green color is due to ample supply of nitrogen. On the other hand the yellow green color is a sign of nitrogen deficiency. A temporary correc tion of this problem may be ob tained by using commercial nit rogen fertilizers, but for the far mer who wishes to correct the basic problem it will require changes in crop rotation, use of legumes in the grass mixtures and liming of the soil to make more ideal environment for some of our soil micro-organisms. This problem is probably most severe in areas that tend to be wet and if possible should be drained. A close examination of plants will sometimes reveal plants with red stems and nodes. In various stages of plant defic iencies this red coloration may extend to the lower leaves and in a few cases to the entire plant, j Often associated with this con-i dition are brown edges and spots on many leaves. In fact, a few of the lower leaves may be turn ed completely brown. i This is probably an interming ling of plant deficiency signs all of which we are not entirely able to seperate as to the cause of the exact problem here in the Silver Creek district. These hunger signs are due to a lack of phos phate, potash or boron or to a combination of these deficiencies says Austin Sanford, local SCS technician. In order to study these prob- lcms the supervisors of the Sil ver Creek Soil Conservation dis- ENJOY THE fit VS WHISKEY THAT Jk KENTUCKY BOURBON WHISKEY-A BLEND NATIONAL DISTILLERS PRODUCTS CORPORATION, NEW YORK.

This has already been done for cover crops and additional stu dies are now being made on fields to be planted to red clover dur ing the coming spring. More def inite information should be avail able on these fields next year. Sanford suggests that farmers study their fields and see wheth er they are being troubled by some of these deficiencies.

'Til 8 P.M. tarn Super Flies Build Resistance to DDT; Scientists Begin to Worry Corvallis, Ore., April 21 Super flies are getting radio active doses of DDT here in a laboratory battle against their spread. Already they are a menace in more than half the states. The geiger counter tells A. W. Lindquist he's the federal en tomologist in charge that the flies have absorbed the once le- thai DDT. But analysis shows that these super flies have turn ed it into harmless form. Pest control operators of five Pacific northwest states, who closed a three-day meeting here yesterday at Oregon State col lege, told Lindquist they had to have help: DDT, once hailed as the miracle killer, isn't wiping out the flies any more. That was no lews to Lind quist, who was one of the fed eral entomologists who learned in 1945 experiments in Florida that some flies were building up a resistance to DDT. Two years ago the tough flies that DDT wouldn't kill were found in 25 states. Last year they were found in the state col lege swine barn here. Soon these super flies will be everywhere. They are the off spring of the first flies touched but not killed by DDT. In suc ceeding generations they have built up their immunity; have turned DDT into DDE and DDA. These last are long-name harm less substances. Lindquist and his co-workers know they do it but they don't know how they do it. If they can learn that, a new insecticide whose death-dealing qualities cannot be changed by the flies then can be sought.

Most motorists don't know it, but when a car doesn't want to get started when it strains at every take-off . . . it's often because sticky gum is slowing down its engine. Most raw gasoline con tains impurities that form gum, and the only way to get them out is to refine them out. CHEVRON Supreme is the gasoline that's Supe r-Refined to remove that engine-sticking gum. Try it in your Until they learn it, the 14th generation of a fly that survives its first touch of DDT will be gin to show immunity. And the 58th generation will be almost wholly immune. Those 58 gen erations are no Ion g-term growth. Depending on weather, they could be reached in four or five years. Lindquist showed the pest control operators 79 th genera tion flies. He showed them, by the Geiger counter, that they had absorbed radio-active DDT. And they were fat and buzzing. He told them neither he nor Dr. Joseph S. Butts, head of the state college agricultural chem istry department who is work ing with him, could say how the flies do it. He said only that they hoped to find out. In the meantime, he said, they might try one of the newer in secticides, chlordane, in their fly-fight. He warned that it is dangerous around food and hence cannot be used generally. But it might help a bit, he said, to hold back the increas ing fly population until his or other experiments pay off.
