Byers, recently named co ordinator for the farm labor council. Byers and Claude Litchfield, farm labor market man for the employment service, will attend the conferences. Monday noon in the Marine room of the Marion hotel, hop growers will meet with the co ordinator. Strawberry, cane fruit and other berry growers will meet at 8 o'clock Monday night in the Blue Lake cannery cafe teria.

Growers are being urged to at tend their divisionl conferences. Hop Growers Protest Pad Portland, March 21 ffl The transfer of hop marketing rights from one grower to another un- der the diversion privilege of the federal hop marketing agree- ment, was sharply criticized by hop growers discussing tne mar keting program. Any type of diversion priv ilege defeats the purpose of the progrem, Milo Lesh, Yakima. manager of the Washington state hop growers cooperative, told a hearing on proposed agreement amendments. His view was supported by other Washington growers. One, William Kamashe, Yakima, said he got more for marketing cer tificates on 40 acres of unhar- vested crops than for the 40 acres of hops he harvested. Laurence Brulotte, another Yakima grower, told the hearing the small grower is restricted by the diversion privilege, but that the big growers who can lease additional acreage to get more marketing rights are helped. Two Oregon growers, Harvey Kaser, Silverton, and Eugene McCarthy, Salem, testified they bought diversion certificates from other growers so they could market their own surplus hops last year. West coast growers are con- siderine 18 proposed changes in the marketing agreement, ine diversion privilege is the most controversial. California and Idaho growers favor a proposal to limit diver sion to half of a grower's unhar- vested crop. We have nice young turkeys for your Easter dinner, 45c Dound. Cheaper than ham.

This is the estimate of Richard C. Stlllwell, manager of the Salem office of the U.S. bureau of old age and survivors insurance. Unless the persons Involved make application before April 1 they will lose benefits of last September. Under the law the agency can reach back no more than six months to make pay ments. Many persons who are protect ed under the act do not realize that they are entitled to monthly checks, states Stlllwell. He sug gests that those who feel they may be covered contact his of fice, located in the post office building. A thorough investiga tion will then be made. Stillwell states that every pos sible clue is being run down by his office In order that those en titled to compensation may re ceive it. The federal security adminis tration in Washington, D.C., esti mates that there are some 100,- 00 newly eligible oldsters who may lose tneir iirst montn s checks. Big Week-end At Air Facility Salem's Naval Air Facility the past weekend had one of the biggest, if not the biggest week end, since opening here in the fall of 1949.

Disorderly conduct: Charles Humrlch, 3W Locust, fined m. Cherryland (Continued from Page 1) M. B. Rudd suggested that in stead of the festival given the past four years Salem have a celebration for the opening of tne state fair, with the city dec orated and a parade arranged. Leonard L. Kremen, whose thinking was somewhat the same as Rudd's also stated that he felt the present deficit should be cleaned up and said that he be lieved, that it could be if the merchants were properly ap proached. Don Madison, who also said that he thought it was the as sociation's duty to see that the bills were paid, felt that a cele bration at the opening of the state fair would prevent the Cherryland f estival association from having any sources of rev enue. In favor of continuing a festi val was Herb Barker. He stated that talk of discontinuing it was a defeatist attitude and thought Salem should be identified with the festival and if a festival were going to be held it should be in cherry time and not at hop time. Barker said that Salem ought to be able to carry the load for one celebration a year, noting that the city should build for a big ger and better one instead of talking about a last one. A long range plan for pledges was suggested by Clay Cochran, secretary of the Chamber of Commerce, for financing a festi val, and Cochran said that he felt the shows had been very worthwhile. The president of the Salem Chamber of Commerce, Ed Schreder said, "I feel very keen ly about this indebtedness and I don't believe there is a merchant in town who does not." He sug gested that they get organized to liquidate it. Schreder felt that maybe if the festival was continued it should not be on a yearly bases, perhaps every oth er year and then should have all organizations behind it 100 .per cent. Robert Fenix, first vice presi dent of the Chamber, suggested that a broader organization with more organizations represented would bring more support for a festival. He then noted that the public should be informed of its values. Pearson Seeks (Continued from Page 1) 'Alexander has been good administrator," Pearson said, but what we need is a penolo gist and I favor hiring both an administrator and a penologist." Explosive Situation It is common knowledge around the capitol that trouble is brewing at the penitentiary, having simmered for weeks. Recently there was a small scale hunger strike at the prison followed by a small uprising in the prison yard. However, Pearson said these Incidents were only a mild indi cation of conditions now exist ing, adding, "we are literally sit ting on a keg of dynamite." Senate Investigation The board Tuesday discussed at length the demands made by inmates of the penitentiary and recommendations made to the senate committee by the Oregon Prison association. The senate committee on insti tutions,' headed by Sen. Vernon Bull of La Grande, has been making an intensive study of the conditions at the penitentiary and is expected to make recommen dations to the board of control within a few days. ' Combat Casualties Up 1165 in Week Washington, March 21 W) Announced U. S. combat cas ualties in Korea rose today to 55,814, an Increase of 1,165 since last week. The defense department's weekly summary, based on cas ualties whose next of kin recciv ed notice through March 16, re I In Philippines Manila, March :i W) U. S. Ambassador Myron M. Cowen tonight warned Americans in re mote areas to take precautions for their safety. His warning followed his in vestigation of the executions last night of two Americans one of them from Oregon and an Aus tralian by communist-led Huk balahaps 15 miles east of Manila. An eyewitness told Cowen the three were bound and shot to death after 50 hukbalahaps loot ed their dairy farm. Army patrols directed by De fense Secretary Ramon Magsay say clashed today with 50 Huks, reported to be the raiding band. The Huks escaped. The slain Americans were John Hardie, a native of Condon, Ore.; his wife, Irene Wilkins Hardie, reported a native of Hil mar, Calif., and Australian Don ald Capuano, their farm man ager. Paul Day, a mechanic at the dairy, said 50 Huks looted the ce, then left a 10-man execu tion squad which tied their vic tims hands, marched them into the yard and shot them down with automatic weapons. Day said he and 35 Filipino employes were kept under guard while the Huks looted the place, then killed the three. Cowen expressed concern over the killings. He visited the scene today. He said he calmed the fears of some Americans who had expressed doubt the Filipino army could protect them. John Hardie, slain in the Phil ippines, was a brother of James A. Hardie, who lives in Salem at 1748 B street and Is with the state highway department; also a brother of State Senator Stew art Hardie of Condon. Other survivors are brothers Will and Alex, Condon; and four sisters, Mrs. Charles Palmer and Mrs. Grace Stenchfeld, Condon Mrs. Madge Scull, Moro, and Mrs. Adolph Andries, San Fran cisco. Condon, March 21 (IP) Hardie was a member of a prominent family of eastern Oregon. An Oregon State college grad uate, ne served in the Philip pines in World War II with the rank of captain. He taught school ana operated a dairy at Hilmar. Calif., before the war. He was married in California. Much of the equipment and stock on the Hardie dairy farm was snipped to Manila from Con don. Coslello Again (Continued from Page 1) With the same sullen stub. bornness lie has displayed when the matter came up previouslv. Coslello said the committee was asking for information it had no right to. "I refused before," Costello said. "I'm not going to answer that question. The gambler, labeled by the committee as head of a national crime syndicate, pictured him self to the committee as one now engaged in purely legitimate business. In Broiler Business And he said he wasn't Coing to talk about what assets he has. Costello pictured himself as a promoter of Jet broilers for the benefit of housewives with small apartments. He conceded before the senate crime committee the jet broiler business hadn't taken up much of his time so far. "It's in its infancy," he said. "It's just started." The broiler was described as an infra red broiler for use in apartment houses, but Costello said ho didn't understand it's mechanical details. Prior to Costcllo's appearance, the committee issued a second invitation to New York Gov. Thomas E. Dewey to appear be fore it about gambling at Sara toga Springs, N.Y. Sen. Charles Toboy (R., N.Y.) said Costello's refusal to answer "makes us suspicious and I don't want to be suspicious." 'The world can't think well of a man who covers up," he added. Costello had disclosed he has around $150,000 in cash in his home safe and in two bank ac counts, but beyond that, he con tended his holdings are his own affair. "Do you have a safe deposit box anyhere else other than in your home? asked Committee counsel Rudolph Halley. Costello stared at the ceiling momentarily, blinking into the white, hot glare of Khcg lights. Then he said in his hoarse, thin voice: "No." ported 8,335 killed in action, 36,- 893 wounded and 10,586 missing in action. The wounded total includes 959 who later died. Of those re ported missing, 85 are nkown dead. This brings to 9.379 the to tal number ot deaths. The missing total also lnclud ed 1,027 who havo returned to U.

Half Chance to Avoid War, Eckhardt Tells Audience By FRED ZIMMERMAN Dr. Tibor Eckhardt, former member of the Hungarian parlia ment and unquestionably the most brilliant person yet to appear before the Salem Knife and Fork club, gave a forthright and deadly serious talk concerning the political, ideological and potential military struggle in Europe, Tuesday night, Dr. Eckhardt, at the outset of his address, remarked that lt is obvious by this time that it is much more difficult to work out a satisfactory peace treaty than lt is to win a war. In this connec tion he believes there remains a 50 percent chance to avoid war between the western world and Russia. However, the United States remains the only country that is powerful enough to suc cessfully assume the role of "the last hope of the world. The most serious mistake the allies made at the close of World War II was their failure to main. tain military strength in Europe, asserted Dr. Eckhardt. Since force is the only thing that im presses an Oriental mind like that of Stalin, a show of mili tary power would have kept the communists in bounds. Present Set-up Can't Remain Partition of Europe into two parts, an arrangement to which the United States was a party, cannot remain, declared Dr. Eckhardt. "Either Russia will grab all of Europe or, if con vinced that war would be fatal to its aspiration, it will retreat behind its own boundaries." The provision that Marshall plan money could not be used for military purposes was anoth er mistake, in the opinion of the former Hungarian official. The allied plan of forming political parties to the neglect of military strength was quickly seized upon by Stalin who now is able to exert armed force pressure upon all countries bordering on Rus- sia. Dr. Eckhardt pointed out that by July 1 Hungary alone will have 12 divisions. This is one more than the United States has under arms. btalin was pictured as a shrewd calculating Oriental who always trys the less dangerous methods of gaining his ends "The greatest pr o g r e s s at the least cost. The United States has the ability to restore confidence and self reliance among the Euro pean peoples. Not by military strength alone but by political. religious and cultural ideas" can this be accomplished. Questioned concerning the United Nations, Dr. Eckhardt replied that while the organiza tion is not perfect it is entirely necessary and could easily pro vide the ground work for world peace. "Obviously, he added, com promise is impossible where mo ral issues are involved. We speak the same words as the Russians, but the words do not mean the same." 26,207 Damage Suit For Injured Boy A $28,207.86 damage suit, arising from an accident in which a car struck a three and a half year-old boy, was filed in Marion county circuit court Wednesday by the boy's father. R. L. Phillips, father of James Phillips, filed the complaint, listing T. M. Gosscr as defen dant. The complaint alleges that on September 19, 195(1, on Geer road, Gosscr was negligent in the operation of his motor vehicle, and that he caused an accident in which the car struck young Phillips, causing various perma nent injuries. The complaint seeks general damages of $25,000, and special damages ot $1,207.66. Jr. h In Salem for about a 10-day U.S. Tank Force (Continued from Page 1 AP Correspondent Tom Brad- shaw reported from the central front that the United Nations troops were unapposed by the vanishing enemy. He said arm ored patrols were probing the area between the malnn allied lines and parallel 38. Earlier reports placed Ameri can units five miles south of Chunchon. From Eighth army headquar ters AP Correspondent Leif Er ickson reportde: "In pulling back from Chunchon, the Chinese communists apparently havo withdrawn their main forces back north o fthe 38th parallel.' On the east-central front, Am erican artillery and planes dec imated a small enemy concentra tion forming for an attack north west of Pangam. About half the 200 Reds were killed. A British general told Eighth army correspondents the Reds would not regain the Initiative in Korea. Lt. Gen. Richard Nel son, director general of training in the British army ,sald the U.N. forces are slowly and methodic ally pursuing their own course. At Chunchon, thousands oi sol diers moved up behind the spear heading tanks. AP Correspond ent William C. Barnard said they found the city a bomb-gutted ru ins. Entire blocks had been levelled by B-29 raids. The business dis trict was hardest hit. Only 5,000 persons were left in the once populous city. Chinese prisoners were taken south of the city and in Chun chon Itself. American jet fighters rocketed and machine-gunned the Chun chon area as the tanks rumbled down the last mountain pass into the valley. Senate Votes (Continued from Page 1) Mahonev said that Governor Doudlas McKay believes, In view of the Multnomah county grand jury investigation of the liquor commission, that passage of the bill would reflect upon the com mission. So Mahoney said he would wait two years to try to get the bill passed. The senate public welfare committee introduced a bill to provide for work camps in state forests for prison convicts. It calls for an appropriation of $250,000, so will be considered by the joint ways and means committee. Butter Two Cents Lower .
