22 Capital Journal, Salem, Ore., Wednesday, Apr. 16, 1952 . Council Talks On School Help A resolution pertaining to the opening and closing dates of schools In Marion county was referred to a committee for atudy and recomendations at recent meeting of the Wil lamette Farm Labor council. It will be up for consideration at the next council conference. It was pointed out during discussion that opening and closing dates of school affect materially the supply of avail able local help in connection with the harvesting of straw berries and hops. Experience has shown, council members claim, that the presence of stu dents in the field means that older relatives are also working. When students depart, their Coast Guard to the Rescue Helocopter crewmen of the Coast Guard were called upon to rescue Paul Maugheiner, 39, who was trapped by flood waters in a ranch home near Pierre, S. D. Maugheiner, who was handicapped with a broken leg, chopped a hole in the roof and crawled out (left) to wait for rescue. At right he dangles in midair as the 'copter carries him from the rooftop to waiting ambulance. (Tele-photo) relatives go with them. The committee appointed to make a study of the matter is headed by Cornelius Bateson, president of the farm labor council. The matter of providing a place with rest room facilities where agricultural workers can be picked up by farmers was broached. No such facilities ex ists at the Salem office of the state employment service which operates a loading dock for workers. W. H. Baillie, employment of fice manager, said he did not know whether the securing of an adequate site for the con. gregation of agricultural work ers was a city or state problem. Dentists Short In Armed Forces Milwaukee, (P) The armed forces is faced with a shrinking supply of dentists and by July 1 will start calling up those in priority three, says Brig. Gen. Louis Renfrow. Renfrow, deputy director of selective service, said Tuesday that the pool of priority one and two dentists is diminishing rapidly. Dentists in all three categor ies have been trained partly or entirely at government expense and have had less than the re- Obscure Leather Merchant Has Unusual Success in France By PHIL NEWSOM (United Preu Foreign An.ly.t) An obscure leather manufac-.to halt the damaging spiral of turer is succeeding in France where the professional politi cians have failed. Premier Antoine Pinay has rammed an unpopular $10,000,' 000,000 budget through both French houses. And he forced the frequently ungovernable and bumptious French General Assembly to accept his pro gram unchanged a feat ac complished by no other since the end of the war. Furthermore, he Is forcing a realignment of French political parties, and he has a chance to give France its first stable government in many years. The belief is gaining strength that Pinay either is a miracle man or a very lucky one. Pinay had been in public life for 20 years when he sud denly was summoned to take over the French government. Yet so silent had the timid appearing little man with the small mustache been that many of his colleagues didn't even know who he was. Pinay knew little of interna tional problems when he took office. Yet he believed that France had made firm com mitments on defense and that these must be kept. He also knew that the French govern ment was bankrupt and that money must be found. Two of his predecessors had fallen on the issue of the French budget and their demand for a 10 to 15 per cent increase in taxes. Another of Pinay's tasks was quired amount of military serv ice after professional training. Priority three includes all dentists, except veterans, who are under 50 years of age and veterans if their service was prior to dentistry training. inflation which was ruining the French franc. Pinay avoided a demand for new taxes, but campaigned in sted for collection of taxes levied but uncollected and on money which had been in hid ing since the days of the Ger man occupation. To do this, he proposed to forgive past taxes but to set up severe penalties for any future failure to pay. He proposed an idea revolu tionary to Frenchmen Jail terms for tax evasion. He sought the cooperation of small businessmen like himself to hold down prices and he sought to reinstill confidence in the franc. So far he has been successful remarkably so. "Save the Franc" signs plas ter French shop windows, and Pinay, because of his price cut ting program, is cheered by news reel audiences. Of course, there is the suspicion that most price cuts are bogus and that under the "Save the Franc" campaign, shopkeepers are un loading poor quality or hard- to-sell items. Food prices are edging up again. Thus Pinay s work still is cut out for him. Gov. Warren fo Be in Oregon Later in Month Sacramento, Calif, (ff) Gov. Earl Warren will be campaign ing in Oregon for the republican presidential nomination before the month is over. He told a news conference Tuesday that he expects to spend a considerable amount of time in the state seeking Oregon's 18 republican delegates. Second Story For Building A second story will be added to a new building, built about a year ago at 1465 North Capi tol, if the city council approveS tentative approval given Tues-i day night by the city planning and zoning commission. The building is owned by V. J. Osko for his insurance offices. The second story would be used for rental -purposes. The ap proval of the commission is con tingent on Osko's agreeing not to convert a large garage on the property to office use. He will be given a hearing before the commission May 20. Also to have a hearing May 20 will be Giles Smith who wants to change from a residential to a special business zone a lot on the south side of Center, just east of the Marble Service sta tion. He said prospective ten ants are in the radio-television, clothing, hardware, appliance, confectionery and clinic busi nesses. The commission returned to Francis Smith a proposed plat for about 60 residential lots on the west side, north of Edgewa- ter and east of Cascade drive. Smith was told to alter provi sion for streets and lot arrangements. The commission passed favor ably on an application of Mrs. Alma Dunn who proposes to op erate beauty shop at 118 0 North 17th in a district that is otherwise residential. The shop is in a garage that has been rebuilt and a zone change is necessary for her to carry on the business. The city council will have to approve the com mission's action. City Attorney Chris J. Kowitz, who Is a member of the zoning commission, was authorized to get a preliminary draft of the new zoning code into shape for the commission's study.
