Labor Editor of Oregonian Dies PORTLAND OB Frpd r. Tav. lor, labor editor of The Oregonian, who began his newspaper career 46 years ago, died in a hospital Thursday night. He was 66.

Taylor had been ailing recently with emphysema, a lung disease preventing effective absorption of oxygen. He remained on the job through last week. BURIAL BONUS GREENSBORO. N.C. (UP)-An advertisement bv Hareett's Fu neral Home in Friday's morn ing newspaper announced: "We give Top Value stamps." Merchants are watching repay ments particularly today. They hope that more people soon will be making that final happy pay ment on the big Items they bought on the cuff in 195S. The trouble is that in that day of easy terms, many bought cars with payments scattered over so many months that they'll be in hock for some time to come. With prices rising since 19SS more than the incomes of many persons, they may be tough customers to sell. - The two .striking things about the course of consumer credit as charted by the Federal Reserve Board are: 1. That the extension of some 3Vt billion dollars of new Install ment credit in March barely tops repayments. 2. That the increase in total in stallment credit outstanding went up just 40 million dollars in the month. A year before it rose by 197 million in March, and in the exuberant month of March 1955 the gam was 477 million dollars. The total outstanding on the cuff now is 31V4 billion dollars, about 2V4 billion more than a year ago. Total consumer credit is 40i4 bil lion dollars, up 2V billion from a year ago. The drop in home buildine this year has also cut the amount of new mortgage debt being assumed. At the same time some Amer icans keep adding to their sav ings. As a result of this policing of personal budgets the cry for fed eral controls over credit has about subsided. Boy Attempts To Set Tokyo Palace Ablaze TOKYO IB-News got out today that a teen-age boy making a li quor delivery to the imperial pal ace two months ago tried to set the place afire. vlt was the first time on record that any Japanese had sought to do harm to Emperor Hirohi to's home. Police hushed the case up until now. The boy set fire to a two-story building used for storage of furni ture. A palace spokesman said the interior was badly damaged, but that the flames did not threaten the imperial residence some dis tance away. Police said the boy told them he had seen a palace destroyed by flames in the Japanese movie A cobweb Palace and thought i real palace fire would be "a magnificent sight." The boy is in jail awaiting trial. , I Woman Tells False Charge PORTLAND (UP)-Mrs. Donna L.
