JThe AFL-ClO's political wing ad- vanced plans today for a mid September conference of union leaders from 22 of the nation's biggest cltios to open organized labor's activities In the 1964 cam paign. AFL-CIO leaders were consid v 'ered certain to rally behind Presi dent Kennedy's expected bid for a second four-year term and con duct another massivo get-out-thc-voto drive next year. Tlans for a Washington meet ing next month to bring together union representatives from met ropolitan areas with a population of ono million or more were scheduled for discussion by the " AKL-CIO Committee on Political Education (COPE). Members of the AFL-CIO exec utive Council and alxmt 20 presi dents of national unions were called to review the political out look. Some union officials said they feared the labor federation's hnnds-off policy toward the Aug. 28 civil rights march on Wash ington might drivo a wedge be tween the AFL-CIO and tlio Ne gro community. George Mcany, AFL-CIO presi dent, announced Uiat the council decided not to endorse or con demn the demonstration. But he said he would not participate and regarded the march as unwise since it might endanger President Kennedy's civil rights legislation. The council's neutrality dre hot protests from A. Philip Ran dolph, Its only Negro member, and Waltor P. Reuther, United Auto Workers president. They said the statement failed to rec . ognize what Randloph tcremed a "civil rights revolution" In the United States. : Pomona Grange :picnic planned The Deschutes Pomona Grange will hold its 1963 picnic at (lie Juvenile Grange camp, location oc tne lormer hkyliner Lodge, on 'Sunday, August 18.

On that night, without firing a shot, the clever bandit team hi jacked a U.S. mall truck en route from Cape Cod to the Federal Re serve Bank in Boston and fled with $1,551,277. To date, not one dollar of that money has been recovered nor one person arrested despite the efforts of a small army of postal Inspectors. William F. White, chief postal Inspector for New England, says he Is confident the robbery even tually will he solved and the ban dits apprehended. The Plymouth bandits waited until the mail truck, guarded by two men armed with pistols, passed along a lonely stretch of Route 3. Then they detoured traf fic with a road sign and robbed the truck In privacy. The postal service, which boasts a 99 per cent conviction record in its cases, has offered with the approval of Congress a $200,000 reward for solution of the case. The federal statute of limita tions la the case is six years, i plon mare of the Pacific All Arabian Show at Portland Mea dows and the Washington All Arabian Show at Yakima. To climax this year's success es, Ga'zima won tho Canadian Na tional Arabian Champion Mare Award at the Canadian National Arabian Show held in Calgary, Canada, July 27. This is the highest award given an Arabian mare or filly in Can ada. To be eligible to compete in a national Arabian champion class, the horse must have alrea dy won a championship or re serve championship in an Ara bian breeding Class A show. Mr. and Mrs. Walton, who own the dam and have raized Ga'zima, became Interested in the Arabian strain four years ago. They have only been showing their horses for one year. Next year they hope to take their prize-winner to various West Coast shows and possibly enter her In United States national com petition. Yalachi held at Fort Monmouth FORT MONMOUTH, N.J. (UPI Joseph Valachi, the underworld Informer who has been detailing crime syndicate activities to fed eral authorities, is being held un der guard at litis Army installa tion, a spokesman said today. Peter Hoffman, Fort Monmouth information officer, said, ". . .the best I can do is to simply con firm that Valachi is at Fort Mon mouth under the custody of the provost marshal." Fort Monmouth, an Army Sig nal Corps installation, has exten sive security facilities, due to '.he presence of secret electronic equipment. Valachi was reported under maximum security guard. Underworld sources reportedly have offered $100,000 to the man who slays him. A 22-page document detailing Valachi's testimony has been turned over to New York City au thorities, according to police. It supposedly describes the circum stances and gives names in 14 gangland killings there. Valachi is scheduled to testify Liter this month beforo the Senate investi gations subcommittee. Valachi, a convicted narcotics dealer and admitted killer, was imprisoned at the Atlanta federal penitentiary when he began to co operate with authorities. Appling charges rubber stamp in board action SALEM (UPI) In what Sec retary of State Howell Appling Jr. termed "a lousy bureaucratic procedure, the Beard of Control Tuesday gave its formal approval for construction of a new agricul ture building on the Capitol Mall. Appling said he favored the new building, but felt the board was being called upon to rubber stamp the action already taken by the legislature. "Fortunately I was interested in this matter, and attended the leg islative hearings," Appling ex plained, "otherwise we would have no choice but to hold public hear ings and go over the same ground again." Gov. Mark Hatfield offered to call such a hearing, but Appling declined. "It's a lousy bureaucratic pro cedure to require the Board of Controll to rubber stamp things of this sort," Appling commented. The board also authorized an of fer of $126,700 for seven pieces of privately owned property in the mall area. The property must be purchased by the state before construction of the agriculture building can begin. Plans Are Next The action today by the board legally paves the way for drafting of plans for the new structure. In other action, the board re fused a request from the Blue Mountain Community College board of trustees to change tlie wording of the deed transferring 175 acres of land near Pendleton to the college. Acting College President Wal lace W. McCrae said trustees feared the deed was too restric tive. The board recently sold 175 acres of Eastern Oregon State Hospital land' to the college for a campus site. The Board of Control disagreed that the deed was' restrictive, and referred the. group to the Justice Department which drafted the deed. The Board of Control postponed action on a request for release of $355,159 as the state's share of county administered community mental health clinics operating costs for the 1963-64 fiscal year. The board said it wanted some Indication from the Emergency Board that funds would be avail able for the program during the 1964-65 fiscal year. The approval from the Emergency Board will be sought at the scheduled Sept. 6 meeting. Southern Oregon gas users get rate reduction SALEM (UPI) A 20 per cent rate cut for natural gas customers in Roseburg, Grants Pass, Med ford, Ashland and other towns in the California-Pacific Utility Com pany's Southern Oregon division was announced this week. Public Utility commissioner Joncl C. Hill said the rate cut, totaling $238,814, will go into effect when Cal-Pac's existing customers are switched from manufactured to natural gas this fall. Hill said the firm tentatively plans on having natural gas avail able in Roseburg about Sept. 16, provided that construction of the El Paso Natural Gas Co. line from Eugene is not delayed. Natural gas should be available In Grants Pass, Medtord and Ash land sometime during the first half of October, he said. Hill pointed out that the new tariffs filed by Cal-Pac arc identi cal to those in effect in Klamath Falls. Oregon joins fight to curb school drop-outs SALEM (IT!) Thn Kt.ito Piih. lie Welfare Commission has joined in a nationwide nrntfrnm tn rnrh school drop-outs, Uie commission announced Tuesday. The State Department of Educa tion announced Mnnrlnv it harf thrown its support behind the pro gram recommended by President Kennedy. It was pointed out that lack of education was a principle cause of unemployment among families requiring puhlic assistance. Oregon Is starting a special pro gram of vocational education for welfare recipients, authorized by the last legislature. Rnt Atstttnnt Welfare Administrator Geraldine Derby said today, "prevention would certainly be better than try ing to fill in the gaps later." A change in welfare policy to permit children to keep a part of their summer earnings for special school expenses is expected to of fer some added incentive for chil dren In assistance families to con tinue their education. NOT JUST FOR DRESS STOCKTON, Calif. (I'PI) Charles Hawkins, chairman of the San Joaquin County Board of Supervisors, suggested Tuesday that county employes be required to wear uniforms so the public would recognize public servants on Uie street, in coffee shops and in taern.. when they should be "minding the store." !
