EFFORTS OF CIO
0 RAPPED BY GILL
Opposition to Attempted
Organizing of Dairymen
Strong and Speedy.
Mllwaukle, June 16 (P At
tempts by John L. Lewis, United
Mine Workers to organize Ore
gon dairymen were condemned
, Uav W. Gill, retiring Oregon
State Grangemaster, yesterday.!
Gill told the 69th annual State
Grange convention that he was
"pleased to note that he (Lewis),
did not have the support of the
national AFL or the regular
.-.branch of the CIO; neither did
Dhe have the support of these or-1
ganizations in Oregon."
The UMW movement appar
ently failed to make much head
way Gill said.
Opposition Speedy
"The astonishing strength and
speed with which the farm and
: cooperative organization of the
country united In opposition to
the movement of Mr. Lewis,
ought to settle this question for
a long time."
Gill advised farmers to Join
the national farm groups and co
operative agriculture associa
tions if they "expect to make
progress through organization."
He said the Oregon State
Grange has played a leading
part in making Oregon an ex-!
ample of good larmer-iaDor re
lationships in contrast to Wash
ington, Idaho and California
where there has been "bitter
conflict" betweert the farmers
and labor.
Gill said that "In the present
war situation, laborers wheth
er organized or not-should real
lize the tremendous handicaps
that agriculture faces in labor
shortage."
American farmers know no
short hours, he said. If they
did the people of this nation and
her allies would face starvation.
No Time To Strike
'This is no time for strikes or
unreasonable demands and dur
ing this emergency restrictions
applied to hours of labor should
be subject to reasonable relaxa
tion so that fullest production
can be obtained.
"But what we say of labor we
say with equal force to business
and professional men. - We . es
farmers ask only the opportun
V'ty to produce all the food re
quired and receive enough to re
imburse' us for our costs of pro
duction. "The publie should realize
that a large proportion of the
returns received by the farmer
are simply a payment for the
labor of himself and family."
Gill, state Grangemaster for
10 years will retire at this con
vention. Morton Tompkins,
former Grange overseer, will be
installed as master Friday night.
Bird Is Puzzle
To Truck Driver
San Francisco, Cal. (U.R)
Oscar Del Sarto, truckman, has
a mystery bird that he would be
glad to have some one take off
his hands. The bird lit on his
. truck and rode home with him.
No ornithologist in the city
has been able to identify It. In
m the meantime he has named it
V "P-38" because it takes off like
an army plane a short run,
then a lift Into the air. But it
always comes back to him.
Furthermore, it looks sad, eats
little and likes to sit in a dark
corner.

WHAT TO DO IN AN AIR RAID
1. In any air raid or blackout, take cover immediately.
(A) If you are away from home, get off the street. You
are 10 times safer in a building than standing or walking on
the street. If you are in a car, pull to the side o! the road im
mediately. Do not double park. Keep clear of fire plugs. Get
out of the car, bus, or street car and take shelter.
(B) If you are at home, take immediate blackout precau
tions. Extinguish all lights. Have your fire protection equip
ment ready. Go to your blackout room; it should be the
safest room in your home. Stay away from windows. Bomb
explosions shatter glass for considerable distances.
2- Don't use the telephone. Remember those persons
who have been trained to protect you the air raid wardens,
fire watchers, auxiliary firemen, auxiliary police and many
others, must be able to get really important messages through.
Your personal calls have got to wait until after the all-clear
signal.
3. If you are caught in the open He down on your
stomach. You are twice as safe lying down as standing up.
4. If incendiary bombs fall, play a coarse spray of water
on them. Put out the fires started by the incendiaries first,
then devote your attention to the bomb. The coarse spray of
water burns the bomb up faster. A heavy Jet, stream or bucket
of water will make the bomb explode. If you have no way of
treating the bombs with water, cover it with dry sand. Then
with a blunt nosed shovel scoop the bomb onto a pile of sand,
dump the sand and bomb into a pail and take it outside.
5. Remember, obey your air raid warden and other mem
bers of the United States Citizens Defense corps, they are try
ing to help you.
