After winding his fingers In the mask and throwing the hooded one about the ring, Plluso opened up with three sonnenburgs and applied a body press to even the match. Plluso continued to carry the fight to the Mask, who appeared groggy as Plluso again opened up with sonnenburgs. After taking four of these In his mid riff, the Mask dropped under neath the fifth and Plluso went crashing head-first Into a turn buckle. The blow on the head dazed him and the Mask fell on top for a body press and the match. Tex Porter gave Pete Belcas tro a tough match before the Weed Assassin gained a fall with his deadly surfboard In the third round. Porter was unable to an swer the bell for the fourth. Bulldog Jackson and Earl Ma lone went to a draw with each gaining a fall in the three-round opener. Jackson, during the main event, climbed Into the ring be tween the first and second falls and poured advice into Plluso's car until ejected by Referee Earl Yoakley. He then took to heck ling the Mask from beside the Ting until city police took him back among the spectators and kept him there. More than 23,000 prisoners of war will be available to supple ment local labor forces in the harvesting and processing of fruits and vegetables, the War Manpower Commission says.

ENGINES TO GO Detroit (U.B Automobiles that will run 190,000 miles or more without reborlng or replac ing engine blocks are predicted by the Budd Induction Heating Co., Inc., through heat treatment of cylinder walls and bearing surfaces. Chief Engineer Howard E. Somes revealed that heat-treated cylinders used by the Caterpillar Tractor Co., Peoria, 111., under severe' wartime condtlons have stood up three to ten times as long as untreated cylinders. "To passenger car owners, this means that-an automobile engine that formerly had an average life of 50,000 miles can be expected to run at least ISO, 000 miles under normal condi tions without excessive wear," Somes said. Ordinary good quality cast Iron, known to the Industry as "gray Iron," takes on the quality of hard steel through induction heat treatment, Somes said, with standard procedures that give the casting file hardness at a predetermined depth where needed. Now Used In Munitions In the plant, where powerful generators produce high - fre quency alternating current, Somes showed the process In op eration. now concentrated on nroductlon of munitions. An induction coil, slightly smaller than the Inside of the part to be hardened, goes inside the piece for one ana one-nan to two seconds, followed Imme diately with "quenching" by cold water, controlled for tem perature and amount. . Process is Automatic . ' A single operation, the proc ess Is largely automatic and com' pletely controlled for current, time, temperature and depth ana area of hardness. When removed from the machine after harden ing, the piece will show any de fects in the original metal to the naked eye without microscopic examination or other tests. "Until the advent of the Budd Co, process, inside treating was not considered commercially practlable," Somes said. "By this method, now in dally produc tion, we raise the temperature of metal from 70 degrees room temperature to 1,600 and 1,800 degrees Fahrenheit in one to one and one-half seconds." Among postwar automotive applications of the process Somes listed treatment of engine components made as integral parts such as bearing races. valve seats, internal gears and splines. while a better product is the first consideration, Somes said mass production of induction hardened parts Inevitably will result in lower cost and a far superior automobile for a com parable price.

SO (U.B Two state senators a republican and a democrat each Is working hard to gain the presidency of the new senate, which will con vene in January, 1949. Sen. Rex Ellis, R., Umatilla county, and Sen. Thomas Ma honey, D., Portland, started full pledged campaigns for the of fice after the general election Tuesday completed the roster of i the legislature. Political observers believed Ellis is the logical president of the senate, as that body is com posed of 29 republicans to only five democrats. Another Dossible contender for the seat is Sen. Howard H. Bel- ton, Clackamas county, who was considered for the job during the Stelwer-Lee deadlock vote dur ing the last legislature. Other senators who might have a chance at heading the upper house are Coe McKenna, Multnomah; William waisn, Marshfleld, and Earl Newbry of Jackson county. - Eugene Marsh of McMlnnvllie appeared to be assured of being the speaker of the house of rep resentatives. John Hall, Portland house member who had the support of several members of the coming session, released his pledges to Marsh, after a conference with the McMlnnvllie legislator here yesterday. Previous to Hall's ac tion, It was understood, Marsh already had at least 81 of the 60 house members pledged to him. Hall is expected to be appoint ed chairman of the Important house committee on judiciary.. Senator Newbry stated today that a number of his friends and fellow legislators had communi cated with him regarding the matter of running for the sen ate presidency but that he was not making an active campaign at the present. ' "Developments of the next two or three weeks will determine the matter," Newbry stated. The senator served two ses sions as a member of the house of representatives from . the sixth district and then was elect ed to a four-year senate term two years ago. He resides in Ashland and is an orchard own er and warehouseman of that district. BEING CASHED IN ' Washington, Nov. 10 U,R The treasury is seriously con slderlng abandonment of its re cently inaugurated simplified program of war bond redemption because it has resulted in a heavy increase In cash-Ins by individual bond owners, the United Press learned today. Redemptions through the over-the-counter policy, instead of tapering off gradually as expect ed by government officials, have continued at record high levels since the program went Into ef fect on October 2. During the first week of No vember, sales Just barely topped redemptions, sggregattng $110, 741,000 against $109,352,000.

Babson Babson Park, Mass., Nov. 10 (S p e c 1 a 1 Correspondence) Notwithstanding the results of Tuesday, I now make some pre dictions as to what will happen at Washington during the next four years. These forecasts- as sume the republicans and con servative democrats will com bine to control congress. Taxes Will Be ' Materially Lower -Taxes will materially be re duced. A reduction in excess profits taxes will come shortly after the collapse of Germany. Most "nuisance" taxes will be eliminated. Corporation taxes will later be put back nearly to pre-war figures. Personal In come taxes should be reduced: but these will be the last to be lowered. There will be no attempt to balance the budget. This is some thing to aim for, but it will be done slowly. Too radical cuts could cause deflation which, at, this time, would be worse than Inflation. The United States will, however, diligently work for a better financial setup for which we all should be thankful. Length of Peace Is Anybody's Guess ,. Great Britain, Russia and the United States will combine and hold the peace so long as they remain friends. (China may or may not be admitted to the inner counsels.) How long these three great nations will remain friends. Lis anybody's guess. Other nations will be admitted to some sort of world organization; but they will not have much to say. , Congress will pass legislation so that our navy and air force can act In emergencies with out the formal declaration of war. But this is a feeble step to ward permanent peace. This can be secured only as all nations are willing to give up certain rights as to tariffs, immigration restrictions, natural resource monopolies, etc. I see no sign that the ln-comlng administra tion at Washington will do this. Honeymoon Over For Farmer, Labor Both farmers and union labor have had their honeymoons. Both will get less consideration during the next four years. We may, therefore, expect lower farm prices and only a few If any wage raises. Certainly the total income of both groups will be much less. The hourly rate for wages may not be cut; but "overtime" will be out the window. We will go back to the 40-hour week. 1 strongly advise both farmers and wage workers to begin imme diately to "save up money for a rainy day." It surely is coming. Moreover, this would still be true If the election had gone the other way. Free Enterprise Will Be Tested Both candidates at heart be lieved in "free enterprise" ' so long as lt will keep people env ployed. When, however, lt does Biavnrn whispet iiik LANSDOW.M SI PROOF DISTOXKRT In Sunday Film iSssslil, i n i ill- eluding Fredrie March, Alexis Smith, Donald Crisp, Alan Hale and C. Aubrey Smith. Next Four Years not prevent unemployment the voters surely will demand that something be done. This1 "some thing" will be quack remedies contrary to the spirit of free enterprise. Certainly, much will be done for the returning soldiers, sail ors and airmen. Some of this aid will be uneconomic and waste ful;' but Washington will be driven to it. Such action- will help along the inevitable Infla tion and some day cause us a lot of trouble. This,, however, should not come until around 1950. Masses of World Declared on March In short, conditions make presidents; rather than do presi dents make conditions. The masses of the entire world are on the march. Neither Roosevelt nor Dewey nor an undecided election can stop them. It Is mistake to try to block them as did Avery of Montgomery Ward; it is a mistake to cheer them as have many politicians during the past two months. The wise men, will attend to his own business, keep out of debt, educate his children to be useful and wait for these masses to learn their lesson through experience. As to the effect of the elections on the markets, I expect no more changes than have already oc curred. I am bearish on muni cipals and other high grade bonds; but am still bullish on most well-selected stocks. I do, however, not like the rails, air crafts or shipping stocks for the next four years.
