The AFL groups have filed complaints with the regional of fices of the national labor rela tions board charging Hlgglns with intimidations and coercion of their members. They accused Hlgglns of discharging seven worker! for union activity and the company with dominating the New Employes' association, an independent union. Hlgglns said that AFL protests over a Hlgglns maritime com mission ship contract andother Jurisdictional difficulties," had caused cancellation of the con tracts.

TUTTLE DESCRIBE PEAR MARKETING The growth of the winter pear Industry in this aea, and meth ods of handling and marketing this highly 'perishable commod ity, were discussed at Tuesday's luncheon meeting of Jhe Med ford Rotary club by S. M. Tuttle, general manager .of Southern Oregon Sales. Speaking at the Hotel Medford, Tuttle revealed that Oregon has seven per cent of U. S. pear trees, yet produced 14 per cent of the nation's pears. The growing importance of the winter pear industry is indicated by the fact that 3,500,000 boxes were grown on the Pacific coast last year. The pear Industry Is the most highly organized of any , agri cultural group, Tuttle sa,id. The Oregon, Washington, - California Pear bureau, established to as sist in marketing Pacific coast pear crops, has been an import ant factor in creating domestiol absorption of half the produc tion formerly sent into export markets. Livine room temperature is Ideal for ripening fruit after it has been normally pVe-cooled. Tuttle pointed out. To provide the necessary high humidity for best ripening it was suggested that a wet towel be placed over the fruit. In discussing the band ling of fruit from the orchards, the speaker stressed the Import ance of speedy handling and correct pre-coollng. Exhaustive research is now underway in the new unique "pre-heating" process, calling for four to five days at temperatures above 90 degrees. This new process stays later decay and enhances the flavor of table pears. v Camp White Dance Schedule ' ' Thursday Regular informal dance at Service Club No. 2 with music furnished by the Rhythmaires.
