NLRB Bargaining
Election July 7
A new election to determine
whether or not the local Team'
sters union will be bargaining
agent for non-seasonal employees
at Bear Creek orchards will be
held on Friday, July 7, at the
county courthouse, the current
Issue of the Oregon Teamster re

Polls will be open from 11
a m. to 1 p.m., and from S to (I
p.m. Employees on the payroll
immediately prior to June 8 will
be able to vote, the Teamster
said.
Union Protest
The new vote was ordered by
the national labor relations board
after it upheld union protests
against the conduct of the pre
vious election, which defeated
the union. The union's challenge
list was said unacceptable by the
election examiner, and this de
cision was overruled by the
NLRB In Washington.
The NLRB is still considering
certification of another election
held at the same time as the Bear
Creek election, involving work
ers at Southern Oregon Sales
Inc., the Teamster said. The un
ion also protested that election.

Sears Roebuck ana Medford
Mayor Diamond Flynn's report to the city council
Tuesday night concerning his recent interview with
a Sears Roebuck official should serve to clear the at
mosphere regarding the company's plans for the site
on South Riverside avenue.
a a a e o
"THE land was purchased some time ago for the an-
nounced purpose of constructing a large store
and a number of dwellings were removed soon after
the lots were acquired. Although it appeared at that
time that construction would start immediately, noth
ing has since been done.
THE official informed Mayor Flynn that his com-
pany has no immediate plans for construction and
he also stated that rumors that Sears Roebuck has
been seeking a highway site between this city and
Talent are completely without foundation.
. e . .
IUST what caused the big merchandising concern
to change its plans regarding a Medford installa
tion has.never been completely explained. It is under
stood, however, that the company's expansion pro
gram was altered somewhat immeditely after the war
to provide for concentration on larger centers of pop
ulation.
It is also understood that as money becomes avail
able for future store building the installation of a
large branch here, probably including a retail facility
and a distribution center for mail orders, will be un
dertaken. E.C.F.
Keeping Business Downtown
(Albany Democrat-Herald)
Both at Salem and Corvallis sizable apartment
house construction projects have been launched, the
latest being a 6-story 48-unit structure at Corvallis.
These are in addition to extensive apartment accom
modations in the downtown areas of the two towns.
A LB ANY is sorely in need of such housing, and local
downtown business interests overlooked a bet
when they failed to insure permanence of downtown
customers while construction costs were low. As a
result residential units are being scattered all over
the landscape and downtown business establishments
are losing much patronage that they might have
assured for themselves had they awakened to the dan
ger which was obvious when the new highway was
built through town.
AN APARTMENT house such as that projected at
" Corvallis can house from 100 to 130 persons. Two
or three such buildings downtown would be a distinct
asset to the central trading area, for few urban apart
ment occupants would go to the outskirts to do their
trading. Business created by purchases made for 300
or more persons would make a marked ditterence in
business volume in the vicinity of these housing units
when added to that already afforded by downtown
residents, and the apartments would forever serve
as an anchor to the Albany business district which
it must be admitted shows some signs of deteriorat
ing in favor of suburban shopping centers.
As to the demand for apartments, one can hardly
doubt when cyie surveys the miserable living quarters
for which occupants are now paying from $25 to $50
month.
"THE business interests of the town have it within
their power to save themselves. There has been
too much procrastination, it is true, but more business
will be available and it is not too late to capture it
as it comes. All that is necessary is foresight and
action to back it.

In the Day's News
By FRANK JENKINS
From Washington:
"Leon H. Keyserling, chair
man of President Truman's
council of economic advisers,
says the nation is "at the peak
point of post-war real prosperity'
and the outlook for the rest of
the year is good."
IF that is true ( and I certainly
hope it is) we ought to be
paying off our national debt in
stead of increasing the mort
gage on the house to pay our
grocery bills. Any business man
knows that if you keep adding
to your debt when times are
good, instead of paying off on
it, you're in for bad times when
times aren't so good.

Beans Removed as
Columbia River Rises
The Dalles. Ore.. June 23
U.P.l Sixty men were recruited
here last night to move 85 car
loads of beans owned by the
commodity credit corporation
irom nocks on the Columbia i
river following reports that the I
river would rise higher than ore-
dieted, j
Dolph Kinsey. manager of the
port of The Dalles, said the '
beans would be moved any-''
where they could find room at
high levels. He reported the riv-:
er level at the docks was 47.5
feet last night and it would 1
have to reach 50.7 feet before the i
docks were flooded. 1

she said.
DLEASE don't get me wrong
I know we're not going to
cut down on our spending and
start retiring our debt THIS
YEAR. This is an election year,
and everybody running for of
fice thinks the way to get elected
is to SPEND. I'm just so hope
lessly behind the times as to
think that if you keep on spend
ing more than you take in the
time will come when you will
wish you hadn't.
THIS one is from South Carol-inn-
"Federal retirement pay
drawn by Former Secretary of
State James F. Byrnes was in
jected into the South Carolina
governor's race yesterday.
"Lester L. Bates, one of
Byrnes' three opponents for the
governorship in the Democratic
primary, declared' that Byrnes
draws $6,637.08 a year in a fed
eral pension. Bates said the mon
ey, no doubt, is deserved and is
being put to good use. 'But,' he
added, 'the regrettable thing is
that all our people can not be
provided for in the same propor
tion as the politicians provide
for themselves.' "
Lausche that he hasn't made up
his mind yet whether he will
vote for Ohios incumbent Sen
ator Taft in November or for
Taft's Democratic opponent for
the senatorship.
That, by any accepted politi
cal standard, is HERESY, and
since Taft is a national figure
Democrats all over the country
are wondering what the heck
this guy Lausche is up to.
UELL. he MIGHT be as com
pletely sincere as to believe
that Taft is the best man for the
state of Ohio and for the nation.
The political slant on the
cident, however, seems to be that
Lausche has decided that Taft
is going to be overwhelmingly
re-elected and he might as well
make political medicine for him
self by climbing on Taft's band
wagon NOW.
Politics is a great game.

stances tha use of a pen name or
Initial for publication Is permls
slble. The Mall Tribune reserves
tha right to edit all letters with a

THAT'S a crack at the fact
that under the federal re
tirement pay system our politic
ians are pretty well provided
for when they "retire" which
means when they get defeated
for re-election, for no politician
ever retires for any other rea
son.
In fairness, it ought to be add
ed that they put up a fair-sized
chunk of the money themselves
by deductions from their salaries
while they are still in office.
