Newspaper Page Text0 SIX MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE Wednesday, April 13, 1955 CIO Auto Workers Open Talks With American Motors Detroit (U.R) CIO United Auto Workers negotiators today extended their battle for a guar anteed annual wage to a third front as they opened talks with American Motors Corp. American Motors was the first of the so-called "independents" of the auto industry to enter negotiations with the UAW on the controversial GAW issue which could wreck five years of labor peace in the industry. Ford Motor Company opened similar talks with the union yes terday and GM began talks with the UAW last week. American Motors employs about 13,000 workers in Nash plants in Wisconsin and Hudson and Kelvinator plants in Michi gan. UAW contracts with the plants expire at various inter vals between June 1 and Oct. 1. Delayed Action Final action in the American Motors negotiations was expect ed to be held off until some sort of pattern was set in the GM and Ford negotiations. Chrysler Corp. and two small er auto firms also are expected to follow a pattern established by the Ford and GM negotia tions. Chrysler, the last of the industry's "big three," and the other two independents will be gin talks with the union at a later date. Union officials said no pattern has been set at present in talks with the auto industry's two biggest producers. They gave no indication of when the pattern could be expected to jell.

To this truth we owe, All the love between us two! Let's not you and I inquire What has been our past desire; On what men you have smiled Ot what women I have beguiled. Edmund Waller. (Above was written over 300 yean before the currently popu lar song titled "How Important Can It Be?") Only one man in ten knows how to give himself a good shave. Here's how: 1 Wash the face. 2 Rub olive oil on the beard. 3 Use cold water to lather. 4 Dip razor frequently in boiling water while using it. 5 Stretch the skin as far as possible by making faces. 6 Use short rapid strokes. Asking Queries from clients. Q. Who introduced the song titled "She Was Happy Till She Met You?" A. It was Imogene Comer, who also popularized those touching ballads titled "She was More to Be Pitied Than Censured," and "Take Back Your Engagement Ring." Q. Why are girls named Margaret called "Peggy"? A. Your query has me baffled. I'll ask Peggy King the next time I see her. Q. Isn't James Cagney, the actor, of Irish descent? A. Mr. Cagney's father was Irish, his mother was Swedish. Get It Right Most people pronounce the name of the Crescent City as "New Orleens." That's wrong. Pronounce it "New Orl-yuns." One of the most frequently mis spelled words in the English language is sacrilegious. Even proofreaders miss on that word and pass it when spelled "sac reeligious." Up The Ladder Blanca Holmes, distinguished astrologer, once said, "In over twenty-five years of research I have found that seven out of ten Quemoy Attack By Reds Expected Quemoy Island (U.R) A spokesman for the Quemoy com mander said today there were indications of an impending Communist attack against this Nationalist-held island. Col. Tien Shu-Sin said the Communists had massed 200,000 troops which could be hurled against Quemoy and that the Reds had built up gun emplace ments and assembled 2000 junks. Lt. Gen. Liu Yu-chan, the Quemoy commander, was in specting the defenses of nearby little Quemoy today when cor respondents flew here from Tai pei. There was intermittent shell fire, both outgoing and incoming, during the day, but no shells landed near correspondents taken on a tour of the island. Tien said the Communists had not made any recent landing at tempts but that the Nationalists had steadily increased their de fenses and had brought in tanks to aid in the island's defense. He spoke through an interpreter. women born under Gemini (May 21-June 20) marry more than once and usually up the ladder. That is, they do better each time. Asides "Silver Dollar" Smith, pic turesque owner of the New York saloon that had silver dollars im bedded in the floor, was 6 feet 6 and weighed 300. . . .A hosiery manufacturer of long experience says the perfect feminine leg measurements are as follows: ankle, eight inches; calf, twelve or twelve and a quarter; and thigh, eighteen and a half. Sidelights Thoroughbreds having post position five win the most races. Since 1900 horses having that post position have won the Ken tucky Derby nine times . . . Two thirds of the people in the United States are over 21. Perhaps you knew that. But do the producers of television programs know it? Horses and Women The photograph on the cover of a periodical is of a young woman described as being at tired in "Dior's New A-line That's the most ridiculous fash ion since the hobble skirt. Makes a woman look like a clown. It has the same effect on a female's appearance as wearing a round flat hat on the head. Why do men feature styles that make them look foolish and moronic? I may give up trying to understand women and devote all my time to trying to understand horses. Salk's Parents Humble, Proud New York (U.R) Dora and Daniel Salk, with humility and quiet pride, saw over a closed television circuit Tuesday night their scientist son take an hon ored place in medical history. The 65-year-old parents of Dr. Jonas E. Salk were part of an audience of 54,000 persons mostly doctors who watched the story of the development of the Salk vaccine to conquer polio. They went to the Waldorf-Astoria Hotel to view the historic report relayed from the Univer sity of Michigan. The program lasted one hour and climaxed a day of happy excitement for the Salks which began at 7 a.m., when they got up to wait for the announcement. Earlier in the day at their five-room, West Side apartment, Mrs. Salk cried a little when re porters and DhotoeraDhers vis ited them. She was visibly moved over the world admiration her son had won. "Whatever he touched, he made a success," the blue-eyed, white-haired mother of the now famous scientist said. Salk's father, a white-haired. 6-foot retired blouse manufac turer, said, "I feel great. I feel great for every parent." The Cliff House in San Fran cisco, overlooking Seal Rocks, is a modern restaurant noted for its sea-view dining room.

Henry Helser Still on Stand San Francisco (U.R) J Henry Helser, head of the Port land, Ore., investment firm bear ing his name, took the stand for the fifth day today to defend his firm against charges of fraud The Securities and Exchange Commission is seeking an in junction against the J. Henry Helser Co., to restrain it from practices which the SEC charges are violations of fraud provisions of the securities laws. Yesterday Helser denied that his firm bought securities in blocks while claiming to give ac counts individual attention. He testified that his company bought and sold in odd lot sizes, but "got round lot prices on odd lot sales" due to over-all vol urae. Helser testified that his com pany solicited the advice and criticism of the SEC in 1950 when the firm first published its brochures explaining company methods. The SEC, however, charges that the brochures were mis leading and did not truly reflect the nature of the firm's service to clients. Oregonian Cleared In Oklahoma Murder Stillwater. Okla. (U.R) Sher man Johnson, 67, of Portland, Ore., brought here on murder charges, was cleared by a lie detector test and said today he was happy it is over and "I can go back to Oregon." Johnson underwent the lie de tector test yesterday at his own request. Prosecutor Bob Murphy said it provided the "final piece of evidence we needed to clear the suspect." Murphy said the test results, together with other evidence, proved conclusively Johnson was not the slayer. Johnson was arrested in Port land after a woman thought she recognized him as Charlie Goss, suspected of shooting her sister and another person in a Cushing, Okla., dance hall m 1928. John son, brought to Stillwater last month, denied all along he was Goss. MYRTLE CREEK PLYWOOD CO.
