    Work ai Two Mills
Almost Double in
Recent Months
Gold Hill Operations at
Stagecoach Lumber company'!
Gall's creek saw and planing
mills have almost doubled sines
the comtany leased the mills
from Fred and Otto Jeddeloh j
recently.
O. J. Crenshaw, general man
ager of Gold Hill operations for
the Grants Pass company, said
the company plans to load be
tween four and five railroad box
cars a day, starting later this
week when new loading plat
forms on the Southern Pacific
tracks are put into use. Only
two box cars are loaded daily
now.
Work on the platforms is un
derway. The platforms are to fa
cilitate loading with a lumber
loader.
Crenshaw said the company is
operating both saw mills in
Gall's creek, and night shift
has started on the gang saw
mill. A night shift also has been
put on the planing mill, Cren
shaw said. Formerly only one
saw mill and the planing mill
were being operated.
The operation, Crenshaw said,
is primarily the same as the one
run by the Jeddeloh brothers
except on an increased basis.
The company manufactures
West Coast Lumber products.
Building Under Way
Meanwhile, construction of an
Industrial type building is un
derway at the Jeddeloh Broth
ers Sweed Mills company,
where gang saws for lumber in
dustry will be manufactured.
Production is expected to start
in about 40 days.
The building framework on a
concrete slab is complete, and
roofing and siding probably will
be started later this week.
The business is expected to
expand to a quarter million dol
lar industry with employment
commensurate to its growth.

Vancouver, Wash. '(U.R) Pin
ball amusement devices received
the blessing of the Vancouver
city council last night in a sur
prise 6 to 1 vote in favor of li
censing the machines for parks
and recreation revenue.
Pinballs are legal in Washing
ton if they are used for amuse
ment only. The Vancouver coun
cil rejected a proposal to raise
$40,000 for parks and recreation
through an expanded business
and occupation tax. It was un
certain how much money the
pinball licenses would raise.
Two more hearings must be
held on the pinball ordinance
before it becomes effective.

Neuberger Denounces
Hoover Commission
Washington U.R) Sen. Rich
ard Neuberger (D.-Ore.) yester
day denounced Hoover commis
sion recommendations for aboli
tion of the postal savings system
and increases in parcel post
rates.
Neuberger said "many men
and women in Oregon are totally
reliant upon parcel post for de
livery of the necessities of life."
The Portland Democrat said
postal savings "is the only bank
ing system available to families
in small remote rural villages
far from commercial banks."
Washington U.R) Chief Jus
tice Earl Warren indicated to
day that the Supreme Court
will issue an order before it re
cesses for the summer, on how
states should carry out its ruling
abolishing school segregation.
"As has been the practice for
many years, action in all argued
cases is expected to be an
nounced prior to adjournment,"
Warren said in a speech pre
pared for delivery before the
32nd annual meeting of the
American Law Institute.
The court heard arguments
last month on how its historic,
year-old decision should be car
ried out. The justices will decide
how and when the states should
QUAKE REPORTED

ate earthquake shook two pro
vinces in southern Luzon Mon
day, causing slight damage to

Acreage Increased
Washington U.R)- The Agri
culture department today an
nounced state wheat acreage al
lotments for the 1956 crop, based
on a national total of 55,000,000
acres.
Four of the nine leading wheat
producing states received al
lotments above those on which
the 1955 crop was planted. The
other five received slightly
smaller allotments than those
granted for the 1955 crop.
Kansas, the largest producer,
was allotted 10,587,206 acres for
the 1956 crop against 10,496,070
acres for the 1955 crop.

MAYOR RESIGNS
Vancouver, Wash. (U.R)
Mayor Robert S. McCall resign
ed his post here last night, citing
press of private business. Mc
Call said he would retain his
position on the city council un
til the expiration of his term.
The council will choose a suc
cessor at its regular public meet
ing May 24.
finally lower the racial bars In
public schools.
Possible Precedent Breaking
There had been a possibility
the court might break with pre
cedent and delay itsTuling until
next fall because of the import
ance of the decree and the vast
sociological and legal problems
involved.
But Mr. Warren's' statement
apparently means the court in
tends to hand down its order
within a few weeks. The high
tribunat is now scheduled to re
cess May 31, but the date may
be postponed for several weeks
if the justices find they cannot
meet the deadline.
Most of the Chief Justice's ad
dress was devoted to the prob
lems of the nation's federal
courts. He said that they arc un
derstaffed, overloaded with
cases and hampered -by "inade
quate facilities, outmoded prac
tices." The backlog of business is "be
coming a nationwide problem,"
Mr. Warren said, "particularly
in the metropolitan areas" such
as the Southern District of New
York where 10,735 civil cases
are awaiting action.
'Grossly Underpaid'
He also warned that the num
ber of federal probation officers
is "far too low" and that they
are "grossly underpaid." He said
the probation system is one of
the best ways of combatting the
spread of juvenile delinquency
and expressed hope that Con
gress would boost appropriations
for the service.
The Chief Justice said "one of
the conspicuous defects' 'in fed
eral court procedure is the lack
of any provision for paying law
yers appointed by the court to
defend penniless persons ac
cused of crime. He proposed that
federal courts be empowered by
Congress to either pay such at
torneys or to appoint a full-time,
salaried public defender with
assistants and office personnel.
