This resolution among -the pantie-and-G-string set was pass ed Monday at the first official meeting of the League of Exotic Dancers. The historic moment occurred in a hot room above a downtown Los Angeles saloon. Girls Band Together The girls, headed by President Jennie (The Bazoom Girl) Lee (42-30-36). banded together with their clothes on to do something "about the low wage scale of $85 a week" they get when they take them off. "In New York they get $125," declared President Lee, fluffing her long blonde hair. "But here some clubs put a costume on a cocktail waitress and say go! Waitresses ' don't know how to dance. They aren't strip-teasers, they're exhibition ists. We think stripping is an art and we must protect it." After posing in dresses, and, Hillsboro To Vote On Annexation Plan Hillsboro, Ore.

Tuesday, July 19. 195S MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE THREE Oregon GOP Sees Ice Harbor Dam Approval as Chance To Beat Morse with little persuasion in bikinis for happy news photographers. the nine girls and one French poodle named Tina settled down to business. "The meeting will come to order," announced Jennie, who was wearing a brown cotton halter dess, a yellow pencil and a black notebook. 100 Strippers Wanted "We have a telegram from Caprice and Misty: 'Sorry can't be at the meeting. We're rehear sing without pay. Good luck." "Now I think we- should get the 100 strippers in this area to sign a petition for higher pay and send it to our Union, AGVA, Jennie continued "briskly. "They don't pay enough attention to our problems. "Many of us get above scale, but those' who don't need higher pay. We'll ask for a $10 a week raise, but settle for $5," she con cluded brightly. By A. ROBERT SMITH Mail Tribune Correspondent Washington (Special) Oregon Republicans are happiest over approval of funds to start con struction of Ice Harbor dam be cause they think it will aid them next year in ther drive to defeat Sen. Wayne Morse wnen ne comes up for reelection. Morse and the other three Democratic senators from the Pa cific Northwest were responsible for obtaining the $1,000,000 ap propriation by which tnat lower Snake River project will be launched this fiscal year. As the Oregon GOP sees it, however, they can turn this reg ional accomplishment against Morse in his home state because they can argue to his constitu ents that this dam in Washing ton state will be damaging to an important Oregon resource, Co lumbia River salmon. Howl of Protest As soon as approval of the funds for Ice Harbor was an nounced last week, fishing in terests set off a howl of protest to the public and to Morse and Sen. Richard L. Neuberger and dispatched a representative to Washington, D.C., to stir up op position. ' Neuberger, who intends to campaign for Morse next year ' and who is sensitive to any con servation group protests, shot back that "so-called fishing groups" in this case were out "to shape political destinies far more than want to save salmon?" The Oregon state director of the Izaak Walton League, Dan P. Allen of Portland, was among those to rap the senators for pushing the Ice Harbor project. Although a frequent defender of Izaak Walton League proposals and positions, Neuberger de clared: "By what mysterious alchemy does the state president of the Oregon Izaak Walton League de cide - that Neuberger deserves censure for support of Ice Harbor but that "Interior Secretary Douglas) McKay and (Gov. Paul) Patterson shall go unscathed for support of far higher dams on the Salmon and Clearwater riv ers? It is perhaps an alchemy which' has much to do with the fact that the Ice Harbor dam is to be a federal dam whereas a great, private-power combine has plans to acquire the power sites on the Clearwater?" Silent About John Day Neuberger pointed out that "many of the fisheries groups assailing Ice Harbor dam are silent about John Day dam on the Columbia , "which will be of about equal height. "Both Ice Harbor and John Day will stand between the sal mon coming in from the ocean and the mountain spawning grounds in Idaho," the senator contended. "How do these fish eries . groups decide that they must object to Ice Harbor and yet acquiesce to John Day? Is it because Ice Harbor is to be a federal dam, whereas Pacific Power and Light and other pri vate utilities have a scheme for securing ownership and control of all the energy generated at John Day?" ' Morse Says Little '. Morse for his part has said little about the Ice Harbor vs. rfisheries groups controversy, but he did indicate what may be come one of his weapons in run ning for reelection. Senate last week: I am engaged in investigat- - o mg some of the contraciurai activities of the Department of the Interior under , the present secretary of the Interior, and I have gone far enough in my in quiry to satisfy me that so many of the secretary's policies have been against the public interest that I do not propose to have him granted any additional power, at least until after the investiga tion is completed." Morse made the statement by way of explanation for blocking a minor bill that would have given McKay authority to make 50-year leases of land owned by the Alaska Railroad. It would also give McKay power to lease He told the the entire railroad to private operators if he wished. Umpqua Timber Sales . 307,407,000 Board Feet Roseburg (U.R) Umpqua forest supervisor Vondis Miller has reported that a total of 307, 407,000 board feet of Umpqua timber was sold during the fiscal year 1954-55." ' The timber brought $6,654, 000, he said. ' If gVfi A need money.. a low-cost First National is as easy as this... Go to your nearby First National Branch, and ask to see a loan officer.
