Officials Keeping
Watchful Eye on
Turkey Disease
Portland (U.R) State agri
cultural officials are fearful that
the pneumonia-like disease, psit
tacosis, which has hit two north
ern Oregon turkey flocks may
be spread along both sides of
the Columbia river by migra
tory waterfowl.
J. F. Short, Oregon director
of agriculture, has taken emer
gency measures aimed at pre
venting the spread of the dis
ease which has infected turkey
flocks at Sauvies island and at
Scappoose and also contributed
to the death of two persons.
Dr. E. M. Dickinson, chief of
the Oregon State College veter
inary school, said Saturday that
his department is "very much
concerned" over the possibility
of further outbreaks. "We are
grateful, however, that the in
fected flocks are isolated from
the great bulk of Oregon's tur
key population," Dr. Dickenson
said. ,
Embargo Ordered
State of Washington officials
have slapped an embargo on
all turkey eggs and poults from
the state of Oregon. Washington
officials have demanded that de
struction of the entire flocks
where the outbreak of the dis
ease was found as the price for
lifting the embargo.
Oregon authorities have balk
ed at the idea of destroying the
entire flocks, saying that it
would amount to taking away
12 months income from the
growers. "They are foundation
birds for breeding stock and not
for market. The 6000 birds in
volved in the Scappoose area
are not just ordinary turkeys,"
Short said.

Lieutenant Governor
Ballot Title Readied
Salem (U.R) A ballot title
and descriptive summary of the
lieutenant governor bill was pre
pared today by Attorney Gen
eral Robert Y. Thornton.
Purpose of the bill would be
to "create the office of lieutenant
governor," accerding to the
title.
"Qualifications shall be the
same as for governor," the title
continues, "with duties assigned
by law or by governor. Lieu
tenant governor shall preside
over the Senate and may suc
ceed to vacancy created in office
of governor."
The initiative measure would
create -the office by amending
article five of the Oregon Con
stitution and would make the
lieutenant governor rather than
the president of the Senate first
in line to succeed the governor
in case of vacancy.
A key arid controversial fea
ture of the bill would be that
the lieutenant governor would
preside over the state Senate
with the right to cast a tie-breaking
vote except upon final pas
sage of bills and joint resolu
tions. Guide Dog Program

Alabama Negroes
Go on Trial for
Boycott of Buses
- Montgomery, Ala.- U.PJ
Ninety - three Montgomery Ne
groes went on trial today on
charges of "violating a state law
by leading a city-wide racial
boycott of the city's segregated
buses.
The Negroes were Cited as
leaders of the highly successful
15 week movement of "passive
resistance" to Jim Crow prac
tices on the city bus lines.
They protested crowded seat
ing "behind the rail" while
seats in the section reserved for
whites remain empty. The lead
ers were indicted under a little
used "labor" law making con
spiracy to boycott a misde
meanor. Reporters on Hand
A battery of five Negro law
yers defended the leaders before
Circuit Judge Eugene Cater in a
century - old courthouse sched
uled to be torn down next
month. Reporters were on hand
from London, Paris and big U.S.
cities.
Young Fred Gray, leading the
defense, and Solicitor William
F. Thetford, held separate strat
egy meetings on the eve of the
trials. The defense could ask for
a separate trial of each Negro.
Jury trial was waived.
The Negroes . were . indicted
Feb. 21 under a 1921 law pro
viding six-month jail terms,
$1,000 fines or both for conspir
ing1 to organize an economic
boycott.
Must Rul on Violation
. Judge Carter first had to rule
on defense charges that the law
violates the constitutional rights
of free speech, worship and as
sembly. Dr., M. L. King, 27-year-old
Negro minister arrested as lead
er of the boycott, told some
1,000 Negroes at a prayer meet
ing Sunday night that their race
has gained a "new sense of dig
nity and destiny" through their
boycott.
