Armed Services
Merger Necessary,
Sen. Jackson Says
Washington U.R) Sen.
Henry M. Jackson, (D-Wash.),
said today that rapid changing
technologies of war make it "im
perative" to merge the Army,
Navy and Navy and Air Force
into one service.
If one service were created.
Jackson said in an interview, it
would do much to eliminate pres
sent "interservice rivalry" be
tween the services over their
roles and missions.
Congress Not Ready
Sen. Leverett Saltonstall (It
Mass.), senior Republican on the
Senate Armed Services commit
tee said, however, that he does
not believe Congress is ready
for complete unification of the
armed forces.
Saltonstall referred to the un
derlying fear in Congress that
establishment of one service
would lead to creation of a
"Prussian- type general staff
that could wield excessive pow
er. Said Imperative
While this congressional fear
may persist, Jackson said, ulti
mately Congress and the De
fense Department is going to be
driven to unification. "The new
technologies of war make it im
perative that we reach this ob
jective as soon as possible, he
said. '
Jackson noted that new wea
pons developments are chang
ing and expanding the roles and
missions of the individual ser
vices, with resulting interservice
controversy. As examples, he
cited the Army-Air Force feud
over air defense missiles and
the brewing fight between the
two services over control of the
long-range ballistic missiles.

In Big Upswing
Salem (U.B About 10.000
persons went back to work dur
ing May in the biggest upswing
at this season since 1950, the
State unemployment Compensa
tion Commission reported today.
The commission said only 18,
300 workers were looking for
jobs as June opened, compared
with 28,200 a month .ago and
27.700 last year.
The Portland metropolitan
area reported only 7,800 were
unable to find jobs, not much
more than half the number
listed in 1955 and a drop of near
ly 3.000 in the past month. .
Still lower estimates were
expected in the four counties
around Portland as berry pick
ing and other outdoor activities
got into full swing.
Every commission office in
Oregon with the exception of
Ontario, Coos Bay and Tilla
mook showed fewer unemployed
than on June 1. 1955, but in sev
eral eastern Oregon communi
ties the margin was small.
Payments to insured workers
during May dropped to $1,102,-
643, nearly $1,000,000 under the
April total and about 18 per cent
less than last year's comparable
amount. '' '

dles in holders will be placed
on each table.
Surrounding the copper fin
ished charcoal broiler at one
end of the room is a glass-covered
refrigerated meat and salad
case, from which patrons will
select their own cuts of meat.
At the opposite end of the room,
behind a sliding dark designed
curtain, is an open serving win
dow adjoining the cocktail bar.
A solid panel, to be placed over
the serving window, will feature
colors of every type of drink,
Arnsberg said.
Variety of Colors
The Candle Room, having two
entrances from the hotel cock
tail lounge and one outside en
trance, is finished in a variety
of colors. These include yellow
striated plywood in squares on
one wall, black and white wall
paper on another wall, orange
brown tile walls behind the char
coal broiler, gray ceiling and
walnut woodwork and table
tops.
Louvres in the ceiling divider
are pink and the uncovered por
tion of the floor is finished in
black and white confetti pattern
rubber tile. Table cloths are
gray and napkins are a deep
orange color.
Another major feature of the
room, is soft, indirect lighting.
Arnsberg explained that all
lights in the Doom are on indi

light proportions to near-darkness.
Recorded music will also
be brought to the room by indi
rect means.
Dan Marmo, who was recent

the hotel, said today that addi

makes the food department the
hotel's largest source of income.

Grant County Verdict
Salem (U.R) A $30,000
judgment recovered by George
D. Snyder in Grant county Cir
cuit court was reversed by the
Supreme Court today and the
case remanded for a new trial.
Snyder, who died during the
appeal, was severely injured in
December, 1952, when he was
struck by the top of a falling
tree while scaling logs.
He sued Seneca Lumber com
pany under the employers' lia
bility act and was awarded
judgment. The high court held
the trial judge was in error in
instructing the jury regarding al
leged violations of the safety
code, particularly with respect
to its resquirement that a flag
men be stationed to direct traf
fic on a road when there was
danger of falling trees.
The court noted that the de
fendant was not on the road at
the time of the accident.
In another ruling, the court
held that when faced with two
conflicting Oregon statutes, the
law which is specific must pre
vail over the statute which is
general.
The ruling was made in a case
where Raymond D. Colby of
Wasco county appealed from a
ruling of Circuit Judge M. W.
Wilerson that he could not re
cover his costs and attorneys
