Ed Sullivan Sued After Auto Accident New Haven, Conn. (U.Ri Ed Sullivan, television master of ceremonies and newspaper col umnist, has been named co defendant in a $200,000 damage suit stemming from an auto acci dent last summer in which Sul livan and three others were in jured. The suit was filed Tuesday in Superior court by Ralph Cacace, former watchman on Sullivan's estate in Southbury, Conn. Also named in the suit was Joseph Palmucci, 24, Ansonia, whose car collided wtih one driv en by Sullivan, shortly after midnight Aug. 6 at nearby Sey mour. Cacace and Sullivan's son-in-law, Robert Precht, were riding with the columnist who was driving home following a tclevi-1 sion show in New York. All three, along with Palmucci, were hospitalized for several weeks. TOO MUCH MOON SHINE Choshi, Japan (U.R) A fire tower lookout spotted a red glow in the sky last night and shouted to the station below, "a fire, to the east:" Three engines, sirens screaming, tore out to ward the red glow. They kept after it until they reached the Pacific shore. There was the moon's weak red glow on the horizon. 7m make travel a family affair. w' Leave Monday, Tuesday, Wednes day or Thursday. on the '&?nJej0fitrt-- CITY OF Hi Csll or uvitn UNION PACIFIC C.

Duncan Reports on First Two Weeks Of Legislature; Committees Hard at Work By ROBERT DUNCAN State Representative From Jackson County Salem, Jan. 26 (By Mail) The Oregon State Legislature has been working now for two ymmvwmmm weeks To many people it might seem that the time has been wast ea because of the delay in organizing Senate. The House and its mem bers have ac- h . L ,,. lu""y u c " announced almost immediately. At the present time, some 289 bills have been introduced in the House (compared to only 95 at this time last session). Many of these have already been referred to House committees, and the labor of considering the merits of each bill has commenced. It is necessary that the committee consider the objectives to be ac complished, whether or not a particular bill will do the job either with or without amend ment, and what its overall effect PORTLAND TO CHICAGO 751 Plttock Blork Portland 3, Oregon if n I DRASTIC REDUCTIONS ON COATS, DRESSES, WERE WERE WERE WERE I upon our government and econ omy will be. I have been appointed a mem ber of the Ways and Means Com mittee and chairman of the House Judiciary committee. Al Littrell has been appointed vice chairman of the Commerce and Utilities Committee and a mem ber of Forestry and Mining, and Highway Committes. Many im portant bills have already been referred to these committees by ,ln I the Speaker of the House, Pat the ,;,, , Ways and Means is a commit tee made up of both Senators and Representatives. The House Chairman is Robert Steward, Democrat, of Keating. The Sen ate Chairman is Alfred Corbett. Democrat, of Portland. Ways and Means holds the purse strings of the state, and must pass on each measure introduced which appropriates money. One hundred nine such bills are now before use. Economical opera tion of state government is to be demanded. But additional services are also demanded, and some are so essential that we cannot afford not to spend the money for them. In this category are education and proper care of our mentally ill. There is, unfortunately, no prospect of lower taxes. The shape of the tax and its incidence still re main to be determined. Senate Deadlock There are those who say that the Senate has wasted two weeks; others have commented that many hostilities and pre judices have been aired and, to some extent, dissipated, and that it is far better for the two parties to have met head-on and had it out at once than for these enmi ties to plague the progress of legislation throughout the ses sin. Only time will tell whether or not this latter comment is so. Certainly it would seem that men of good will could quickly settle their differences of opin ion and get down to the business of government. It is an example, perhaps, of over-zealous political partisan ship which fails to recognize that political parties exist only to furnish good government and are not an end in themselves. Personal political ambition also figured heavily in the dead-lock as is usually the case in any I TEEN-AGE COATS GIRLS' 17-14 COATS WERE 19.98 NOW $13, $16 j WERE 12.98 NOW $10 WERE 16.98 NOW $13 TEEN T0PPERS WERE 19.98.-22.98 NOW $16 WERE 14;98 N0W 13 MISSES' SUITS 16.98 NOW MISSES' RAINCOATS 14.98, 16.98 NOW GIRLS' CHILDREN'S SHOES Loafers, 2 Strap, Others 2.98 ......

Both Republic-1 ans and Democrats must accept their share of whatever blame is to be assessed; and to both must be ascribed respect for having the courage of their convictions. Most people seem happy with the ultimate choice of Boyd Overhulse for Senate President. All in all, the "show" was a graphic display of democracy in action, with all of its defects and advantages magnified by the spy glass of public opinion. Two Measures Only two matters have come up so far for final action by the House. One was House Memorial 1, directed to the Unit ed States Congress and concern ing the termination of the Klam ath Indian Reservation. This memorial asked that "stop-gap legislation" be enacted by Con gress to defer the termination and provide for a period of re habilitation for the tribe and gradual liquidation of its assets. The memorial was passed with no opposition. I might explain that memorials have no legal effect. They are merely requests of statements of opinion. There was also a resolution up for "third reading"; i.e., final action. This particular resolution provided for an amendment to the rules of the House to permit the House to elect a pro tem speaker in the absence of the Speaker. This, also, was easily passed. Bills In Libraries Many matters will be taken up in the weeks to come. Copies of all bills and the calendars have been sent by the Jackson County Delegation to the libraries in Ashland and Medford, where they may be consulted by anyone who is interested. The advice and comments of all are invited, as it is only by hearing from those most affected that we here in Salem can propery represent you. Do not hesitate to write or stop in with your questions or comments, whether you think them important or not. They may have a strong effect on the ultimate shape of legislation. It has been estimated that it costs about $600 for each bill passed by the Legislature. Bills should not be introduced unless there is a real need; but once that need is established, it is $13 $13 2.47 3.97 WOMEN'S, MISSES' SHOES Casuals, Loafers, Flats WERE 4.98 NOW 2.97 WERE 5.98 ....NOW 3.97 WERE 6.98 NOW 4.97 Broken Sizes OPEN TONIGHT UNTIL 9 GIRLS' SKIRTS-Wools, corduroys, felts, velve teens.

Attorney Ed Branchfield is rendering valuable assistance as an attorney volunteering his ser vices in drafting legislation. Mrs. Harlan Bosworth and Dr. and Mrs. Scott Heatherington have visited us. George and Jean Brown, Ed and Mary Kelly, Mr. and Mrs. Larry Sheehan, Mr. and Mrs. Hugh Friel, Donna Straus. Bob and Marge Boyer, and Mr. and Mrs. Alan Holmes attended the Governor's Ball and the inauguration. The latter was a most impressive cere mony. I was gratified to be ap pointed to the committee to es cort the Supreme Court Justices to the rostrum, particularly so since one of the respected mem bers of the Court is my former law partner, Justice William McAllister. My family is well established here in Salem. Nancy and Angus are attending their respective schools, and Marijane is serving efficiently as my secretary. She says "yes sir" and "no sir," at the Statehouse; after 5 o'clock, however, she reassumes the tra ditional position of authority which most wives occupy. She and I will continue to keep you advised of our experiences here in Salem. British Minister To Fly To Ottowa Washington (U.R) British Defense Minister Duncan Sandys planned today to interrupt mili tary talks for a flying visit to Ottawa. He was scheduled to return here Friday to continue discus sions with government officials. Sandys said Tuesday after an hour-long meeting with Secre tary of State John Foster Dulles that the United States and Brit ain are in full accord on mili tary strategy. He did not go into detail but his statement apparently means the United States and Britain have agreed that the two coun tries should place increased em phasis on air-nuclear weapons as a means of reducing heavy man-power costs. Britain has long favored such a shift in em phasis. SHOES Wednesday, January 30. 1957 Elizabeth Taylor's Divorce Said Near Mexico City (U.R) Authori tative sources here predicted to day screen star Elizabeth Taylor and her British actor husband, Michael Wilding, would be grant ed a mutual consent divorce in the immediate future by a Mexi can court. The same sources said Miss Taylor's marriage to Mike Todd, Broadway and Hollywood pro ducer, would follow within a few j days after the decree. ! No delay in the divorce pro- j ceedings was anticipated. Both j Miss Taylor and Wilding de-1 clared their mutual desire for a j divorce either personally or i through lawyers before the court ! at the resort town of Cuerna- i vaca. Lending support to the re- j ports was the arrival in Aca-, pulco of singer Eddie Fisher and j his actress fwife, Debbie Rey nolds. They said they were just vacationing but indications were they had come for the Taylor Todd nuptials. UAL Mainliner Has Trouble at Pendleton j Pendleton U.P.)
