March S. 1937 Pressure Exerted for leek To Return Home To Face Investigators W'svhirf'on (U P; Th j Eisenhower flmin:trt'.ion f ut pressure m Timstr Union Chief Dav Becfc todey to hurry hcJe and t inv5t;fated. The move f,Tie Beck as subjected to bitter attack by AFL-CIO Vice President James B. Carey, who called him "a traO)r to the labor movement." Carey, at a press conference in Chicago Monday night, said if Beck's Teamsters "don't mend their ways they're in danger of expulsion" from the parent AFL CIO. Hearings Resumed Today "One corrupt international or even on corrupt local is one too many," Carey declared. The Teamsters union has been linked with gambling, vice and political influence in Oregon in testimony0 before the Senate Rackets Investigating commit tee. Hearings resume this aft ernoon. The administration's nudge to Beck came from Labor Secre te James P. Mitchell. He an nounced Monday night that Beck, now in Europe, will not be named to the U.S. delegation to an international labor confer ence in Germany. Mitchell noted pointedly that Beck, wanted by the Senate in vestigating committee for ques tioning, gave his prospective at tendance at the conference next week as onj reason for not rush ing home to testify. Mitchell's Action Praised Therefore, said the secretary, "I have decided not to nominate Mr. Beck as a member of the U. S. delegation" to the conference. Sen. Karl E. Mundt, (R-SD). a j committee member, praised ! Mitchell for a "cooperative atti- j tude." Mundt said he thinks the j move will "bring to a head," the question of whether Beck will show up soon for quizzing. The rackets committee has been trying for some time to get Beck to testify concerning his personal finances and charg es of vice and racket deals in volving his biggest-in-the-nation union. AFL-CIO President George Meany, who nominated Beck to attend the labor conference in Germany before the current Sen ate inquiry was launched, said he was "not surprised'' at Mitch ell's action. Meany told reporters he will try to find a substitute for Beck, but may not be able to obtain the necessary security clearance before the conference in Ham burg, Germany, next week. Half-Size Fashion nPA ivy liPi o mvx Wild Turkeys Said Making Comeback Albany. N.Y. (U.R) Wild turkeys are making a comeback in New York, but the state's conservation department says "don't reach for your gun yet." "Chances are good for a wild turkey season next year. But first the state legislature must act to permit such hunting. If It does, the shooting may be limited to one county in the southern tier. Wild gobblers made their ap pearance in the southern tier about 10 yetrs ago. To help mi gration, the department decided on a transplanting job. New York now trades Mallard duck eggs for semi-wild turkeys from Pennsylvania. The state has been rearing and releasing sev eral hundred turkeys for the past five years.

Farmers' Spendable Income Increases Over 1955 Figure Washington (U.P The Ag riculture Department said today farmers' spendable income in 1956 rose to an estimated $11, 836.000.000 S500 million more than in 1955. But because of a slightly rising farm population the spendable income of each man, woman, and child from farm sources aver aged $599 which was $7 less than in 1955. Spendable income, technically realized net income, is the amount available for spending after the farmer had paid all his production expenses. It does not include any adjustment for the value of changes in crop and livestock inventories. Soil bank and wool incentive program payments accounted for about S300 million of the in crease in realized net income. The remaining S200 million re flected increased cash receipts from farm marketings which were only partly offset by higher production expenses. Dollar Worth Less There was a net liquidation of about $250 million of inven tories in livestock and crops, es pecially cattle. In 1955, there was a net accumulation of $340 million in inventories. Net in come of farm operators after ad justment for inventory change was $11.6 billion in 1956 com pared with $11.7 billion in 1955. The 1956 realized net income of $11.8 billions in terms of buy ing power was only 3 per cent above 1955 because last year's dollar was worth only about 99 cents in terms of the 1955 dollar. This decline in the value of farm dollars reflected the fact that prices of non-agricultural goods and services increased more than farm prices last year. In its final report on 1956 farm income, the department said the total income of the farm population amounted to $19.8 billion, 1 per cent above 1955. This included $11.6 billion after adjustment for inventory change, $1.7 billion in farm wages, and S6.5 billion of income from non farm sources. McCarthy and Neuberger Clash Over Attendance at Senate Doctrine Hearings Washington (U.R) The Sen ate was quiet and uncrowded A half dozen Senators sat at their desks or wandered about the floor. Sen. George W. Malone (R Nev.). rose and began criticizing the Eisenhower Doctrine to the almost empty chamber. Suddenly Sen. Joseph McCar thy (R-Wis.), jumped up angrily. McCarthy charged that senate attendance during the debate on the Eisenhower Doctrine has been a "disgrace ... a reflec tion on thu United States." He said thw Senate should have quorum call after quorum call to keep Senators in their seats. Neuberger was There He said he was "very disap pointed" that only one Demo crat. Sen. Richard L. Neuberg er (Ore.), was present. Senate Democratic Leader Lyndon Johnson arrived shortly afterward and the fight was on Neuberger said he had "not noticed that McCarthy has been gracing the chamber with his presence very much during the debate. In fact, Johnson said his pres- About 40.000 persons in the world die of snakebites each year.

McCarthy snapped that John son was trying to be clever. He said he had been busy with committee hearings. Neuberger said McCarthy wasn't around the Senate Sat urday when the first important vote was taken on an amend ment to the doctrine. I "Paired" With Bridges . McCarthy said he was "pair ed" on the vote with Sen. Styles Bridges (R-NH). Besides, he said, he was sitfing with the Special Labor Rackets committee. Neuberger asked if it met on Saturday which it didn't. "I believe it did, I believe it did," McCarthy said. "I may be wrong on that." McCarthy at one point said he was the "ranking Republican member" of four appropriations subcommittees. He did not ex plain, but the committee's rec ords show him a member of four subcommittees and ranking GOP member on only one of them. Arizona Farmers Return Highest Average Income Washington ;U.P.) The ave-i rage spendable income for each 1 farm in the United States in ! 1955 was S2.415, which was $147 j more than in 1955. Arizona farms returned the highest average income of $11,-' 892. California farms were sec ond with S8.411. Spendable income, technically realized net income, is the amount available for spending after the farmers have paid all production expenses. Realized net income per farm increased in all but 14 states in 1956, reflecting for the most part increases in the volume of farm marketings and payments made to farmers under the soil bank Harvard, founded in 1636. was the first university in the United States. medford Solar Furnace May Go To 5,000 Degrees Natick, Mass. .U.R) Five thousand degrees Fahrenheit! That's the potential of a solar furnace now being installed at the Quartermaster Research and Development Command here. Next summer scientists will start using the furnace to test materials designed for protec tion against the killing heat gen erated by explosions of nuclear weapons. The furnace uses a complex system of huge mirrors and len ses to concentrate the rays of the sun at a single point, the temperature at that point is hot enough to turn almost any known substance into a boiling liquid. and wool incentive programs. Increases in realized net in come per farm ranged from 46 per cent in New Mexico to 1 per ment in Iowa and North Carolina. Holmes Says Major Points Introduced Portland UP.1 Gov. Robert Holmes told the Portland Cham ber of Commerce yesterday that legislation has been introduced at Salem to carry out the major points of his proposed program. Among his proposals given in his first message to the Legisla ture were those to create an of fice of lieutenant governor; to abolish the State Board of Con trol, and to establish a full-time paid liquor commissioner and a full-time parole board. He told the businessmen it is not good business for Oregon to have more state boards and com missions than any other state in the nation. He predicted that ap pointments to his administrative team would continue and he added that "Oregon has gained tremendously in the people we have been able to attract." take the .yV.--Jr to spring Announces the worth waiting for, One Week Only, "Once-a-year" A :1 cner Come in . . .
