Police Seek Trio
Who Beat Woman
Ashland Ashland police are
seeking two men and a woman
who have been described as the
assailants of an Ashland woman
found beaten and lying on the
sidewalk in front of the Lithia
hotel Sunday evening.
Mrs. John Drager, 272 Orange
st., victim of the assault, was
treated for facial injuries at Ash
land General hospital. She said
she had been drinking at an Ash
land tavern with the trio, who
offered to take her home when
she prepared to leave.
Instead of taking her home,
she said they headed north on
Highway 99. When she insisted
on returning to Ashland, the
driver turned the car around,
but one of the occupants struck
her in the face and continued to
beat her until she was dumped
onto the sidewalk.

county grand jury decides today
whether to return any indict
ments as a result of its probe
of the "wrong door" raid against

spiracy and alleged intrusion
into the privacy of citizens.

SIU To Seek High
Retirement Plan
San Francisco (U.R) Offi
cials of the Seafarers Interna
tional Union say they are work
ing on plans to secure for unli
censed West Coast seamen one
of the highest retirement in
comes in the history of organized
labor.
Union spokesmen said Mon
day at the opening of the SIU's
eighth annual convention that
they hope to arrange for some
retired seamen to receive as
much as $312.80.
The only union personnel who
receive higher pensions are air
line pilots.
The spokesmen said plans are
underway to merge employers
pension contributions to the
Sailors Union of the Pacific, Ma
rine Firemen's Union and the
Marine Cooks and Stewards
Union.
With that completed the union
will ask shipowners . to hike
their pensions from $100 a
month to $125 within the- first
six months and to $150 after a
year.
They said the shipowner's
funds would be added to the
S162.80 maximum monthly pay
ment to retired couples under
social security.
Merger of the pensions funds
is a step toward amalgamation
of the three unions, said the
spokesman, but added no such
step is immediately planned.

Coat Skill Not
Confined fo Tailors
Buffalo, N.Y. (U.R) Skill In
the coat business is not confined
to tailors, according to Albert
Manton and Edward W. Hepp,
who have been outfitting med
ical tablets by the millions for
over 30 years for a pharma
ceutical manufacturer (Arner).
They pointed out that the tab
let tailor's job is a tough one,
for too much or too little color
can ruin a batch containing
25,000 to 1.000.000 units, worth
more than $50,000.
Too much color is about the
same as no color at all as it will !
wash off previous applications.
And too little will result in
color variations that neither
distributors nor consumers
would accept.
They give each of their tiny
subjects as many as 18 or 20
coats, with some special tablets
requiring up to 75 coals where
a particular action medication
is desired.
Color is applied by pouring
or spraying to rolling tablets
to insure even color distribution.
