Bonus for Korean Vels Is Special Order in House Salem ;U.R House joint res olution 7 calling for a vote of the people on an $11 million bonus for veterans who served during the Korean conflict was a special order of business before the Oregon House today. An extended debate on the resolution was postponed yes terday afternoon when several members who wished to speak and vote on the proposal could not be present. Rep. Norman Howard, Port land Democrat, said the average payment to Oregon's estimated 40.000 Korean vets would be S250 to be raised by a levy of three-quarters of one per cent of the state's assessed valuation. Opposition to the bonus was led by Rep. Keith D. Skelton, Eugene Democrat, who said that while bonuses had become tradi tional in America, there was no reason for them with current service pay standards, educa tional benefits, loans and other preferential veterans legislation. Skelton said he favored re habilitating the veteran and helping him attain the place he would have had in civilian life had it not been for service, but he was opposed to a "veterans' spoils system" in Oregon. Rep. Glen Stadler, Eugene Democrat, joined Skelton in op posing the measure. He said in terest on the 511 million in bonds to finance the bonus would run to $3 million. "Why not divert all this money to education and perhaps we can learn enough to ban wars forever," Stadler said. Rep. William Grenfell Jr., Portland Democrat, said Korean vetrans deserved a bonus be cause of the importance of the Korean conflict in containing Communism in th . Far East. Grenfell said the people of Oregon deserved a chance to vote on whether they wanted to pay the bonus. HOCKEY Br UNITED PRESS The Montreal Canadiens hope to gain a "lock" on their semi final series with the New York ' Rangers when they collide again tonight in a- National Hockey league playoff game at Madison Square Garden.

So another triumph tonight will enable them to take a 2-0 lead back to Montreal, where all the remaining games of this best-of-seven series will be played. The Red Wings entered the playoffs as slight favorites to eliminate Boston, but the Bruins got off to a good start with a 3-1 triumph in their opener at De troit Tuesday.

WAIMJCOTT'S PHARMACY 322 t J Phone 2-6440 Paris .U.R) "We may have the finest television picture in the world, but it's not very far from being the worst," a French man said the other day with a shrug of indifference. He was sitting in a sidewalk cafe sipping nis aperitif, totally indifferent to what was on the TV set in the back room. He was not the only one in this frame of mind. To many a Frenchman, TV is a new-fangled nuisance threatening to inter fere with his well-organized way of life, especially his enthusiasm for conversation. The Frenchman's remark about the "finest" and "worst" may sound like double talk, but it Is easy to explain. Six years ago French televis- ion adopted a very fine screen j image, made up of 819 lines as ' compared to 405 lines in Great Britain, 525 in most of North ; and South America, and 625 lines on most of the European continent including Russia. This fine lineage makes the j picture look much sharper since it preserves more details. It also permits an eventual increase in the size of TV screens far be yond the limits to which the ; coarser lineage will be able to i go. There are practically no j flaws in the French image, hence, "finest." And "worst" for program con tent. Of course, not all French men will agree on this point, but to the non-partisan visitor the programs lack imagination and vigor. TV Tax There are a few shows in the revue category that display the traditional Gallic sparkle, but the run-of-the-mill is still raw, betraying the hand of a none-too-inspired novice. This does not mean that French TV is in a hopeless rut. It will emerge from the present stage as soon as the skilled hands of the French theatre and the entertainment field in general get into it seriously. Thus far, France's directors and stars have mostly ignored the medium or have treated it in a patronizing manner. All this is bound to change when more Frenchmen buy sets and acquire the TV habit. At present, not more than 400,000 TV sets are in operation. Set owners pay 4,300 francs (S12.43) in a TV tax which many have been ignoring with the re sult that France must have some 100,000 TV "pirates," if not more. Television transmitters reach out into two-thirds of the coun try, with about 50 hours of pro gramming per week. A dozen re gional transmitters beam the Paris output, of which 60 per j cent is "live" and 40 per cent I on mm, but some 01 tnem Lille, Strasbourg, Lyons, Mar i seille, Metz use an hour or so for local events. Cheaper Set Needed Paris now has 10 TV studios from which existing national programs emanate and is going ahead with plans for a film cen ter to make its own filmed TV shows. In this case Paris stands for the headquarters of Radio- ; diffusion Television Francaise, the government - controlled ! French radio-TV network. 1 It is from these studios that j such entertainment events as live theatre, variety shows and j other musical shows are sent out. j These, incidentally, are also the 1 public's favorites, with such en j tertaincrs as Jean Nohain and j Giles Margaritis occupying top ' spots of popularity, i But recently a filmed half 1 hour series starring singer Line i Renaud be.-dmtr an instanta f neous success, indicating that the ! French TV viewer is open to j anything new and entertaining. The Renaud series is being ; filmed under makeshift condi tions while biding its time. The arrival of the first French filmed TV entertainment has set back j the chances for America's filmed 1 TV shows which have been j knocking on France's door. The I same applies to Great Britain's filmed TV. French TV, it seems would like to go it alone, if possible. And it wants to develop slow i ly. There may be 60 hours of programming by 1960 but hard ly any sooner. The chief obstacle, the high cost of TV sets, (approximately $200 to $305); will be overcome until a cheaper popular set is introduced. Such a set (at ap proximately $140) is already on the drawing boards of the Syn dicate des Constructeurs. The question even then will remain about how to overcome the Gallic insistence on cafe life and small talk. The French man minus his tongue ceases to be a Frenchman. And TV, he is afraid, may silence him. Research in Smog Gets Financial Boost Riverside, Calif. U.R) Smog research at the University of California campus here has re ceived a financial boost. The Air Pollution Foundation of Los Angeles gave a $900 grant which Dr. Glenn W. Todd, as sistant biochemist in the citrus experiment station, said would be used to find out how natural air pollutants affect plant "breathing," or carbon dioxide release. His research will be done at Stanford Research Institute. It may make possible important field tests of smog effect on citrus and avocado trees. Around Hollywood Hollywood (U.R) Nanette Ta bray has collected a new fiancee, a new TV series and an Emmy award that, she sadly sighs, has kick ed up "an em b a r r a s sing fuss." The pert nosed si n g e r arrived here f r o m N e w" York fresh i. r o m geumg Aline Mosby engaged to screenwriter Ronald MacDoiigall, singing for an NBC series and taking the "best com edienne" award for her work during the first half of last year's Sid Caesar television show. But Nanette was met by the dull thud of a controversy in TV circles as to whether she should have accpted the Emmy because she left the show in June. Flattered by Award "All this fuss has been embar rassing," confessed Nanette. "I was flattered and thrilled to win. I was sure people would have forgotten my work on Sid's show. But to read all this to-do because I was on the show only half of last year! Pat Carroll of Caesar's show, who won the sup porting Emmy, was on only part of last fall, less than I was. "Actually the TV awards are set up cockeyed," she continued. "The TV year begins in October and ends in June, so the Emmy's should be judged for the season, not the calendar year. I think they should launch the fall sea son with a bang by handing out tile awards in September." Return to Caesar Possible . Nanette's Emmy might play cupid and bring her back to Caesar's show, now that Janet Blair is "divorcing" the comic. If an opportunity came to work By ALINE MOSBY United Preu Correspondent with Caesar again; Nanette says, "I wouldn't pass it up, although I don't know whether I would want to do an hour show every week again." Meantime she is busy with her own projects. She plays a lady pitcher who joins a male base ball team on NBS's ."Kaiser Al uminum Hour" April 23. Come June, she'll begin film ing a TV 'series in which she'll play a Calamity Jane-type. Some time this year "when we're both free from work" she and Mac Dougall will tie the knot.
