ArlABlS nf-H'i'-i-iv RICHARD EGAN DOROTHY MALONE I ID Louis B. Mayer, Film Executive, Dies of Anemia Hollywood TP Motion pic ture mogul Louis B. Mayer, im migrant son of an ironmonger who became America's highest paid executive, died early today from the lingering effects of se vere anemia. Mayer, who was 72, had been suffering from the blood dis order since early this year and had undergone several transfu sions recently. The reaction was complicated by a kidney infec tion. Death came at 12:35 a.m. fp.s.t.) in the UCLA Medical Center. Known As 'L. B.' A rotund little man, Mayer known to his intimates as "L.B." was a one-man Horatio Alger story, starting as a seagoing junkman at the age of 14 and rising to earn a salary of SI, 296, 503 in 1937, one of the largest individual paychecks ever re ported by the U.S. Treasury De partment. At the height of his career as movie-maker and race horse owner, Mayer was acknowl edged as the most powerful man in Hollywood. As boss of Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer studios, the world"s largest film fac tory, his merest whim was law to thousands and the elite of movietown respected his judg ment. Independent Producer He resigned from MGM in 1951 and in recent years had worked as an independent pro ducer while he waged a behind-the-scenes battle to regain con trol of the vast studio property at nearby Culver City through the directorship of its parent company, Loews Inc. There had been some critics who com plained he failed to keep pace with the entertainment times. He was born Louis Burt Mayer in Minsk, Russia, July 4, 1885, the son of Jacob Mayer and Sarah Meltzer Mayer. When he was two years old, his parents migrated to Canada's New Brunswick Province. Southeast Gets Rare Cold Weather BY UNITED PRESS The Southeast had the rare distinction of being one of the coldest spots in the nation over night with readings hovering in the chilly 30s from the Ohio Valley and the Virginias south ward. Crossville, Tenn., recorded an early morning temperature of 28 degrees. By contrast, Sault Ste. Marie, Mich., usually one of the coldest spots on the weather map, basked in a mild 42-degree reading. Southerly winds sent tempera tures climbing an average of 10 degrees in the Southern Plains and the Middle Mississippi Valley and westerly winds brought the milder air over the Eastern Great Lakes Region. A high pressure area in the Southeast was responsible for the cold weather there. Wind circulation around the high brought readings into the 40s from Texas north through low er Michigan. .

Pofenlial Timber Harvest Estimated Portland (IF) Oregon has more timber ready to be har vested than it suspected, accord ing to W. D. Hagenstein, execu tive vice president of the Indust rial Forestry association. A recent Forest Service an nouncement said that Lane coun ty had 97 million board feet of timber. In 1942 the estimate was only 64 billion. "The importance of this," Hag enstein said, "is that the new Lane county timber estimate suggests that Oregon has more than 600 billion board feet of timber, .rather than the book keeping estimate of 433 billion board feet made by the govern ment in 1953." The forester called for a speedy reinventory of Oregon's federal forests which have 60 per cent of the state's timber. If harvested each year, an in creased allowable cut would bring federal timber prices down so that homebuilders would buy our products again, he said.

I II Tuesday, October 29, 1957 Last Maioney Witnesses Due Portland (TO Defense Attor ney Howard Lonergan indicated he would finish calling witnesses today at the conspiracy trial of Thomas E. Maioney, now in its sixth week. This would leave only state rebuttal witnesses, final argu ments and instructions before the case goes to the jury. The defense Monday recalled Raymond F. Clark, who testi fied he made a tape recording exhibited by the state as a three way conversation among Ma ioney, ex-District Attorney Wil liam Langley and Joseph Mc Laughlin, Seattle cardroom op erator. Lonergan asked Clark if he did not tell Clifford O. Bennett, former after hours joint opera tor here, that he had altered some tapes "to make Langley back off." Clark declared he did not alter tapes and did not tell Bennett he had. A tape recording which had been purposely altered was played for the jury Monday by Richard Leitner, a Los Angeles electronics engineer. It was of a two-way conversation which had been altered by deleting some of the statements. Bill Rohrer, a sound engineer, re turned to the stand and said there was no foolproof method to determine whether a tape re cording has or has not been altered.

Retail Food Prices Expected To Decline Washington HP) The Agri culture Department said today retail food prices will decline somewhat during the remainder of the year but are expected to average "well above" a year ago. Total consumer spending for food in 1958 is likely to surpass "moderately" "that of 1957, the department said. The increased outlays will be due principally to the population increase and "somewhat higher" prices of food, at least during the first half of 1958. All major commodity groups except beverages are expected to be higher during the rest of this year than last, the depart ment said. Recent reductions In the price of coffee dropped the index for the beverage group below last year's level. The department said the decline for the remainder of this year is normal for the sea son.
