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.
Petroleum is composed of car
bon and hydrogen.

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.

dreams come true?
What a thrill for Betty the day she
becomes a full-fledged airline host
esspert little cap and all! But,
the chances are, that big day may
never come.
Betty lives in a community where
there's a serious shortage of class
rooms, teachers and good school

for Betty than she needs.
Let's see that this doesn't happen in
our schools. You can help by sup

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. Use Mail Tribune Classified Ads
