Sugar Strike
Still Continues
Honolulu (IP) Hopes for
settlement of the 84-day-old

further dimmed Friday when
the International Longshore

ions full contract negotiating
committee rejected a manage

the offer down.

Opinion Expected
On Group Expense
The answer to whether it
is legal for the county court
to pay expenses of the budget
committee is expected soon
from Attorney General Rob
ert Y. Thornton, District At
torney Thomas Reeder said
Saturday.
He said his office has writ
ten the attorney general ask
ing for the opinion. He also
said he did not know of any
taxpayer's group interested
in the case, but asked for the
opinion after news accounts
brought it to his attention.
However, County Judge
Rodney Keating said Satur
day the county court wrote
a memorandum to the district
attorney requesting he ask for
an opinion from the attorney
general.
Law Provides
"The law provides that the
budget committee should re
ceive no compensation for its
services," Reeder continued.
"The county court has been
making payments of $10 a day
to budget committee members
as reimbursement for expen
ses. Another question is
whether this money can be
fund or should be a budget
item. The county court has
been taking it from the emer
gency fund, Reeder said.
"It is not compensation, it
is purely expenses," County
Judge Rodney Keating said
Saturday.
He explained further that
the board of equalization
members are paid $10 a day
from which a deduction is
made for industrial accident
insurance since that money is
considered as wages. The
Prominent Korean
Killed By Gang
Philadelphia (IP) In-Ho
Oh, 26, identified as a mem
ber of a politically powerful
Korean family, was beaten to
death by a gang of teen-aged
Negroes Friday night while
walking to mail a letter.
Oh, 'a post-graduate student
of political science at the uni
versity of Pennsylvania, was
found brutally beaten about
the head on the pavement
near his home. Police early
today rounded up six teen
agers and charged three of
them with homicide after
questioning. ' ,
Police said neighbors re
ported seeing a group of young
thugs running away after they
investigated noise that sound
ed like dull "thuds." Oh ap
parently was struck repeat
edly on the head by either a
bottle or club.
Blood was spattered over a
wide area. His pockets were
empty and his glasses lay on
the ground several feet from
him. He died 10 minutes after
he was taken to Presbyterian
hospital.
money paid to the budget
committee members is for ex
penses only, he stated. Other
counties also pay some mon
ey for expenses to their bud
get committee, Keating said
he has learned.
The county judge also ex
plained that this is the second
year the budget committee ex
penses have been paid. Such
activities place too much of
a burden on a man if he does
not receive expenses for his
work on the committee, Keat
ing added.
Army Of Anglers
Hits Detroit, Ore.
Detroit, Ore. (IP) An
army of anglers with boats,
trailers, house trailers and
camping equipment took over
this community Saturday for
the start of fishing season.
Big attraction is none-mile
long Detroit reservoir, which
has been named as one of the
most likely waters in the state
for big catches.
Early this morning traffic
was jammed along the high
way bordering the north rim
of the lake and cars were in
every forest camp wherever
there was room to pull off the
road.
Many business firms here
stayed open all night and oth
ers reopened at 4 a.m. to serve
a possible 8,000 anglers or
more.
While prospects were for
good catches at Detroit reser
voir, elsewhere around the
state streams were running
high and in many cases, muddy.

into velvety, deep green carpets of grass
The difference is in the Pellet. Now from ORTHO
comes a new lawn fertilizer: Each tiny pellet con
tains a balanced meal for your lawn. Everything for
fast green and growth plus steady, continuing nour
ishment! And, because of a new Double-Strength
formula, you actually use only half as much lawn
fertilizer as before.
In "mechanically-mixed" fertilizers, nitrogen, phos
phate and potash components often "settle-out,
The result is uneven growth, underfed and overfed
patches of lawn. But, an exclusive new process "locks
in" balanced concentrates of these nutrients in each
ORTHO Pellet. Your lawn gets a balanced feeding,
which makes for uniform green growth.
Economical! Use only half at much I
Double-Strength formula means
you use only half as much as most
ordinary fertilizers. A 1-lb. coffee
can holds the right amount of
ORTHO Lawn and Garden Food
pellets to cover a lawn 200 sq. ft.
Only ORTHO pellets provide balanced feedings to lawn roots
ORTHO Lawn and Garden Food pel
lets are made by the exclusive PEC
process. Each pellet contains 16 units
of nitrogen, 16 units of phosphate and
8 units of potash. Every root gets a
balanced feeding and even, uniform
growth.
Healthier plants and shrubs, too!
Regular feedings can provide longer
stems, larger blooms and resistance to
diseases. '
