12 MAIL TRIBUNE. Medford". Oreqsn, Friday, Novtmfeir 7. 1958
Is That
The jack salmon of the Pa
cific Coast, as Mojo Lampe,
of Everett, Wash., pointed out
in a recent letter, is probably
the most mysterious of the
mysterious almon tribe.
It is a small salmon, a verg
ing two pounds and rarely
exceeding six, is a superb
fighter for the angler using
light tackle, and almost all of
them are males.
Why the jack, more com
monly known as the grilse, is
almost invariably a male is
that for some mysterious rea
son some male salmon become
sexually mature far earlier
than others. When that matur
ity arrives, the salmon heads
for his native stream.
Examples of this advanced
maturity occur among sock
eye, king, coho or dog salmon.
The king salmon, for example,
spawns in its fourth to seventh
years, chiefly the fourth for
the female. The male, how
ever, may not go to the spawn
ing beds until the seventh or
eighth year when he has at
tained a weight of 60 or 70
pounds. But some king males
mature in their second or
third years, and those are the
jacks or grilses of that species.
For years if was believed
that jacks were stunted fish,
but scale studies of ages show
they are not. A king jack will
weigh ounce for ounce with a
a normal King maie oi me
same age, the only detectible
difference being sexual ma-

turity or the lack of it.
Not Due to Diet
So far as can be determin
ed, the difference is not due
to diet but to an unknown
factor. Whatever it is, it must
be a powerful one to bring
a fish to maturity two or
three times faster than anoth
er of the same species.
The jack's spawning run be
gins later in the year, but that
is the only difference I can
find between him and a nor
mal salmon. Life evidently be
gins the same for the jack as
for others. When the eggs
hatch out in early spring, the
tiny salmon spends the first
six weeks or so living on the
yolk. When that is gone and
he has begun eating tiny or
ganisms, he may start out
immediately for the sea or de
cide to spend a year in fresh
water. Unless he is a dog
salmon or humpback they
leave immediately.
Those of the kings, cohoes
or sockeyes that spend a year
in fresh water seem to survive
better when they reach the
sea, but they apparently do
not grow so fast. But that is
no clue to the mystery of the
jack. There are both big and
little king jacks, and age stud
ies show they could have spent
one or two years in the sea.

Italy Protests
Passages Used
By Montgomery
Rome -WTO- Italy has offi
cially protested to the British
government against passages
m the World War II memoirs
of Field Marshal Viscount
Montgomery which it con
sidered offensive to the honor
of Italian soldiers.
Premier Amintore Fanfani
instructed the Italian am
bassador in London to convey
the protest to the Foreign
Office. The move followed a
storm of indignation by the
Italian press and patriotic or
ganizations over Montgom
ery's remarks.
Text Not Announced
The text of the Italian pro
test was not announced im
mediately. But in a simultaneous cable
to the Italian Veterans Asso
ciation, Fanfani lashed out
bitterly at "the opposing com
mander who repeats insults
pronounced in past years by
the leaders of world Commu
nism." In his cable, Fanfani noted
that he planned to go to
Egypt shortly to inaugurate a
memorial to Italian soldiers
killed in the Battle of El Ala-
mein on the North 'African
front - the battle in which
Montgomery said the Italians
did not "fight hard."
Rome -(UPD- Vincenzo Capu-
to, president of the Italian Na
tionalist Association, chal
lenged British Field Marshal
Montgomery to a duel, saying
the Britisher had "defamed"
Italian troops.
In London, Montgomery re
plied he would have nothing
to do with it. He said he did
not own a pistol and that duel
ing was not allowed in Eng
land. Caputo's association has no
known members and he is
considered a publicity seeker
here.

Weapons Due
For Tunisia
Paris - (UPD - The United
States and Britain are prepar
ing to ship "light and med
ium" weapons to Tunisia to
strengthen the hand of pro-
Western President H a b i b
Bourguiba, diplomatic sources
said today.
They said France has of
fered no objection to the ship
ment.
Although the weapons were
not described in detail, the
term "light and medium"
might cover all such equip
ment as small arms, heavy
machine guns and perhaps
light artillery.
Unconfirmed reports said
the weapons, believed to be in
quantities sufficient to equip
"a few battalions" of Tunisian
troops, would be shipped with
in a few weeks.
French approval of the ship
ment provided a sharp con
trast to the uproar here last
year when it was learned that
500 U. S. rifles and 420 Brit
ish submachine guns had been
shipped to the Tunisians. -
Salem Man Held
In Hunting Death
Dallas, Ore (UPD David
Michael McGee, 36, Salem,
was arrested Thursday on a
warrant charging manslaugh
ter in the hunting death last
Oct. 21 of Amnon S. Grice.
Grice was a former presi
dent of the Oregon Farmers
Union.
District Attorney Walter
Foster of Polk county issued
the warrant for McGee's ar
rest following a report from
the state police crime labora
tory in Salem that indicated
Grice had been shot with Mc
Gee's .35 caliber rifle.
At first, police thought
Grice had been killed with
his own gun while hunting
with seven other farmers near
his Orchard Heights home.
McGee was arraigned be
fore Justice of the Peace Dar
rell J. Williams. Bail was set
at $5,000.
Palestine Refugees
Debated by UN
United Nations, N.Y.-OJPD-The
United Nations launches
debate on the future of about
900,000 Palestine Arab refu
gees today.
Leslie J. Carver, acting di
rector of the U.N. Relief and
Works Agency (UNRWA)
was scheduled to report to the
U.N. special political commit
tee on his group"s operations
in Palestine.
Carver has pleaded for
$37,500,000 for its 1959 opera
tions contending that work
for the refugees is "essential
ly a matter of peace and
order for the Near East and
for the world."

Democrats Call
For Probe of
General Motors
Washington-ZUPD-Democrats
on the Senate anti-monopoly
subcommittee have called for
a federal investigation to de
termine whether the courts
should be asked to break up
General Motors Corp.
But a Republican subcom
mittee member promptly
charged the Democratic ma
jority with "unwarranted ef
frontery" and ' "sly insinua
tions" against the giant car
manufacturing firm.
The Democrats led by sub
committee Chairman E s t e s
Kefauver (D-Tenn.) late
Thursday issued a 183-page
report urging the Justice De
partment to conduct "a thor
ough examination of monop
oly aspects of the automobile
industry."
The report' said the subcom
mittee's own hearings showed
"little doubt that the hard
core of the monopoly problem
in the automobile industry is
in the concentration of pro
duction and power held by
GM."
Attack on Monopoly
Asserting that information
from its own hearings and
elsewhere might open the
way to a new overall attack
on monopoly, the majority
said its comment was "parti
cularly applicable to GM and
may apply also to Ford and
Chrysler."
The report was signed by
Kefauver and Sens. Thomas
C. Hennings Jr. (D-Mo.), Jo
seph C. O'Mahoney (D-Wyo.)
and John A. Carroll (D-Colo.).
Sen. Everett M. Dirksen (R-
111.) fired off a sharply-word
ed 101-page dissent charging
that the majority report clear
ly was written by the subcom
mittee staff and largely re
flected the views of staff
economist John M. Blair.
Dirksen, who may be Sen
ate GOP leader in the next
Congress, said the report is
"so handicapped by errors
both as to facts and conclu
sions as to impeach its credi
bility and eliminate its use
fulness."
ilia Forest
Roads Said Blocked
Pendleton-(UPD-Forest serv
ice officials warned hunters
in eastern Oregon and south
west Washington today that
roads in almost all sections
of the Umatilla forest are
blocked due to wind, rain
and downed trees.
Officials said the condition
is expected to last through
Saturday in most areas, and
warned elk hunters and other
sportsmen in" higher eleva
tions to make preparations to
leave the area in the event
of a snowfall.
Walla Walla district ranger
Homer Oft said trees have
been blown down in the main
trunk roads in the main areas
of the forest in southeast
Washington. Roads in an area
north of Tollgate in the Blue
Mountains also were reported
blocked.
Television Quiz
Producer Arrested
New York-(UPD-District At
torney Frank Hogan announc
ed today the arrest of Albert
Freedman, producer of the
TV quiz show "Twenty-One"
on two charges of perjury.
In a grand jury indictment
handed up today it was charg
ed that Freedman, 36, "know
ingly lied when he appeared
before the grand jury to an
swer questions as to whether
he supplied questions and an
swers to 21 contestants before
they appeared on the pro
gram. Hogan said the grand jury
charged Freedman "in fact,
revealed questions and an
swers to contestants prior to
their appearances." Hogan
did not say how many con
testants were involved.
Freedman faces a possible
10 years in jail and $10,000
fine if convicted of the
charges.
MERGER PLANNED
NNew York (UPD- The di
rectors of General Telephone
Corp. and Sylvania Electric
Products Thursday announced
plans to merge into a firm to
be known as General Tele
phone and Electronics Corp.
Tax Forms Due
For Mailing
Washington - (UPD -The In
ternal Revenue Service will
start mailing out a record 60
million individual income tax
returns shortly after Christ
mas. Persons who did not file
last year and who don't get
forms in the mail may obtain
them from post offices, banks
and local internal revenue of
fices. Officials said the service
held off mailing out the re
turns until after Christmas
so they would not swell the
normally heavy Christmas
time burden on the post of
fice. The most important change
in this years tax filing pro
cedure is that the short, punch
card return may be used by
taxpayers who earn up to $10,
000 a year. Previously the
punch card could be filed only
by those making up to $5,000.
On the long return, the well
known form 1040, the service
has dropped the controversial
expenses account line 6 A,
which set off a storm of pro
test when it was announced
last year.
Russia Stages
Atomic Tests,
President Says
Washington iUPD President
Eisenhower announced today
that Russia has staged two
atomic weapons tests since
East-West test ban negotia
tions started Oct. 31.
He said this country and
Great Britain will continue
their test suspension for the
time being but warned that
the Soviet action "relieves the
United States of any obliga
tion" to do so.
The President said that if
the Russians did not stop
their weapons experiments,
the U.S. "will be obliged to
reconsider" the test suspen
sion which Britain and this
country put into effect when
the Geneva talks began.
Small Yield Weapons
The Atomic Energy Com
mission said the Russians
staged test explosions of rela
tively small yield weapons
Nov. 1 and Nov. 3 at its south
ern Russian test site. Previ
ously the AEC had reported
14 Soviet explosions at the
test site north of the Arctic
Circle.
The President recalled that
on Aug. 22 he proposed that
the East and West suspend
tests for a year from the day
negotiations for a permanent
ban got under way. Britain
agreed.
But the Russians, while
agreeing to start negotiations,
claimed the right to continue
testing until they had explod
ed as many weapons as the
U.S. and United Kingdom had
fired since the last Soviet test
series which ended March 22.
The Russians accordingly
resumed testing Sept. 30, after
a suspension of six months,
and have not yet stopped.
Californian Killed
In Upset of Truck
Macdoel. Calif. - (UPD -
Louis M. Luzzi, 20, of Mac
doel, was killed instantly
Thursday when his flatbed
truck, loaded with Christmas
trees, went out of control and
overturned on him.
The California Highway
Patrol said Luzzi was driving
rlown Haight Mountain from
Tenant, Calif., when he lost
control of the truck. They
said it appeared he tried to
halt the vehicle by running
it into a bank but it apparent
ly flipped over and -crushed
him underneath it.
The youth is survived by
his wife, an infant son and
his parents.
