VISITING in San Francisco, James Hoffa, Teamster Un ion president, denies threat ening nation-wide strike if Congress applies antitrust laws to unions. Plastic Garment Bag Maker Has Use Suggestions Kordite corporation has an- , nounced plans for a public education program to prevent further suffocation deaths to children from the "plastic gar ment bags it manufactures. Kordite, one of the largest bag makers, claims it is the first to undertake such a cam paign. , The program includes sup plying counter cards, and tags for garment hangers, " at no charge to launderers and to cleaners who use Kordite materials." The cards and tags are to read, "Caution: for safety rea sons keep plastic bags away from children as you would matches or medicines." Howard Samuels, Kordite president, offered these sug gestions for safe use of the bags: Suggestions "1. Keep the bags away from children. "2. Treat the bags with the safe respect accorded matches or cutlery. "3. They're not toyt-don't play with them! "4. When the bags hare outlived their sensible use fulness, destroy and throw them away. "5 Never use a plastic bag as covering, for a crib mat tress. "All of us are tremendously concerned," Samuels said, "over accidents that occur to young children. The death of even one child is a terrible tragedy and the number of these incidents is appalling." Over 30 infants across the country have suffocated so far this year. The polyethylene plastic, through which air can not pass, is drawn by a child's breathing against the nose and mouth, sealing them off. Human Rights Council Meets Ashland The Human Eights council met Thursday evening at the. Trinity Parish hall for their last study meet ing until fall. ' . Francis . Kelly reported on the ninth Oregon forum on lntergroup relations which he attended at Portland State college earlier in the month. The theme of the conference was "Our Concern for human right in Oregon." Kelly stated that it was re ported that a company had given employment, for the first time to members of min ority groups and had exper ienced no difficulty with their being accepted. Soon employ ers were asking for more of them because they were dif ferent personalities and had something to offer. The ex periment was successful large ly because- the company had first established a program of education to prepare employ ers and co-workers for the ad vent of people representing the minorities. Fred Neal, chairman of the Ashland council, stressed that the primary function of the group is education. A round table discussion ' was held on why individuals react to pdejudice the way they do. The board of directors will continue to meet through the summer. Residents Reminded To Cut Weeds-Grass Jacksdnyille-E. O. Graham, mayor, reminds residents that a city ordinance makes own ers responsible for the mow ing of grass and weed remov al from vacant lots in the ,town.
