THURSDAY. DECEMBER g, 1960 o o o MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE, MEDFORD, ORE. Chrysler Employees Faced With a. Bleak Christmas Under Regulation Detroit - Christmas will be comparatively bleak for the families of administrative per sonnel of the auto companies this year. All of the auto companies have sent out special mem orandums advising these em ployees that company policies forbids acceptance of any gifts of more than nominal value from any of the companies doing business with their em ployer. Result of Controversy The renewed emphasis on this policy obviously is a re sult of the controversv over conflicts of interest at Chrys ler corp. earlier this year, which ultimately led to the iorcea resignation of former Lnrysler president William C Newberg. One Chrysler purchasing department employee said; "Last year it took me about 2V hours Just to open all the gifts I received from various supplier companies. But this year I can't accept anything more than a cigarette lighter or a fountain pen.

Food Storaga Hints Handy During Holidays Holidays coming on week e$ts thlfiyear are likely to tax our food stgage facilities to the limit; so ihey must be used to the very best advan tage. These actually art year- when we open our gifts on Christmas." Like the other "companies, Chrysler sent a "reminder" of its policy in this regard to all employees and all vendors dealing with the company. Cooperative Basis The memorandum, signed by Chrysler board chairman and president L. L. Colbert, said: "We believe that buyer-seller relations should be on a friendly and cooperative basis. But we feel the acceptance of gifts or favors beyond adver tising novelties of nominal value (so-called remembrance advertising) may be subject to misinterpretation. "Therefore, our policy, which is in effect at Christ mas time and throughout the year, is that our employees are not to accept gifts or favors of any kind beyond such remembrance advertising from those with whom the corporation does business. If any gift beyond remem brance advertising is received by any employee of Chrysler Corp. it will be returned to the sender or will be donated to some charitable organiza tion. Only in this way can we avoid the consequences that will result for both parties if the policy is violated. Although the "conse quences" were not specifical ly stated, employees were given to understand that ' it meant dismissal for them and the loss of Chrysler's business for the supplier. A Chrysler spokesman said circulation of a memorandum to this effect was a regular procedure at Chrysler but he admitted that the last time it was done was in 1956. Ford, General Motors, American Motors and Stude-baker-Packard circulated sim ilar memorandums this year. Some of these companies said they circulated similar mem- A Too lata 1o Classify EQUITY $75 '56 BuiciTspecfiTl 4-dr hardtop. Balanc. 750. 3i5 Apple St.. alter 5 pro. All day Saturday. orandums just before Christ mas every year but others ad mitted that there was more emphasis on the policy of not accepting gifts from supplier companies this year. "The guys at Chrysler are n't the only ones who are going to be hurt at Christmas by the Newberg affair," an employee of one of the other auto companies said. "I may have to buy my own liquor next year and I'll probably even have to go out and get my own turkey for Christmas dinner. I haven't bought liquor or a Christmas turkey i in over five years.

Church IQtn Se ivy St. Artificial Mother Rewards Ducklings Washington -(Science Serv ice)- Sight of an artificial sub stitute mother can be used in place of food or water as a re ward when teaching duck lings, Dr. Neil Peterson, Har vard University psychologist reported in Science. He found that after duck lings had learned to follow a moving yellow cylinder dur ing the impressionable early hours of life, a type of learn- ing called imprinting, they could be taught to peck on a Flexiglas key when rewarded by a sight of the yellow cylin der "mother." In one experiment, the ducklingss were rewarded af ter ten pecks when the key was lighted. In a second ex periment the key was dark and the ducklings were re warded only after they had not pecked at the key for a minute. After four hours of training on these two exper iments, the ducklings learned to peck at the key only when it was lighted and stay away from it when it was dark. round rulei but perhaps the reminders will be helpful. As a matter of fact, we mention this because we saw a post-Thanksgiving refriger ator that was so jamb-packed there was no room for cold air to circulate and the owner wondered why the food wasn't cold. She said she hadn't realized that It was necessary for cold air to cir culate when w tactfully (we hope) mentioned this little item. Remove paper coverings from all food except pack aged frozen food. Paper acts as insulation and prevents cold from reaching the food. All meat and fish should be loosely covered with wax ed paper and placed directly below the freezing compart ment. Fresh milk, cream and egg nog should be placed in the refrigerator as soon as possi ble to retard bacteria growth and to prevent destruction of vitamin C by sunlignt. Keep frozen fruits in cold est spot. Due to high sugar content, they need more cold than meat and vegetables in order to stay frozen. Ice cream and home-frozen desserts should be placed in freezing compartment. Do not prepare salads too far in advance. They lose crispness and attractiveness. Fish, chicken and turkey sal ads should not be prepared until practically ready to serve. Perishables to be kept at moderate 40 to 43 degrees, temperature with high humid ity (85 to SO per cent) should be placed in covered com partment or in moisture-proof bags. Wash lettuce, celery, en dive before placing in com partment; also spinach, kale and other greens. Excess wa ter should be removed by draining before placing in compartment.
