U our convnnnt Parking lot nit doer Disapproval of Airline Merger Recommended Washington -H'Pt- A Civil Aeronautics Board examiner has recommended that the board disapprove the propos ed merger of American and Eastern airlines on the grounds that it would restrain compe tition. Ralph L. Wiser, in a strong ly worded 73-page recom mended decision, said that the merger would create a monop oly in seven major air passen ger markets in the eastern half of the nation, thereby jeopardizing the continued ex istence of Northeast Airlines Inc. If consuniated. Wiser said, the merger would violate a section of the Clayton Anti trust Act. It would give the merged carrier "a concentra tion of resources and power" that would "enable it to dom inate trunkline air transporta tion in the United States," he said. The merger also "would make impossible" continua tion of the CAB policy of maintaining competition among th big four longhaul carriers and between them and other airlines, Wiser held. He rejected contentions by the carriers that their profits have declined primarily as a result of excessive competi tion. "The decline has been caused in large part by the procurement of a fleet of jet aircraft designed for a vol ume of traffic which has fail ed to develop" and by other factors, Wiser said. The merger of Eastern and American was opposed in hearings before the board by eight of nine other long-haul carriers, by several unions, the Justice Department and by the CAB staff. Eastern primarily flies north-south routes in the east ern half of the United States, with terminals as far west as Minneapolis and Fort Worth. American is primarily a transcontinental carrier. That Other 1 Per Cent Agriculture Department Press Releases Deal in Exotic Matters By DICK WEST Washington - OTP - Anyone who thinks of the Agriculture Department as just another dull adminis trative agency is about 99 per cent right. But that other 1 per cent. Brother! I have here at hand a couple of recent de p a r t mental press releases which deal with matters that are as exotic as bureacracy can get, give or take the Export-Import Bank. "Evaporation is prime fac tor in cow s adjustment to hot weather, says USDA scien tist." That was the headline her alding the work of J. R. Wel dy, a dairy husbandman of the Agricultural Research Service, who has been study ing the perspiration traits of cattle. ' "Evaporation of water from the skin of cattle through sweating is the most import ant way these animals dissi pate heat from their bodies," Tax Considerations Subject of Meeting Income tax considerations and special farm management necessary because of wind damage will be the subjects discussed at a meeting in the courthouse in Grants Pass at B o'clock tonight, according to Earle Jossy, Jackson county extension agent. Manning Becker, farm man agement specialist with the Oregon stale extension serv ice, will explain tax deduc tions available to owners of property which has been dam aged by the storm. He also will discuss management prac tices which might be used to reduce the total damage, Jossy said. For Half-Sizes SIZES 7 12 Weldy reported. Cows differ widely in their ability to sweat, he added, and the more they perspire the better they ad just to constant high tem perature. The next step in the re search is to determine wheth er sweating is heriditary, but I strongly suspect that is only a "cover" story. I would be willing to wager that Weldy actually is trying to develop a bovine deodor ant. "Genetic discovery brings hybrid wheat nearly reality." That was the headline on the other release which revealed that departmental agrono mists have discovered a "miss ing link" in grain evolution. "In order to produce hy brid wheat seed, a seedsman must first grow wheat plants with flowers that are male sterile and therefore ca n n o t fertilise them selves." the department ex plained. "But before a farmer can make practical use of the hy brid seed, from male sterile plants, the seedsmen must The fuel capacity of the) Boeing B-52H missile-launch-ing bomber is so great it re quires nearly five railroad tank cars for filling. make another cross with a plant ill a t will restore male , fertility. Otherwise, the far-' mers' plant would produce no kernels" It now appears that fertil ily restorer genes have been : discovered. The hope is that j this will make it possible for sterile plants to restore their i own fertility, and thus in crease the yield. If so, we can all look for- j ward to bigger and better crops of surplus wheal.
