PACE SIX HERALD AND NEWS, KLAMATH FALLS, OREGON sen 1 PRIORITY FOR MATERIAL EYED By TOM HEEDY WASHINGTON, Aug. 18 (Pi Proposals lo give schools and (arms priorities for surplus war materials today hoisted a high barrier in the house to passage of one of the adminis tration's key postwar plans. Chairman Manasco D-Ala. ns floor manager for the admin istration of the bill creating a surplus property disposal agen cy, strove for approval by night fall. But he conceded that the pending amendments are of more than ordinary interest. fiep. Tarver (D-Ga.) offered the plan to require that the surplus property administrator channel suitable goods to voca tional and trade schools, with out charge. An amendment to permit leasing of equipment to .soil conservation districts was pro posed by Rep. Poage (D-Tex.) Manasco served notice his forces would fight any such fundamental changes. To me; that's making a gift of surplus war property," he declared. ."It's our duty to see that the nation gets every pos sible dollar out of this mate rial." At the same time the recon version measure, as adopted by the senate, ran into fresh crit icism in the house where it still is in the committee stage. Kep. Celler (D-N.Y.) led a bi partisan bloc in a movement to obtain unemployment compen sation benefits up to S35 a week for war veterans and 325 for civilians for 52 weeks over a two-year period. The senate bill leaves this up to the state to determine . individually. ACM HEM. ESTATE USIKESS PREDICTED Building and real estate will be extremely active when peace comes, it was predicted in a talk to the Kiwanis club Thurs day by Ed Chilcote, veteran Klamath real estate man. He said he could foresee no defla tion in real estate values, such as has been prophesied in some quarters. ' Chilcote . also stated that money -will be plentiful and cheap for building and real estate investments. There are large funds ready to go to work the moment the unsettled condi tions of war-time are ended. The real estate man spoke disapprovingly of OPA rent con trol, stating that local or vol untary control would be more fair to all concerned. A mod erate increase in returns to property owners, along with thr general increase in wages, pro fits, etc., is. not out of line, he said. Half-Fare Rates For Dischargees Slated by Trains SALEM. Aug. 18 UP) Oregon railroads will give discharged personnel halt fare rates begin ning September 1, Public Utili ties Commissioner George H. Flagg announced today. Flagg said all other states are expected to take similar action. SIDE GLANCES l I : 1 V. .J It IJl COPS lft4 BV HC SCBVCt. ISC. T. W EC U. S. PAT OfK- 8-18 "I'm going to. star! dinner now.

Battle Over Vet, Union Seniority Out In Open By GARETH MUCHMORE NEW YORK, Aug. 18 rP) A developing conflict between union seniority and veterans' preference in the rehiring of ex servicemen was out in the open today after a debate between a selective service official and a union representative. , Employers were left in the middle, still apparently caught in the crossfire of union versus selective service interpretations of the selective service law. Col. Paul H. Griffith, chief of the veterans' personnel di vision of selective service, con tended in a discussion yesterday before the national industrial conference board .that a return ing veteran' "is entitled to his old job back even though he displaces a man with greater seniority. Victor G. Reuther, assistant director of the war policy di vision of the United Auto Work ers (CIO), told the private re search organization, made up chiefly of emoloyers in industry; that such a policy seemed "foreign to the intent" of the act, and it would "be a big mis take to get jobs tor veterans by taking them away from some one else. Reuther asserted the inter pretation of the act would create dissension pitting veterans against civilians, and would give veterans superseniority. Griffith declared he was for superseniority for veterans. Reuther contended that the law provided only for "like seniority" that is, that military service should be added to work seniority, and that a veteran would contend for jobs on an aggregate seniority basis. - Griffith cited the law saying a man is entitled to nis Job back it: 1 we reports within 40 days: 2 His discharge was honorable: 3 He is qualified to do the work; 4 The employer's circumstances are not changed radically. Those conditions met, Griffith said, a "returning veteran gets his job even if this means dis charging a non-veteran with more seniority." Bowling Alley Sets Date For Reopening Reopening Saturday night, August 10, at 6 o'clock, is the Servicemen's bowling alley at 605 Klamath. The alley has been refinished under the direc tion of experienced bowling al ley men and will be open to all servicemen every day from 6 to 11 p. m., and on Sundays from 1 to 11 p. m.

Stark, chamber secretary. Persons de siring office help are urged to contact, the chamber of com merce office.
