The farmer came up the hard way, getting his cye-teetli cut in the tough depression years that followed the boom of the other war. ITMJSK caught us with the m- enwtinn inh riwhivl n little at the last and we head back to the lovely old house for the late dinner that is the normal Kngusn custom. It was served in a paneled, high-ceilinged dining room, at a vast oaken table, Elowine with the patina that only age and generations of rub bing can produce, on thin old china. It consisted of a main dish of ham bought with POINTS. Under the British rationing system, a farmer can have ONE hog per farm point-free for his own use (naturally, not being moronic, he grows the hog as big as possible) after which he buys his pork like everybody else. There was a salad, two vegetables, beans and potatoes, bread and butter, and a "sweet" stewed plums. The butter was BOUGHT IN TOWN with points. But there was cream, CLOTTED cream, the only cream this writer has seen since leaving America. After dinner, we had coffee in a beautiful library, and chat ted along on this and that until we discovered, rather to our sur prise, that it was 11 p. m. so late that when this writer was driven back to town the hotel, after the custom of all small English hostelries, was dark and locked up tightly and we had to practically raise the town before we could get the proprietor out of bed to open the front door. Quite an unusual farm day for an American. Full of sur prises. 'Slave Driver' Executed In Liege BRUSSELS, Sept. 5 W Dr. Albert Rocour, 37, known as the "slave driver" because he sent hundreds of Belgian youths to Germany for compulsory labor, was executed in Liege yesterday.

About 7 a. m machinists be gan arriving in their cars. They stopped on the hill near the Fairhaven school. Pickets, mean while, formed a cluster near the Weyerhaeuser property line iuu yards away. At about 7:20 o'clock, the ma chinists started down the slope in their cars. The first car driven by Charles Cooper came up to the picket line anrt stop ned, with pickets standing in front of the car and placing their feot on the bumper, there was no apparent effort to drive the cir through them, and Cooper said afterwards he did not go through because the road was blocked. Machinists said they had expected the law officers to have the road clear at that time. The whole procession stopped. Baker came up to the head car, and there ensued a long talk with M. G. King, CIO repre sentative. King urged the AFL men to refrain from attempting to go through the line and said that union men should stick together. 'The American Way" Baker told King he did not regard the CIO strike as "the American way." He said that the AFL considered it an illegiti mate strike. He told King that the CIO had not followed strike procedure set up in the Smith Connally act. To this. King replied that the Smith-Connally act is a "boss's law" and indicated the CIO would ignore it. Baker said that it is a law of the land and so far as his union is concerned, it will win its aims legally. He said his union had fared "very well" un der the war labor board. Baker moved farther back, but stopped to comment that his union was acting in accordance with "grand lodge" instructions. At this. King asked if that is democracy?" Baker replied that the local union had voted to re turn to work. Baker then started back to ward his car and spoke to Low. At that time, Vernon Chase, an other CIO official, came up and began talking to Baker. Meeting Slated Baker asked Chase why the CIO had not held a secret vote on the strike question and Chase answered that the CIO men would interpret their own con stitution. He said that the CIO is willing to negotiate, where upon Baker asked if they would negotiate with the men on the job. Chase shook his head. Finally, the two men discussed the possibility of a meeting with CIO, AFL and company officials present, and it was agreed to try this. Baker suggested that they all go down immediately and talk to the company. Chase said it would not be possible to get his group together that quickly. Then it was agreed to try Thurs day, and later a meeting was called for Thursday at the Wey erhaeuser office with U. S. con ciliation service men present.

There was no violence of nnv kind at the picket line, which consisted ot about 00 men. On one occasion, King waved his fists at Dalo Alter, chief elec trician at the Weyerhaeuser plant, who was walking through the line. Alter has been going to the plant regularly in connec tion with liis work. He had driven through on this occasion but returned to the picket line to sec what it was all about. Alter glanced at King over his shoulder and walked on through to the Weyerhaeuser properly line. King mado a re mark to the effect that "it was bad to let that man through." King sulci later he did not know the man's name or what his business was, and when the man refused to divulge tho informa tion, ho called to him. Baker said that Mis union hud requested agents of tho U. S. conciliation service to be here for Thursday's conference, and that two of them will do so. "We have no dispute with Weyerhaeuser," he said. "We have contractual obligations to fulfill. We have voted to go back to work, and we are going back to work. We hope the con ference will be successful and we can do it w i t h o u t going through the picket line," Phillip Kruz, 44. of Pasadena, Calif., who with his wife was Involved in a motor accident one-half mile west of Beatty Sunday when a tire blew out on their car, was reported to be restinff comfortably today in Klamath Valley hospital.
