30 days in justice court on each
of three charges, 90 days in all,
and her husband was given a 30
day sentence on one count.
Justice of the Peace J. A. Ma
honey said today that the Mc
Neils had requested that they
be given paroles, and that his
authority came under a provi
sion of law which allows the
committing magistrate to parole
persons who are confined in
county Jails for a period of un
der six months.
Mrs. McNeil, he said, was ill
with arthritis and gall stones
and needed an operation, which
would have been an expense to
the county had she been kept
in Jail.
Judge Mahoney also said that
McNeil told him he had a Job
waiting for him in Lake county.
Mrs. McNeil paid a $160

thev are still buying meat and
butter they arc BUYING LESS
at the higher prices.
"THIS Portland experience is
significant because discrimi
nation in buying that is to say,
buying less when the price is
too high represents sound and
normal working of the law of
supply and demand.
Because it is sound and normal
it will probably CONTINUE,
and if it continues it will be ef
fective in restoring a balance be
tween supply and demand and
so will in the course of time
bring prices down.
'T'HE tendency of a spectacular
week-long "strike" on the
buying of meat, etc., will be to
do without for a week and then
to feel that you've done your
duty and go on a steak binge.
GESTURES usually work out
that way.
The Portland housewives have
a much better method.
Jap Tuna Men
Help Shortage
TOKYO, July 17 (P) Fish
ing is good for Japan's increased
tuna fleet now that it operates
as far as 165 degrees east longi
tude almost to Wake island.
And good fishing is helping the
critical food shortage at home.
Soviet Russia at first opposed
extension of Japan's fishing
area, but the allied control
council for Japan approved
larger fishing grounds for the
Japanese nonetheless, and no
further Russian protests were
heard.
Capt. J. L. Kask of San Fran
cisco, member of the allied pow
ers fisheries section, said today
the tuna fleets almost doubled
their usual catches when word
was flashed to them that they
could move eastward to 165 de
grees. Japanese fishing boats also
have been permitted to run
closer to the China coast, and
there, too, report heavier catch

Wheeler Loses
Primary Race
By The Associated Praia
Senator Burton K. Wheeler,
veteran chairman of the senate
interstate commerce committee
who was tabbed by his Montana
democratic primary opponent as
a "leading isolationist," conceded
defeat today in his bid for a
fifth term.
Lief Erickson, 40 -year-old
former state Judge, apparently
won the nomination from Wheel
er after a bitter contest, in which
Wheeler's labor views also were
attacked.
Wheeler congratulated his op
ponent after Erickson had main
tained consistently a lead of
around 4509 as the count of
Tuesday's votes progressed. With
689 of 1158 precincts reported,
Erickson had 38.984 and Wheeler
34.362.
A letter from President Tru
man defending Wheeler's record
on railroad labor was made pub
lic a few days before the voting.
John L. Lewis' United Mine
Workers also supported the vet
eran legislator.
Erickson was backed by James
Roosevelt, son of the late presi
dent; Senator Murray (D-Mont.),
Wheeler's colleague; the CIO
PAC, and the Brotherhood of
Railroad Trainmen.
His November opponent will
be Zalcs N. Ecton, Manhattan
farmer, who easily won the re
publican nomination from R. E.
Skeen, a railroad brakeman.
Presidential Trip
Reported In Error
SAN FRANCISCO, July 17 P)
Col. Howard E. Engler, Hamilton
field commanding officer, said
today field public relations had
"released through error" an an
nouncement that President Tru
man was expeotcd' to come to
San Francisco Monday.
"It was a mistake: I certainly
regret it; that's all I can say,"
he declared. "Our information
was that the president probably
would make the trip but we had
no authority whatever to re
lease it."
Shortly after the original an
nouncement was made, President
Truman in Washington said he
did not plan to make the trip.

today and caused at least five
, deaths.
i The Dcs Moines river rose 11.5
feet in 24 hours at Eddyville, 16
miles upstream from here, and
! was expected to rise another
: three feet.
I The deluge was restricted to a
relatively small area, but the

; out much of the region.
The same area was hit by
costly floods about a month ago.

(Continued From Pago One)
telephone men as a 400-piilr
cable, curries H00 lines and ruble
crewmen will have to "tag" the
wires to each termlna, Seavey
suid. It is a gigantic tusk and the
crews worked from the time they
arrived here throughout the
night and were still working lute
this afternoon. Seavey said a
flood of inquiries as to "what's
wrung with the line" swept into
the downtown offlco of the tele
phone company when folks
found they were without tele
phone service. At least 1000 local
lines were affected.
Tho damage was caused by a
construction crew employe who
was working on the laying of a
sewer pipe line as part of the big
S. Uth street improvement pro
gram. The workman hud dug a
trench, three to four feel deep
unci some four feet wide. When
he struck the metal pipe, he used
a buck saw to cut through, also
cutting it again, taking out a
chunk of pipe about three feet
long.
Scavey said prints, carrying
the locution of the vital cubic,
hud been supplied construction
crews in an effort to prevent Just
such accidents.
Early yesterday afternoon,
when the cable cut was discov
ered, telephone .men thought
that It was the cubic which
served Liikevlew and the Merrill
district. This, however, wus cor
rected shortly after Seavey in
spected the damage.
