SPEAKING of sidelights, here's one on wages: Up nt Hood River yesterday, a migrant worker picked 21(18 pounds of cherries IN ONE DAY, which nt the piecework scale of 31c per pound gave him a pay rheek FOR THE DAY of $75.80 In six preceding dnys. he earned an nvcrngc of $30 n day at tho same piecework scale. The reason for the BIG day waa that someone told him iu' body had ever picked n ton of cherries In n day. So ho turned in nnd DID IT, with 108 pounds ovur tor good measure. THIS Is the point: Ho did It because lio WANT ED TO not because somebody tnlrl him ho HAD TO. There is practically no limit to what wo can do if wo really In Th- Day's lews WANT to. HERE is something clso for In dustry to think about: If this cherry picker had suspected thut it ho earned TOO MUCH his employer would CUT THE PIECEWORK HATE, ho wouldn't have picked 21UU pounds In n day, In the past, too many employ ers havo done Just that, thus giv ing piecework pay a bad iiamo.

Hero Is apparently about what happened: Coffee helped a II'iiiiUiiudS on I'M t, Col, 07 ngnjnst Hermann Goerlng and his 21 co-defendants after eight month of testimony and debate. Jackson declared: "Adolph Hitler's acts are their acts. Hi guilt Is the guilt of the whole dock and overv man in it." Jackson was followed by the chief Uritlsh prosecutor. Sir llurtley W. Shuwcri), who lc clured the prisoners were guilty of "12.000.000 murder." lie dcclured they participated In und directed "the cold, cal culated, deliberate attempt to destroy nation and race, to disintegrate tho traditions, the Institutions nnd the very ex istence of free and, ancient state through murder conduct ed like some mass production Industry in the gu chamber and the oven" of death camp. Kor the first time in ovcral month, there hardly wa an empty scat in the courtroom. Han Milling Rudolf He, the third rank ing German before he para chuted into Scotland and start ed hi Incredible Insanity hoax, was the only defendant missing besldo Martin IJormann, tried in absentin but often termed dead. Once when Jackson was re lating how the German army, navy and air force grew, pnunchy 'Hermann Goerlng and Grand Adm. Erich Raeder start ed a heated argument that mlll tiiry police had to break up. All the defendants except Ernst Kaltenbruimer. once head of tho secret polire, seemed to enjoy Jackson s biting remarks. Even ho grinned widely when Jackson described his defense as that of a "security chief who was of the Imnression that the policing functions of his gestapn SS were somewhat on the order of directing traffic." rranzvon l'aen, the wily old diplomat schemer, shook his head sadlv when Jackson said he was one of the men who made Hitler believe In the "In decision and timidity of demo cratic people." Papen had been chnneellor before Hitler took power. He listened Intently without earphones. Julius Stretcher, the anti semltlc publisher, naid little at tention. Arthur Sevee-In-uart. Hitler's ruler in Holland and earlier In Austria, appeared to doie several times. Most defendants appeared to enjoy Jackson's remarks about the fortunes In art treasures which Gnering looted. The former rclchmarshall just shook his head as if he were a man amazed. Beardless Men To Face Court Beardless males will have to take to the hills to escape a drubbing Saturday when the first kangaroo court will be in session. The court, which has been established for tho purpose of rounding up the males who lack that "certain touch," will be held Saturday afternoon on the courthouse lawn. The "whlskerlno." started July 22, is one of the means by which the pioneer flavor is being In jected Into Klamath county In preparation for tho 100th anni versary celebration of the open ing of tho southern route into Oregon In 1840. A 20-man vigilante group, com plete with bloodhounds, will herd the beard violators before the Hon. Judge Colt (U.S. Balentlnc). Court procedure nnd the meting out of the punishment will be under the direction of the Eagles, while the vigilantes will be mem bers of the Elks lodge. The kangaroo court will be held every Saturday until the Centennial, August 22, 23 and 24, Tho businessmen and by standers of Main street will bo checked Saturday and no excuses will be accepted from non-wear-crs of whiskers. Congressmen Pay Increase And Pension WASHINGTON, July 26 (T) Congress members, who long have grumbled that they can't live (in tho style expected of them) on $10,000 a year, wrap ped up a $5000 raise today in a measure overhauling legislative machinery. Action Isn't final yet, but leaders say it Is certain. Still in disputo is tho form of the pay rise. The senate voted a straight salary boost to $15,000. Tho house decided on $12,500 salary, plus $250(1 expense money. The measure also would let tho members qualify for a gov ernment pension. Tho general policy Involved got a stump of approval from ihc housn lust night when It adopted by a 229 to 01 standing (non-record) vote tho so-called congressional reorganization bill. Carrying precedent-breaking chnnges in tho lawmaking pro cedure, a similar measure passed the senate by a 49 to 10 voto Juno 11.

WASHINGTON, July 28 (T) Less than 24 hours after getting a new start In life, OPA today hiked June 30 prices on numer ous items and lifted controls from many others. All of the agency's actions had been planned weeks ago but had been held up by the 25 day price control coma which began with the lapse of OPA authority on July 1. On tap were a long list of other orders governing prices on hundreds of items. But none were In the works yet for the restoration of price ceilings on several major items in the family budget including meat, dairy products, eggs, poultry, grains, tobacco and pe troleum. Aug. 20th Deadline ' These were exempted from price ceilings, at least until Au gust 20, by the OPA revival law which President Truman "reluctantly" signed late yester day. .The price boosts authorized today are tcmiKirary and may jcanllnaa on rao(S, Col.

Clouds blank eted the entire area and cold rains fell throughout the county, while tho remainder of Oregon was still gripped in a heat wave. The Klamath County Forest Protective association reported that enough rain had fallen on Parker mountain to thoroughly soak the ground to the depth of a half Inch. Hain was also re ported at Chase mountain and early morning skies at Yhinax and Sycnn lookouts were threat ening. The temperature remained at 02 during Friday morning hours but dropped to 58 as it started lo rain shortly after noon. Al though residents shivered after having experienced tempera tures in the HO s several days ago, the rain was welcomed through out the. forests as a check on fires. Meanwhile other Oregonians faced their ninth day of the sum mer's first general heat wave. Temperatures wore slightly cool er but not enough to give people relief from the heat spell. Eu gene reported weather similar to Klamath's, as they registered Ob degrees at 12:30 with light showers. Ontario was the hottest spot in Oregon yesterday as the ther mometer shot up to 104. Arling ton recorded 102, Mcdford 99, Eugene 95, and Salem 92.

In addition to the pay rise, key sections of the legislation in clude: Pensions both versions pro vide that members 02 or older may retire on a pension after six years service. The amount of the pension would be deter mined by the amount of contri butions made by tho legislator to tho civil service retirement fund. He would have to pay to tho fund at least five per cent of his salnry for five years. Help for members the sen ate measure provides an $8000-a-ycar administrative assistant for each member nnd also sets up a stenographic pool upon which tho legislators can draw. The house eliminated both these sections. Lobbyists Congressional lob byists would bo required to reg ister their names, employer and expenses, so the legislators could keep a belter check on them.

Lake Search Still In Vain Continuing search from boat, plane and horseback has failed to locate the body of Keith Gor don, 58, missing in the Upper Klamath lake since Sunday when he and John A. Henry dis appeared while on a boat trip from Geary canal to Crystal creek and Malone springs. Henry's body was found near the Coon point cinder, pit late Tuesday afternoon. Yesterday George Barlhman and Tom Lawrence took boat from tho point where Henry's body was found " around the shoreline-of Howard bay. ui Shoalwater bay to where Gor don's boat was located Monday, then spent several hours cover ing the water of the bays without finding a trace of the missing man. By computing the drift of the boat and kapok life cushion found in Shoalwater bay, known locations and times of the two men before they dropped from sight Sunday, searchers have reasoned that they went into the water about four miles from Rocky point lodge and a mile or less off Coon point about 1 p. m. Sunday. The boat and one cushion were found 23 hours la ter in Shoalwater bay, three and a half miles from where it is as sumed tho boat overturned. Henry's body and the other life cushion were found In the shallow water at Coon point, and the assumption is that he had used the cushion in coming to ward the shore. So the area under scrutiny is roughly a triangle from Coon point, Shoalwater bay and the place where the boat probably turned over, and is an area of water of variable depth, mud flats and tulc patches. Fires Blamed On Lightning Lightning was blamed today for the destruction by fire of a house at Bly, and damage that put the main pump of the Horse fly irrigation district at Bonanza out of commission. The dwelling on the old Jesse Parker ranch two miles west of Bly, occupied by the Bill Tucker family, burned to the ground at about midnight. Mr. and Mrs. Tucker and their two children, 4 and 11 years of flge, barely escaped with their lives, according to James Drlscoll of Klamath Falls, who received word of tho fire this morning. Drlscoll said the Tuckers were asleep at the time the blaze broke out, presumably after a lightning strike. The milk house and other outbuildings burned. The house was reduced to ashes, and tha Tuckers lost their household fur nishings as well as personal effects. Fire broke out In a large motor In the pumphousc of the Horsefly district in Bonanza Wednesday night, in the midst of an electric storm. The coils burned out and the pumping capacity of tho plant has been cut to one-fourth of normal, district officials arc badly worried about supplying water to crops, and some 371 acres of potatoes, especially, are in jeopardy. It may take seven days to get the pumps In opera tion again, and there Is talk of Installing an auxiliary pump temporarily on Buck crock., , The Bonanza plant pumps water out of Lost river. tys m $ rv.

Jewish-Arabic Pact Reported PARIS, July 26 fJP) An authority said today that Jew ish and Arab representatives, in direct negotiation, have formulated a provisional pro gram for settlement of the Pal estine problem calling for crea tion of two independent states, Jewish and Arabic. The authority, who said he had read a draft of the plan, said it called for both states to be declared permanently neu tral under the United Nations. The plan, the informant add ed . has been submitted to Lon don and Washington for study. The plan contains the follow ing stipulations, the informant said: 1. Mandated territory, both cast and west of the River Jor dan, (present boundary between Palestine and Trans-Jordan) shall be declared permanently neutral territory under the United Nations. 2 Two Independent states, Judca (Jewish) and Abdullah (Arabic) shall be established in that territory, with the bound aries to be determined by agree ment between the Jews and Arabs; 3. Christian holy places shall be jointly administered, on an equal basis, by representatives of the Roman Catholic, Protes tant, and Greek Orthodox churches. 4. In event of failure to reach agreement on any boundary point, the issue will be arbi trated by a United Nations com mittor rnmnosed of three or five nations, none of which shall have political, economic or strategic interests In the ter ritory. . Wheeler May Run On Third Ticket WASHINGTON, July 26 (if) Senator Wheeler (U-tvioni.i saio today he is being urged to run as an Independent in the Novem ber Montana senatorial election a course that might put Presi dent Truman on a political spot. While Wheeler told a reporter he has made no decision, ne said Influential rcoublicans as well as democrats have asked him to make a three-man race of the contest. Any decision by the Montanan to reenter the fight for the sen ate seat he has held 24 years would force Truman either to extend again or withdraw tho helping hand he gave Wheeler lnhe July 16 primary. (Tlrphon - w - " . - M explodes In Bikini lagoon In Nip Battleship In Last Throes ABOARD THE USS APPA LACHIAN OFF BIKINI, July 26 (P) The 32.720-ton Japanese battleship Nagato developed an increasing list today, pointing her toward a probable watery grave in Bikini lagoon to which yesterday's submarine atomic blast already has consigned the battleship Arkansas and aircraft carrier Saratoga. Late this afternoon, hours after Vice Adm. W. H. P. Blan- dy ; had pronounced the aged but heavy-hulled battlewagon in bad shape, her pagoaa-ime su perstructure showed an even more precarious slant. Admiral Blandy's report on the Nagato was made at a dress conference in which he said the underwater blast probably would have killed all men on the decks of the target vessels had crews risked their lives in the man-made catastrophe. "It is probable that personnel on deck would have been gon ers, if not immediately, at least later on," he said in assessment of the explosion which thus far has shown these results: . Immediately sank the 26,100 ton Arkansas; caused the 33,-000-ton "Sara" to go down near ly eight hours later; so grievous ly wounded the Nagato that she hfoan a steadv list; caused the destroyer Hughes to start set tling in the water, so uiv " was beached today by a tug; sank lighter craft including some submarines and spread so much radioactivity that 24 hours later 36 square miles are contaminated. Don Whitehead, of the Asso ciated Press, after a flight over the lagoon today, said the bomb had proved it has tremendous destructive force possibly fatal to ships within a half-mile radius and considerable power beyond that deadly circle. Solons Oppose Tax Increases WASHINGTON, July 26 W Congressional leaders ruled out any tax increases today with a firmness that indicated President Truman may have to look else where for the anti-inflaUon weapons he said must be fash ioned if revived price controls fail. , Chairman George (D-Ga.) of the senate finance committee told a reporter there will be no increase in taxes, despite Mr. Truman's assertion that if the OPA revival bill proves inef fective he will have to call con gress back to strengthen price control laws and act on liscal measures. "I do not think the suggestion that taxes can be raised in this period is a realistic evaluation of our present position and I think the president and the treasury must know that," the Georgia senator declared bluntly. As for the further tightening of price controls, Senator Wherry of Nebraska, the republican whip, said he thinks that if Mr. Truman calls the lawmakers back after they have been home to talk to their constituents "they will come back and wipe the OPA off the map." Even Senator Pepper (D-Fla.), who advocated revival of the pre July 1 OPA with all Its powers, said there is "not the slightest chance of getting increased taxes." 1 in p a a b- i. a - YVEAintK NtVYi J0I7 J, IMS Mas.

Civilian Atom Control Voted WASHINGTON, July 26 (IP) Congress today completed action on legislation putting control of atomic energy in a five-man civil ian commission. The house, then the senate, adopted a conference report dovetailing senate and house measures on the subject. The bill now goes to President Truman. It provides for the civilian commission to control develop ment of atomic energy and gives the government, through the commission, a virtual monopoly on inventions in the field. The compromise contains most of the major provisions of the original McMahon bill passed by the senate. The compromise was vj-orked out by a senate-house conference committee. ' - Rep. Thomas Martin (R-Iowa) assailed the compromise as an "appeasement," and told the house it was setting the stage for "the first Munich of World War HI." .3 .-iJisi.--i.r-.-ii 'Pickin'est' Worker Picks Ton Of Cherries In 1 Day HOOD RIVER, Ore., July 26 (P) The pickin'est migrant worker in the west maybe in the world drew his paycheck today and headed for California and another harvest.- Henry Wooten, one-time Ken tuckian, heard the other day that nobody ever picked a ton of cherries in a day. So he picked a ton of cherries. It took him 12 hours to strip 2168 pounds off the trees in the Webster orchards. It gave him the record. It also gave him $75.84. "He's about the best man we've ever had," said Roy Web ster with magnificent under statement. "In six consecutive days last week he earned an average of $59 a day at 3!i cents a pound." Pickers generally average $8 to $14 a day. Last year Wooten averaged 1000 pounds of cherries a day for 13 consecutive days, Web ster said. '"When he starts up the lad der, -he's picking with both hands. When he comes down he's picking with both hands. He doesn't care whether the Government Plans Probe Of Slayings WASHINGTON.

Julv 28 IIP A band of armed white men waylaid a white farmer and four negroes on a secluded northeast Georgia road late yesterday. Sheriff E. S. Gordon said today, and while holding the white man at gun point shot the negroes to death. One of the negroes, Roger Malcolm, 27, the sheriff said, had just been released from jail un- oer ouu oona on charges of stabbing his employer. Barnev Hester, a farmer. une sheriff Identified the other negroes as Malcolm's wife, and George Dorsey and his wife. The negroes, riding in an auto mobile with Loy Harrison, a farmer, were en route from Mon. roe to Harrison's farm In adjoin ing ijconee county when they were waylaid at a bridge over the Apalache river, the sheriff said. No Identification Harrison, at a coroner's in quest last night, the sheriff said, testified that he could not Iden tify any member of the band which waylaid them. The jury returned a verdict of death at the hands of unknown parties. The slayings, the sheriff said, occurred about eight miles east of Monroe, the county seat of Walton county, which is about 40 miles northeast of Atlanta. Here is the story of the slay ings as told by the sheriff after questioning Harrison: Dorsey and his wife worked on Harrison's farm in Oconee county. Malcolm had worked for Hester, and Harrison, after Mal colm's release from jail, had gone to Monroe to get him and his wife and take them back to jobs on the Harrison farm. Harrison, driving the car with the negroes in it, approached m 'Wooden bridge over the 100-foot- - (CAt(aa4 an rage CaL 1) . Heirens May Plead Insane CHICAGO, July 26 (fP) In dictments were returned today charging William Heirens with murder in the kidnap-slaying of Suzanne Degnan and the "lip stick killing" of Frances Brown, but his attorneys indicated the youth's defense might be based on a plea of insanity. The two indictments con tained a total of nine counts, charging the 17-year-old univer sity student with strangling Suzanne with his hands and with a length of picture wire last January 7, and with shoot ing and stabbing ex-Wave Frances Brown in her apart ment on December 10, 1945. The Indictments were returned before Chief Justice Harold . G. Ward In criminal court. Yesterday, the grand Jury voted true bills naming Heirens as the killer in both bizarre cases. The six-year-old Suzanne was taken from her home the night of January 7. her body butchered and distributed in sewer catch basins in the neigh borhood. Miss Brown's nude body was draped over her bath tub, and a message reading "For heaven's sake catch me before I kill more. I cannot control myself," was left In lipstick; on the wall. Today one of Heirens' attor neys said the youth would un dergo a sanity test after he is arraigned on the two charges next week. trees are good or bad and he'll bet $100 at the drop of a pit that he can outpick any man, anywhere, on any row of trees. Wooten, 32, has been follow ing the fruit harvests from Cali fornia to Canada for about 10 years. He says he once studied for the ministry, and fellow pickers say he's a college grad uate. Wooten is no one-crop spe cialist. He sets records wher ever he goes. Last year at Chelan, Wash., he picked 360 boxes of apples in one day, setting a new mark. The county agent's office here said it heard he held the record for picking peaches in California. - No one doubts it, least of all Webster. "The man's a bundle of nerv ous energy," he said. "He never makes a false motion and tha only time he ever pauses is to light a four-inch cigarette. Between seasons he works, too pounding out - itoriei for the pulp magazines; But he's not a record-holder there. Sometimes, he says, once in about 60 tries, he makes a sale.
