Union Organizers Ordered

Tall, slender Lindel Cole, a
40-year-old farmer, told the un

"We don't want any trouble.
We Just want you to leave town
and before noon. If you don't

Slip Covers
Save Furniture
Slip covers are becoming
ycur-around home furnishing
items instead of mere summer
specialties, comments Winnifred
K. union, home demonstration
agent for Klnmuth county. They
are especially important right
now. she adds, when furniture
is difficult to buy and many
families are setting up house
keeping with second-hand
pieces.
Slip covers can cover worn,
faded, or soiled upholstery. They
can serve temporarily in lieu of
upholstery on furniture bought
"in the muslin." They can
change the decorative plan of a
room at comparatively small
cost. They protet't permanent
furniture coverings from wear
and dust. They save the furni
ture from the sticky fingers and
playthings of children, and pro
tect the wood portion from
scratches.
Fabrics for slip covers today
arc better than they used to be
with controlled shrinkage, more
permanent colors, and artistic
designs. However, no matter
how closely woven the cloth
may be, some dust will sift
through. So Mrs. Gillcn cau
tions that the covers should be
removed occasionally and the
upholstery brushed.
Directions for measuring fur
niture for slip covers, for mak
ing slip covers, and for repair
ing inner-spring are available
free from Mrs. Cillen s office,
room 208, in the federal building
in Klamath Falls.

Death Will
Prove Point
NKW IBERIA, La., Jan. 14 IIP)
Lanky Willie Franci Is rubbing
elbow with death today but
he's "right Interested to find out
if I can die like the man I
thought I was,"
Francis, who once cheated the
electric chair when a mechanical
malfunction allowed him to
walk away from it alive, was
singularly cool when he learned
that the United States supreme
court had ruled him subject to
another trip to the chair.
"I always sort of wondered if
I was a brave man," the tall, co
coa-colored negro said in an in
terview here.
"Now I guess maybe I'm gon
na find out. And I'm gonna
find out the hard way, boss, so
there won t be no doubt in my
mind when I leave. A lot of
men never find out. A lot of
men die stiU wondering if they
was the men they thought they
was."
Told by hi attorney, Bertrand
S. Dc Blanc, that a motion will
be filed for another supreme
court hearing, Francis said sim
ply: "It's the same thing. The
same old thing. A man's got to
die some time and I reckon my
time has plumb done come."

Morse Gives
Eisenhower
Top Chance
WASHINGTON, Jan. 14 (IP)
Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower "has
the best chance of all the candi
dates on both sides" to occupy
the White House in 1048, in the
opinion of Sen. Wayne Morse,
Oregon republican.
Speaking in a radio forum
broadcast, Morse said also that
he believed "Mr. Truman is def
initely in the ring" for tile presi
dential nomination.
"He la slugging right now,
and he has the republicans on
the defensive."
The Oregon senator assailed
republican tax-reduction pro
posals as "one of the most atro
cious cases of public deception
in the past quarter of a century."
"They snouid ten me people
that now Is the time to save and
pay our debt or the dollar won't
be worth a quarter of what It. is
today," he said.
"If the republicans continue
their anti-labor policy and their
fiscal policie which will lead to
fiscal isolation, they will lose
both congress and the White
House in 1948 and they will
give us the worst era of labor
unrest in the history oi the coun
try." Morse sized up the 1948 presi
dential prospects in these words:
There are too many republi
can after the same job, they'll
wash each other out by 1948.
"People are more interested
in personalities than in party
labels, and in that connection
there is a great deal of interest
in Gen. Eisenhower."
