Jack Is performing his endurance teat at the Sears Roe buck and Co. store at 8th and Klamath. Blue and shaking from his ex perience. Jack gulped great draughts of hot coffee as soon as he was able to straighten himself out. His clothes were frown to his body, stiff as cardboard and it took some time to limber them up. His only cover ing against the cold was a pair of coveralls and a light T shirt When asked If there was any dan ger in the feat other than frostbite. Jack replied that many times he had passed out while entombed, and could easily have frosen to death bad he not been Immediately pulled out and revived. The prospect of serious Injury, or even death does not seem to faxe Jack. He has been laring the fates since he was nine. At Uiat tender age. he allowed several friends to seal him in a barrel and toss It off the Aurora bridge In Seattle. Wash., into the water nearly 350 feel be low. He survived this hazard with little more than a few bruises, none serious enough to keep him from devoting his life to taking chances. In addition to his f reeling feat, which Jack says he does only oc casionally, he has worked as a stunt man in Hollywood and toured the country with various death-defying acts, the most recent of which was the "Death Drivers" automobile wrecking display seen a week or so ago in Klsmath Pal's. During the war. Jack as in tne submarine service. In the course of his service, he managed to win both the welterweight and middleweight wrestling championships of the Pa cific fleet.

Short Trips Move Yourself Save 4 STILES' BEACON SERVICE Phone 1304 1201 Cast Mala 1. Some time ago, officers of the engin eers Brotherhood demanded 27 changes In working rules. 2. Because the proposed changes were unjustified and in some cases would have created unsafe operating conditions and Interfered with the prompt handling of traffic contrary to the public interest. Souhera Pacific could not grant the demanrL 8. Finally, in keeping with provisions of the Railway Labor Act, a special Emergency Board was created by the late President Roosevelt, at the request of the Brotherhood, to settle the dispute. Such Boards are the highest tribunals, under the law, to act upon such matters. 4. The Board went into all phases of the controversy and submitted its recom mendations to the President, who made the report public. 6. Southern Pacific accepted the Board's recommendations in their entirety al though we did not agree by any means with the Board on all points. 6. But the engineers' Brotherhood re jected the report. The Brotherhood aub sequently placed 20 of the same 27 issues on a strike ballot. As a result of this ballot , the Brotherhood has now called a strike unless all of these 20 demands are granted Long Motor Trip Ends ST.

HERE ARE THE FACTS t ABOUT THIS THREAT TO YOU! The Railroad Engineers Brotherhood has called a strike against Southern Pacific (Pacific Lines), effective 6 p.m. July 21. By this action the Brotherhood ignores the recommendations of the highest body established by law to pass upon railroad labor disputes. Such a strike would work great hardship op the public served by our rail road. We think you should have the facts. Following is a brief review of what has happened: Southern Pacific Company Matthews Named Swedish Minister WASHINGTON, July i un-n. Freeman Matthews of Maryland was nominated today by President Tru man to be minister lo Sweden, Matthews, a foreign service offi cer, la now director of European af fairs for the slate department with the rank of career nilulsler. He acromiwiiled President Tru man to Potsdam for the "big three" meeting there and has long been consultant on Euroiean matters. Bonneville Shows ' $6 Million Profit PORTLAND, Ore.. July II V Earnings of the Uonnevllle admini stration were up to S9.35S.a30 last year the sum lo go to lite federal treasury. Administrator Paul J. Raver said sale of power from Grand Coulee and Uonnevllle dams totaled 13 1, nnim Values LIEdDMS 52S in full and before any of the other de mands on the strike ballot are considered. There are 481 additional demands. These, for the most part, are technical claims, generally for service not perform ed or for duplicate pay, and are merely "window dressing" or "padding." Sixty nine of these are made strike issues al though they are now before the National Railroad Adjustment Board and waiting decision. 7. The National Mediation Board took charge of the disputes and has been carry ing on mediation proceedings with the Brotherhood and the railroad company since June 9. These proceedings were still in progress when the strike call was announced. The strike threat comes at a time when any interruption of this railroad's services would be most harmful to farm ers and businessmen, especially shippers of perishable food products. Beyond the immediate effect upon the general welfare, however, the public is even more concerned with the answer to . this question: If the Brotherhood insists on ignoring the processes set up by the law to adjust railway labor disputes, what protection remains for the public against the de structive effects of railway strike at any time in the future.
