VICTIMS of the Navy's economy program cutting down 50 per cent in recruiting personnel
re the Klamath area's two Navy recruiters, AD-I F. F. Browning, left and AOC Frank Roemer,
right. Here to replace them is QMC John DeWees, Healdsburg, Calif., a veteran of 13 years
in the service. He comes here with his wife and one daughter. Browning, here for the past
year, is to go to the Naval Air Station at Miramar, near San Diego. Chief Roemer, who says
he's got more friends here now than at his home in Silverton, goes aboard the Carrier USS
Bataan. Mrs. Roemer graduated from OTI in June.
Ticket Problem Tops
Convention Visit Woe
By MART JANE MERRYMAN
CHICAGO If there Is one thing
that raises the hair on the back of
a delegate's neck, it's this prob
lem of getting the home folks In
to the big show, more politely
known as the Democratic national
convention.
Oregon delegates sot worked up
In their second caucus over how
long a pledge is binding, whether
or not Mrs. Eleanor Roosevelt
would accept the nomination for
vice-president, whether they would
get a chance to second the nomina
tion of Sen. Kefauver, etc., but the
real fireworks came when that fate
ful word "tickets" was uttered.
It seems there
are 21 extra
tickets allotted to
Oregon's delega
tion, with 41 visit
ing Oregonians
here already and
more coming. The
general tenor of
the explosion
which followed

Playing the role of Solomon Is
Sill Sanborn, executive secretary of
the delegatij, and no one envies
him- His is the job of apportioning
the precious papers without which
prospective visitors are left sitting
in the stockyards. Coins are tossed,
bargains made, shopping expe
ditions split up so everyone finally
gets a crack at either a day or an
evening seat.
Bill mops his streaming brow,
takes a gulp of ice-water and utters

Peace Seen In
Ship Strike
' SAN FRANCISCO lit Negotia
tors voiced optimism Thursday as
they resumed peace talks aimed
at settling the 59-day-old AFL West
Coast sailors strike.
Shipowners and the Sailors Un
ion of the Pacific discussed every
thing from wage demands to knotty
maritime union rows at a mara
thon session Wednesday.
Harry Lundeberg, chief arbitor
for the sailors, said "it looks as
If we're getting someplace at last."
"We hope for a final settlement
soon," added J. Paul St. Sure,
president of the Pacific Maritime
Association.
Federal Conciliator Omar Hosk
lns, who has been tight-lipped,
cautiously commented there had
been "clarification" of some is
sues. The sailors struck May 26 for a
t per cent wage boost and other
benefits. Since then they have
raised wage demands to 11 per
cent and asked additional fringe
benefits. j
Shipowners offered a 2 per
cent boost and agreed to some
fringe requests. . ,
so essential for the man waiting
Helsinki have nothing on this for
timing.
One lucky holder this mornin;
was John L. Kerbow, USN,
of Klamath Falls who said he "has
a good Democrat for an officer'
and got special leave from his base
at juempnis, renn., to tram up w
Chicago for a look.
Left the Oregon meeting after
hearing the all aye vote on Alfred
Condrey's resolution to include in
the platform a modification of the
Taylor grazing act to admit the
small graier. to fight for my own
ticket
Might add that I didn't get very
far either. After walking up five
flights of stairs on this steaming
hot day, i banged on the Indicated
door. Finally a head appeared in
the transom, disappeared and
someone inside said yikes, it's a
woman. Then another voice: Wait
a minute Lady, we're lust cooling
off. After an appreciable pause, I
gained entrance to the press ticket
staff, all appropriately clad but ex
tremely hot and ruffled. Tickets
here, too, are non-existent.
Accepted garb for males at this
convention is rolled shirt-sleeves
and no tie, thanks to the steam
bath weather. Some die-hards cling
to those pint-size bow ties but if
the weatherman is right, they too
are doomed.
The women either have more
stamina or are luckier. At the
huge Democratic women's opening
dinner, no one gave an men to me
humidity. Women delegates and al
ternates admired pretty Mrs. Alben
Barkley as she laughingly sparred
with photographers, dug into half
a canteloupe, and managed to look
girlish and unruffled in white or
gandie embroidered in navy blue.
Next to her Mrs. Perle Mesta,
minister to Luxembourg, slashed
her inimitable warm smile and
managed to make all the 1,400
guests feel at home. She wore a
French import of grey taffeta with
a gold-spangled stole which failed
to hide her handsome shoulders.
On the other side was Mrs.
Eugenie Anderson, ambassador to
Denmark, in white nylon net
painted in varicolored designs.
Mrs. Anderson, trim, pretty and
43, struck a blow for America at
her press conference. She is Amer
ica's only woman ambassador and
was busily answering questions on
European politics when a lone male
reporter said timidly, Would you
please tell me what you have on
and where you got it?
Mrs. Anderson obliged with a
non - technical description and
added that, like all her other
clothes, she bought it in
Minneapolis.
