Poor Mike Just Can't Win When It Comes To Money OAKLAND, Calif. Wl When bur glars took $8,500 from Mike tihean's home last week -the 66-year-old tavern owner figured things had gone just about far enough. Remembering the $3,500 he lost the same way in 1944 and the S3, 000 burglars got in 1948, Mike ran an ad in the newspapers. From now on, he declared, he was going to be more careful with his money. Burglars could stay away. The next day he got a phone call from Los Angeles. I'm an old friend named Turner, the man said. You remember me. Saw where you lost all that money. Want to help you out. Cot a fool proof system for beating the horses. Just send me some money, to M. Turner, Los Angeles. Mike sent $200. The next day an other call, another $100. Then $200 more, then $300. Yesterday Mike got another call: "Send me more money, only this ABANDONED WASHINGTON HI Oregon Pa cific and Eastern Railway Friday was authorized by the Interstate Commerce Commission to abandon a four-mile line between Dlsston and Culp Creek Station in Lane County, Oregon.

Mike went to police. They're looking for M. Turner. And Mike has made a new reso lution: He's going to be more careful with his money. Starting right now.

By MICHAEL ROONEY DUN LAOGHAIRE, Ireland (AV- It was all peaceful in front of Jim Downey's pub on Upper Georges Street Saturday yet somehow it wasn t the same. The world's longest strike offi cially ended. Missinjr and missed, .too were the pickets who have paraded In front of the saloon, for nearly 15 years. Thev were inside at the bar knocking back a few. Among the sentimental Irish in this little hamlet outside Dublin' the truce touched deeply ad more than one regular customer wondered aloud what "Old Jim" Downey, the late owner, would have thought. The settlement of the dispute- not of money but of principle was reached between Pat Neville, who bought the pub when Downey died, and the National .Union of Vlnters, Grocers and Allied Trades Assistants Union. The strike began in March. 1939, when "Old Jim" fired a union bar tender. The union called out all the other bartenders and -set up a picket line. This only made "Old Jim" more stubborn. ... He hired pretty non-union bar maids instead and business seemed to prosper. "Old Jim" and the union settled down for a long selge. Over the days, months and years the pickets carrying placards paced the sidewalk in front of the saloon through World War II and into the atomic age. They became a tradition a vir tual landmark in Dun Laoghaire. Thousands of tourists went out of their way to get a look. "Old Jim" bore no bitterness. And the pickets paid by the union held no hard feelings toward, him personally. Come a holiday or any duly festive occasion "Old Jim" al ways invited the strikers in for a drink. But good trade -unionists Gas Merger Draws OK From Group BOISE,. Idaho W) A proposed merger of Northwest Cities Gas Co. and Cascade Natural Gas Corp. of Delaware received the approval of the Idaho Public Utilities com mission Friday. Cascade would be the surviving firm. Before becoming effective Jan. 1, the merged will also have to receive the blessing of the Oregon Public Utilities Commission, the Federal Power Commission and the Washington Public Service Commission. : - that they were, the pickets always refused a pint of beer even as they marched outside carrying their placards protesting "Old Jim" was unfair to organized labor. Val Murphy, who had picketed the place since the strike began, was. the first to offer condolences Jim", died last May at the age of 19. . Jim's widow carried on for a while standing just as firm as her husband. ... . As she explained: "The bar maids make better than union wages and besides the strike does business no harm at all. Many's the person comes here to have a look at our famous pickets and stays for a drink." The new owner, Neville, finally made peace with the union on for mally taking over the saloon Fri day night. Business was sun dhsk. There was singing and drinking to mark the end of the strike. And the guests were the pickets themselves this time inside the saloon.
