MONDAY, AUGUST 16, 1954 HERALD AND NEWS, KLAMATH FALLS. OREGON PAGE THREE Showers Fall Over Big Area By THE ASSOCIATED, PRESS Showery weather prevailed over most of the northern half of the country Monday and some of it drifted down into the lower Mis sissippi Valley. The southern Rockies also had considerable pre cipitation. Minnesota and northern Iowa registered the heaviest rainfall, arizing, generally from a low pres sure area centered over eastern South Dakota. Spencer, Iowa, had 1.02 inches of rain in six hours; St. Cloud, Minn. 1.74 and Fargo, N.D., 1.06 in 24 hours. Across the nation to the South, Mobile, Ala., measured 1.31 inches in one locally heavy shower. In other parts of the wet area, rain was light, however. One hundred-plus heat returned to large areas of the country again Sunday and more was on the books for Monday. South -Dakota, Kansas and Missouri were the principal midsection hot spots. Tatoosh Island, Wash., on the north Pacific Coast, recorded 67, by way of contrast, while the east ern parts of Washington and Ore gon and western Montana .were In the 70s and high 60s. Canada Salmon Strike Ended m VANCOUVER, B. C. (P) The week-lone tleuD of British Colunv bill's salmon industry ended Sat urday when 600 striking tender- men overwhelmingly accepted an oner or a SI5 monthly wage to crease this year and S5 In 1955. The ballot, taken by members of the United Fishermen and Al lied Workers' Union (Ind.), was 88 per cent in favor of a "final' offer by the Fisheries Assn. of B.C., representing the operators. It Is understood that seniority proposals and a welfare plan made by the association were accepted by the union before Saturday's ballot. The Fisheries Assn. said ac ceptance of the wage offer would mean that fishing would, probably start Morday, in order to capi talize on the big Adams River, sockeye run now heading up the Fraser River. The strike had idled the pro vince's salmon industry from the outset, although it wasn't until Thursday that 4,000 cannery work ers were laid off after salmon sup plies had been exhausted.

CANCELLED TOKYO 11 Rest and recupera tion leaves in Japan for American servicemen stationed in Korea have been cancelled because U. S. Air Force planes normally used on the leaves have been shifted to carrying relief supplies to flood stricken Pakistan, the Army said Monday. SEATTLE Wl Fifty-two pa. sengers In a United Airlines main- liner spent 76 suspenseful minutes Sunday night as the big plane circled over the area south of Seat tle while preparations were made for an emergency landing at the Seattle-Tacoma International Air port. However, the plane finally put down safely at nearby McChord Air Force Base. , . Pilot H. ir. Peterson had n- dioed that his landing gear was not functioning, because its hy draulic fluid had been lost. Later, Peterson, said he got his landing gear down to make the landing through what he called a "free fall", unlatching the locking mechanism and letting it drop down. Wind pressure then pushed it back Into place. He did not get a light signal it was down, however, and used up his emergency supply of hydraulic fluid trying to lock it in place. During the 76 minutes, Peterson twice touched the craft's wheels down nn the Seattle-Tacoma run way attempting to find out if the landing would be a success. Me chanics waved him nil ootn times. and told him by radio tnai a saiety latch was not operating properly. The pilot said he then decided to land at McChord "bc-ause the field is better equipped with safety equipment." Line officials said the landing at McChord was made without a hitch. They described it as normal despite the precautions that had been taken. The airliner had flown west from Chicago and Denver. Oregon Catholic Meeting Held MT. ANGEL, Ore. (VP) Several thousand Roman Catholics from throughout Oregon came to the lit tle community of Crooked Finger near here Sunday to take part In a religious procession. The event commemorated the 100th anniversary of the pronounce ment of the Immaculate Concep tion of the Virgin Mary by the Catholic Church. Paper flags and thirty shrines lined the quarter-mile line of march which ended at the Church of the Holy Rosary. The Most Rev. Francis P. Leipzig, Baker, led the service, which opened when he placed & crown on a statue of Mary. CHICAGO W The chairmen of the two major political parties drew widely different appraisals of the Eisenhower administration today. Stephen A. Mitchell, chairman of the Democratic National Commit tee, discussed GOP farm policies, foreign policy and the 83rd Con gress at a meeting of the insurance section of' the American Bar Assn., now holdings i(s 77th annual meet ing Chicago. Mitchell, in his prepared ad dress, said America's farmers "are making four billion dollars a year less than they were In 1952," and added: "They have lost one dollar of In come out of every four. All the new Republican farm program offers is still lower prices and lower income.' Hall, in a similar prepared ad dress, said of the administration's farm program: j "The Eisenhower admlnistra-1 lion, with commendable courage ! and farsightedness, has obtained I an improved farm bill. This pro-j vides price supports for six basic i commodities between 822 and 00 i per cent of parity. Its aim is a ' Deuer balance in agricultural pro-: duction. And, any support level adjustments will be gradual in line with the President's recom mendations." Hall said the House GOP mem bers stood firm for the adminis tration's "sound program, but the Democrats fought us." Of the administration's foreign policy, Mitchell said: "The raw isolationism of the 1920s was no more deadly than is the sugar-coated isolationism of today whether It is served with a slogan by a smiling Eisenhower or bullied down our throats by a sneering McCarthy over the pros, trate body of Dulles." Hall said the administration, burdened with a rather grim lega cy when lt took office, "was im mediately presented with six high ly critical situations," which he listed as Korea, Guatemala, Iran, Suez, the European Defense Com munity and Indochina. "The outcome of five of these six tests can be termed a plus." Hall said. "To be candid, the sixth (Indochina) must be accounted something of a minus for reasons quite beyond control of this ad ministration. ... j Concerning economio conditions j under the administration, Mitchell told the group: "At any rate, you all know we're in a recession. You know produc tion and income are not where they were or where they ought to be. Secretary Weeks might be able to stimulate the economy by using next year's funds this year Just before election, but there will be a compensating loss of stimulus after election." Hall said: "For the first lime In the recent history of politics, we have wit nessed the curious spectacle of a party caught flat-footed by good I times. For that is exactly what happened to the gloom-and-doom division of the Democratic party which, only a few months ago, was crying 'Wolf!' "This wolf, of course, was at Uncle Sam's economic door and ready to move in. "We all know this fancied de pression never came off." Look For This Sign JiBipiPRinTs AT YOUR DEALER .... rC.
