Fair, Mild
Over Nation
By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
It was a little cool in some east
ern and western areas today, but
generally fair, mild weather pre
vailed in most other sections of
the country.
Except for showers in parts of
central New England and south
ern Florida, skies were clear in
most areas east of the Mississippi
River. Cooler air spread from
England to the Carolinas and
across the Appalachians into Ten
nessee and the southern Ohio Val
ley.
There was a warming trend in
the Gulf states and Great Lakes
region. Biggest temperature ad
vances vere in the northern Great
Lakes. Readings were in the 60s
compared to the 40s yesterday
morning.
Cool air moved south and east
ward from the northern Rockies
during the night and set off stormv
weather in the plains and in parts
of the upper Mississippi alley.
Rain fell from central Texas
northward into Minnesota. Hail
and strong winds hit sections of
Kansas and Nebraska. Funnel
clouds were reported in northeast
crn South Dakota in heavy rain
storms.
Mostly fair and warmer weather
was reported from the Rockies to
the Pacific Coast.
Thunderstorms roared through
the Southeast yesterday and last
night with some hail and heavy
rains in areas from southeastern
Alabama through southern Geor
gia and most of Florida.

New Edition
WASHINGTON W - Another
addition to the growing collection
of Lincoln literature, edited by a
man who know the subject well,
was published Wednesday.
The editor: Abraham Lincoln.
Under the title, "The Illinois
Political Campaign of 18.58." the
Library of Congress is issuing a
facsimile of the campaign scrap
book kept by Lincoln. It is the
only book he ever edited for pub
lication.
The scraphook contains news
paper accounts, both pro-Lincoln
and anti-Lincoln, of his unsuccess
ful 1838 Senate race against Sen.
Stephen Douglas.
It contains verbatim accounts of
the immortal Lincoln-Douglas de
bates, discussions of the issues
which were to grip the nation in
Civil War tnree years later.
Lincoln wrote introductions to
the newspaper accounts and ed-
itod his own extemporaneous re-
marks with corrections of gram-
niatical and typographical errors
inserting word changes and clari
fying phrases.

gets right to the business at hand
with whatever announcements he
lias to make and saves the chat
ting for later.
But on one occasion the sena
ior, beaming proudly, led off the
proceedings by passing around the
latest picture of his grandchildren.
"I just thought you might like
to see them," he said.
Deadly serious in discussing im
porting state problems, Knowland
responded with blustery good hu
mor when asked to comment on
recent claims by some political
columnists that his campaign was
a trouble."
"This is a free country and
they're entitled to their opinion,"
he laughed. "But I'm sure you
don't expect me to agree with
them."
At one session the talk got
around to flying. Knowland said
he was reminded of the time he
went for a ride in a jet fighter.
"Something went wrong with
the communications system." the
senator said. "The pilot couldn't
hear me and I thought he was
asking if I'd had enough and was
ready to land.
"1 was starting to turn a little
green so I gave him a vigorous
nod yes. That was when I found
out he had asked if I wanted more
because we went into the darn
dest series of dives and barrel
rolls I'll never forget."
Another time a reporter noted
that Know-land's wife, Helen, and
their two daughters have been
campaigning on his behalf by at
tending teas and luncheons around
California.
Does this mean the Knowland
family has adopted the Kennedy
approach?" the newsmen asked
referring to the much publicized
tea-circuit tour Sen. John F. Ken
nedy iD-Massi and his large fam
ily made when he was running
for the Senate.
"Not at all." answered Know
land. "We couldn't possibly do it
on the same scale. There aren't
nearly as many Know-lands as
there are Kennedys."

agreement with lumber firms in

working agreement is extended to
June 1, 1959. according to H. A.

The agreement has been worked

Terms of the agreement are:

parties agree to meet at a mu

made the recommendation stated,
"Our recommendation is made
only after considerable thought,

past 18 months. Included in our

Depressed Area Bill Men
Look To House For Action
WASHINGTON .n Supporters
looked to the House Wednesday
for action on a bill to aid chron
ically depre?d areas which the
Senate passed by a bipartisan 46
36 vote.
The Senate passed a similar bill
in the closing days of the 1956
session, too late for House con
sideration at that time.
Republican Sen. Dworshak of
Idaho was the only Pacific North
west senator voting against the
bill Tuesday.
Democrats Church of Idaho,
Magnuson and Jackson of Wash
ington and Morse and Ncuberger
of Oregon voted in favor.
The House Banking Committee
already has held extended hear

but has scheduled other measures

the onion crop will be larger, lu
weekly report of the U.S. Depart -
ment of Agriculture said Wednes
day
Y ields per acre for potatoes will
be smaller this year, and the
harvest may be a tenth smaller
than 1957, the report said.
It continued:
The late spring potato producing
states planted a larger acreage
than last year, but due to smaller
yields the originally estimated
harvest of 29 million sacks will be
3 per cent smaller.
The smaller yield is due to late
plantings, low temperatures, and
too much rain. -
Potato growers in the early
summer producing states also
upped their acreage this year. but.
as of May 1, growing conditions
in many areas were below stand
ard. Late spring onions will have a
fourth larger harvest this year
than last. Acreage of early sum
mer onions is also slightly higher
this year.

on the one side with a continuous
increase in the cost-of-living, ac
companied by a decline in take
home pay, and on the other side
with less demand and lower prices
for the products we produce, which
have resulted in a great amount of
unemployment for our members.
"Viewing present conditions
realistically it must be stated
the kind of market strength we
have been so hopefully anticipating.
"It is now our considered opin
ion that there is nothing to be
gained by pursuing negotiations
any further at this time and that
to do so, with all its accompany
ing effects, might only contribute
to the unstable conditions of the
industry."
The committee stated that it felt
the two most important things to
do ribht now in the interest of the
general welfare were: ill Keep
as many of their people working
dustry the opportunity to concen
trate on meeting the prevailing
competitive market conditions
Concluding its statement, the
committee said. "While we are
confident that improved economic
conditions lie ahead, the road is
paved with many uncertainties at
the moment and we don't profess
to be able to anticipate them nor
assess their effects at this time
"When the lumber market
regains its strength, we will ex
pect the industry to meet with the
union for the purpose of increas
ing wages in the same spirit of
understanding that the union nor
makes this recommendation.
Spence D-Ky of the committee
has said his group may report a
bill.
Twenty-nine Democrats and 1
Republicans joined forces as the
Senate passed the bill Tuesday
over opposition from 12 Democrats
and 24 Repuolicans.
The bill would make available
375 million dollar in federal loans
and grants to communities which
have lost major industries or for
other reasons have had long-stand
ing unemployment problems. Both
cities and rural areas would be
aided in rehabilitating themselves
The Eisenhower administration
sought to limit the measure to 50
million dollars of loan funds.
Sponsors of the Senate bill es-!

areas and 300 rural counties would
qualify for the loans, grants and
technical assistance authorized in
the bill

Pilot Tells Experience
Of Plunge In 'Dead' Jet
CHINA LAKE. Calii. - Navy
Cmdr. Selden N. May, 36, dis
closed today how he plunged 40,
000 feet in a "dead" F8U-1 Cru
sader jet, guiding a load of Side
winder missiles to an explosive
crash just after he bailed out of
the fleet's newest and fastest
lighter.
Cmdr. May said he nursed the
powerless aircraft down over the
northern edge of the Mojave Des
ert in a desperate effort to re
start a "flamed-out" engine. He
said he realized his chances of
re-flaming the disabled Crusader
were remote, but he wanted
if he failed to put the deadly
Sidewinders into a clear area.
"I wanted to save this particu
lar Crusader 'Baby.' " the guided
missile test pilot frem Compton.
Calif., said. "It's still a rare bird
and we needed it for our research
here at the naval ordnance test
station. But I also didn't want to
hit anything."
May. a veteran of 16 years with
service in World War II and the
Korean hostilities, said he dropped
in 10 minutes from 49.000 feet
about 40 miles south of China Lake
to 9.000 feet on the morning
of May 9. He said the jet's en
gine "just suddenly quit" as he
soared at mach 1.05, well beyond
the speed of sound.
"I tried about eight air starts
on the way down, maneuvering
for the station and an altitude
where I knew it was safe to get
out," May said. "I determined in
my mind where I had to 'abort'
or eject . . . because this is a
'hot' plane and something still had
to be done about those Sidewind
ers. Cameras, radio, radar and oth
er telemetering devices were "on"
the plummeting Crusader as a
result of checking its aerial mis
sile' work.
Yreka-SF Air
Route Nixed
SAN FRANCISCO UP) Wit
nesses for Pacific Airlines testi
fied at a Civil Aeronautics Board
hearing Tuesday that resumption
of service at Yreka would not be
economically feasible.
i. K. Mitchell, executive vice
president of the airline, told
Thomas L. Wrenn. assistant chief
of CAB hearings examiners from
Washington, that experience had
shown that PAL operations at
Y reka had lost money in the past
because of an insufficient amount
of traffic.
The CAB called the one-day
hearing to investigate restarting
service at Ft. Bragg and Y'reka,
suspended by PAL last July.
At Tuesday's hearing a resolu
tion by state Sen. Randolph Col
lier iR-Yreka) that called for re
instatement of PAL in Y'reka was
put into the record.
PAL also asked that its service
be allowed to continue at Ukiah
and Red Bluff to augment an al
ready permanent stop at Eureka
and petitioned for additional ser
vice from Eureka to Portland
Mitchell testified that Eureka was
a strong traffic-producing center
and needed direct service to Port
land.
United Air Lines, which has sus
pended service to Eureka, "takes
no position" in the matter, accord
and declined to send a represen
tative to the hearing.
Eureka witnesses. G. Kelton
Steele, president of the Eureka
Chamber of Ce.nmerce. and K. T.
Robinson. Eureka businessman,
also backed the airline's appeal
for northern service to Portland.

said. "At 9.000 feet I called the
