Boycott Hit By Reverend
PORTLAND (AP) - The Rev.
Willis Whalen says the Multno
mah County Labor Council hit a
"new low in boycotts" in placing
Central Catholic High School on
Us unfair list. .
The action taken Monday
night by the council, said the
school had refused to sign a con
tract with a union elected the
bargaining agent of four janitors.
"There is no dispute over wages
or working conditions," the Rev.
Mr, Whalen said. "The statement
'three out of four of our present
custodians still want to join the
Union is 'utterly false." 1
Council President Glenn Blake
laid he expected union members
to withdraw their children from
the parochial school, which has
more than 900 students.
Said Father Whalen, the school
principal: "When Mr. Blake ur
ges Central parents to withdraw
their children from school, he has
hit a new low in boycotts.
"I feel this action will be re
pudiated strongly by responsible
labor leadership and the public at
large.
Said Blake:
"After the election, two of -the
men were harassed until they left,
and now the others are being In
timidated.
"We have made an exhaustive
effort to reach an agreement
and have been more than fair."
Pickets may be placed around
the high school, Blake said.

WASHINGTON (UPI) - Mayor,
Nor i is Poulson of Los Angele
called Monday for a consume:
boycott of big cars to force tin
automobile industry to find a waj
to reduce the harmful elfects ol
exhaust gases.
Poulson told a news conterence
that exhaust fumes from three
million cars in Los Angeles were
the chief cause of the smog that
plagues the city.
Poulson was nere tor a conter
ence on health problems. He ac
cused the Kisenliower administra
tion of yielding to pressure from
the aulo industry and backing
away from a nationwide fight
against air pollution.
Poulson said he would carry on
his own anti-smog campaign by
using a Rambler instead of a
Cadillac in his official duties. He
said he had cancelled the city's,
order for a Cadillac in protest
against the auto industry.
the big auto makers, tne may
or declared, have spent only one
million dollars a year on research
aimed at curbing harmful exhaust
lumes although their sales total
more than 20 billion dollars.
"I recommend we get iiltle
cars, Poulson told reporters. II
car uses one third as much gas
there will be one third as much
exhaust fumes in the air."
"I despair of getting anything
done at the federal level, he said
after attending the conference
conducted by the Department of
Health, Education and Welfare.
Poulson said his speech asking
for action to limit air pollution
was applauded by other delegates
The mayor said a representative
from the American Cancer Soci
cty also pointed out the health
dangers from air pollution.

NAGS HEAD, N.C. (AP)
55th anniversary of powered flight
brought a prediction today that
the United States will send a pilot
ed aircraft into the fringes of
space within a year.
Sen. A. S. Mike Monroney (D-
Oklai linked the prediction with
praise for Orville and Wilbur
Wright, who made the first suc
cessful flight in a powered air
craft in 1803.
Monroney's speech was pre
pared for a luncheon marking the
anniversary of the event, which
look place at Kitty Hawk, near
here.
"With the same courage and
vision as the Wright brothers,'
Monroney said, "modern pioneers
will strike through the chains that
hold man to the earth s atmos
phere just as Orville and Wilbur
Wright broke the chains which
held us to the ground back in
1903."
Tracing the progress of aviation
since then, Monroney said: "This
year we will put a man into outer
space, some 100 miles above the
earth, in a man-piloted aircraft.
The X15 will be flying before the
next Wright Day is observed. . ."
The Air forces X15 space re
search plane is expected to start

DETROIT. Mich. (AP) De
roit's .Mayor Louis Miriani fumed
londay over Los Angeles Mayor
Vorris Poulson's assertion that
jig car cxnausts are the main
cause 01 smug.
Describing big cars as the No. 1
air pollution problem in Los An
qeles, Poulso.i announced in Wash
inglon Monday he had canceled
his Cadillac order and would buy
saia ne nupea uiners wouia iouow
suit.
The whole thing is silly, to say
the least," the Detroit mayor
wired Poulson Monday. "Suggest-
boycott of larger cars is almost
as fantastic as if Detroit and the
Middle West boycotted movies and
television snows out of Los An
geles to preserve the public eyesight."
The motor city s mayor conced
ed, however, that autos unques
tionably contribute to smog.
Miriam s chief air pollution In
spector, Morton Sterling, suggest
ed what Los Angeles needed, in
effect, was-niore new automobiles.
"The age and the condition of
the car is just as important in the
smog problem as the size of the
car. A'.i older car will spew great
er amounts of pollutants into the
atmosphere than will newer cars,"
he said.
All the big-car makers have De
troit area plants. American Mo
tors moved all automotive opera
tions to Kenosha and Milwaukee,
Wis., although it still maintains

by taxi at about $2.50 a day paid
by her school board.

The jaunty young star is on a
21-day furlough and dreads re
turning to Fort Sill, Okla., fori
the holidays.
"I guess L should be looking for
ward to it," he grinned. "The
colonel promised to have break
fast with the troops in the mess
hall Christmas morning. How're
you gonna top that?" .
Russ says the Army is working
overtime to make a man of him,
and at the same time convince
the 24-year-old actor that he's no
different from other GIs,
"When I took basic training an
officer called me into his office
and lectured me for 20 minutes
on how I would be treated just
like the other soldiers," Russ re
lated. "He said I was no differ
ent from anyone else.
But I made the mistake of
asking him if he was going to call
in the other 499 guys for the same
lecture. I ended up scrubbing
floors for a week."
Russ is paid $7S a month, com
pared to $1000 a week he earned
at MGM while starring in "Tom
Thumb." His furlough has been
spent touring 11 cities plugging
the picture . without pay.
You wouldn t believe some of
the things that have happened to
me in the eight months I've been
in the Army," Russ said. "I'm in
the entertainment section of spe
cial services. But I don't do any
entertaining except to hand out
programs for a little theater
group, and once I gave out cer
tificates for children who had
read 12 or more books during the
summer.
'Oh, yeah. I did so to Wichita
Falls, Texas, to crown the fire
prevention queen. And the Army
gave me a dollar to cover gaso
line expenses.
During a training session we
were forced to charge up a big
hill firing empty rifles at a sign
reading 'I am the enemy.' We
were yelling 'bang bang' instead
of shooting bullets. -
It struck me so funny I sat
down and laughed 'till I cried- ;
"Then a big red-faced sergeant
rusnea up to me boiling mad. He
said, 'that's the trouble with you
actors. You all live in a world of
make-believe." Then I really

possibility he will make Pfc.
