Newspaper Page TextHERALD AND ftEWS. KLAMATH FALLS. OREGON SUNDAY. MAY 10, 1959 Labor Takes Defensive As Ike Administration In Anti-Inflation Drive - By WILLIAM J. EATON United Press International WASHINGTON tUPD- Organ. lied labor is being forced on the """defensive by the administration's anti-Inflation campaign ana con gress' drive to control union cor ruption. - . One result Is that the United Steelworkers Union has kept strike talk to a minimum and has gone to unusual lengths as in a series of full-page newspaper ads to present arguments seeking to jus tify its traditional demand for "more!" wages from steel pro ducers in this month's negotia tions. The union contends that wage Increases would contribute to general prosperity. ' Another result Is that AFL-CIO leaders have been so busy trying to fend off what they consider punitive labor reform legislation that unions' efforts to get Con gress to raise the minimum wage and to increase jobless benefits have suffered. - And out In the country, violence scarred strikes in the coal fields of Eastern Kentucky and a North Carolina textile town have reflect ed what many experts consider to be a stiffening in labor-management relations. Labor sources admit that the theme pounded home by President Eisenhower the dangers of infla tionhas convinced many rank and file union members that wage increases should be shunned. The AFL-CIO has struck back by contending that inflation is a Shony issue and charging that big usiness rigs prices regardless of labor costs. Members of Congress report, however, . that labor's message Isn't reflected very much in the mail they receive from the folks back home. The anti-inflation nsvchoiotrv this year presents a problem to me steelworkers Union almost as great as auto workers chief Wal ter Reuther faced in 1958. Reu- Uier had to negotiate new con tracts wnn me big auto com panies at a time when the reces sion was having a big impact. Beyond the steel talks, labor ob servers are predicting trouble ahead .in negotiations covering GRANGE NEWS ' EASTSIDE NEW PINE CHEEK Nine new i . members received the obligation at the regular meeting of the East side Grange on Saturday evening, because of Illness. Those receiving the obligation wore Mr. and Mrs. Olin Aldridge . ana aaugnter, Kamryn; Mr. and Mrs. J. A. Farnswortli, Albort C. Nix, Dave and Helen Noble and Donald Farls. Garland Cundiff, chairman of the recent field day activities, ex pressed some disappointment that only two of the five dealers sched uled to demonstrate farm equip ment, appeared. He also said that he had contacted some of the deal ers who had not come and they said they would like to display some naying equipment at a simi lar event at some future date. Lilly Noble, home ec chairman, pro tern, reported on the club meet ing on last Thursday afternoon when 20 adults and five children were present. Hostesses were Ms. Maude But ler, Mrs. Elsie Cundiff, Mrs. Flor ence Butler and Mrs. Shirley Law- son. Eight ladies from Davis Creek were invited guests for the occa sion. Members worked on fancy work, discussed the Mothers Day dinner and program, which will be held on Sunday, May 10, at 1 p.m. PST or as near as possible to that time. Everyone is to attend the church ' of their choice and bring a potluck dinner afterwards to the grange hall. Prizes will be given for the oldest and youngest mother and for the mother who has the most children present. The public is cor dially invited. All mothers will re ceive a corsage, Mrs. Noble said. Jack llinton, chairman of the rcstroom committee, said he was investigating the nossbility of get ting a loan from the Idaho Grange . Life Insurance Company. However, he first wants to make a blue print of the entiro project. Irvin Faris, chairman of the civ ic improvement committee, called for volunteer tractor help to finish the work in putting the town park site in .condition for leveling and planting, as this was not finished during the Field Day dcomonstta- lion because of Inclement weather A cleanup day project at I h e cemetery was discussed and final action on the best possible dale was tabled until the next regular meeting of the grange on May 16. Lecturer Virginia Hlnton an nounced that on the next meeting night she would have a special Memorial Day program following the meeting. Tho program will be in honor of all former grange mem bers who have died in the last two years. Alice Allen, grango secretary, presented a gold-starred scroll ci tation she had received for I h e Eastside Grange in recognition that all of the secretary's and treasur er's reports for the first quarter had been promptly made. Roth the secretary and the treasurer were commended (or their work. It was suggested that the scroll be framed and hung on the wall near the secretary's desk so that any additional stars won might be placed tipoq It. Refreshments were served fol lowing the meeting. Former residents and grange members. Mr. and Mrs. James Smith, who live on a ranch, near Prairie City, Oregon, were present to greet old friends and visit over the weekend. ' railroad workers and longshore men. Rail management has proposed 15-cent an hour wage cuts to three major unions. It also is campaign ing against alleged "featherbed ding" by operating employes. Con tracts run out Nov. 1. Both Harry Bridges' West Coast dockmen's union and the East and Gulf Coast International Long shoremen's Association face rough bargaining sessions in late sum mer. Longshore jobs are in the bal ance. The Industry wants to in troduce labor- saving equipment and techniques Such as loading goods in huge containers that would slash payrolls in every ma jor port. The AFL-CIO suffered a jolt when the Senate approved even a watered-down "bill of rights" for union members. President George Mcany and other lederation offi cials are now reconsidering their support tor any retorm bill on grounds that the Senate-approved measure might put unions in a trail-jacket. Even more threatening from la bor's viewpoint is the prospect that, tho House may follow the President s advice and vote fur ther restrictions on picketing and boycotts. May top AFL-CIO officials, how ever, say the labor movement can not afford to withdraw its support from a union reform bill at this stage without great provocation. While the big federation with held comment on the Senate bill. the United Mine Workers came out against "every word, every line and every paragraph" of the measure. John L. Lewis' union said it would give too much pow er to the federal government to "rule or ruin" labor organizations. The man at whom most of the legislation is especially directed James R. Hoffa of the teamsters cussed out the Senate-approved bill and its ban on "hot cargo" clauses in labor contracts. These clauses permit union members to refuse to handle nonunion goods. The teamsters traditionally have used this device to quarantine nonunion firms until they sign up. Hoffa, who withdrew his union under fire from the International Transport Workers Federation last week to avoid near-certain ouster on corruption charges, is in a stalemate with court-appointed monitors for his union. The teamsters hope the U.S. Appeals Court here will hand down a ruling that would prevent the monitors from enforcing their clean-up directives against Hoffa and his top aides. If it docs, labor observers believe that the lastov crnmental check on Hoffa 's tre mendous ambitions will have been removed. scout; news PACK MEETING TULELAKE Around 60 attended the pack mcetinc of the Tulelake Cub Scouts on Monday night.

Entertainer Bob Hope At Career Crossroads; Retirement Possible By VERNON SCOTT UPI Hollywood Correspondent HOLLYWOOD (UPI) Bob Hope is at the crossroads of his laughter-filled career. He knows it, and he s not laugning. The next few months will spell out retirement or continued titu- ation of the nation's funny-bone for the rapid-fire comedian Everything depends on his health. In any case, the old Bob Hope the one who tirelessly per formed in movies, television, per sonal appearances and benefits simultaneously has disappear cd forever. The 56-year-old comedian, re laxing in the plush comfort of his patio, surveyed his seven - acre estate thoughtfully and mused aloud that retirement for Bob Hone also would mean the end of a small empire and unemploy ment for scores, of empoyees, "More than 80 people are de pendent on me and my ability to perform," Bob said. "I think about their futures as well as my own. "They include writers, techni cians, press agents, directors. domestic help, agents, secretaries and a flock of others. "But I'm not being idealistic. If I don't get better and soon I'll retire damned fast and use my energy to get well. I'm the only person who can really help myself. Felled by exhaustion and blood clot in his left eye while entertaining American troops Europe last December, Bob still is a sick man. He suffers fre quent dizzy spells, and twice col lapsed during recent television re hearsals. 'This is not a temporary slow down for me, he said. I plan to keep taking things easy when I get my health back. This eye will take one or two years to clear up. and I've got to improve my general health. I m not a aemi-invalid. I want to make that clear. But when I told my doctors I wanted to keep working they said, 'your corpus cles don't know you're getting laughs.' If that clot had hit my heart or my brain instead of my eye, 1 can t tell what would have happened." " Hope admitted his physicians are continuing to make examin ations add that he is takine heavy medication. Medicine alone won t do the job." Bob told me. I run down to Palm Snrines every week. I lie around like a lizard and once in a while play nine holes of golf, riding around Stocks Suffer Fast Recovery NEW YORK (UPI) - Stocks. suuerea a nig tumble and swift recovery in the past week on the most active trading since Aiarcn 20. Prices fell sharply on Thursday. The industrials lost 8.75 points that day, the widest decline since Nov. 24. They came back 5.72 points on Friday and closed the week at 621.36 off 3.70 points from the previous week. Railroad shares lost 3.82 points to 163.85 in their average and the b5 stocks in the three Dow-Jones averages lost 1.76 points to 212.20. Utilities alone of the major groups were anie to rise. They closed at 91.60 in the average, a rise of .16 point. Sales for the week totaled 13.993.800 shares, helped by two sessions of more than 4.000,000 shares each. The daily average rose to 3,798,760 shares. Ill the previous week sales totaled 17,775,705 shares with the daily average 3,5do,141 shares. ine inursday decline was in line with usual procedure as the street anticipated, erroneously, further credit tightening. The break was accelerated by riling in the electronics and other recently strong glamor is sues. This drop came after the lock exchange announced cancel lation of stop orders in Thiokol Chemical, maker of rocket fuel. Thiokol lost 7-M. that day after sing 7-ii the previous day. Thiokol featured the market in turnover for the week with total sales of 549,400 shares. It netted 13-4 points on the week. This issue along with other electronics and missile issues met support on Friday. Most of them closed the week with wide gains running to 25-V4 points in Motor ola. Maytag, reflecting a higher dividend and stork split rose 10-Vd points. Philadelphia It Read ing ran up 16 points. Martin Co. rose 9-'j. Zenith lost 9 points. Astock split lifted California pack ing several points. The feature of the week came Friday when the automobile hares got into action on a new- high since mid-1957 in auto sales and a new high for the year in auto output for the week. Ford made the best showing and gained more than ( points. American motors rose a point. Steels met better demand on Friday but the group lost ground on the weeks. Oils were feature less. Aircraft generally moved WANT TO LEARN TO DRIVE? Phone TU 4-7690 in a cart between shots. The truth is I need even more rest than I've been getting. My eye is Detler, out tne trouble is vas cular, and that's a long haul." A look at Bob's schedule for the next few months is evidence of his enforced slowdown. He has just finished taping one more TV show, and that's it until he is able to get back into fuller ac tivity. He was scheduled to go to New York next week in connec tion with the opening there of his latest flim, "Alias Jesse James," but that was called off four days ago on orders of his doctors. This started rumors he had suf- fered a "setback" but Bob said this was not so. He explained "The doctor said I'm still doing too much and not following the scneauie ne laid out. He told me I shouldn't go back into another can of worms. It's a little . too much for me the trip to New York and I have to cool down again. The doctor is afraid all the confusion at the airport, the Perry Como show, the interviews and so on, would knock me out "The doctor said, 'if you don't cut this out I'm going to hire a psychiatrist for both of us. In August I plan to take the kids for a vacation in Canada. Maybe I'll spend a couple of weeks at Pebble Beach in June. But no work," he said. One good thing about this sit- uation is I'm seeing more of my family. The first lew days I suf fered from the jitters sitting around doing nothing. Fortunat ely, I've always been able to turn myself off and go to sleep any where, anytime. The drugs have helped keep me calm, too. I try to grab eight or nine hours sleep at night and a nap m the afternoons. But my blood pressure still jumps when I get excited. 'What a different pace from my old routine! Nobody moved as fast as 1 did. My physical problems began a few years back when I was doing morning and evening radio programs, a weekly television show, movies and personal ap pearances. : "An audience is like , dope. Once you're used to it applause and excitement you have to have it again. . "I took on all t,hese projects back in 1952 and that's when the dizziness started. It' was all be cause I'm a big ham. "It was ridiculous. I used bad judgment. The folly was 1 couldn't keep the money, and 1 was fighting myself on all me diums. During that period I did some of my lousiest TV shows." Sharp Drop; During Week hicher Drug shares were prominent among the gainers. Bristol Myers rose nearly 6 points. Du Pont scored a rise of nearly 5 points on tne week. u. s. steel lost and American Telephone fell 7-vi points. AVCO was in second place among the actives, It had sales of 330,100 shares and gained H4 points. General Instrument in third place gained lft-ta points on 303,300 shares. Admiral, in fourth place, had turnover of 255.100 shares netted 6-V points. Sperry Rand, fifth, rose point on 244,500 shares. Next came American Motors. 241,400 shares, ex - dividend, up 1; Standard Coil. 207,500 shares. up 2-Vi; Ford, 206.700 shares, ex- dividend, up 6-V.; Martin Co., 180.600 shares, up: 9-'i: RCA. 177.500 shares, up 5-: and Gen eral Motors, 165,100 shares off H. Business news was good. Many corporations reported higher earn ings. Steel operations were sched uled at a record high. Construc tion rose after setting a record high in April. Gasoline inventories declined. Retail trade held its gain over a year ago. Electricity output moved higher and so did soft coal production. Wall Street experts said the market behaved well, meeting resistance around the 615 level in the Dow-Jones industrial average where they said it would. Court Receives Paving Request A small delegation from the Stewart-Lenox Addition petitioned tne county court Friday for pave ment on three neighborhood streets. The delegation of six persons sought paving on Cortcz, Butte and Fawn streets under a usual ar rangement where the county does tne work and then is repaid by property owners. The petitioners learned, however. that signatures presented did not represent owners of 70 per cent of the property involved, as re quired by law. They said they would be bark again, and the court said it would be pleased to comply when sulficient signatures are presented.
