o o HERALD AND NEWS. Klamath Falls. O O FiClav. O Nov. fi. leJSfl Salem Man Named Chief Of Ag Group The annual Klamath Falls Stan dardization Conference concluded on Thursday afternoon with the election of Hugh Taylor. Oregon Department of Agriculture, chief of division of plant industry, as president for the coming year. Walter Chester of Sacramento, bureau of shipping point inspec tion for California, U.S. Depart ment of Agriculture, was named as secretary. He succeeds A. E (Gene) Strowbridge, California De partment of Agriculture, who is re tiring at the first of the year Strowbridge has served as secre tary for the group for the last 10 years. ANNUAL MEETINGS have been held, usually in Klamath Falls, since 1935, according to Strow bridge. More than 40 men, regulatory of ficers dealing with fruits and vege tables, represented the seven west em states at the two-day meeting at the Willard Hotel. Arrange merits were made by Ross Aubrey Oregon Department of Agriculture, in charge of the Klamath Falls office. The meetings are held for a com plete discussion of problems en countered by state and federal shipping supervisors and inspec tors. Nursery inspection and serv ices were discussed during Wednesday's sessions. Thursday's all-day meeting took tip the problems of standardization of regulations and inspections with in and between the states. It in cluded a discussion of the Cali fornia agricultural inspection sta tions at the state's borders as well as agricultural commissioner set up within the states. "THERE WERE no hot prob lems this year," Strowbridge said. "It was really a big public rela tions meeting and the sessions al ways help to solve a lot of prob lems which arise." This group does not make rules or recommendations, Strowbridge pointed out. Its duties deal with enforcement of regulations. An interesting point was made by some of the California inspec tors who have noted the break down at terminal markets of po tatoes prepackaged in pliofilm bags. Mold and decay were found in some cases, caused, they said, by lack of ventilation. The prob- ' lem does not occur with the use of burlap bags or crates, the in spectors said.

AP) A Coast Guard launch Thursday towed the ocean-going tug Columbia Queen back to the sea across the dan gerous SileU Bay bar. The 82-foot tug ran aground on a bar Oct. 24 and a few days later was pulled free over the bar and into the bay by 'a line from a tractor on the beach. Henry Sause Jr., president of Sause Brothers Towing Co. which owns the tug, said it will go to drydock at Astoria for repairs. Sause escaped with his life Sun day as two members of his party out sounding the bay for a route to take the tug to sea were lost. Pounding surf overturned their 12-foot boat. The victims were Ralph Hunt ef San Pedro, Columbia Queen skipper, and Mel Jorgenson, also of San Pedro, chief engineer. Only Jorgenson's body has been recovered.

Union Boss Pledges Aid To Railroads CHICAGO (AP) President George Mcany of the AFL-CIO has pledged full and complete sup port of the nation's railroad un ions in their fight with the car riers over featherbedding charges. "You are not in this battle alone." he told an estimated 3,000 cheering rail union leaders and rank-and-file workers at a rally Thursday niqht billed as labor's answer to the railroads' charges. The nation's railroads served no tice on their unions last Monday that they want to eliminate cer tain railroad jobs they consider unnecessary. The formal proposals, which will 'ie negotiated during pending con tract talks, followed a series of railroad newspaper advertise ments charging that the work agreements governing railroad work are antiquated and cost the carriers an unnecessary 500 mil lion dollars a year. The heads or other officers of the 21 rail unions attended the rally. Demonstrators paraded through the auditorium with pla cards that accused management of a "brainwashing campaign" against their workers. Meany said he sees a parallel between the railroad dispute and the steel strike, saying, "It was known for a long time in the steel dispute that a strike was coming." He accused the railroads of using a high-powered publicity campaign to discredit their work ers in advance of negotiations "and render impotent the trade union movement." "This is one battle in the over all war against American labor. There seems to be a determina tion by big business to break down the trade union movement. The fight against the railroad unions is, a fight against all American labor," he said. The rate of admissions to gener al hospitals in the United States has risen by almost 80 per cent in the last 20 years, the Health Information Foundation reports Bethel No. 61 Job's Daughters, will have choir practice from 4 to 5 p.m. Monday, November 9, at the Scottish Rite Temple.
