For decades, the' New York

with reason and sometimes not,
Several weeks ,.ago Mayor

with the Dunsmuir Chapter ot the
American Field Service. This
group introduced themselves as
Gisela's aunts and uncles for the
year and told her of the work In
arranging for foreign students to
come to ininsmuir, -
Gisela and her family are com'
paratlve newcomers to West Ger
many. '
"We are, how you say, refu-
gees," Gisela explained in telling
new party headquarters.
From now on, said Wagner, it s
strictly tho New York County
Democratic Committee, not Tarn-!

look and new atmosphere for the
party in Manhattan."
But decree or no decree, there
is still the Society of Tammany,
which dates back 175 years to

triotic and fraterhal grouai-some,
Historians say to protect jne in
terests of Irish Immigrants, who
were banned from the organiza
tion. Later, Tammany bosses
were forced to relent and admit
them. '
As early as 1806 Tammany
chiefs were associated with cor-
ruption. But in 1836 Martin Van
Buren. grand sachem of Tarn
many, was elected president of
the United states, ana Tammany's
prestige was never higher.
In 1868,' along came the notor
ious William M. (Boss) Tweed, un
der whose leadership Tammany
acquired the "tiger" appellation
and set a record for corruption.
Under Tweed, the city took a $200-
million beating until reformers
moved In. Tweed died in jail,
It took a long time for Tam
many leaders to regroup their
forces, but they did. Out of the
political rubble rose Charles F.
Murphy, under whose aegis In
the first quarter of the 20th cen
tury rose such Democratic party
greats as the late Uov. Altred
Smith and the ' late U.S. Sen
Robert F. Wagner, the mayor's
father. '
In 1945, Tammany turned out a
heavy vote for William O'Dwyer
In his successful bid for mayor.
Once In office, O'Dwyer fought for
control of Tammany but lost,
In 1949 De Sapio won control of
the organization and hung on to
it until his ouster this month.
In this century, Tammany joint
ly occupied headquarters with the1
county democratic committee om
14th Street and 17th Street,
In 1943, however, the committee
moved to 43rd street, formally
marking the physical severance
between the two groups. But the
name never left home.
Now the committee's head
quarters are on 48th street. Kri
day's move was sudden. Party
records were taken along, but not
a lot of the old furniture and only
one member of the old staff.
The new quarters are smaller and
less expensive.

Union Opinion Varies
On Agency Shop Ruling
WASHINGTON (UPl) - Union
leaders today said the National
Labor Relations Board's agency
shop ruling was "hopeful," but
others called It a "shocking dem
onstration of bias."
The NLRB, in a far-reaching
decision, ruled Friday that right-
to-work laws do not necessarily
ban what is known as the agency
shop.
It said that the agency shop is
legal unless specifically outlawed
by state statutes.
A union shop, which is banned
in right to work laws, requires
a worker to join a labor union
from 30 to 60 days after he is
hired.' An agency shop requires
him lo pay the union an amount
equal to union fees and dues, al
though he does not have to join
the union.
The only dissenting vote in the
4-1 decision was cast by former
chairman Boyd Leedom. who said
the ruling virtually nullified state
right to work laws.
The ruling had to do only with
Indiana.
The National Right to - Work
Committee, which opposes the un
ion shop, argued that the ruling
would have no effect in the other1
19 states with right to work laws.
It said laws, court decisions
and legal opinions made H clear
that these states banned the agen
cy shop. However, it was not im
mediately known whether any of
the states had a specific law bar
ring the agency shop.
The organization called the rul
ing a "shocking demonstration of
bias in favor of union officials

forests are vital to the lumber:
industry, a timber managament
official said Friday in Portland.
Speaking to the Oregon Legis
lature's interim subcommittee on
natural resources, Walter H. Lund
said small, private holdings of
timber have vanished.
Lund is assistant regional for
ester and chief of the division of
timber management for the JJ.S.
Forest Service.
He said private lands had no
rejuvenation or restocking pro
grams many years ago, and this
puts pressure on state, United
States, and Bureau of Land Man
agement lands to provide enough
timber for today s .needs.
Lund also told the legislators
that insects and disease cause
more loss of timber each year
than do forest fires.
Sigurd J. Westrheim, director
of research for the Oregon Fish
Commission, told the committee
that the number of silver salmon
entering the Columbia River has
declined steadily since 1930.

FCC Chief Complains
Of News Program Lack
WASHINGTON (AP) Newtonl
Minow, chairman of the Fed
eral Communications Commission,
says he thinks radio-TV newscasts
perform an outstanding public1
service, but there aren't enough,
of them.
The FCC boss, who has jabbed
at the quality of television pro
gramming oiten in the past, also
complained there were not enough
full-time news directors on radio
and television stations.
In a speech before the annual
convention of the Radio Television!
News Directors Association Fri
day night, Minow protested a "vir
tual news blackout" on television
during the prime viewing hours
each night.
"For those of us living in the
Eastern Standard Time zone, at
least," he said, "there is no newsl
on television between 7:15 and 11
p.m. The world goes on during
prime evening time. But you
wouldn't know it if you were
watching television."
He suggested the news directors
consider "the possibilities ot a
full-scale news broadcast, some
pressure was applied to individual
workers for fund gifts, he said
Hunter emphasized, "It is not
the desire of the United Fund to
raise money through either social
or job pressure. We would rather
have the majority of individuals
wanting to give on a purely vol
untary basis." He said the "all
must participate" standard has
been removed from the qualifies
tions.
Now, United Fund says, firm
and executives classify as one
group for recognition and
employes as another. Dollar quo
tas have been set for each of
national averages from similar!
concerns, plus a past experience
factor drawn upon local experi
ences.
Recognition for the 100 pen
cent award" will now be based on
100 per cent of their goal.
"The wisdom of this decision,'
Hunter said, "is already being
evidenced. A total of 59 firms,
contributing $21,828 as of Friday,
have qualified for the awards. Un
der the old system, only 69 firms
qualified during the entire cam
paign. This year, we have 59 win
ners already, and the drive is Hot
yet 50 per cent complete.
United Fund s current cam
paign will be four weeks com
plete Monday: 14 days of the
drive will remain at that time.
The fund said they could not,
in any way, dictate company pol
icy regarding the manner of solici
tation, but they continue to urge
collections be made on a purely
voluntary basis.
Goal of United Fund this year
is $135,309; as of Friday's report
breakfast, 46.9 per cent of this
figure had been turned in.

"I am in favor of seeing uni

New Ties Accomplished
At Episcopal Convention
DETROIT (AP) Some new
ecumenical features the ties that
bind Christians together now
mark the Protestant Episcopal
Church.
They were fashioned at the
denomination's triennial general
convention, which . closed Friday
with a stirring appeal from its
bishops for the reunion of world
Christianity.
They said the challenge was one
that in faithfulness to God we
cannot evade."
In a 4,000-word pastoral letter,
the bishops urged Christians "lo
work and pray without ceasing un
til by God's grace and in his time
the divisions by which we dishonor
our one Lord are done away."
The message, in a sense, be
spoke the theme of the' two
week governing convention, which
crossed some new milestones
in bridging the chasms between
churches. '
It approved merger conversa
tions with four other denomina
tions, the United Presbyterians
Methodists; the United Church of
Christ, including Congregationa-
lists, and the Evangelical and Re.

By Virginia Dog Owners
FREDERICKSBURG, Va. (AP)
Anybody itching for a good buy
in a dog would be in hound heaven i
today as Fredericksburg renews
its version of the "flea market."
It's the annual dog mart, a tra
titional back-country swap session
begun by the Indians and the pale
face settlers long before George
Washington was born nearby. The
entertainment that's squeezed in
between the showing and selling
of dogs also echoes that of long
ago.
The dogs are still the reason
for it all. They are, on hand by
Ihe hundreds with their owners.
For once in his life, it's the lowly
mutt who knows a flea when he
sees it and knows what to do

The whole thing began in 1698
as a one-day break in warfare to
haggle over the price of man's
best friend. The Indians had lone
admired the tracking and hunting
aouities ot the dogs raised by the
settlers. The settlers were more
than glad lo part with a hound
or two for some nice furs and a
gold nugget.
From then until the Revolution
it was bullets against arrows ex
cept for one day each fall when
the peace pipe was lit and the
combatants sat down for some
fancy trading.
The Revolution brought an end
to the bargaining. But in 1927 the
local Isaac Walton League and

Not Opened
To Probers
By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
The Justice Department has
lost a round in its bid to have
the voter registration records'
of a southwest Alabama county,
opened to federal inspectors.
U.S. District Court Judge Dan
iel H. Thomas dismissed Friday '
a federal complaint against the
Board of Rregistrars of Wilcox
County. He gave no reason.
Thomas heard arguments on'
the motion June 13.
Gordon Madison, an assistant:
state attorney general, argued a
that time that no Negroes have
sought to register to vote in the
county in at least 50 years. He
contended that under these cir
cumstances the present board
could not have engaged in racial-discrimination.-
, ;
A Justice Department attorney,
Robert Owen, argued that Con-,
grcss had given the U.S. attorney.
general the right to examine reg-
istration records. The Civil Rights
Commission first sought to check
the Wilcox voter records to 1958. f
But the records were placed in
custody of the county grand jury
and have been passed on lo suc
ceeding juries.
Wilcox is an agricultural county ,
with a population of more than
18,000 about 12,000 of them ,
Negroes.
On other racial fronts:
The Southern Christian Leader
ship Conference announced plans.
to recruit a nonviolent army of
about 150 persons to go to any
Southern community to oppose
segregation.
Two Episcopal clergymen from.
Chicago posted bond and were re
leased from jail at Jackson, Miss.
They were among the 15 minis-t
ters arrested Sept. 13 -on breach'

SPOKANE (AP) - A widely
known publisher says news al
