San Francisco Wants To Keep Old "Cable Cars"

SAN FRANCISCO, CP) - San Francisco voters yesterday decid- ed on a new mayor and whethe~ to keep the hilly city's quaint cable cars-knoWn to visitors from the world over for more than 70 years.
 Superior judge Elmer E. Robin son was elected mayor to succeed retiring Mayor Roger D. Lapham. He defeated two other candidates: Rep. Franck Havenner, Democrat elected to Congress for times; and city supervisor Chester MacPhee.
 The cable car charter amend ment proposed that the public util- ment proposes that the public util- ities commission maintain and op- crate the system ''as a link with San Francisco'S historic past. The only organized opposition to the cars-which have developed strap-hanging art peculiar to San Francisco-hasb been voiced by the local real estate board, which com plains they're outdated. City au- thorities originally prepared junk ing the changing little cars as inef- ficient and outmoded. A "citizens" committee to save the cable cars organized a vigorous campaign and put the proposed amendment on the ballot.
 San Francisco voters approved S87, ,050,000 in city improvement bonds and overwhelmingly au- thorized the continued operation of the hill-climbing cable cars.
 Funds from the bond issues largest ever voted here-Will fi nance efforts to modernize the city's mass transportation system, provide downtown parking space, repair streets and increase the wa ter system.
 The voters decided to keep the city's antiquated cable cars run ming by better than a 2-1 margin. City administrators had proposed junking the 74-year old system in favor of modern buSseS.

business for two months, thou sands of workers will be laid off Who is going to compensate them , for loss of their jobs?
 Washington has asked that for eign countries which are to get American grain cease using grain for liquor making. But the British have a reasonable argument for continuing their distillery buSi ness. Whisky is one of their inn portant exports for which they can get American dollars to buy things they do need.
 Senator Saltonstall of Massachu- sets has raised a pertinent queS- tion. Instead of appealing to the people to observe an "eggless" day each why doesn't the government release the 580 million eggs ft bought up recently? Suppose they are/ powdered or frozen, they should be of some value. One of the main reasons for the meat less," "poultryless" and "eggless" day campaigns is to try to hold down prices when relief food ship ments to Europe are increased. For the government, at the same time, to buy and hoard some food sup plies to keep prices up doesn't make sense.

Much Of Salvaged Salmon Will Go On Market

SEATTLE, (P An estimated S2,250,000 worth of Alaska salmon from the sunken freighter Dia- mond Knot is expected to go to market in new cans.
 The salvage represents approx imately 60 per cent fo the l54,000 cases (48 cans each) in the holds of the ship which sank after a colli- sion in the Strait of Juan de Fuca last August. L. A. Peterson, sales manager for McGovern and Me Govern, the salmon brokers hand ling the recoverd fish, said that the suction hose salvage opera tions brough up about 100000 cases and that about 90,000 of them would be marketable after re-canning.
 He said the price quotation to wholesalers on the twice-caught, tWice-canned red salmon is $25 a case, with certain minor trade dis counts. He said the salvage includ- ed an estimated 2,500 cases of chum salmon, which are listed at S18.50 a case.
