ANNUAL MEETING OF THE
FIRST CHURCH OF CHRIST.
SCIENTIST, BOSTON, MASS,
JUNE Z, I948

Boston, Mass, June 7-Declarinl
that democratic government is the
instrument through which an ire
sistible, spiritual force is being
channeled into the affairs of men
The Christian Science Board of Dl-
rectors today urged Christian
Scientists, in annual meeting, here
to work strongly and actively fol
the defense of free governments
throughout the world
Rightly conceived, the Directors
told the Annual Meeting Of The
Mother Church, The First Church
of Christ, Scientist, in Boston
Massachusetts, democratic govern
ment is something more than an
aggregation of legislative acts and
legalized rules of conduct
1T is the orderly embodiment OF
the moral character and spiritual
integrity of its citizens" the spokes-
men for the worldwide Christian
Science movement affirmed AS
such, they said, free government
rightly merits active defense of its
sacred purpose in addition to the
pious declarations of allegiance to
its outer form.
Thousands of Christian Scientists
from many parts of the world heard
the Directors issue a distinct chal-
lenge to the proud, boastful Coli
aths of today, as they go to and fro
in the earth Denying God, they are
denying their own life, for God is
the only life of man." they stated.
In free governments, now serious
ly endangered by the modern
Goliaths, the Directors commented,
there is a force that gathers its
strength from the same eternal
truth given by Christ Jesus in his
peerless Sermon on the Mount
it shall be seen. they
said. that no individual or nation
IN earth can withstand the power
and presence of God and His
Christ"

HUNTING AND FISHING
INCREASES IN REGION ONE
DURING THE YEAR I947

Recreational hunting and fishing
use of the National Forest lands
and waters during the open seasons
.of l947 increased over the high
levels reached during 1916 This use
was made in areas of easy access,
as well as in remote wilderness ter
ritOry, and reflects the great in
terest in and demand for the pro-
duction of fish and game on the
public forests of this Region
During the 1947 season, sport
fishing in the National Forests in
creased 80 per cent over 1916. This
is the greatest use ever recorded
Big game hunting efforts also in
creased but due to wet, cold hunt
ing weather and lack of the usual
heavy, early fall of snow, hunter
success was somewhat reduced. Due
to the high cost of out-of-state
license fees, the number of out-of-
state hunters was greatly reduced.
During the l947 fishing seasons
in the four states in the Region, a
conservative estimate of $4,000
fishermen spent many fine days on
the streams and lakes of the Region.
The l947 hunting seasons saw a
collective group of $4,000 big game
hunters and $1,000 small game
hunters for their fall sport on the
National Forests. The big game
hunters bagged total of 80 ante
lope; 1900 black bear; as grizzlies;
II 900 mule deer; 5000 white tail
ed deer; 10000 elk; 107 moose; So
mountain goats and mountain
sheep
This tremendous use and the
great crops of game from public
forests are really important as a
way of life to about half of all the
people who live in this country
A total of $4,000 people hunted |
and fished as a way of recreation.

Truman Infervenes
In Long-Lines Dispute
lover A. 7. &T. Protest

The Government has stepped into
the threatened strike of CIO long
lines telephone workers over the
protest of the American Telephone
& Telegraph Co.
President Truman late yesterday
issued an executive order creating a
special board of inquiry under the
Taft Hartley Act to investigate the
dispute between the workers and
phone company which he said
threatens to result in work stop
page imperiling national health and
safety"
Bartlett T. Miller, vice president
of A. T. g. T.'s long-lines depart
ment, Immediately issued a state
ment saying the company is wholly
at a loss to understand" the Presi-
dents order.
1.-THE company's opinion was not
sought" he said. THE employees
affected comprise less than 5 per
cent of the total employees in the
telephone communications industry
and we find it difficult to believe
that any emergency exists that i'm
perils the national health and
safety.
Neither the union nor the COM
pany had broken of negotiations
and the company expected to con-
tinue negotiations with the union

Meetings Fail TO Settle
Packing House Strike
BY the Assoeiotsd Press

CHICAGO, May 19.-Federal con-
ciliators kept trying today to effect
a settlement of the 63-day Nation
wide meat strike but packers and
striking CIO packing house workers
were silent on the progress of their
negotiations.
There were reports that the union
was ready to accept the original
company wage offer of 9 cents an
hour increase but it objected to pos
sible discharges. The union struck
March 16 in a demand for an in
crease of % cents an hour.
After last nights meetings by the
conciliators with both sides and in
joint sessions, representatives of the
major packers and union officials
refused to comment. Frank Walsh,
Federal mediator, said: There's
nothing further on the books for
tonight, but that doesn't mean we
won't have further meetings with
the packers and the union tomor-
row."
Attending the sessions yesterday
was Gov. Luther Youngdahl OF
Minnesota, who last week called
out the National Guard to reopen
the violence-ridden stockyards in
South st. Paul, Newport and Albert
Lea, MINI. He returned to the Twin
Cities late last night without COM
menting on the Chicago meetings,
but said he would make a statement
today.
The conciliators held sessions yes
terday with representatives of Ar
mour & Co., Cudahy Packing Co.
and Wilson & Co. A proposal by
Swift & Co. on Monday to end the
strike was rejected by the union.
Swift suggested the union accept
the 9-cent offer and order strikers
back to work, and let the grievance
procedure provided for in the union
contract determine whether strikers
who had not been rehired had been
justly discharged.
Ralph Helstein, union president,
rejected the discharge clause" as
serting the packers want to fire all
the officers of the union"

0Ieo Tax Repeal Bills
Fate Seen Ringing on
Senate Policy Group
By ChoImers IA. Roberts

The fate of the House approved
bill to repeal the Federal taxes on
oleomargarine today appears to be
up to the nine-man Senate Repub-
lican Policy Committee.
Two days of public hearings on
the bill were completed yesterday
by the Senate Finance Committee,
with every indication of committee
approval. Chairman Millikin said
the committee will meet in closed
session tomorrow and may begin
consideration of the bill.
The Senator would not say when
he expects a committee vote on
the bill. Questioning of witnesses
during the hearing, however, made
it clear to observers that a big
ma ajority of the 13-man committee
favors repeal.
Problem of Priority.
The real problem facing marga-
rine hackers is to get the bill to
the Senate floor before the ad-
journment stampede. Bills are
given priority by the majority
Policy Committee, three of whose
nine members are on the Finance
Committee as well.
Besides Senator Millikin Sena-
tors Taft of Ohio and Hawkes. of
New Jersey, both Policy Committee
members. are on the Finance Com
mittee an both have indicated ap-
proval of the repeal move. Sen
ator Taft, however, has told re-
porters he is not certain the
margarine bill can be put on the
Senates already crowded schedule
before adjournment, assuming Con-
gress quits for the two national
party conventions.
At yesterdays committee hearing,
l8 witnesses appeared most of them
opposing any modification Of the
present taxes and license fees.
One surprise witness, Minnesota
State Senator Ancher Nelson, told
the committee that he believes "the
butter people have lost this fight
on the tax"
One of the last witnesses was Leo
Peters, the Chicago inventor of the
plastic bag in which much mar
garine is now sold. The bag con-
tains color capsule so the color
can be mixed into the margarine
more easily.
Repeats 81 Sale Offer.
Mr.. Peters repeated the offer he
made before the House Agriculture
Committee last March: He would
sell his lucrative patent rights for
81, if only the margarine manufac-
turers would agree never again to
sell colored margarine. He said the
whole fight to repeal the taxes
sprang from his invention and the
competitive upset it caused among
margarine makers.
Strongest words came from Glen
M. Householder of Brattleboro, VT,
representing the Purebread Cattle
Association. He said repeal would
Cd bring IAN era of oleomargarine

ing an effect on the morale of the
American dairymen as did the drop

morale of people of the japanese
Empire" and CD leave American
agriculture in a weakened condl-
ton, and victorious America has

CoHonseed Corner
Charge Injected Into
Margarine Battle
By the Associated Press

The issue of speculation was In
jected today into the hot congress
sional battle over oleomargarine.
Representative August H. Andre
sen, Republican, of Minnesota sale
the Proctor & Gamble Co. made
profit of 1898, 400 in a two-way
corner Of cottonseed oil used IN the
butter substitute.
Mr.. Andersen, chairman of spe.
cial House committee investigating
commodity speculation, said he hae
information that the soap firm anc
Best Foods Corp. cornered the en-.
tire May market in the cotton by
product. The result, he said, was
price rise from 2975 cents a pouno
to 43 cents between April 7 ano
May IA.
Mr.. Andersen called Benjamin
Nelson, vice president of Best Foods
as a witness before the committee
today, but the hearing was post.
poned until tomorrow.
Floyd M. Barnes, vice president OF
Proctor & Gamble, testified yester-
day that his company bought Al
cars of cottonseed oil only because
supplies were getting very tight
due to a 81 per cent heavier demand
than last year.
He said the company later SOLD
10 carloads of refined oil at the
request of the New York Produce
Exchange. But Mr.. Barnes said his
firm made only about 100000 on the
deal.
A Washington trader, Dyke Cul-
lum, president of the National Com
modify Corp. said he believes an
unnamed group" has seized on the
recent House action in repeating
Federal oleo taxes to corner the
market 'in the expectation OF a
rise in margarine prices"
He said the squeeze" will cost
housewives at least 10 cents a pound
in higher prices for oleomargarine
Mr.. Cullum's name figured In a
Senate investigation into commodity
speculation last January. Senator
Elmer Thomas, Democrat, Of Okla
homa said Mr.. Cuilum had handled
his investments in cotton from time
to time"

.Eniwetok Atom Tests
Show Great Progress
In Developing Bomb
By the Assoeiossd Press

HONOLULU, May 10. The
United States has atomic weapons
vastly improved over the wartime
Hiroshima and Nagaski types.
Aside from this f1eeting peek un-
der secrecy's curtain, the details are
hidden.
This was the gist of a news con-
ference yesterday by top military
and scientific directors OF a Joint
task force on their return from
I"Operation Sandstone" on isolated,
well-guarded Eniwetok in the Mid
Pacific.
There they conducted the latest
series of atomic tests during the
last As days. Three weapons Of i'm
proved design were tested. There
was no undersea test, nor any
bombs dropped from the air.
Whether guided missiles were used
cannot, for security reasons, be an
swered.
Hull Says Bomb Worked.
Leaders of Task Force Z evaded
all questions attempting to pinpoint
the latest American strides IN
atomic weapons.
But 1t. Gen. John E. Hull, task
force commander, pointedly COM
mented: "We got our answers. We
liked the answers"
These answers" he said, belong
to the United States Government
and, naturally, are not for publica-
ton. It can be said, however, that
the bombs worked. We have proved
the weapon development work done
by the Los Alamos IN. Mex) scien-
tific laboratory during the past two
years."
Navy Capt. James S. Russell, dep
uty director Of the Atomic Energy
Commissions division Of military
application, pointed out that the
bombs exploded at Alanogordo, N.
Mex, Hiroshima and Nagasaki and
the two tested at Bikini In 1916
were wartime weapons-designed

he asked the soldier why he had
killed his pet. The court was told
an argument followed which
prompted the disorderly conduct

Substitute Judge Harry F. Ken

for such behavior. Johnson's at

Jail sentence. Johnson's bond pend
