Truman was quoted as saying Thursday that action by Women May Capacities in EOS ANGELES (LP)—mitted to serve as delegate bers of parish vestries and ties in the Protestant Episcopal further study by the 58th Angeles Diocese Thursday. Proponents of the proposed amendment of canon law argue that in 29 of the 86 protesta Episcopal dioceses in the United States women serve as convened delegates and from 10 to 20 percent of delegates in those dioceses are women. Opponents argued that women might eventually gain control of diocesan conventions through the activity and interest in parish fairs. The convention made one cession to women members of the church. It amended a rule requiring 15 or more male adults to establish a mission of the church to eliminate the word "male." Also, adults of both sexes will be considered in the matter elevating a mission to a parish.

"Don't be afraid" was the emphasis point of his talk. People tend to be timid when pruning, he said, and few prune severely enough. He demonstrated cutting back a rose bush and fruit tree, and explained that January is the time for most pruning except on the more delicate plants such as fuchsias, hydrangeas, bougainvillea and poinsettias. Mrs. Ernest Walthers, president, reported that sufficient funds had been raised at the public card party to purchase a platform to be used for speakers and fashion shows.

Bar Yettes met in the home of their leader, Mrs. Dorothy Wiley and made plans for a Mother's Tea. Truman Still Insults Solons ST. LOUIS (UP)—Former President Harry S. Truman was quoted as saying Thursday that action by Senate and House committees to curb President Eisenhower's government reorganization powers "was a squirrel-headed thing to do." The ex-president made the observation while taking his customary early-morning stroll at Independence, Mo., Edward F. Woods of the Post-Dispatch reported. In approving a bill extending for two years the president's power to reorganize the executive agencies, the government operations committees in the two branches of Congress Tuesday made it easier for Congress to reject any of those plans. Truman said Dean Acheson, who served under him as secretary of state, had done as much as former President Herbert Hoover in drafting recommendations for more efficient government "But those pin heads never gave him any credit for it," Woods reported. Truman expressed hope he will be able to listen to President Eisenhower's state of the union message next Monday. The Post-Dispatch story said Truman added with a grin: BE SURE TO SEE THE BEAUTIFUL 1953 Dual-Streak Pont A GENERAL MOTORS MASTERPIECE THE GREATEST PONTIAC EVENT Bigger and Better in Every Way and NO INCREASE IN PRICE!

The complaint charged that while Bonnell was ill, hospitalized and not in full possession of his mental faculties, the three defendants obtained his signature to transfer to Mrs. Lake all of his property, valued at $80,000. State Director Of Correction Blasts Jails SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 29 (UP) California's county jail system, narcotics control and probation program all got an official rap on the knuckles Thursday from the state director of correction. "Our jails are lousy. They stink. If you don't believe it, smell them yourself," Richard A. McGee told a luncheon meeting of the Bay County Peace Officers association in San Quentin prison. McGee, discussing the penal situation throughout the state, cited the "amazing" increase of narcotics offenders being sent to California prisons. He called for the "aggressive and intelligent cooperation of the state and federal officers" in cutting off a rising drug menace. Calling for a better probation setup, McGee told the peace officials. In some instances probation officers have 356 cases to check every month. Somebody is kidding the public. That's not probation, its impossible." But McGee saved his sharpest criticism for the penal system. "That's not my fault," he said. "It's the fault of the people who won't build jails, provide personnel, or do the necessary things to help. I think we should get out and shout about it." McGee said better officers are needed as well as better jails. "Someday the state will have to set a standard for law enforcement as it does for education — better support, better pay scales and training programs for officers."

Price Controls Opposed on Fruits And Vegetables LOS ANGELES (P)—The United Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Association went on record Thursday against price controls for its industry. A resolution adopted at the final session of the organization's 49th annual convention declared: "Experience has demonstrated that fresh fruit and vegetable prices cannot be controlled effectively or enforced equitably and no justification now exists for them. "Mandatory price supports for fresh fruits and vegetables, financed by public funds, are neither practical nor in the public interest." Other resolutions declared: "Legislative steps should be taken for temporary admission of alien labor for the cultivation and harvesting of seasonal crops." "Excise taxes, ton-mile levies and licenses imposed by certain states and cities create barriers in the path of interstate commerce and are inconsistent with the spirit of national unity and business cooperation." Another recommended that non-religious holidays be celebrated on Mondays because mid-week holidays hurt business and interfere with delivery of perishable goods. Resolutions urged that funds be provided to the U.S. Department of Agriculture for an expanded program of production and marketing research. They said conflicting federal state and local rate regulations on truck transport of perishable farm produce are detrimental to producers, distributors and customers, and should be reconciled to help inter-state trade.
