Tie-in Sale Appear One restaurant operator said -attempts had been made to force wholesale produce merchants to buy certain plentiful items they did not want in order to get potatoes. One favorite "tie-in" sale was said to be a combination of potatoes and celery. Dealers have attributed the potatoes shortage, a sharp contrast to the oversupply of two years ago, to the withdrawal of cash crop supports by the Federal government, a reduction in acreage by potato growers and poor growing weather.

The U. S. Department of Agriculture predicted a month ago the shortage would be relieved' within a few weeks when new crops start moving from Florida, California, Alabama and Texas. Haddon lit.

WOodlawn 4-3855 AUTO BODY SPECIALISTS 4th Below Camden FENDER Asnury Park. May 16 (UP) A defeated candidate for president of the Women's State Republican club said today that "wealth" was responsible for her loss. Mrs.

Agnes Jones Clifford, of South Orange, would not amplify the remark. The former assemblywoman lost to Mrs. O. Blake Willcow of Knglewood, in a bitter election at the club's annual convention here Thursday. Mrs.

Willeox polled 261 votes to 225 for Mrs. Gifford, opposed by incumbent president Mrs. Webster K. Todd. The voting was accomplished with a machine at first and then, to speed it up, wtth paper ballots.

When Mrs. Willeox was pronounced the victor, Mrs. Gifford stood on a chair In convention hall and demanded to know the vote. Further questions brought out that Mrs. Gifford had won 178-162 on the machine, but had lost 99-47 on paper ballots.

She called those circumstances "very interesting." It was the first contested presidential election in the 22 -year-history of the club. Mrs. Willeox was named by the nominating committee and Mrs. Gifford was proposed from the door at the organization's March meeting. Governor Driscoll told 500 delegates to the convention: "We should mind our words anil guard our actions as we enter a lighting campaign to elect a Repub lean president.

You can have a fight ing team that is a clean team and which will be the victor." Driscoll acknowledged that in New Jersey a large percentage of people look upon themselves "instinctively" as Democrats. He called for a Republican organiza tion and program that will appeal to former party members who drifted to the opposition during the depression and last war. Register and Vole Campaign Drawn For New Jersey Newark, iMay 16 (UP) Leaders of 15 major statewide organizations prepared to launch a non partisan "Register and Vote" campaign today.

Bowen said his committee would hold a statewide meeting nexf month to organize a perma nent directors' council. Mean while, the leaders will seek ap proval by their organizations. State CIO President Carl Hoi- derman noted at Thursday night's meeting that 30 percent ot the adult population of New Jersey was not registered to vote, ao cording to a CIO poll.

Till Paint Co. ou ONir sro'f 204 Federal Street, Camden Hour I le J. 30 t. M. wmmm Philip Murray, president of the CIO United hteelworkers, said today there are no negotiations whatsoever" in sight with the steel operators.

Murray told newspapermen in Philadelphia there had been no word from the industry on new wage talks since -the union opened its sixth biennial con vention Tuesday. The convention may end today, after the adoption of routine resolutions and a speech by Wal ter P. Reuther, president of the CIO United Auto Workers. One resolution will insist that the union be given a union shop in basic steel plants a big stum bling block so lar in contract talks. Ready to Negotiate Murray indicated strongly that the steel union had no plans for again inviting the companies to the bargaining table.

Thus the next move is up to the industry or the government. But Murray said the union is always ready to negotiate, always has been and tnat he had called for resumption of talks in his opening address to the 3000 convention delegates. With the enthusiastic support of the convention, Murray has made it clear that any negotiations will have to be "on the basis of" the 26 cents an hour wage and fringe package proposed by the Wage Stabilization Board. That means the union demands the whole package, including the union shop Await Court Ruling Some informed sources thought there was little chance of resuming contract talks until after the Supreme C6urt hands down its decision on the legality of President Truman's seizure of the industry to avert a strike April 8. The court is expected to rule at least.

by June 2 its last decision day before summer recess and it may have a decision by May 26. During its meetings In Philadelphia the union has underscored its determination to strike immediately if the court voids the seizure. If the court rules for the government, the chances are good ihe industry will be ordered to pay the full WSB wage raise. The convention heard Senator Humphrey, on Thursday as he denounced the steelmakers and warned the union their dispute is part of a "grand strategy" by big industry to kill the economic controls program. Humphrey urged the union to use its "secret weapon" the right to vote to stand off industry's "power play" to "kill once and for all the liberal gains of the last 20 years." Pay Rise (Continued from Page One) men under actual fire in Korea.

House members refused to accept it because they had held no hearings on the subject. But Chairman Vinson, said he hoped his House armed services committee could consider combat pay before Congress adjourned and work out a "definite approach." Rep. James E. Van Zandt, a committee member, said he took that as a "commitment" that the committee would recommend action. Applies to Retired Men The 4 percent pay increase will go to members of the Army, Navy, Marines, Air Force, the Coast Guard and Geodetic Sur vey, the Public Health Service, officers of the Maritime Commission, cadets and midshipmen at the military and naval academies and to aviation cadets.

It also applies to retired military personnel. The 14 percent Increase In allowances will go to all active duty personnel entitled to such benefits. In recommending the bill to the House, Vinson and other key members of the armed services committee said they were urging the armed forces to permit the early release of reserve officers with three or more dependents and to go slow in calling more reservists in that class.

The Moorestown Church Council Thursday night called for the removal of three Garden State racetrack signs from New Jersey Turnpike on the approaches to the Fellowship interchange.

Say Girl I-oved It "The girls loved every minute of It," Dick Stern, a University of Miami junior, said. "The boys dashed around the halls and did a lot of yelling, but I don't think they intended to do much damage."

Also the resolution protested: "Obscene literature, especially tnat which is designed to mislead and debase the childhood and youth of our nation; radio and TV programs with borderline humor, liquor propaganda and juvenile programs that give undue emphasis to crime to spice them. "That we deplore the widespread traffic in narcotics among youth and adults alike. "We urge where necessary better and more laws be enacted to deal with these evils.

We also urge a program of education that will unmask these debasing evils and show them for what they really are. We urge the constituted local authorities to deal courageously with these matters."

Report of Warrant For Driver an Error The Courier-Post reported Thursday that Municipal Court Judge Dzick ordered a bench warrant issued lor Ralph Parkinson, Sussex avenue, Sewell, when he failed to appear in court to answer a traffic summons.

Nevertheless, the violations bureau sent the complaint to court. When the case was called and Parkinson was not in court, Judge Dzick ordered a bench warrant issued, not knowing the fine had been paid. The mistake was discovered by the traffic violations bureau when the complaint was referred back to the bureau for compliance with the court's order.

It's the only way to keep the baby deer alive. State Kish and Came Commissioner A. Heaton Underhill said he knows Dawn and her parents mean well, but the fawn is no ordinary pet. It needs special weaning, proper food and freedom to stay alive. The 10-year-old Bernardsville, N.

girl appealed to Gov. Alfred E. Driscoll for clemency for her week-old baby deer, found on a roadside by her father. Undor-hill said he would recommend that the fawn be turned over to a game warden. Later it will be placed in a zoo or a park.

"A fawn will never go back to its mother, once it's handled by a human," Underhill said. "And as long as it remains in a private home, the fawn is as good as dead." Doe Was Nearby Underhill said Dawn's father didn't know it, but the fawn's mother was nearby when he found it. There's only one chance in a thousand that the doe ever will return to the same spot. The sympathetic commissioner also pointed out that Dawn's "Bambi" would become vicious CoSlello (Continued from Tase) One) with its unsightly supports and the people, living around it will be faced with its djrt and noise. They are going to have to get out.

Where are they going?" Costello told Rea "a great many Gloucester residents work in Philadelphia and a bridge will provide them with a direct route to and from that city." "There will be no great effect on Gloucester nor anywhere else," Costello claimed, "because the approaches are going to be located in worthless marshland. You had a good reason to complain two yeirs ago when the Knappen report recommended a bridge be located at Hudson street, but at that time Mr, Mar- snail I nomas Marshall, civic council member) said if the bridge were placed on the out skirts of Gloucester it would be welcomed." 'Myth hallenscd' When Mayor Rea asked why the crossing could not be located farther south, Costello said traffic engineers had advised the further away the crossing was located the less traffic would be diverted from the present bridge I am going to challenge the myth that. Camden has been blighted by the bridge or by any thing Costello told the realtors. "It has industries known the world over, churches, schools, imposing bank structures, good hotels, fine shops, moving pic ture theatres, progressive citi zens, a well-edited newspaper whose opinions do not always coincide with mine, and every thing else that goes to make up a nrst-ciass city, including trans portation by subway, railroad and bus. Cites New York "I see no evidence that a bridge ruins a city.

The next time you are in New York, run up to the George Washington bridge and look at the magnificent apart ments that cluster around it I wish we had them here. I firmly assert that Carnden today is a better, busier and more prosper ous city than before the bridge was built. "The bridge necessitated taking property assessed at $2,071,000. But it was a mistake to assume that this was a permanent loss to the city. Many of those dis located built new quarters in Camden." Costello stated the $2,071,000 loss was offset by such new structures as the Admiral Wilson boulevard with its accompanying businesses, the Stanley and Savar theatres, the Hotel Walt Whitman, the First Camden National Bank and the Camden Trust buildings, the Wilson building, Plaza hotel, and others.
