For Newspaper Service Dial 2-3311 ‘Tasty’ Shrimp Lure Fools Fish Plenty NEW ORLEANS — Frank Manning argues that fish can smell. He says they can taste, too. Otherwise, why would they be chumps enough to grab his “tasty .snrimp lure’’? The lure looks like a shrimp, tastes like a shrimp and even changes colors like one. But it is trade of plastic and it’s full of hooks. What the fish doesn’t know is that the plastic shtimp has a head that screws off. The fisherman fills the cavity with fresh shrimp, screws the head back on, and tosses the lure into the water. Tiny holes.in the body of the lure allow enough shrimp to leak out pto fool the fish. Little fish can’t steal a man’s bait when he uses Manning’s gad NOTICE CITY AND COUNTY TAX PAYERS Additional penalty and advertising cost will be add ed to all unpaid city and county taxes after Aug. 1st, 1947.

Peterson, general chair man of the Southern Pacific Brotherhood of Locomotive En gineers, dropped dead today as he testified before a meeting of President Truman’s special board called to study the engineers strike that ended yesterday. He was one of two Brotherhood negotiators who worked almost continuously with company rep resentatives for nearly 15 hours Monday in bargaining for settle ment of the dispute that touched off a six and one-half hour strike on the nation’s largest railroad. The 63 year-old official collaps ed and died, apparently from a heart attack, as he was testifying before the board a half hour after it convened here in the Palace hotel. He followed Harrison Hobart, assistant grand chief of the Brot herhood with testimony and was speaking in a tense voice, ex UNBLOCK ^DIGESTIVE TRACT And Stop Dosing Your Stomach With Soda and Alkalizers Don’t expect to get reel relief from headache, •our itomach, gaa and bad breath by taking soda and other alkalizere if the true cause of tout trouble ia constipation.

He turned to pick up a report of the last board that studied the demands — the panel appointed by the late President Roosevelt in 1945 — declaring he wanted to enter it in the record of his 1947 board. As he leaned over the table, he swayed and collapsed into the arms of Hobart. He was pronounc ed dead by Dr. Shelby P. Strange, summoned from the hotel. During the strike Peterson clung adamantly to his stand that all 20 issues must be settled be fore the walkout would be called off. Not until 12:30 a. m. yesterday did he finally waver and agree to accept the company’s offer to grant 15 of the issues if the Brot herhood would withdraw the re maining five, including one for an increase of $2.92 in daily mini mums. The strike touched off a bar rage of protests from western farm and industrial organizations and brought charges.from Congres sional delegations in Washington. D. C.. that it was “without justifi cation’’. Peterson had been general chairman of the unit for more than 20 years. Prior to that he had liv ed in Sparks, Nev.. where he was an engineer on the Salt Lake di vision of the Southern Pacific. ATHLETES FOOT ITCH NOT HARD TO KILL.
