Gandhi Pleads for Youth
Who Bombed Prayer Meet
NEW DELHI, Jan. 21 WP
Mohandas K. Gandhi said tonight
he will ask the police to be mer
ciful with a youthful Hindu ac
cused of exploding a home made
bomb near his prayer meeting
last nl;ht. The suspect could be
imprisoned for life.
"We should not harbor hatred,"
Gandhi said. "I will request the
police not to trouble him but to
have coiTipasnion towards him
and make him see the righteous
path."
Gandhi, too weak to walk be
cause of his recent fast for com
munal peace, had been carried to
the prayer meeting in a chair.
He laughed when an unidentified
man in the audience demanded
that Gandhi proclaim himself a
reincarnation of God. When the
sneaker persisted, Gandhi Impa
tiently told him to sit down and
be quiet.

controled by the combined ef
forts of the fire departments of
Merrill and Malln.
The fires started In the Mer
rill Billiards, and spread to the
Reeves Hardware and Electric
Servic? quarters next door. Ad
joining buildings had brick walls
and were saved.
An informal estimate of the
total loss to buildings and stock
and equipment was $50,000.
200,000 German Workers
Strike Over Short Food
FRANKFURT, Germany, Jan.
21 fjp) About 200,000 workers
left their Jobs In Nuernberg and
Cologne today, protesting the
food serfages.
Union speakers, addressing a
throne of 30.000 strikers in the
Nuernfcerg square formerly
Known as Aooipn Hitler Matz,
assailed the British and Ameri.
can administrations and the Ger
man government. Workers car
ried banners bearing such slo
gans as: "We want a united Ger

"Our Jet propelled fighter

"Russian workshops turn out

Would Erase "Spies"
Tito was quoted as saying a
few thousand "bandits" were In
the Yuoclav mountains and were
vexing, but of no consequence.
(Balkan Fovernment SDokesmen
regularly use the term "bandit"
for opositlon forces).
"Hundreds of thousands of
their companions who live In our
midst spy on us from London and
Washington through yet undis
covered channels." Tito was quo
ted as saving. "Comrades, these
doings must be stopped at all
costs."
The report then quoted Tito as

that the farmers are very well

WASHINGTON, Jan. 21 (TV
The report by a Trieste newspa
per that Marshal Tito claims
Yugoslavia has atomic bombs
produced the customary deep si
lence In official quarters here to
day. Spokesmen for the Atomic En
ergy Commission said that, as
in the case of previous similar
reports from Russia and else
where, there would be no com
ment on the Trieste story.
Officials have taken the posi
tion that to comment In any man
ner would be to react to obvious
"fishing expeditions" by other
nations who seek to learn how
much the United States knows
of their progress In atomic re
search or lack thereof.

Afterwards, Wherry told news
men he was "Just kidding" and "I
tust thought it was amusing."
But he added he didn't care if
Flanders took exception.
Flanders did. He said he does
not believe It was right for
Wherry to kid, "because 1 am not
sure the meeting he was address
ing knew that ne was kidding."
Flanders added:
"My entire stock of stored beef
Is one steer put In early last fall
long before I had anv thought
whatsoever of meat rationing."
Has Large Family
He said he stored the steer
"for the benefit of m" three chil
dren, their wives and husbands
and mv eight grandchildren, . . .
and I don't imagine there is much
left."
Flanders made the same reply
to Thye when the Minnesota
senator referred In the Senate
earlier this week to Flanders'
stored meat.

Endorsement of the County
Court's presentation to the legis- j
lative interim committee on roads '
at its meeting In Coquille this
week, was given by the Chamber
of Commerce dii-ectors, "save and
except that portion In which the
court opposes bond issue as a
means for financing road con
struction costs," It was stated.
Directors of the chamber
agreed that "if a bond issue is
the best solution for financing
new highways," that that meth
od should be adopted. Payments
on bonds, however, should be
made against state revenues for
highways, such as money derived
from the gasoline tax and similar
sources.
Endorsement was also given
the tentative proposals for street
Improvements as listed by City
Manager M. W. Siankard, which
will be presented to the interim
committee at Eugene Feb. 17.
