"As I see It, we've done pretty well at keeping our major secrets to ourselves," he added. Eisenhower, now president of Columbia University, made his remarks at a press conference an hour arter he and nis wue arriv ed In Denver for a vacation. The wartime Commander of Allied Forces In Europe said he f found many of his men didn't have a clear Idea of what they 1 were fighting for. He blamed this on America's schools. "Cities should give first prior ities to teachers,'rhe said. "The teacher's position in the com munity should be raised. Their oav should be doubled to attract 1 more and better people to the profession and to make them feel they are apostles of democracy. "Technical and professional studies should be only a part of a broad general education de signed to make effective citizens of this Democracy." On security, the General said nolicv matters had been debated openly as part of a Democratic government but "technical matt ers are different." "I don't know If our laws are adequate but adequate adminis tration and concern will do that lob," Elsenhower added. "We mustn't be naive or idiotlo but we can be careful.

(AP Wire-photo) Employment In Douglas County In July Near Peak Employment In Douglas County climbed during July to a point that is but little short of the peak the Oregon State Employment Service reports. With practically no rain to hamper operations, the lumber Industry Is In full swing. Bean picking started at the end of the month with a good crop In prospect. Building and other construction work Is going ahead at an accelerated rate of speed. The anticipated shortages in skilled classifications has mate rialized, and It is becoming in creasingly difficult to secure qualified workers for key Jobs in Industry. The supply of un skilled workprs is adequate and no shortage la expected in this field. A slight gain In claims for un employment compensation over the month of June was noted. TI.e change from the 1948 benefit year waa responsible for the In crease. The number of job openings at the end of the month totaled slightly more than at the end of June. Sixty percent were In the lumber industry witn ie major ; lty in the skilled and semi-skilled I classifications. The balance are distributed between construction, trade and service, and otner in dustries. The current high level of em ployment Is expected to remain constant throughout the summer months and until early fall. Out of stnte applications for work ate belni? received dally In the mall.

The controls over down pay ments are likely to come back "as was." That means one-third down for passenger cars, refrig erators, washing machines, ra dios, silverware, Jewelry and other Items. Twenty per cent was required for furniture, pianos, rugs and draperies. Purchases of less than $V and more than $2,000 probably will be control-free, although the upper limit may be lifted because $2,000 hardly buys a "low-price" car In today's market U. S.

Boiled down, the whole thing came to this: 1. Mrs. Kosenkina, the Russian teacher who was the center of a furore last weekend over "kid naping" and "rescue" charges, has no diplomatic Immunity. It the House committee can reach her, It can serve a call for her to appear and testify before It. 2. The Soviet consulate In New York can be entered only if war rants are obtained alleging the commission of some crime on the property. As a practical matter, It all means that Mrs. Kosenkina can be served with a subpoena If she leaves the consulate, but Is safe from subpoena as long as she remains there. Stories Contradictory Earlier today, the House Com mittee on Un-American Activi ties heard the testimony of Dun can C. Lee, former OSS opera tive, who flatly denied the ac cusation that he ever gave secret Information to Elizabeth Bentley, confessed Soviet agent. Lee, during the war, was with the Office of Strategic Services, a counter espionage agency. He is now practicing law here.

He said it was hard to believe Miss Bent ley's charges came from a "ra tional person." Miss Bentlpy then took the stand and testified Lee told her about "something super secret" going on at Oak Ridge, Tenn., where .the atom bomb was devel oped, about OSS operations In China and In the Balkans. Lee didn't know exactly, what was going on at Oak Ridge, Miss Bentley said, but told her it must be "something super secret be; cause It was so highly guarded.' She said he gave her the in formation during a conversation outside his home In Washington. Lee, who was shot down while on an OSS mission to China, had flatly testified under oath that "I have never divulged classified Information to any unauthorized person." 'Somsbody Lied' Rep. Hebert (D.-La.) told Lee and Miss Bentley their testimony was so contradictory that it was obvious "somebody lied." Both witnesses agreed with that state ment. Hebert said: "I don't know who is a liar, but I am going to find out." And, he declared, he will Insist that the Justice De partment bring perjury charges against any witness who has lied. Representative Mundt said he associates himself with Heberfs remarks. "In the Interests of justice and Tha noma "CORONADO" on your appliances means Quality.

Lee said he had been acquaint, ed with Miss Bentley, but knew her under the name of -Helen Grant. "Our acquaintance was entirely a social one," he said.
