Offlctrs Awaiting Arrival of 'Axis Sally' (Continued from Page One) then primarily engaged In broad casting propaganda to England. After American entry into the war, the department said Miss Glllars directed Berlin programs beamed to American forces in North Africa and Italy, where the troops gave her the names 'Axis Sally" and "Midge." Her program, called "Home, sweet Home." allegedly was In tended to persuade American sol diers to lay down their arms. Justice Department officials say they also believe that Miss ulnars -appeared on a series of radio programs after the Nor mandy invasion entitled "Sur vivors of the Invasion Front." These programs Included re. corded interviews with wounded American soldiers in Nazi pris oner of war camps with strong emphasis on German "kindness. "Me for CRUSH " : -JKzZkgJ SCHERNER BROS.

Tactic in Consul Ouster Gives Russia Neat Face-Saving 'Out' By DEwrrr Mackenzie AP Foreign Affairs Analyst That's a neat bit of diplomatic repartee by the American State Department ,ln answer to Moscow's vitriolic charges In the Kosen kina case. Washington In effect gives the lie to the Russian charge that Mrs. Kasenkina and two other teachers attached to the Soviet Consulate School In New York were "kidnaped" with connivance of American officials. With equal force the note denounced Red Consul General Jacob M. Loma kin as persona no grata and asks that he be recalled. All that seems eminently satisfactory and we shall be completely happy when Mrs. Kasenkina recovers from the grave Injuries she suf fered when she leaped from third-story window of the consu late, where she says she was imprisoned. However, it strikes me that the most Important aspect of the ex change between Washington and Moscow lies In the U. S. State Department's technique In han dling this delicate and poten tially dangerous situation. While giving the Soviet a blunt, two- fisted reply, the State Depart ment adroitly provides a face saving device for the Kremlin If the latter desires to use It. The United States note says that the Russian charges, Includ ing some by Soviet Foreign Min ister Molotov himself, "have been based upon misinformation." Moreover, Washington holds Lomakln responsible for this In formation. He la accused of abuse of his position and a "gross vio lation" of proper conduct of for eign officials. How Will Molotov Act? It's easy to see that this would give Moscow a neat face-saving "out" if Molotov should choose to take it. The blame rests on Lomakln, who has only himself to thank In view of the crude and muddled methods he employed In handling the case. Of course, it remains to be seen whether Molotov will take advantage of this "out." How ever, even If he welcomes Loma kln back to Moscow with a brass band, I should hate like sin to She's looking at the largest show-window in town 'OES THIS LADY look into your store window every day? When you advertise in this newspaper, that's just what she's really doing and at her leisure tool Every day she reads these pages from front to back". And she pays closest attention to hometown news and advertising, for these are the items she uses in planning her own day. This is when she decides whether to step into your store. Your advertisement here will help with her decision. Reason 2 Every hig store In Amer ica Pollt Its fortune wtlh newspaper advertising and relies on It today.

ONLY i COVERS THE DOUGLAS COUNTY MARKET be in the consul general's shoes. Very uncomfortable things hap pen to servants who embarrass the Soviet government. In any event, the employment of this technique by the State Department gives to wonder whether a new tactic Is being developed In dealing with Mos cow. This column recently called attention to the fact that a "face saving" Is a highly important item with the Russians. They are a proud people and find It diffi cult to depart from a strongly held position without a logical excuse. Hitler's regime discov ered this characteristic in nego tiations with Moscow before the war and traded on It with great success. Berlin flew Ne. 1 Problem Well, now, where does this take us? Perhaps it takes us long way, because there are signs that the current negotiations among the Big Four in Moscow hinge In large degree on this same Issue. Russia has taken firm and spectacularly advertised nana in tne Battle of Berlin. Disposition of the whole German case cannot be undertaken until the Berlin row Is settled. And the Berlin Imbroglio can't be Ironed out unless Russia can find a graceful wav to retreat. It's my guess and it is a guess that the present negotiations are concerned mainly with this point, perhaps not officially but taciiiy. Ousted Russian Consul Prepares to Quit U. S.

S. demand to the Soviet Embassy in Washington mac ne ne recalled to Kussia. Lomakln had claimed he "res cued" Mrs. Kasenkina from an anti-communist farm retreat, operated by Countess Alexandra Tolstoy. After the teacher's leap from the Consulate window, however, police quoted her as saying she had been held a prisoner. Consulate officials, however, claimed she was trying to com mit suicide and was under great nervous tension because of the actions of the White Russian anti-communists and American officials. Meanwhile, Dr. Grant Pen noyer, hospital resident physician, said Mrs. Kasenkina, who suffer ed multiple fractures and Intern al injuries In her plunge, is "im proving right along."

Bear Comes Down, Woman Climbs Tree, Sits 2i Hrs. NESPELEM. Wash, Aug. 21 (.T) When asked to go bear-hunting, Mrs. Laura McGinnls directs a Took of cold fury upon the pe titioner and suggests that he go climb a tree as she did. Deputy V. S. Marshal Elwvn Daniel, clutching his sides, told the story yesterday of how this aversion was acquired. Mrs. McGinnls and her young grandson left their home on the Colville Indian Reservation to go hunting. Mrs. Mac saw a big black bear In a big tree. She shot. , Down the big tree care the big bear. Up a little tree went the hunt er. It was too small for the bear to climb but he posted a watch beneath. She sat there for two-and-a-half hours while the bruin walked around below, grumbling and muttering. All this time, her grandson waited, unknowing, in the car. Finally, Mrs. Mac's hi band came looking for her. She shout ed her story and he scooted away and came back with a posse. The bear departed. Mrs. MacGinnls came slowly down the tree, stiff, sore, shaking and scared. And that Is why you should never ask Mrs. MacGlnnls to go bear-hunting.

According to Oregon law, cities which plan to have the names of candidates for city offices printed on the regular county ballot for the Nov. 2 general election should submit the list of names to the county clerk not later than Aug. 28, and preferably by Aug. 23 and 24. Cities of more than 2000 population must observe this deadline In order to comply with the provisions of section 81-1.107. as amended by Chapter 50, Ore gon Laws, 19415. Although statutory nroviaions do not specifically call for a dead line In the case of cities with less than 2000 population, the same time limit should be com plied with If names of city can didates are to be included on the county ballot. The county clerk must complete preparation of the county ballot not less than 60 days before the election so that the names of candidates for city offices to be Included on the county ballot should be In his hands at least a week prior to that time. Cities which use se Da rate bal lots for election of city officers should check charter and ordin ance provisions to determine the time limits lor completion of nomination procedure and DreD- aratlon of the city ballot. Presidential Elections By Popular Vote Backed (Continued From Paga One) a lot of electoral votes," the Ala bama senator said. He added that he believed a change such as suggested by Lodge "would have a good effect in the South." "It would encourage both par ties to campaign In the South, because If the Republicans could cut into the electoral vote there which they can't do now the Democrats would be campaign ing to keep them from it." But any such change must run the gauntlet of two-thirds approv al by both Houses of Congress and approval by three-fourths of the State Legislatures.

Peters, described in testimony as a one-time head of the Communist underground in this country. But there was no assurance that the mysterious, much-sought witness would talk even if com mittee agents find him and If he Is promised Immunity from de portation which immigration authorities are threatening him with. Peters was arrested last October and released under $5,000 bond to await a decision on whether he should be deported as a mem ber of an organization advocat ing forcible overthrow of the government. Some time In the next ten days the Committee hopes to be able to subpoena Peters during the deportation hearing promised by Watson Miller, commissioner of immigration. Whittaker Chambers a self avowed former Communist and now a Time magazine senior editor, has named Peters as the man who headed the Communist underground movement In this country prior to 1937. Through questioning of Peters the committee hopes to verify some of the testimony It has re ceived from Chambers Implicat ing many former Federal officials.
