The police officer quoted James as saying the children were plaving "I Spy." when all three climbed into the old-fashioned wooden box last Friday. Then, Peterson continued, the boy related: He shut the door of the box and was unable to get it open. "My mother called me then to go to t he store. I was scared. I ran home and went to the store. Then I forgot." The victims were James Del hert Gliastnin, 2. and Joyce Ann Chastain, 9, children of Mr. and Mrs. Ed Chastain and Shirley Ann Ramsey, 6, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Arthur Ramsey.

M. Nel son, supervisor of the Umpqua National Forest. Much of the snow has melted, while highways leading to the lake have been cleared by the State Highway De partment. Dick, Hook, recreation guard for the Forest Service, will again be in charge of the Diamond Lake area. He will be stationed at the Diamond Lake Guard Sta tion. There will be no charges for use of the public camp grounds at Diamond Lake, Nelson pointed out. . Highways to the Diamond Lake area link the recreation grounds with Klamath Falls (via U. S. 97) and Medford (via the Crater Lake Highway). The North Ump qua Road links Diamond Lake with Roseburg. The Diamond Lake Lodge and the South End Store will be open for business by June 15, said Nel son. New owners of the lodge, Fox, Neeley and Larson of Med ford, have been at the Lake pre paring Xor the opening. Neison said the road to the west side of Diamond Lake, where private summer homes are located, probably will not be clear of snow until later in the sum mer. Miners' Chief Says Industry Will Benefit (Continued From Page One) said there is nothing in the con tract to permit what Lewis re ferred to as a "stabilizing period of inaction." As for the miners, their re action was summed up by one UMW member who said: "John L. Lewis has always been right for us before, hasn't he?" Helps Lewis' Purpose The strike comes on the eve of crucial negotiation for a new contract. By reducing the 65, 000,000 tons of stocked coal above ground, the walkout will bolster Lewis' bargaining position. It also will make more effective any new "no contract, no work" strike he might call in July. The present industry agreement expires . June 30. Other likely byproducts are (1) a sharp drop in the chances for repeal of the labor-hated Taft-Hartley law, and (2) a sub sequent widening of the rift between Lewis and fellow labor leaders Philip Murray of the CIO and William Green of the AFL. Little coal will be mined for some time. Next week's stop page is to end June 20 but the miners start their annual vaca tion June 25. The vacation period ends July 5 if there is a new contract to work under. Russian 'No' To Request Of Acheson Is Expected (Continued From Page One) lieved it was certain that Soviet Foreign Ministers Andrei Vishin sky would not accept the five-day deadline set by Acheson for an end to the Berlin tie-up. Acheson proposed that the Ber lin commanders, who are meet ing on the rail strike, report by June 13. He indicated that if they did not reach an agreement by then the foreign ministers would have to tackle the problem. The ministers, unable to agree on a long term plan for all Ger many, appeared to be turning to efforts to reach at least a tem porary solution to East-West con tention in Berlin.

(AP Wire photo) Shad Fishing Continues Good Shad fishing in the Smith and Umpqua Rivers, which opened May 10, has been unusually good thus far. The season remains open until the first of July. This is the only type of commercial fishing now allowed in the Ump qua River. Buyers are paying the same price as last year, 30 cents each for roe shad, and three cents each Xor bucks. During the early part of the season, the percent age of bucks caught was heavy, as customary, but in most in stances the percentage of bucks is now steadily decreasing, and the catches are running almost all roe. Some floating moss In tha river, broken loose from up-river buolders and rock ledges by the tides, Is bothering the fishermen by fouling their nets, making it necessary to clean them fre quently. Unusually heavy winds at night during the past weekend has caused additional loss of fish In some localities when the shail fall from the nets as they are be ing picked up and cleared. Lewis' Strike Order Arouses Bitterness (Continued From Page One) over strategy in the Senate labor fight. Lewis said the two other labor leaders reportedly had made "secret" deals to accept the com promise bill instead of the flat repealer. They both fired back heatedly. Murray accused Lewis of "malicious libels"; Green said the UMW leader had "put him self in a class with Senator Taft." Taft Shows Pleasure Taft, an Ohio Republican, helped write Taft-Hartley, and is fighting hard to keep most of its provisions. He grinned when asked whether Lewis' strike call improved chances for keep ing the injunction, and replied: "Oh, I think so slightly." Senator Ellender (D-La), one of those who would like to keep even more of the Taft Hartley law than Taft wants to retain, commented that the Lew-, is edict "probably will kill all moves" to amend the present law. . "It has been my contention all v aiong,- ne said, "that men of the caliber of Lewis have caused Congress to enact such legisla tion."
