Experience Of State Police In Crime Detection Told By Sgt. Harrell To Kiwanis Club By LEROY INMAN City Editor, News-Review A state patrolman making c routine traffic check near Coos Bay stopped a car with three oc cupants. He saw one man in front fidgeting nervously in his pocket with one hand. The man in the rear had his hand under a blan ket, from which the butt of a pistol was barely visible. Not wishing to shoot it out un der such conditions, the officer calmly cited the driver to appear in court on a traffic violation four or five days later. The occupants relaxed and brought their hands into the open. Seeing his chance the officer quickly drew his own gun. He arrested what proved to be three well - known safe rob bers, with $42,000 loot. This is an experience state po lice may run up against at any time, State Police Sgt. Lyle Har rell said in a brief talk before -the Roseburg Kiwanis club Tues day noon in the Hotel Umpqua. On another occasion four drunk en loggers, who looted a woman's car. were traced to Prospect by officers. Not only did they arrest the men and recover $2300 loot, but also met two men in a jeep with six deer. They returned to headquarters with the six men and six deer, related the officer. Eight Officers Killed The casualty rate among state patrolmen has run rather high, tight men have met their death and others have been injured on duty, said Sgt. Harrell. But that cannot be because they are not well trained, he said. The men upon acceptance are given the finest of training in self protection disarming, judo and other schooling. But most of the men on the force like it and stay on the lob, because the work is interesting, he said. Sgt. Harrell traced briefly the history of the state police, organ ized In 1931. Prior to that time state officers did limited traffic i patrol work. The organization was set up to enforce the law ' without disci iiuinai ion, and to ex- tend courtesy w herever possible. The original 75 men has grown to many times that number. The Roseburg office has 16 men In cluding three game division men assigned to Douglas County, exclusive of Reedsport. The main highways are patroled at all times, and the game men are also qualified to make arrests for other violations. All cars are equipped with two-way radios, using KM for sending. There a-e 25 fixed radio stations in th.i state, Harrell explained. There are four state police districts, with headquarters at Baker. Mil waukie, Salem and Medford. Roseburg is in the Medford dis trict. He discussed other phases of the organization, which includes a finger print file of 350.000 names at Salem, and the crime detection bureau in connection with the University of Oregon medical school in Portland. Cooperation, especially with other law enforcement acencies, such as city, county and FBI, are keynotes of the patrol's success, he emphasized. This cooperation, said the officer, has been most gratifying on all occasions. Air Force Discusses Arctic Bases From Which To Strike Over North Pole NON-SUPPORT CHARGED Sheriff O. T. "Bud" Carter re ported that George W. Rathe 24, of Roseburg. was arrested July 23 by sheriff's deputies and com mitted to the county Jail, charged with failure to provide for minor children. Sheriff Carter said John Rus sell Nolan, 30, Tenmile, was also admitted to the county Jail, charged with vagrancy. Justice A. J. Geddes set bail at $50. WASHINGTON. July 27 .P The air force is talking about forward air bases deep in the Arctic at which bombers could refuel on strikes across the Polar cap. A cautious official reference to this hitherto secret plan for stretching the j-each of bombers operating from airfields within the United States came to light today. In a report on plans and money needs for the new heavy bomber base at Limestone, Me., the air force says: "A typical polar operation might Involve aircraft taking off from United States air bases, the staging or topping off of these aircraft at forward bases in Northern Canada, Greenland, nr even the Polar ice cap." This project may explain how the USA can make good its claim that the huge B-36 bomber can strike virtually all "signifi cant military targets on the earth from bases in the western hemis phere." The distance from bases with in the United States Itself to po tential targets in the heartland of the Eurasian continent would be beyond the range of even the B-36. However, the new strategy suggested in the report indicates that the missions would operate like this: A B-36. whose home field was Limestone or some other air drome in the United States, would load up with bombs and a comparatively light load of fuel. It would fly two or three thousand miles to a staging base on the rim of the North Ameri can continent, in Greenland or elsewhere in the far North. There the bomber would "top off" its fuel tanks (fill them to capacity.) That would carry the Intercontinental bomber to the target and back to the staging base or to friendly territory be yond enemy territory. FURNISHES BAIL DarreH Knight, 46, Canyon ville, has been released from the Douglas county jail upon posting of $1,000 bail, set upon arraign ment in Justice court on a charge of threatening the commission of a felony, reported Justice A.
