Riot Bans Concert By Paul Robeson, Singer-Commie NEW YORK, Aug. 30. CD The Civil Rights congress said today President Truman may be asked to start an investigation of the Peekskill, N. Y.t riot that broke up a scheduled concert by Negro singer Paul Robeson. Will Lawrence, state executive secretary of the congress, which has been listed as subversive by the Justice department, said a delegation may be named at a rally here tomorrow night to take the protest in person to the White House. At least eight persons were injured, two seriously, when war veterans, protesting the Robeson recital, clashed Saturday night with several thousand concert- goers. Proceeds of the recital were to go to the Harlem branch of the Civil Rights congress. Tomorrow night's protest rallv. to be held in Harlem, will be sponsored by the congress, the American Labor party and a group oi individuals. Lawrence said a delegation also would be named at the rally to call on Governor Thomas E. Dewey. The group, he said, will demand a public investigation of tne ianure of state police to act" In time to prevent the fist swinging melee. Robeson, frequently Identified with left-wing activities, was in tercepted by friends before he reached the concert grounds. He claimed the disorder was part of a "national terror" and an attack on the Negro people. The main military items made by ironmakers during the Revo lutionary War were cannon and cannon balls, cast from molten iron at the blast furnace. 850 E. 1st St. Center . ...

UP) Some day, I do not guarantee when, this reporter is going to learn to keep his hi; 'yap shut. About dogs, anyway. A tew days ago 1 committed a piece for the papers to the ef fect that dogs are not what they used to be. I said they were somewhat on the sissy side now adays, that they weren't getting In. the headlines much, that the cats seemed to be taking over. . It seems some dog-doters-on in Jackman Station, Md., Chula Vis ta. Calif., and points between dis agree. Also, tney write letters, rxice letters. Suggesting in a friendly sort of way that when I wrote my piece I was probably drunk, under ether, or in the pay of the international association of dog catchers. Newspapers React Some newspapers also reacted. The Utica, N. Y., Observer Dispatch squandered half a pane of perfectly good newsprint, wilh pictures, to demonstrate inai sand was running out of my ear. Well, horrible as the thought may be, I could be wrong. A couple of the more construc tive letters lead toward that con clusion. There is. for instance, the case of Jetty, reported by Dick John son of Tampa, Fla. Jetty is a Texan. (Why a man from Ftorida should be boosting a dog from Texas puzzles me, too.) Anyway, Jetty, a black mon grel, is one leap beyond a see ing eye dog. She' a hearing ear dog. She telephone-listens for Mrs. J. D. Ingram of Dallas, who is hard of hearing. When Mrs. Ingram's phone rings, Jetty cocks her head to the right When it rings a second time, Jetty cocks her head to the left The third time, Jetty de cide Mrs. Ingram hasn't heard it and starts barking like crazy. Doesn't Know How Mr. Ingram can hear Jetty barking and she can hear on the phone. What she can't hear is the telephone bell. Jetty know that. How? The man from Tampa doesn't sav. Then there is Pat, a collie. Pat came to live with Mr. and Mrs. Richard Douthitt of Darlington, Pa., as a pup. Fine pup, too. His favorite job was waking Douthitt each morning and he sulked if his master got up unassisted. Well, one day Pat was missing. No one knew why. No domestic trouble. Accounts all in order. Just another case for the bureau of missing dogs. Seven years later a dog turned up in the Doulhilt neighborhood, all pooped out. Dog tired, in fact. "Why, he looks like Pat,"the Douthitts said. Remembers Old Trick Experimentally, they took him home. He ran all around the place, sniffing, as if he weren't quite sure, he belonged there. The Douthjtts weren't sure, ei ther, but: "The next morning," Mrs. D. write, "I said to him. Tat, go fell mm displayed by youno Ervin Stritike of Winchester, is a lot of ll .LI l II I upstair and get Dick up.' "He went charging up the stairs, barking his head off. "He lumped right Into the mid dle of the bed, in his excitement. "We have never doubted for. a minute after that that he is our pup. Pat." All rignt. I m convinced, uoirs are still wonderful.

A 1L- Li I in owner to in pnoiogropnor, Marshall Plan Is Working Well In West Europe PULLMAN. Wash.. Aug. 30. (JFi The Marshall plan is work ing so well In western Kurope that the Lutheran church feel it is no longer necessary for It to give supplemental food air there. Dr. :s. c Michel telder, execu tive secretary of the Lutheran World federation, said in a speech Friday night that the sit uation was not as bright east of the Iron Curtain. He told 2,000 delegates to the annual Lutheran league conven tion that countries within the Russian sphere in influence have just about the same food situa tion as existed all over the con tinent in 1945 when the war end ed. He said the church Is continu ing its aid program in eastern Europe, with the approval of the countries involved. They want our dollar," he said, "Just the night before I left Geneva, we were Invited to spend $250,000 a year In Hun gary. We didn't have it to soend but at least we were invited to do so." Dr. Michelfelder, whose head quarters are in Switzerland, aid he felt the financial problem was a bigger one - than the political problem In carrying on the church aid program in "Iron Cur tain" countries. He said it was not too difficult to enter and leave eastern Europe on church business. magical! glowing! true - this camera phptogr xT II ecu r 1ft uk ' tt .It Railway Line In Klamath County Tied Up By Strike KLAMATH FALLS. Aug. 30 (1P The thirteen operating em ployes of one of the country' shortest class I railroads the Or egon, California and Eastern went on strike Monday morning. Traffic was stopped completely on the 65-mlle line running from Kiamain fans to my, wholly within Klamath county. The strike was precipitated by a deadlock between the railway company and the Order of Rail way Conductors over four claims for time pay, one request for a rest period between runs, and an issue over Injury to an em ployee. Officials of the Great Northern, currently operating the O. C. & E., said they received no written notice of the intention of the employes to strike. Sunday eve ning, they said, they were given verbal information that the tie up would come at 12:01 a. m., Monday. The O. C. 4 E. Is jointly owned by the Great Northern and Southern Pacific. The parent companies alternate in five-year operating periods, the G. N., be ing currently in charge. G. W. Lange, vice president of the conductors organization, Is in to await developments. He said all requirements of the railway labor act have been complied with and that workers Involved have unanimously favored the strike. The railroad operate two freight trains daily. Its major business Is in cattle, lumber ind logs. It hauls logs dally from eastern Klamath county to the big Weyerhaeuser mill here. Pickets were thrown up at the railroad yard office. Lange said there Is no chance of the strike spreading to the bigger lines unless one of the parent companies should attempt to operate the O. C. E. with G. N. or S. P. crew.
