Unfilled order files lor lumber
mounted and gross stocks at

production, according to H. E.
Smith, secretary, West Coast
Lumbermen's association. Orders
have exceeded output lor nine of
the last twelve weeks.
Kir producers accepted 18 mil
lion feet a week more business
during September than produc
tion. Smith pointed out. Even In
the lace ol a serious freight car
shortage in southern Oregon,
mills shipped IS million leet a
week more lumber than they cut
during September.
Bv September's end gross stocks
at mills had shrunk to 929.038.0U0
hoard leet. lowest In 12 months.

Stocks dropped 38 million leet in
September Irom August totals

12 million leet over August.
Both orders and shipments were
well above production for the
first 39 weeks of 1949, Smith stat
ed. He said the demanr" for West

Actress Object
Of Police Search
At Los Angeles
LOS ANGELES. Oct. U-(.?V
Police ran own such leads as
"a clean cut young man," some
one named Kirk, and an enig
matic note today, as thev search
ed lor Jean Elizabeth Spangler,
movie and television bit player
and lormer Earl Carroll dancer.
But not a single clue paid off.
The only reallv tangible lead. In
vestigators said, was her ripped
purse, lound in rambling Griffith
park. The 27-year-old brunette
has been missing since Friday
night. The purse was lound Sun
day. Locally, there were published
reports suggesting that she is the
tenth victim of a series of unsolv
ed sex murders which began in
January, 1948. with the mutila
tion slaying of Elizabeth hort,
known as the Black Dahlia."
Other reports linked her to the
Miml Boomhower case. The
wealthy Mrs. Boomhower disap
peared In August, hut the onlv
similarity between the two cases
seemed only to be that the purse
of each was lound.
Two witnesses Identified photo
graphs of Miss Spangler as a girl
they had seen In a Hollywood
cafe with a "neat appearing man
between 30 and 35 years of age"
early Saturday.
Investigators were mystified
over a note in the purse reading:
"Kirk can't wait any longer.
Going to see Dr. . Will work
best this way while mother is
away." The mother, Mrs. Eliza
beth Spangler. formerly ot St.
Louis, is visiting relatives In Lex
ington. Ky.

Initiative Petition At
Salem Presents Puzzle
SALEM. Oct. 13. .? A pre
liminary initiative petition, the
first filed for the 1950 general
election, was filed in the State
department Tuesday.
But nobody knows what It
means around here.

Beach, Portland, said it would
amend the constitution to "per
petuaie the tax freedom" ol Ore
gon citizens.
It says:
"The financial policy of this
state shall implement the develop
ment and perpetuation ol tax
Ireedom by utilizing the service
contributions of Its citizens as

Czechoslovakia's
Spreading Purge
Arousing Dread
PRAGUE, Oct. l.T . Large
sections of Czechoslovakia's 13.
000.000 people live in lear today
wnue the Communist government
carries out a purge that has hit
Army Officers, Catholic officials.
Businessmen and Communist
party functionaries.
Citizens display a dread bor
dering on tearful hysteria that
almost anybody can be hit in
the great roundup, bv the charge
of treason or of "Titnism" or
merely by the denunciation of
some snooper.
The police roundup Is center
Ing In Prague, but it is hitting
elsewhere In Bohema and Mora
via. Slovakia, however, is the
scene of more routine arrests,
chiefly of Roman Catholic priests
and other accused of being "dis
sident elements."
Some estimates, doubtless ex
agerated, place the number of
those arrested throughout the
country In recent da as high
as 30.000. There is nothing official
yet from the Communist-led gov
ernment. Even wearers of Communist
Party badges didn't appear to
leel safe.
An unimpeachable source said
that two officers in Moravia had
been sentenced to life imprison
ment lor high treason. Five co
defendants were given shorter
terms. Other sources said many
officers had been arrested as
"political unreliables" at Olom
ouc. also In Moravia.
The roundup of thousands of
small business and professional
persona was reported diminish
ing, though it still continued.

Belittling Of A-Bomb's
Power Branded "Silly"
WASHINGTON. Oct 12.ePL
Two lawmakers told Cnnirr.'si
Tuesday It Is not true that an
atomic blast won't hurt you from
a nine ana a nan away.
Senator MrMalion (D-Conni
said In the Senate that it was
"sillv" of Navv I'nmmanHni S-'i t-
gene Tatom to make such a state
ment to the House Armed Serv
ices committee.
McMahon Is chairman nf th
Senate - House Atomic Energy
committee. Another member of
that group. Rep. Hollifield ID
Califi, similarly denounced Ta-
tom'i statement In a' House
speech.
Hollifield said Tatom must
have drawn his conclusions from
knowledge ol the "obsolete"
bombs dropped on Japan. Great
progress has been made since
Ihe war, Hollifield said, in de
veloping the A-bomb.
The United States' present area
of commercial forest land Is esti
mated at 461 million acres.
Other reliable sources said 40
more Roman Catholic priests and
nuns had been arrested, joining
more than 300 church leaders in j
Jail because they oppose govern-1
ment plans to take over control
of the nation's churches on Nov.
As yet the government-eontroll-1
ed Czech press has not reported
any ol these arrests.
