Soviet Embassy
Magazine Offers
'Truth To U. S
WASHINGTON -UP- The So
viet embassy's English-language
magazine, barred from a num
ber of American schools, has
invited subscriptions from
"many thousands of Americans
eager for more truth" about Rus
sia. The latest Issue of the USSR In
formation Bulletin, after listing
some of the "fine articles and
revealing photographs" It has
carried In the past to give a "thorough-going,
rounded picture" of
the Soviet Union, says:
"Your relative, neighbor or
shopmate is missing all these
things through no fault of his or
her own. We believe you could
help us and them and there
fore are addressing you on this
page.
"We want these Americans to
know our publication, to become
acquainted with both It and the
Soviet people."
8poial Rate Offered
It said it is offering special
gift-rate Christmas subscriptions
$1 for 24 issues so its readers
can "join with us in building
friends in the cause of peace,
international understanding and
good-fellowship."
The bulletin is a slick-paper
magazine offering a strictly So
viet view of world Issues, along
with a bright picture of life in
Russia.
It lists Its regular price as 10
cents a copy. Recently, a number
of American schools have receiv
ed free copies for their libraries.
The magazine has been barred
from schools in Springfield and
Fall River, Mass., Columbus,
Ohio, and Washington.
The current issue of the bulle
tin contains articles, with titles
like: "Vishlnsky proves U.S.
atom control plan aids monopoly,
not peace."
Here Is Example
One story a reprint from the
Soviet "New Times" entitled
"Tito sells refugee children"
starts:
"Worried about the situation in
Yugoslavia and Greece, the Bri
tish and American cliques that
rule these countries against the
interests of their people are now
working to contrive a Belgrade
Athens Fascist-police 'axis'."
The magazine's full-page ao
peal for wider circulation is ad
dressed "Dear Reader" and goes
on:
"The postman brings us daily
evidence that many thousands

As the mercury creeps downward toward what may or may
not be a new low in Roseburg history and as a smattering of
soft, wet snow makes its pre-Chrlstmas debut on the scene there's
little doubt that the population hereabouts has the Christmas
spirit. We at KRNR are afflicted with the same happy malady . . .
for where else Is one more concerned with all of the Christmas
carols ... the Christmas drama . . . .and the over-all creating
of the Christmas theme, than in radio? We gotta produce . .. or
else we'll get a deluge of verbal punches in the noses via cards,
letters and telephone calls . . . and so we will produce, as a result
of wanting to. It's about this season of the year that the dialer
switches on his radio to hear Crosby singing "Silent Night," Colman
doing his "Scrooge" routine, or our own Boy Hiatt rendering "'Twas
the Night Before Christmas." And we'll have them all all the
Christmas music, messages, and drama that can possibly be fitted
Into the broadcast, days remaining before Christmas!
And so to "Queen of America" the phrase on every
tongue. Seems that when the luoky winner of "Queen's"
current "Queen of America" contest is announced early
next month, she'll be showered with a list of prizes praotl
cally unheard of, even during these days of fabulous give
aways. A glorious trip to Europe, a British MG oar, a fabu
lous wardrobe including virtually every kind of clothes and
sportswear, suites of furniture, an all-eleotrlo kitchen, a
diamond bracelet and watch, other Jewelry,' oamera and
home-movie equipment, a children's equipped playground,
a complete set of luggage, furs and dozens of other feminine
treasures are included In the list of prizes. Entries for the
contest closed Saturday, December 10. "Queen for a Day"
Is heard dally over KRNR . . . 11:30 a. m. to 12 noon.
Tune in tonight's "Jr. Chamber of Commerce Forum" at 7:30
. . . Alan Ladd starring in "Box Thirteen" at 8 . . . and another
"Citizen-of-the-Week" interview feature during "Jovin Jamboree"
at 8:30. , ,
of Americans are eager for more
truth, more facts about the Un
ion of Soviet Socialist Republics.
"Mail received in the office of
the USSR Information Bulletin
attests to this hunger and it is
expressed in letters and cards
that are sincere, honest and
friendly."

Judge Rules Against
Claim Of Paternity
LOS ANGELES, MP) Leroy

of the son born Oct, 15 to unwed
Loretta Miller, 17, has no legal
rights as a parent, says Superior

the right to say whether a father
should be a father or not"

Legislature has given her. that
right. Under the law, the mother
is the only parent of an Illegiti
