No Intention Of Resigning, Says Secy. Acheson WASHINGTON. Feb 1. UP) Secretary of State Acheson said i,msi nigni mat, aespite mounting congressional demands, ne nas neiiner oriered to quit because of the Alger Hiss case nor has he beep asked to do so by Presi dent Truman. Acheson said last week that "I do not intend to turn my back on- Algor Hiss," a statement which prompted numerous law makers to demand his resigna tion. Hiss, a former State depart ment official, has been convicted of. perjury in a trial that linked him with Communists arid sen tenced to five years imprison ment. In another follow-up to the Hiss trial, Senator Wiley (R-Wis) ask ed Congress today to at least dou- oie ine present three-year time limit for prosecuting "espionage uiienses in peace ume. "Without passing judgment on the Hiss trial," Wiley said. "I'd like to point out that Mr. Hiss was convicted not of espionage, but of merely lying on matters relating to it.'' He said he was introducing bill to extend the statute of limi tations on peacetime spy cases He pointed out that In war time espionage ' can be punished bv death and there is no time limit for such prosecutions. "It Is absurd for the federal government to tie Its own hands, as at present, and to be unable to prosecute individuals for spy offenses which they committed In a previous three-year period," Wiley said. The senator added that he fa vors stitfer penalties for "any federal official who betrays se crets of his nation In time of peace" than for an "ordinary cit izen or an agent of a foreign government." tlie liour OUT OUR WAY Tick's" Tips On Veterans Hospital By L. J. "TICK" MALARKEY Maybe you know that the Grove comprises a pretty com plete little village, with over 600 patients and nearly 400 employes. Uke any otner village it neeas a fire and police department. This unit of the engineering divi sion is the guard force, with Chief Guard Bill Franklin n charge. He has for his assistants George Loomis, Al Lauri, Har old Leep and John McClement; One or more of these men are on duty every minute of the 24 hours. Besides being policemen and firemen they double as re lief men on the switch board, punch the watchmen's clocks, drive ambulances in emergency and ,as mechanics, make minor repairs to electrical or otner equipment of an emergency na ture. Their record as drivers and safety men is good. "We never had a petient injured and we have never had a major traffic accident," says George Loomis with pride. All of the residents of Rose burg and surrounding territory will recall the expert attention that the men gave to handling the traffic problem at ennstmas wnen tne mtivity scene was on display. In one two-hour period they handled as many as 1,500 automobiles past tne view ana, in so doing, gave each car load n opportunity to park orieny and admire the display. A con servative estimate is that 20,000 ersons came to the grounds dur- ng the holidays. Some oi tne residents oi me community have come in contact with the guards In a way that hasn't made them too happy. That is when the guard is func tioning as a trallic patrolman. The regulations regarding traf fic on the grounds are strict and must be so. Every effort s made to get patients out of doors when possible, so that control of speed Is essential wnen cars are Travel ing through the grounds. The boys must act and sometimes give out tickets to those who pay no attention to signs. The roads on the hospital are private roads, not state maintained, and the public is permitted to drive through as a courtesy. The boys sometimes think that the cour tesy is abused and pass out little pieces of paper, and then the Judge says "Ten dollars please". The boys hate to do It, but pa tients must be protected.. These are a couple of para graphs and a book could be fill ed about the life to date of Nurse Nellie Bauldry who Is to retire before long after better than 30 years in the practice of her profession. Green Bay, Wise. was once, her home town. There she received her grade and high school education. Cook county hospital In Chicago enroll ed student Nellie after a high school diploma had been given at Green Bay. Upon completion of her training she was full-fledged nurse and soon after sailed to Russia, year 1916, aboard the 1 mercy ship of the Red Cross to i aid the starving, maimed and GET WELL and STAY WELL!

When America. declared war, It was Red Cross Nurse Bauldry who volunteered. So did three brothers and at Chateau Thierry one of them, Roy, paid the su prerrfe price. All of these years this gracious lady has been with the VA hospitals some of them as the chief nurse. For the past six years Roseburg has been home and It will be from here that she will be retired. "My dues are paid to the Gor don Gale post of the American Legion, Little Rock, Ark. and don't vou call me a Greybeard," and a smile lit the features of Nurse Nellie Bauldry.

I can say without contradiction that I have never in any VA hospital enjoyed my stay any more than I have here." Thus writes Joseph A. Waller, veteran of both wars I and II. Patient Waller was sent to Roseburg from Camp White for an emergency operation and treatment for a "service connect ed" wound.

His wife, Avis, a VA attendant, brought him in from Dixonville where their 75-acre farm is located, and surgery right then and tnere probably saved his life. Another operation is to be performed this week to wind up the October job, and everything then will be all right for Kid Neal. The sound of his hammer and saw should soon be heard again for he is a carpenter working out of the Roseburg local. Not to be outdone bv Lloyd is Mrs. Neal's brother-in-law, John E. Chancellor, who lives nortn of here at Wilbur. The good sur geons fixed him up Saturday for an emergency appendectomy. John also farms between build ing work. "Nothing like having the en tire family around we have put the both of them in adjoining wards," said Attendant Avis. Was it Mark Twain who said THE YARN SHOP 230 N.
