2 Tk News-Review, Reseburj, Ore. Men., Feb. 20, 1950 Second U. S. Capitol Idea Being Studitd (Continued (ram page One) the capital, will be our chief menu of defense." Linen says if the nation is prop erly prepared, he has no doubts concerning its ability to withstand A bomb attack. The dispersion plan Is based on the theory that it would not be economically possible for any na tion to carry out a saturation Doma ins; campaign auch as the western allies waged over Europe in World War II.. Larsen is the former director of the Atomic Energy commission s laboratories at Albuquerque. What One Bomb Could De Rep. Holifield said in a state ment orepared for House delivery that a single bomb on Washing ton could paralye the "nerve cen ter of our nation. Hoiiield added that the develop ment of atomic weapons now has reached the point where "large cities and their inhabitants csn be destroyed by a single explosion." Ha noted that in Washington the White House, defense establish ments, the capitol, supreme court and vital government departments are located "within the square miles of destruction accredited to one atomic bomb not hydrogen bomb." The hydrogen bomb which Mr. Truman has ordered developed may be from eight to 1.000 times more powerful than the present ur-inium-olutonium weapon. Holifield as id the continuity of government functions in time ot emergency must be guaranteed, and "such guarantee does not exist at the present time." "Congress," he said, "should make this study now, while there is time to make security plans with calmness and without any semblance of hysteria." Peewee Banquet To Hear Talk ly Bill Gregory (Continued from page One) up to then, got hold of a long one, and Greg and his boys dropped the game 8-7. The Oregonian sports editor re calls that was the asm game in which Howard Maple, wbo was hitUng .476 in the State League, hit into two double playa, two pop up! and a harmlesa gounder, for which he was duly razzed, by Gre gory, who even to this risy thinks Maple has hit off him only twice. Johnny Pesky, Boston Red Sox third baseman, was then shortstop on the Oriole club. On Pleasure Trip William Kis singer, county Jsiler, left Satur day by automobile on a brief va cation trip to Lodi, Calif. He was accompanied by Mr. and Mrs George Selles and little ton, who will attend the wedding in Lodi of Mr. Selles' brother.

Phone 242 Mtrcy-Klllinq Doctor Confident Of Acquittal (Continued from pS One) God of mercy show mercy to the "merciful." The Rev. C. Leslie Curtice said to a congregation that included many reporters: "We would pray to Thee for the speedy acquittal of Doctor Sander, that the ends of divine Justice msy be served. And we would pray that this good man may soon be restored to bis rightful position as a physician and doctor to carry on the interest of humanity." At Liberty On Bail In New Hampshire, the extreme penalty for first degree murder is death by hanging, but only when the jury recommends "with csp'tal punishment." Without such re commendation the punishmeot is life inprisonment. The trail is unique in that the defendant is at liberty on 125.000 bail. According to county Solicitor William H. Craig. Sander will b free to go to his home esch night of the trial session. He hss been at liberty on that bail since his indictment. The government prosecutor is Attorney Genersl William L.

Hoover Report Backed By State Jaycee Board (Continued from parje One) cer in Hillsborough county geneial hospital. In his neighborhood church yes terday prayeri were asked that a Representative ram ueoaes, hosc- burg, address the gathering on what he called American Trends Toward Socialism. He explained the workings of a "Little Hoover Commission" committee, set up in the state of Oregon under Resolu tion No. 32 to "set the state of Ore gon's own house in order," by lurivinB esch deDsrtment and recommending changes whieh might be made for economy pur poses.

I 1.07 Local News have "undermined" England. He discussed some of the effects of this movement in that once free country, and pointed out similar trends in the United States. Saturday afternoon's session brought out numerous projects in which state Junior Chamber chap ters are participating. Plans were discussed for the state convention in Eugene May S, 6 and 7, and the National convention at Chicago, which a number of delegates will attend in June. Several Oregon dis plays will be in evidence at the convention, it was brought out. VA Given Criticism A luncheon address by Ralph Rohweder, nationsl vice-president from Chicago, highlighted early Saturday activities as he told Jay cees that public interest must be aroused in order to adopt any of the Hoover commission report. He cited several examplea of waste in the national government and especially hit Veterans admin istration handling of loans, insur ance and hospitals, pointing out in efficiency and mismanagement in all. Marble Cook, who appeared at several local meetings last week, also spoke briefly on the Houe bill which would increase the funds given public schools by the slate. The city's respects to visiting Jaycee members were voiced offi cially by Mayor Al Flegel, who spoke briefly before presenting Rnhweder with the city's hospital ity key. The msyor's remarks were preceded by introduction of Harold Schmeer and Harold Hickerson, Roseburg Chamber of Commerce president and aecretary-manager, respectively. Roseburg's Paul Bunyans also came in for their share of attention by initiating into honorary mem bership Rohweder and Frank Mer rill, national vice president from Albany. Earlier Saturday morning Eugene Attorney John Luvaas urged Jaycee delegatea to expand and mlarge their organizations by participating in the national Junior Chamber of Commerce expansion program. However, he urged club representatives to give each mem ber a job, saying, "We don't want merely knife and fork club members M inert Iqnore Second Stop-Strike" Order (Continuec from page One) EVERYDAY NEEDS Dr. Hess Ail-Around Farm Disinfectant. j QQ Germicide, Fungicide, Deodorant, 5-lb. pkg I o w O Rubberized Garden Gloves 29c Dish Cloths EEir ...41.00 29c Glass Wax Waldorf, 16-ox 13c 35e Envelopes Fomily pkg , 100's 29c Pond's Cleansing Tissues 300 . 27c Canasta Sets directions, score pad 1.69 Canasta Printed Table Cover 1.00 STOP-SLIP Magic Web.

' Keech will rule sometime within the next 10 days on the govern ment motion for an 80-day Taft Hartlev act injunction. There was no hint from the Justice department whether i' might act, meantime, to seek con tempt action against the union for ignoring the orders slresdy issued. Lewis Not In Jeopardy Administration sources specu lated Lewis himself probably would escape any contempt penalty, be cause he has twice asked the men to return. But this wouldn't neces sarily be a defense for (he union. It hss been held that a union is responsible for the mass action of its members. Any contempt penalty against the UMW waa likely to be a stiff one, considering the union's past record. That record includes a contempt fine against Lewis of $10,000 and against (he UMW of $700,000 in 1946. In 1048 Lewis was fined $20. 000 and the union $1,400,000, or double the previous penalties. The total is $2,130,000. The UMW paid off the personal fines against Iwis. The $13,000,000 to $20,000,000 now in the union's treasury is exclusive of welfare fund money, which is kept separately by the fund trus tees. None of Ihe money in the UMW treasury is used for the benefit of striking miners. This is in line with the union's traditional policy against granting strike benefits. Payments from the welfsre fund itself were suspended last fall after the fund ran short of money. I.ewis and coal operators were due to resume contract talks today. Shortsg.s Are Serious On demonstration of the effects of the coal shortage was the ra tioning of coal in New York City. A brown-out to save electric power made from coal went into clfect throughout New York state last night. Industrial as well as home users of coal in many places over the nation reported serious short ages.

The fuel shortage also was press ing tighter on industry. Jones and I.aughlin Steel corporation made plans to close plants employing 25,000, unless coal production is resumed by mid-week. Already, some 42.000 workers out side the coal industry itself are idle because of the cosl strike. BARBOURVILLE, Ky., Feb. 20.
