In the Day's News By FRANK JENKINS George F. Kennan, who for 25 years has been a career diplomat, is stepping (at least temporarily) out of our state department. Since 1947, he has been our No. 1 author ity on Russia. That lends consid erable interest to his views on the general Russian situation as it bears on us. He says: "I believe the American people will have to maintain a large mil itary establishment for many years to come . . . But we should never make the mistake of regarding war with Russia as inevitable ... If we do that, we shall write off the chances of peace." In other words: We must be ready to fight at the drop of a hat if our liberties are threatened but we must be equally ready to make peace if peace with honor and liberty is possible. War is the LAST resort. But we must be prepared for it. It sounds like good common sense. While we're at it, let's think through to its ultimate conclusion this business of maintaining a (Continued on Page Four) Heiress Gets City's Nod To Establish Pig Farm SOMERVILLE. N. J.

Girl Confesses Aid In Murder By Her Boy Friend LOS ANGELES UP) -"We wanted money to get married on," 16-year-old Peggy Byrns testified Wednesday in explaining the mo tive for a holdup that ended in murder. Speaking slowly, blowing kisses occasionally to her sweetheart, Tommy Cook, 18, on trial for mur der in the slaying of liquor store owner Dominic Calarco, she shoul dered blame for the affair. "Of course we considered our selves married. . . we even had a (mock) marriage certificate drawn up. We both signed it and felt we were man and wife. But we wanted money for a real wed ding." she said. "It was my idea to stage the holdup. It was my idea to get a gun. It was my idea to 'case' 4he store first . . . I even helped load the gun for Tommy. But it wasn't his idea, or anybody's to shoot that man. That was just an accident." Authorities say Peggy, Cook and other teen-agers were members of a cilme club that planned rob beries in high schocl class rooms, using ideas obtained from comic books and radio mysteries. Other witnesses have testified that Cook fatally shot Calarco dur ing the May 12 holdup. "I met Tommy at a halloween party. I loved him. I love him now." Peggy sobbed. They half carried her, weeping, from the stand.

GERMAN SLAVES TOIL UNDER RED LASH Uranium Ore Needed For Atomic Bombs Keeps 300,000 Digging BERLIN (JPt The British charged today that 300,000 Ger man "slave" laborers under a Communist whiplash are mining uranium ore essence of atomic bombs night and day in east Germany "for the sole benefit of the Russian war machine." "Millions of tons of German uranium ore" for the Soviet is being produced in "little Siberia" prison camp conditions, said a re port by British control commis sion authorities. Unskilled, impressed labor is paid less than $2 weekly it was said. Detailing the "frantic" 24-hour-a-day operations inside barbed wire enclosed shafls, the British statement observed: "The only beneficiaries of this extravagant drive are the Rus sians. The east German economy gets nothing out of it, but is even disrupted by the inexhaustible de mands, "It can only be concluded that the Russians are in urgent need of uranium for purposes other than peaceful reconstruction."

An emergency airlift has been organized to fly members of Par liament to Ottawa for an emer gency session Tuesday to deal with the walkout. Already idle are more than 200,000, including 124, 000 rail strikers. No direct government interven tion was in 'prospect before the opening of Parliament. The ad ministration stood by its decision to have the legislators share re sponsibility for any action. Meanwhile, industries dependent for supplies on the Canadian Na tional and Canadian Pacific rail systems face early closedowns. Some already have begun. Food shortages threatened. Some industrial issues on the stock ex change took a nose dive. Travel ers were stranded. Merchants started food ration ing in northern Ontario towns. Three thousand Novia Scotia coal miners were laid off, because of lack of coal cars. Similar re ports came from other parts of the nation. The government obtained auth ority today to mobilize and control all commercial aircraft to cope with the strike. Paralysis Crowing The nation meanwhile faced the gloomy prospect of widespread shutdown of its heavy Industry and of heavy losses in sales and dis tribution. Canada's millions already felt a shortage of mail and a total lack of telegraphic services. Big cities dependent on rail- hauled coal for their power houses, faced electrical shortages. As the quick effects of the stran gulation swept across the country refinery workers, packing house workers, base metal miners and flour mill operators went home with nothing to do. Western wheat farmers and Ontario peach producers expected critical results from the lack of rail transportation which carries their products and which bring migratory harvest workers to their fields. . . Roseburg Offices Lack Candidates Political offices in Roseburg are going a-begging. City Recorder W. A. Gilchrist said today only two candidates have submitted their petitions to file for city offices in the Nov. 7 general election and the Sept. 2 deadline is only ten days away.

Russell, local bus inessman, was the first to file for candidacy. He will run for mayor. Also slated for the ballot 1 s voting on an additional council man from ward 1 and two from ward 2. Neither Mayor Albert G. Flcgel, nor Councilman Percy Croft, Chester Morgan and Henry Carstens have signified their in tentions to run again for office. According to City Ordinance 1092, the council is authorized to appoint councilmcn to vacancies created when terms expire and an election does not produce suc cessors. Night And Day workings.

(NEA telephoto) DAVE BUSENBARK That's Name Chosen For Tract To Be Dedicated In County Judge's Honor A 28-acre plot of county timber land will be dedicated to re tiring County Judge 0. N. Busenbark as a recreational park in the near future by order of the county court. This body will dedicate for public use a county-owned tract just one and one-half miles west of Reston on the old Coos Bay wagon road. Specifically it is that part of the southeast quarter of tha northwest quarter located south of tha California- Oregon Power Co. holdings The heavily wooded acreage with sparkling streams and springs will be dedicated to the 71-year-old iudee who has for almost ten years devoted himself wholeheartedly to the county service. Few people realize the heavy burden and tremendous responsi bility the little man with the ever present smile had to face when he was pulled off his fruit and vegetable tarm some ten years ago. Beside the various duties heaped on his shoulders as county judge he is chairman of the board of commissioners, pronaie omcer, juvenile judge, member of the county welfare commission, and the man who handles insane com mitments. Judge Busenbark was born March 5, 1880 in Wichita Kans. When he was 30 years old, he and his family came to Roseburg and settled in the Melrose district and have been there since. Before the judgeship he was an energetic farmer and fruit grower. This is the occupation to which he hopes to return upon retirement from office. In 1940, the war crisis was be coming grave so the then county judge, Morris Bowker, was called into the service. With three years and eight months to go on the term, Judge Busenbark took over the reins. In 1944 he ran and was elected in his own right for the full six-year term. The order establishing the rec reational park in his name in cluded a citation which sums up an exemplary career of public service. It reads: "It appears to the court that Dave Busenbark has honestly, in dustriously and diligently served as county judge of Douglas county and is about to retire, and it is fitting and proper that said park area he designated as the Dave Busenbark park." Mexicans Jailed For Illegal Entry Into U.S. Four Mexican aliens are being held in the county jail for delivery to United States immigration auth orities for illegal entry into this country. They are Jose Aguirre, 3fi; Morrelino Mejia. M: Salvador Aguirre, 38, and Roberto Serda 18. The four men were picked up by the slate police and sentenced in the justice court to serve IS days each in the county iail on charges of vagrancy according to Justice of Peace A. J. Geddes. This sentence will be waived how ever, since immigration officials will pick up the Mexicans tomor row, reported the Roseburg office of the state police. T8-50 in North Korea. Photo below is PARK Dad Drills Holes In Son's Chest D ANBURY, Conn. (IP) The life of little Joey Korczynski, whose father yesterday admitted boring two holes in his chest with a drill press, hung in the balance today at Danbury hospital. Surgeons said the 3-lGth-inch bit had narrowly missed the four-and-a-half year old boy's heart, and his condition was listed as "extremely critical." . When he regained consciousness in an oxygen tent after an emer gency operation last night, nurses said, the youngster tossed rest lessly and sobbed: I want my daddy. 1 want my daddy." His father. Joseph Korczynski Sr.. 38. wasn't there. Police had taken him to the county jail at Bridgeport, 20 miles away, to a wait trial on a charge ot assault with intent to murder. At a pre liminary hearing he was ordered held without bail. State police found Joey pinned by the bit to the bed of a drill press in a garage at fox Hill Inn, a fashionable resort hotel in Ridge field. There were two wounds in his chest and a third in his back, possibly where the drill had emer ged. When Korczynski was first brought to the state police bar racks, Sergt. Louis Marcnese said, he was "obviously crazed" and unable to talk rationally. Baby, Great-Grandmother Die As Fire Razes Home SALEM 1!)

He made it plain to a news con erence that he felt he had not been dealt with fairly. As to what he intends to do. he said he would have a statement later. He refused to indicate wuether he plans seizure. The unions have been urging this step for weeks. Mr. Truman said the strike was sudden and unexpected. He said assurances came to him from both the unions and the management that there would be no walkout. These assurances, he said, were given within an hour before the strike was called by the trainmen and conductors. Membership of the two unions totals 300,000. They set the wa'.kout for 6 a.m. (local standard time) nex Mon day. A union spokesman had this comment on President Truman's remarks: "We would ask that it be noted the strike has been set far enough in advance to provide opportunity to clear this thing up, if the Presi dent cares to call in the presidents of these roads in place of the (management) committee which has been stalling all these months. "Secondly, if th President de. cides he will seize the railroads, the two presidents of the unions are remaining in Washington to cooperate in any way possible." The nationwide strike call against 131 rail lines was unex pected. The union leaders only Tuesday night had given every one to understnd they would not expand five-day "token" walkouts presently in progress at five key rail centers. However, the dispute over wages and working hours has dragged out over a period of a year and a half and constantly been grow ing more ominous. Under the railway labor act, which sets up a complex proce dure for handling of rail disputes, the unions have been free to strike since July 15. A strike of all railroads in Can ada is now in its fourth day, ao if the threatened walkout develops in this country all rail transporta tion in the United States will be at a standstill. Strike Outlawing Asked The threatened nationwide rail strike brought a demand from Sen ator Donnell (R-Mo) for "imme diate favorable action" on his bill, pending in the senate labor com mittee, to outlaw all rail strikes and require rail labor disputes to be arbitrated. "The interests of the public are paramount and overshadow the interests of either the employers or the employes of our nation's railway system," Donnell said. The dispute with the trainmen and conductors has been going on since March 1949. The unions asked a 40-hour week with the same pay as now received from a 48-hour week for men in yard service, plus a pay boost for work ers in train service. An emergency board named by Mr' Truman turned down the re quested pay boost for train serv ice men and recommended the 40 hour week plus an 18-cent hourly increased for yard service men. The unions said the train service men should have gotten something and the yard service men a 31-cent hike. The carriers stood pat on tha emergency board's recommenda tions. The unions held out for their full demands. Rosenbergs Deny Guilt In Atom Spying Case NEW YORK-P)-Julius Rosen berg and his wife, Ethel, pleaded innocent Wednesday to charges of conspiracy to commit espionage in the Klaus Fuclis atom spy ring. The government charges that Rosenberg, 32, helped recruit his wife's brother, David Greenglass, 28, as a source of secret informa tion that was turned over to Harry Gold. Greenglass was stationed at the Los Alamos atom bomb center in 1945 as an army specialist. Gold, a Philadelphia chemist, has pleaded guilty to spy charges. Federal Judge T. Hoyt Davis re fused to reduce the $100,000 bail.
