OREGON FRIDAY, JUNE Archbishop Groesz Pleads Guilty To Plot Full Confession Voiced Of Intent To Overthrow Communist Government BUDAPEST, Hungary WPI Archbishop Joszef broesz. cardinal Mindszenty'a successor as head of ine noman latnoiic cnurcn in nun- ling the overthrow of his nation's Communist government. For an hour he poured a full confession into courtroom microphones. The archbishop and eight other defendants went on trial before Judge Vilmos Olti, who sent Car- "iM,! ,0 P"'0" " 'i"!!" mi vuai gca in kiik aaiuc vuuiiiuuu,. He also sentenced American busi nessman Robert A. Vogeler to 14 years imprisonment on spy charges. (Thus, the west faces the puzzle of another in the long scries of 'confessions" by defendants Communist courts. Some believe these confessions are extracted by physical torture or through the use of drugs. Others think they are obtained simply by constant and skillful questioning over long hours without food and sleep. Vogeler, released recently, branded his con fession "rubbish." He said he waa worn down physically and ment ally. (Defendants in Communist trials disappear from public view from the time of their arrest until they appear before their judges. Ke porters and triends are oarreo from talking with them. They are not allowed lawyers of their own choice and those assigned custom arily reinforce their clienta con fessions by adding to them.) Pope's Letter Introduced Groesz' confession was delivered in cool, collected tones, and in cluded full admissions that he had plotted the overthrow of the Com munist government. He linked American diplomats to his state ments and a letter was introduced in which Pope Pius XII was pic tured as urging the archbishop to resist the regime. Eight other defendants are still to plead. Five are charged with having led the plot to overthrow the state; two others with partici pating in the plot One defendant is accused of murder. The charges also include spying on behalf of an "imperialist power," obviously meaning the United States, and black market currency dealings. NEW DA NAMED SALEM (P) Paul W.

Ruby Wright, of Rt. 4, Looking- glass, Thursday gave a pint of blood and brought her total amount of donated blood to six gallons. Much of this waa donated while she waa a member of the Canadian Women's army corpa during World War II. Harold E. Srhmeer, manager of the U. S. National bank, donated the last pint on his second gallon oi Diooo 1 nursaay Mrs. Albert Micelli, chairman of the blood donation campaign, aaid. "we very deeply appreciate all the help everyone has given us." She sent special thanks to Bob McCarl, of atation KRNR, for radio publicity on the campaign. The quota, at one time thought to be 200 pints, waa later reduced to 150 pints. Most of the blood given here will be flown directly to Korea from Portland, partic ularly type "O" blood which is the most common type. Some of the blond will be stored in the Portland blood bank for use in the state including use in Douglas county hospitals, Mrs. Micelli said. The bloodmobile will be in Yon calla next month and is expected to return to Roseburg sometime in August.

(Paul I Jenkins I w' Stressed President Truman offers opponents of compulsory med a better proposal or even "skyrocketing medical costs difrent lass," The President spoke of the lay ing of the cornerstone of the $40. 000.000 National Institutes of Health clinical center in this sub urb of Washington. Declaring that the "noble pur pose" of the center was to save lives and prevent auffering, Mr. Truman attacked "totalitarian dic tatorships" under which, heAjaid: "People are herded into alave labor camps by the millions, and allowed to die like flies from star-1 vation, or disease, or hardship." The President reviewed his un successful efforts since IMS to per suade Congress to pass a national health insurance plan which would provide payroll taxes similar to the present social security with holdings for payment of medical bills. 'The American Medical associa tion has led a long, bitter fight against the proposal, declaring that it would be a first step toward "socialized medicine." Proponents of the plan deny this. The dedicated building will he a combination laboratory and 500 bed public health service hospital specislizing in research and treat ment of cancer, heart disease, mental illness, diabetes and other chronic diseasea.

Private Insurence Net Enough Mr. Trumsn applsuded the Sen ate for passing legislation to ex pand and atrengthen city and county public health unite and ex pressed hope of quick House ap proval. And he urged early passage by both houses of a pending bill pro viding federal aid to enable medi cal schools to turn out an increas ing supply of doctors and nurses to relieve a critical shortage accen tuated by the government of medi cal people to Korea. He said lie was "very glad" to see the rapid growth of private health insurance plans "but the plain fact ia that they do not meet the problem." he added "They are not reaching the over whelming majority of low and mm die income families. "Lese than four million Ameri cans hsve reasonably complete medical care insursnce. and 75 mil lion have no health insursnce at all.1 State Board Gives Promise At Meet Here Chamber Of Commerce Okays Rerouting Plan But Asks Alterations State Highway Commission Chairman Ben R.
