The accusation waa mado by
Hossein Fateml while enroute

sadegh, after unsuccessful efforts
to settle the Iranian British oil
dispute.
Dr. Fateml told newsmen that
Churchill "thinks with hit Intri
gues and Inner pressures in Iran"
he can stop that nation's oil na
tionalization program.
"It is a grave mistake, the vice
premier declared. "Iran will con
tinue fighting to gain its rightt
and will never tire."

Intrigues are aimed at bringing

contrary to the wishes of the
people."

such grants are collected - in the
form ol taxes Irom the bard-work'
ing American people."

Would Be Killer
Appeals For Life
WASHINGTON UP) Oscar
Collazo mates a new bid today
to escape execution for his role in
a fantastic attempt last year to
assassinate President Truman.
The U. S. court of appeals called
for arguments on the appeal of
uie 4f-year-oia ruerio mean na
tionalist from his conviction and
death sentence for the slaying of
a White House policeman.
The task of trying to convince
the appeals court that Collazo't
conviction should be set aside and
a new trial ordered fell to Leo A.
Rover, a one-time U. S, attorney
here.
Rover, serving under a court ap
pointment, it representing Collazo
without compensation.
One of Rover's chief contentions
is that the trial judge, the late T.
Alan Goldsborough, erred in not
instructing the jury to consider
Lollazo s version ot wnat he and a
companion had in mind when they
went to the Blair house the after
noon of Nov. 1, 1950.
Collazo testified at his trial that
neither he nor hit fellow conspira
tor, Griselio Torresola, intended to
kill the President or anyone else
when they opened fire on White
House guards as Mr. Truman
napped Inside Blair house.

Sketch Given
The subject of the sketch, the
Hon. Beman B. Brockway, w a t
born in Chataqua county. New
York, Feb. 12, 1829, remaining in
the place of hit birth and under
the parental roof until attaining
the age of 22 yean. Brockway
then concluded to aeek hit fortune
in the golden west, and conse
quently on April 23, 1852, he
started from hit home in com
pany with his brother, Burban,
and came to Napervllle, IU At
this point they secured ox teams
and Joining a large train there, set
out to cross the plains to the Web-
foot state, arriving in Josephine
county some six month later. Our
subject then embarked in mining
in the above county and Jackson
for about eight years, He, then, in
istsu, gave up uie occupation ot
miner, and concluded to become
a tiller of the soil, and selected
Douglas county as his future home,
and at that time purchased his
present valuable farm, consisting
oi 4uu acres, located in tne civil
Bnd district, on which he ha.,
built a handsome residence aiu
made many valuable improve-I
ments. Dnuglat county has twice
been honored by the service of i
urocKway in an oniciai capacity.
First at a county commissioner,
and at the June election of 1880,
he was elected to the state legis
lature aa representative of Doug
las county, a position he filled I
with the utmost satisfaction to his
constituents." I
The history book, an old and
yellowed volume of which some,
five in all are known to be in
current circulation, also carries a
picture of the house to which the
the biographical sketch refers. i
Purchased In 1910 I
In 1910 the late S. A. Roser
purchased the property from
Brockway and moved his family i
there to reside. There, Mrs. Roser
recalls, their two youngest chil
dren, Walter and Helen (Mrs. !
"Red" Peterson) were born. Also,
it was the scene of the two home :
weddings of her daughtra. Mrs. 1
Laurance Hercher and Mrs. Merle :
Austin. In all those years the house
was never altered, she com-.
mented. Six rooms in Its entirety, I
the building appeared much larger j
because of the high 12-foot ceil
ings, an idea brought here by an
English architect. It was then sur
rounded by giant cypress and pop
lar trees, most of which have died
now.
The Rosen, after living In the '
house tome 30 years, told it to
Jim Laurance in October of 1938.
The current ownert purchased it
from Laurance several years later.
"The hill looks bare today," a
gioneer was heard to remark
unday. "It's tort of sad to see an
old house go kind of like people,
who do their part and then move
on. . ."
Red Agents Suspected,
Turkey Closes Border
ANKARA. Turkey Wl The
foreign office revealed last night
that Turkey closed her border with
Bulgaria a week ago because sus
pected Red agents were being
sneaked across the line. Bulgaria
hat protested the action, a n-nounced-
in a Turkish note.
The frontier was sealed when
reports spread that Communists,
many equipped with radio trans
mitters, wer- being slipped into
Turkey. One . port said the sus-
Sected agents were disguised as
loslenis of Turkish descent. Many
such persons recently have been
transferred to Turkey.
In reply to Bulgaria's protest,
Turkey said that should "the mo
tives which made this decision nec
essary disappear, the decision
could be revoked."
