In three outer countries, no travel at all will be permitted. A department anouncement called attention to "the dangers. of traveling in countries where ac ceptable standards of protection do not prevail." Travel was banned altogether in China, Hungary and Czechoslova kia in a continuation of previous department rulings. The five countries added to the restricted travel list are Russia, Poland, Romania, Albania and Bul garia. The department said It will al low trips to those countries only for "legitimate reasons."

( By Paul Jenkins) Commie Party In U.S. Dropping, Richmond Says Membership in the Communist Parly is slowly decreasing in the United States, but its continuing danger lies primarily in the so called "front" organizations, James G. Richmond, local attor ney, told the Roseburg Chamber of Commerce Monday noon. Richmond has just returned to Roseburg after spending 15 months with the army in the coun ter intelligence corps, the work of which deals largely with investi gation into Communist activities, and served as an agent in Seattle and San Francisco. He referred to Communism as a "vicious, willful conspiracy," to overthrow the constitution of the United States, and substitute a for eign ideology." Communism got its start in the country after the United States recognized Russia in 1932, and after, during what ho termed the "honeymoon with Russia," dur ing the depression 30's, leading up to the Hitler-Stalin pact. Most of Ihe leaders were ob tained during those periods, and many of the members today. But many things have driven the party underground or has decreas ed the membership. These in clude public opinion, Ihe Smith Act, trials of Communists, the Taft-Hartley law, the Hiss case and Canadian spy trials, according to Richmond. Richmond discussed briefly how Communists are traced and list ed. Most of the Communist con verts come through unions and colleges, where front line mem bers are planted for this specific purpose. Most of the converts, he said either are ot an irrational c f mi rtftg emS5rgs5Bas5sr"". Voters Balloting In Ohio, Florida By The Associated Press Voting was heavy in Florida and Ohio Tuesday in primary contests that held a great deal of impor tance for at least three presiden tial hopefuls. In Florida the key contestants were Sens. Kefauver of Tennessee and Russell of Georgia, both seek in? the Democratic nomination for president. And Sen. Taft of Ohio was plug ging for a big vote in his own home state. A poor showing there would crimp Taft's chances for the Republican nomination appreciably A record vote of lVi million was expected in Ohio, where Taft and his lieutenants put on an intensive drive for votes for delegates pledged to his candidacy. The Florida primary was Ke-fauver's- biggest hurdle since he defeated President Truman in New Hampshire. In most other primar ies, in which he was undefeated, he had only token opposition, if any. Florida is the first state in which Russell's name was printed on the ballot. nature, or highly intellectual, i many of them bordering on in- Sanity. Exposure has been the principal i weapon used in this country j against communists. - IVAN EDWARDS 1st Class Construction Contracting or -Time and Material Ph. 3-7493 1251 Harrison "7n i Pilot-OSC Graduate Killed In Plane Crash PORTLAND W) Capt.
