U.S. Bans Travel
In Red Countries
WASHINGTON The State
Department Thursday banned
American travel in five Iron Cur
tain countries without specific per
mission. 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."
Authorities said privately there
are two basic reasons for the re
strictions: 1. To prevent "sneak visits."
2. To protect venturesome Amer
icans who might not realize the
risk of visit to Iron Curtain coun

HOT DOG That's what these Camp Fire G iris are thinking as they demonstrate the
proper procedure' for roasting a hot dog over the open campfire. The trick is to keep from
getting it burned to a crisD on one side and raw on the other, but in any event the recipe
of hot dogs, mustard and the great outdoors sounds tempting. The girls are, from left,

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

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.
