2 The Newi-Review, Raieburg, Ore Friday, Aug. 8, 1952 Flying Objects Seen By Loggers Flying "somethings" have come to the South Umpqua. Loggers James Van Camp, Idle yld, and Victor Rosemeycr, Wil bur, reported seeing "something in the shape of a 50-gallon gaso line drum, red hot, with a trail of sparks behind it" flying west about 3,000 to 4,000 feet over the South Umpqua Kivcr Thursday morning. : The loggers had just arrived on the Sunset Losging Co. operatiins en top of a hill about a mile west of Myrtle Creek, they said. Van Camp happened to look up, saw the object, and pointed it out to Kosemcyer. "I didn't have anymore than time to look at it," said Roscmcy r. Van Camp said it was "going right straight" and "traveling at a speed out of reason." The two said they saw the object about 5:40 a.m., before the sun was up. The night before, Van Camp said he and his family had been reading an article in Readers Di gest about flying saucers. Ho was quite skeptical. "I'll believe anything now," he exclaimed Thursday afternoon. CONVICT TAKES WALK SALEM OH Police and state prison authorities Friday hunted Alfred Nielson, 24, who walked away from a prison bean picking crew near Salem Thursday. He was serving an eight year-scntencc from Lane County for a statutory offense. School Cash-Handling System It Chonged A new cash-handling policy has been approved for the Roseburj District 4 school system, The new plan eliminates the use of revolving funds, whereby of ficials in each school or depart ment use money they take in to purchase supplies, without check ing with any central authority. Now, all money received In the schools for woodworking charges, for instance will have to go into the District's central business of fice. Then, any supplies the indi vidual schools, departments or of ficials need, will have to be requisl tioned from this central office. However, each principal's of fice and administrative depart ment will have a petty cash fund for small purchases, such as papei clips, scotch tape and the like. It is hoped that this new system will center responsibility and gain control formerly found lacking, says M. C, Deller, school super intendent.

Ik Mulls Fortign Policy There was major activity In the Denver headquarters of Republi can presidential candidate Dwiglit D. Kiscnhower: The general, his running mate Sen. Richard M. Nixon, and John Foster Dulles, the party's interna tional affairs expert, met to map campaisn strategy on foreig.i policy issues. Out of the session may come a decision on just how hard Kiscn hower will strike out against the foreign policy of the Truman ad ministration a policy he helped carry nut as European defense commander. Eisenhower has not said publicly how he feels about President Tru man's deicision to send troops ,o Korea without prior Congressional Myrtle Creek third.

The assessor's office presented the following hypothetical exam ple: The difference In tax per $1,000 valuation would be $1.90 greater in Roseburg than In Riverside. Thus a new house, costing $10,000 and normally assessed at $2,000 would cost $142 in taxes in Rose burg, $138.20 in Riverside a difference of $3.80. In Roseburg the Insurance rates are 35 cents per $100 and in Riv erside the figure is 40 cents per $100. Thus on a $10, 000 house insured at $8,00(1, the insurance would cost $4 greater in Rivsrsid? which is more than the tax saving by 20 cents. may let fly against Truman's Far East policy in general.

Remodeling Of Furniture Store Front Starts Here ' A 120.000 remodeling prolect on Carstens Furniture Co., 117 W. Cass St., was underway today and scheduled to be completed by Aug. 30 to present 1 modernistic new front Jn time for the Umpqua Cavalcade. An all glass and aluminum front and complete renovation in side the store has started on the 55-year-old structure. Balconies inside the store will be extended to the front to pro vide about a 1,000 square feet more of display space. The decorative front and re ar rangement of the interior has been designed to present a more attractive background to display furniture, said Henry T. Carstens, operator of the store. Other members of the firm are Carstens' wife, Flosse O. Carstens, and their son, William A. Car stens. S.rong color tones will be em phasized in the store and the re arrangement will include placing the storage area on the norlhside of the store to give it 1 deeper appearance. "We're going lo provide a nice modern furniture store in keeping with the high quality lines of furn iture we handle," said Carstens. The store front will have indi rect lighting for the spacious dis play windows. The structure was once the old Rice & Rice General Store. Later it was taken over by A. J. Lit burn & Sons who sold it to Mc Kean, Darby and Baldwin. It was McKean and Baldwin until Car stens bought half interest in 1941. Later the Carstens firm purchase ed the whole property. YMCA Leader Tells Rotarians Of Fears Of Inflationary Spiral "You never had it so good," Clarence Ernst of Yakima, Wash., told members of the Roseburg Rotary Club at a luncheon meet ing Thursday in the Umpqua Ho tel. Ernst, general secretary of the Yakima YMCA for 29 years, told his recent tour through the east ern states and the general con cern of businessmen over infla tion although they admitted busi ness was better than ever. "There's a general feeling of unrest among businessmen al though the nation is prosperous," he said. "They apparently feel we are living on a shaky economic basis." The whole reason for this un rest, he said, stems from an out growth of our individual ideas. "Too many people blame this unrest and graft and corruption on the government on somebody else." he asserted. "It s each in dividual who is responsible for this present situation. After all, we are the government. We, ourselves, are to blame." He told of a man visiting Paris who bought a meal for seven francs a few years ago. "Several weeks ago he ordered the same meal." Ernst said. "It cost him 3,000 francs now. An in flationary spiral like this is the bogev of most business leaders in our country." Rodney Nevue was program chairman. The speaker was intro duced by Merlin Donaldson, sec retary of the Roseburg YMCA. LOCAL NEWS Leaves For Service Barton (Bob) Feldkamp, son of Mr. and Mrs. O. J.
