Phone 3-3222 Peace Gains Threatened By GOP, Stevenson Says (Continued frm Page One.) assistance programs the Kemlin can change its signals quickly. ' "We all know in our bones that it Is dangerous to talk tough un less we are ready to act tough," he declared. "The new Republican policy and I am sorry to lay this Is to talk tough while we si multaneously weaken our defenses and alliances. "That just doesn't make sense to me. That is a lure road to disaster." Stevenson has contended that Eisenhower's call for a 20 billion dollar budget cut would mean a slash in defense funds. Valleys At Old Guard Accusing the Republicans of trying to scrap the bi partisan for eign policy, he sailed into Eisen hower on this point. "What the campaign has clearly brought out is that the Old Guard of the Republican party wants to scrap that bi-partisan foreign poli cy and that their candidate with the new look, the General of the army, has either forsaken his own treat past or become the policy artner of Sen. Taft and some entlemen of similarly eccentric iews about our world," the Dem icratic nominee declared. "Senator Taft and the Old Guard, .if course, have fought our bi-partisan foreign policy right along. They have said that it costs too much, forgetting that however ex pensive peace may be, it will cost as nothing compared to a new world war." On the other hand, Stevenson said he thinks the Democratic ad ministration's policies have been "mightily successful." "They have rallied and united the free world and have checked the spread of Communism," he declared. "If we stick with these policies, I deeply believe we shall avert a third world war." Greeted By Big Crowds St. Louis gave the Illinois gover nor a whopping send-off at a night meeting where Police Chief Jere miah O'Connell estimated 13,000 persons crowded into a 10,800 seat hall, 3.500 more sat in an adjoin ing auditorium and 3.500 heard his address outside the hall. This total compared with 11,500 who assembled in the same audi torium recently to hear Eisenhow er and "several thousand" which police said were turned away when the doors were closed. Despite the fact that his talk obviously was aimed at the larger television and radio audience and, in his own words was "not a pour-it-on speech," the crowd Interrupt ed the Democratic 1 nominee with applause 38 times. Some even rang cowbells. I Army Desertion, Theft Of Auto Charges Faced Vernon R.

Phone 3-5491 Opportunities For Douglas Jobs Show Decrease Job opportunities in Douglas County as of Oct. 1 were fewer in number than at any time since last March, reports George Foster, manager of the Roseburg office of the Oregon State Em ployment Service. Closing of the woods during the latter part of September, because of the Tire hazard, resulted in a large drop in employment, Fos ter states. Some woods workers were absorbed in sawmill and oth er types of work, but others will be unemployed until rains reduce logging hazards. Foster reports 87 job openings on hand at the first of the month, with approximately 42 per cent in trade and service classifications. Shortages also existed in skilled and clerical occupations. Claims for unemployment insur ance benefits increased over the month of August. These claims re sulted directly from closure of the woods.

A new basement entrance will be constructed on the north sid. Complete air conditioning for the basement will be installed. Ramberg stated that Norman Hoffman, Portland architect, has been employed to design the re modeling and to draft plans and specifications. He will advertise for bids as soon as exact plans have been approved by the hotel management. This is expected very shortly. . ' The stairway in the main lobby is already being changed, to make way for extension of the offices. The civic room will not be chang ed, and will continue to be used for civic club meeting purposes, as it is already large enough for such use. said Ramberg. The hotel kitchen is to be reduc ed in size, but modernized for more efficient use. This will permit en largement of the coffee shop west ward. After this portion of the work is completed, the front of the hotel is to be altered and a third banquet room will be pro vided along the east portion of the coffee shop. The entire front of the hotel will be given a face lifting, with alter ation of the hotel entrance. The lobby is also to be rennovated. The construction plans, said Ramberg, will be carried out a bit slower than it could otherwise be done, so as to cause as little as possible confusion to the normal operation of the hotel. Ramberg, who with Asa Arns berg, Portland, took over owner ship of the hotel last May from J. A. Harding, expressed faith in Roseburg's future business pros pects. He said this city is the hub of this part of Oregon, and be cause of its central location can attract large gatherings and con ventions. He said the business war ranted expansion. Ramberg, has purchased a home at 1228 Madrone Ave., and recent ly moved with his family from their quarters in the hotel. Phone 3-5553 in Spuns & Crepes Sizes 9-52 lb. 16 - 20 a Customer
