Russians Accuse
Petrov Of Theft
Of Embassy Funds
CANBERRA, Australia 0-The
Soviet Embassy accused its fugi
tive third secretary, Vladimir Pet
rov, of stealing 'large lumi" of
embassy funds by forgery today
and demanded Uiat Australia band
him over as a criminal.
In a note to the Australian gov
ernment, the embassy said Pet-
rov's story of a widespread Soviet
spy plot in this country was with
out foundation and the mass of
"espior.ige" documents he had
given Australian authorities might
be forgeries.
Petrov turned himself over to
the Australian government early
in April and was granted political
asylum. Parliament authorized a
royal commission to investigate
bis story of large-scale Soviet spy
ing and the large mass of data he
brought with him from the em
bassy, but Prime Minister Robert
a. Mennes said top security oni
cials , were convinced bis account
was authentic.
The Soviet Embassy made pub
lic an "unofficial translation'' of
its note to the Australians.

More Chipping
Of Windshields
Now Reported
CLEVELAND If) More and
more persons were chipping in
with theories but the reason auto
mobile windshields suddenly de
veloped dimples still was a mys
tery Wednesday.
Two-hundred new pock-marked
windshields have been reported
here to add to the thousands pre
viously reported throughout the
country.
Explanations ranged from van
dalism to radioactivity and from
gnt to gremlins, borne even
thought it really wasn t happening.
But nobody seemed sure.
One theory that radioactivity
caused the chips, dents, scratches,
or wnaiever uiey are apparently
was eliminated last week when
Navy officials ruled out the possi
bility. But Tuesday a scientist at An-
uocn uouege in Yellow springs,
Ohio, said he found radioactive
mattrial in dirt samples taken
from tops of cars whose wind
shields were mysteriously pock
marked. The scientist, who asked
to remain anonymous, binted the
radioactive particles had some
thing to do with the dimples.
After every A or H-bomb test,
he said, there may be measurable
traces of "fall out."
In Cleveland, Stanley Cervenka,
president of the B si B Glass Co.,
an automobile glass firm, blamed
loose slag and gravel. He said:
"It has to be either slag or
gravel. If it wss something in the
air, it would have killed us and
all vegetation long ago."

Mrs. Roosevelt
Rejects Settlement
LOS ANGELES ( - James
Roosevelt's estranged wife Rom-

of s divorce ana nait nis property.
"Just a publicity stunt" was the
way she described her husband's
proposal to avert trial of a separ
ate maintenance action in which
she makes sensational charges of
infidelity.
Roosevelt is seeking the Demo
cratic congressional nomination in
the 26th California District at the
June S primary. His lstest pro
posal in his domestic controversy
drew this comment from Arthur
E. Schifferman, Mrs. Roosevelt's
attorney:
"Apparently Mr. Roosevelt pre
fers to make emotional appeals to
public opinion rather than to leave
this matter for judicial determin
ation."
Schiffman also said Roosevelt's
offer "is designed to sttempt to
prejudice the court and to arouse
auoiic opinion ana sympathy in
lr. Roosevelt's behalf."

Baby Reunited
With Mother
After Kidnaping
NASHVILLE, Tenn. HI - A
bsby girl cooed contentedly in her
crib Wednesday unaware of the
role she played In a tragic drama
that saw her kidnaped by a baby
sitter April 13. given away here
and finally reunited witn Ber tear
ful mother.
"She is mine. I'd know my own
daughter anywhere." cried Mrs.
Billie Marie Kemplan of Newport,
Ky., her voice choking, as she
reached for the child at the home
of Mr, and Mrs. Lloyd Duff of
Honenwald. Tenn.
Across the room, the Duffs,
childless couple, watched silently
as Mrs. Kemplan cuddled the 3-
monin-oicl girl they baa arranged
only last Friday to adopt.
They had been given the child
at a Nashville hotel restaurant
last Wednesday, just a day after
Jane Marie Kemplan was taken
claiming to be the baby's mother.
She identified herself (o the Duffs
as Betty Dorris Miller, 36, of Enid,
Ok!a.
Mrs. Kemplan identified the
baby sitter who took her babv as
Betty Dorris Eglee In a warrant
charging her with "detaining" the
child.
At Memphis, FBI agent Charles
E. Weeks said a federal complaint
probably would be filed at Louis
ville, Ky., chargine Bertha Carter
alias Betty Doris Eglee, with vio
lation of the federal kidnaping
statute. It was thought, agents
said, that she was the same wom
an who gave the baby to the Duffs.
Soviets Announce Huge
Budget For Home Defense
MOSCOW The Soviet govern
ment announced the biggest budg
et in its history tonight for 1954.
It includes 100,300,000.000 rubles
17.8 per cent for national defense.
(The Soviets set an arbitrary ex
change rate of four rubles to the
dollar. That would make the allot
ment for the armed forces $25,
075,000,000.)
The record budget estimated to
tal revenue during the year at
571,800,000,000 rub.es ($142,950,000
000) and expenditures at 562.700,
000,000 $140,675,000,000, roviding
an anticipated surplus of 9,100,000
000 rubles.
Western observers in Mowcow
pointed out that it was difficult
to understand the Soviet Union's
defense appropriations. For one
tiling, the state owns and runs
the entire economy, fixing its own
prices on sny equipment needed
for the armed forces. 1

School Growth
Traced At W-D
Kiwanis Meeting
Willism Brumley. superintendent
of school district 116, this week
traced the last 10 years of school
growth in the area south of Rose
burg at the Winston Dillard Ki
wanis Club Meeting.
Speaking at the Melody Inn,
Bromley related that the most
startling change has come in the
number of districts involved. Ten
years ago, no less than 10 districts
were extant in the area. The big
gest was Lookingglass with four
paid instructors. By 1649-50, that
number had been cut to five dis
tricts. Dillard, with -362 students
and 10 teachers, was the biggest
at this point.
With more consolidations, the
sprawling district 116 has increas
ed from 449 to almost 1,700 young
sters. The elementary population
has jumped from 240 to the pre
sent 961. Next yesr, the district
will have 61 certified personnel.
Assessed valuation in the past
decade has more than doubled. It
was then $2,183,000. Now it has
spiraled up to $5,743,000. Under
the consolidated program, the dis
trict plant contains three element
ary schools and a high school.
Thirteen buses cover about 850
miies per day carrying youngsters
to and from school.
Reflecging the sprawling charac
ter of the district, it contains about
:.i0 square miles. It's southermo.'.t
boundary is just a half-mile from
Nickel Mountain. To the west, it
borders the Coos Bay district. It
reaches east to the Roberts Creek
School District and north to Conn
rioliow. three miles south of Dil
lard. The Kiwanis will meet again
next Monday at 6:15 in the Melody
Inn to hear State Sen. Paul Geddes
of Roseburg speak.
