In The Day's News By FRANK JENKINS Stark tragedy in the news: Mrs. Donald Pulien (aged 28) of Portland was killed the other night on the upper Columbia highway when a rock plunged down a hill side and was struck by the car in which she was riding with her husband and their two children. The husband who escaped, along with the children, with bad bruises said he and his wife were singing happily as they rode along the highway to the Pendle ton Round-up. The children were aslero in the back seat. He saw the shadow of the rock coming down the hillside. Before he could check his .peed his car hit the rock, which was nearly two feet in di ameter. it rolled three or four times. When it came to rest, life with all its joys and sorrows was over for the young mother. There is probably no way avoid such hazards of the road. But there are so MANY hazards (Continued On Page 4 Col. 5) The Weather Fair through Thursday except for patches of early morning fog. Cool tonight with patch! of local rost.

Praising teachers and schools generally, the Iowa woman lashed out against popular writers who criticize education. And she found few good words for the parents who believe school is for "good eradt and maldntf mnmmv and no charge: schools, libraries, parks, museums, etc. Such, she continued, were prime examples of why "opportunities are avail able to all (in America) and are free and obvious!' This disproved a hobo theory that the "rich get richer and the poor get poorer," she said. By wanting to become better, by observing others and by learning the worth of the individual. Mrs. Davis grew from child to adult in a world which lo:!ay is her oyster. She believes the school class room, properly conducted, is "a little picture of what all life might be like . . . the life we dream of where all are equal." Using no notes, Mrs. Davis spoke fluently, punctuating her remarks with humorous asides and hand gestures. She took time to laud the American teacher and later paid homage to one long ago who had taken "time out" to show her the social graces as well as the mean ing of the book text. Education, she maintains, includes "equip ping children so they'll know what to do when they face new situ ations.' Mrs. Davis' husband is an As semblies of God minister in Betten dorf, Iowa. The couple have no children. She is a Sunday School field representative for the church. Currently she is appearing before educational groups throughout the nation. Mrs. Davis is a free lance speaker who arranges her own en gagements. Her next stop is Ohio. Nixon Maintains Peace Prospects Brighter Now OMAHA, Neb. ii Prospects for peace are better than Ihey have been al any time since World War II, but it's no occasion for relaxing vigilance. Vice President Richard Nixon said Tuesday night. He told the International Assn. of Kire Chiefs there are three im portant factors leading to his con clusion. He cited the military strength of the free world, t h e potency of atomic weapons which confront a potential aggressor with disaster if his initial attack fails to destroy the ability of his adver sary to strike back, and the fact people "desperately want peace." But he asserted the government is not being lulled into a false sense of security by the recent conciliatory moves of Soviet lead ers, adding the United States and the free world "are strong enough to meet and defeat attack by any potential aggressor."

Carl Hill, Douglas County judge wno neaas the Oregon & Cali fornia Counties Assn., said after ward he was certain the associa? tion would join with the operators in the request. The operators contended at the meeting that the BLM had agreed to allow cutting of some 500 mil lion feet of green timber to make feasible removal of the same amount of timber blown down in a 1931 windstorm. Hill said it was his understand ing that in 1953, the BLM indicated it would waive the marketing agreement which gave coastal area mills access to the timber.
