Barkley, who described himself as ' an old firehorse who has neard the bell." told the W4L students he had arrived here uncertain about coins to the Democratic Na tional Convention in Chicago in August but had made up his mind to attend. He said he wouldn't be a candidate for nomination for the presidency. There were cries of "No, no," and when he had quieted the tu mult he said: "I have been in years gone by. But aH fire apparatus is automo tive now and not norse-drawn." Reminiscently, he recalled he'd been a delegate-at-large to every Democratic National Convention since 1920; a junior, then a senior member of Congress; junior senator; a senior senator; majori ty Senate leader; vice president; then junior senator again. "I am willing to be a junior," he said. "I am glad to sit in the back row, for I would gather be a servant in the house of the Lord than to sit in the seats of the mighty." Then he collapsed. Two students on the platform tried to break his fall. The 1,700 people in Doremus gymnasium sat dumbfounded. Gov. Thomas B. Stanley of Virginia, who had Introduced him, grasped Mrs. Barklev's arm and escorted her to the platform. Rep. Burr Harrison tu-vaj auo rusnea ior ward. Boot And Shoutt Creet Chairman Of Democrats (Continued From Pag One) crata complained when the "Raskobs" were making heavy contributions to the Democratic Party. "Th Democratic Party never was the beneficiacy of any vested wealth like this" Butler began to reply. But he was dromned out by a roar of boos from trie audience. He flushed and waited until the demonstration subsided, then said with some sarcasm: "Thank you. fellow Americans. for th right to express myself." Spivak'a allusion was to the late John J. Raskob, financier and in dustrialist who resigned as chair man of the Finance Committee of General Motors Corp. in 1928 to become Democratic national chair man. Raskob, a liberal contribu tor h'miclf, was highly successful In raising money for the party. . ..icii ooid water returned to the fray. The contributions cited by Butler, he said, were voluntary ones, whereas "the money from (Walter) Reuther comes from compulsory dues paid by union membcra who must contribute in order to keep their jobs." (Reuther is head of the United Automobile Workers, and was president of the CIO when the CIO and AFL merged.) "Anybody who saya that Is bit terly and definitely opposed to or ganized labor," Butler cried. Members of the audience shout ed "No, No." But Butler went on to deny that there were any "forced contributions" and defied the Republican speakers to produce proof of their charge if they had Goldwater asked if Butler would "publicly apologize if proof were provided." The Democratic chair man said he "certainly would ad mit it" if shown evidence "but you can't prove it." AT arr MJI J4TOfO. 24-Inch table model. Moheoony grain ftniih.

After two hours of digging Into the St. Nicholas Church tomb of the Walsingham family, they lift ed a heavy marble slab to reveal a few fragments of glazed tile,1 a load of sand and a layer of brick. They holed through the brick and lowered a light revealing only a lead casket below. The gov ernment already had decreed the casket could not be opened. The nroject was the brainchild of Calvin Hoffman, 49-year-old New Yorker. He had hoped to find early 17th century documents to prove his theory that Christopher Marlowe, an Elizabethan poet and dramatist, authored the plays and poems attributed to Shakespeare. Hoffman was adamant, "There are no bodies, no cof fins, and no sarcophagus directly beneath the marble slab," he de clared. "I intend to continue my resflsrehej," Hoffman contends that history hi wrong in saying Marlowe was killed in a Thames River , tavern brawl in 1593. Instead, he theorizes, the poet's patron, Sir . Thomas Walsingham, hid him out to save him from the headman's ax for alleged heresy and substituted an other's body. Then, Hoffman's theory goes, Walsingham hired Shakespeare, a little known London actor-manager, to front as the author of the plays and poems the fugitive turned out in nis niaing piace. If evidence exists. Hoffman rea soned, Sir Thomas took it to the grave. He thought the papers might have been left outside tne casket, underneath the slab. Eastern And Western Railroads Raise Fares WASHINGTON W Eastern and western railroads raised their basic passenger fares by 5 per cent Tuesday. There was a simultaneous 716 per cent hike in Pullman charges throughout tne country. The southern railroads are scheduled to make a similar 5 per cent increase in their basic pas senger fares May 15. The Interstate Commerce Com mission late Monday approved the increase in interstate passenger rates west ot the Mississippi Riv er and north of, the Ohio and Po tomac rivers, plus West Virginia and most of Virginia. The commission said multi-mil lion dollar deficits which the rail roads nave been incurring in pas senger operations since World War II demonstrated a need for additional revenue. The east-west nasseneer fare boost is expected to yield about another 27 million dollars a year. The Pullman fare increases, ap proved last Friday, will produce an additional $6,800,000 a year. Salem Services Set For Duncan McLean Funeral services are scheduled Thursday at 10:30 a.m. at Virgil Golden Mortuary, Salem, for Dun can McLean of Salem, father of Duncan McLean Jr. of Roseburg. Mr. McLean, well-known in this area, died Saturday afternoon of a heart attack, according to jvord received here. Tire Co. Xs w May Day Heralded With Traditional Parades, Speeches By THI ASSOC I AT it) PRISt Workers outside the United States, Communist and anti-Communist, heralded May Day with traditional parades and speeches today. Moscow, Peiping, Tokyo and Rome were sites of some of the larger celebrations. In the new observance this year in Rome, thousanda of Roman Catholic workers gathered to mark the Liturgical Feast of St. Joseph, the carpenter of Nazareth. Leaders of Italy's Communist party the biggest outside the Iron Curtain called their own nationwide observance in Rome's Piazza del Popolo (People'i Square), a little more than a mile from St. Peter's Square. There also was something' new in Moscow this May Day. Holiday decorations failed to display any pictures of the late Joseph Stalin in the spots they used to dominate. There were some large portraits of Lenin in prominent places, but the most common decorations were pictures of the 11-man Presi dium, featuring Premier Bulganin and Communist party chief Nikita Khrushchev. This is in line with the new Communist emphasis on collective leadership. Berlin Communists plastered the Western sector of that divided city with handbills and posters urging workers to join in the parade in the Communist zone. The parade was officially boycotted by West Ber lin unions. East Berlin's celebration was to Include the first units of the newly organized East German Army, sworn in yesterday with So viet oDservers on nana. Tokyo's tree bordered Meija Plaza was jammed by an estimat ed half million workers. Speakers denounced Japan's Conservative government and voiced demands for peace, democracy, better pay, and atomic energy for peaceful purposes. The celebration was notable for its concentration on bread and but ter issues. Anti-American slogans ana placards were almost nonex istent. Most Americans stayed away from the festivities, remembering the 1952 May Day riots when some foreigners were roughed up. West Coast To Buy Propjet Transports West Coast Airlines, which serves Roseburg, announced it will exer cise its option to purchase at least four of America's first twin prop jet transports, the Fairchild F-27, and requested an option on four more of the high-wing tricycle-gear "Friendships." The announcement came upon return from Amsterdam, Holland, of a party of four WCA officials, headed bv Nick Bel. nrcsident. West Cost thus would become the first of the nation a local serv ice airlines to fly the 40-passen- ger turboprop transport which Fairchild will manufacture under license from Royal Netherlands Aircraft t actories FOKKer, Amster dam. The F-27 is generally regarded as a leading contender for replace ment of Douglas DC-3's flown by the local service lines. Late last year, WCA was the first to an nounce that It had purchased an option on the F-27's to be built by Fairchild at Hagerstown, Md., for delivery starting in late 1057 or early 1058. West Coast Airlines operates 14 DC-3's over 2,200 route miles, serv ing 44 cities in Washington, Ore gon and Idaho. Cula N. Crowed Dies In Eugene Gula N. Crowel. wife of William Crowell, prominent Sutherlin real estate man, died at a Eugene clin ic early Tuesday.

District Attorney Vnn Protestt Jury Dismissal EUGENE CP Discharge of a grand jury which was expected to hear evidence in an embezzlement inquiry was protested Monday by Dist. Atty. Eugene Venn. He said Circuit Judge Frank B. Reid discharged the grand jury and appointed a new one to hear the case. Venn said this was "highly unusual." Moses Moody, convict serving a state prison term for a market robbery, is the main figure in the case. He was reported to have been the victim of an embezzle ment conspiracy, although details of the case have not been dis closed. Moody was placed in t special cell at the prison last weekend after Ed Elder, Lane County sher iff, reported he had information that Moody was in danger of physical harm. TO BE DEPENDABLE 3 Gfjapel trf ilje rm ROSEIURS FUNERAL HOME FUNERALS Phone ORchard 3-4455 Oak and Kane St. Roseburg, Oregon Adequate Free Parking COP To Press For Soil Bank Farm Program WASHINGTON W President Eisenhower and Republican con gressional leaders agreed Tuesday to continue to press for approval of a soil bank program which would permit payment of about a half billion dollars to farmer this year. Rep. Halleck of Indiana, House GOP floor leader, reported the de cision to newsmen after he and other Republican chiefs concluded their regular weekly meeting with the President. - The House Agriculture Commit tee Monday approved a bill pro viding for a soil bank, as request ed by the President, but the com mittee turned thumbs down on an administration proposal calling for a half billion dollars in advance payments this year to participat ing farmers. Eisenhower made that proposal recently in vetoeing an omnibus farm bill, mainly on the grounds that it would restore high, rigid price support of basic farm com modities. In vetoing that measure as -a bad bill, Eisenhower asked Con gress to enact separate legisla tion authorizing creation of a soil bank designed to reduce crop surpluses. Meanwhile, House leaders de cided tentatively today to bring the farm bill to the floor late Wednesday, with a vote probable on Thursday. Harry Truman Pays Tribute To Alben Barkley HURON, S.D. un Former Pres ident Harry Truman was informed of his Veep's death yesterday just as he finished riding in a parade in Truman's honor. A radio man informed him that former Vice President Alben Barkley had died. Truman was here for a fund-raising drive for the Truman Memorial Library, In dependence, Mo. ' Truman told an audience of about 2,500 people: "I knew him before he went to the Senate." He said Barkley had been to Missouri to help the Democratic party and "he knew how to do it. "He was one of the greatest vice presidents that ever occupied that chair. "The reason was that he knew all of the senators, all o' the mem bers of the House and all of their wives and friends their short comings and their qualities.' Truman said he was always in vited to sit in on Cabinet meet ings. "Mr. Barkley always said what he thought," Truman said. "I am sorry as I can be that the end has come to a great man." He said Barkley died doing the ?eople a service. "That's the way hope I can go," Truman added. Gov. Lee Issues Challenge On Tax SALT LAKE CITY I Gov. J. Bracken Lee challenged the fed eral government Tuesday to carry into the courts its effort to collect tax on his 1955 income. The Internal Revenue Service filed a lien of $1,203.10 against Lee Monday. The lien was filed in re corder' offices in Salt Lake and Carbon counties. It was attached to bank accounts and property owned by Lee and his wife, Mar garet. Lee, a Kepuoucan, tola me in ternal Revenue Service when he filed his 1955 income tax return last January that he was not en closing payment of tax due on a portion ot nis income, tie saia ne was withholding the payment in an effort to fore a court test of the legality of using income tax revenue to finance the nation's foreign aid program. Filing of the liens does not take the question before the courts. Lee said, however, he might ask a court for an injunction to prevent the Internal Revenue Service from enforcing the liens. "If the government is honest," Lee said, "it will agree to a court teit to determine what is consti tutional because both the govern ment and the people should ob serve the Constitution." COUNTY WARRANT LOST , Anyone finding a county warrant (similar to a check) made out to Paul Backlund, road department employe, has been asked to notify County Clerk Charles Doerner or County Treasurer Oliver Johnson. Doerner said the warrant for $360. 20 was lost Monday afternoon, probably in Roseburg. KILLSR BUMALO NEW YORK HI A bull buffalo suddenly turned on his mate and gored her to death at the Bronx Zoo her as several hundred vis itors watched. Gus Schilling, head keeper of mammals, said he did not know what caused the bull's action. Plans Announce For Bolstering Of Cease-Fire JERUSALEM Wl The U. N. truce organization Tuesday an nounced plans to bolster the Israeli-Egyptian cease-fire with U.N. observer posts and mobile U.N. patrols along the tense Gaza border between the two nations. The truce supervision headquar ters said Israel and Egypt had agreed to the new border arrange ments in a new attempt to prevent further hostilities. The announcement came as U.N. Secretary Generl Dag Hammar- skjoici went into a new meeting with Israel Premier David Ben Gurion. Each was accompanied bv a battery of aides. Hammarjltjold' and Ben-Gurion met to thresh out additional de tails of the practical border ar rangements to guarantee the Israeli-Egyptian cease-fire. The U.N. diplomat planned two additional meetings with the Is-, raeu teaaer, Tuesday aiternoon and Wednesday morning, before nis expected departure for Rome Wednesday afternoon. There he will prepare his final report to the U.N. Security Council, which sent him out April 6 on the peace mis sion amid a flurry of Israeli-Arab border outbreaks. Meanwhile, Jordan replied to Hammarskjold s proposals for a cease-fire between that nation and Israel. Premier Samir Rafai said in Amman the reply was harmon ious with the attitude of the other Arab states. An official source in the Jor danian capital said the reply was "positive" to a certain extent. But he emphasized that neither Jor dan nor Israel's other Arab neigh bors would tolerate any Israeli at tempt to divert the Jordan River for irrigation. U. S. Must Spend Billions Abroad, Economists Told By STERLING f. GREEN WASHINGTON I Harry A. Bullls, board chairman of General Mills, Inc., said today that in the economic cold war with Russia the United States must spend and invest "billions of dollars" more abroad. Bullis told nearly 4,000 businessmen-delegates to the annual meet ing of the U. S. Chamber of Com merce in a prepared talk that Russia has loosed a "ruthless and ferocious" economic cold war. He estimated the Communist world H spending three billion dol lars a year "merely to s p r a d their doctrine." Aid in the form of "unrealistic loans, trade, arms and develop ment projects" to Egypt, India, Syria, Indonesia and other coun tries totaled 500 million dollars in 1955 and the early months of 1956, he said. These are abnormal commercial ties offered at the exnense of a Soviet slave labor economy, he said, on tne ,tneory mat the Com munist goal of world domination justifies the means. ''Above all, they are designed to upset economic relationships in the free world, to alienate mil lions of people from the ideal of democracy, he said. "With every cent of this cut-'sate interest goes a dollar's worth of political penetration." Oregonian Reporters ' Grilled In Vice Probe PORTLAND UH An investiga tion of Portland vice continued quietly here Tuesday under the di rection of Oregon Atty. Gen. Rob ert x . mormon. Two reporters for The Oregon ian. who wrote a series of copy righted articles on vice, were questioned Monday. Thornton said he and his staff are "pressing our investigation" and will present evidence to the grand jury after it convenes May 7. Gov. Elmo Smith ordered the inquiry after The Oregonian pub lished stories about reported at tempts by Seattle gamblers and bookmakers to control vice and graft here, and of attempts to in fluence political activity. Thornton called in reporter William Lambert and Wallace Turner, spending most of the day talking with them. The attorney general said "we are proceeding with all possible speed to cover th entire field." JANET BLAIR THRILLED HOLLYWOOD bn Janet Blair says she is "thrilled" at the chance to work with television comedian Sid Caesar. "We became great friends and have our own mutual admiration society," the Altoona, Pa., actress said. "He has to work with people he is very fond of and I'm the same way."

Big Turnout At Elkhn Heir Candidattu Tarn (Continued from Pag On) old for the job he was seeking. He said he is 67. "But I don't think the job is a job for a boy," he said. Other opinions by candidates on the offices they seek were diverg ent. Ernest Seaton, on of the four candidates for nomination on the Republican ticket for county judge, said he wanted to "continue the good government we have in Douglas County." Arthur Selby, another GOP candidate for the same office, said he would like to see a court "that could get along together. For the last five years, we have had a sample of the other side," he concluded. William Ev ans, a GOP candidate for county commissioner, said about the court: "A business administration is what we need." James L. Zum walt, who said he knew road and maintenance work "upside down," claimed the county needed a road engineer, superintendent of main tenance and equipment and a pur chasing agent. All candidate for th nomina tions for sheriff were present. Most attention focused on the Republican side. Present Sheriff Ira C. Byrd said his administration had put or der into the sheriff's office which he found "in a state of chaos." His Republican opponent, Joseph A. C. Haystead, claimed there "was no such thing as cooperation among law enforcement agencies." He said if he were elected, he would restore that cooperation and "trust in county government." Although running for a national office, Dave Shaw was also limited to the three minutes allotted to all other candidates at the meet ing. He barely gathered steam, but promised he would continue nis re marks when he comes to Roseburg Friday night to speak. His introduction drew a point of order comment from Sen. Paul Geddes of Roseburg. Democratic candidate for state senator Daniel Dimick hurried to the microphone to introduce Shaw and Geddes stood up to request that Dimick "stand on his own feet." Spotty Salmon Catchaa Reported By Cillnertert ASTORIA ( Spotty catches were reported Monday as the spring commercial salmon fishing season opened for gillnet boats on the Columbia River. High and muddy water was blamed for the slow fishing as the Columbia ran brim full from snow runoff and water released from upstream dams. Three large seiners from Ho quiam and Aberdeen, Wash., joined some 300 other commercial boat upstream at Oneonta and Dodson, Ore. Some boats reported early catches of 400 pounds on th first drifts. Gillnetters had better luck after dark. Fish counters at Bonnevill Dam reported increased activity as the river began a slow fail from earlier peaks. MOW!
