Transfer Him
By BEM PRICE
PARR1S ISLAND, S.C. Ifl
Marine commandant Gen. Ran
dolph Mcc Pate said Wednesday
the only thing he would do to S.
Sgt. Matthew C. McKcon would be
to bust him one stripe and give
him a transfer "for stupidity."
Pate offered his opinion on a
question summing up the entire
case against McKcon.
McKcon is facing a general
court martial for leading six re
cruits to death by drowning on
a night disciplinary march into a
swamp.
The specified charges against
the 31-year-old former drill in
structor chiefly arc involuntary
manslaughter, drinking on duty
and oppression of recruits.
When asked what action he
would have taken in the wake ot
the drinking, Pate replied,
think I would have taken a stripe
away from him."
As for the night march ilself on
which tho new drowned, Pale ob
served, "I think 1 would have him
transferred away for stupidity
and make a note in his record
book that under no conditions
could he handle recruits."

Government1 Ends
Allocation Of
Polio Vaccine
WASHINGTON tfl The gov-
eminent Wednesday ended feder
al allocation of Salk polio vaccine
to the states and territories.
Secretary of Welfare Folsom an
nounced this was done "so that
more vaccine will be available to
areas where the demand is great
est." Folsom added that the move
was taken upon recommendation
of Dr. Leonard A. Schcele, who
wound up his work as surgeon gen
eral of the Public Health Service
Tuesday.
Scheele reported that the sup
ply is more plentiful, and noted
states last month turned back
vaccine previously allotted them.
Seven of those states waived
their rights to allotments available
to them on July 24.
Allocations can be reinstated,
he said, if circumstance! change.
Scheele gave a new estimate
that more than 40 million child
ren and expectant mother have
received at least one vaccine in
jection, with many having re
ceived Iwo or three.
Dropping of allocations docs not
affect the recommended prioiity
groups, Scheele said. He said tho
National Advisory Committee
strongly urges concentration on
vaccinating children under 2ft and
expectant mothers until maxi
mum coverage has been achieved
in that group.

Mayor Lloyd Hill shot the 2'i-mile-long
whirlpool rapids of the
lower Niagara River in a steel
barrel Monday nisht and said he
had spun around in the whirlpool
itself for 2xi hours.
The 37-ycar-old nverman had
made three previous trips through
part or all of the rapids, which

Request Of Cold Beach Man
For Quick Justice Granted
Justice moved swiftly this week
when a Gold Beach man told Cur
ry County Dist. Atty. Sam Had he
wished to waive all rights and en
ter a guilty plea to a charge of
assault with a dangerous weapon.
Hall checked with circuit Judge
Dal King of Coquille to request
an arraignment and learned the
judge was on vacation. Hall then
contacted Judge Charles Wood
rich in Roseburg and asked for
an arraignment in Roseburg Tues
day. This was possible since both
counties are in the same judicial
district.
Tuesday, William Andrew Linzy,
37, appeared before the Roseburg
judge. He was accompanied by
Dep. Dist. Attorney David R. For
tier. Linzy admitted drawing a pocket
knife on Allen Scharcr of Rose
burg, a special deputy sheriff of
Douglas County temporarily em
ployed in Gold Beach by United
States Plywood Corp. According to
Sheriff R. G. Sabin of Curry
County, Linzy called Scharer
across a Gold Beach street the
night of July 22, then drew a knife.
Linzy, who has served two pre
vious prison terms in Mississippi
and California, told the judge he
seeks help for an alcoholic prob
lem. He said he apparently
"blacks out' and loses -control. He
said the Curry incident was sim
ilar to those in the other states.
A sober-faced man, the ex-con
vict really caused trouble in Gold
Beach. Jailed by Police Chief
James Bolton and Deputy Schar
cr, Linzy apparently went berserk.
He pulled a basin from the jail
wall an'd smashed out glass win
dows. As authorities attempted to
quell the distrubance, Linzy broke
out the jail door and raced into
the street, the sheriff said.
He was controlled by tear gas.

To States For
Highway Work
WASHINGTON I Secretary
of Commerce Weeks Wednesday
allotted 52,550,000,000 to the states
to speed construction of first sec
tions of the new 41,000 mile road
network.
The money, for the fiscal year
beginning next July 1, is the larg
est amount ever provided for
roads at one time in history.
This second division of funds
for the new road building plan
brings to $3,675,000,000 already set
aside for the states.
Immediately after ' President
Eisenhower signed the federal
highway legislation June 29,
Weeks moved to provide $1,125,000,-
000 to the states for the current
fiscal year which began July 1.
He said at the time that he
expected the first construction to
get underway within three months
and that the program should be
rolling by Jan. 1.
The federal aid road program
calls for a spending of about 33
billion dollars in the next 13 to
15 years. The bulk of the funds
provided by Congress will go for
construction of the 41,000 mile in
terstate system.
The federal government pro
vides 90 per cent and state and lo
cal governments 10 per cent for
construction of the interstate
roads. On building primary and
secondary state roads and urban
highways the federal government
and states put up the money on a
50-50 basis.
Under the current fiscal year
program one billion dollars was
apportioned from federal funds to
start Uie interstate system and
125 million as the federal share
for the secondary roads. Under
the new apportionment for the
1958 fiscal year. Weeks set up
$1,700,000,000 to help build inter
state roads andr 850 million as the
federal share toward improving
state feeder roads.
Weeks said the new apportion
ment is being made now to carrv
out the intent of Congress to push
the federal highway program with
maximum possible speed.
Amounts apportioned to each
slate for the 1958 fiscal year in
clude: Idaho $25,506,734; Oregon,
$35,741,796; and Washington, $11,-

Restrictions Lifted
From Salvage Timber
(Continued From Page One)
timber in the South Coast Market
ing Area.
Judge Hill pointed out that now
both Lane County and Douglas
County lumbermen will be able to
bid on HLM sales ot salvage in
the area. He said it will benefit
particularly lumbering in northern
uougias county, mucn oi which ia
included in the Douglas Marketing
Area, the central Douglas county
area.
Hill said the BLM plans to go
ahead with construction of a link
road between the Twin Msters
Road and the end of Gunter Road,
thus giving northern Douglas Coun
tv lumbermen an even greater ad
vantage. He said the benefits
would accrue particularly to Drain,
Yoncalla and Oakland, which pre
viously have not been able to bid
on timber which might be closer
and more accessible than umoer
to which it was restricted in the
central Douglas County area. Hill
said the link road would stretch to
between three and Vi miles for
the connection.
Marketing area regulations were
established in 1947. They required
that wood manufacturers initially
process timber in the marketing
areas in which they are located.
Officials of the BLM said in
creased recovery of salvage tim
ber made possible by the new or
der will not materially affect the
quantity of green timber that may
be cut.
Judge Hill pointed out that a
minumum of green timber would
have to be cut in the salvage op
erations because of intermingling
of salvage and green trees. He
said this is necessary for economic
feasibility, but would be kept to
a minimum.
Long Humiliated
By Opponents'
Win In Election
NEW ORLEANS I Two Loui
siana congressmen threw the
state's politics into a spin today
after humiliating Gov. Earl Long
with smashing victories in their
bids for renomination in the Demo
cratic primary election.
Rep. T. A. Thompson defeated
three Long - backed candidates in
the 77th Congressional Dist. Race
and Rep. Otto Passman won over
two Long - supported candidates
m the 5th.
Victory in yesterday's balloting
amounted to election in this state.
Long was not available for com
ment on the outcome.
Four other representatives won
renomination in two - way races.
Two representatives and Sen. Rus
sell Long were unopposed.
Interest was centered on the
Thompson and Passman races, in
which Long took a personal hand.
There was little state interest in
the other races.
Long's political prestige also
took a beating in New Orleans
and in the 8th Dist. Long's home
district.
Four Long - backed candidates
for judgeships were roundly de
feated in New Orleans and Long's
sister Mrs. Clara Long Knott of
Many, trailer Alexandria Atty.
Harold McSween in the 8th Dist.
Board of Education race.
Thompson's explanation was that
the results "showed the people's
resentment."

RANGOON. Burma Ufi Burma
today pressed Communist China
to withdraw Red troops which mil

There were no reports of new
advances. Clashes with Burmese
forces and some casualties were

northern territory.
A government spokesman said
Burma was "seriously concerned"
about the moves along the north

situation to the attention of the
Peiping government.
"Negotiations are now in prog
ress with a view to the withdrawal
of these Chinese troops to the Chi
nese side of the border," a For

news conference on June 6. But
he replied to a barrage of ques
tions during a 30-minute session
in a sure voice and seemed to be
in a confident mood.
The news conference drew 311
newsmen, tying a record set on
Feb. 29 when Eisenhower an
nounced for a second term,
Many of the questions dealt
with the state of the President's
health.
With a somewhat wry smile,
Eisenhower said he had what he
termed a pretty rough ride dur
ing the days immediately after
his June 9 operation.
The President went on to say
that from the day of the opera
tion he has continued to improve
j.jiv
He said however, that his physi
cians had told him it would be
four months before he was fully
recovered.
Eisenhower's physicians gave
him a new physical examination
Wednesday morning and the
White House doctor reported him
"in fine shape."
Maj. Gen. Howard M. Snyder,
the President's personal doctor,
told newsmen that so far as the
forthcoming presidential cam
paign is concerned "Eisenhower
will be able to do as much as he
would have without this at
tack" of ileitis.
The President's comment on
other subjects included:
The great problem now, he said,
is to make sure that the Suez
is preserved as an international
waterway. Doing that, he added,
is vital to the U.S. economy and
welfare.
Congress the record of the 84th
Congress, which adjourned last

comnarison with the quiet, ef
ficient work of the other two lead
ing actors.
The play, whicn was a success
ful 1954 movie, deals with an al
coholic actor who stages a suc
cessful comeback because the
young director and his wife be
lieve in him.
Ward s portrayal was more
over acting" than anything. Le-
roy Owen and Sally Call, as the
actor and his wife, gave their char
acters just the right touch of frus
tration and bitterness.
Backing the three lead players
was an assorted crew of minor peo
ple who ran in and out. Most out
standing of these was Judith Haw
ley, as cute Nancy Stoddard, an
ingenue just beginning her Broad
way career.
Starting slowly, the play built to
its climax. The rather long first
act (five scenes) had the audience
somewhat restless, but this was
forgotten in the final three scenes,
which overshadowed all that went
before.
The Daniel Krempcl - directed
show used a 'minimum of scenery
and props to lend a somber ne-.e to
the story of drabness.

Camas Valley

On School Budget
For the third time, voters in
the Camas Valley school district
are being asked to approve the
1956-57 budget Thursday. The
budget has been defeated twice in
; nrevious elections.
j ne saia.
The budget was cut by eliminat.
ing one extra teacher's salary
and by a revision in estimated re
ceipts. The district will receive
$875 in funds from the federal gov
ernment for children whose par
ents work on federal lands under
Public Law 874, Wheeler added.
He voiced the opinion that most
of the opposition before was
against the extra teacher. It is
hoped that by eliminating him, the
new budget will pass, Wheeler
said.
This is the last time the budget
can be voted on this year. County
officials will not grant another
time extension, he stressed.
The polls will be open from 2 to
8 p.m. Thursday at the Camas
Valley school.
The district has also applied for
an additional $4,255.72 from the
government under PL 874, Wheel
er said This claim is for the year
1955-56. However, the district can
not count the money in the esti
mated receipts until it is actually
received, he pointed out.

President Says He'll
Not Force Nixon's Choice
(Continued From Page One)
ceptable for second place on the
ticket.
Harold E. Stassen has proposed
that Hcrter be substituted for
Nixon.
Stassen, Eisenhower's disarma
ment aide, contends that an Eisen-hower-Herter
ticket would be 6
per cent stronger in November
than an Eisenhower-Nixon ticket.
A reporter asked Eisenhow
er whether his renewed endorse
ment of Nixon and his refusal to
name any other candidate didn't
promote the conclusion that he
was for Nixon. Eisenhower re
plied he saw no reason to draw
the conclusion that he preferred
Nixon, but he said reporters could
do so if they chose.
Eisenhower said he firmly be
lieves in the right of any citizen
to express his preference as to
political candidates. He added
that applies to the President him
self as well as to the vice presi
dent. Stassen himself came out quick
ly with applause for Eisenhower's
statement of the White House po
sition. "I am pleased with the
President's press conference state
ment on the vice presidential mat
ter. I feel he has made exactly tho
right statement with regard to
this at the present time," Stas
sen said.
"The convention is now definite
ly open. The problem of the vice
presidential nomintion can now be
considered deliberately and
thoughtfully for the next three
weeks.
"The American people can now
make their views known to the
delegates."
Eisenhower has granted Stassen
a 30-day leave of absence from
his White House job, beginning
Thursday, to pursue his "politi
cal activities."
