Man In Street Has Definite
Views On Whether Adams
Should Be Fired From Job
(Editon: The Associated Press
Interviewed pinsni in each of 14
cities throughout tht country on
their reaction to tht Shtrmin
Adams controvorty. Tht rttult of
tht turvty follows.)
By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
The man in Ihe street ha defi
nite views, pro and con, on the
Sherman Adams case.
A sampling of vieVs in repre
sentative cities across the nation
produced this general picture:
About three-quarters of those
questioned felt It wrong for the
President's assistance to accept
Sifts from Boston industrialist
liernard Goldfine. They split about
evenly on whether he should leave
his job.
Of 124 persons interviewed in 14
cities, 85 held that men in public
life tlmuld not acccp'. gifts. The
other 39 thought it all right or at
least had no specific criticism.
Should Bo Find
Fifty-one thought he should re
sign or be fired and 52 said he
.should stay in the White House.
Twenty one said the decision
should be left to President Eissn-
howcr or otherwise reserved judg
ment. To a question whether a line
should be drawn in the acceptance
of gifts by public officials, there
was a wide variety of replies.
Some said no gifts at all should
he accented. Others thought a
small token at Christmas was ac
ceptable. Some thought it was not
Ihe value of the gift but the intent
that counted.
"For a man in a position like
this, he took too much," said
Michael AlcCann, a New York
elevator operator. "It ran to two
or three thousand dollars, and he
should know something would be
expected for it.
"If it was just a bottle of whis
key at Christmas time, or some
thing like that, it would be all
right. He should resign."
Paris Asta, a New York oper
ator of sightseeing buses, took a
different slant.
Influence At Sttko
"Receiving gifts Is not the ques
tion, " he said. "It's what a public
official does in return. If he uses
his public trust to influence any
body as a result of favors from
some corporation, group or indi
vidual, that's where I'd draw the
line. But I don't think that hnp-
Jiened. Adams should keep his
ob."
Other cities in which Ihe inter
views were conducted were Con
cord, N.H., where Adams once
was governor; Boston, Washing
ton, Chicago, Louisville, Atlanta,
New Orleans, Kansas City, Dallas,

Oregon May Share
In Unemployment
Benefits Program
SALEM (AP) Oregon mav
share in the federal program of
extending unemployment benefits
to jobless workers. Whether the
state will do so is uncertain.
Atty. Gen. Robert Y. Thornton
ruled Friday that the stale may
legally participate. It had been
thought since a 14 million dollar
federal loan for a similar purpose
was held illegal that Oregon
could not take any of the federal
unemployment benefits recently
voted by Congress.
Thornton said, however, that the
loan was illegal because it in
volved the governor's borrowing
authority. The current federal
program can be joined, he said,
because under it the state be
comes an agency of the United
Slates Department of Labor in
distributing benefits.
An estimated 26,000 Oregon
workers have exhausted their un
employment compensation bene
fits. Of these, about 9,000 still are
without work.
Mrs. Cocflia P. Galey, chairman
of the Unemployment Compensa
tion Commission, said the com
mission staff will study a number
of problems connected with shar
ing in the federal program. A de
cision on what course to take may
not be reached until late next
week, she said.
A new benefit year starts July 1,
causing some complication, she
said. Workers who have earned
sufficient wage credits since Jan.
1 to be eligible for benefits July 1
will not share in the federal bene
fits. However, (he said, it ap
peared that an appreciable part
ihn o nnn i;ll iinBn,nni. anA
without benefits would be able to
participate.
The federal program permits a
jobless worker's benefits to be ex
tended by 50 per cent of the
original period of time. In Oregon
his would add 13 weeks ot bene
fits, i
Indonesians Say
Rebel Capital
Of Menado Taken
JAKARTA, Indonesia (AP)
the voice o Indonesia Radio re
ported from Makassar Saturday
that the rebel capital of Menado
in North Celebes has fallen to In
donesian government troops.
Menado was the last city In In
donesia held by the rebels.
Ihe government has been fight
ing a revolt since Feb. 15, when
military and civilian leaders pro
claimed a rebel government at
I'adang m central Sumatra. The
rebels demanded that President
Sukarno shake up his government
to eliminate all communist iniiu-
ence. They also claimed Indone
sia s outer islands did not gel a
fair share of the proceeds from
Indonesian foreign trade.
Government troops captured
Padang and the alternate rebel
capital of Bukittinggi in April.
Rebel leaders fled to the jungle
to continue guerrilla warfare.
The main rebel activities then
centered at Menado under Col.
Joop Warouw, acting premier of
the rebel government. A small
rebel air force based in the North
Celebes area carried out a series
of raids on shipping and ports in
east Indonesia before it was de
stroyed. Preparing the knockout punch,
government forces were an
nounced on June 15 to have land
ed on two sides of Menado.
Hagerty Denies
Reports Adams'
Successor Sought
WASHINGTON ( AIM W h 1 1 e
: House press secretary James C.

: thai Sherman Adams had received
Inn loans or guarantee of loans
from Boston industrialist Bernard
Goldfine.
He also denied reports that
President Eisenhower was shop
ping around for a sucressor lo
Adams, the No. 1 White House
aide.
1 Hagerty had promised several
'days ago lo look inlo reports of
i loans by Goldfine to Adams. When
i asked Saturday what he had found
I Hagerty replied, "The answer on
that is no."
The press secretary at first said
he had no information about a
New York Post story that the
White House is shopping around
for a successor to Adams and thai
Secretary of Ihe Interior Fred Sea-
ton is the logical choice
Hagerty then was asked if he
meant to deny the story. He re
adied: "Of course, 1 know it lo he
untrue."
j Asked whether the White House
is snoppmg around among others
for an Adams replacement Hager
ty said: "No. that's a blanket de
nial of Ihe Post story."

the troops lo prevent Negroes
from entering despite a federal

Fire Danger Up,
But Officials
Are Optimistic
By THI ASSOCIATID PRISS
Fire danger increased in Oregon
forests Saturday, but forest offi
cials were optimistic over their
chances of controlling the one ma
jor blaze that has broken out so
far.
Wilmer Shumate, dispatcher for
the Unn County Fire Patrol Assn.,
said forest crews cut a trail
around the fire that broke out Fri
day on Canal Creek in the South
Santiam River area of eastern
Linn Counly.
He said the fire had covered
about 13S acres by mid-morning
Saturday. He said the spread had
stopped at least for the time be
ingand that the next few hours
would determine whether the fire
would be brought under control.
Fire Jumps Creek
The fire jumped Canal Creek
and burned about 40 acres of Wil
lamette National Forest timber
Friday night. Guy Johnson of the
regional Forest Service fire con
trol office at Portland said no
strong winds were forecast and
conditions appeared favorable for
controlling the blaze.
The officials said about 100 men
were fighting the fire. Johnson
added that a crew of 14 special
ists would go from the Mt. Hood
-National Forest to take over on the
fire lines Saturday night.
The mercury climbed to a high
of 95 degrees at Grants Pass Fri

forecast through Saturday wnn no

Belgian Flier
Given Release
By E. Germany
BRUSSELS, Belgium (AP)
Belgian' Air Force Lt. Martin
Paulus returned home Saturday
after 23 days detention in East
Germany, where his jet plane was
forced down by Red fighters.
His release was effected by the
signing of a formal protocol be
tween Leon Jacobs, Belgian con
sul general in Berlin, and Otto
Winzer, the East German deputy
foreign minister.
The United States has refused
to sign such a protocol to ebtain
ihe freedom of' nine U.S. Army
men taken prisoner June 7 when
their helicopter strayed into East
Germany during a thunderstorm.
Jacobs said in West Berlin that
the protocol provided only for pay
ment of the costs of transporting
the Belgian plane back to Belgium
by train and the expenses of
Paulus' stay In East Germany.
He said this did not constitute
formal recognition of the East
German regime, which could be
negotiated only by chiefs of state.
However, it was the first for
mal protocol signed by a Western
nation with East Germany and
tended to give the Soviet satellite
increased diplomatic status.
ADN, official East German news
agency, needled the United States
to reach a similar settlement over
the nine soldiers.
Paulus returned to Brussels in
a Polish airliner from East Ber
lin. He had been captured May
29.
Paulus was flying an F84 Thun
derslreak fighter, attached to an
Atlantic Alliance Squadron in Bel
gium, when he crossed the Iron
Curtain by accident during I
training flight.
