The crash was the worst the seven-year Luft waffe has suffered. The four probably were convers ing with each other in English during their fatal flight, because English is now the command language of the Luftwaffe. Many of the pilots in the eight squadrons that nave, been acti vated and assigned to NATO were trained in the United States or Canada. Those trained here were instructed by Germans who had learned their business in North America. They flew planes designed in the United States and -only built on licenso here. They learned acrobatics from American officers such as the one flying with them Tuesday. Whenever they had prepared to land after past flights, they had to seek instruction from the con trol tower in English. The 700 Super Sarfighters which the Luftwaffe is to have by 1965 are capable of delivoring a nu clear bomb to a suitable target. But all tho bombs that might be carried by these German Star fighters are owned and controlled by the Americans.

Stuart Syming ton's armed services investigating subcommittee. Symington branded Flemming's action a clear violation of the stockpile law. The stockpile law never was intended and did not authorize minerals purchase! for the purpose of stabilizing prices, the Missouri Democrat said. Symington asked Lawrence: "You say regardless of any de fense requirements, instructions were given by Dr. Flemming to buy more zinc, is that your tes timony?" "Yes, sir," Lawrence replied. Symington's investigators ' are trying to find out who was re sponsible for loading the stockpile with huge surpluses of zinc an a companion metal, lead. The combined dollar value of the lead zinc surplus now totals $544 mil lion. Sea Route Topic At Friday Meet A group of 20 business men from the Coos Bay-North Bend area in terested in promoting a "Winne-mucca-to-the-Sea" route, will make a coffee stop In Roseburg Friday at 10 a.m. at the Umpqua Hotel. The announcement by Gordon Smith, acting for Vice President Tom Pargeter, who heads the Roseburg Chamber of Commerce Highway Committee, states that the group is promotmg the Coos Bay Wagon Road and the North Umpqua Highway to U.S. 97 as the route. Interest in the Winnemucca-to-the-Sea route has taken on new significance with the completion of a road from Winnemucca, Nov., up through Oregon and presently, terminating near . Lakeview using the Lakeview to . Klamath Falls road for continuation. A western terminus has never been established, but the Coos Bay area has sought backing for the route to come over the North Ump qua, then follow a new alignment which would be adjacent to the old Coos Bay Wagon Rd. One proposal would tie in close ly with the Douglas County Court's present Improvement plans for Garden Valley Rd., which would include a crossing of the South Umpqua River at Conn's Ford south of Melrose, then eventually proceed westward. Once the Coast Range is crossed, a natural grade to the coastal area has reportedly been found, which would shorten the distance from Roscburg to the sea to about 50 miles. The Coos Bay area wants a closer access to timber-rich Doug las County, using the port there as an outlet for water shipments. The chamber announcement asks the attendance especially of High way Committee members to help establish relations of mutual inter est with the visiting group. N.Y.

Sullivan, operating di- Diefenbaker's Cabinet Holds Strategy Talks OTTAWA (UPI) - Prime Min ister John Dlefenbaker and his conservative cabinet meet today to decide how their minority gov ernment will operate in Canada's 25th Parliament and avert an other election in six months. A post-mortem on how the con servatives' 203-seat majority in the House of Commons was re duced in Monday's election to a 118-seat minority also was a cer tainty. Lester B. Pearson, leader of a resurgent liberal party which will hold at least 99 seats when Par liament convenes In September, also scheduled a major strategy session today. Diefcnbaker returned to the capital Tuesday night from his home riding (district) of Prince Albert, Sask. Questioned by news men when his plane made a re fueling stop in Winnipeg, Man., the prime minister declared: "The government has no coali tion at the present time and it is still in office." Other government spokesmen have made no definitive state ment on how the conservative ad ministration will operate with less than half the seats in Commons. Diefenbaker has indicated he may try and hang on for as much of the customary five-year tenure of office as possible. Most observers felt the best chance of avoiding another elec tion within six months appeared to lie with some form of coali tion between the conservatives and the Social Credit party (SOC RED), which surprised the nation by winning 30 seats. Twenty-six of these were in Quebec Province. Robert N. Thompson, SOCRED leader, ruled out any permanent alliance with the conservatives. But he said his group might par ticipate in an "interim" arrange? ment to give Parliament some stability. The Socialist New Democrats won 19 seats in the election and would not have a majority even if they worked out a merger with the liberals to fight a conscrva-tivc-SOCRED alliance. Reds Can Catch Up With U. S.-Khrush BUCHAREST, Romania (AP) Sovlet Premier Khrushchev told Romanian collective farmers Tuesday at Ceacu it takes brains and capital to catch up with the United States, but it will be done. "We have the brains and we will get the capital and then we will overtake them," the Soviet leader declared. Khrushchev admitted that com munism had difficulties in per suading peasants to accept collec tivization. "Do not be too proud that you in Romania have finished collectivi zation of farms," he said. "There is always the psychologi cal problem of the soul of the peasants. No one is born a Com munist. After collectivization, the peasant goes to look for his own horse and feels that It is still his own property." Khrushchev, who is on a week's visit to Romania, seemed tired. He spent a grueling six hours in hot sun visiting the collective farm and a field crop research station at Fundulea. Jffihcr Injury Results In Three-Cr Accident Three cars were involved in an accident at 5:15 p.m. .Tuesday at the intersection of Garden Valley Rd. and Curry Rd., and the driver of one ear, George Frank Baker, 1950 W.

Outside burning of any kind is covered in the restriction, he said. rector of the nonofflcial Crime Commission, said the modern day strip-tease house had degenerated Into "dip Joint." "Frequently in-sich places," Sullivan told the Senate rackets investigating committee, "the cheating of customers, padding of bills, robbery of patrons, substi tution of drinks, and the vicious exploitation of patrons who be came senselessly intoxicated un der a relentless system of solici ation, is the rule rather than the exception." Controlled by Hoodlums Sullivan testified as the com mittee moved toward a conclusion of its investigation into the con nection between the American Guild of Variety Artists and hoodlum-controlled night clubs. Sullivan charged that conditions at the "clip joints" could not exist without the knowledge of the po lice. He said agents of AGVA visited night, clubs in Miami and talked with members who are entertain ers. He said the union apparently did nothing to alter conditions "so blatant that only blind men could fail to see" how entertainers are used. JFK Addresses College Students With U.S. Jobs WASHINGTON (AP)-Presldent Kennedy, addressing 4,000 college students wjth summer jobs in the government, cited the case of a young Peace Corps volunteer in Chile today as an example of dedication to democracy. Kennedy said he hopes the de termination of Tom Scanlon mo tivates the students to serve their government in the future. The young men and women filled Constitution Hall to hear Ken nedy. The President declared the Unit ed States Is carrying the burden of the defense of freedom nearly everywhere in the world and said the Peace Corps demonstrates the desire of young people to partici pate in the cause of freedom. Then he told the story of Scan lon, a 23-year-old resident of Dun more, Pa. Scanlon has been working in a rural education project since August 1961 at a community in Chile 40 milei away from an Indian village that prides itself on being Communist. Scan lon finally got to see the village chief. The chief, Kennedy related, told Scanlon he could not talk the In dians out of being Communists. Scanlon replied this was not his purpose he .wanted only to learn "what I can do to help." The chief remarked that snows would fall within a few weeks and that to reach the village Scanlon would have to park his jeep 20 miles away and struggle through five feet of snow. "The Communists are willing," the chief said. "Are you?" A short time later Scanlon was asked what he was doing, Kenne dy said. "He said, 'I am waiting for the snow.' "I hope that spirit motivates you," Kennedy commented.

Union Dots Nothing "There has been nothing done to my knowledge by the union," Sullivan said, "to withdraw its members from these clubs or to take any action within the union power to correct these flagrant abuses." Sullivan said Miami area trip tese houses had become centers of vic and prostitution rackets. This new aspect of vice is more vicious, by far, than the old time houses of prostitution, he said.
