2 The News-Review, Roseburg, Iron Lung Used In Battle To Save Life Of Dr. Ward LONDON (UPI) - Dr. Stephen Ward, 50, underwent an operation, developed bronchial pneumonia and was placed in an iron lung respirator today by doctors fight ing to save his life. The society osteopath was con victed on vice charges Wednes day only hours after he took an overdose of sleeping pills in an apparent suicide attcnipt to beat a jail sentence. He was rushed to St. Stephen's Hospital and has been uncon scious for almost two days, with his condition fast becoming worse. A hospital bulletin this morning said he was "grievously and criti ilcally ill" and had undergone a tracheotomy an operation to help his breathing. A second bulletin issued this afternoon said: "Dr. Ward's condition has de teriorated and he has had to be Admiral, Six Crewmen Abandon Luxury Yacht In Mid-Pacific SAN FRANCISCO (UPI) A re tired Navy vice admiral and six crewmen, who abandoned a $250, 000 luxury yacht riruing a cruise from Hawaii to California, were picked up by a Navy submarine shortly before midnight Wednes day night about 600 miles south west of San Krancisco. Vice Adm. Gerald Bogan, one time commander of the U.S. 1st , Task Force, and his crew cast themselves adrift lrom the 101 foot yacht, Freedom II, in a 14 foot boat Wednesday afternoon. There was no immediate explana tion for their action. A Coast Guard spokesman said the seven men were picked up by the USS rtazorback at 11:50 p.m. I'DT (2:50 a.m. EDT Thursday) and all presumably were in good condition. The submarine said they would be taken to San Di ego. There was no immediate indi cation of the fate of the Free dom II, which was reported still afloat at dusk about 12 miles from where the crewmen were Home Owner's Taxes Reduced By VINCENT J. BURKE United Preit International WASHINGTON (UPI) Congres sional tax writers have unani mously approved legislation de signed to in like home ownership one of the best hedges that an American can take against infla tion. The House Ways & Means Committee Wednesday affirmed liy a 22 0 vote an earlier decision In add special benefits for home owners to tho across-the-board rate reductions in income taxes President Kennedy wants enact ed this year. The provision would grant a "once in a lifetime" tax break to taxpayers who sell their homes for a profit after reaching the age of 115. The Treasury esti mated that it would mean tax savings of $10 million a year to elderly homeowners. It was one of a number of lax revisions approved by le commit tee as it began 11 final round of voting on a compromise version of Kennedy's lax-revision-iindre-duclion program. In day-long bal loting the committee approved structural changes in tax law that would net about $i55 million a year in additional income lax payments. The biggest revenue producer denial of U.S. lax de ductions for payment of stale and local taxes on gasoline, ciga rettes, alcohol and auto lags ac counted for $500 million of the total.

Asked by reporters about Ward's chances of surviving the night, Butcher said: "I wouldn't like to comment on that. This condition has really de teriorated." Placid in Iron Lung He said doctors had put Ward in a breathing machine, or iron lung. Ward's, breathing had become labored earlier in the day. But Butcher said that as far as he knew Ward had no throat in fection in the wake of his suicide try, which preceded by 12 hours the verdict bv an Old Bailey Criminal Court jury Wednesday that he was guilty of two counts picked up. The Coast Guard said it did not expect an explanation of what caused abandonment of the yacht until arrival of the nazorback in San Diego later today. The yacht, a very plushy con verted Navy patrol vessel, was reported to have carried a larder which included pate dc foi gras, filet mignon steaks and cham pagne. It sailed from San Diego to Honolulu several months ago, with Edward Gilchrist as captain, to operate under charter. How ever, Gilchrist remained in Ha waii when the vessel departed for the West Coast on July 16, and Bogan was asked to make the re turn trip as skipper. The Freedom I! is owned by Frank G. Jameson, a vice presi dent of Douglas, Aircraft Corp. in Los Angeles. Us first May Day distress call was intercepted by seven Canadian destroyers, which were berthed in San Francisco during the weekend on a goodwill tour. The distress message said those aboard were going over the side in two small boats, an outboard motor boat and a while dinghy. A Coast Guard search and rescue plane dispatched from San Fran, cisco reported that all seven men were in the 14-foot boat when it arrived at the scene. Adm. Bogan, 6(1, retired from the Navy in 1050 during the stormy debates over unification of the armed forces. A letter writ ten by Bogan played a large role in the dismissnl of Admiral Louis E. Dcnfield as Chief of Naval Op erations. At the time of the unification dispute, one document signed by Bogan suggested that Navy mor ale had fallen "almost to de spondency" under the threat of unification. The letter was endorsed by Arthur W. Radford, Pacific Fleet Commander. Floyd E. Easterday Funeral services will he held Friday at 2 p.m. at Ganz Mortu ary in Myrtle Creek for Floyd E.

The jury found him innocent of three other morals charges in the culmination of the case that set off Britain's scandal of the cen tury and almost toppled Prime Minister Harold Macmillan's gov ernment. Ward was rushed to St. Steph en's Hospital while the trial pro ceeded. He will be sentenced when and if he recovers. His lawyers said they would appeal the conviction. A London newspaper asked to day whether Ward might be a "fall guy" and whether the trial had brought out everything about those in high positions involved in the scandal. Ward himself, in a newspaper interview he granted the night before his suicide attempt, charged that Lord Astor "cruci fied me" by not speaking up for him. Admitted Introduction Ward, who had a cottage on Astor's Cliveden estate and was a friend of the wealthy peer, ad mitted he introduced Astor to 21 ycar old Christine and 18-year old Maudy, but not with the inten tion of offering their services as prostitutes. He said the same thing of his introduclion of War Minister John Profumo to Christine. Her affair with Profumo at the same time she was seeing the Soviet naval attache, Capt. Eugene Iva nov, nearly caused the fall of the Macmillan cabinet and brought about Profumo's resignation. Blonde Mandy testified that she had been intimate with Astor and with actor Douglas Fairbanks Jr. Both men denied this in state ments out of court but did not testify. "It's not prison that worries me," Ward told a London Daily Express reporter Tuesday night. "It's taking the blame, being the victim of a witch hunt that's what hurts." Local Logger Wins Event In Wisconsin John II. Miller, the logger who in the past has brought fame to Garden Valley by winning world championship and other trophies in logging events, returned in the early morning hours today with yet another world championship prize. Miller's latest competition was at the Lumberjr its' World Cham pionships at llayward, Wis., where ho was first in the one-man cross cut saw event, called in the North west, single bucking. This is his third world championship win, the first being 13 years ago in chop ping at the Albany Timber Car nival and the second this year in axe throwing, also at Albany. Ac cording to Addie Schneider, Gar den Valley correspondent, the Ore gon and Wisconsin events are the only two offering world champion ship status. At llayward, Miller also placed third in double bucking with Mar tin Hedrick of Quincy,' Calif., who was the champion in the power saw competition. Prior to his appearance at llay ward, Miller was fresh from a second place win in single bucking and a third place win in chopping at the Loggers and Lumberman! Jubilee at Areata, Calif.

Pair Of Lions Prove Headache For Police ALBANY (UPD-A pair of cir rus lions, one of them said to be the second largest in captivity, gave Stale Police a headache Wednesday when their portable cage flipped over on Interstate 5 near the llalsey interchange. The cage, being towed by truck from Sacramento to Portland, tipped over when a trailer hitch came loose. Neither of the lions was injured, and their trailer was set hack on its wheels by a tow truck from Albany. The two passengers. Leo, weigh ing Ii50 pounds and reputedly the second largest in captivity, and Nero, weighing 500 pounds, are part of the Stan Kramien Circus. Driver of the truck was Hay Grant, 23. of Pasco. Wash., who apparently wasn't taking any chances with the animals. "Are either of them hurt'.'" newsmen asked. "No, but they will be if they get out," he said, pointing to a near by rifle. Passing motorists, noting a warning sign leaning against the trailer, weren't taking any chances, either. None stopped at the scene.

McMicken said due to the experi ence gained in employing youth for a pilot program last summer, very little time was wasted in re initiating the program this year. Program Continued The program stems from a move ment launched in the community last summer to provide summer employment for idle teen-agers. Peter B. Scrafin, then mayor, spearheaded the idea for a youth employment program and a spe cial citizens committee was set up to study the problem of youth unemployed. From this beginning, the city of Roseburg entered into tho effort by initiating a test pro gram and hired a few boys for parttime tasks.

Schools will open on Sept. 3 as originally planned. The decision was made by the board Wednesday night based on an administrative recommendation from Supt. M. C. Deller. Deller said his discussion of the matter with George Neuner, school attor ney, had indicated the district should not stray from its legal responsibilities in connection with teacher contracts already signed. The Douglas County Bean Grow ers Association at the last school board meeting requested a delay of the opening day in Septem ber. Farmers pointed out a late planting season and cool weather will result in a late harvest, de veloping the need for a harvest Africans Press Segregation Policies Today UNITED NATIONS, N.Y. (UPI) African members of the Unit ed Nations today pressed their at tack on South Africa's segrega tion policies before the U.N. Se curity Council following a suc cessful move against Portugal. The Africans seek "firm and positive" action against the white government of South Africa for its "apartheid" program of keep ing whites and Negroes separated and of denying Negroes any real part in the government. But counsels of moderation by the United Slates and Britain ap peared to be having an effect. '1 he Africans' opening speeches in the apartheid debate Wednes day were surprisingly mild in tone. The action taken against Por tugal for its colonial policies in Africa also was more moderate j than the Africans had demanded. The council voted 8-0 to request all countries to impose a partial arms embargo on Portugal and called on Portugal to grant self determination to its African colo nics. The United Slates, Britain, and France, which are allied to Por tugal through the NATO treaty,! abstained from voting. Portuguese Foreign Minister Alberto Franco Nogueira called! it a "most revolting resolution." I but it was considerably, watered down through amendments sub mitted by Venezuela. What this did was to change the wording of. tho resolution to milder lan guage, calling on the council to appeal to Portugal instead of is sue orders to it. Robert Noah Rose Jr. Robert Noah P.ose Jr., 50. a na tive of Oakland and a resident there most of his life, died on a fishing trip at Odell Lake Wednes day. He was born at Oakland April 14. 1913. and had lived in that area until about three years ago when he moved to Springfield. He re sided there at 18(10 F Street. Surviving are his wife, Lola A.; daughters, Mrs. Margaret Mann. Cottage Grove, and Mrs. Judy Newman, Springfield; a son. Rob ert Noah Rose 111. Oakland; two brothers, Owen and Durward. both of Sutherlin: five -grandchildren and several nieces and nephews. Funeral services will he held Monday at 10:30 a.m. at the Suth erlin Methodist Church, with the Rev. Richard Case officiating. Pri vate committal services will be in the Roseburg Memorial Gardens. Simon Lounshury Mortuary of Eu ..gene is in charge. Driver Found Guilty Of Reckless Driving l.attie Broyhill. 18. of 1737 S.El Mill St., was found guilty of reck less driving on trial before Rose 'burg Municipal Court Judge War ren Woodruff Wednesday, lie was fined $70 and SS costs. City police Wednesday nighl took into custody Larry Lee Nave, 18. of 1546 SE' Cobb St.. and Ronald Eugene Sheldon. 18. of 1740 NE Oswego St. Nave was booked for drunken driving and Sheldon for being a minor in possession of liquor. Police said two six-packs of beer were taken from the car. ( tp7 force after the opening day of school. Will Excuse Students While denying the request, the board assured the association that students who are interested in work ing in the harvest may do so on an "excused absence" basis, and ef forts will be made to help these harvest workers catch up on their school work. School administrators suggested the district office could assist in the recruitment of student pickers by giving notice to schools on days that harvest workers are needed. Principals may be advised that students who participate in the harvest are not to be penalized, Deller said. The superintendent pointed out the contract specifies that the school year commences on Aug. 26 for teachers. The teachers serve for 190 days and within that tine are required by law to make certain reports. Technically, the school year ends on June 3. "Should the opening of school be delayed until Sept. 9, it would be possible to get 175 days (the mini mum requirement) of teaching completed on June 3," Deller ex plained. "It would not be possible for teachers to properly evaluate pupils, prepare and distribute re port cards and complete inventor ies and other reports as required by law in our local school district on the same day that school clos es." Report for Training For these reasons, Deller rec ommended that teachers report on Aug. 26 for their week of in-service training and that school begin on Sept. 3 as originally planned. Wednesday Gives Fire Moratorium After a bearcat of a day Tues day on fires, the fire departments in the Roseburg area had a chance to sit back and take a breather. They were harassed Tuesday with a large number of small grass and brush fires and one large house fire that damaged a home to the tune of $40,000. Cause of the blaze that destroyed the home has not been determined as yet, and ofli ficials are continuing an investi gation. The only action reported Wed nesday, was by the Roseburg City Fire Department when they were called out to extinguish a small grass fire about 4:48 p.m. at 1552 SE Kane. No damage was report ed. Robbery Charge Faced By Driver GRANTS PASS (UPI) Gerald Wayne Holder, 22, driver of a car involved in a , fatal traffic acci dent Monday, has been arrested on an armed robbery charge. The Maywood. Calif., man was being held for Lake County au thorities. Police said today they were still investigating the accident in which Marianne Hedgcpcth, 15, of Central Point was killed. Police said they chased Holder's car. containing Miss lledgepeth, at speeds up to 120 miles an hour before it crashed and burst into flame at the Merlin exit on Inter state Freeway 5.

Monday in September, a proposal j that drew support from board j members. ! F. C. Riley, manager of the local j office of the Department of Em ployment, supported the idea of a ' postponement in a recent letter to ' the district. In that letter he in dicated Oakland, Sutherlin and Canyonville schools had agreed to a postponement to help harvest the area's approximate $200,000 bean crop. He said Douglas High School had agreed to a postponement if Roseburg district delayed its open ing. He explained it is "important that there be enough pickers avail able to enable growers to keep I the Deans picnea aauy u ta 10 I prevent them from dropping in grade and becoming cuus. Bean Picking Prices Told Bean growers in the Douglas County area will offer the same wages to pickers this year as they did last two and a half cents per ) pound, with a one quarter cent bonus for pickers staying the sea son. According to John Richardson of the state Employment Service office, Burks and Son at Winston Dillard started picking on a limit cd scale Wednesday, but" most growers plan to start picking the early part of next week. Two fields out of the six in the immediate area Wesley Newman's on Mel rose Road and Robert Johnson's at Cleveland Rapids had pick ers on the job today. There arc 13 bean grovers in the county, and 204 acres of beans have been planted. The majority 104 acres have been planted to the Blue Lake var-ly, and the re mainder to Ronianos. Richardson said if the weather prevails as it is, there will be lots of beans. Dole, Inc., a Salem concern, is the principal bean buyer. The beans will be trucked each day to northern canneries. Richardson said there are no new fields this year. McFarland at Myrtle Creek didn't plant this year, but Burks took over the acreage. A good many pickers have been signed up already, Richardson said, but the employment office will "Ave information to those de- ' siring employment. As pickers are needed, the growers will inform the office, which will then make public service announcements. Pi-ospcctive pickers may then come to the employment office, and personnel there will refer them to tile employers needing them.
