The OHIGON STATESMAN. Salem. Oregon, Wednesday Morning. March 23. If 44 PAGE TO? Girl Denies Asking Chaplin For 8150,000 By GENE HANDSAKER f LOS ANGELES, March 28 W) Charlie ' Chaplin's suave, fortyish butler testified almost inaudibly at the commedian's Mann act trial today that Chaplin had admitted having sexual intercourse with Joan Berry both in a New York hotel and his Beverly 5 Hills home.- The first day of the trial's se cond week closed after an hour long plea by the film funnyman's attorney for a directed verdict of acquittal. " ,:. v; , Miss Berry denied during ad ditional cross '- examination to day that she had demanded a (150,000 cash settlement from the actor on the contention that he was the father . of her daughter, Carol Ann, now 5 months old. She has filed, a " paternity suit in county superior court naming Chaplin, and in this connection Chaplin's attorneys filed a peti tion in state supreme court today. It r seeks to uphold a defense prosecution stipulation agreeing to dismissal of the paternity suit if blood tests indicated the ; actor was not the father. Three physi cians reported such a 1 conclusion after making the tests.! The Butler, Edward Charles Chaney, jwas the day's new witness-stand star. ! Chaney's testimony corroborated Miss Berry's. Giesler said in his opening statement that the actor -would deny there was any act of sexual intercourse in New York. X-ray for But FDR Laughs WASHINGTON, March 28. j'P) president Roosevelt went to the fcayal hospital today for x-rays because of the persistence of a . case of bronchitis which he has had now for three weeks. Jt Telling his press-radio confer ence about it, Mr. Roosevelt said He felt fine aside from the ail ment which kept him coughing and wheezing even as he talked with the reporters. "You dont view yourself with alarm?" a reporter asked. Laughing, the president said not $4 all. .About one ease of bron chitis out of 48,500 develops into pneumonia, he remarked, but he would not put that into the head lines, j ; - 1 Mr. Roosevelt! kept to his living quarters in the White House most f last week because of a cold and the bronchial trouble, his .. secretariat reported that he ran 90 fever, however, and he held - his regular Friday . conferences , with the cabinet and the press. He was in good spirits today, shing a woman reporter by tell ing her she should go into har vesting, and enjoying a couple of laughs at the expense of his sec retary, Stephen Early, over the tact that a Georgia publisher had proposed Early as the democratic candidate for vice president., Laughingly, Mr. Roosevelt wanted to know whether Early was a citizen. He said he knew Early came from down around Charlottesville (Va.) and once was a citizen, but that was before the Civil dar and he didn't know how he stood now. " Dewey May Enter Primary in Oregon SPOKANE, Wash, March 28 (P)-The Spokesman-Review said tonight -the name of Gov. Thomas E. Dewey of New York would be entered in Oregon's preferential primary May 19. The article pointed out that the consent of a candidate was not re quired for the placing of his name before Oregon voters, but that the name of any person could be en tered - by the filing of petitions, bearing the signatures of 1000 re gistered voters, with the secretary of state. -' The required number of signs lures have been obtained and the petition for Dewey will be filed this week, the article said, adding: "This action was the result of A spontaneous movement and de spite positive requests from Gov. Dewey that the petitions be with drawn. When Wendell ; WUlkie visited Oregon in February he announced he would be a candi date, hence a contest for Oregon's .preferential vote is assured." .. The : newspaper recalled that Charles Evans Hughes brought suit to remove bis name" when it was placed on the Oregon ballot in 1916, but the supreme court "held that this right of Oregon repub licans was an absolute right, of which the candidate could not de prive the voters. . , Pen sions for Judges Optional, Says Neuner The secretary of state has no au thority to deduct any part of the salaries of supreme court and "circuit court judges,' under a 1943 legislative session law, providing pensions for these officials, until ' after they have consented to come under the act Attorney General ' George Neuner ruled here Tues- The law provides that supreme ' court and circuit court judges ihall contribute three per cent cf their salaries to the pension fund provided they come un the law.

Bonneville Rates Drop To New Low 1 PORTLAND, Ore March 28 (Py-Sharp reductions in Bonne ville wholesale power rates were announced today by Administra tor Paul J. Raver. j i'- j Northwest public agencies hav ing no generating capacity , and purchasing substantially all r of their- power -requirements from the Bonneville administration will save from 15 to 30 per cent on their power costs under the new E-2 wholesale rate approved, by the - federal ; power commission, Raver estimated. I Charges for irrigation and drainage pumping service will be reduced approximately f 16 per cent he said, with wholesale ser vice as low as 2.5 miles; per kilowatt-hour depending on jthe num ber of hours of use. i i i ' "This new wholesale! rate has been designed' to encourage wide spread development in j irrigation throughout the northwest to help increase the region's food produc tion for war, and to stimulate rec lamation and irrigation of land for peace," a statement by Raver said. The lower rate also was design ed to stimulate other postwar uses for-electricity, particularly in the field of home appliances and house heating, the administrator laid." " . ' 1 Raver said that - although Bon neville's wholesale rates were the lowest in the United States it al ready had built up surplus reve nues. , Y "This move will help 'the econ omy of the region, he. said, "op en new opportunities for manu facturers of appliances, pumps, heating units, etc, add to the com forts of the home and at the same time increase the revenues to the government through greater sales of power." I ! fB' Gas Ration Due ) I flfi Tnrrpnep Srtrkn I 1 I :: I WASHINGTON, March 28H) Rationing. Chief Bryan Houston said tonight that while jthe office of price administration! hopes to increase the "B" gasoline ration, a decision cannot be made for at least 30 days. Asserting that "It is basic OPA policy to ration out all, the gaso- line mat is allocated to it col. Houston added in a Blue network broadcast: J "We hope to be able, in keep ing with that policy, to increase i the ration allotment of people who need gasoline to earn: a living. However, such a ration the "B" ration will be increased only when and if there is enough gas oline to spare. f "Tha question that arises ; is are we saving enough gasoline to make an increase in the 'B' ration possible? I wish I could answer that now, but I can't I can't even begin to tell you for t least 30 days. I -can say, however, ; that OPA will be just as liberal as al- locations permit." Earlier, a spokesman for CoL Houston had said tha$ assuming continued progress against the gasonne Diacx marxet, an increase in tne d ration to a maximum of 720 miles, of driving a month would be made within; 30 days to six weeks. Maximum "B" ration levels at present are 400 miles a month in five far west states, 325 miles in the east, and 475 miles' in the rest of the country.

Control for 3,500,000 4-Fs By WILLIAM T. PEACOCK WASHINGTON, March 28-4J) President Roosevelt indicated : to day that he still favors enactment of national service legislation al though Manpower Chairman Paul V. McNutt told congress there Is no present need for U.J6 The chief executive declined di rect comment at his press-radio conference on McNutt's statement but on the question of how best to Use manpower, he declared there are a lot of people who are not aiding in the war, that it is a matter for soul searching and pple won't f? OWn; 5ULU9 SUJUCVHie M1UU1U UU 11 for them. Asked about a suggestion from Selective Service Director ; Lewis B. Hershey that 4F's be drafted for work battalions, particularly for harvesting, Mr. Roosevelt said that left out a lot of other groups. Help with harvests is needed, he added, from many others high school boys and girls and even newspapermen. Every one who Dossiblv can should be helping to win the war, he said. Asked directly how his views on national service jibed with Mc Nutt's statement the . president said he would first have to read the I complete statement of. the manpower chairman. Opposing a national service law now, McNutt expressed the opin ion there might be "real merit" in the idea of job controls over 4F's McNutt also said there was "ev- ery possibility," as a result of the army's demand for younger men, that occupational deferments will be denied or seriously restricted later for ''all men under 28 or ev en 30." Selective Service Director Lew- Hershey told a Prpvidence, RI, Rotary club meeting that he was ready to ask the armed ser vice to induct into work battal ions .any 4F registrants who are abu to work but are not contri- buting "materially and substan tially" to the war effort j "The time has passed wben any citizen of the United States can sit by and not give his full effort to winning this war," he ; said.

Lt Col. Alfred K. Du Moulin, back from Observation duty with the 34th infantry, told of the mine in a report today to Lt Gen. Les ley J. McNair, commanding gen eral of army ground forces. Known as' the "wooden shoe mine, tne anu-personnei device is made of plywood or plastic and is called "the worst curse" of all the enemy's weapons. Until the non-metallic mine appeared engi neers and infantry moving out in the wake of retreating enemy for ces could locate buried explosives with detectors -actuated by mag netism. The new mine, Du Moulin re ports, "looks like an innocent bar of soap but has enough TNT in it to blow off a man's foot when stepped on." j A kettle-shaped, portable pill box "is one of the most aston ishing defenses the Germans have developed," the observer said Although it is about five feet in diameter and six feet high, only the six-inch concrete dome and machine gun snout are visible when the pillbox is sunk into place. Camouflage makes it all but indistinguishable beyond ten yards. The pillbox Is equipped with a bellows to cool the gun and the two-man crew is kept warm by a small stove. "Our men can destroy it with Molotov cocktails (containers of gasoline which are ignited and tossed onto or into the target) after outflanking it" Du Moulin said, "but the hills are so stud ded with them that there always seems to be another one behind the pillbox just smashed." The nazis are adapting every feature of the rugged Italian ter rain to defensive use, he declared. "Our doughboys are glad when the Jerries mount an offensive then they can see them," Du Moulin asserted. ; A. , r-r-Tmvr w r t L M j 1 . j j 1 - 1 Ml 1 ' J.I ' 1 '41. Khrer on th FLrhth Arnv front to store water supplies, Nazis Drop Flares on Coast Toivns By GLADWIN HILL LONDON, March 2S.-JP)-The Germans, who are reinforcing their western front and warning their people of imminent attack. made an extensive and strong air raid against southern England last night which apparently was aimed i at allied invasion preparations. It was one of the heaviest aer ial attacks in two years outside London. . The Germans announced that their target was Bristol, one of England's prime ports and har bors. The British acknowledged only that considerable damage was; done to a coast town. The attacking force was com posed of between 100 and 200 planes, and it stirred strong coast al anti-aircraft batteries into one of their biggest barrages. At least 11 German planes were shot down. British casualties included at least nine persons killed by defective anti-aircraft shells in south Eng land and Wales. . The British defense searchlights were outshone in brilliance by a rain of German flares, apparent ly dropped to enable the Germans to take pictures of the allied in vasion establishment There has been plenty to pique German curiosity about southern England, where in recent months sizable segments of the civilian population have been evacuated to make room for the military. These developments, coincident with tactical -1 y p e bombing of railroad centers and air bases in France, combined to focus Ger man attention on Churchill's words of Sunday that "The hour is approaching," and that there are to be "Feints and rehearsals to deceive and baffle the enemy." It may be an indication that the Germans, with D-day approach ing, are swinging away from Lon don raids in favor of hitting tar gets more directly connected with Invasion possibilities. Certainly half-hour attacks through Lon don's fierce defenses leave little damage evident the next morning, while in the smaller target areas similar numbers of planes might land relatively heavier blows. Here's One Way to Get Those New Tires WAHIAWA, Oahn.

A larg er . submarine . beached and par tially submerged, later sank. Cmdr. Wood and Lt William F. Lewis of San Pedro, Calit, said the letter's salvage tug, operating with jdivers, had recovered a doz en other ships' anchors and 1000 fathoms of anchor chain. - Divers also investigated th wreck of one warship, probably a destroyer, lying on its side, and of a small merchant ship, upside down on the bottom. . " Other wrecks, some of them lo cated when our ship's anchors caught in them, were in deeper water or otherwise inaccessible to ready examination. j These included three destroyers in Reynard cove, all sunk in one daring torpedo' attack by an American submarine which went right into the: cove after them. A merchant ship with only the masts showing in the middle of the harbor is the 8700-ton motor ship Nissan Maru, built in 1939. Others are the 7500-ton Nazima Maru, built in 1934, and the 3600 ton coal-burning steamship Ura zio Maru, built in 1917. A souvenir was recovered by divers from the Nissan Maru and later presented to Lt Col. Rus sell Cone, whose army bomber was credited, with sinking the ship. It was ; a telescope from a three-inch gun. Empty shell cases by the gun indicated it had been firing at the plane, whose bombs ended the battle.
