Vandenberg's Papers Declare Truman Considered Phoning Stalin in 1948 Crisis By JOHN M. niGIITOWER WASHINGTON AJfy The priTate papers of the late Senator Ar thur Vandenberg disclosed Saturday that during one dangerous im passe with Russia President Truman talked about telephoning per sonally to Generallissimo Stalin "to see what he could do with him." The President's famous project for sending Chief Justice Fred Vinson on a peace mission to Moscow had just bee nipped by Secre tary of State Marshall. It was 1948 - and a critical time The Truman-Dewey presidential campaign was at fever heat. The Russians were blockading Berlin. The world was gripped by war fears. There was apprehension here that the Kremlin would try to take advantage o American political, differences to act worse abroad, and possibly stumble into war.

Bi-Partisan Policy It illuminates the working re lationship which the Republican senator had with the leaders of the opposition party even in an election year. The 599-page volume of Van denberg's papers a record of the senator's conversion from "isola tionist" to "internationalist'' and of his influence on great affairs through the last decade is to be published next Tuesday by Hough ton Mifflin Company, Boston. Senator Vandenberg's son, Ar thur Jr., his assistant through 14 years, edited the letter, diary and scrapbook selections that make up the volume. It mainly covers the time from 1939 to Vandenberg's ; hood of which L. A. Meyer is pre death of cancer on April 18, 1951. sident. Harold A. Larsen was pro Had A-Bomb Veto gram chairman and served as Chief among the book's disclos- ures about the events on which Vandenberg had inside knowledge are these: 1. Britain formerly had a veto over American use of the atomic bomb. This was provided in war time agreements between the late President Roosevelt and Prime Minister Churchill, arranging for joint development of the weapon in the first place. The eto agreement ended in January, 1948, the wartime Amer ican -British -Canadian partnership having dissolved and final decision on use of the bomb passed into the hands of the President. 2. In July, 1949 at a Blair House meeting recognized as sensational at the time President Truman pro posed to share America's A-bomb secrets with Britain and Canada by reviving full atomic partner ship with them. He said the British and Canadi ans wanted this and it would ben efit American atomic develop ments. Vandenberg opposed such sharing. He urged Britain should cooperate without getting the se crets. 3. In the years before his death Vandenberg envisioned Gen e r a 1 Dwight D. Eisenhower as a Re publican presidential possibility. On Dec. 12, 1949, he wrote "his friend Dr. Isiah Bowman, Johns Hopkins University geographer, responding to a suggestion that If Salem has enjoyed through Eleanor Steber Helen Traubel Gladys Swarthout Minneapolis Symphony -John Charles Thomas James Melton Dorothy Maynor Dorothy Kirsten Leonard Warren Shaw Chorale I - Leaders Plan Discussion of City Problems Common municipal problems will be discussed by city officials and civic leaders frbm Marion and Polk Counties at a meeting at the nator Hotel at 6.30 p.m. Thurs- throlJgrioUt trie state this spring Informal discussion sessions will be the rule for most of the meet- ii'ifYt t o 1 Lr o Kif A rOitnrc of trio "'K. will, voijvo uj u.j... lis. w.v. league and other officials.

Punishment Won't Stop Crime, Pen Warden Explains SILVERTON "Punishm e n t won't stop a criminal from com mitting crime," Virgil O'Malley, warden of the Oregon State Peni tentiary told 116 boys and men at the first annual father-son ban quet at Trinity Lutheran Church Friday night. The event was spon sored by the Lutheran Brother- : toastmaster. Hal Moe and Aiden Clemetson assisted . with banquet arrangements. The reason that punishment doesn't stop ciime, accorriipg to O'Malley, is that the criminal never believes he is thhe one who et caught. Threats and fears OI punisnmeru simpiy oo run ap- ply to him, as far as thhe indivi dual criminal believes. "Ninety-eight per cent of those now in the pen are going to be turned loose. They may eventual ly be your neighbors. You don't want them to come out with the same attitude they had when they went in, do you?" O'Malley want ed to know, as he told of how the prison officials were trying to change that attitude of the prison- ', ers, trying to fit them for normal ' life alter their parole or release. ; Also on the entertainment agen da Friday night was Jack Spong, Salem magician. Eisenhower would make the par ty's strongest candidate in 1952. j Vandenberg replied "we may find j ourselves 'riding the same horse.'

Commercial Street Oregon Youth Legislature Passes 6 Bills By NOEMAN LUTHER Statesman School Correspondent Six bills, three of them intro duced by Salem Hi-Y chapters, were passed yesterday as the fifth annual Oregon Youth Legislature mock session came to an end. The YMCA sponsored session brought more than 175 Hi-Y and Tri-Y members to the Capitol. During the two days, delegates carry out duties of representatives, senators and other officers of the legislature including governor. Boy governor Victor Walch, LaGrande, signed a bill provid ing, the payment of expenses of the Oregon Historical Society, sub mitted by the Ontario Hi-Y club, after it had lost out in the senate but was later passed there after reconsideration. A bill to establish liquor licen ses with photographs, etc., intro duced by the Salem J. R. Mott Hi-Y chapter, passed easily in both the house and senate and j received the "governor's'' signa- 1 ture. State Motto Suggested i A bill to decree "The Union" to be the official state motto, put1 up by a Portland Hi-Y club, got j through with little opposition or discussion. A McMinnville Hi-Y club bill to provide for compulsory exami j nation of all drivers involved in j an automobile accident to ascer j tain if they are under the influ ! ence of alcohol was passed after 1 much discussion in both the house and the senate. Probably the most controver sial bill of the session was a bill to establish a board of censorship of indecent periodicals and other publications submitted by the Sa- Gold Arrow Restaurant Open T2 Noon - 10 P.M.

Least Opposition The Salem chapter Abel Gregg Hi-Y bill, which provides, more severe punishment for narcotics peddlers, had the least opposition of any of the bills. It passed through the house unanimously. A bill, providing for an Oregon motor vehicle inspection law, which created long discussions, was vetoed by Governor Walch on the basis that it violated the state constitution. Other highly controversial bills which were turned down in the house or senate were a change in the compulsory school age to a bill to change the legal age to 16 and one relating to more rigid control of state expenditures with a provision for maximum state indebtedness. 1 Salem' only home-owned Theatre" Starts Today Cont. 1:45 UtFUM ranocu HEAL Co-Feature M .m.
