On board
USS Bon Homme Richard
at Sea
The "Bon Homme" is spending
the week in naval operations in an
area of the Pacific 100-150 mi. off
the coast of Southern California,
south of San Clemente island. One
of the big naval carriers, its pres
ent task is to give training for
fliers of jet and propeller-type
planes in take-off and landing and
to the crews handling and ser
vicing the planes.
The carrier operates in a defined
area and is accompanied by a de
stroyer which sails aft when
planes are being flown so it can
take part in rescue operations if
necessary. A helicopter hovers
nearby, to pick up an aviator if
he should land his plane in the
sea, as one did on Monday. The
plane, of course, was lost, but the
pilot was picked up by the heli
copter. Between flight operations
it is grounded on the carrier's
flat top.
Propeller planes take off on
their own power as a rule. The
jets are shot into the- air by a
catapult which operates like the
ancient Greek weapon of that
name. The principle is like that of
the nigger-shooter, except that in
stead of a spring or piece of elastic
propulsion is furnished by the
cable moved by powerful hy
draulic compression. A shuttle
fastened to the cable operates in
a slot on the deck. A steel "bridle"
is fastened to an under part of
the plane and to the shuttle.
When the lever is pulled and com
pression released the cable pulls
the plane which already has its
own power plant running and
hurls it off the end of the run
way and into the air. The tie-clip
breaks and the bridle returns
with the return of the. shuttle.
The most difficult part of the
operation is the landing of the
planes. They fly off in a circle
and come back like homing
pigeoas. Tne pilot

Steel Seizure
Defense Given
By President
WASHINGTON (JP)- President
Truman stoutly defended his steel
industry seizure Sunday and said
he acted within his constitutional
powers.
Truman gave his views in a let
ter made public by the White
House in reply to one about the
seizure from a questioning citi
zen, C. S. Margery Jones, a farm
operator at Washington Crossing,
Pa.
"I feel sure that the Constitu
tion does not require me to en
danger our national safety by let
ting all the steel mills shut down
in this critical time," Truman
wrote Jones.
The letter was released as both
Republican and Democratic mem
bers of Congress continued fj.
voice criticism of the seizure and
a federal judge here, David A.
Pine, was getting ready to rule in
a day or two on the legality of
the action.
Asst. Atty-Gen. "Holmes Bald
ridge, in defending the seizure
before Judge Pine, had argued
that Truman had unlimited pow
ers in an emergency under the
Constitution and that the courts
lacked authority to interfere with
exercise of those powers.
Truman, himself, seemed to
have a somewhat narrower ver
sion of his authority, saying exe
cutive powers "are limited, of
course, by the provisions of the
Constitution, particularly those
that protect the rights of indivi
duals." Truman said the idea of gov
ernment operation of the steel
mills was "distasteful to me," and
he only took them over for the
government "as a matter of neces
sity to meet an extreme emer
gency." Animal Crackers

the Korean armistice crisis Mon
day, agreed? immediately to off-the-record

The top-level negotiators met
Monday morning for the first

South African
Group Warns
Malan Faction
CAPETOWN, South Africa (JP)
The Torch Commando warned
Prime Minister Daniel F. Malan
Sunday night it will meet "action
with action" If his Nationalist re
gime moves against it, or illegally
tampers with the union's consti
tution. Leaders of the 175,000-strong
i veteran s group iormea wun me i
: avowed aim of unseating Malan s
white supremacist government
announced after a two-day council
they are ready to fight to the end
to save "this dictatorship-threatened
country."
In a blunt statement, the Torch
men declared "we are determined
to preserve . . . our democratic
way of life and rule of law come
what may."
Commando leaders had assem
bled here from the union's four
provinces to discuss how they can
stop Malan's regime from putting
through a bill turning all the mem
bers of the Senate and Assembly
into a Supreme Court to judge
whether parliamentary acts are
constitutional.
The bill, which passed its first
reading last Wednesday, was Ma
lan's answer to the Appeals Su
preme Court which threw out his
law restricting voting rights of
colored persons of mixed blood in
the Cape Province. Full debate on
the controversial bill begins in
Parliament Wednesday.

No reason was given for the
indefinite recess.
The crisis possibly a turning
point in the truce talks revolved
around what to do about the
67,699 Korean and Chinese Red
soldiers in Allied hands who say
they do not want to be released
to the Communists.
The Korean truce talks reached
a perilous stage Friday when the
Reds broke off secret negotia
tions on the thorny problem of
exchanging prisoners.
The Reds have insisted on
forced repatriation for all mili
tary prisoners and the Allies de
mand the right of choice for each
prisoner.
A tight deadlock persisted,
also, on two main issues of truce

Fascists
Revive
In Italy
ROME (JP) - Fascism's follow
ers massed 50,000 strong in the
heart of Rome Sunday to jeer at
Democracy and Communism in a
scene unduplicated since Allied
armies overthrew Mussolini.
"Rescue Rome from the incom
petence of the Christian Demo
crats and the barbarism of the
Tartar borders of Communism,"
shouted white-haired Augusto de
Marsanich, veteran of the 1922
Black Shirt march on Rome. He
spoke hand on hip, apeing Mus
solini's mannerism.
Applause roared up from the
followers of his openly pro
Fascist Italian Social Movement
jammed into the Piazza del Popolo.
The pro-Fascist meeting high
lighted Sunday's opening of a
campaign to win control of Rome
and 2,400 other Italian commu
nities in the May 25 municipal
elections.
In poverty-stricken Calabria to
the south, Communist Boss Pal
rniro Togliatti whose Red follow
ers are given an equal chance of
capturing Rome, Naples and Bari
cried out for a Communist vic
tory. Anti-C o m m u n i s t and anti
Fascist Premier Alritfe de Gasperi
called for support of his pro
American, middle - of - the - road
government in a major address at
Naples.
The Communists revealed their
campaign ace-in-the-hole Aligh
iero Tondi, a Jesuit priest who
turned Communist two days ago.
Tondi published a blistering
charge that the De Gasperi gov
ernment has "bound Italy, hand
and foot, to the foreigner."
The center group, dominated by
he Christian Democrats, refused
to join the extreme right pro
Fascists and monarchists in a sin
gle anti-Communist front.
Thus the anti-Cmmtmnlst -votr
is split, enhancing Communist
election chances.

Medford in Southern Oregon voted
Saturday to advance store hours.
A meeting of the merchants
group is tentatively planned for
May 6 to discuss the time question,
Adlon said Sunday, but might be
advanced in view of the rising
sentiment elsewhere in the state
in favor of hour changes.
Plans No Action
Mayor Alfred Loucks said Sun
day he planned no action regard
ing the time.He also said he knew
of no action planned by any mem
ber of the city administration,
though the time question might be
discussed at tonight's meeting of
the city council.
Much of the nation, including
many of Oregon's radio stations,
went on daylight saving time at
2 a.m. Sunday. Gov. Douglas Mc
Kay decided there was insuffi
cient sentiment for so-called fast
time last week and kept the state
on standard time. He announced
later he would not reconsider the
time change.
Evidence Cited
In Portland, where the Ciry
Council members say they will
proclaim daylight time despite
Gov. McKay's standard time rul
ing, the Portland Oregonian cited
evidence which it said might be
used in the event of a court fight
over the city's fast time revolt.
As quoted by the Associated
Pres. the most significant evi
dence was a quotation from the
governor's proclamation last year
proclaiming daylight time:
"I am advised by competent le
gal counsel that nothing in the law
would prevent any municipality
from changing its time if it wished
to do so."
Another bit of "evidence" was
the "home rule" provision of the
state constitution which says that
"the legislative assembly shall not
enact, amend or repeal any char
ter or act of incorporation for
any municipality of town." Port
land, it was pointed out, has on
its charter a voter-approved
amendment providing for fast
time.
Boy Strangled
By Lamp Cord
VANCOUVER, Wash. (JP) - An
11 -year-old boy was found dead
here Sunday morning, hanging by
a plastic lamp cord attached to
the door knob of his bedroom.
The parents, Mr. and Mrs. Paul
Lowry, found the boy, Gary, when
they went to awaken him for
breakfast. Attempts by his father
and attendants summoned to the
home with a first aid car failed
to revive him.
City Detective Julian Ulmer said
the cord was tight around the
boy's neck. It extended about one
foot to the knob. Gary was found
m a sitting position.
Ulmer said the boy may have
tied a practice knot, and made it
so tight that when he slammed
the door, it strangled him.
The coroner planned an autopsy.

Crash

USS Hobson
By WILLARD H. 3IOBLEY ff
WASHINGTON ( AP)-Tbe U. S. S. Hobson, a b!ttl
tested destroyer-minesweeper collided with the fameus
carrier Wasp Saturday night, and plunged to the bottom
in Mid-Atlantic. I
The Navy tairi 176 men were reported misting,
including the craf t' skipper. Sixty-one men "wer
snatched to safety out of a windy,
rolling sea.
In Charleston, S. C, Read Adm.
William V. O'Regan, minesweeper
commander at the home base of
the Hobson, said there had been
237 men aboard the ship.
In Washington, the Bureau of
Nval Personnel casualty section
said it was preparing "missing
telegrams for families of 176 men;
including seven officers and 169
enlisted, personnel.
No Word of Rescues
At a late hour Sunday night,
there was no further word of res
cues being conducted.
But during the afternoon. Navy
headquarters said they were still
going on. That was nearly a full
day after the crash in the rolling,
darkened seas.
The captain of the sunken,
battle-famed ship was 31-year-old
Lt. Cmdr. William J. Tlerney, of
Philadelphia. He had risen from
the ranks and won his commis
sion in 1941.
Full details of the accident were
not immediately given by naval
authorities.
The accident was one of the
greatest non-combat disasters the
Navy suffered in recent times.
On Feb. 28, 1942, the U.S.S.
Truxton, a destroyer, and the Pol
lux, a cargo ship, were lost in a
storm off Newfoundland with 204
dead.
Hampered by Weather
Hobson rescue operations were
hampered by the dark, and by foul
weather.
The Wasp suffered a slashing
rip for 75 feet along her bow
plates, the Navy reported. Sh was
headed for New York at reduced
speed 10 knots. There were no
casualties reported aboard the big
carrier.
Fleet headquarters spotted ' the
scene of the collision as 1,200
miles due east of Boston and 700
from The Azores.
It was announced that the col
lision occurred as the Wasp turned
into the wind to recover aircraft
which were returning from a sim
ulated night strike against other
ships in the task group, en route
to the Mediterranean.
A Little to Rear
The Hobson and another de
stroyer minesweeper, the Rodman,
were trailing the Wasp in plane
guard stations meaning they
were a little to the rear in position
to pick up men in the event any
of the carrier's planes were
ditched in attempting to land.
Fleet headquarters said that nor
mal speed for the Wasp in such
maneuvers as were being conduct
ed at the time of the collision is
about 20 to 25 knots and that the
Hobson and the Rodman would
have been making the same speed.
The Hobson was hit on the star
board (right) side. The Navy said
it had no information as to how
long she stayed afloat.
The lost Hobson. built as a de
stroyer and converted to a fast
minesweeper helped with the
landing at Casablanca in North
Africa, took part in the strike in
Bodo, Norway, and sank the Ger
man submarine U575. She later
steamed to the Pacific and took a
leading part in cleaning up waters
around Okinawa for the American
landing.
