SPOKANE, Wash. Look what Frank W. Elmore of Spokane, Wash.,
wears on his head a hat radio. The dial is in front, tubes sticking
up like horns on top and that circular thing is the aerial. A pocket
battery, earphones and some other equipment inside the helmet
do the rest. Just the thing for a gardener, says Elmore, an elec
trician. His hat tunes in all the local radio stations. (AP Wirephoto

W. M. Tugman, editor of the
Eugene Register-Guard has just ;
completed a shuttle trip across the j
United States. He not only "shut- !
tied" east and west but nortn
and south. And as he traveled
he dipped his bucket into Ameri
cana. What hi. came up with he
set down in travel letters to his
paper.
His was indeed a journey of
exploration, not so much into the
surface features of America, the
street canyons of the cities, the
rivers and the mountains, but into
Viiiman varieties which DeODle
the continent. He studied America
thrmio-h the Characters tnat ne
met: the "librul" employe in the
TV A nffire at Knoxville (and the
nipped individualist editor who !
va; hostile to TVA), the old edi
tor now retired to Martha's Vine
yard who had fired him as cub
reporter, professors at Harvard,
a Negro woman and the high
school student whom he picked
up while driving along the high
way in Georgia, the anti-Truman
Texan in the club car of the Sun
set limited, the bum taking a sun
bath in Union Square, San Fran
cisco. He summed up his impressions
in these paragraphs with which
he ended his Americana Epistles:
America is the sum of millions
of loyalties and some of them can !
be misguided or mispiacea, dux
the essential loyalties run very
deep. Again and again we have
been reminded of Whitman's lines:
"A GREAT CITY is that which
has the greatest men and women
... if it be but a few ragged huts,
it is still the greatest city in the
world."
The power of America is not
in Washington. D. C. It springs
out of the soil in every corner of
the land. It attaches to the most
unlikely and difficult places. It is
a thing inseparable from freedom
and dignity in man.
Out of the soil!
Tugman has given his readers a
fresh version of "Ballad for
Americans."

Major communications points

(With the settlement of the
Western Union strike, the Salem
office will return immediately to
its normal hours, 6:30 a.m. to

said Sunday night.
(The office has been operating

five additional workers will go
back on duty, probably today, he
said.)
The agreement which resulted in

Third of U. S. Business
Linked to Defense Effort
WASHINGTON (JP) - Top gov

they estimated.
Commie PW on Koje Forming
Army, Gen. Boatner Says
KOJE ISLAND (JP) - Tough
Communist leaders in this big
stockade are forging a crudely
equipped army to beat back any
attempt by United Nations forces
to impose control over 80,000
North Korean and Chinese pris
oners of war.
That is the virtually unanimous
conclusion of the American and
South Korean soldiers who have
been watching the surly, rebel
lious prisoners for months.
A careful survey of the prison
island's 17 occupied compounds
supports that ominous conclusion.
Brig. Gen. Haydon L. Boatner
Monday said the Reds probably
could have won control of the
island a week or two ago "if they
had wanted."
The Reds, still holding uncon
tested control , inside their com
pounds, were frusy Monday ham
mering out knives and spears.
Johnny Says Silent 'I Do
Sings 6Cryy for Admirer
By HENRIETTA LEITH
NEW YORK (jP)-Johnny Ray, the crooner who cries more than
he croons, was inaudible for several minutes Sunday at his own
wedding.
Ray and Marilyn Morrison, the daughter of a California night
club owner, were married in a quiet ceremony in a private suite at
the Hotel Warwick in mid-Manhattan.
Mayor and Mrs. Vincent Impel
litteri were among the 40-odd
guests.
Uninvited guests were a fluctu
ating crowd of bobbysoxers.
They hung around the hotel
lobby and the sidewalk outside
for more than two hours to get a
glimpse of the man who made
weeping in public fashionable
through his records.
Just before the ceremony Ray
said he was "paralyzed,"
Afterwards he said he felt much
better and couldn't get over "how
nice that 'Mr. and Mrs.' sounds."
But during the ceremony Ray
lost his famous voice almost com
pletely. Even in the small room, none
could hear him say "I do."
The ceremony was performed
by Special Sessions JudRe Herman
Barshay, who ended the proceed
ings with:
"I sentence each of you to a
life of health, contentment and
happiness."
Then Ray allowed a representa
tive from the bobbysoxers to come
up-Jeans-clad
Rene MagTisso, 14-year-old
head of a Ray fan club
in Brooklyn, listened in awe as
the weeping crooner reeled off one

To top things off, he kissed her
and gave her a sip of champagne.

j The singer and his bride hur
ried off to their reception.
Parents 'Dazed'
Almost as dazed as the lucky
bobbysoxer were Ray's parents,
1 Mr. and Mrs. Elmer Ray of Rose-
burg, Ore.
The singer's father, a millwright
for 30 years, recently retired.
"Johnny did that." he explained.
He added that they would soon
move onto a big new farm Johnny
had bought them at Salem, Ore.
He thought the wedding and re
ception, and meeting people like
Milton Berle, were "terrific."
Motherly-looking Mrs. Ray said
she wasn't too surprised she had
always thought Johnny would
amount to something, ever since
he started playing the piano at
the age of two.
"But we never expected quite
this," she said. "As the New York
ers say it's fabulous."

To Become Pilot
LONDON (JP) - The Sunday
newspaper, The People, said the
Duke of Edinburgh is planning to
become a pilot. It said Queen
PIiTaKfith TT ic onvinm tr havp
her husband pilot her on as many
trips as possible, but that there
is opposition in some court circles
to having him do this.
The Duke will take his flying
training in the Navy, where he
holds a commission, The People
said.
They have some guns seized from
guards. Piles of stones are stacked
ready for use. And they have
stocks of gasoline intended for
cooking but useful for making the
dreaded firebombs or "Molotov
cocktails" which are a favorite
weapon of partisans.
Boatner said the condition was
serious before the arrival of battle-tested
American troops.
The new commander of the
stormy prisoner of war camps
said the situation had changed.
He said Army authorities now
control the prisoners outside the
compound.
But Boatner admitted that
Communist prisoner leaders still
held sway inside Koje's 17 barbed
wire enclosures.
Boatner's remarks were made
in a talk to British and Canadian
troops who landed on Koje Sun
day to bolster the security garrison.

6 Men Missing,
One Dead as
Ships Collide
WILMINGTON, Del. (JP) - Two
ships collided shortly before mid
night in the Delaware River 15
miles south of her Sunday night.
At least one seasan was reported
dead. Two were rescued and at
least six others reported missing.
The names of the seamen in
volved in the crash were not im-t
mediately available. The Coast
Guard identified the ships as the
10,441 ton tanker Michael, owned
by J. M. Carros, Inc., of New York,
and the oil barge E. D. Dodge.
The Dodge exploded after the
collision. The boat split in two
and observers said the stern sec
tion sank while the bow remained ,
afloat but burning.
Latest reports said the tanker
Michael was afloat and burning
but was trying to limp to port, I
presumably to Wilmington. I
One of the two rescued men ;
was reported in critical condition.'
The other reportedly told the!
Coast Guard there were nine men
aboard the barge Dodge. Previous :
estimates said there were 40 men
aboard the Michael. 1

Pair Attempt to
Cross Atlantic
On Rubber Raft
MONTE CARLO, Monaco f.
Two men set out Sunday to cross
the Atlantic Ocean in a tiny rub
ber life raft which carries not an
ounce of food. Their purpose is
to prove that shipwreck victims
or downed airmen can live on the
food and water of the sea.
Dr. Alain Bombard of France
is head of the tiny expedition.
With him is Jack Palmer, a na
tive of Chiswick, Eng., but now a
naturalized citizen of Panama.
The raft, 16 feet long and seven
feet wide and named "L'Hereti
que" (The Heretic), was towed
out into the Medierranean before
dawn and cast adrift 10 miles from
shore.
Equipment aboard Includes a
sail, two pairs of oars, a radio
transmitter, two cameras, 3,000
yards of film and a harpoon.
The two men expect to live on
fish and whatever sea plant life
they can collect. For water, they
will use a mixture of the liquid
squeezed from harpooned fish and
sea water.
They expect to make their first
landfall at Gibraltar in three to
four weeks and then drift on
across the Atlantic to the West In
dies. Their only power is the sail
and the oars.

&
, there'll likely be the devil to pay
in Western Europe. Stalin's hid
den legions already must be gath
ering their forces for the grand
assault.
The big question will be this:
How far will the Russians dare
to push?
Here are some things we can
look for:
GERMANY: The Russians ap
parently are ready to take the
wraps off their thinkly masked
East German army, threatening
West Germany with another Ko
rea. It is likely to be only a
threat. A Korea-like attack in
Germany would mean all-out
war, and the Russian do not
a withdrawal. The Oder-Niesse
Line is hard bv. But the propa-
We can be fairlv surei howeve
of lncreased harassment in West
Beriin
'
Vie can expect the Communists
to hlt hard on the "national front
campaign in Germany, appealing
to German dreams, German na-
I tionalism, German pride, German
I fears and German weaknesses.
We can expect a concerted as
sault of the Adenauer government.
We can expect an attempt to lure
the strong West German social
ists into an alliance of opportunity
against the Adenauer coalition.
FRANCE: Look for the political
strike to be worked to a fare-thee-well.
Dress rehearsals al
ready have been under way. In
the Communist-controlled Gener
al Confederation of Labor (OGT),
the strongest of France's three
major labor confederations, the
hard Communist core could rally
perhaps 20 per cent of the OGT
members to do the Kremlin's bid
ding. It would be enough to create
chaotic conditions. Cells of sabo
teurs and strike agitators are be
ing schooled for action.
ITALY: Strikes, mass demon
strations, sabotage and a strong
offensive on the political front are
in the offing. The divide-and-con-quer
technique is being polished
up. The Communists will be play
ing heavily on Italy's economic
troubles, blaming the United
States and the defense buildup
for unemployment.
Lots of Communists
Italy has more card-carrying
Communist Party members than
any other Western country. Many
of these are Communists only be
cause of their economic troubles.
The hard core of the party is
still small and tightly knit. But
the Communists have a trump in
their control of the biggest labor
group.
So far as Europe is concerned,
the Russians seem likely to con
fine themselves to using their front
groups in the Western countries.
They cannot be expected to take
the West German peace contract,
with all its implications, lying
down. 1
It seems a good guess that they
will push just so far perhaps to
the edge of the precipice, but not
over it.

Objections by
France Erased
By Negotiators
BONN, Germany UP) - A pe
contract giving West Germany -nough
freedom to enter an armed
alliance with the West was com
pleted here Sunday. Last-ninut
French objections were overcome
after long hours of negotiation.
The contract is to be sigsed
Monday by the Big Three foreign
ministers and Chancellor Kocrad
Adenauer in a ceremony starting
at 10 a. m. (1 a. m., PST.)
But on the very day the historic
document was completed, the Rus
sians made their third demand in
three months for a four-power
conference to frame a peace treaty
for a united and completely "sov
ereign" Germany.
It was Moscow's newest movt
in the strueele for Oermanv
parently another baited bid to keep
me uermans out of the Western
camp.
The West German pact a par
tial peace treaty for only part of
the former enemy Reich will net
be published until after the sign
ing ceremony.
To Create Army
It will end the occupation, grant
the federal republic near sover
eignty and, combined with the sa
nation treaty to create a million
man European army with 400,000
Germans in it, bind the 48 million
Germans west of the Iron Curtain
to Free Europe.
The latter treaty is slated fr
signature in Paris Tuesdaj-.
Neither pact is effective until
ratified and both face long and
spiritual parliamentary battles, es
pecially in Bonn and Paris, whera "
strong political groups art hostile
to the projects.
In two days of meetings here,
America's Dean Acheson, Britairr'a
Anthony Eden, France's Robert
Schuman and the 76-year-ki
German Chancellor ironed out thm
last few points blocking comple
tion of the pact, which had oeen
in negotiation a year.
Demands Settled
which for a time threatened to
which for a time threatened tot
block the signing were virtually
settled Sunday. The negotiators
agreed on the wording of a British-American
guarantee to pre
vent Germany breaking out f
the European army and becttore
again a menace to her nfiphhnn
Allied officials were confident it
would quite French fears.
But while the way apparently
has been cleared for Schumaa to
sign Monday it was still an open
question whether the guarantee
would satisfy the French suffici
ently to enable the two pacts to
be ratified.
