Copter to Try to Take
Line to Grounded Ship
(Picture on page 6.)
ABERDEEN, Wash. (JP) Thirty-seven men remained aboard the
grounded and surf - battered freighter Yorkmar the third successive
night Wednesday night, with another helicopter-aided salvage effort
set for day-break Thursday.
A Coast Guard helicopter will then attempt to fly a light "mes
senger line" from the tug Salvage Chief, in deep water, across the
7,207-ton liberty ship s decks, so
a tow line may be pulled in place.
The weather thwarted such an ef
fort Wednesday.
Wallowing in the frothy seas
close to shore, .he Yorkmar was
being pushed around and had not
settled deep into the sand, the
Coast Guard reported.
The vessel, under Capt. Oscar
Kullbom, Portland, Ore., .rammed
on the beach 24 miles west of here
Monday inbound' to' Grays Harbor
from San Francisco.
Wednesday the cutter Balsam,
standing by in the moderating
weather, provided the Yorkmar
with equipment to cut her anchor
chains if necessary. The Yorkmar
dropped her anchors some distance
out as she drifted ashore,
Capt. Kullbom vetoed a press
proposal that newsmen and pho
tographers be permitted aboard to
watch rescue attempts. A Coast
Guard party stood by on the beach
to aid in removing the crew should
their help be asked.

weather permitting.
CoL Dimitrios Stampados, assist
ant commander of Stead Air
Force Base near here, said the
plane carried a crew of five and
one passenger, all from the Stead
base. He declined to release their
names.
Flying here from Peterson Field,
at Colorado Springs, Colo., the
plane was last heard from by radio
at 2:3: p. m. just west of the
Great Salt Lake in Utah.
Col Stampados said that, while
weather conditions in the area
were bad with high winds and
blinding snow flurries, there are 11
emergency landing fields between
here and Salt Lake.
"The plane is a tough old bird
and the crew is experienced. I
feel that they've probably put
down on some prairie and we'll
find them in the morning," he said.
Pay Increase for
Prisoners Sought
CONCORD. N. H. (fl A 68 per
eeot pay hike for 200 state prison
ers was asked Wednesday.
It would raise the present scale
from 15 cents to 25 cents daily.
Warden Parker L. Hancock, who
sought the increase, told Gov.-elect
Hugh Gregg the rate had not been
changed in 20 years and that infla
tion is imposing hardship on pris
oners desiring minor luxuries.

Killer Near
Times Square
NEW YORK UPi A killer with
a lust for gunplay was shot down
by a policeman early Wednesday
in a wildly blazing gun battle in
the Times Square area. Six other
persons. Including three policemen,
were hit.
At least eight policemen had a
hand in the running, pre-dawn gun
fight that surged along three
blocks on Eighth Avenue a Wild
West affray in the heart of sophis
ticated Manhattan.
The gunman, Clarence O. Sims,
37-year-old Negro holdup man from
Cleveland, all but got away as
whining bullets sent frightened
early morning passersby scramb
ling for cover.
However, Patrolman Cornelius
0Shea, 24, with only 18 months
on the force, intercepted Sims. The
courageous cop charged the gun
man, traded him shot for shot and
finally sent him spinning to the
pavement with bullets in his head
and hand.
Other policemen then closed in.
Sims' skull was fractured, his jaw
smashed.
Before, the gunman was taken to
a hospital, near death, O'Shea
was spending his last night in uni
form. He had been promoted to de
tective, effective Wednesday.

Army to Slow
Production of
Tanks, Trucks
By WILMOT HER CHER
WASHINGTON (JF The Army
announced Wednesday it will apply
the brakes to production of tanks
and trucks. Some plants will have
to close as a result of the slow
down.
Army spokesmen explained the
immediate needs of the Army are
close to being met. At the same
time strong production lines have
been established to meet future
needs.
Production of medium tanks will
be cut back to a point about 45
per cent below the original goal
set for the spring of 1954, the Army
said.
There will be a 22 per cent re
duction in the output of light tanks
and the manufacture of 2 ton
trucks will be slowed down.
Production rates of some other
basic weapons will be reduced
later, a spokesman said.
He emphasized that the slowdown
will not change the Army's origin
al equipment goals. Rather, it will
stretch out the delivery time of
some articles.
Some factories will have to close
down entirely, while others will be
forced to reduce their work crews
The new production schedule will
go into effect July 1, the beginning
of the next fiscal year, with gov-ernment-owe
plants slowing down
first.
As early as last September Sec
retary of Defense Lovett indicat
ed that he thought the time was
approaching when the production of
some hard goods might be leveled
off to what he called a sustain
ing rate."
He said at that time it was ob
vious that the Defense Department
Would have to readjust its sched
ule so as not to accumulate more
tanks and other equipment than
were needed for the U.S. armed
forces and the foreign assistance
program.
Beginning June 30, 1954, he said,
the procurement program would
serve two purposes to replace
worn out or destroyed equipment
and to maintain tank arsenals and
similar war goods factories with
enough orders to enable them to
stay in operation.
Multi-Party
Candidate Held
ForF
MEDFORD UPi Gene R. Brant
ley, who has been an unsuccessful
Republican, Democrat and Inde
pendent candidate in the past eight
months, was arrested Wednesday
on a charge of publishing a forged
document.
The document involved was a
nominating petition, intended to
place Brantley on the November
ballot as an Independent candidate
for county judge. The petition was
thrown out in early autumn by the
county clerk, who said investiga
tion showed forged names on the
sheets.
Brantley, who was defeated when
he tried to become delegate to the
Republican National Convention in
the May primary, also was de
feated on the November ballot,
when he was the Democratic candi
date for county Judge. He was
placed on the ballot by the county
Democratic executive committee.
Brantley was jailed with bond
set at $2,000, after the grand jury
issued a secret indictment against
him Wednesday.
Brantley's brother Robert also
was an unsuccessful candidate for
county judge this year. He ran for
Republican nomination for the
office in May. Incumbent J. B.
Coleman defeated him.
The penalty for publishing a
forged document is a prison term
that can be as much as 20 years.

Ike May Talk
To MacArthur
In New York
By DON WHITEHEAD
ABOARD CRUISER HELENA
m President-elect Dwight D.
Eisenhower and Gen. Douglas
MacArthur will meet in New York
shortly after Eisenhower's return
to discuss Mac Arthur's plan for
shortening the Korean war, a re
liable source said Wednesday.
The source, who is close to Ei
senhower, said no time or place
had been set for the meeting but
it probably would be at Eisenhow
er's Morningside Heights residence
or his Commodore Hotel headquar
ters. Eisenhower expects to leave Ha
waii by plane Saturday night and
arrive in New York Sunday night.
Indications were that the meet
ing perhaps would be held next
week.
The source also said MacArthur
would be consulted frequently on
Far East affairs although he
would not be asked to take a place
in the new Republican adminis
tration. Flans World Tour
Meanwhile, Secretary of State
designate John Foster Dulles told
friends he hopes after he takes of
fice to make a world tour that
would carry him to Europe, the
Middle East and the Far East.
Dulles said he planned to study
world conditions as they relate to
Eisenhower's program of peace,
informants reported.
Later Dulles told correspondents
that the conferences aboard the
Helena "will pay dividends to the
American people for years to
come."
"There won't be any immediate
grand-scale payoff," he said, "but
it will be a gradual thing, reach
ing into every part of the govern
ment's operations at home and
abroad.
Goals Now Known
"We have been able in this time
to form the framework of the new
administration policy and we all
know the direction we are going
and the goals we are aiming for."
Dulles feels as Eisenhower and
others in the party that the Helena
meeting has proved a stabilizing
factor in the formation of Ameri
can policy. The talks have con
tinued without outside interruption
or pressures.
The Eisenhower party plans to
split up Thursday night, with most
of the men returning to the main
land. McKay to Remain
Staying here probably until
Saturday night will be Eisen
hower, Dulles, Gov. Douglas Mc
Kay of Oregon, Interior secretary
designate; and C. D. Jackson and
Emmet Hughes, who will be on
the White House staff.
Eisenhower's radioed message
to MacArthur Sunday, expressing
interest in the former Far East
commander's views on Korea, was
seen as a diplomatic move to
heal the breach between the two.
MacArthur's quick reply on
.Monday saying "I am grateful for
your interest in my views" re
ferred to Eisenhower by his fa
miliar nickname of "Ike"
(An aide to MacArthur in New
York squelched speculation that
MacArthur would go to the West
Coast to meet Eisenhower.)
On Friday, the day Eisenhower
left Korea, MacArthur said in a
speech before the National Asso
he had a new plan for solving the
Korean puzzle. He added that he
was ready to give it to Eisenhower
if asked for it

General Urged
Not to Wait for
lice Meeting
ABOARD TRUMAN SPECIAL
UP) President Truman called on
Gen. Douglas MacArthur Wednes
day to disclose to him -"at once"
if he has an airtight plan for end
ing the Korean war.
In effect, the President prodded
MacArthur to deal directly with
the White House and now
without waiting to confer with Re
publican President-elect Dwight
D. Eisenhower.
"If we can cut this fighting in
Korea short by one day, we should
do so," Truman said in a terse
written statement.
"I think if anyone has a rea
sonable plan for ending the Kor
rean fighting in an honorable way
that will not lead directly into a
great war, that plan should be pre
sented at once to the President"
Roger Tubby, acting presiden
tial press secretary, said Truman
dictated his two-sentence state
ment after reading newspaper ac
counts of an exchange of cables
between MacArthur in New York
and Gen. Eisenhower aboard the
Helena.
Truman did not mention Mac
Arthur by name in his statement,
but Tubby told newsmen there
was "no question" the President
was referring to MacArthur's state
ment that "there is a clear and
definite solution" to the Korean
conflict.
MacArthur, who was fired from
his Far East command by Pres
cient Truman on April 10, 1951, is
still in the Army and continues to
draw more than $18,000 a year as
a five-star general.
Truman j issued his statement
aboard his I special train en route
to Washington from Independence,
Mo., where he attended the funeral
of his 90-year-old mother-in-law,
Mrs. David W. Wallace.
The Trumans planned to spend
Christmas in Washington." rather
than go home to Independence for
the holidays, as in past years.
Weatherman
Plans to Try
Raihmaking
OLYMPIA CP) The U. S. Weather
Bureau which has often pooh
poohed the claims of rainmakers
plans to conduct some experiments
along that line itself.
Experts from Washington, D, C,
have set up headquarters for an
artificial cloud nucleation project
at Sand Point Naval Air Station
in Seattle.
Ferguson Hall, who heads the
staff, said he was unable to re
lease any information on the proj
ect, pending an official announce
ment in Washington.
The Daily Olympian said it had
learned, however, that the Weather
Bureau will conduct experiments
into the scientific aspects of rain
making. Similar experiments were con
ducted in 1948 and 1949 in Ohio,
California and Alabama.
A dispute over rainmaklng arose
this year between Washington
State's cherry growers and wheat
ranchers. The wheat ranchers.
seeking rain, employed a rain
maker. The cherry group, against
rain at that time because it would
split their cherries, chipped in to
hire a rain-stopper.
The rainmaker and rainstopper
both claimed partial success In
their endeavors.
