ACORNS FROM THE WITH DEL MILNE "Salem people do not realize what Ihey have here in Salem because if everyone knew what a wonderful dinner you people put. on for $1.25 this place would be full to overflowing, wish we had this down in L A." well I think the lady is right, we actually figured it out and it is cheaper to ear dinner at the Marion than it is to eat at home. Besides that, fellows, you get hot dinner rolls every night, (home Vnade). Yes, we make all our own pies, cakes, breads etc. Very popular are our individual berry pies, just like mother used to try to make. I hope you will not think I'm going nuts over this $1.25 dinner but I am so enthused about it I just bubble over, es pecially when anyone mentions it; like this lady from L. A.

TUCKMAN I PANMUNJOM m Seventy-five Americans returned to freedom in Tuesday's 14th exchange of war prisoners. They were among 450 Allied POWs liberated, the largest number thus far returned. The Communists said they would free a even larger number Wed nesday 458 and again including 75 Americans and 75 British. Americans and ' British return ing Tuesday from' long imprison ment in North Korea's bleak stock ades were smiling and in apparent good health, although somewhat thin. There were 25 of each na tionality in the 125 making op the first contingent freed at f a.m. It was the largest single group of prisoners thus far liberated by the Communists in two weeks of exchanging prisoners under terms of the Korean armistice. Shooting ROKs The Americans and 25 British prisoners in the first contingent were accompanied by truck loads of shouting South Koreans who had stripped away despised Commun ist prison garb. Some of the South Koreans wore white headbands scrawled in blood with the Korean characters: "Destroy Communism." Although Tuesday's quota of 450 was the largest since the exchange fbegan, the percentage of Ameri cans returned still was far behind other major Allied nationals. There were 75 Americans and 75 British in the day's deliveries. 200 Not Held Back Many of the 73 Americans who returned in Monday's exchange said the Chinese at Camp 1 in North Korea had planned to hold back 200 men, but the Red Cross inter' ceded at the last , minute and (the zw were snipped to tne ranmun jam exchange point. A high official of the American Reu Cross said Monday no word has come from United Nations Red Cross workers now in North Korea on what success they are having in their work, permitted by the ar mistice agreement, of comforting Allied captives. Getting Mail James W. Nicholson, general manager of the ARC, said the Red Cross teams have reported only that they arrived in North Korea, are getting their mail and are re ceiving, good supply and transpor tation support from the Reds. American and other U.N. repa triates have complained they were not allowed to talk to U.N. Red Cross teams in North Korea, or were threatened by the Chinese with a delay in repatriation if they did not give the Red Cross workers glowing descriptions of prison camp life Nicholson said he had made no complaint to the Communists based on the repatriates' stories because he had not received any official report from the Red Cross teams behind the Bamboo Curtain. Short Circuit Snarls Muncie MUNCIE. Ind. W ' Muncie was snarled in confusion Monday night when a short circuit knocked out all electrical power lor three fourth of the city, then was cut off from outside communication to the west by a telephone cable cutting. It was the second time cables to Muncie have been cut during the statewide strike against Indiana Bell Telephone Co. A rash of minor accidents oc curred as confused motorists were without traffic signals and street lights. The power failure hit Ball Mem orial Hospital just as a patient was being anesthetized for surgery. No harm was done to the unidentified patient, doctors reported, by the j power failure. Current was re stored in 10 minutes at the hospital. Judge Denies Request by Macomber PORTLAND Federal Judge Gus Solomon Monday, denied a request by the state to transfer a case from the Marion County circuit court to a federal - court. Solomon criticized the attorney general's office for the attempt. He said state courts were able to handle it. The ' case involves Gerald " T. Macomber, sentenced to life im prisonment from Jackson County in 1930 for assault with intent to kill. He is seeking release on grounds that he was forced to plead guilty and that he had been denied his civil rights. Skid Substitutes For Alarm Clock DETROIT m Roger F.

The Soviet bloc favors a Korean peace conference which would in clude some countries that did not take part in the Korean conflict, a Red bloc diplomat said Monday. This would include India and the Soviet Union. This also could include some Moscow j, satellites. It would broad en the scope of the conference far wider than the United States has envisioned it. The United States feels Russians may sit, in the conference if Red China and North Korea want them, bu it is opposed to giving a seat to India; or any other "country which did siot1' take part in the war. ' President Syngman Rhee, mean while, was reported to have made it known that his South Korean government would not attend a con ference j in which India is includ ed, j Doesn't Want India There was no confirmation, but Rhee's foreign minister, Y. T. Py un, -said it is no secret that bis government does not want India to take part in the conference. He declined to answer when asked if Rhee had issued such a condition. The seventh General Assembly reconvened for a seven-minute ses sion at which its president, Lester B. Pearson, Canadian foreign sec retary, called for a maximum of harmony and good will in working on arrangements for the Korean political conference provided in the armistice. "RouadUble Type" The Iron Curtain diplomat, who would not be identified, said Mos cow feels the conference should be "roundtable rather than another Panmunjom." He was referring to the system at Panmunjom in which U.N. Command representatives sat across the table from Communist representatives. Soviet Delegate Andrei Y. Vish- Indiana State Troopers Calm Strike Violence INDIANAPOLIS CP Gov. George N. Craig acted Monday to halt out breaks of violence in the ClO-Com-munication workers statewide strike against the Indiana Bell Telephone Co. ' He ordered State Police Supt, Prank A. Jessup to send State Po lice troopers to Clinton to reopen the exchange in that city, which was closed for a second time Sun da) after a mob besieged it for more than five hours. Within less than three hours after Gov. Craig's action Indiana Bell officials reported that both local and long distance service had been resumed at Clinton. The governor also told newsmen he had alerted the Indiana National Guard and all other law enforce ment agencies to prepare for im mediate action if there is "any further discontinuance of service or violence" in the strike that has been in progress since July 22. Shortly before the governor took action pickets laid siege to the Ko komo exchange. They attached chains that would prevent the open ing of the front door and barricaded a rear entrance with planks. After chaining the front door pickets set up a sign in front of it reading: "Closed by strike." Harold Swope. a Kokomo photog rapher, reported picket s pelted him with tomatoes when he attempted to take a picture. Indiana Bell officials said the chains and the barricades were removed from the Kokomo ex change about the time service was restored at Clinton. Seventeen non striking employes had continued working in the barricaded building. 27 DIE IN BUS WRECK LIMA, Peru on Twenty-seven persons were killed and 11 critical ly injured Sunday when a bus en route from Arequipa to Lima plunged off a mountain curve and dropped into a 300-foot gorge. fraaaHEEEZH 1 Rite Hayworth jit I and J . 4r Stewart Granger fx - w m r a i ecoiucoioF "SALOME 'COW COUNTRY" Now Showing at Regular Prices PI as 15c for Viewers.
