Reds Bring Propaganda
Printing Machines Into
U.S., Investigators Say
By JOHN CHAD WICK
WASHINGTON W Senate in
vestigators charged Sunday that
Communist conspirators are flood
ing this country with propaganda
and have hidden printing equip
ment to carry on their activities
in case of war.
"Many thousands of dollars must
have been spent on equipment for
the secret Communist printing
plants," said Sen. Welker (R-Ida),
who directed the probe.
"There is strong evidence that
the financing was supplied, almost
wholly, from Moscow and through
the diplomatic agencies of the So
viet satellites," Welker added.

Topic at CIO
Convention
KLAMATH FALLS The
Oregon CIO convention went into
its final day here Sunday with the
main stress on development of the
Pacific Northwest and how to ac
complish it.
The main speakers on this topic
were Albert Ullman, Baker, Ore.,
president of the Idaho-Oregon
Hells Canyon Association, Elmer
McClure, Portland, state grange
master, and Richard Mueller, pres
ident of the Oregon Farmers'
Union.
Delegates adopted a resolution
calling for development of the re
gion through low cost hydro-electric
power.
The convention unanimously ap
proved a resolution opposing the
appointment of State Sen. Warren
Gill of Lebanon as U. S. Attorney.
The CIO accused Gill of being op
posed to equal civil rights to mi
nority groups.
Paper Reports
Beria's Plan
For Freedom
(Story also on page one.)
SAN DIEGO. Calif UFi The San
Diego Union said Sunday it has
received a detailed plan under
which a man representing himself
as Lavrenty P. Beria is willing to
place himself in the hands of the
United States government.
In a copyrighted article, the pa
per said the plan was forwarded
to it by an intermediary in personal
contact with the supposed Beria
and three other former top Com
munists fugitives from Russia.
They w ere reported to be in "a
deep southern country."
The Union said it was unable to
determine at this point whether the
information is genuine or a hoax.
The l"nim said the intermediary
from whom it received the plan
was an acjent who acted on behalf
of the United Slates government,
including the Senate investigating
subcommittee headed by Sen. Mc
Carthy R-Yis.
It stated that it was pledged to
secrecy about details of the plan
and the country in which the sup
posed fugitives were contacted.
The man representing himself as
Beria was described as ready to
exchange information about the in
ner workings of the Soviet govern
ment for asylum for himself and
three companions in the United
States.
Dike Bursts, Damaging Huge
Howard Hughes Flying Boat
SAN PEDRO. Calif. I An
accident to Howard Hughes giant
flying boat, disclosed Sunday,
caused damage which Hughes and
his engineers estimated at more
than 5 million dollars.
A Hughes spokesman said the
mishap occurred early Friday at
the Hughes hangar and drydock
on nearby Terminal Island but
Hughes would not permit disclosure
of it until he had made a personal
inspection with engineers.
An earthen dike on nearby prop
erty burst, the spokesman said,
spilling tons of mud, silt and water
into the hangar and drydock. The
huge aircraft was lifted out of its
dock and crushed against adjacent
structures.
The dike bad been built by a
dredging company to retain mate
rial pumped from the harbor bot
tom to an artificial lake filled to
a height greater than the surround
ing area.
The drydock was filled to a
depth of 30 feet Hughes' shops,
offices and hangar were flooded.
Hughes and his engineers said the
flying boat's wings, hull, eight en

stabilizer, rudder, and hydraulic
sions used by his friend and col
league. Dr. Albert Einstein, at the
Institute for Advanced Study at
Princeton, N. J.
Other scientists here cautiously
praised the theory after first hear
ing it explained Saturday.
"It is very promising," said Dr.
Hideki Yukawa, Japan's famed
Nobel Prize winner. His discovery
of the unsuspected meson in the
derground printing facilities and
illegal propaganda, the Senate in
ternal security subcommittee rec
ommended: 1. That Communist and Communist-front
organizations required
by the Internal Security Act to
register with the attorney general
be required also to list all their
printing equipment.
So far no organizations have reg
istered under the act, passed in
1930, although the Communist
Party has been ordered to do so
after a protracted hearing before
the Subversive Activities Control
Board. The party has appealed the
order to the courts.
2. That all diplomatic and con
sular officers in this country who
prepare or disseminate political
propaganda be required to register
under the Foreign Agents Regis
tration Act
Requires Filing
The act not only is designed to
disclose such agents but it also re
quires them to file and correctly
label political propaganda which
they send out in this country.
Diplomatic and consular officers
are exempt under present law so
long as they engage only in activi
ties recognized by the State De
partment as within the scope of
their duties.
The subcommittee said that un
der a March, 1947, ruling of the
State Department, issued by the
then acting Secretary of State
Dean Acheson. informational activ
ities were held to be within the
proper functions of diplomatic and
consular officers.
As a result, the subcommittee
added, "much of the Communist
propaganda activities in this coun
try have been operated increasing
ly by diplomatic and consular of
ficers in order to avoid the regis
tration and labeling requirements
of the Foreign Agents Registration
Act."
Chairman Jenner (R-Ind) said
testimony taken by the subcom
mittee clearly showed "that loop
holes in our security laws allow
the Communist conspirators to
flood the United States in peace
time with tons of propaganda and
to prepare secret printing plants
for continuing their propaganda
activities in case of war."
3 Injured in

At Deweyville
Statesman Newt Scrrlc
BROOKS A three-car crash
Sunday night at Deweyville, about
three miles north of here on
Highway 99-E, resulted in injur
ies to three people and consider
able damage to all vehicles.
Taken to Salem Memorial Hos
pital by Willamette Ambulance
j Service were Mrs. Jean K. Taylor,
47, oi westport, ure.; Mrs. Bon
nie Ornby and her husband,
George, both of Portland. Mrs.
Taylor sustained a fractured leg
and lacerations; Mrs. Ornby lacer
ations and shock, and Mr. Ornby
several deep lacerations of the
scalp. All were considered "fair"
at the hospital at midnight.
State police records indicate
the accident occurred when a
northbound pickup truck driven
by Donald P. Dunn, . Silverton,
turned off the highway at Dewey
ville. The truck was hit from be
hind by a car driven by Dwight
Wadsworth, Portland. The Wads
worth auto was in turn struck by
the car driven by Taylor.
Police arrested Wadsworth and
a passenger, Leroy McDoolin,
Portland, on charges of drunk on

and mechanical, control systems
were damaged.
They estimated that it will re
quire weeks to remove the residue
and more than a year to repair
damage to the flying boat.
The flying boat, originally an 18
million dollar government project,
was flown once, by Hughes on Nov.
2, 1947. for about a mile at 70
feet altitude over the water.
Ever since Hughes has made
changes and improvements on the
control system, engines and other
vital parts. In recent months eight
new engines have been installed.
Hughes has indicated that, after
final inspections, there would be a
new launching and taxi and flight
tests next month. Hughes says he
has put 23 millions of his own mon
ey into t flying boat, ownership
of which still rests with the Re

rwm Kinds of Mesons
Prof. Robert E. Marshak. of the
Tjniversity of Rochester, N. Y
who broadened Yukawa's theory
by finding there were at least two
kinds of mesons also was interest
ed. -
I "This seems to me the most
striking development in the con
ference so far," he said.
I Dr. R. P. Ferynman, physics
professor at the California Insti
tute of Technology, said simply,
"I think Pais has got something
there."
Different States.
I "The shortest possible descrip
tion of the theory is to call it an
attempt to explain the large num
ber of particles in the nucleus not
as different forms in themselves
but as different states of one form.
"If it is correct it would bring
a great simplicity to our theories
of the nucleus and this is one rea
son it has appeal to many of the
physicists. For hundreds of years,
we have learned that the great
truths of nature are usually ex
plained in classically simple ways."
. As for the framework of the
theory. Prof. Pais said:
; "It seems necessary in my theory
to extend the usual space-time de
scription and, in a very -abstract
sense, one may say that a higher
dimensional frame of description
is necessary.
i "In my theory, this means six
dimensions."
Four Dimensions
Einstein's theory employed four
dimensions, usually thought of as
the three common ones of length,
breadth and thickness plus .time
as the fourth dimension."
"The type of mathematics called
for here," Prof. Pais said, "seems
to be a six dimensional manifold
with geometrical properties of the
Riemannian type."
i Georg F. B. Riemann, a German
mathematician of the last century,
originated a non-Euclidean system
of geometry used to explain many
abstract physical theories.

Atom
Physicist
Prof. Pals, tracing the recent his
tory of nuclear physics down to
his theory, said that as late as
World War II:
"We had a small number of
particles and there was hope that
at ' last we had found the funda
mental building stones of matter
that all properties of matter and
the earth and in the stars and in
cosmic rays could be'undersood
by a study of these particles.
New P.Tt?Is Found
"But in 1947, there came a radi
cal change. A great number of
new particles bean to be discov
ered. This continued until they now
amount to a couple of dozens
and we suspect there may be even
more than we have found.
"One of the greatest problems
in physics, perhaps the greatest,
is to understand this great variety
and to find some regularities in
a sort of "periodic system."
"Without some such system, we
are almost as helpless in explain
ing the nuclear reactions as chem
ists were heirless in their o-ti field
before the chemical periodic table
was found.
Fonda men t-1 System
"The work we are doing is to
attempt the beginning of under
standing for the existence of a
great variety of these particles and
to reduce them to a more funda
mental object or system, that can.
make them appear as many dif
ferent forms of a similar thing.
"In an abstract sense. I would
suppose that certain groups of
particles can actually be consid
ered as different states of a more
fundamental thing."
That, he said, calls for "a higher
dimensional frame of description."
Despite the interest in his theory.
Prof. Pais said he did not regard
it yet as "in the best possible
form" but only as "the first mod
est step toward something prom
ising." He said one of the main reasons
for revealing it now was to throw
it into the main stream of scien
tific thought to see what other phy
sicists may do to extend or de
velop it.

on

Beria Trial
(Story also on page one) '
WASHINGTON (JP) i A high
Senate source supported and
another unnamed ; government
official cast doubt on the sup
posed escape of Lavrenty Beria
from Russia.--,
The Senate source predicted the
State Department would issue a
statement3 on the matter "in the
very near future," A State Depart
ment spokesman said he did not
know anything about the Beria
case. '
There has been no announcement
of Beria's trial or execution, and
in recent weeks bis name has not
been mentioned by the Soviet press
or radio. This has led to a belief
in some quarters here that he may
already have been executed. .
The Senate source said a trusted
agent of the investigations subcom
mittee, which is headed by Sen.
McCarthy (R-Wis), has flown to a
"neutral, non-Communist country
in Europe, talked with the fugitive
and reported that he is convinced
the man is Beria.
McCarthy Silent
"I would be the most surprised
man in, the world if it is true,"
commented the other high source.
McCarthy refused to be quoted on
the matter at all.
Unfolding the fantastic tale, the
Senate source said McCarthy's
agents have been in contact with
the fugitive for about a month. He
also provided these details, which
have not been confirmed, either of
ficially or unofficially, in any other
branch of the governmsnt:
The man representing himself as
Beria escaped with three aides in
an airplane.
Lots of Protection
The man has "plenty of protec
tion so far" in his hideaway.
If he is given refuge in the Unit
ed States he will talk only with
McCarthy or Vice President Nixon.
He has not broken with Commun
ism, but is willing to -talk to re
venge himself against his political
enemies in Russia.
It is reported that Communist
agents iff Mexico City, still loyal
to Beria, have been helpful in pro
moting the idea of an American
asylum for him.
Aim at. South America
If the man can't get into the
United States he will try to reach
some South American country.
The Senate source said it Is also
reported that McCarthy, through
an intermediary, has had not less
than four exchanges of messages
on the matter with Earl Browder,
former leader of the American
Communist Party.
In New York, however, Browder
told a reporter he didn't know any
thing about the case.
If McCarthy's agents have ac
tually found Beria, it will be the
start of a story as strange as the
wartime flight of Rudolph Hess,
deputy leader of the German Nazi
Party, to Scotland in 194L .

agreed Sunday on a new one-year
contract.
The' union and the company have
been negotiating since July 23 on
a new contract to replace one
which expired Aug. 17.
Recently there have been sev
eral work stoppages by union
members at various points
throughout the state to back up
the . union's demands.
The new contract, which went
into effect Sunday, provides for
weekly wage increases of from $1
to 13, depending on job classifica
tion and other factors.
The wage agreement was reach
ed seme time ago. After that the
company and the union were un
able to agree on .contract provi
sions covering such matters as
seniority and paid time off.
It was on these matters that
agreement was reached Sunday.
A spokesman for the union said
terms of the settlement on these
issues would be announced later.
