Helen Traubel Quits
Met for
NEW YORK VP) The Metropolitan Opera and foremost Wag
nerian soprano Helen Traubel came to a parting, of the ways Sunday
in a dispute over her budding
The breach was disclosed
by a spokesman for Miss Traubel, who recently made her night
club debut at the Cher Faree, Chicago.
The exchange was climaxed by i
Miss Traubel's refusal to sign a ! I..L.L.I
new contract to appear in the op- V706S VIUDDInC
The first letter, dated Sept 25th,
was written by Rudolf Bing, gen
eral manager of the Met.
Bing, taking note of Miss Trau
bel's night club activities, called
attention to the fact that she had.
not returned a contract, offered'
some time ago. to participate in
the opera season starting next,
month.
' He asked assurances that Miss
Traubel would not sing in New
York night clubs before the season
starts nor for one month afterward.
"More Serious Art"
"I could so well understand a
feeling that these two activities do
not really seem to mix very well.
Bing wrote. "Perhaps you would
prefer to give the Metropolitan a
miss for a year or so until you
may possibly feel that you want
again to change back to the more
serious aspects of your art."
In a letter dated Sunday, Miss
Traubel replied:
'To assert that art can be found
in the Metropolitan Opera House
but not in a night club is a rank
snobbery that underrates both the
taste of the American public and
the talents of its composers.
U. S. 'Comoosers . 1
'I love the songs of Gershwin,
Handy,- Kern, Rodgers. Berlin and
other great American composers.
I am glad to be able , to sing them
and to bring" to them my training
and equipment as a singer.
"Since I cannot sing them at the
Metropolitan Opera House, I am
singing them at night clubs, and
I am happy to have found that
night club audiences are enthusi
astically accepting me on my own
terms."
Miss Traubel, who was born in
St Louis, succeeded Kirsten Flag-
stad in 1939-40 as the Met's femi
nine star in roles created by Rich
ard Wagner. She has also made
numerous concert appearances in
this country and abroad.
Community Chest
Support Sought
By Eisenhower
WASHINGTON m President
Eisenhower appealed to Americans
Sunday to show their true volun
teer spirit by donating generously
to the 280 million dollar "touted
community campaigns" for ' help
ing the needy in the United States
and Canada.
In a message televised and
broadcast from recordings over all
major networks, the President
touched off the drive for funds
starting next week in some 1,700
cities and towns in the two coun
tries. The United States and Cana
da are uniting their campaigns this
year.

Brownell left three hours later.
informed sources said. Calls to the
executive mansion brought word
that the governor was out and could
not be reached. His own press sec
retary professed surprise when in
formed of the Brownell-Warren
meeting.
Talk With Warren
Officially, McClellan's public in
formation office would only say that
a "Class Al VIP (very important
person) arrived at 8 a.m. this morn
ing and left at 11 a.m.." and that
the sole purpose of his mission was
to confer with Warren.
Another source said, however, the
visitor was BrowneU, adding
"There is no doubt about it"
Warren already has said he will
not be a candidate for a fourth
term next year. In his recent ac
tions he has acted like a man clear
ing his desk for a new assignment
Court Vacancy
There has been strong belief here,
and some in Washington, that War
ren a district attorney and state
attorney general before becoming
governor in 1943 would land on
the Supreme Court
The speculation began before the
unexpected death of Chief .Justice
Fred Vinson, and some quarters
later even predicted the Californian
would be named to replace Vinson.
However, there was no way of
telling what Brownell and Warren
talked about in their long confer
ence in an office in the McClellan
headquarters. Warren met the vis
itor when he landed at the big Air
Force base and the two left Im
mediately for their secret meeting.
Specific instructions were given
out not to identify the VIP.
Hitler Aides
Said Kept in
Soviet Camp
CAMP FRIEDLAND, Germany
(A Repatriated German prison
ers of war reported Sunday three
former servants of Adolf Hitler and
14 former German army generals
are still in a Soviet camp in the
Ural Mountains.
The three Hitler aides, long be
lieved in the West to be dead, in
clude Hitler's valet H. Linge who,
the freed prisoners said, helped
burn the Fuehrer's body after his
suicide in the air raid bunker of
Berlin's Reich Chancellory.
The others were described as
Ciht Capt. Hansl Baur. Hitler's
personal pilot and a personal ad
jutant. Guentsche.
The prisoners said that the Hitler
aides and German generals were
being held in Camp Pevo-Uralsk in
the Ural Mountains.
Among other prominent prisoners
reportedly held there was the son
of Arthur Seyss-In quart, the Nazi
leader and former Austrian Chan
cellor who was hanged for war
crimes in Nuernberg in 1946.
Another was a member of the
family of the former German ar
mament king, Alfried Krupp, the
freed POWs said.
The generals included several in
fantry division commanders and
tank experts.
One of them, Lt Gen. Bodo von
Huelsen, once was adjutant of the
late German President Paul von
Hindenburg.
The prisoners said conditions in
the Soviet prison camps improved
considerably after the death of Stal
in last March but worsened again
after the June 17 anti-Communist
rebellion in East Germany.

Mothers Seek
To Plead With
Pro-Reel Sons
DALLAS, Tex. (A Three Texas
mothers are prayerfully ready to
match a mother's love against the
Communistic beliefs reportedly
adopted by their sons.
Each said she was ready to fly
to the neutral zone in Korea and
talk, as only a mother can, to her
son.
Four Texans are among the 23
Americans listed as turning down
a chance to gain freedom from
their Communist captors. They are
represented as having been con
verted to Communism.
Mothers of three of- the Texans
were asked Sunday by the Asso
ciated Press if they would go to
their sons' sides if they could, and
if they thought such mother-to-son
talks would be effective.'
Not Contacted ,
The mother of the fourth Texan
could not be contacted.

"I would be perfectly willing to

Valley residents may wake up

coat of frost on the ground, but
despite a short, cool summer it
will be a far cry from a record.
Though the valley, Salem in

pretty drastic exceptions includ

five inches of snow in October.
As a matter of fact the month

nippy 35-degree reading back
just before the. turn of the century."-
