Hit by Dulles
WASHINGTON CB ' Secretary
of State Dulles, challenging Rus
sia's good faith, Friday rejected
Moscow's bid for new talks on
atomic weapons, Germany, Korea

Russia will have to change its

ROSEBURG (JP) Donald (Punchy) Bailey, the convict who
Warden Clarence T. Gladden said once bossed the state penitentiary,
has been held secretly in the Douglas County jail t Roseburg, it was
learned Friday. - - t U ' r :
A Eugene attorney, Charles 0. Porter, discovered his where
abouts by filing a writ of habeas
corpus, demanding that the pris
oner be produced in circuit court
here next Tuesday morning.
Bailey, serving a 25 year prison
sentence on a conviction of armed
robbery, was named by Gladden
as one of the ring leaders in -the
destructtive , prison riot . in . July,
1953. , Bailey was chief inmate clerk
in' the control room and exerted a
great deal of influence on other
convicts, Gladden said. .
After the riot, Bailey was trans
ferred to Rocky Butte jail in Port
land for a time. Then in Novem
ber, 1953, he was taken tp Rose
burg where he has been a secret
prisoner since.
Gladden said Bailey had been
moved from the pnson to keep
him from stirring up more trouble.
Porter contended in the writ that
Bailey had been denied his rights
ana- suDjectea to "unnecessary
vigor.. . "
At Salem, Warden Gladden said
he had dispatched guards to Rose
burg to bring Bailey back to the
prison. Bailey is expected in Salem
Saturday afternoon.

Fireman Overcom
Estimated Near
: Northwest Poultry's big, aprawling Salem plant on North Front Street was
swept by fire late Friday night and damages were expected to run close to
8100,000.
. . ; : Fire, apparently starting near" the heart of the frame structure, had made
heavy headway before firemen were called at 11:24 p.m. Heavy smoke was
boiling from the building at that time and it appeared for a few minutes that
the fire fighters would be able to)
bring the blaze tinder, control
About' 11:40 flames ate through
the 'roof ; and spread,' quickly
through - a major ' portion of the
original structure. A second alarm
was sounded at that time.
, All available Salem fire equip
ment was at thetscene and the
Keizer Fire Department sent one
truck to help out.
The fire, was controlled about
12:30 this morning.
A slight breeze fanned the
flames a hundred feet in the air
and sent sparks flying across
Front Street But the wind also
served to carry the fire away
from a recently constructed ad
dition at the rear of the original
plant ' r. . -- . "
-. Loss In the fire was not deter
mined immediately but was re
ported tobe covered by insur
ance. Lost in the blaze was the
company's office, freezer - room
containing frozen birds, egg re
ceiving plant apd many crates and
equipment
Levelled to the ground by the
fire was a large portion of the
front partition of the structure.
; Police warned swarms of spec
tators away from the area when
hot wires leading across Front St,
to the building sagged to t h e
ground.
The dense, choking smoke made
fighting the conflagration extreme
ly difficult in the : early stages.
Overcome by the smoke was fire
man Dick Reese. He was treated
by first aid and quickly recovered.
The-smoke,, which drifted far
over the downtown business dis
trict ' was attributed chiefly to
burning feed and paint stored in
the structure. ; :
Manager of the poultry plant is
