Alexandrov, professor of the Moscow Institute of non-Ferrous Metals and Gold, is a specialist in the fields of metals that includes thorium and uranium, bases of the atom bomb. He said he went to the Bikini tests because his government wished to know how it was organ ized and conducted "so that In the event Russia prepared a bomb, she would know how it should be demonstrated." "If" and he emphasized the word "if" "the Soviet Union orenares this bomb, it would hold a test somewhere in Russia where it would not endanger the popula tion," Alexandrov said. "Such a test might be held in Siberia, in the mountainous area of Russia, in the Arctic or in the islands north of Canada."

Assistant Attorney General Dan iel Duke of Georgia has charged. Duke told a press conference he had documentary evidence of the pre-war plan. He charged that further evi dence showed the Klan is now in the process of setting up front organizations to attract veterans, women and other groups. Duke said in his opinion the Klan was not dangerous to the na tion at the present time, but it would present a danger In time of national economic upheaval by ap pealing to "thousands and thous ands of poor, unfortunate people. He made the statements as he prepared to return to Atlanta after conferring with attorney generals of New York and New Jersey con cerning Klan activities. New York Attorney General Nathaniel Goldstein told Duke in a conference that one of the three major candidates for governor in ; the recent Georgia primary per sonally asked last May for finan cial help from the Ku Klux Klan of New York. Duke said Goldstein gave him evidence "very Important and startling" in Georgia's effort to obtain revocation of the national Klan charter. He based the charge of a Klan-Bund conspiracy, made at an earlier press conference, on his investigation in New Jersey. He asserted that leaders of the Klan and German Bund groups spoke at joint meetings of the two organizations in New Jersey. He named these speakers as Edward James Smythe, now under federal indictment on charges of sedition, August Klapprott, deputy national fuehrer of the bund now serving a federal sentence, and A. M. Young and Arthur H. Bells, both New Jersey Klan leaders. Duke said the Protestant war veterans in Washington headed by Smythe is one of the front organ izations being set up by the Klan. Swedes Still See Rockets STOCKHOLM CUB Another "mystery rocket" reportedly zoomed over southern Sweden Monday night and anxious citi zens urged the government to de termine immediately what coun try is responsible for filling Swed ish skies with the man-made meteors. A spokesman for the Swedish defense staff said people through out the nation apparently had been "seized by a real ghost-bomb psychosis" and that preliminary investigations had proved useless. The newspaper Dagens Nyheter said the latest missile was ob- served moving across southern Sweden from the northwest. "Shaped like a giant torpedo and emitting a blinding light from its foremost part, it moved soundlessly with great speed at a high altitude," the newspaper said. Similar missiles were sighted Sunday over central Sweden. Still another rocket was reported at two different points along the east coast of southern Norrland Sunday night. Informed sources said govern ment officials were watching all developments closely and were waiting for "supplementary" evi dence upon which to base possible diplomatic protests. Press com ment indicated the government might be forced to take "resolute steps" to clear up the situation. Rumors circulated that the Rus sians were experimenting with rockets and flying bombs, possibly in Estonia on the Baltic, but there was no confirmation from Swedish army officials who have been con ducting secret investigations. Pepper Predicts Third War Unless Policies 'About Face' Latitat VhatUyamean,p ? Juet MTinf thing Is bo doesn't make H so; We know that Occasionally somebody will question our right to call ourselves the friendly Southern Pacific "How can you aay that," he'll ask, "when one of your ticket agents practically barked at me once?" Well, one wallow doesn't make aununer, and when yon have 60,000 people running a railroad, you're bound to have some quick temper and casef of stomach ulcers among them. We wouldn't be human if we didn't slip up once in a while, even though we try very hard to prevent slips. We caul ourselves a friendly railroad because you seldom see a Southern Pacific engineer who doesn't wave at folks, or a conductor who doesn't like to pat children on the head and give them a fist-full of discarded seat checks to play with. Or a Southern Pacific man or woman who won't go out of his or her way to perform an act of human kindness above and beyond the coll of duty. Incidentally, If you're planning a trip anywhere, our service is much fester and better, even, than it was before the war.

Pacific Boy Hunts Hit-Run Driver SEATTLE m His tear stained face firm and his small fists clenched, 10-year-old Larry i Bye. sat in his grandparents' home at Burlington Monday and told interviewers, "If they don't find the guy who killed my daddy, then I'll find him. If I have to look for him 'till I grow up, I'll find him." Larry was speaking of the hit runner who fatally injured 35-year-old Damon Chester Bye, laborer, as Bye walked along the Chuckanut Highway Sunday night. State patrolman said Mon day Bye might have lived had the driver stopped and rendered aid. The injured man had crawled back on the road and attempted to attract aid but died before an early morning milk truck driver discovered him. Elevator Operators Must Be Over 18 WASHINGTON (U.R) The bor Department has ruled operating an elevator is too dan gerous for boys and girls under 18 years of age.

WASHINGTON 0J.R Sen. Claude Pepper (D-Fla) said here that relations between the United Sta.et and Soviet Russia have "toppled like a house of cards" and that a third world war may come w'thin a few years. Pepper, who recently returned from a visit to Russia, where he conferred with Soviet Generalis simo Ji ief Stalin, said in an inter view that only a complete "about face" in Soviet-American relations I could avert another world conflict. I He also bitterly denounced what I he said- was a lack of progress at ! the Paris Peac Conference. Pepper said the America's world ! relations have gone steadily down hill since the death of President Row evelr, adding that the "chasm between nations" grows wider dally. The Tloridlan, whose pre-war foreign policy stand often pre ceded those of the administration, made ro effort to conceal his con cern at what he termed a drift to ward war. The Paris Peace Conference, he declared, is bogged down In "debris and underbrush," with consideration to major peace treaties still far In the future. Pepper urged that President Truman, Prime Minister Clement Attlee and Stalin meet immed iately in "face to face discussions" as a step in patching up what he termed already strained relations. And be called on nations to "back up." and start over in what he termed "the Roosevelt tradition ot bigness and courage." J ha present road of world rela tions, he said, is leading inevitably to an atomic weapons armament race. The whole picture looks dls couragingly dark," he said, "noth iug but a forthright about face can Bend Man Files As Only Independent SALEM (U.R) Former Des chutes County Commissioner Bill Baer of Bend Tuesday was the only independent candidate en tered in the state general election, Nov. 5.

He will oppose William Niskanen, Bend Republican, who received both the Democrat and Republican nominations in the pri mary election. State Fair Gate Price Held at 50c SALEM (U.R) About the only thing not magnified at the Ore gon State Fair this year will be the admission price. Manager Leo Spitzbart has reported. A four-bit piece will see pa trons through the main gate and children under 14 still will be admitted tree ot charge. The state will assume the 20 per cent increase in federal ad mission tax. The fair opens Sept. 2, Labor Day, and lasts through Sept. 8.

He decried the recent bitter exchanges between Secretary of Slate James F. Byrnes and Soviet Foreign Commissar V. M. Molotov St Paris, and urged that the top leaders of the Big Three gather at once to ease tensions of rajer! months and re-utablish rauujsl conscience. One of the most constructive rteps that could be taken, said Pepper, is to begin removing "the crushing expens-j'- of maintaining huge military establishments in all nations of tho world. i .
