Cogens Retbter-Gnard Tale of Two Leaders Told By Elliott Elliott Roosevelt Reports FDR -Winnie Tiffs in Book NEW YORK (U.R) Winston Churchill waved a finger under Franklin D. Roosevelt's nose and told him that he believed the President was "trying to do away;' with the British empire. This dramatic scene and other incidents purporting to show that the feeling between the two war time leaders was not always too friendly are reported in a forth coming book, "As I Saw It," by Elliott Roosevelt, son of the late President. The first installment of a con troversy over Mr. Roosevelt's se cret agreement, was published Monday in Look Magazine. The magazine, it was reliably reported, paid $30,000 for the advance pub lication rights. Churchill's finger-waving inci dent quotes son Elliott as saying, occurred during one of the At lantic Charter sessions between the prime minister and the President aboard the U. S. Cruissr Augusta before the United States entered the war. Author Roose velt was with his father at that densation of the book, which ! meeting and numerous others dur- seems likely to stir up a new con- Separate School District Upheld The county school boundary board on a three-to-one vote Wednesday reestablished the old Meadowview school district as a separate school unit. The action came as a result of a petition from residents of that area asking withdrawal from the Junction City district. The board's decision, according to County Judge Clinton Hurd, cli maxed a series of actions over the separationist-consolidationist con troversy. The district, originally independent (District 21), voted 21-19 at a general consolidation election to come in with Junction City. A reelection subsequently was held to reverse this action, but a tie vote, 19 to 19, upheld the earlier election. Mondav the board met to con sider a petition from the element favoring separation wnicn staiea that four persons who had voted in both elections had not been le gal voters at the time the election was held. They presented signed affidavits to the board supporting this contention. The board heard the arguments at the Monday meeting and at that time voted to make a decision on the matter Wednesday. Nelson Creek Fire Battled Western Lane Fire Patrol crews Wednesday were battling a blaze at Nelson Creek near Swisshome while .Willamette National Forest and Eastern Lane Fire Patrol of ficials reported fires in their dis tricts mostly were under control. Clyde Quam, of the national forest, reported nearly 40 fires were started in Willamette forests by Mon. night's lightning storms but all had been checked with little damage. Eastern Lane escaped from the lightning storm although Wednes day morning two small fires were extinguished. No reports on extent of the Nel son Creek fire had been received by noon Wednesday, R. C. Howel, Western Lane Inspector, reported, A 25 man crew was at Nelson Creek Wednesday, Howel said, and reinforcements were being sent in. It was expected the blaze could be brought under control soon. The U. S. Weather Bureau in Eugene reported humidity at 1!):30 a. m. Wednesday was 46 per cert and was expected to drop into the 30's. Tuesday's humidity fluctu ated from 61 per cent at 10:30 a. CIO Favorites Get Trouncing NEW YORK U.B Favored sons of the CIO Political Action Committee were soundly trounced In an attempt to "invade" the Re- Dublican Party ticket, returns from Tuesday's New York State primary showed Wednesday. They scored victories in Amer ican Labor Party primaries and lome in the Democratic voting, but had a zero in an ambitious liy to garner a Republican nomina tion. High-lighting the voting was the defeat of ALP Congressman Vito Marcantonio in the 18th dis trict in his bid for the Republican nomination. Marcantonio, gener ally regarded as one of the most left winged legislators in Wash ington, won the Democratic and the ALP nominations, but was whipped by Frederic V. P. Bryan, backed by the regular Republican organization. Two years ago, Mar cantonio won all three nomina tions. Marcantonlo's vote over the Democratic aspirant, Patrick J. Hannigan, was unexpectedly close, and a knockdown fight between Marcantonio and Bryan in the No vember election was in prospect. Second in interest was the de feat of Rep. Joseph C. Baldwin, New Deal-voting Republican who was backed by the PAC in the Republican primary for nom ination. He was overwhelmed by Frederic R. Coudert, Jr., in the so-called "silk stocking" or 17th district of New York City. Baldwin won the American Labor Party nomination unoppos ed with Myron Sulzberger, Jr., winning the Democratic nomina tion, thus setting up a three-way contest in November. ing the war, Author Roosevelt (aid that during one informal meeting, Churchill walked about the room and finally stopped in front of the President. He then "brandished a stubby forefinger under father's nose," Roosevelt reports. He quotes Churchill directly as saying: "Mr. President! I believe you are trying to do away with the British empire. Every idea you entertain about the structure of m, to a low of 21 per cent. the postwar world demonstrates it. But in spite of that in spite of that, we know that you con stitute our only hope. And you know that we know it. You know that we know that without Amer ica, the empire won't stand, Author Roosevelt contends thnt Churchill's statement was an ad mission that "he knew peace could only be won according to the precepts which the United States would lay down." He quoted Churchill as telling the President: "The Americans must come in at our side! You must come in, if you are to survive." Author Roosevelt makes num erous conclusions, contending that the peace structure as laid down by Mr. Roosevelt to Churchill has been disavowed. He writes: "I know what conditions Franklin Roosevelt predicted for the structure of peace. I know what conversations led to them, of the bargains and promises. And I have seen the promises (ASSOCIATED PRESS) Fire crews and forest parachute jumpers working on scattered fires along the Cascade Range from Roseburg, Ore., to the Can adian border Wednesday were re ported having little trouble. Most of the lightning fires start ed during Monday night's thund erstorms were snuffed out by prompt arrival of fmoke jumpers in the isolated regions while others were being reached Wed nesday. Forest Service headquarters at Portland reported blazes in Wash ington and Oregon were minor on federal lands and no important fires were reported on private or state timbered tracts.

McCormick of Houston called for "a unified1 po litical action and mutual welfare on the part of the AFL, the CIO, railroad brotherhood and all le gmmate independent labor or ganizations" and was given an unfavorable report by the com mittee. Delegates also upheld the report. sharp debate featured a pro posal that the United Nations charter be amended to provide that as a condition of membership "an unhampered and unrestricted free press be permited within the boundaries of member nations Carl E. Linder of Des Moines. chairman of the resolutions com mittee, took the floor to defend the committees unfavorable re port and asserted: "We have no right to go out side when we don't have a free press in our own country." As debate on the question de veloped, a roll call vote was asked for and the unfavorable commit tee report was upheld 143 to 90.
