a salvo right back.

YOUTH WELFARE FUNDS
- PORTLAND W Two 10-year-old
boys, missing sines Monday
from a Catholic boys' home at
Vancouver, Wash., were found by
Portland police early Friday,
asleep under a pile of newspapers
on the banks of the Willamette
River.
Discovery of their abandoned
red and white bicycles led to the
finding of Bobby Culbertson and
Michael O'Brien. They told fellow
students at the Providence Acad'
emy they were going on a camp
ing trip when they left on their
bikes Monday.
When found the boys were hun
gry, having eaten only apples and
berries, their clothes were torn
and they were grimy from head to
toe. They told police they rode
into Portland Monday night and
then "went out to the country."
That was all the description they
could offer of their travels.
Bobby and Michael were clean
ed up at the police station, given
hamburgers and then put to bed.

son and demanding his ouster
forthwith.
Truman said Acheson is the
best man for the job in the
entire United States.
The Legion's resolution, he
went on to say, was gotten up by
some young boys and they got it
passed by a silent vote. What he
meant by the latter, he didn't say.
CHILDREN OF GOD'
The outgoing commander, Don
ald R. Wilson, declared in his re
tiring address:
"I am aefvised that there are
persons who say this convention
was conducted by a group of chil
dren. I would remind any such
person who ma'kes such a state
ment that, if we are children, we
are children of God, and children
who fought for this country, and
we don't need instruction from
anybody else."
At a news conference following
his election as the new national
Legion commander, Lewis K.
Gough of Pasadena, Calif., assert
ed leadership in the State Depart
ment "has been inept."
Informed of the President's
statement Acheson was best qual
ified for the State Department
post, Gough said:
'LEADERSHIP INEPT'
"I say leadership in the State
Department has been inept and
has lacked courage. The results
are indicative of this.
"In addition, it is extremely
important to note the people of
this country have lost confidence
in our state Department leaders,
which is indeed a serious situation
in such critical times."
In his retirement address, Wil
son also took a whack at Gov.
Adlai Stevenson, the Democratic
presidential nominee.
In an address to the Legion
Wednesday, Stevenson had said
"I stand to resist pressure from
veterans, too, if I think their de-
I mands are excessive or in conflict
with the public Interest. . ."
'FOUGHT AND BLED'
Taking note of this Wilson de
clared: "We deny that when we stand
up and fight for the rights of vet
erans who fought and bled for
this country that we are pressur
ing." The big 34th annual conven
tion, which brought an estimated
100,000 Legionnaires into town,
ended its proceedings at 5:37 p.m.
One of its last acts was to call
for a Congressional probe of na
tional Selective Service head
quarters, to find out if it is putting
"improper political pressure" on
local draft boards.

Anti-Jewish Move
VIENNA, Austria (AP) The Big Four powers have
unanimously vetoed an Austrian law which would have
permitted pre-war "aryanizers" to lay their hands for a
second time on Jewish property they gained under Hitler.
The rare agreement between Russia and the Western
powers was reached by the Executive Committee of the
four-power Allied Control Council for Austria, it was an
nounced Friday. The vetoed law was one of seven recent
Austrian statutes which have come under fire from much
of the world's press, the U. S.
State Department and Jewish
leaders.
The four occupation powers ap
proved three other laws aiding cer
tain victims of nazism but asked
the Austrian government to broad
en them to include thousands of
Nazi victims who no longer hold
Austrian citizenship.
Still awaiting Allied action are
three other controversial laws
granting amnesties and returning
property to 34,000 former Austrian
Nazis. Jewish leaders have termed
these a "reversal to nazism" and
the U. S. State Department said it
was greatly disturbed" by them.
'RE-ACQUISITION LAW
The Austrian government for
several years has been trying to
get approval of the "re-acquisi-
tion law" rejected by the occupa
tion powers. It would have per
mitted courts to reopen all cases
of property restitution since the
war, thus threatening Nazi victims
who lost property under Hitler and
got it back after the war.
The law, said a State Depart
ment official here, would have "le
galized many forced seizures of
property under the Nazis.'

WASHINGTON (U.R) Former
Sen. Millard E. Tydings (D-Md.)
Friday accepted an "invitation" to
debate "McCarthyism" with Sen.
Joseph R. McCarthy in Wisconsin.
"The question is," said Tydings,
'is McCarthy going to meet me?"
At Milwaukee, the Wisconsin
Renublican commented, "I don't
think I can waste time debating
with the dead."
Tydinos. defeated in 1950 by
Sen. John M. Butler (R-Md.), said
in a statement, "the newspapers
say McCarthy has invited me to
come to Wisconsin so tne gooa
people there can look me over."
Although he has received no
direct bid from McCarthy, Tydings
said he accepted the "invitation"
with "great pleasure."
Tydings, who has charged that
his defeat In 1950 was due to
False lies and propaganda"
spread by McCarthy, said he
wanted McCarthy on the debating
platform with him at Wisconsin.
I want him there," Tydings
said, "so I can have him face to
face in a debate which will expose
and show up once and for all the
fraud and deceit he has practiced
on the fine people of Wisconsin
and the nation."

Demos' Record
MENDENHALL, Miss. (P) Sen.
John Sparkman skipped the
touchy civil rights issue in open
ing his vice presidential campaign
before a deep South audience
Thursday night.
The Alabama senator's blanket
defense of the Democratic plat
form was the nearest he came to
the subject.
The party platform that has
caused strife among many South
ern Democrats contains a pro
posed Fair Employment Practice
Commission, antl-lynch and anti-
poll tax planks.
ALL WALKS OF LIFE'
"I realize there may be things
in the Democratic platform that
all of us cannot agree upon, he
told an audience estimated at be
tween 3,000 and 5,000 in the Men
denhall High School football stadium.
"But remember that this party
of ours is made up of free people
from all walks of life with many
divergent beliefs."
Sparkman recently was called

ics, dissatisfied Mississippi Demo
crats, formed a Democrats-for-Eisenhower
movement and bolted
the regular party.
Sparkman devoted most of his
speech to "what the Democratic
party has done for the people of
this nation." But he took the time
for a few swings at the Republicans.
"About the only issue the Re
publicans can raise is their cry
that it's time for a change," he
said.
"WHAT TO WHAT
"But you people can ask them
you will ask them a change from
what to what?"
The senator then listed benefits
he said the Democratic party has
given the country.
Sparkman also defended the
United Nations in Korea.
Gen. Douglas MacArthur and
even Gen. Eisenhower, who cer
tainly could not be considered
supporters of our party, have said
that we could not have upheld our
honor and stayed out of Korea,"
he asserted.

Mercy Killing
Victim Buried
MIAMI, Fla. (P) Eighteen-
year-old Adela Moskal was bur
ied Thursday after a life of con
stant pain. Her father, who had
killed her to end her years of suf
fering, sobbed at her grave.
John Moskal sent his wife on a
shopping errand Monday, then led
Adela into the bathroom and
plunged a butcher knife into her
heart.
The girl had shown only little
development since birth.
The father and mother stood
dry-eyed while a priest read the
burial service for children. But
when a friend raised her voice in
a prayer in Polish, Moskal wept
and seized Adela s body in his
arms.
He is free in $5,000 bond on a
charge of murder.
