I.C.C. Requests
Safety Devices
Washington, March 21 u The
interstate commerce commission
today ordered the Spokane, Port
land and Seattle railway to show
cause by May 15 why it should
not install adequate safety de
vices on its line between Wish
ram, Wash., and Bend, Ore;
The order accompanied an ICC
report of aa accident near Oak
brook, Ore., Feb. 1, when two
freight trains collided head-on be
cause of the failure of an engi
neer to obey a written train or
'der. The engineer and another
i employee were killed and six in
I Jured. ,
The report also referred to an
other accident on this line in Jan
uary, 1942, in which two employes
were killed and three injured. At
that time the ICC recommended
that adequate safety devices be
installed. Neither of the accidents
would have happened if the road
' had provided proper mechanical
means to prevent two trains from
occupying the same section of
,p track, the ICC said.

Job in Hospital
Portland, Ore., March 21 IP)
A liberalized policy In dealing
with conscientious objectors was
in force in the Portland federal
court today. .
Federal Judge Claude McColloch
revealed the new procedure in
placing 27-year-old Kenneth D.
Taylor of Farwcll, Tex., on pro
bation for the duration of the war
and six months thereafter, or not
to exceed' 10 years.
Offenders of this sort previous
ly have received county jail or
penitentiary terms and remanded
to the custody of the U. S. attorn
ey general.
Sent To Hospital
Judge McColloch said In the
future conscientious objectors
tried in Portland will be turned
over to the federal probation of
fice of the U. S. district court
and their activity will be deter
mined by probation officials. In
Nunn's case, he is being assigned
to duty in a tuberculosis hospital
in The Dalles, Ore.
"It has been the policy of the
attorney general In the past,
through the department of jus
tice," Judge McColloch comment
ed, "to place 'conchies' in road
camps or similar detention areas
and to give them a choice of work
ing in hospitals or other places
after they have been confined for
30 days.
"From now on this court will
avoid this roundabout procedure
by recourse to its probationary
authority. The probation officer
will designate the hospital or
other institution to which any de.
lenaent iouna guilty of violating
the selective service act on
grounds of conscientious aversion
to fighting shall be sent."

Remember he represents more than just
the American Red Cross . . . he speaks for hundreds

bring a bit of laughter to wounded men lying in
hospitals; a bit of hope to American boys stagnating
in prison camps; a bit of home to men who have
not seen home in years.
Your Red Cross must be at his side for a long,

the men overseas, all need Red Cross help. So give more this year for the need is
