munist to the soviet union so he
con lit find out at first hand "what
we already know."
Josef Svlchnr and his family
of four are Russian Ukrainians
ond bitterly ontl-communlst. They
arrived at the W, O. Putnam
dairy farm under the displaced
persons program.
The Svlchars told their story
through their freckled, cheerful
16-yoar-old. daughter, Antonlna.
Antonina was the only member
of the family who enn speak Eng
lish. "So. My parents say they will
save wages for six months to
send an American communist nnd
his family to Russia to find out
what we already know," said An-
omian's Body Fdyodl
delitinl HOclion into u .scene of
ilood and terror.
The three remaining injur
ed u wonmn and two hoys
were still in the hospital hut
their condition was not criti
cal. The Wilson boy, his mother and
grandmother were shot while
they sat In an automobile waiting
for a truffle light. The two wom
en were killed Instantly with
single shots.
Unruh told police Ills resent
ment against the neighborhood
storekeepers the druggist, the
shoemaker, the barber and the
tailor - drove him to the killings.
ItfMentrd CilMsIp
"'Hie neighbors had been talk
ing alxnit me for some time anil
making derogatory remarks
iiImiih my character," Unruh told
police, "i had been thinking about
killing them for some time."
Police said neighbors told them
the 27-yeurold Unruh "huted
everybody, cspccliilly storekeep
ers whom he referred to us
'money chungers'."
Unruh. who turned a Camden
street Into a scene of carnage yes
terday with 20 minutes of delib
erate murder with a .3S caliber
Ucrmun glin, will not lie arraign!
eu at least until next wcck.
Ir. Paul Mi-Cray of the C"oer
hospital said Unruh's wound wus
of such a depth he probably
would have to remain there lor
possibly two weeks.
Camden county prosecutor
Mitchell Cohen said despite the
situation he would file 13 individ
ual complaints of murder with a
police Judge today. Cohen also
iiuil two more psychiatrists exam

"For You I Die" and "Fear In the
Night."

Unruh was kept under heavy
police guard at Cooper hospital
last nli'.ht where he underwent a
minor operation to remove a po
lice bullet from the fleshy part of
Ills thigh. It was Ills only injury
in the battle yesterday in which
he stood off 100 police liefore be
ing driven to surrender by the use
of tear gas.
Unruh's explanation of why he
became the greatest mass killer
In homecldal history was that he
became resentful of his neighbors
"the druggist, the shoemaker,
the burlier and the tailor."
The druggist, the shoemaker,
the barber and the tailor's wife
died at his hands along with an
insurance man, a television re

Pumice

Pictured above Is one of the numerous pumice mines, or open pits, in the Bend area. Picture shows
a pit In the Utooks Seunlun, Inc., yards south of the city. The mill has been using this pumice for
ballast on its railroad tracks, and is said to have found it very satisfactory. A recent report by the
slate department of geology and mineral industries, lists five active mining operations in the Bend
urea; one ul Chemult and one at Burns. "In addition," the report states, "it is understood that two
new operations are In the formative stage. The report also comments: "While there are fewer pro
ducing ojietatlons today than there were in 1947, those currently active appear for the most part to be
well-established. Pumice aggregates are now being produced In sized and segregated shape, or as a
blend tinder controlled conditions, as compared to the crude screened product put out when the indus
try was in ils infancy. A pumice plaster sand is now being produced by two of the operators. This
puts the pumice industry into a new field, and reports .are that the product Is being very favorably
accepted by the plaster trode because of the lightness in weight of the pumice plaster and Its relative
hardness ol finish."

waii's $30,000,000 dock strike in
session "as long as there is any
hope in the direction" of an agree
ment.
Chlng made the statement at a
press conference as he brought
together representatives of seven
Hawaiian stevedoring companies
and of 2,000 dock workers whose
strike on higher wage demands
now is in its fifth month.
"We are going into this thing
fresh, to see what contribution
we can make toward a. settle
ment," Chlng said.
He added that he did not have
"the slightest idea" how long the
negotiation conferences would
last. He said he would be here
throughout the negotia 1 1 o n s
which will be directed by a four
man mediation team.

Seven representatives of the
stevedoring companies and a
three-man negotiating committee

The negotiators came here from
Honolulu at Chlng's invitation.
The strike began May 1 on the
union's demand for a 32-cent
hourly wage increase.
Ching was asked whether the
sessions would constitute final
"make or break" negotiations.
He answered:
"We are going to do everything
possible' that we can to try to
have the parties reach an agree
ment. 'We have no authority nor de
sire to impose anything on either
side. But we will try to help
them reach an agreement, and as
long as there is any hope in that
direction we'll try to keep at it."

they can.
Plane Turns Back
On Faulty Signal
Medford. Sept. 7 upl-A faulty
signal system which flashed a
false fire alarm today caused a
Northwest Airlines Honolulu
bound plane to turn back 350
miles to the mainland and land at
Medford.
Pilot Richard Allen said a com
plete survey of the plane showed
that there was no sign of fire or
smoke anywhere in the aircraft.
The flight originated in Seattle,
flew to Portland, and took off for
Honolulu at 2:15 a.m. with 11 pas
sengers and a crew of six aboard.
Five hundred miles out the fire
signal flashed on. Normally, this
would have been a warning of a
fire in the baggage compartment.
Crewmen searched the compart
ment but neither saw or smelled
smoke.
The light flashed off, then on
again. Pilot Green decided to turn
back to Medford, the nearest
large airport, 350 miles to the
east. During the flight back the
signal went on and off twice.
Northwest Airlines headquar
ters in Portland said that the
plane probably would return to
Portland later today after a com
plete check by mechanics and in
stallation of new fire extinguish

Into Unusual
Death Slated
The body of a man, Identified
by documents and letters on his
person as Lee Bergstrom, 224 N.
Rossmore avenue, Los Angeles,
was found Tuesday at about 4:30
p.m. in Paulina lake. He was be
lieved to be about 52 years old.
The body was floating In the
water near an empty boat. It had
not overturned and the motor
had been shut off. Bergstrom,
who had visited the lake on fish
ing trips on previous occasions,
left the shore in his boat, alone,
at about 10 o'clock yesterduy
morning. Although he had fish
ing tackle at the lake, there was .
none in his boat, it was reported.
Details Unusual
Sheriff C. L. McCauley said to.
day that several unexplained cir
cumstances would be investigated.
The sheriff said that death may
have been from a cause other
than drowning, because the fact
that the body was floating indi;
cated there might have been little
or no water in the lungs, and "
that he may have been dead when
he entered the water. Possibili
ties of suicide or a heart attack
a (so were being considered.
