manifestation of this awful
power."
Although he did not elaborate,
it was presumed Churchill was re
ferring to the hydrogen bomb.
However, the United States has
not claimed it has produced an
H-bomb yet. President Truman
merely has authorized the devel
opment of such a weapon.
"When all is said done,"
Churchill said, "it is my belief
that the superiority of the atom
bomb, if not indeed almost the
monopoly of this frightful wea
pon, in American hands is the
surest guarantee of world peace
tonight,
' "It is my earnest hope that we
may find our way to some more
exalted and august foundation for
our safety than this grim and
somber balancing power of the
bomb.
"When I say 'we,' I must not
let you forget that 'we' means the
United States and that it is their
power which protects, ndt only
Britain, but Europe."

square feet, which would allow
for 17 class and laboratory rooms,
library, studv nail, lunch room,
offices, visual aid, book rental,
teachers' and janitors' rooms, a
music suite of 4,000 feet, a gym
nasium of 15,000, shops of 9.000.
The building would be designed
for 600 students, would cost a
maximum of $6S0,0O0 and would
be planned to allow for additions
if these were needed.
Such new construction, opening
the present high school for more
grade use, would make unneces
sary construction of 10 grade
rooms, otherwise consicieren nec
essary, for which outlay of $159,-'
000 has been planned. It would
make unnecessary also a music
room addition at the present gym
nasium and construction of a VO'
cational building, which the earli
er submitted plan involved, and
which would cost $170,000. The
combined offset grade rooms
and high school additions would
be $329,000, leaving $301,000 as
the difference in the cost of the
two plans.
Should the one outlined last
night be adopted, Bushong sug--j
gested, It would have to De under
taken this year in order that
grade school needs still might be
handled through high school de
velopment. Would lCequlre Bonding
To do this, he pointed out, bond
ing would be necessary. Financ
ing, he said, could be done by can
celling the last year of the con
tinuing 15 mill levy, obtaining
authorization by district vote for
use of the proceeds from the re
maining year of the levy for high
school rather than grade pur
poses and by issuing bonds lor
approximately $550,000. Such an
issue, running 10 years, could be
retired by an eight mill property
tax levy for that period, he said.
The board referred the plan for
study and comparison with its
predecessor. Both will be dis
cussed at a meeting next month
with the appointive members of
the budget committee, Carl A.
Johnson, Carl J. Lindh, Carl E.
Erlcksoit ( re-appointed last
night), Marion E. Cady and Dr. G.
W. Winslow, former director and
chairman of -the board, who was
named to succeed H. A. Water
man. The directors heard a report by
Mrs. Almeda J. Hoist, director of
education of handicapped chil
dren, on the work of her depart-,
ment. One hundred fourteen cases
are being handled, she said, in
cluding nine requiring home
teaching.

THE FAMILY SHOE STORE
Some Veterans
Abusing Training
Setup, Declared
By Kuth Gwelncr
(United Vruaa Staff CorriomlimO
Washington, Feb. 14 U- One
ex-GI studying at government ex
pense set out, successfully, to pre
pare himself as a tailor, a theater
technician, a beauty operator, a
welder, and linally a singer.
President Truman said that
was pushing Uncle Sam's gener
osity mighty far. He asked con
gress to make sure that this and
other abuses of the veterans
training program don t happen
again.
Whether congress will follow
his advice was uncertain. Chair
man John E. Rankin of the house
veterans committee said he had
not yet studied the president's re
port. Mr. Truman didn't say so out
right but he made it clear that he
believes the course-jumping vet
eran was interested primarily In
collecting up to $120 a month in
living allowance over the four
year training period.
The president said course-jumping
got so bad recently that the
veterans administration, on its
own authority, ruled against it.
But bills before congress now
would revoke or restrict that rule.
Sharp Practices Cited
Mr. Truman urged congress not
to do this. He proposed that con
gress" take positive steps to tight
en up on other sharp practices
which the presidents advisers
said are soaking the taxpayers
unjustifiably.
One bill which sponsors said
would carry out some of the
president's proposals but which
the veterans administration
claims would run counter to
others has been approved by the
veterans committee and Is on the
house calendar.
Its sponsor, Rep. Olin E.
Teague, D., Tex., said he may of
fer floor amendments to bring it
more in line with the president's
recommendations.
Since the end of the war. 154,
000 veterans have signed up for
courses in three or more differ
ent fields. Here are two of the
flagrant examples of course-hop
ping passed on to congress:
Examples Given
Veteran "A" began but did not
finish a radio repair course. Then
he spent 45 weeks learning the
shoe repair business and another
78 weeks at photography. Tiiw
he has taken up cooking, a class
it will take 78 weeks to finish.
Veteran "B" completed one six-
month course in barriering, an
other in commercial training, and
still another in junior accounting.
After a three-week break, he took
a year's course in carpentry. Then
he spent nine months studying
bookkeeping. Now he wants VA
approval to take up watch re
pairing. The Teague bill, an amended
version of a senate-approved bill
sponsored by Sen. Robert A. Taft,
R., O., would make permanent
some temporary training restric
tions now in effect. Those include
a ban on avocalional training, and
a requirement that private
schools must have been in busi
ness a year before collecting
funds for GI training.
Taft's bill would revoke a VA
regulation which makes it impos
sible for a veteran to shift from
one course to another without the
VA's approval.

Machinist Makes
Leap to Death
San Francisco, Feb. 14 IP
Grief stricken at the break-up of
his home, a 30-year-old machinist
Jumped to his death from the
sixth floor of a downtown depart
ment store while a throng of on
lookers looked on In horror.
Eclmond Lewis climbed out on
a window ledge above the crowds
on Market street yesterday and
teetered there for 15 minutes be
fore deciding to jump.
Hundreds of persons gathered
In a circle around the spot where
they knew Lewis must land. Traf.
f Ic came to a halt In the street.
Police prowl cars, siren wailing,
halted in front of the store. Offi
cers ran inside in hopes of grab
bing Lewis before he could leap.
Firemen tried hurriedly to fix
nets to break his fall.
Before the nets could be fixed,
Lewis rolled up his coat and
placed It carefully on the lecige.
He tossed a battered hat down to
the crowd, as if In warning.
Then he jumped. -

attached. The procession movea
north, with similar ceremonies to
be held at Redmond and Maaras.
Triplets Remain
The triolets remained at St.
Charles hospital, where they will
be cared for until the little lam-
lly Is established in new quar
ters. The two boys and a girl,
named Jerrv Raymond, Sherry
Lynn and Terry Joe, don't know
yet that they've caused so much
excitement. The truck bearing
their gifts carried a poster with
their names: "Jerry, Sherry and
Terry."
The Ashcrafts lived in a trailer-
.house until the triplets were born,
but members of the AFL union
with which Ashcraft is affiliated,
got busy right away with plans
to provide them with a ral home.
Botli materials and labor are to
be donated. While the house Is
being constructed, they will live
In temoorary quarters which have
been "loaned.
Many Gifts
The gifts assembled In Bend
Included a number of articles for
the whole family, as well as spe
cial equipment to facilitate care
of three tinv hahies. There was a
"triple-threat" stroller, with two
seats on the ground level and
one attached higher, on the sturdy
handle. There were numerous
111 He garments, a set of dishes
with service for six, cases of
baby lood, and several envelopes
containing cash. A local paint
store gave a paint job for the
new house. Observers remarked
that It will be more exciting than
a dozen Christmases, when the
couple unwrap thep resents and
set up their new housekeeping
schedule.
Mrs. Ashcraft is (he daughter
of Mr. and Mrs. Charles John
son of Madras. Ashcraft, a native
of Ouemeno, Kan., is employed
