Following his Informal talk to the hospital group. Bishop Bennett was told that the administrative and man agement methods he had described were very similar to those worked out by the foundation in the ad ministration of tsena s new mil lion dollar hospital. In Bend, the foundation board and an administrative committee works with the Sisters of St. Jo seph, who operate the local hos pital, in business matters. Bishop Bennett had described a similar arrangement in his diocese.

High way 97 north of LaPine to East Lake. The improved road will reach Newberry crater over a line en tirely different from the present road that closely follows Paulina Creek. The new road is on an easy grade, with wide curves in the few places where the route "bends" through forests of jackpine and cut over lands. Within the crater, between Pau lina and East lakes, a number of major changes have been made in the route, to eliminate curves and bad ditches. The road across the craler Is now In use, but the route from The Dalles-California High way to the- western crater rim re mains blocked to travel, while con struction is under way. Work on the new road is now in its second year. Fine Route When the Newberry Crater road is completed next year, motorists will concede it is one of the finest mountain routes in Central Oregon it is the belief of persons who have driven oer the new route.

Elsenhower ac cussed the Truman administra tion Thursday of arrogance born of being "too long in the seat of the mighty." The Republican presidential nominee launched an eight-stop swing across Iowa with a speech on the steps of trie Scott County Courthouse. "We want to get rid of those people soon," he said, protesting that the present government has lived too long oh crises. , "We've had excuses and alibis all based on emergency," Elsen hower said. People "Worried" He said that during his travels across the Midwest he met peo pie everywhere who are "wor ried." He said he wondered why, with all the natural wealth In this country, they should be confused. Eisenhower said that after think ing about it he concluded some thing was wrong with the na tion's leadership. Mentioning the Korean conflict he asked why the country seemed to be 'fumbling and stumbling" In the search for peace. , "We are not accustomed to the kind of leadership that leaves us bewildered. We want to get rid of these people soon," he said. Inclement Weather For the first time since he be gan touring the country Sept; 2 Eisenhower ran Into inclement weather at Davenport. Thare were occasional droDS of rain as the candidate And his wife were Introduced to a crowd of 5,000 to 6,000, many of the children, on the steps of- the courthouse. Eisenhower resumed his role as a rear platform speaker in an attempt to woo Iowa back to its traditional Republicanism. Aides said the Republican pres idential nominee would dwell on the "corruption" issue in nine Iowa appearances during the dav and make a major farm speech tonight at umana, Neb. Eisenhower told an audience in the Rock Island, 111., Armory Wednesday , night that he is a galnst repeal of the Taft-Hartley Act, but favors amendment "In many important particulars." It was a replay of his talk be fore the AFL convention in New York earlier in the day. The nom inee told the AFL leaders that the labor laws should be altered to eliminate "union-busting" pro visions and to require employers, as well as union leaders, to take non-Communist oaths. But the rest of the Taft-Hart ley provisions should be left on the books, he told the convention delegates. Elsenhower, after speaking In Davenport, scheduled stops at Iowa City, Marengo, Grinnell, Newton, Des Moines, Atlantic and Council Bluffs, with "slow downs" at West Liberty and Brooklyn. New Heat Wave Hits Bend Area Near-record late September heat sent the temperature in Bend up to 85 degrees at 1 p.m. louay, and it seemed probame that the 90 degree mark would be reached by mid-afternoon. Yesterday's high was 86 de grees, registered about 3 p.m. Through the years, 90 degree temperatures have been rather common in Bend, but usually the high marks were recorded In the early parts of the month. In 1934, the mercury soared to an all-time high September mark, 97 degrees, in Bond. That high mark was registered early In the month, on September 3. County Concludes Oiling for Year Oiling operations on Deschutes county roads have been completed for this year with the oiling of the Collins road, which was finished this week, it was announced today by George H. McAllister, county roadmaster. During the current year the coun ty has built and oiled 10.5 miles of new road and 20 miles of teal coating on other roads within the county. Road crews are still doing grading work on the county's por tion of the Paulina lake road pre paratory to the start of oiling operations next spring. In Authority Navy Uses Quided Missiles Against Commies in Korea By ROBERT GIBSON TOKYO, Sept. 18 (IT) The U. S. Navy has a fleet of 1,800 deadly guided missile planes and is al ready using some of them against the Communists In Korea. The Navy's leading guided mis sile expert in the Far East, Lt. Cmdr. Lawrence A. Kurtz said Thursday the United States has enough of the accurate hard-hitting robots . "Immediately available to launch large scale attacks." Some of the 1,800 planes convert ed to guided missiles are capable of delivering the atomie bomb, Kurtz said. "It is just a question of time un til the guided missiles take over aerial war," he said. "They can be refueled In the air, making continent-to-continent warfare' possi ble." This correspondent saw the mis siles in action against the enemy on the carrier Boxer in Korean wa ters several days ago, when an enemy target was successfully de stroyed by a robot. It was like watching the war of the future. Kurtz said the Navy has con verted 1,800 planes to drones, but he said that not all of them were equipped -with television, which is used to guide the robots to their Group of Wealthy Californians Said Backing Nixon NEW YORK, Sept. 18 (aV-A"C(iii-fornia attorney was quoted by the New Yolk Post Thursday as say ing that a group of wealthy Cali fornians had oaid Republican vice- presidential candidate Richard Nix on between $16,000 and 17,000 since his election to the Senate two years ago. The newspaper quoted Dana C. Smilh, dlsburser of the alleged "Millionaires' Club" donations, as saying the contributions were made from a trust fund set up solely "to enable Dick to do A selling job to the American people in be half of private enterprise and in tegrity in government." The dispatch said Smith made the disclosure In a' Joint Interview with the Post's reporter, Leo Katch- er; Ernest Brashear of the Los An geles Dally News and Richard Donovan of Reporter Magazine. It described Smith as a corporation attorney, investment banker and head of the California Volunteers for Eisenhower. Fund Raising He said the fund raising began shortly after Nixon's election In 1950 to the senatorial post which carries a yearly salary of $12,500 and a yearly tax-free expense ac count of $2,500. Smith said It was apparent to Nixon's wealthy backers that his Senate salary was "pltltuiiy inade quate" for "the kind of job he wanted to do and that we wanted him to do." 'We limited contributions from any one source or any one family to $500 a year so that no one could say that we were buying a senator or accuse us of owning one," Smith was quoted. Figures Olven He said he had disbursed, to Nixon, $16,000 or $17,000 of the monies collected from "between 50 and 100 people" and placed on de posit with the First Trust and Savings Bank of Pasadena. The newspaper said: "The total amount of the fund and how much still ro mains to be expended during the current year was not disclosed." The newspaper said that "it was apparent" Smith "saw no similari ty between the gifts from the trust fund and those gifts, received by members of the administration, which Nixon has labeled 'corrup tion' In his campaign speeches." Smith was quoted as saying the funds were solicited on the ground that Nixon would be competing for prominence with his fellow Cali fornia Republican Sen. William F. Knowland, who Is wealthy In his own right, and would need more money for entertainment and liv ing expenses than when he was a member of the House of Repre sentatives. More Representative Smith sold he and the contribut ing group found Nixon more repre sentative of their views than Knowland or Gov. Earl Warren. I "Knowland Is almost unknown." he said.

Taft labeled Gov. Adlai Stevenson a "captive" of the Truman administration Wednesday night and urged Americans to vote for Dwlght D. Elsenhower for President. Taft called for support of Repub lican candidates in the first speech of his personal campaign for the five-star general who beat him oyt of the Republican presidential nomination. "Mr. Republican" told an enthu siastic crowd of 2,100 that Eisen hower hod "proved his capacity to lead, his sound knowledge of men and world conditions, and his grasp of the fundamental principles of American free government." Much Applause Taft was interrupted by annlausc 14 times during the 30-minute speech. He drew his loudest ap plause when he snld: "There is only one way to change the phi losophy ot government spending and power, and that is to olect General Elsenhower and let him create a new administration, with new faces and new thoughts." Taft said he and the GOP candi date disagree on some Issues, "though we agree a good deal more than Governor Stevenson does with Senator (Harry E.) Byrd." Byrd, a Virginia Democrat. has been an outspoken critic of government spending policies. Big Cuts Seen If Stevenson were President I art said, he could not escape domination by bureau chiefs whoso philosophy Is "government spend ing ana increased government pow er." He predicted that Elsenhower. as President, would cut the federal budget to $60,000,000,000 by the 1955 fiscal year. The "one great fundamental is sue" In the 1952 election, Taft de clared, Is "the resumption and con tinuation of progress under a free American way of life, as opposed to the alleged advances to be ol tnlned by surrendering our money ana our freedom to the tender mer cies of an all-powerful and nrhl trary government."

Ingly accurate," wrote the United . tress correspondent who saw the missiles launched from the air craft carrier Boxer. ' Repercussions from the disclo sure of the use of guided missiles came from all over the world.
