Owen Lattimore
By JAMES F. DONOVAN
WASHINGTON, Deo. 17 TO
Justice Department sources said
: Wednesday the FBI has lined up
several "surprise" witnesses to
j testify in the perjury trial of tar
.." eastern specialist Owen Latti
, more.
While informants refused to iden
tlfy any of the potential witnesses,
they said some are from foreign
countries, mainly in 'the Orient.
Lattimore, 52-year old Johns
Hopkins University professorand
one-time State Department consult-
at, ' was indicted by a federal
- grand jury Tuesday on charges-he-':
lied seven times during his testi
mony last winter before the Senate
Internal Security subcommittee.
He promptly protested his inno
cence. 70-Year Maximum
One count of the indictment
charged Lattimore lied when he
denied under oath he has ever been
a promoter of Communism or .Com
munist interests. If convicted of all
seven counts, he would be liable
to a maximum penalty of 70 years
in prison.
Dr. Detlev W. Bronk, president
of Johns Hopkins University, an
nounced that Lattimore would be
given "leave of absence, with sal
ary" from the university faculty.
Bhonk said he acted on the ad-
vice of Johns Hopkins faculty mem-
bers, and with the approval of the
' Board of Trustees. Lattimore
heads the university's Walter Hines
' Page School of International Rela-
tions.
Lattimore's arraignment was
tentatively set for 10 a.m. Friday.
But government attorneys said the
date for his first appearance in
court may be postponed to permit
" his attorneys, the firm of Arnold.
' Fortas & P o r t e r, to file motions
in his behalf.
V v After Jan. 20
Prosecutors conceded there
wasn't a "ghost of a chance" that
they could bring the case to tria'
before Attorney general-designate
Herbert Brownell Jr. takes over
the department for the Republi
cans on Jan. 20.
Lattimore, who conferred at
length with his attorneys Tuesday
night, indicated he will fight the
charges all the way up to the Su
preme Court if necessary.
' "If I should not, it would be an
' evil day in our country for free
' dom of conscience, of research,
and of comment." he said. 'There
are freedoms that should be guard-
ed by all. but by university pre
feasors with a special devotion.

After Resignation
Of Gov. McKay
SALEM. Dec. 17 (IB Douglas Mc
Kay resigned Wednesday as gov
ernor ot Oregon, effective nt 10
a. m. Paul L. Patterson of Hills
bora, who was president of the
Oregon Senate at the last Legis
lature, was sworn in as governor
by Chief Justice James T. Brand
of the Oregon Supreme Court.
. McKay is slated to become sec
retary of the interior jn the cabinet
of President-elect Dwight D. Ei
senhower. He said he wanted to
resign as soon us possible to give
Patterson an opportunity to become
familiar with, the duties of gov
ernor and to give Patterson a
chance to prepare his message to
the 195 s Legislature.
McKay issued this statement:
"The resignation that I have filed
today ending my service as gov
ernor of Oregon is the result of the
most difficult decision. It was pos
sible only because I hoped that I
could be of service to the people
of Oregon as well as the people of
the nation by active participation
in the new administration. Dwignt
D. Elsenhower inspires the best

County Officials
Discuss Problems
With Lawmakers
County Judge and Commission
ers front six Central Oregon
counties were meeting . at the
court house today with their
legislative representatives to dis
cuss various proposals of their
state association of county off!
cers to be submitted to the forth
coming legislative session.
At the morning session State
Senator Philp S. Hitchcock of
Klamath Falls was the only legis
lator present but It was expected
that several others, including
Representatives B. A. Stover and
A. C. Goodrich, would attend the
session this afternoon.
Among recommendations con
sidered this morning was one
that asked the legislature to
amend the law to permit public
employes now under the state
retirement act to continue bene
fits under that act even though
they might be compelled to go
under national social security.
Under the present federal law a
person under any other pension
plan is not permitted to go under
social security.
Act Repealed
Senator Hitchcock told the offi
cials that In the state of Utah
tho legislature repealed the state
retirement act and automatically
placed all public employes under
social security. Then, the same
day.' the legislature re-enacted the
state retirement act, thus per
mitting the employes to get bene
fits from both the state and fed
eral acts.
Senator Hitchcock said it might
bo necessary for the Oregon
legislature to take similar action
to provide such a loophole to
permit public employes to obtain
tho benefits of both acts. The
federal law docs not prohibit a
person under social security Irom
going under any other pension
act.
Another recommendation of the
county officials was for an inter
mediate correctional Institution
for transgressors too old for the
McLaren s Boys School at Wood
burn and too young for the state
prison at balem. Senator Hitch
cock said he strongly fnvored
such an Institution.
Change Suggested
Another recommendation was
for the election of directors of
hospital districts by zones rather
than at large as Is done under
the present law.
Several present were not In
favor of another recommendation
that the names of persons re
ceiving public welfare be made
public. It was recommended that
names of all welfare recipients
be placed on file In the county
clqrk's office where they would
I become public records,
j A final recommendation con
l sldered this morning was one
I which opposed any Increase in
I the mandatory 4.5 mill tax levy
I for relief purposes.
Sworn In
"Tho ' decision could not have
been made had I not felt that the
governorship would pass into qual
ified and capable hands. The splen
did record of Paul Patterson in all
his distinguished public service is
guarantee of courageous and vig
orous leadership. The state will go
forward under his administration.
"It would be impossible ade
quately to thank all those who
worked with me In the state ad
ministration and the thousands of
sincere citizens whose encourage
ment, support and counsel sustain
ed our efforts. I can only say that
I shall remain forever grateful
and shall endeavor in my new re
sponsibilities in, Washington, to
Justify their confidence and faith."
The governor's formal office was
well filled with legislative and
other leaders of Oregon and with
friends of both McKay and Patter-
lon. Mrs, McKay was there. So
was Mrs. Patterson, and the new
governor's son, Paul Jr. came up
irom Lamp KODerts, cant., where
he is a private in the Army, for
the ceremony.
Htatement Made
After Patterson was sworn In bv
Chief Justice James T. Brand of
the Oregon Supreme Court, Justice
Brand told him as they shook
hands: -
"Gov. Patterson, I congratulate
the people of Oregon."
Then Patterson read this state
ment: -
"I am tremendously blessed with
Whe opportunity to serve the peo
ple ot my stato as tneir governor.
"II is particularly pleasing that
this opportunity was created by
ine naming ot uov, , Douglas Mc
Kay to a position of Important
trust in the Eisenhower adminis
tration. His appointment symbol
izes to the nation recognition of
integrity, sincerity and a common
sense approach to the problems of
national administration which he
has so ably demonstrated in his
Oregon administration.
"The people of Oregon in 1952
approved and endorsed tho McKay
program for Oregon. It is lny re
sponsibility and my intention to
continue that program. Three ob
jectives will have my special In
terest ana concern:
"That Oregon shall hove a state
government whose Integrity and
fairness will justify the unlimited
confidence of the people of the
state.
Maximum Efficiency
"That we carry on the reorgan
ization of governmental functions
to achieve a maximum of effici
ency and economy, while at the
same time recognizing that through
consideration is necessary to insure'
that each change is sound and con
structive. "That during this period when
national defense has a first claim
our tax resources, stulc lax
demands should be held to a prop
er minimum and that Oregon shall
guarantee that no one is required
to pay more than his fair share
Dccause otners escape lavorlttsm
or loopholes or law r adminis
tration.
"I am not unmindful of the dif
ficulties that lie ahead In these
critical times. I am confident,
however, that with the aid and
assistance of the many fine people
of Oregon who hove expressed
their desire to help, I can succeed
in carrying on the work of my
great predecessor."
Post Office is Busy
By KEN I.. HICKS
The Bend post office was Into
the big holiday rush this week,
with large amounts of Incoming
and outgoing mall being handled
more expeditiously than In pre
vious years, due to Improved fa
cilities for dispatching and
delivery, it was reported today by
Farley Elliott, postmaster.
The huge pileup of mail that In
other years literally has taxed
Bend postofflce facilities to the
utmost has been reduced materially
this season. Elliott attributes this
condition to several factors, chief
of which Is the truck service that
has made possible early delivery
nnd dispatch of mail here. One
highway postofflce truck arrives
at 4 a.m. dajly and another one
comes In at 4 p.m. This service
enables local post office employes
to move out accumulated mail,

Facilities Improved
In addition improved arrange

a postage meter that eliminates
some time formerly lost in affix

One perennial problem beset
ting the Bend post office that of
incomplete addresses Is unchang
ed this year. Elliott estimates
that more than 11000 letters and
some packages arrive hero each
holiday season with incorrect or
inadequate addresses. The most
common fault Is an address that
merely gives a name, then "Bend.

Change Urged
In NW Power
Arrangement
SEATTLE, Dec. 17 llri Two pro
posals advocating that operation
and financing of hydroelectric pow
er In the Pacific Northwest be di
vorced from the federal govern
ment were advanced Tuesday at
the 23rd meeting of the Bonneville
Regional Advisory Council.
Dr. Paul J. Raver, Bonneville
power administrator, advocated
elimination of the federal govern
ment from the generating, distri
bution and sale of hydroelectric
power in the area. He said his
proposal wus made for "explora
tory purposes" and he urged the.
creation of a regional board to
take over the functions of the fed
eral government.
i'l suggest we take power com
pletely out of the hands of the
federal government," Dr. Raver
said. "And place It In the hands
of a regional board, cither elected
or appointed by the governors of
the states concerned.
"This board should be given the
power to build dams and finance
them. It would be nothing but a
power agency set up to conduct a
power business only." .
In a research committee report,
Dr. Maurice W. Lee, deun of the
School of Economics and Business
at Washington State College set
up two criteria for the financing
program ana advanced a bond Is
sue plan to meet those criteria. -
The report stated that a revenue
bond program Instead of appropri
ations, us at present, would meet
the criteria for-financing.

each year, however, due to lack

No directory service is given
second class mail, nor is It return

services are provided by the post
office, however, for first class mall.
Thus there Is a better chance for
the delivery of Inadequately ad
dressed first class mail, than for
other classes, Elliott conceded, al
though he deplored insufficient

consuming much valuable time,
usually when post office employes
