Tragedy Takes
Life of Bend -Man
Monday
A Bend trout fisherman, was
drowned yesterday afternoon at
Crane prairie and his companion
had a narrow escape from a simi
lar fate when they fell Into the
water from their boat, as they
...were attempting to make their
"cay through partly submerged
snags In the reservoir.
Dead is Roy Sullivan, 44, oper
alor with his wife of a lunch
counter in the Ponderosa club, I
au oona street.
Rescued after clinging to a
snag for more than 15 minutes
was Nicholas J. Deuchscher, Sul
livan's fishing companion, also a
resident of Bend.
; Sullivan's body was recovered
about 25 minutes after the acci
dent and artificial respiration was
, attempted without avail. The
body was brought to the surface
by Eugene C. Lee, Corvallls fish
' erman also- on the reseryolr at
the time, after several dives.
Neither Able to Swim
According to an account of the
tragedy given Investigating au
thorities by Deuchscher, he and
Sullivan had been bait fishing in
the snag-infested area. Neither
man could swim. Sullivan was
standing in the front of; the boat,
attempting to push snags aside
when he fell Into the water,
Deuchscher said. '
Deuchscher said he extended
an oar to the struggling man and
that Sullivan was able to grasp it
mementarily, but In the fight to
retain his balance he, Deuchscher,
also fell' from the boat into the
water. He was able to grasp - a
snag and support, himself, while
-Uitmng iorr;neip, - utner Boatmen
on the reservoir soon responded,
but not in time to save Sullivan.
' The body was brought to Bend
yesterday evening by Dr. George
W. Wlnslow, Deschutes county
coroner, and is being held at the
Niswonger-Wlnslow chapel pend
ing funeral arrangements. No in
quest is planned, the coroner said
today. - v
Wife Survives
Surviving Sullivan are his Wife,
Ethel; several foster children and
relatives in Kansas. He had been
a resident of Bend for about two
and one-half years, formerly re
siding at Hampton and Redmond.
This is the first fishing tragedy
to occur in Central Oregon this
year. -

New Ballot Set
By Woodworkers
PORTLAND, June 23 U A
second strike ballot today was on
Its way to some 40,000 CIO Wood
workers in the Pacific Northwest.
The vote'will determine wheth
er the members of the Interna
tional Woodworkers of America
favor a strike to back up their
demands for wage increases. The
ballots are due to be back' at In
ternational headquarters here
July 17.
The first strike ballot was can
celled a few days ago by the in
ternational committee because
'the committee said a wage in
' crease granted by the. Weyer
haeuser Timber company to its
' employes had changed the pic
ture In the Northwest. Weyer
haeuser granted a five cents an
hour pay boost. Othes employers,
however, refused to go along.
The committee recommended
the workers authorize the strike
authority.
British Columbia members of
the IWA have concluded hearings
. before the Board of Conciliation.
' The union asks 15 cents an hour
pay Increase. Base pay now is
$1.35 an hour plus nine cents an
hour cost of living Increase.
Carl Winn, international secre-tary-treasurer,
said the Board is
required to make its decision
within 10 days. The contract ex
t'plred June 15 but continues in
I force until the Board acts. -t

Oregon's No. 1 industry keep
going.
There will be two exceptions.
No log hauling on public highways
Saturday July 4. And no hauling

Polish Skipper
Seeking Asylum
LONDON, June 23 HPi Capt.
Jan Cwiklinskl, the skipper of the
Polish liner Bntory when Ameri
can Communist leader Gerhart
Elsler fled the United States
aboard the ship, has abandoned
his command and asked political
asylum In Britain.
The captain's break with the
Red Polish regime was disclosed
tonight by the British home of
fice. It was Capt. Cwlylinsky who,
on May 6, 1949, helped the ball
jumping Elsler to sneak aboard
his vessel and escape to Commu
nist run East Germany.
Elsler at the time was free on
$23,500 bond while awaiting sen
tence on charges of contempt of
Congress and making false state
ments In an application for an
exit permit. , ,
The Polish captain 'staged his
run out on the Polish Commu
nists while the Batory was being
refitted recently In a British dry
dock at Newcastle-on-Tyne.
Cwlkllnsky, the home office an
nounced, did not sail with his 14,-
287 ton liner when It started Its
return voyage to Poland.
His request for political asy
lum is "under consideration," the
home office announcement said. ;
Cwiklinskl held the rank of a
commander in the Polish mer
chant marine.
He told Clark at tba DresidentiaU:
palace in a remarkably friendly I
meeting that his decision to reject
the - current agreement between
the United Nations and Commu
nists is unchanged
Clark flew back to Tokyo shortly
afterward, giving Rhee a cordial
back slap before getting on the
plane,
Rhee -denied reports Clark had
handed him an. ultimatum during
a 70 minute meeting yesterday and
the brief encounter today,
'It would be more correot to say
I delivered the' ultimatum," Rhee
said. -.-"::.'" . '
1 ' Rhee Outnumbered
United Nations officials and
Eighth Army officers appeared
convinced the rebellious Rhee ac
tually would not send his 400,000
man army against 1,000,000 Chi
nese and North Koreans.
They believed, however, that
Rhee had "reserved the 'right" to
take independent action against
the Communists. .
Rhee branded India as a "com
munist" state which would Tavor
Red "explainers" in re-lndoctrl-nating
anti-Communist prisoners.
For this reason, Rhee 8 a I d a
clash between South Korean and
Indian troops would be "Inevitable.".-
:
Armistice Delayed
- A member of Rhee's ' cabinet
said he did not believe Clark would
be able to settle the differences
between Rhee and the U. N in
dicating this would have to be un
dertaken at a "higher level."
He presumably referred to the
arrival in the East tomorrow of
Assistant Secretary of State Walter
Robertson and Army Chief of
Staff Gen. J. Lawton Collins,
: "The truce will he delayed for
some time," the cabinet member
predicted. ' ,
