'Red Dean' In Hot Wafer Over Sermon IXJNDON (UP) - The "Red Dean" of Canterbury's first pro Communist sermon in the Church of England's mother cathedral landed the party-lining prtlate in some of the hottest water of his stormy career today. Dr. Hewlett Johnson, the contra- vei-sial "Red Dean," had kept Communism out of his sermons in the ancient shrine of Canterbury during his years of pink-tinged preaching and periodic missions to Moscow. But on Sunday the 81-year-oid Stalin prize winner told worship pers that Christianity and Commu nism have "many points' of con tact which will pave a road to unity" and said the two faiths "will eventually bring blessings to the entire human race." The Red dean, who supported Communist China's charges of American germ warfare in Korea, has run into trouble before includ ing demands in the House of Com mons for his ouster. Today almost the entire British press demanded that something be done. "Candidus," editorial columnist of the Daily Sketch, said it was "lamentnbje" that the church can not "turn the dean loose to . . . peddle his politics from his soap box. He is a blot and a stain on the Church of England ..." In 1950 the Archbishop of Canter bury wrote that "It is unfortunate ly true that the dea: has so con ducted himself as to create em barrassment wherever he goes. "He cannot be removed from office till he breaks some law, ec clesiastical or civil, the arch bishop said. "He has a perfect lib erty to say what he says since there is no law against it ... " NrWifflnlPa Bids Too Low, Board Decides Bend school district lots on the east side of Broadway, south of; Kansas avenue, remained unsold today. Bids opened by the school board at its meeting in the lib rary at the high school Monday night were two in number one from O. & B. Development Co, for $500, the other from Fred L. Hartman for $1,850. The board turned down both. Auction bidding was to have fol lowed the opening of the written offers, but Carl Baekstrom, repre senting O. & B., said that his com pany would not participate. Hart man declined to bid against him self and the board voted to re ject the written proposals. Appraisals of the two and one- half lot property had been received by the district previous to the meeting. They ranged from $5,000 to $12,000. Richard Risner, of Portland, who on successive years has repaired high school and gymnasium wall exteriors here, won the contract for another installment of tuck- pointing on a bid of $4,036. On'y other bidder, Corey A. Gustafson, also of Portland, proposed to do the job for $-1,710.39. DOO MONEY ROBINSON, 111. (UP) Brownie, a cocker spaniel owned by Post master H. L.

WII,SON United Press Staff Oorrpondent WASHINGTON (UP) The way the political chips are falling, it would have to be in 1960 that Su preme Court Justice William O. Douglas would make his play for the Democratic presidential nomination. The idea that Douglas has his eye on the White House persists in Washington. The justice does nothing to counteract it, either. On the contrary, Douglas refuses to abide in the ivory tower usually reserved for members of the high court. He sounds off on political ques tions from time to time and, un like his colleague, Associate Jus tice Felix Frankfurter, Douglas performs in public. The nower-be- hind-the-throne role so often attri buted to Frankfurter apparently has no appeal for Douglas. Douglas' latest was a statement i Tokyo that Red China should have diplomatic recognition and that Nationalist China should be booted off the United Nations Se curity Council to make way for some other Asiatic nation. That startling proposal is sub stantially a replay of what Doug las has said before, the first time in 1951 when he so shocked some members of Congress that there were murmurs in the House that the justice should be impeached. Threats No Surprise Threats of impeachment don't Jefferson Wheat Growers Favor Marketing Quotas Special to The Ilullelin ! MADRAS Jefferson county wheat farmers voiced their npprov-i al of marketing quotas on their: 1955 crops in Saturday's referen-i dum by a strong majority, 104-' 29. In addition, five farmers who voted out of their communities had their votes challenged. The 1.18 total was two higher than the 1?,6 voting last year. In 1954, 103 were in favor, 24 were against, and nine ballots were challenged. This year marked the first time Warm Springs farmers voted In their own community, but atten tion was distracted by the centen nial celebration of the treaty of 1855 being held there, and only two votes, both affirmative, were cast. A breakdown by communities shows 55 for and 19 against for a total of 74 votes in the Madras community; seven in favor of and two against for a total of nine in the Ashwood community; and 40 affirmative and eight negative, to taling 48, in Oliver community voting. surprise Douglas much, either. A Truman if he could be nominated. House judiciary subcommittee ac- If not, FDR would take Douglas. tuaUy was named in 1953 to study When the letter finally was pub- an impcuchment resolution drawn llished Douglas appeared to have against Douglas after he had been the actual first choice. He granted a last minute stay to Julius and Ethel Rosenberg, the Communist atom spies. Douglas is far and away Wash ington's least conforming big time official. He recently was divorced to many a second beautiful wom an. In his 16 years on the bench, Douglas has made speeches as the spirit moved him before groups and on subjects usually considered out of bounds for a member of the Supreme Court. His audiences have 'ranged from CIO national conventions to the student body of Iran's University of Teheran. Moreover, Douglas climbs moun tains, crosses deserts, visits other far places and writes books. His books are not on points of law but upon the social and political as pects of the peoples and areas he visits. FDR named Douglas to the high court In 1939 and the former presi dent would be pleased with his man's record. He is a New Dealer with a solid reputation among leaders of organized labor and left of-center elements which made the New Deal tick. He would be hard for the conservative South to swal low as a presidential nominee, but, then, so was Adlai Stevenson. Might Have Been President Douglas might have been presi dent long since, but for a fast thinking Missourian. To the 19-14 Democratic national convention FDR wrote a famous letter de signed to help prevent renomina tion of Henry A. Wallace as vice president. The letter was addressed and delivered to Democratic na tional committee Chairman Robert E. Hannegan. of St. Louis. It named two individuals FDR would consider satisfactory as running mates. Hannegan passed the word that the President wanted Harry S. PAOING DIOGENES NORWELL, Mass. (UP) If Diogenes is in town, he might do well to stop in and cast his lan tern on Thomas Barstow of Nor- well. Barstow, chairman of the town board of selectmen, thought a $1,000 pay increase voted him and the chairman of the board of assessors was far too much. Ac cordingly, Barstow moved that the increase be disapproved. It was. STEADY WORK ELLSWORTH, Mich. (UP) Tra cy E. (Ben) Boss, 76 is serving his 47th term as treasurer of Banks Township.

Douglas grew up in the state of Washington. West em informality still marks him. He answers up easily to his nick name. Bill. No Longer Court Baby It comes as a shock to old tim ers to realize that Douglas no longer is the court baby. lie was only 41 when FDR put him up there. But Associate Justice Tom C. Clark is a year younger. Doug las will be 57 when the court re convenes next autumn. There Is no shortage of Democratic aspirants for the 1956 presidential nomina tion and it is hardly possible that a situation could develop that would turn the party toward Doug las. But I960 could bo different. So far as Douglas is concerned, it had better be. The court baby of 1939 will be 62 years old in 1960 and that is the last chance he is likely to have at a prize which his per formance to date suggests he hopes to win. The traffic violator, Frank Wil son Ozier Jr., LaPine, was fined $10 and $4.50 court costs for driv ing without P.U.C. plates. Noxious Weeds Cut Farm Output LINCOLN, Neb. (UP) Weeds will cut income of Nebraska farm ers this year about $5,000,000 through lower production, accord ing to a noxious weed expert. The expert, D wight Lambert, head of the state division of noxi ous weeds, said there are about 450.000 acres of the hard-to-kill pests in Nebraska. lambert said two farms side by side upon which the same crops are grown, can show as much as a third or more difference in yield, if weeds are treated. The division he,ad said the aver age damage per farm in Nebraska yearly is $500 from all types of weeds, although noxious ones those that are perennial and have long roots are the most trouble some.
