Norblad, first of the Oregon dele gation to switch his vote to Will kie, went to New York after the convention and talked to the can didate in his private office. He said Willkie discussed northwest affairs at length, expressing a belief that Bonneville and Grand Coulee dams should be developed to full potentialities for public good.

Greeklmen Brought Ashore Astoria, Ore., July 13 (U.R) Twen ty-one Greek seamen who drifted for 48 hours in an open boat after the Greek steamer Hellenic Skip per exploded and sank, 140 miles southwest of Aberdeen, Wash., Wednesday, told today of their ex perience. No lives were lost in the ship dis aster but J. Mentzanias, second en gineer, was treated at Aberdeen hos pital for severe burns. The crew was rescued by fishermen late yes terday. Capt. Panais Danalls told how his ship caught fire when she was one day out of Grays Harbor. He said the fire apparently started from a spark in the generator room and spread through the en Bine room. The explosion occurred shortly after the fire started. The explosion rocked the ship with terrific force and put the radio out of order, preventing the crew from signaling for aid. The captain marshalled his crew into the 26 foot lifeboat with scant pro visions and water and stood off from the vessel which sank in 20 minutes after the fire broke out. They drifted for two days and nights, trying to head the small craft through fog and high seas to ward land with the aid of makeshift cars and sails made from bedsheets and blankets. They were without a compass. The night of the wreck the -crew sighted a freighter but frantic ef forts to attract attention failed. They used flashlights and fired pis tols in vain. After drifting for 48 hours, they were sighted yesterday by a fishing boat skippered by A. B. Chittester of Castle Rock, Wash. The fisher men towed them into the Columbia bar and coast guardsmen took them into Astoria-. San Francisco Men Killed in Accident Ontario, Ore., July 13 Fred J. Bodlnson and E. T.

Jehovah Group Held Captives Mcoresville, Ind., July 13 (P)- Some 50 persons who gathered last night for a Jehovah's Witnesses meeting remained today In the sec ond floor Odd Fellows hall here, held captive by a group of men who set up an American flag at the exit and demanded that they sa lute it before leaving. S. Ki Shuler of MooresviHe, i member of the sect who pledged allegiance to the flag in order to get out, said many of Its members refused to do so because they be lieved "the Bible teaches not to re vere any man-made thing." The crowd threw eggs and lem ons. An 8-year-old girl was cut on one shoulder when a window was broken. ' In the hall were men. women, and children, several of them babies.

Tom Clark, western representative of the antl-trust division, asserted the Justice department had never interfered with reasonable labor practices. Chris Roesen, labor attor ney, replied that recent decisions against labor were determined by an arbitrary definition. "Thurman Arnold, assistant at toney general, has read his own folk lore into the Sherman act," Boessen said. "His Interpretation of the act to include combinations of labor In restraint of trade is bb far from the original intention as it is possible to get. The word 'unreas onable" as used by Arnold in a list of five rules concerning labor prac tice has as many definitions as there are. men to interpret it." Clark claimed the laws were not made for one group and that "labor should not be privileged to erect a barrier between itself and any law." 1000 Soldiers Added at Stevens Hammond, Ore., July 13 (P) An unconfirmed report here today indi cated 1000 more soldiers soon will arrive at Fort Stevens, supplement ing nearly 600 already there, The new detachment would give the coast defense fortification the most men since World war days.
