$8,500 Award
o Albert Suko
An 88,500 award to Albert Suko,
seriously injured in his Portland
home -three years ago when a
30,000-gallon water tank burst on
top of the adjacent Northwestern
Ice Sc Cold Storage company build
ing, was upheld today by the state
supreme court
The verdict of the Multnomah
circuit court was against the cold
storage company, which had leased
the property from the E. Henry
Wemme endowment fund. The fund
was absolved of all blame.
Suko, whose home was damaged,
was disabled when the flood or
water and the shattered tank fell
on his home.
The high court's decision, by
Justice Rand and upholding Circuit
Judge T. E. J. Duffy, held that
the company was negligent, since
no work had been done on the tank
since it was built in 1924.
The court reversed three cases,
Including the $5030 damage verdict
in favor of W. S. Bennett, Injured

the late Chicago merchant, Levi

bomb, it was announced today. His
secretary died with him.
The 35-year-old earl, born Charles

a lot of high adventure around the
world. At 17 he was an apprentice
on a windjammer during a round
the-world cruise, He worked as
ranch hand In Australia and once
was a second lieutenant of the Scots
Guards.
From the de Jure point of view
this was an Incongruous arrange

been fully Justified. The fact is that
Hess was removed from the position
which could have made him Im
mediate successor to the fuehrer."
Hess was described as a man. who
in the vigor of his powers, perform
ed great service for the party but
was retiring by nature and sutler-

sleeplessness. It was felt In many
quarters that he lacked supreme
leadership.

to doubt the authenticity of the
reports.
It was acknowledged tnat tne
event was a great windfall for Brit

here to be exploited to tne utmost,

At a hearing before the civil aero

It was necessary for public con

Thlgpen, United Airlines Portland
district traffic manager, expressed
confidence today the civil aeronau

Salem and Eugene, Ore., and Bel
Ungham, Wash.
CAB examiners recommended
such service today but disapproved
service to Klamath Falls, Ore.
"The CAB as a rule accepts the
recommendation of its examiners,
Thigpen said. "We feel these will
be accepted. The CAB has been
denying applications which require
more equipment and add route
miles, and I presume that Is the rea
son the Klamath Falls request was
denied. It has been granting appll
cations which do not involve more
equipment or route miles, such as
those at Eugene, Salem and Bel

He said United would be ready
to Inaugurate service to Eugene and
Salem as soon as CAB's approval
is granted and the airports are ap
proved by the local Inspection
board.

For the first time since March 29, 1869, when Ladd &
Bush bank opened its doors to do business in Salem, there
was no one by the name of Bush today to look over the affairs
of the bank and see that they were

Today A. N. Bush, son of Asahel
Bush, founder of the institution,

Prom now on he will maintain his

Of Radio by
Government
St. Louis. May 13 (IP) Chairman
James Lawrence Ply of the federal
communications commission told the
National Association of Broadcast
ers today that "there Is no present
foreseeable emergency which would
result in the government's taking
over the broadcasting industry."
'The federal communications com
mission has no desire and no plans
to take over the nation's broadcast
ing system," he said.
"Neither has the defense com
munications board. Neither, so far
as I know; as any other government
agency."
Fly made his statement, he said,
"only In view of certain dire fore
bodings which have come recently
from monopollstlcally controlled
sources In the Industry."
These men," he said In a pre
pared address, "to divert attention
from the fact of monopolistic con
trol in their hands, conjure up in
sistently the bogey man of govern
ment operation." '
(The communications commission
recently issued an order, based on
an Investigation It made Into al
leged monopoly In the radio field,
which would make NBO give up one
of its two networks within 90 days
and Impose other restrictions on
network affiliations.
(Neville Miller, president of the
National Association of Broadcast
ers, said in commenting on the
order, that It was "usurpation of
power which has no Justification In
law and menaces the freedom of
the American system of broadcast
ing." William S. Paley, president
of Columbia Broadcasting system,
said the regulations struck a blow
"at freedom of the air.")
(The Mutual Broadcasting system
praised the order.)

British sources would not say
positively that these were put thera
by Hess' aerial pursuers. They said
that his 800-mlle flight was the vol
untary act of a rational man, show
ing that "the core of Germany was
rotten."
They declared that his was no
special mission that he brought no
peace terms, but still the British
were the beneficiaries of a great
propaganda windfall, if not actual
military help.
Opposed Russians
There was some speculation that
Hess was in disagreement on war
strategy or that he retained his ear
ly anti-communist ideas and op
posed closer German relations with
Soviet Russia.
The German version was that
Hess was a victim of hallucinations
and one of these was an undying
hope for restoration of friendship
between Germany and Britain and
that he might have reasoned that,
through personal sacrifice, he could
bring this about.
How Hess, now a prisoner of war
at some secret place, might advance
this concept of what the nazls call
ed his disordered mind was a factor
for the manipulation of British in
telligence, propaganda and states
manship.
Informed sources said tonight
that Hess' flight to Scotland "ob
viously entailed a high degree of
physical and moral courage." A leg
was injured when he balled out.
Fine Flying Job
Hess Is In a hospital bed and has
been equipped with army pajamas,"
an Informant said. "He is comforta
ble and, except for his slight leg
pain, he Is quite well.
He Is spending most of his tuna
resting, dozing, reading periodicals
and writing."
This source added that he was
getting the usual simple hospital
food.
Hess did a fine Job of flying for
one accused of hallucinations. He
reached Scotland from Augsburg,
Bavaria, under cover of darkness,
hunted for a place to set down his
fast Messerschmltt-110 and, falling
that, balled out while the plane
crashed In a streak of flying
wreckage.
A farmer, armed with a pitchfork,
found him beside the folds of his
parachute, with an injured leg and
took him In. Such an injury, inci
dentally .would have been a demerit
for one of Adolf Hitler's expert par
achute troopers.
The British minister of informa
tion, Alfred Duff Cooper, told a Ju
bilant luncheon meeting today, that
I can only say that his arrival here
shows the first breach in the nazl
party that has occurred since Hitler
murdered a huge bloc of his own
followers on June 30, 1933."
