Newspaper Page Text8 Capital Journal, Salem, De Gaulle Threatens to Leave Algiers Unless Demands Met Algiers, June 21 U.R A last-minute effort to solve the most serious crisis yet faced by the French committee of national lib eration started in private conversations today with some officials estimating that "there is a 50-50 , chance of success by tomorrow." The private conversations were undertaken after a short meeting of the committee this morning following a reported threat by Gen. Charles De Gaulle to leave North Africa unless his demands for army re forms arc accepted. De Gaulle presided at this morning's meeting and it was Stocks Decline To Oyer Point New York, June 21 OP) The stock market averages today made another descent to lowest levels since mid-day without unsettling sentiment to any noticeable extent or touching off important selling. Trends dropped at the start and. with the ticker tape halt ing frequently, declines of frac tions to more than a point ruled near the close. A few peace time favorites managed to hold their own but even these fail ed to make much progress. Transfers were around 750, 000 shares. Conspicuous on the down ward shift were U. S. Steel, Bethlehem,' Chrysler, General Motors, Santa Fe, Southern Pa cific, Southern Railway, Great Northern, U. S. Rubber, Mont gomery Ward, International Harvester, Wcstinghouse, Ana conda, Standard Oil (NJ), Radio Corp., Western Union, Eastman Kodak, Boeing and Texas com pany. Occasional gainers included American Telephone, Allied Chemical, International Nickel and American Smelting. Bonds were irregular. The preliminary closing Dow Jones averages: Industrial, 138.79, off 0.94; rail, 34.77, off n.44; utility, 20.10, off 0.13; 65 stocks 47.71, off 0.39. Sales were 714,540 shares, compared with 682,590 Friday. On the curb turnover was 181, 530 against 190,990 last Friday.

The watch, dropped by PFC Leo M. Schnicdcr, Jr., as he leaped ashore, was found in February by a marine captain who later turned it over lo a Rod Cross worker in a San Francisco hospital. The Red Cross worker, Vir ginia Bcnhnm, traced the watch from the manufacturer through the wholesaler distributor and jewelry firm finally to Schnei der's parents here. The watch, still in good shape, is being saved for its marine owner who has some unfinished business in the Pacific. Who Said a Duck Takes to Water? ' Pueblo, Colo. W Alex, a duck owned by Miss Winifred Wood, was hatched by a hen that dropped dead soon after. Then Alex got so large Miss Wood decided he should be in the city park lake. She launch ed him and he paddled toward the other ducks. Miss Wood started for her car, a half-block away, and as she opened the car door Alex flew in and settled himself on the seat. It seems that Alex Is a peculiar duck he didn't like the water, T e t blackouta throughout Mexico are reported to have been luccessful, Oregon, Monday, June 21, 1943 - said the discussion was "quite frank and quite bitter" but that both sides were willing to make another effort. Gen. Georges Catroux again will attempt to draw up a compromise and the committee will meet again to morrow. Authoritative sources said De Gaulle made known during in formal conversations that he intends to depart tantamount the resigning from the libera tion committee for either Bei rut, Syria, or Brazzaville, French Equatorial Africa, in the event that his demands are side tracked or rejected. (A London dispatch said that the American and British gov ernments, their patience tested by the prolonged political wran gling in Algiers, may form a con sortium to take over and hold trust French territory until a post-war government can be established in France.) (The dispatch said that it would not be surprising if the allies suggested to De Gaulle that his retirement would be the biggest contribution that he could make toward the re-conquest of France. A similar sug gestion might also be made to Gen. Henri Honore Giraud.) Court Restores (Continued from page 1) zen in 1927, and his citizenship was ordered cancelled In 1940 by the federal district court at San Francisco on the ground that he had concealed his com munist connection. Government Contention Solicitor General Charles Fahy, the government's spokes man, said the naturalization act required that an alien who ob tained citizenship be "attached to the principles of the consti tution" and be "well disposed to the good order and happiness of the United States." He added that the evidence established that in 1927 the communist party and Schneider man "believed in, advocated, and taught the overthrow of this government by force and violence. Willkie said Schneiderman had given "unimpeached testi mony" that he had never .be lieved in or advocated the use of forces or violence or dis believed in organized govern ment. He added that govern ment attorneys admitted that the constitution of the com munist party of America, adop ted in 1938, did not advocate force or violence. Circuit Court Reversed The federal district court at San Francisco held that Sch neiderman had obtained citizen ship illegally because he failed to reveal that during a five year probationary period he belonged to an organization ad vocating violent overthrow of the United States government. In upholding the cancellation, the federal circuit court at San Francisco said: "The trial court believed that appellant's (Schneiderman) tes timony as to his support of our constitution and allegiance to this country was incredible in view of his admission that he fully believed in and supported the principles of the communist party, and in view of the prin ciples of such party. He cannot say that the trial court's con clusions are clearly erroneous view of the substantial evi dence in the record before us."

Farmer Injured in Unusual Manner John Van Loh, 39, of route 3, recovered consciousness at Sa lem Deaconess hospital today for the first lime after being in jured in an unusual manner shortly after 1 o'clock Sunday afternoon. First aid men who attended the case reported that Mr. Van Loh was chasing a horse at his farm near Liberty. The horses collided with a rail, and the rail was hurled by the collision in such a way that it struck Mr. Van Loh across the face. After first aid had been given he was sent lo the hospital. H. W. Elgin, 1475 North Llb 6rly, received a severe knife cut on the first finger of the left hand Saturday evening and went lo first aid headquarters to have the wound dressed. How America Bombs the Axis (First In II serlr-s of si stones on the methods of attark used by bombers of the U, s. Army Atr Forces, ss explained by Instructors at the world's largest school tor bombardiers.) AAF Bombardier School, Midland, Tex. When you read that U.S. bombers have blasted another German industrial cen ter, you can be pretty sure it happened something like this: The biggest planes, four-motored Flying Fortresses or Lib erators came over at an altitude between 25.000 and 35.000 feet. Each formation covered a space about the shape of the area it was to bomb, but somewhat larger. The planes were prob ably "staggered," with no two of them flying exactly abreast of each other or at the same precise level. Even though one particular factory might have been the prime objective, each bombar dier did not try to lay his "eggs" right down the smoke slack. The leading plane aimed for the center of the target, and the others dropped their bombs in co-ordination. Big Bombers Need Altitude Combat has proved it advis able that the big bombers, com paratively slow and offering large targets, must seek high altitudes where anti-aircraft fire and enemy fighters present least danger. For this reason, as well as because of their range and load-carrying capacity, they are used against Industrial in stallations, docks and large ships. They seldom attack hos tile ground forces. Fighters cannot escort the heavy bombers on long-range missions. So the Liberators and Fortresses operate In large num bers and in the staggered or stepped-up formations for pro tection as well as for maximum effectiveness. From whatever direction an enemy plant ap pears, the gunners of many Meat Ceiling Sharply Cut Seattle, June 21 lP) Sharp reductions of ceiling prices ef fective today, on all grades of meat in Oregon and Washing ton were announced today by the office of price administra tion through the office of war information. The new prices, a result of price roll-backs to producers which went Into effect last Monday, will average three cents per pound less to the consum ers. Seattle packing houses, which have awaited government clar ification of government orders since last week before they con tinued production of the meat, Saturday received forms and regulations from the defense supplies corporation. J. D. Paul, president of Frye Packing com pany, one of the few companies operating on a curtailed basis, said the orders were "clear as a London fog," however. Packers previously Md said they would await the forms and regulations to determine wheth er they would, resume process ing the meat. Little meat was available at Seattle markets last Saturday. Washington, June 21 (P) An average, 3-cent pound reduc tion in the retail price of most meats went into effect today the second of three price roll backs undertaken by the office of price administration (OPA) through payments of subsidies. The cutback affects all meat except cured and processed pork, but those cuts will come under the subsidy plan July 5. The new meat prices follow ed a ten per cent reduction in butler prices earlier this month. A similar reduction is scheduled for coffee prices, but an effec tive date has not yet been set. Grower Reports Excellent Berries Silverton, June 21 Willard Benson, prominent hills straw berry grower, was a Silverton visitor Sunday. He reported the first picking in his fields to be gin today with the berries of excellent quality but the latest for harvesting since he began to raise strawberries in the Sil verton hills. This it attributed to the cool weather and much rain. Warmer weather is needed for the best in the yield of the hills berries which are selling for a top all-time price. Pickers are still needed and are being offered transportation from Silverton and other nearby sections. Markets Briefed fBy the United Press) Stocks lower. Bonds lower. Curb easy.

Cupper, 61, former state engineer and active in state and civic affairs for many years, died Sunday at Laramie, Wyo., where be was taken from a train after a fainting spell while re- turning home from a three weeks business trip to Washing ton, D.C. in the interest of the Jefferson county reclamation project. He had made a short stopover at Denver, Colo., ap. parently becoming ill after leav. ing that city. At the time of his death he was serving on the state board of engineer exam iners and had recently been re- appointed to the board. Cupper was the son of Henry A. and Cordelia Harriett Cup per and was born at Hepner Dec. - 8, 1882, attending the Grant county schools, the Bi shop Scott academy (Hill mili tary academy) In Portland and graduating from Oregon State college in 1904 with a bachelor of science degree in civil en Dewey Says Regime Fails Columbus, O., June 21 (U.R- State governments must provide working programs for solution of the nation's food problems because the administration has failed. Gov. Thomas . Dewey of New York said today in warning of a meat shortage jeopardizing the nation's "obli gallon to feed the starving sur vivors of a wrecked world." ' "No purpose would be served in analyzing the Incredible de ficiencics of the national gov ernment in its 10-year campaign to restrict food production in the United States," the republi can governor told the 35th an nual governors conference. "We are just now reaping some of the harvest of these policies," he said. "But as a sardonic final touch, we now find that out of the genius of the OPA there was developed a theory that it would be a good idea to repeal the natural law of economics that corn and hog prices are tied together." The result, he said, was ceiling price on corn of $1,05 at Chicago while the farmer got $1.45 for the same corn "right on the farm, just by throwing it over the fence to his pigs." The meat ' situation now, Dewey said, is a "jumble of paradoxes" because there actu ally is a livestock population so vast that we never can support it. "Right now in this country our meat animals are eating into the precious food reserves which must be Increased if we are even to begin saving the undernourished people of a res cued Europe," he said. "There can be only one result of this," he continued. "Human beings will inevitably push the pig away from the trough, to eat his corn themselves. Live stock will be reduced, and its slaughter will for a time give us the illusion of a continuing meat supply. "I think the illusion may last until election day next year. But then will come the time when we will really know what a meat shortage means." fall at definite intervals so they will strike the ground at set distances apart. If the aim is perfect the string will fall across the target. Only the leading bombardier sights the course. If all the bom bardiers sighted the course, a slight error might cause neigh boring planes to collide. If the leading bombardier is a little off in his calculations as to course, the bombs from a following plane will strike the point at which he aimed.
