Pearl Harbor Probe Asked Washington, Aug. 17 UP) Chairman Walsh (D., Mass.) of the senate naval affairs commit tee asked the navy today for the files on its investigation of the Pearl Harbor disaster. "With the war in Japan end ed, the explanation of military expediency, which congress agreed to be desirable while the war was in progress, cannot be seriously urged as reason for now keeping the matter secret," he wrote Secretary of the Navy Forrestal. . Walsh's letter followed by two days a demand by Senator Ferguson (R., Mich.) for imme diate court martial trials of Rear Admiral Husband E. Kim mel and Maj. Gen. Walter Short, naval and military commanders respectively, at the Hawaiian base when the Japanese sprang their surprise attack December 7, 1941. Ferguson Is author of legis lation, approved by congress, extending the statute of limita tions in the case until six months after the end of the war. In addition to copies of the department's investigation files, Walsh asked Forrestal for his comments and recommendations regarding release of that infor mation to the public. "When congress reconvenes," Walsh said, "there is certain to be a strong demand from mem bers of congress for information." New Airplane Better Than B-29 Washington. Aug. 17 Wl Gen. H. H. Arnold disclosed today the U.S. air forces have a new plane "considerably better" than the B-29 superfortresses. The new plane, he said, is cap able of ranging over all East Asia from western Pacific bases. The chief of the army air forc es gave no details of tne new craft except that it has speed the same or possibly greater than the B-29. He recalled that a B-29 had recently flown from Guam to Washington, a distance of 9000 miles, in 36 hpurs. While using the Asiatic area as an example of how the new plane can operate, Arnold told a news conference that reporters could "use your own imagina tion" on its possibilities in the Atlantic area. At the same time he disclosed that he plans soon to step out as head of the AAF, explaining that he is "getting to be an old man." As newsmen left the con ference room he told them he probably would not have many more news sessions. Looking to future develop ments in aerial weapons, Arnold said the development of the atomic bomb, better V-bombs, and the new long range planes presage "a Buck Rogers con ception of war." To a direct question as to whether the new long range plane is the recently announced B-32, Arnold emphasized that he was talking about a new plane. He declared that the age of "Buck Rogers warfare" is not far away and that the time is coming when there won't be any crews in bombing planes. "It's coming as sure as shoot ing," he said, adding that the guided missies will attain from Capital Journal, Salem, Ore., Friday, August 17, 19459 jet devices speeds at which it will be difficult to knock them down. Defensive weapons, he said, must be equally as efficient." The U.S. must have bases in the Pacific so that it can use the new weapons, he said, "so we won't have to worry about that direction." He added that the "same rules" apply to the Atlantic. Drove Over Six Miles An Hour-Arrested Portland, Aug. 17 UP) Mo torists irked by the 35-mile-an-hour speed limit should take in terest in 1865 traffic regulations. Policeman A. L. Bigelow, cleaning out a desk drawer, found a list of arrests showing that in 1865 John Bills was fined for driving his span of horses at more than six miles an hour. Only a year later, two Port land men were arrested on a libel charge. In a card printed in the Daily Oregonian, they'd called B. Smith a "villian."

Bronze Star Awarded The Dalles Sergeant Kunming, China, Aug. 17 U.R) For meritorious service on air rescue missions, T4 Charles W. Wesley, The Dalles, Ore., has been awarded a Bronze Star medal by Major General H. S. Aurand, commanding general, services of supply, China theater. While on duty at a small first aid stations on the Stilwell road where he took care of mi nor injuries to convoy drivers, Wesley left his station to res cue fliers forced down by bad weather within a 100-mile ra dius. "In . some instances," he re called, "the roads were practi cally impassable We would go about two-thirds of the-way in truck or jeep, and then we'd have to go the rest of the way on foot or by mule cart." "On one mission we saved 11 people largely through the kind help of local Chinese, who pitched in and gave us a hand. "The French missionaries, too, have been very coopera tive, doing everything they could to aid- our wounded."

Plant Clearance Order of Day Washington, Aug. 17 (U.R) Government agencies are fol lowing up their mass war con tract cancellations with a pro gram for speedy clearance of plants so that industry can get tooled up and stocked up with out delay for peacetime pro duction, it was learned today. A high-ranking war produc tion board official said that if any reconverting Industry is impeded by delays in plant clearance by the government, the WPB is ready to "nudge" the offending agency. So far the WPB has had only a very few complaints con cerning removal of government equipment and inventories from former war plants. The official said that both the army and navy have done a "fairly ade quate job" on plant clearances, but that the army air forces have done an especially out standing job. Plant clearance is closely tied in with contract settle ment. Frequently, contractors desire government -owned equipment and some of the ma tennis partly finished or scrap in their plants when a contract Is cancelled. In these cases, the contractors prefer to have such inventories left on their premises. Contract settle ments take this in consideration. New Courthouse Still Dormant With the country Just enter ing' the postwar era, County Judge Grant Murphy stated Fri day that the new courthouse pro ject slated for accomplishment some time in that era will still lie dormant until the time seems propitious to bring it up again. The court now has two levies of $75,000 each, or what taxes have been collected against I CUn nnn in ih Huffln has in. V iuv,uuu ' O v" ward construction of the pro posed new building, admittedly only a large sized drop in the bucket toward the total that will be needed. Under an or der of the court these levies are to run for 10 years, or until such time previous to that that other steps may be taken for acquiring the necessary money. As it stands now, stated Judge Murphy, it would be necessary for the people of the county to vote the necessary funds In addition to what the accumula tion from the $75,000 a year levies might amount to when it is decided to build. He said, also, that there's the possibility of the federal government, in some federal works program to come up later, offering an at tractive proposition in the line of additional finances which might make toward a bigger and better courthouse. As the situation stands now the judge indicated that thera will be a number of hurdles to surmount and no immediate action toward that end Is anticipated. Order of dismissal in State vi.

West Salem Bible Institute Will be Ready by September West Salem, Aug. 17 Formation of the new Salem Bible institute and academy is being announced this week by the founders, who have completed details for the opening of the fall term at this Christian institu-- tion September 17. Origin of the school may be credited to two separate groups who felt the need of Christian academy and Bible school in this section of the Willamette valley and have since early spring com bined their efforts to formu late the basic structure of an organization for such a school. Salem was selected by the governing board as the most de sirable site for the new school not only due to its central loca- cation but also for many other advantages its offers such as part time employment for the students at its canneries and other industries, the 'unlimited opportunity for research and expansion, offered by the state library; and other privileges common to a capital city. In order to permit immedi ate establishment of the school the facilities of the West Salem Mennonite church's three story educational unit will be used this year for educational in struction. Due to the nature of the school and its anticipated expansion the board of trustees proposes to begin work immedi ately to secure a permanent site and provide buildings for the school for next year. This tern porary home in West Salem, a 1125 Elm street, will house the Bible school, providing two year Bible training courses on a col legiate level for those who have completed high school; and the Christian academy, which will be an interdenominational in stitution offering four years of standard high school courses in strict accord with the state de partment of education require ments, supplemented by instruc tion in the basic fundamentals of the Bible on a high school level. Some evening classes in Bible will be included in the school's program. The main building of the pres ent school will provide seven or eight classroms, a library and study hall and administra tion offices. The daily chapel in the main auditorium will be used for spiritual activities of the day school. A large first class gymnasium will be avail able as well as fully equipped home economics and industrial arts departments, where high school students may obtain training the equivalent of voca tional schools. This, the first school of its kind in the community, will de rive its financial support from two sources, the tuition fees estimated to cover one-half the operational costs and the ad ditional financial needs will be met by gifts and donation by friends of the school who are interested in this type of in stitution. The 1945-46 catalogues and applications for admission are being distributed in prepara-1 tion for registration on Satur- i day, September 15. The school will open Sunday, September 16, with the actual beginning of classes scheduled for Mon day, September 17. To date the following staff members have been selected: John W. Edluer. A B .
