W.OO United States Outside Oregon: Monthly, $.60: 6 Months, $3.60; Year, $7.20 American and Russian Atomic Plans The chief difference between the Baruch and Gromyko rilans for control of atomic enersry is the difference enforcement. Both plans agree in the destruction of existing bombs, but the American propose to yield the atomic secrets and destroy their bombs only after international control is assured and put into force by ratification of half the nations of the world. The Russian plan would forbid use and pro duction of atomic weapons, provide for their destruction three months after the world convention is ratified and reauire each signatory nation within six months after en actment to provide its own legislation providing penalties for violators, with international controls emDracing a sys tern of sanctions aeainst unlawful use. The Baruch plan would require international control as mired before atomic secrets were yielded and bombs de- stroyed while the Gromyko proposal takes the control out of .American hands by international convention. The Unit ed States demands that each of the Big Five foreswear its rights under the United Nations charter to veto security action as far as atomic control is concerned while the Soviets maintain that the veto right must be preserved in all in. stances. Mr. Baruch said: "There must be no veto to protect those who violate their solemn agreements not to develop or use atomic energy for de structive purposes. The bomb does not wait upon debate. To delay may be to die. . . . Before a country is ready to relinquish any winning weapons, it must have more than words to reassure it. It must have a guarantee of safety, not only against the offenders in the atomic area, but against the Illegal users of other weapons bacteriological, biological, gas perhaps why not? against war itself." ' Restriction of the veto right of any member of the Big Five nations on the atomic issue would probably force the yielding of veto right on other weapons, which will be fought by suspicious Russia. But a war cannot be prevented as long as the veto power privilege of any nation can upset world peace and security. Hut the united btates wouio De foolish to destroy its weapons without guarantee that it will not be attacked. The Compromised Draft Bill The orolonged deadlock over the continuation of the selec- tive service law has been broken by a compromise that ex tends the draft law for nine months for all childless men in the 19 through 44 age brackets and top to bottom pay raises of 10 to 50 nercent for the armed forces. The 18 vear old youths escape service under the measure. The original house bill banned the induction of teen agcrs and provided for suspension of inductions until October 15 during which time the armed forces would try to me'et their requirements through voluntary enlistments. While the induction of men up to 44 is authorized in the compromised version, army officials have repeatedly stated that they have no intention of inducting men over 29, the top limit set in President Truman's recent proclamation. Fathers already in service will be discharged on application after August 1. A ceiling of 1,550,000 officers and men for the army is provided on July 1 and of 1,070,000 on July 1, 1947. Farm deferments are the only ones continued. It is estimated that 13,000 will be available for the draft In Spntemher in the 19 vear srroun and 9000 monthly after that time. Just why congressmen are so concerned over the teen agers as to risk the security or tne nation until the emergency is over and fulfill its foreign commitments is hard to understand. Uncertainty of their future during the long months of debate has been far worse on the youths than service in army or navy wouici nave neen.

Recollections j! ll ' 1 By Don Upjohn The virtually unanimous de cision which seems to have swept the country that the Louis-Conn tit-tat-toe exhibi tion was one of history's worst washouts because no blood was shed but a drop from one of the contender's eyelids, leads us to believe that the time is get ting ripe for some presidential candidate to run on a platform of bread and circusses and giving hack to the people gladiators, man eating lions, men for them to eat, and all of the right smart exciting times provided by the Caesars. It seems if there must be a contest to determine who is the world's most brutal abvs- smal Brute, folks now want it both brutal and abyssmal with none of this pussyfooting. Yea, it takes something more than a nosebleed to stir the pulses of folks nowadays, provided, of course, it is the other fellow who has the nosebleed. Yea, folks like blood, but they always seem to prefer to see the bright red stream flowing from the other guy's arteries. Clint Standish, Uncle Sam's special delivery messenger, seems to have worked up quite a' feu.1 between the state police and the postoffice department Novelties In the News (By the Associated Press) Spreading Out Philadelphia, June 21 UP) The local American Legion in stituted its first all-woman post last night, but the ladies took the oath In civvies. We thought about wearing our uniforms," said Margaret M. Schafer, post chairman, but for the sake of those who aren't the same size as they used to be, we decided on dresses." here. The other day Frank Zlnn, who is as good a garden er as he Is a mail carrier, brought to the postoffice a head of New York lettuce about foot through the belly and with leaver equally as wide. It just happened the same day Max Alford brought to the state po- lice office at the state house head of New York lettuce about a foot through the belly and with leaves equally as wide. In fact the heads looked like twin sisters. And shortly after Clint had seen Frank's lettuce at the postoffice he had a trip to make to the state police office and what should he see there but Frank's head of lettuce repos ing on Max's desk. "Hey," he said, "what you doing with Frank Zinn's head of lettuce up here?" he asked. At which Max exploded. Now both of the boys are accusing each other of plagarizing their lettuce heads and there's no telling how it s coming out. An FT & BA Problem Dallas A new wisdom tooth pushing through the lower rear gum In the mouth of Philip Day, 79, not only surprised the elder ly gentleman, but is causing him some concern. A dentist in the Dakotas where Day lived before moving to Dallas several years ago first advised him that something appeared to be em bedded on his lower jaw, but only recently did the tooth push through. Mr. Day s other teeth had long since been removed for false plates. Now the prob lem is, how can Mr. Day keep his lower plate from being lop sided without removing evi dence of the unusual phenom enon? Legal Lineup Superior, Wis., June 21 UP) City Attorney George Flynn needs a pair of nylon stock ings for official use. They are needed to satisfy claim by a woman who is suing the city for injuries to herself and a pair of nylons resulting from a fall on a sidewalk. Settlement of the claim Is routine, Flynn said. But he's faced with the Job of standing line for the nylons if he can find a nylon line.

Woodburn Theater Sold to Dakolan Woodburn W. H. Dussler, who has operated the Bungalow theater here since July 1, 1944, which he purchased from T. C. Poorman, has sold the theater to Peter J. Koppinger of New English, North Dakota, who will take over the management October 1. Included in the sale Is the business property on Hayes street which Dussler pur chased some time ago for a site for a new theater and also the Dussler home at Second and Hayes streets. I Moscow's counter to Amer ica's atomic energy proposals was so astounding zm to pre elude immediate response; in deed, it has been a moment for quick thinking but slow answer. Uncle Sam's offer to throw overboard the vast advantage which he holds through pos session of the atomic bomb secret was purely voluntary. It was meant to be for the bene fit of mankind. Thus it has been disconcerting to have the mouth of his gift-horse put un der the microscope. StMl, the Russian proposition calls for careful consideration. It's no good saying as one hears said that the Soviet move throws a monkey-wrench into the machinery. A motion is before the U.N. atomic en ergy commission and must be Ironed out. President Truman himself, while reaffirming the American policy, has said the matter will be negotiated and may lead to agreement. Difficult Road Ahead There is such divergence of view on fundamental points in the plans that diplomatic circles in Washington are wondering whether another controversy might develop among the great poweis. American officials, while indicating hope that the differences may be cleared up, foresee a long and difficult road ahead. Among the outstanding dif ferences in the two plans is one which seems to carry the Impli cation that Russia is entertain ing grave doubts, or let's say, is protecting herself against un toward contingencies. This has to dc with the American sug gestion that it would be willing to dispose of its atomic explo sives altogether after interna tional atomic control is created. Moscow, on the other hand, wants Uncle Sam's bombs de stroyed, and the manufacture of others stopped, before the in ternational machinery is work ing. In short, Moscow is playing safe by trying to render Amer ica atomically impotent right at the outset. Well, maybe that's a smart move to make, although it isn't particularly complimen tary to the motives of the Unit ed States, and it would seem to indicate suspicions which cer tainly can't make international relations among the Big Three and let none think that the suspicions have been entertain ed solely by Russia. It has been an epidemic which has account ed in major degrees for the dif ficulties in the U.N. security council deliberations and in the unhappy conferences of the Big Four foreign ministers. The Russian counter-proposal is lacking in what strikes many observers as being a vital ele ment. This Is any suggestion of what cooperation in world re habilitation Moscow Is prepared to offer in exchange for any such unprecedented concession as America is asked to make. After all, the United States does possess the secret of how to make atomic bombs, she has the equipment and scientific If T Baruch Presents Control Plan VP) Bernard M.
