Legal Opinion on
Gervais Petition
In a memorandum rendered
by District Attorney Miller B.
Hayden Friday to the county
court explanation is given of
the terms of a statute under
which petition to the court was
recently filed asking for change
and improvement of water
courses in an' area lying south
east of Gervais. County Judge
Grant Murphy stated that to his
knowledge the statute had never
been invoked in this county be
fore and some legal clarifica
tion of its terms were needed.
The memorandum states that
it is essential first to ascertain
whether all the property affect
ed is described in the petition
and if the owners' names are
given. It must also be deter
mined whether 60 percent of
the land owners affected have
signed the petitions and it is
suggested that the petition be
referred to the county surveyor,
assessor and recorder for check
ing. When the necessary informa
tion is received then the court
should make it3 findings, either
negative or affirmative, and if
afifrmative it should order a
survey. After report of the sur
veyor, a hearing is to be called
at which affirmative showing
or protests can be made. If the
court finds the improvements
should be made the surveyor is
directed to do the work, he in
turn to report on the costs which
are sprad by the assessor on the
rolls against the respective
properties improved and collect
ed like other taxes. Thereafter
it will be the duty of one mem
ber of the county court to each
fall examine the improvements
and if further maintenance is
needed to direct the land own
ers involved to make the im
provement. If it is not done
the court will order the work
done and assess the costs against
the property affected.

When he heard the judgment.
Lisak shook his fist at the court
and shouted in a high-pitched
voice: "I will die for Croatia!
Long live the independent state
of Croatia!" .
Stepinac, whose arrest was an
nounced by Tito's government
Sept. 18 following a long series
of Yugoslav press attacks on him
and the Catholic church, implied
during the proceedings that he
believed he was not being given
a fair trial.
In an impassioned speech he
told the court that "when there
is peace when it is possible to
publish documents and when
each can speak without any fear,
there will be none who will say
a word against my archbish
opric." He insisted throughout
that "my conscience is clear."
(In Rome, Pope Pius XII de
cried the trial as "most sad" and
denied he had ever approved
forced conversions. Vatican
sources, charging the arrest had
come after all Catholic pastors
in Yugoslavia had read from
their pulpits a letter from the
archbishop insisting upon reli
gious freedoms, said that dur
ing the war the prelate actually
protested to Pavelic against the
excesses of the Croatian re
gime.) When a door blew shut James
Driscoll, age 3, of 3995 Cherry
avenue, received a smashed fin

office by the first aid car.

Rather, the council noted that
"it would appear that revision
and a more studied application
of these laws should be made
to more equitably apply same
where special and particularly
critical conditions exist."
Further commenting on the
regulatory laws of the CPA the
resolution stated: "This council
believes that all civic groups of
whatever fabric should be the
first to ioin forces with the vet
erans' organizations in uphold
ing the orderly process of law
in the suppression of that con
struction not authorized by the
CPA, such as night clubs and
other non-essential building."
Acceptance of the resolution
by the Federated Veterans'
council followed the reading of
the resolution passed earlier in
the month by the Grants Pass
Builders' group and an investi
gation of the situation in that
city which revealed that neither
Uie VFW nor the American Le
gion was actively supporting the
move. A further check with
Nelson English of the Portland
CPA office showed no veterans
of World War II to be involved
in the 18 violations of the CPA
regulatory laws in Grants Pass.

The Danubian proposal, which
emerged from one of the tough
est fights of the entire confer
ence and which U. S. Senator
Arthur H. Vandenberg (R.,
Mich.) declared was indispensa
ble to the economic health and
peace of central Europe, pro
vides that the river, its naviga
ble tributaries and connecting
canals must be opened "on
terms of entire equality to the
nationals, vessels of commerce
and goods of all states."
It requires that, six months
after the Romanian treaty goes
into effect, the eight Danubian
states and the Big Four get to
gether in conference to estab
lish the river's "new interna
tional regime."
The conferees approved claus
es limiting the Romanian army
to 125,0(10 men; the navy to 5000
men and 15.000 tons of shipping
and air force ot 150 planes and
8000 men.
Mr, Siassen
Well Received
(By the Associated Press)
. Former Governor Harold E.
Stassen of Minnesota, speaking
before more than 6000 persons
in Seattle's civic auditorium last
night, declared that the repub
lican parly must adopt a new
labor policy which must not be
anti-labor but must "spring gen
uinely from safeguarding and
developing of the rights of in
dividual workmen inlhe factory
and shop."
Assailing the present adminis
trations' "bungling and incpt
ness" which he said "has caused
a minimum of five billion dol
lar loss in the standard of liv
ing of the American people in
1946," Stassen advocated a "ne
gotiating period fixed by gov
ernment during which either
strike or lockout would be un
lawful." The Minncsotan drew lengthy
applause with the assertion that
persons following "the line of
any other nation to the exclu
sion and harm of our own na
tions whether that other line
be communistic, imperialistic or
fascist serves neither mankind
nor his country, and deserves
neither citizenship nor public
office nor civic leadership."
Stassen strongly praised the
'party's senatorial candidate,
Harry P. Cain of Tacoma, and
Homer Jones, first district can
didate for congress, as typical
of the "unusually able, progres
sive republican candidates in
the field this year, throughout
this slate and the nation."

"The Ice Man Cometh," received
universal kudos this morning
from drama critics who previ
ously had mostly been luke

New Weapon
Materializing
Chicago, Oct. 11 U.R Secre
tary of War Robert P. Patterson
said today a guided missile with
a range far greater than the
German long-range rockets is a
probability in a matter of
months.
He made his disclosure in a
speech before the American
Federation of Labor's 65th con
vention.
'If war should come again,"
Patterson said, "we may be cer
tain that in speed, range and
power of weapons it will make
the war just finished look like
a fight with old-time muzzle
loaders."
He denied that the United
Slates is "arming to the teeth"
and said that the army and navy
budgets for actual defense pur
poses totaled only $10,000,000,
000. Other points in his speech:
1. There is no "ray of truth"
in talk that the army desires to
take command of the civilian
economy.
2. Both Gen. Dwight D. Eis
enhower, army chief of staff,
and Gen. Douglas MacArthur
have advocated civilian control
of industrial mobilization in
time of war "for the last 15
years."

per hour and kept it aloft for 11
minutes with special devices
which slowed its descent.
The warhead carried cameras
and various instruments, in
cluding improved geiger count

ta. These instruments were in
stalled under the direction of
the naval research laboratory,

Initial tests were made with
new devices which ejected at se
lected points in the missile's
downward trajectory. These
were designed to slow down its
velocity and protect the instru
ments. Col. Harold R. Turner, com
manding officer, said it was too
early to determine whether
these experiments were com
pletely successful, but said pre
liminary information indicated
at least partial success.

Jobs Secured by
Crippled People
That employers are showing
fullest cooperation in connec
tion with efforts to find places
on I heir payrolls for the phy
sically handicapped, was the
statement issued Thursday at the
U. S. employment service where
the program is centered for this
part of the valley. "Various or
ganizations are checking
through their plants to deter
mine where those with certain
degrees of disability may be
employed," said Carlton Grei
der, veterans councillor. He ad
ded that there were still a num
ber of men available for speci
fic jobs, positions they can
hold with equal facility with
those who are not handicapped.
It was pointed out that in
many instances the physically
handicapped ofter more than
make up for their disability by
reason of their perseverance and
tendency to stick with the job.
In some instances manufac
turers are rearranging their ma
chinery or their benches in or
der to make matters more con
venient for those who have
been crippled, especially in the
war.
