Final Concert
At High School
The third and final concert of
the season for the instrumental
department of Salem high
school, featuring 130 young
musicians, will be presented
Wednesday night at 8 o'clock
in the auditorium. The "A" and
"B" bands will give their prin
cipal program at that time, fea
turing music that will be play
ed during the state music con
tests. Deryl Peters, trombonist, a
sophomore, who as a ninth
grader last year was the only
first division trombone winner
in the national regional contest
at Eugene, will play "Thoughts
of Love" by Pryor.
The first half of the program
will be given by the "B" band
of 50 musicians. This organiza
tion will play for "comment"
only at this year's state contest
since rules prohibit more than
one band playing for a rating
from each school.
The 80 piece "A" band will
take over the second half of the
concert. Their featured number
will be "Die Fledermaus" by
Strauss, rated as one of the most
difficult band compositions on
the 1947 contest list.

Wallace
(Continued from Page 1)
Democratic conferees included
Sen. Scott Lucas (D., 111.) par.
ty whip, and Sens. Brien McMa
hon (Conn.) Walter F. George
(Ga.) and John L. McClellan,
(Ark.)
White House Press Secretary
Charles G. Ross was asked
whether this government would
notify the British government
that Wallace was speaking only
as a private citizen.
As Private Citizen
"It is an obvious fact, is it not.
that Mr. Wallace is speaking as
a private citizen," Ross replied.
Tiie White House comment
was made as the senate prepared
to resume debate on the $400,-
000,000 aid program with hope
of a final vote Thursday.
Some senators believe a presi
dential crackdown is called for
by Wallace's outspoken opposi
tion to the program, particularly
in his British speeches this
week. There also have been sug
gestions of prosecution under the
Logan act, a seldom-invoked
statute forbidding a private citi
ben to advise or assist a foreign
government in opposing U, S.
foreign policy.
Should Be Ignored
But Sen. Walter F. George (D.,
Ga.) took the opposite view. He
suggested that Wallace be ig
nored, rather than prosecuted,
lest he become a "martyr."
Ross said the White House had
taken no official notice of Wal
lace's statements. But he de
clined to prophesy when asked
whether this would apply to the
future.
Ross also said that to his
knowledge no appeal by a mem
ber of the congress had , been
made directly either to the presi.
dent or the While House seek
ing a presidential rebuke of Wal
lace. George, a member of the sen
ate foreign relations committee,
said the former vice president
was making a "spectacle" of.
himself with his speeches in Brit
ain attacking U. S. foreign pol
icy. The senator said he op.
posed either prosecution of Wal
lace under the Logan act or a
verbal spankint by President
Truman.
"His own course of conduct is
his severest criticism," George
told a reporter. "Even people
who sympathize with his views
will not approve the rather vul
gar display and spectacle he is
malting."
The "Wallace affair" prom
ised to boil over again on the
senate floor today as the senate
resumed debate on the $400.000,.
000 Greek-Turkish aid program,
which Wallace vigorously op
posed. There was talk of hold
ing a night session tomorrow
with hope of obtaining a final
vote Thursday.
