Seattle Hears
2 Candidates
(Br U4 AmwIiIM PrMl
The democratic vice presiden
tial nominee and the third party
candidate for president took
their case to Pugct Sound vot
ers Saturday niRht.
Senator Berkley told a Seat
tle audience that "the electric
power lobby is now in all of its
glory in Washincton."
In Tacoma. Henry Wallace
denounced America's policy
makers as "cynical" and "deceit
ful." Berkley attacked what he
called power, real estate and in
dustrial lobbies. He said if the
republicans win the election
the federal government would
place a "dead hand" on the Pa
cific northwest's aspirations.
He declared the power lob
by "is back along with the lobby
of the National Association of
Manufacturers . . . which takes
much of the credit for some of
the most repressive labor lesis
lation in American history."
Wallace likened the U.S. for
eign policy to that of Hitler's. Ho
said America's policy really
comes out of "schemes born of
the fear of peace" and "dreams
of world conquest."
The progressive party nom
inee said the policy-makers have
not been frank with the people.
"Instead," he contended, "they
found a nalt on which to hang
their lines Russia."

Valley project within the next
four years was predicted by

2 Boys Beaten
By Older Youths
A possible resurgence of il
legal secret school society ac
tivity in Salem was indicated
Monday in a police report cover
ing the beating of two 14-year-olds
by a gang of older youths
operating under cover of dark
ness. The two boys who were
beaten by the gang were identi
fied as Donald Lindburg, 1465
North 19th. and Gary Gortman,
2050 Market. They were jumped
by six 17 or 18-year olds when
they got off a bus after attend
ing a movie.
The attackers told the young
sters they had been sent by the
secret society to beat them up.
Police who questioned the two
boys said the cowardly assaults
were "no doubt the work of se
cret societies."
A cut on the lip of the Gort
man boy required seven stitches
to close, while the Lindburg
youth was severely beaten.
Gurnee Flesher. vice principal
of Salem high school, discount
ed the secret society problem in
the beating. He said the names
of the youths who were in the
gang were known both to high
school authorities and police.
"This time, at least there was
no secret society problem in
volved. What will happen to
the boys in the case before po
lice is up to the parents. They
may or may not sign com
plaints," Flesher said.

CIO Seeks to
End Ship Strike
San Francisco, Oct. 11 W
A CIO national official said to
day he will meet with water
front employers "sometime this
week" to discuss the west coast's
maritime strike, now in Its 40th
day.
Allan Haywood, director of
CIO organizing, said he would
talk with employers on "an in
dividual basis." Before the
crippling strike started the mar
itime unions had negotiated
with waterfront and shipown
ers' associations. Haywood is
here with R. J. Thomas, assistant
director of CIO organizing.
Haywood conferred yesterday
with Harry Brdiges. president
of the striking CIO Longshore
men's union, and then said: "It
is too premature to announce
anything yet."
President Frank Foisie of the
Waterfront Employers associa
tion and George Killlon, head of
American President Lines,
meanwhile were in the east
on missions involving the strike,
some sources said.
There was no confirmed prog
ress toward a settlement, how
ever. The deadlock began in a wage
dispute. Maritime unions sought
a 15-cent raise, to S1.R2 an hour,
and employers offered and then
withdrew an offer of 10 cents.

Dewey Silent
On Vinson Plan
En Route with Dewey to
Pittsburgh, Oct. 11 UP Gov.
Thomas E. Dewey barnstormed
across Pennsylvania today, hold
ing in reserve a possible public
blast at President Truman's han
dling of the Vinson Incident.
The republican presidential
nominee let Senator Arthur
Vandenberg (R., Mich.) put into
words what Dewey himself ap
parently would like to have said
openly but decided not to do
because of Its world effect.
Vandenberg declared In a
New York City speech last night
that Mr. Truman's abandoned
plan to send Chief Justice Vin
son to Moscow for personal ne
gotiations with Premier Stalin
involved a "narrow escape"
from singlehanded action that
could have crippled United Na
tions handling of the Berlin
crisis.
The attitude among the re
publicans evidently shared by
Dewey was that Mr. Truman
had made a desperate blunder
that might have had tragic ef
fects around the world.
While that seemed to be the
republican answer for the time
being, Dewey was known to
have in mind the possibility of
criticizing the Vinson incident if
he feels world developments
warrant such action later.
