In Memorial Day
Address Urges Unity
And Stability
"If th United State do not
mw Uke the leid in world af
talrs, the world b indeed lost."
Thee were the word! of Vice
Admiral Thomas L. Gatch dur
ing hie Memorial day talk from
the Marion county courthouse
rteps Monday morning.
Gatch pointed out that the
United States owes part of its
power, culture, decency and un-
selfishness to the rest of the
world. He believea that this
country must give the rest of the
world an example of stability.
Bit Fiddling Around
The Salem-reared admiral cri
ticized the people of the United
States for "fiddling around" with
trivial matters such as the time
of day, money and economic
laws. etc.. Instead of rating sta
bility and teamwork as most
Important.
Gatch emphasized his point by
saying "Fifty million ordinary
common-sense American men
and women have more gumption
in the long run than all the
pundits, bureaucrats, theorists,
dictators and the like that the
world has ever seen."
But, he warned, we must put
more of that gumption to work
in an effort to pull together as
a country, rather than debating
about the United States' own na
tional problems.
Must Strike Harder
The speaker thus Indicated
that the United States has a sys
tem which the whole world could
benefit by following, but that the
U. S. citizens must strive Just a
little bit harder to make that
system one worthy of a follow
ing. (Concluded on Far 8, Column 6)

Secrecy Bars to Limit
Probe of Atomic Affairs
Washington, May 30 Some
crecy bars may limit attempts of
to prove publicly that David E. Lilienthal is guilty df "Incredible
mismanagement" of atomic affairs. i
Hickenlooper has called for public hearings by the senste-house
atomic committee, beginning
Wednesday. He said he is "pre
pared to produce the proof" at
these hearings that Lilienthal
has been lax ln his duties and
should quit as chairman of the
atomic energy commission.
But some senators ssid pri

like the full controversy be

Levy of $326,094

calling for expenditure of $1,
658,355.29 and calling for a gen
eral tax levy of 5326,094.16 to
be submitted to the budget com
mittee Tuesday night
The amount recommended is
within the six percent limita
tion although it establishes a
new record high for municipal
expenditures. The current bud
get totaled $1,370,059.35.
The tax levy proposed is in
addition to other levies approv
ed by the voters including le
vies for the regular two-mill
street repair; two-mill fire tax;
one-mill park tax and a special
tax of 2Vt mills to allow for
shortening of firemen's hours.
No General Wage Hike
The budget, if approved, will
not provide any general wage
increases although there will be
pay boosts for police and some
other departments. The police
are scheduled to receive $20 a
month increases to equalize sal
aries paid to firemen and po
licemen.
Employes of the water depart
ment will be reduced slightly
because of the cost-of-living in
dex in vogue in that department.
The budget provides a num
ber of new positions. The new
personnel of 19 additional fire
men, headed by one battalion
chief and three captains, was
made possible by the 2hi mill
authorization.
10 More Policemen
The budget also provides for
10 additional policemen, a sec
ond janitor and two assistant
mechanics.
Major projects included for
the year in the budget are secur

City and state police and peni
tentiary guards joined in a web
like search for the criminals a
few minutes later, but had not
located them by noon Monday.
Pinson, who is serving a life
term for the murder of a state
policeman at The Dalles, was a
participant in the arson of a
prison flax shed in an unsuccess
ful prison break attempted last
November. He is known to be
exceedingly dangerous, and all
officers have been given orders
to approach him with extreme

Vanport Flood
Year Ago Today
Portland. May 30 (IP) A year
ago today the Columbia river de
stroyed Vanport.
The west dike let go on the
sunny Memorial Day afternoon
and the flood waters running
by 15 feet above Vanport's
streets surged ln and crushed
the war-built city.
Two-story apartment buildings
were splinted. Automobiles were
abandoned. People scrambled
for safety and many swam to
floating roofs or to the remain
ing dikes that walled the low
lying mile-square area.
Only 14 of Vhc city's 18,500
residents were drowned. The
sheriff's office still carries a list
of seven missing, but it is as
sumed they just never bothered
to report their safety.
Some 3000 of the 5300 Vanport
families now live in Portland
housing projects. Some 800 left
the area. The rest either bought
or rented homes or are still liv
ing with friends and relatives.
The place where Vanport used
to be is now cleared. An auc
tion sale last month completed
the salvage.
The evacuees and survivors
of the victims have filed suit
against the housing authority
which operated Vanport asking
more than $1,000,000 in damages
mostly for loss of possessions.
