7 Die in Navy
Plane Crash
Santa Monica, Calif., June IS
VP) Charred wreckage and a
tall fin painted with yellow
"XV to designate it ai an "old
crash" are all that remain today
of a navy transport plane which
carried seven men to their death
Monday night.
The RD4 navy version of the
DC3 crashed into the Santa
Monica mountains while trying
to land here in a heavy fog on
a flight from Moffett field, San
Francisco.
The airmen were naval re
servists from the naval air sta
tion at Memphis, Tenn., on the
west coast on a training mission.
A heavy fog prevented aerial
searchers from locating the still-
smoking plane until yesterday
afternoon. Rescuers reached the
scene and removed the burned
bodies with the aid of bulldoz
ers and rope.

eral larger, plywood and lumber
plants threatened yesterday by
flames that were whipped by a
stiff wind.

Budget Deficit
Now Assured
Washington, June 15 VP) A
budget deficit more than double
the $800,000,000 forecast by
President Truman now appear
in the making for fiscal 1949
when it ends June 30.
Some official said the sea
sonal spurt in income tax col
lections from quarterly pay
ments falling due today will
have to be impressive to hold
the deficit as low as $1,700,
000,000 or even $1,500,000,000
With the government heading
that deep into the red this year
after two consecutive years of
surplus there was some specu
lation over whether the presi
dent might take the occasion to
renew his January request for a
$4,000,000,000 tax increase.
The budget outlook has turn
ed worse since Mr. Truman ask
ed the tax increase to (1) over
come a deficit he estimated at
$873,000,000 for the new fiscal
year beginning July 1 (congres
sional staff estimators say this
will be tripled in actual prac
tice) and (2) to permit a sub
xtantial reduction in the $251,
600,000,000 federal debt.
For expiring fiscal 1949. ex
penditures have been holding
close to the pace of President
Truman's January estimate of
$40,180,000,000, which counted
on an 18 per cent increase over
fiscal 1948.
Millmen to Vote
On Wage Offer
Members of the millmen's
union in Salem will meet
Thursday night at Labor temple
to vote on an offer of the
Woodwork Employers associa
tion of a wage increase of 1 i
cents an hour.
The mill workers are request
ing an Increase of 17V4 cents
and it is anticipated the offer
here will be rejected as it was
in Portland where the vote was
402 to nothing against accept
ance. Several Salem shops are pav
ing the wage requested by the
millmen and are in operation
A news dispatch from Port
land was erroneous in stating
that the Hi-cent offer was
from the Portland employers. It
was from the state-wide asso
ciation instead.

Plutonium Most
Deadly Poison
Washington, June 15 uPi Plu
tonium is the "deadly material"
the Atomic Energy Commission
says must be guarded at Hanford,
Washington. Machinery to keep
it out of the air is one reason
why costs of a plant there have
exceeded estimates.
This was made clear today at
hearings by the aenate-house at
omic committee.
H. A. Winnie, General Electric
company official, told the com
mittee that plutonium "is one of
the most deadly poisons known
to man."
He said that the plant at Han
ford is so constructed as to per
mit only one particle of pluto
nium to 100 trillion parts of
air.
"This is the amount consid
ered today by the best authori
ties as a safe margin."
