.Solution For
I Flying Saucers
I Washington, Aug. 20 U.R) Air
force investigators skeptical
but intrigued were trying to
day to locate an eccentric in
ventor who more than 10 years
ago built two contraptions that
look like "flying saucers."
The two disc-type ships, bat
tered and damaged, were found
yesterday in a Maryland barn,
where they had lain untended
for nine years.
"It is apparent that both
ships would give the appear
ance of flying discs," an air
force spokesman said.
While an air force officer last
night described the two craft as
"definite prototypes of flying
saucers, the service hedged to
day.
A spokesman objected to the
word "prototype," saying the
air force has only reports of
what flying saucers look like
and has never established that
such things actually were seen.
The inventor of the Maryland
contraptions, Jonathan E. Cald
well, disappeared in 1940. The
only possibility of any connec
tion between his old abandoned
devices and the rumored "fly
ing saucers" of recent years
would lie in the possibility that
he went to other parts of the
country, developed better mod
els and flew them successfully.
Start Oiling
Silverfon Road
The county oiling crew start
ed resealing Friday on the Sa-lem-Middle
Grove section of the
Silverton road along with build
up and repairs on any needed
spots.
From there the crew will
swing onto the various stretches
around Salem which need re
pair or resealing due to freeze
damage from last winter and
will complete the work in this
area before swinging to the
south and east. The north end
has been completed for the year.
It had been planned to send
the crew into the south end
when the north end work was
finished and leave the Salem
area to the last. This was due to
the strike which had thrown
pickets on some of the gravel
plants in this vicinity but with
settlement of that situation the
plans were changed to handle
the work in this section before
moving south.
20 Unclaimed Bikes
Held af Police
At least 20 unclaimed bicycles
are now stored in the municipal
shops at 13th and Ferry streets,
and city police are anxious to re
turn these vehicles to their prop
er owners.
Any person who has had his
bicycle stolen in Salem in the
past two years is urged to con
tact police headquarters, or go
directly to the shops and present
a description of the stolen bike.
If a person can prove owner
ship of one of the bikes stored
there, the vehicle will be turned
over to him.
City Juvenjle Officer Allen
McRae urges all bike owners to
keep a record of the bike's serial
number, to aid in identification
In case the bike should be stolen.

Farmers Union Chief for
Brannan's Farm Program
There are no inconsistencies involved in the so-called Brannan
plan, the farm bill based on a "philosophy of abundance," in the
opinion of James G. Patton, president of the National Farmers
Union. And as for subsidies "they are as old as the time George
Washington crossed the Delaware."
These declarations were made'
by Patton during an interview
with the press Saturday morn
ing while here to meet with of
ficials of the Oregon Farmers
Union and for a general confer
ence with the membership of the
organization during a picnic to
be held at Champoeg Sunday aft
ernoon. "The people should be asking
whether the subsidies now in ef
fect are being effectively and ef
ficiently used," rather than be
ing stampeded by the cry of so
cialism and regimentation, said
Patton. He explained that under
the Brannan program the pro
ducer would be paid the subsidy
price directly and then would
move his products into the chan
nels of trade in a normal man
ner. In this way, he added, the
consumer would not pay twice as
he is doing under the present
plan of subsidization whereun
der the government purchases
quantities of foodstuffs and then
destroys them to keep the price
up.
Asked whether the producers
would not be tempted to pro
duce beyond the capacity of the
country to consume, Patton an
swered that currently 75 per
cent of the crops are not covered
by the parity arrangements,
With all agriculture covered he
said there would be a tendency
on the part of the grower to di
versify his production. The net
result would be an opportunity
to raise dietary standards for all
of the people.
Patton does not see a full scale
depression although a situation
which pushes unemployment
much over the 5,000,000 mark is
England and Canada suffered
bruises and some fractures.
Grafton county Solicitor Rob
ert A. Jones said a trainman's
error switched the Montreal
bound Ambassador out of Bos
ton into the south-bound Am
bassador out of Montreal. The

Radio to Fight
For Giveaways
Washineton. Aug. 20 (U.R)
Radio giveaway programs which
distribute millions of dollars a
year in money and prizes pro
bably will stay on the air inde
finitely, despite a government
ruling that would outlaw them
after Oct. 1.
This was the word in the
broadcasting industry today. The
prediction was based on a deci
sion by broadcasters to act at
once to take the issue to court.
The federal communications
commission ruled yesterday in
a 3 to 1 decision that the big
jackpot programs are lotteries
and therefore cannot be legally
broadcast.
Since the FCC has not imme
diate control over program con
tent, it did not name specific
shows. But it laid down anti
lottery regulations that would
include just about all the give
aways. The commission Itself indicat
ed it w o u 1 d welcome a court
test of the controversial issue.
It pointed out that broadcasters
would have ample time to pre
pare an appeal.
No action will be taken
against a station broadcasting
the prohibited giveaways until
its license comes up for renew
al, any time after Oct. 1. Licen
ses must be renewed every three
years.
far from a healthy one, he ad
mitted. The farmer, he said,
along with people in other lines
of endeavor is much better off
economically than before the
war. "He has had a better mem
ory this time," had reduced his
obligations and in other ways is
much better too to weather any
economic storm that may descend.
Recover Bodies
Of Plane Victims
Portland, Ore., Aug. 20 U.R
The bodies of three California
service men, killed when a B-
26 attack bomber crashed into
Mt. Hood's Mississippi bluff,
reached here today after 16 vet
eran mountaineers scaled sheer
palisades of crumbling rock to
recover them.
Sightseers were warned to
stay awa" from the bluff on the
north side of the mountain at
the 7,100-foot mark. Vibrations
set off by a low flying plane
yesterday started small slides
A 50-pound stone glanced off
one climber, but he was unhurt
The dead, Army Col. Walter
W. Hodge, 45, San Francisco,
Air Force Col. A. Y. Smith, 49.
San Francisco, and MSgt. H. E.
Sluga, San Jose, Calif., were
carried down, one at a time, first
to Timberline lodge and then
brought here.
The plane disappeared April
21, on a flight from Hamilton
Field, Calif., to Portland. It was
last contacted by the Portland
tower when it messaged it was
coming in for an instrument let
down.
The plane s wreckage was
scattered about the face of the
bluff, the compass, altimeter
and part of the instrument panel
were found on top with a section
of the right wing. One engine
was an eighth of a mile away
The bodies were taken to the
Multnomah county morgue and
will be flown to McChord field
air force base, Wash.
Klamath Gets
Federal Loan
Washington, Aug. 20 VP)
Klamath county, Oregon, gets
a government loan of $150,000
to improve four schools under
a bill signed today by President
Truman.
The improvements . will be
made at the Chiloquin and
Sprague River schools on the
Klamath Indian reservation and
at Bonanza and Bly, just outside
the reservation. A fourth of the
students in the schools are In
dians, Heating, lighting and sewer
systems will be improved at all
four schools. Shop work will be
started at Bonanza and Bly will
try to keep Indian students in
high school. Chiloquin will get
a gymnasium and Sprague River
a cafeteria.
The federal government will
put up about half of the cost of
the improvements and get. its
$150,000 back at three per cent
interest over 30 years. This will
be done by withholding annual
federal payments for education
of Indians in the county.

read over the list of ingredients

Soybeans Set
Pace for Markel
Chicaeo. Aus. 20 (IP) With
soybeans setting the pace, prices
of all commodities moved higher
on the board of trade today. Soy
beans soared into new seasonal
high territory on grains which
extended to around 5 cents at
times. Dealings were active.
Aside from soybeans, which
were firm from the start, the
market got off on a weak tone.
But late in the session trading
picked up and prices pushed
ahead a couple of cents in ma
jor gains. A good deal of cov
ering by local traders who had
gone short earlier in the session
helped soybeans.
Wheat closed 2 to 3 cents high
er, September $2.007a-9i, corn
was i-l'i higher, September
$1.22:4-, oats were "4- high
er, September 66, rye was Wk
1 higher, September $1.44

higher, November $2.48 Vt-M.
and lard was unchanged to 10
cents a hundred pounds higher,
September $12.70.
