where a way of necessity is be
ing asked on petition of several
of the property owners. This is
a dedicated road near the inter
section of the 12th street cut
off with 99E. The petition
showed that when land was first
old provision was made for a
SO-foot dedicated road and deeds
for one side of the road, or 15
feet of it, provided for. such
right-of-way. But, it was stat
ed, when land was sold on the
other side no provision was
made in the deeds for the other
15 feet. Lately one of the prop
erty owners, it is averred, dump
ed several loads of dirt on the
iindeeded portion. Now other
property owners are seeking to
force a road through on that
side. i
Shows Road Progress A
check made by County Commis
sioner Roy Rice shows that out
of 66 roads for which oiled road
Improvements were petitioned
r,t hearings held in 1946 and
1947, 35 of them have either
been Improved all, or in part;
for the distances asked. This,
too, in spite of the fact no new
roads were laid out this year
because of the necessity of con
fining all of the work to repair
damages done by freezing last
winter.

(Continued from Page 1)
McCarthy named the liquor
interests involved in the alleged
reports as "Schenley" and "Cos
tello." He said Frankie Costello,
reputed New York gambling
kingpin; William Helis, horse
owner and race track figure, and
Phil Kastel are partners In a li
quor concern.'
Yesterday Vaughan had de
nied any knowledge that any of
the democratic campaign con
tributions he received came
from Costello. He said he did
get a contribution he thought
it was around $2,000 through
Helis.
In the clemency case Vaughan
said Attorney William H. Neb
lett called on him in the interest
of Robert Gould of Cincinnati,
serving six years in the liquor
black market case.
Denies Connection
I don't think that had a
thing to do with it, senator,"
Vaughan testified when McCar
thy asked him about a possible
connection between the cam
paign contribution and the pa
role Gould finally got.
In fact, he said he only
thinks" Gould got a parole
about a year later.
Shortly before the hearings
recessed until tomorrow, Mc
Carthy drew from Vaughan an
acknowledgement that he
bought a car for a friend, Mrs.
Morris Cavannaugh of Spring
Green, Wis.
McCarthy said it was an Olds-
mobile purchased in 1947 and
that it turned up in the black
market 10 days later at a price
of $3,500.
Vaughan called the black
market angle "very much a sur
prise."
After the hearing, Schenley
Distillers, Inc., issued this state
ment:
'General Vaughan never made
any inquiry for us and was never
paid anything by us, nor asked
to do anything for us on grain
or any other matter."

Lt. Gen. Geoffrey Keyes

On army spokesman said to

There are at least three
Americans missing in the Rus

two Americans missing in the

said.
We did not even try to bar

American circles in Vienna

It was noted that Russia's

American sources said they
expected Barsov to be used for

and then to drop from sight.
Says German Youth
Want to Live in U. S.
Dallas, Ore., Aug. 31 (U.R) -
Joyce Bartell, Dallas high school
senior who recently toured west

the dream of German youth is to
live in the land which helped
conquer them, America.
Miss Bartell said, "We saw the
true picture of the nations poor
condition when we lived and ate
in their private homes."
"On the whole, German youths
are not too optimistic about the
future. They have been through
so much and lost nearly every
thing." "They are interested in Ameri
can Schools and ask many ques
tions about them," Miss Bartell
said.

members chosen by the area of
fice of the American Red Cross

one observer, with Don Legg

Cross assistant director, in
charge of the camp. (Mr. Legg

mer after serving as state rela
tions officer in the Red Cross

counties).

lected to attend the camp on the
basis of leadership and for his
enthusiasm and achievement in
