Vishinski Calls Big 5 .
To Conclude Peace Pact
New York, Sept. 23 () Soviet Foreign Minister Andrei Y.
Vishinsky called on the big five power today to conclude a
peace pact among themselves.
He made no mention of an atomic explosion In the Soviet
Union In his general policy address to the United Nations assembly.
Vinshinsky prefaced his peacev
proposal with his usual slashing
attack on the western powers.
He charged the United States
and Britain are leading plans
for an aggressive war.
Then he introduced a formal
resolution by which the assem
bly would express the desire
for Russia, the United States,
Britain, China and France to
conclude a peace pact among
themselves.
Vishinsky said n o t a word
Johnson Seeks
Dismissal
A single word threatened Fri
day to bring an end to a trial of
Fred (Umatilla) Johnson who
was brought into district court
on a charge of running a poker
game.
The defense attorney. Brazier
Small, waited until District At
torney E. O. Stadter had com
pleted his case against Johnson,
then he moved for a directed
verdict to free his client.
In the judge's office, Small
argued that the complaint had
also charged Johnson with be
ing a "proprietor" in addition to
running a card game at Bert's
pool room In Detroit.
Small contended that no evi
dence of ownership or propri
etorship had been brought out
In court.
The case against Johnson had
been prepared by a $100-a-week
special investigator for the she
riff's office, B. Pate. Pate told
of spending two weeks in the
dam area ferreting out evidence
of gambling. It was his informa
tion which led to a series of Ju
ly raids there.
His testimony in the case
against Johnson was to the ef
fect that the accused man had
run a "dealer's choice" poker
game. He claimed Johnson col
lected a fee for the privilege of
letting each player into the game
and that he handled a cash box
and chips for "the house."
Threat to Peace
Becomes Real
; Washington, Sept. 23 W)
There was one point of fairly
general agreement today In ear
ly congressional reaction to news
that Russia apparently has the
atom bomb the threat to peace
la real.
On what to do about it there
were about as many opinions as
there are shades of thinking at
the capitol on world affairs.
Sample comment:
Senator Wherry (R-Neb): "If
the president knew yesterday
that Russia had the atomic
bomb, why has the emphasis
been placed on the ground war
itrategy of the military assist
ance bill passed by the senate
last night?"
He said this country should
direct its defense efforts to de
veloping air bases in the United
States, North Africa and the Pa
ciflc. and concluded a statement:
"A fortnight, honorable for
tign policy, with fairness to Rus
la and all other countries, Is the
best guarantee for keeping the
peace."
Rep. Cox (D-Ga): "What the
president disclosed today empha
sizes to me that It would be sui
cidal for the United States to
falter In Its program of re
constructing and rearming west
ern Europe. Unless we can save
western Europe from Russian
domination we might Just as well
prepare to wear the yoke that
Russia will impose."
Rep. Cunningham (R Iowa):
"If this Is true, It means that
world war three Is that much
closer,"
And
"THE FIGHTING O'FLYNN"

about President Truman's an
nouncement in Washington that
there Is evidence of an atomic
explosion In the Soviet Union.
He also took no notice of a
declaration by Secretary of
State Dean Acheson that the
United States had expected such
an atomic development and had
no plans to change policy be
cause of It. Acheson held a news
conference Just before Vishin
sky spoke.
The Vishinsky speech was far
less fiery than his "war-mon
ger" blast in the 1947 assem
bly which provoked boos from
the gallery. It represented a let
down for many delegates who
had expected some word on the
atomic developments.
The speech was one of the
shortest major efforts In Vishin
sky's career. It was the first
speech delegates recalled that
he had ended on such a peaceful
note.
Vishinsky said in his prepared
speech that the United States
and Britain have refused to con
clude conventions for prohibit
ing atomic weapons.
He said the United States con
tinues to build new army, navy
and air bases in all parts of the
world.
Elfsfromon
Parking Issue
Mayor Robert L. Elfstrom be
lieves the possibility of provid
ing parking space for automo
biles beneath the courthouse
should be explored further. He
said as much during a discus
sion of traffic conditions during
Friday's luncheon of the Salem
Board of Realtors.
After reviewing the parking
situation here as well as in other
cities over the country, the
mayor said he had no recom
mendation as to a solution of the
problem. He said, however, that
the report of the special off-
street parking committee should
be worthy of consideration.
A plan adopted by a group of
Oakland, Calif, merchants sev
eral years ago has worked out
well in that city, reported the
mayor. There the cost to the
merchants hus been approxi
mately four cents for each car
parked.
In Miami Beach, Fla., metered
parking lots with a certain
amount of free time available,
has proven acceptable to all con
cerned. Metered parking, the
mayor explains, eliminated the
necessity of paid attendants for
the lots.
With all Indications pointing
to a heavy increase in the num
ber of can during the next few
years, provision for parking in
the so-called downtown areas
must be provided or decentrali
zation will be continued at a ra
pid rate, the mayor warned.
This, he said, means lower valu
ations and higher taxes.

Refutes Myths
About Indians
Indians do not pray for rain;
they merely express gratitude
for the moisture they are sure
will fall. This was one of the
numerous assertions refuting
popular conceptions of redskin
customs made by Charles Eagle
Plume before a capacity au
dience of Salem Knife and Fork
club members Thursday night.
Eagle Plume, a member of the
Blackfoot tribe, attired in
tribal costume, presented a pro
gram of dances while giving a
lecture concerning the original
Americans. He closed by urg
ing members of his audience to
demand from congress better
educational facilities for the In
dians. He asserted but 25 per
cent of them are given an oppor
tunity to better their lot
through education. Many, he
said, live under deplorable con
ditions, suffer from under-nour-
ishment and are not prepared to
combat disease.
Although admitting that the
squaws perform a majority of
the necessary chores on the res
ervation, Eagle Plume said that
was not always true. The very
nature of the Indians' struggle
for existence through the years
meant that all members of the
family had to work. The men
provided the meat with prim
itive tools and on foot in the
early days. Ability to secure
horses and more powerful weap
ons lightened their loads, al
though the squaws' tasks re
mained the same.
Property rights are held al
most exclusively on the mater
nal side of the family, Eagle
Plume stated. He spoke of the
influence the American Indian
had on the economy of the world
since they had contributed 25 of
the some 32 of the world's chief
articles of food.
The next meeting of the club
will be held Oct. 13 when Prince
Otto of Austria will be the lec
turer. Devaluation
Hits Pulp Mills
Seattle, Sept. 23 W The
trade magazine Pulp & Paper
expressed the opinion today that
Washington s pulp industry
faces a threat of ruinous foreign
competition because of currency
devaluations.
The editorial in the Miller
Freeman Publications, Inc.,
magazine said the Scandinavian
countries will be able to dump
products at 40 per cent less than
the prevailing American price.
They provide the principal com
petition for the pulp industries
of Washington and British Co
lumbia. It said it remained to be seen
whether the Scandinavian coun
tries would take advantage of
the opportunity. It added, how
ever, that during a similar sit
uation in the l30's. Scandina
via dumped 1.250.000 tons of
pulp on the U.S. market, result
ing in the closure of two Wash
ington mills and 50 per cent re
duction in others.
The magazine estimated the
industry's Washington payroll
at $38,000,000. It said the aver
age wage in the state's pulp in
dustry is $1.76 per hour, 35
cents higher than anywhere else
in the world.

Blackmerto
Plead Guilty
Washington, Sept. 23 Ml
A justice department official
said today that Henry M. Black-
mer will settle his score with
the government by a guilty plea
to one of the 21-year-old tax
evasion indictments standing
against him.
The government will then
drop the five other indictments,
charging tax evasion and per
jury, this official said.
The action, if carried out,
would subject the 81-year-old
Denver millionaire, who has
been in exile in Europe for the
last 25 years, to a possible pris
on term of one year and a fine
of $5000.
Blackmer, who fled to France
to avoid testifying at congres
sional investigations into the
Teapot Dome oil scandals of the
Harding administration, arrived
in Boston by plane two days
ago. He entered a hospital there
for a physical checkup before
going on to his home in Denver.

rulers were known as Kings of
Upsala.

Delinquents
To Tour Prison
Three alleged juvenile delin
quents due to appear in circuit
court Friday afternoon before
Judge Rex Kimmell will be tak
en on a personally conducted
tour through the Oregon state
penitentiary tomorrow on order
of the circuit judge.
The Judge wants them to see
what a career of crime leads to
and perhaps have a chance to
talk to some of the old lifers and
find out just what they think of
the criminal careers they've In
dulged in and what reward lt
has paid them.
The three youths in question
are 16 and 17 years of age. One
is charged with burglary, anoth
er with contributing to the de
linquency of a minor and the
third with tampering with a car
in a parking lot, evidently with
no innocent intent at 4 o'clock in
the morning.
After the boys have had a
chance to see and hear they will
be returned to Juvenile court
where the judge will get their
reactions before making his de
cision in the respective cases.
As far as known this is an In
novation in the matter of crim
inal juvenile jurisprudence in
this state, at least.
"Perhaps if it is forcibly and I
visually brought home to these
lads to just what end criminal
tendencies can lead it may mean
a turning point in their lives,."
said the Marion county Jurist.
Judge Kimmell has made ar
rangements with Warden George
Alexander of the prison to have
the boys placed in charge of an

Fairview Escapee
Picked-up in Car
Donald Bullington, who es
caped from the Fairview home
Thursday afternoon, was back
in custody today, amazed at the
efficiency of the state police in
recovering stolen cars.
Bullington fled from the home
for the mentally deficient and
evidently walked to Turner, a
few miles distant, where he stole
a car belonging to Bob Ball.
State police linked the auto
theft with the escape of two con
victs from the state prison a
couple of hours earlier, so
broadcast an alarm for every of
ficer to maintain a sharp look
out for the car.
While driving on highway
99-E toward Eugene, a state
policeman spotted the vehicle
and apprehended Bullington.
