(Continued from Pto 1)
This time there is no American
objection to the British proposal,
which is to pull out all remaining
troops but leave a military train
ing mission of 150 to 200 men.
The communist guerrillas have
been routed and say they have
called off a civil war.
The United States at the mo
ment is talking with the Greek
government about trimming its
armed forces by possibly 25 per
cent from the present peak of
260.000 men under arms.
The British military contin
gent has been in the area of Sa
lonika, serving as a stabilizing
force. Britain also has occupa
tion forces of more than 100,000
in Germany, and small forces in
Malaya, Hong Kong, Trieste, and
elsewhere.
Before last month's meeting
here of the Big Three foreign
ministers officials thought it
likely that Foreign Minister Er
nest Bevin might suggest that
Britain no longer could carry all
this burden, but the subject was
not raised.

Shake-up
(Continued from Page 1)
"What have you to say?" they
asked him.
"Nothing at the moment,"
Matthews said.
A reporter said there seemed
to be a question whether Navy
Captain John Crommelin, who
precipitated the congressional
investigation, would be brought
before a court martial.
'That's a navy matter," John
son said.
Matthews and Deputy Secre
tary Stephen Early were among
those who met with Johnson a,
the Pentagon before the White
House call.
Army Secretary Gordon Gray
and Air Secretary W. Stuart
Symington were out of town.
They were represented by act
ing Army Secretary Tracy Voor
hees and acting Air Secretary
Eugene Zuckert.
At the White House, a report
er told Johnson there have been
published reports that Admiral
Forrest Sherman will succeed
Admiral Louis Denfield as Chief
of naval operations. Johnson
said, "I have made no announce
ment of any type or character In
that field. I have indulged in no
comment in that field. I'm not
responsible for what is printed.
I have said nothing that could be
a basis for that story. I am say
ing nothing now that could sup
port or deny it."
Johnson said the Pentagon
discussion "covered the whole
field" of the testimony. He re
marked that an announcement
about it was made from his
headquarters.
The cooking experts say thatltence Saturday will be W. T,
cider can be used in making the
finest kind of apple sauce. It al

Criminal
(Continued from Pnge 11
John Lawrence Paulson who
in August was sentenced to six
months in jail with suspended
sentence and 18 months proba
tion granted for assault on the
person of his wife, was up on
revocation which the court
granted after hearing a state
ment from George Henderson of
the state parole office. Paulson
was originally charged with as
sault with a dangerous weapon,
but the charge was reduced to
simple assault when he entered
his plea.
Edward J. Harris in a pica of
guilty to securing a Winchester
rifle from a store by imperson
ating someone else to obtain it,
was sentenced to three years in
the penitentiary with credit off
for time in jail. He has twice
before been in the prison here.
Albert J. Wilson who pleaded
guilty to stealing a car belong
ing to Estella E. Pomeroy also
got three years in the peniten
tiary. He is an ex-convict from
Minnesota with quite a record.
He, too, got credit for time in
jail.
Roy Clifford Bruaas, who at
tempted to pass a worthless
check on Vince Electric, was
sent to the hospital for 30 days
for observation after a guilty
plea. He showed the court
wrists bandaged up which he
said had been slashed while he
was in a drunken stupor.
Entering pleas of guilty and
continued over to Saturday for
sentence were Floyd Rhymer to
attempting to obtain money by
false pretenses at the Pioneer
iclub. Also coming up for sen-
Homes, previously pleading
guilty to a check charge.
State Board
(Continued from Page 1)
Interrupting Pearson, McKay
declared, "I don't like your tac
tics."
"Your charges are ridiculous,"
the governor continued. "I went
to Washington on public busi
ness and have a fund provided
by the legislature for travel
The tire contract you speak of
was recommended by the state
highway commission and it is a
matter of Judgment as to which
firm was low."
The governor denied th.it he
had made any attack upon Pear
son, saying that he had simply
refused to approve the claim.
Secretary Ncwbry attempted
to pour oil on the troubled
waters by Injecting the fact that
he was sending the vouchor
through normal channels to the
claims audit division where its
validity will be established.
Hits at Neuherger
Newbry also hurled a broad
side at State Senator Richard
Neubergcr, who had issued a
press statement criticizing the
secretary of state', action.
"Neubnrger is nothing but a
cheat," Ncwbry said.
"So tar as the state seals are
concerned," said Newbry, "I
haven't had any printed since
taking office. The last purchase
was made n March 21, 1947,
seven months before I took of
fice. "I would hate to see Neuher
ger In my place." Newbry add
ed, "He would have his name in
colors on everything issued by
the office and even would have
nil name in box car letters on
the dome of the capitol:"
Newbry closed the discussion
by saying that he had made a
substantial reduction in safety
booklets, picture postcards for
tourists and individually typed
letters, for vcarc a irrvice of his
office.
Beach and Beech
Mix-up Referred
To Chief Roble
In north Salem Is Beach
street. In south Salem is Beech
street.
It's confusing to mail car
riers, firemen, police patrols,
and to the public in general.
So Fire Chief W. P. Roble
has the job of deciding what
ought to be done about it.
Alderman Dan Fry, at the
council meeting Monday night,
tried to get summary action.
"I move that we beach
Beech street," he said.
The aldermen all laughed,
but nobody seconded the mo
tion. The planning and zoning
commission referred the mat
ter to the council with a re
commendation that an investi
gation be made to see if Beech
street couldn't be taken off
the city map.
That's why it was referred
to Chief Roble.
Houston Bans
fContinued from Pnee 1
The postal system, power pro
lects and progressive taxes are
bits of socialism; and public free
education and old age assistance
are examples of communism . . .
to each according to his need."
Werlein charged that the ques
tionable wording would "have a
bad effect on a child s mind,
planting insidious seeds." He
made a motion for immediate
action, and it was almost unani
mously approved.
J. B. Giles, professor of eco
nomics at Rice Institute, was
outspoken against the board's
action. He called it "similar to
the burning orgies which have
been notable in the past."
Superintendent Morcland, de
clining comment on the ban.
said the book has been in use
here since 1933, first a refer
ence book, and since 1945 as a
text.
Magrudcr Retired Prof.
Corvallis, Ore., Oct. 25 U.R)
Dr. Frank Abbott Magrudcr,
whose textbook "American Gov
ernment" was banned today in
Houston, Texas, has advocated
that the United States pursue a
"middle course" politically.
Magruder, a retired professor
of political science at Oregon
State college, is one of the na
tion's most prolific authors of
textbooks. "American Govern
ment," one of his best known
textbooks, is a standurd civic
text in a lnrgc number of schools
throughout the United States.
Magrudcr toured the world
before World War II, visiting
Germany, Russia, Japan and
Spain. In an interview following
his return, Magrudcr described
the "ultra-nationalistic" spirit
ho found in both Russia and
Germany and said:
"As to America, I am convin
ced that our best plan is to con
tinue to pursure a middle course
which will avoid the extremes
of either fnscism or commun
ism. Wliile these philosophies of
government arc neither all bad
nor all good in practice, there is
no indication that we would
gain by encouraging cither one
in this country."
Magrudrr has lived in retire
ment recently, devoting part of
his time to bringing his text
books up to dale. In 1042 Gov.
Charles Sprugue appointed Ma
(jrudcr a delegate to the Ameri
can Academy of Political
Science.

Salem Community Chest Over
Mystery of Ghost Plane
Buzzing Tower
By C. K. LOGAN
Mystery of the "ghost" plane which buzzed the CAA control
tower at McNary field ii as deep today as the fog In which tht
still unidentified pilot disappeared
The unknown flier, from the
tower, could have flown a total
of gasoline carried.
All communication facilities!
in the zone of the fog blanket
which stretched as far south as
Roseburg and north to Seattle
where some lesser degree of
density and "free" spots were
reported, have been checked. No
flight plans have been uncov
ered nor known planes missing.
Density of the fog was be
tween 1200 and 1500 feet over
Portland with an estimate of
around 1000 feet for the Salem
field at that time.
Though it is thought that the
pilot was a "smart cookie" even
though "dumb" enough to take
off in such poor flying condi
tions, the possibility that he
crashed in the hills near Salem
has not been discounted but no
definite action can be taken un
til this is proven, according to
the state bureau of aeronautics.
Pilots continually violate CAA
rules that a flight plan be filed
before a take-off, but they Ig
nore this and blithly take off
on a cross-country trip without
notifying anyone as to destina
tion or estimated time of return.
The "mystery" pilot may be
long to this category and when
he flew into the fog belt,
dropped low enough to check
his compass and get his bear
ings. Even though he had radio
equipment, it is not likely In
view of the violation of CAA
regulations that he would let the
CAA tower give away his iden
tity and lead to serious conse
quences.
The CAA does not look light-

Flood Danger
(Continued from Page 1)
Since it has already been de
cided that a survey and cost
estimate be made during the
winter for an over-all drainage
project next year, covering all
parts of the city where needed.
City Manager Franzen said
Monday night the main thing to
be done now Is to decide where
the money is coming from to
pay for it.
He suggested that a financing
plan be put on the ballot at
the May election.
The culvert construction to
be done immediately is in ad
dition to other provisions made
two weeks ago for emergency
relief this winter, if needed,
to tide over until a first class
project can be completed. Two
weeks ago the council author
ized the manager to purchase a
sewer cleaning machine and
pumps necessary for emergency
use. Last night the manager re
ported that patrols are being
organized to watch the district
during heavy rains and get
pumps installed where they will
do the most good.
It is roughly estimated that
about 2000 feet of 60-inch pipe
will be needed when the project
gets under way next year, and
it is probable this will be made
by the Seattle Concrete Pipa
company which is now here mak
ing pipe for the interceptor sew-
er project. Franzen assured the
council and the people present
that the drainage project would
be completed next year.
The condition last winter was
especially bad because of a long
freezing spell that preceded the
rains, leaving the ground in a
frozen condition that caused an
accumulation of surface water.
Franzen said it was unlikely
the same conditions would occur
this year.
