Medford Talks
On High Taxes
No government ever spent Its
people rich or taxed them into
prosperity declared T. M. "Ted"
Medford as he warned that high
taxation was gradually drying
up the investment in tools that
had made this country great. He
made this assertion during an
address before the Salem Rotary
club Wednesday noon.
Medford declared that taxes
are taking 31 cents out of every
dollar earned by the worker and
that excessive taxation is cut
ting down contributions to
churches and to college endow
ments. The speaker said that the con
stitution of the United States
was the "greatest blueprint for
prosperity the world has ever
known. It has brought oppor
tunity to men with ambition and
energy and men with ideas. The
result, he said has astounded the
world.
Although the country was
built by men under the capital
istic system unhampered by
"governmental harness" Med
ford said that the drift toward
stateism was becoming more and
more pronounced. He asked his
audience to take cognizance of
this and do something to correct
the tendency;
15 YearYouth
Admits Hold-up
Port Orchard, Wash., Oct. 26
(P) Sheriff Dean D. Jones said
today a 15-year-old boy had ad
mitted an armed holdup of a
Hood canal inn with another
youth.
The 15-year-old was arrested

the number of teen-agers under
arrest in connection with a se
ries of burglaries and other
crimes in Kitsap and Mason

The sheriff said another ad
mitted burglary by members of
the group ran the total to nine
burglaries and four automobile
thefts. The burglary loot was
listed at $613 in cash, plus cloth
ing and beer.
Jones said the newly arrested
15-year-old told of participating
with an 18-year-old in the arm
ed holdup of Robin Hood Inn on
Hood canal near the night clos
ing hour Sept. 25. They got
about $160 from the cash regis
ter and $60 from patrons.
The sheriff said the boy relat
ed how both of them were arm
ed with Luger pistols, which
they had stolen from a friend.
They later abandoned the weap
ons in a Bremerton theater. The
boy explained that they didn't
want to throw them away be
cause tney oeiongea 10 me
friend. They left the pistols in
the theater in the hope they
would be returned to the owner.
The 18-year-old named by the
boy as an accomplice was among
the group of boys arrested ear
lier.

(Continued from Page 1
Russia, the note concluded,
considers it "impossible" for
Mrazovic to continue to repre
sent the Tito regime in the Sov
iet Union.
The Soviet literary Gazette
declared today that Yugoslav
Marshall Tito is often seen in
Belgrade "in the company of
an American syp, Singer Zinka
Kuntz."
Prints Tito Scandal
The article, carrying Bel
grade dateline, said the singer
was married to a Yugoslav gen
eral and had become "a dictator
of fashions for wives of ministers
and generals" in Belgrade.
"This woman married Yugo
slav Trotskylte General Ilich in
New York and thus got into Yu
goslavla," the article declared.
"Expensive diamonds are given
her by Tito."
(This dispatch, filed through
Soviet censorship did not fur
ther identify the woman. The
Literary Gazette article's bitter
personal attack on Tito was a
continuation of the growing
propaganda war by the Russian-
led cominform against the Yu
goslav regime).
The writer, whose name was
given as V. Stoyanovich, accused
Tito of "depositing his stolen
wealth" in Swiss banks because
sooner or later he will have
to flee the wrath of the peo
ple." Geological Meeting Arthur
W. Schmidt, geologist with the

School Cooks
In Conference
One of the most Interesting
special meetings held in connec
tion with the five-county insti
tute here was a two-day confer
ence of all cooks employed by
school district No. 24, with dem
onstrations each day.
The conference was held at
Richmond school Monday and
Tuesday with facilities of the

meeting.
The conference opened Mon
day with a welcome by Miss Ma
thilda Gilles, principal at Rich
mond. Most of the two days was
given to the subject of protein
cookery, with discussions in
charge of Mrs. Emma Wasson,
school lunch director of district
24.
Demonstrations the first day
were on baking by Frances
Brennan of Portland, economist
for the Crown Flour company.
On the second day Miss Betty
Bolton, dietitian at Salem Gen
eral hospital, demonstrated food
economy.
A discussion of the part of
nurses in the school lunch pro
gram was given by Mrs. Bernice
Yeary, director of public health
nursing in Marion county.
Pentagon
(Continued from Page 11
There was no immediate indi
cation of how the administration
might go about asking for Den
feld's resignation or directing
his ouster. Friends of Denfeld
said the admiral so far has giv
en every evidence of intending
to remain until removed, that
he doesn't intend to resign from
his job as chief of naval oper
ations, to which he had just been
reappointed for another two
year term.
There Is no recent precedent
for ousting a military officer of
Denfeld s rank and position.
Like the chiefs of staff of the
other services, he was appointed
by the president, with confirma
tion by the senate. Thus, it
would take presidential action
to remove him.
Denfeld and Gen. Omar Brad
ley who at the hearings deplor
ed "fancy Dan" admirals who
wanted to run unification their
own way came face to face ov
er a conference table yesterday
afternoon.
Harmonious? "Sure"
The joint chiefs of staff then
held its first meeting since Den
feld's criticism and Bradley's
sharp-tongued reply shook the
hearing chamber.
When the three hour and fif
teen minute meeting was con
cluded Bradley was asked by re
porters if it was harmonious.
The general replied with one
word:
"Sure."

the general doesn't feel the same
about all admirals.

west of the present hospital off
Center street. On the first floor
would be the birth department

floors would be for patients,
with a capacity for from 40 to
