At the time he was opening
Russian suitcases, Jordan said,
he was stationed at an airfield
at Great Falls, Mont., from
which lend-lease planes were
ferried to Russia by way of
Alaska.
3 Shipments Made
Before putting Jordan on the
stand, the committee got from
its own senior investigator, Lou
is J. Russell, testimony that the
group has evidence of three
shipments of atomic materials
to Russia in 1943.
Russell said he had no infor
mation that Hopkins was con
nected with them in any way.
The information on three
shipments of A-bomb materials
was not new. A former member
of the committee, John McDow
ell, Pennsylvania republican,
told the house and reporters
about it last year.
Commenting Counsel Frank
Tavenner said to Russell:
"I would like to ask you
whether in the course of your
investigation any information
came to your attention . . . that
the late Harry Hopkins was in
volved in any way?"
To the best of my know
ledge," Russell said, "his name
was never brought up. But an
other name was brought up and
I would rather bring his name
up in executive session."
McDowell had said two high
administration officials were
connected with shipments.
Cut Off by Groves
Russell said it was deter
mined that after the first ship
ment of atomic materials to
Russia the Manhattan engineer
ing district, which developed
the atomic bomb under direc
tion of Gen. Leslie Groves, "cut
off all sources of supply of uran
ium material in the United
States."
The second shipment, Russell
said, was obtained from a
Canadian source.
Russell read a letter from the
state department, dated June
11, 1948, to a staff member of
the committee which said ex
port licenses were issued in
March, 1943, for a first ship
ment of 200 pounds of urano,
uranic oxide and 200 pounds of
uranium nitrate.
Export Licenses Issued
An export license was issued
for 500 pounds of each for sec
ond shipment. Other evidence
indicated this was in April, 1943.
Also in April, 1943: there was
a third export license for 25
pounds of uranium metal itself.
Furthermore, the state de
partment advised that in No
vember of that year arrange
ments were made for Russia to
get 1,000 grams of heavy water
The state department said it
had nothing to do with the
transactions but was merely
supplying infor-mation from re
cords of the lend-lease admin
istration and the foreign econo
mic administration, whose re
cords it absorbed.

New Patrols for Schools
Are Favored by Newbry
By JAMES D. OLSON
Creation of new school patrols in elementary schools of the
state, members of which are to
ments, is recommended in a manual issued Monday by Secretary
of State Earl T. Newbry.
The recommendations for operation of the patrol are the result
of collaboratinon by the state
department with the supenn-i
tendent of public instruction;
the state highway department,
state police and the state fire
marshal.
School patrols in the past have
been confined to traffic control
but the new school patrol mem
bers, under the plan, could be
assigned to fire drills, prevent
ing abuses on playgrounds;
maintaining order In loading and
unloading school buses; operat
ing special foot patrols in rural
schools; policing buildings and
grounds and traffic control.
Capt. Walter Lansing, of the
state police, who heads the traf
fic safety department of the
state department, has been des
ignated co-ordinator in the new
set-up. Members of his staff, up
on request, will assist in forming
and counseling groups formed
in the elementary schools.
The recommendations for the
operation of Oregon school pa
trols follows closely the stand
ard rules adopted by the Nation
al. Congress of Parents and
Teachers and according to Capt.
Lansing are in harmony with
the best legal advice and court
decisions on questions of author
ity and responsibility.
The new manuals are being
sent to all county superintend
ents for re-distribution to schools
interested in the new plan, and
also to all sheriffs and chiefs of
police in the state.
A specially designed badge
will be furnished by the state
to all members of school patrols
and citations will be awarded
to members for meritorious
deeds in connection with patrol
work.

"As an arm of the government,
acting on behalf of the people in
the international field, and con
sidering the treaties under which
the organization is restricted in
use of the name and emblem to
the organization itself, it is im
perative the Red Cross conduct
its own campaign," Mr. Shea
said.
"Further, we believe the final
judgment on whether the Red
Cross is carrying out the respon
sibilities assigned to it should
be made by the individual con
tributprs. In the final analysis
they determine what we do and
how much we do.
"In a period when individual
responsibility is most needed, the
leadership of the Re Cross chap
ters has a responsibility and an
opportunity to bring to the peo
ple of the respective communi
ties a consciousness of their
share in assisting with the bur
dens of others," Mr. Shea said.
Plans for the fund campaign
were discussed by Mr. Dom-

He pointed out that with the
overpass proposal removed from
the new route a cut will be re
quired and there will be some
what blinded conditions at
places. Dr. Loar discounted this,
saying that a slight alteration
may be made m the survey to
do away with the cut and that
there was an open road ahead.
Judge Murphy said that the
county court had some say in
the matter of selecting the route
but would not be the deciding
factor. The route selection would
be made, he said, by the state
highway commission and fed
eral authorities.
However, he added, if the new
route is selected it must first be
determined to be a county road
and only the county court can
do this. If the old route is re
aligned, this also will require
proceedings by the county court,
and in either case if the court
doesn't take the necessary steps
there will be no improvement.
He offered the guess that the
right of way of the new route
may cost about $25,000 more
than that along the old route.
But, he added, it is only a guess.
There are a number of unknown
valuations yet to be determined.
However, he said a comparative
statement will be developed as
to the respective costs before
anything is finally done in the
matter.
