O301
New York, Dec. 14 VP) Base
ball Star Jackie Robinson was
praised today as "not only
great citizen, but a great Ameri
can" as he was to receive the
George Washington Carver Me
morial Institute gold award for
1949.
Publisher Frank E. Gannett,
of Rochester, N. Y., said in re
marks prepared for the presen
tation that the Negro second
baseman's career "stands out as
a glowing example of American-
ism at its best."
"In no other country in the
world could Jackie Robinson do
what he has done here," Gan
nett said. "The communists
speak about 'equality' in Russia,
but it s equality that means noth
ing. It's equality of poverty, of
oppression and suppression
The Brooklyn Dodgers star;
was chosen for the annual award
for "outstanding contribution to
the betterment of race rela
tions."
Gannett traced Robinson's
background, from his poverty-
ridden youth in southern Georgia
and California to his rise to base
ball fame, and said:
He has become the idol of
millions of young boys. He has
set an example if he can
achieve such great success, oth
ers of his race can do it."
The award is in honor of the
late George Washington Carver,
noted Negro scientist. It went
to Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt
in 1946; Publisher William Ran
dolph Hearst in 1947 and Movie
Producer Daryl F. Zanuck last
year.

Stocks Advance
To New Peak
New York, Dec. 14 UP) Trad
ing volume hit the highest level
of the year for the second day
running today as the stock mar
ket slowly rolled ahead to a new
1049 peak.
Churning action produced on
ly minor price changes for the
most part. Gains were mostly
less than a point, but it was far
from a one-way market.
Railroad stocks were among
the best while motors, rubbers,
airlines, and electronic issues
found the going bumpy.
The volume of business ap
proached 2,300,000 shares, a 13
month high.
Higher most of the day were

Nip Red Plot
To Seize Mexico
Mexico City, Dec. 14 VP) The
federal attorney for the capital
district announced last night
the government had evidence of
a plot "to overthrow the govern
ment and impose a communist
regime."
Carlos Franco Sodi said the
evidence was discovered when a
leftist labor leader was arrested
during a probe of shortages in
union funds. Franco Sodi show
ed reporters more than 3,000
letters, reports and newspaper
clippings which have been un
der study for three weeks.
The documents also show."
Franco Sodi sadi, "that Mexican
communists have been dealing
with workers' movements in
Costa Rica, 1 Salvador, Guate
mala, Venezuela and Colombia."
He said that "to unify the
workers under the communist
banner, the rising costs of some
articles and the devaluation of
the pesos have been used, with
the idea of provoking agitation
among the masses."
Painter Diego Rivera and
other leftists have protested to
the government recently about
the disappearance of four news
papermen employed by the offi
cial communist newspaper. Po
lice said they arrested the men
and then released them, but they
have not reappeared. There was
no indication whether the dis
appearance was connected with
the report of the plot.

5 Hospitalized
By Escaping Gas
Oakland, Calif., Dec. 14 U.R
Acrid, choking ammonia gas
forced almost 1,000 persons to
evacuate their homes here today.
More than a dozen persons were
overcome by the fumes and five
men were hospitalized. The gas
was released at 4:30 a.m., when
a nine leadine from a tank car
to an Oakland fertilizer plant
burst. Ammonia was being trans
ferred from the car to the Farm
Service Co. plant at 1459 Third
street.
James Whitty. 28, an employe
of the company was hooking up
an iron pipe connecting tne tan
car and a storage tank when
the end of the pipe broke off.
Whitty was forced to flee
from the deadly gas and was tak
en to Providence hospital, ne
was the most seriously injured,
since he took the full strength of
the escaping fumes.
Ten employes were In the
plant at the time of the accident.
They wera forced to leave after
calling the fire department.
As the fumes spread tnrougn
the surrounding neighborhood,
police raced through the area
with sirens screaming to awak
en residents.
Commies Shoot
Down U.S. Plane
Lone Beach, Cal., Dec. 14
(P) Two Americans held by
Chinese communists for 14
month3 were shot down, says
the wife of one.
Mrs. Ruby Smith disclosed
she has received a letter from
Kenneth Watson, Bellingham
Wash., missionary, saying he was
in Tsingtao at the time. Earlier
reports said the plane was for
ced down.
Aboard with Navy Chief Elec
trician William C. Smith of
Lone Beach was Marine Mas
ter Set. Elmer C. Bender of
Cincinnati.
Watson wrote that Smith and
Bender were well-treated by the
communists and said he was
writing missionary friends in
China, urging them to try for
the pair's release.
Solution for
Office Drawings
Remember how irritating it is
to choose a gift for the guy or
girl whose name you get in the
office Christmas drawing?
They've come up with a solu
tion out at Moore Business
Forms, 1895 S. 16th street, and
are performing a worthy deed
in doing so.
The 26 employees of the firm
have had a tradition of drawing
names around Christmas time to
determine who buys who pres
ents, a custom familiar to many
offices and shops in Salem.
A limit of 25 or 50 cents is
usually placed on the intra-of-
fice gift. The chore of picking
out a suitable low-priced gift for
fellow employee can almost
take the joy out of giving. .
This is the plan at Moore Busi
ness Forms this year:
There will be no office Christ
mas drawing. Instead, each em
ployee will place the money he
would have spent on a gift into
pool, and that pool will be
used to bring Christmas cheer
to a needy family.
The Moore Business Forms
management has promised to
match the sum raised by em
ployees for the same purpose.
Charles Stewart, an employee
at Moore's, originated the idea,
and thinks other companies in
Sahm should take note and
adopt a similar program.
Burglar Takes
Christmas Cake
A burglar, taking advantage
of the Christmas season to swipe
a fruit cake, ransacked the resi
dence of Mrs. Carl Anthony at
660 North Commercial street
Tuesday night.
The cash loot taken by the
culprit was estimated at $7. In
addition to the cake and cash,
personal papers were also missing.
Mrs. Anthony discovered the
burglary when she returned to
her home at about 10:30 p.m.
She found the front door open
and noticed that papers and
Christmas cards were strewn
about her home.
She immediately summoned
police.
Officers concluded that en
trance had been gained by tam
pering with the lock on the front
door.
In other reports, a prowler
was reported near the residence
of R. C. Lard at 2286 Hazel ave
nue, and Rose McAnulty, 745
Trade street, reported that wood
had been stolen from an outdoor
stack.
mas. Mrs. Barkley's two daugh
ters, now in St. Louis, will join
them at Sea island for the Yul
holidays.
