Libel Suit in
Second Day
Second morning of the $150,-
000 libel suit of A. C. Burk, for
mer sheriff, against George Put
nam, publisher of the Capital
Journal, on trial in circuit court
here before Judge David R. Van
denberg of Klamath Falls and a
jury, was consumed with cross
examination of the plaintiff,
Burk.
Under questioning Burk said
the parts of an editorial on
which he is basing his action
which he considered libelous
were those dealing with his al
leged official handling of mat
ters relative to "one-armed ban
dits" and labor goons.
Burk said, under cross exam
ination, he had had nothing to
do with law enforcement as to
labor difficulties other than set
tlement of some hop yard trou
bles and that he made no arrests
in connection with such difficul
ties. He further indicated in his
cross examination he considered
his duty lay mainly in the coun
try districts, that in Salem there
was a well equipped police force
while he had but two deputies.
Tuesday afternoon the plain
tiff called George Putnam, pub
lisher; W. A. Scott, circulation
manager of the Captal Journal;
George Schmidt, Mt. Angel, and
Harley Peel, Silverton police
man, the latter two testifying as
to having read the editorial in
question and heard it discussed.
Attorneys expressed the belief
Wednesday that the trial would
probably run over into another
day.
The defense is expected to put
on a number of witnesses after
conclusion of the plaintiff's case.
Speaker Lists
World's Fears
The philosophy of Christmas
must become that of the world
if we are to overcome our
fears, declared Rev. Roy Fedje
as he delivered a Christmas
message before the member
ship of the Kiwanis club Tues
day noon.
He spoke of the advent of
Jesus Christ as the most revo
lutionary event in the history of
the world, a world that was
brutal and cruel. The world
needed a saviour who could ob
serve the sufferings of human
ity, said the speaker.
In speaking of the fears that
beset the world Rev. Fedje de
tailed a world communism drunk
with its own power, the atom
bomb, a rearmed Germany and
a fear of monopolistic groups as
opposed to the disinherited.
Music appropriate to the sea
son was provided by a group of
Willamette university students,
The Kiwanis club adopted
without a negative voice, a reso
lution urging the acceptance by
the government of the Hoover
report.

expect Rita's baby to arrive. Wearing a dark mink coat
and a green scarf around her head, Rita smiled often during
the 20-minute interview. The top of the car had been laid
back to give photographers every possibility for making pic

Molotov Aims at Tito
In a birthday article in the
co m m u n i s t party newspaper
Pravda, V. M. Molotov, former
foreign minister and prominent
Politburo member, said the days
of Yugoslavia's Premier Marshal
Tito are numbered.
Molotov wrote: "In order to
gain power in Yugoslavia the
Tito clique had to make them
selves out to be friends of the
USSR and to don the mask of
communists.
"The treacherous Tito clique
has converted itself into a gang
of hired murderers and spies in
the service of foreign imperial
ist governments.
"The time is not far off when
it will meet with the shameful
fate of dishonorable hirelings of
imperialist reaction."
He charged that "ruling cir
cles of the United States and
Great Britain are feverishly pre
paring for a new war."
U. N. Council in
Month's Recess
Lake Success, Dec. 21 UP)
The UN trusteeship council be
gan a month's recess today after
directing its chairman to ask Is
rael to transfer its government
offices back to Tel Aviv.
The Israeli cabinet met in Je
rusalem yesterday for the first
time sice Premier David Ben
Gurion moved government of
fices there from Tel Aviv in de
fiance of UN plans to interna
tionalize the Holy City.
The 1 2 - n a 1 1 o n trusteeship
council declared in a resolution
yesterday that transfer of Is
rael's government offices to Je
rusalem threatens to upset the
UN proposal for an international
regime over the Holy City.
It gave the job of negotiating;
with Israel to Council Chairman
Roger Garreau of France as it
concluded a five-session special
meeting to map plans for inter
nationalizing Jerusalem.
The council will meet again
in Geneva Jan. 19 to hear Gar
reau's report and resume its dis
cussions on Jerusalem.
Sherman Sees
'Continued from Page 1
Sherman gave the Soviet
fleet's known strength as three
old battleships, 14 cruisers, 110
destroyer types, and about 270
submarines.
In addition, he said, it in
cludes a force of motor torpedo
boats, submarine chasers, and
inshore patrol craft in peacetime
which exceeds the numerical
strength of equivalent types in
all other navies combined in
cluding the United States.
U. S. Carriers Better
"Our outstanding superiority
over the Russian fleet lies in our
carrier force," Sherman said.
"The maintenance of our car
rier force is essential to our un
interrupted use of vital sea com
munications. It is also essential
to naval support of the army
and the air force. It is the core
of the offensive power of the
fleet. It is the most mobile tac
tical air force in existence."
At present, the United States
has IS aircraft carriers in ac
tive service. In addition, it has
87 in "mothballs," including 62
small escort carriers. According
to available information, Russia
has no aircraft carriers.

Gen. Douglas MacArthur be put
in charge of all American inter

ed for the occupation of For

Senator Taft (R., Ohio) and
Wherry (R., Neb.) have been
calling for a broadening of com
mercial relations with Spain, i
move some lawmakers seem to
think would involve resumption
of full diplomatic relations with
Generalissimo Franco.
Vandenberg has made it clear
in the past that the republicans
haven't been consulted in ad
vance on some of these prob
lems. He has pointed out that
the bipartisan foreign policy
doesn't cover a very wide field,
from that standpoint.
Thirty pounds lighter than
when he left Washington in Oc
tober, the Michigan senator says
he feels fit. But he has been
weeks recovering from an oper
ation for removal of a part of a
lung and has been ordered to
take things easy.
Doctors have warned h i m
against working more than a
couple of hours at a time with
out taking at least a 30-minute
rest period.
Under the circumstances, Van

Public Hearing Dated to
Consider Office Building
The citv planning and zoning commission Tuesday night set
January 17 as the time for a public hearing on a zone change to
permit the establishment of an office building on the west side or.
South Commercial between Oak and Leslie.
Roy S. Ferris, the applicant for a change to a business zone,
said the building preferably
would be for medical and dental
offices.
On the same date will be a
hearing for Robert Seamstcr on
an application for a change on
15th street, just south of State,
to permit an apartment house.
The commission rejected the
application of O. E. Price for a
change at the northeast corner
of North Cottage and Center, to
a business zone, when the pro
test was made by the Salem
Woman's club, and Charles A.
Roblin.
Pending a revision of plans
action was delayed on applica
tion of W. A. Cladck relative to
property along Chemawa road.
just north of Highway 99E for
a low-cost housing develop
ment. He asked for approval of
the plat. He proposed lots 67 by
71 feet, which the commission
thought should be increased to
6000 square feet. It also advised
an increase in proposed street
width from 50 to 60 feet.
Cladek proposes to build 20
two-bedroom houses that would
sell, he believes, at from $6000
to $6300. j
The commission, at the sug
gestion' of W. W. Rosobraugh,
called upon the public for ideas
on revision of the zoning code.
A major revision is under con
sideration. This is influenced to
some degree by proposals of the
state capitol commission for re
strictions in the capitol area.
Rosebraugh, chairman of a spe
cial committee on the subject,
requests that persons having
suggestions submit them in writ
ing to him or to the recorder at
City hall.
Taken under advisement was
an application by E. W. Acklin
for the development of vacant
property into an apartment pro
ject on North Church street at
Mill creek.
On the request of H. W. Quis
tad the commission will re

War Opposed
( Continued from Page 1)
And to make that freedom
prevail, those who come after
them may have to stand up, and
go down, the same way if, God
forbid, the free world should
ever again be challenged by
anti-democratic forces.
''For there is one thing we
never will accept, and that is
totalitarian slavery."
President Truman said that
"If man could achieve self gov
ernment and kinship with his
God throughout the world, peace
would not tremble in the con
stant dread of war."
"Mankind is exhausted from
the ordeal of conflict, "' Mr. Tru
man went on. "All men are sick
of blood-letting and hunger, and
weary of the troubles suffered
for so many years. If we could '
mobilize world opinion among
all men who walk the earth,
there would never be another
war.
Free and Captive
'This we can not do alone.
For the earth is deeply divided
between free and captive peo
ples. There is no appeal to the
brotherhood of men who live in
daily fear of the concentration
camp. . . ."
The president said that by gen
erous sharing of material goods
the United States has restored
to many peoples faith in them
selves, in freedom, and in cer
tain triumph of confidence ovei
fear. He added:
"Just as long as we continue
to face our world responsibilities
with the courage and realism we
have already shown, we shall
deserve the right to hope and
work for lasting peace."
The president said that social
progress must not be forgotten
in the search for peace and se
curity. Entertainment Cancelled The
planned Bethel school entertain
ment has been cancelled due to
the illness of the teacher, Mrs.
Margaret Polanski, who has in
