Sixth Army Chief
(Continued rrom Page l)
Wedemeyer talking about
China pointed out "There are
450,000,000 people and they
have to import food into China
from Burma and Siam to feed
them." Then he reminded that
most of the farming must be
done in the valleys even though
they have step-ups on the moun
tains where some food is raised
and that vast areas of the land
are unproductive.
Tn China, the general recall
ed, "Eighty per cent of the peo
ple can not read nor write,"
adding "In Formosa, which was
placed under Japanese control
in 1895, 80 per cent of the
people can read and write."
China has a monument to Gen
Wedemeyer he has never seen
it but has seen pictures of it.
The monument is not for his
military exploits but for "Wede
meyer, the Rain Maker" and
that is just what the inscrip
tion in Chinese characters say.
Asked about the monument
the general smiled slowly and
began the story by saying:
Rain Maker Monument
"I was making a trip through
Kansu province, located near
outer Mongolia.' The capital of
the province is Lanchow and
riding along with me was the
governor. We were en route to
visit the tomb of Genghis Khan
and in the front seat of the auto
mobile was a member of my
staff who had a keen sense of
humor."
Continuing, Wedemeyer recall
ed that the staff member put his
sense of humor into play when
the governor told of the serious
drouth that, unless rain came.
would bring death to hundreds
of thousands from famine. The
staff member came forth with a
statement that would lead the
governor to believe the general
might make it rain.
The sun was shining brightly.
The general did not know exact
Iy how to deny it. So they pro
ceeded on to the tomb. The
wreath was placed here the
general recalled that a descend
ant of Khan was present and
much impressed with the cere
mony and invited him to share
the feast following the visit to
the tomb.
Troop Inspection
Wedemeyer continued on his
trip which was to include the
inspection of 28,000 Chinese
troops drawn up in such a long
line that the inspection was
made in a jeep.
As the inspection got under
way the general noted black
clouds coming over the moun
tain that could mean only one
thing, rain. Half way through
the inspection rain began com
ihg down in torrents and it
continued for two or three days
weaemeyer became the "rain
maker" of the providence. The
monument followed.
The Philippines and Europe
ar included in Wedemeyer's
overseas service along with
China and he also attended the
German war college. Of these
experiences he says:
"Any knowledge or experi
ence that I have had in China
or any part of the world I
would gladly put at the dispos
al of my government."
Two months as a first lieuten
ant at Fort Lewis a number of
years ago was Wedemeyer's only
previous contact with the north
west. However, despite the un
predictable weather on this visit

he contends that he likes the
northwest and thinks it is a
lovely part of the country.
The general has known per
sons from Oregon well though,
and one of them is Oregon's
adjutant general, Maj. Gen.
Thomas E. Rilea. The two re
call that the last time they met
prior to a recent visit at the
Presidio in San Francisco was
in New Guinea during the war.
Orders to Gen. Rilea from
Gen. Douglas MacArthur were
'Gen. Wedemeyer is coming on
a visit. Look after him." Rilea
took great care to explain to the
visiting general on his arrival
that things were not good and
they had been living on jungle
rations, which he was "afraid
Gen. Wedemeyer would also
have to eat." It brought no com
plaint from Wedemeyer, but the
army moved faster than Rilea
anticipated. The first night, to
the surprise of both generals,
they had a steak for dinner the
outfit's first steak. The next
day after a trip to the battle
area they returned to again find
no jungle rations. This time it
was turkey.
There is a Salem interest for
the general right now.- It's the
armory to be built here for the
organized reserve corps and both
he and Brig. Gen. Robert A. Mc
clure, commander of the north
ern military suarea, agree that
Salem gets the armory because
of Its fine reserve groups and
me city's enthusiasm and interest
in the reserves.
In the general's party from
tne presidio is a navy man, Capt,
R. W. Berry, naval aide to Wede
meyer, who at one time knew
Oregon's former congressman,
tne late James Mott. One of Ber
ry s iormer assignments was
with the late James Forreslal
and Forrestal and Mott were
friends.
Others from the presidio are
Col. W. R. Woodard, G-4 for
Sixth Army; Col. James Note
stein, PIO for Sixth Army and
Col. L. H. Slocum, G-3 for Sixth
Army.
Coal Operators
(Continued from Page 1)
But Senator Elbert D. Thomas
(D-Utah), the committee chair
man, and Humphrey (D-Minn.)
disagreed. They said it did not
necessarily mean there would be
no action at some time in the
future.
The motion to postpone ac
tion indefinitely was offered by
Humphrey as a substitute to a
motion by Senator Donnell
(R-Mo.) that the committee ap
prove the resolution.
Humphrey argued that action
should be deferred because "ne
gotiations are underway" look
ing toward a settlement of the
coal dispute.
Maneuvers toward that pos
sibility are underway. Their re
sults may be to get soft coal
workers back to work, at least
part time, and perhaps help

More Pumpkin Papers
plicate Dead Official
Washington, Jan. 27 VP) Producing a fresh sheaf of docu
ments from Whittaker Chambers, Rep. Nixon (R., Calif.), today
demanded a new house investigation into communist spy activities.
Nixon quoted Chambers an
espionage ring in the pre-war j?
vears as saying he got the eight
new documents from the late
Harry Dexter White, former as
sistant secretary of the treasury.
White died in 1948, a short
time after denying to the house
un-American activities commit
tee that he had ever passed on
confidential data to Chambers.
Copies which Nixon showed the
house yesterday dealt with such
things as U.S. policy toward Ja
pan and the assignment of an
American navy captain to Eng
land in 1938 as a "secret liaison
man." '
Nixon said that on the basis
of these papers he will Insist
that the house committee, of
which he is a member, resume
the spy inquiry it suspended
during the two perjury trials of
Alger Hiss, former state depart
ment official.
Hiss was convicted last Satur
day and was sentenced to five
years imprisonment. He had de
nied to a grand jury that he
gave secret government docu
ments to Chambers.
Nixon told newsmen there
may have been justification for
not pursuing the committee in
quiry while the Hiss case was
in the courts, but added that this
justification no longer exists.
In a one-hour speech in the
house yesterday, Nixon de
nounced the administration's at
titude in the case and said the
justice department once had
considered prosecuting Cham
bers instead of Hiss.
Had that course been fol
lowed, he said, the effect would
have been to ruin any case
against Hiss and others because
their principal accuser would
have been "an indicted perjur-
Nixon also claimed that Presi
dent Truman had access to a se
cret memorandum dated Nov.
25, 1945, saying the Soviets had
an agent in this country "who
was an assistant" to Edward R.
Stettinius, then assistant secre
tary of state.
Heaviest Snow
(Continued from Pnge 1)
For those still interested in
"snow statistics" it is reported
that there has been snow on 24
of the 27 days of January to
date, the only three days so far
missing some kind of a snow fall
being January 20, 21 and 22
the rain spell that brought up
the rivers.
Colder temperatures tonight
are expected to send the mer
cury sliding down to 20 degrees
meaning icy and slippery
pavements tomorrow morn
ing plus the nuisance of piled-up
snow.
Even as the snow continued to
fall the Portland weather bur
eau stated the outlook was for a
gradual warming up during the
next three or four days.
Portland and all northwestern
Oregon was caught in the new
snow storm with rain reported
in the Eugene area as well as
along the coast. The Salem sec
tion was in on the new winter
blast moving in from the north,
Portland reporting lower tem
peratures than were recorded
here.
Later reports from sections
south in the valley stated
the rain was turning to heavy
snow.
Traffic to the north of Salem
was greatly hampered by the
snow and storm that continued
throughout the morning.
A total of 152 inches of snow
was listed on the Santiam pass
this morning, 9 inches of it new.
The road was clear at the pass.
Council Postponed The La
dies' council of the Liberty
Christian Church of Christ has
postponed its meeting due to the
weather.

in detail, but generally covered
the same ground, stating spe
cifically that the American arms
gift is "designed to promote the
integrated defense of the North
Atlantic area."
Right to Transfer
The text of the agreements
made public after the signing
showed that Great Britain won
the right to transfer the Ameri
can weapons to other areas if she
replaced them in the western
European arms pool.
The British pact, which had
bogged down on that point for
months, set the tnnn for tlio oth

mat "economic recovery is es
sential to international peace
and security must be given clear
priority."

ment, materials, services or
