Snubbed Ejected and dejected members of the Japanese
Diet walk out of Boston's City Hall after the city council
voted to bar them from observing council sessions. The
ban was approved by a 11 to 8 vote after one councilman
proposed "Feed them, but don't educate them." The Diet
members are visiting the United States to see "democracy
in action" as guests of the government. But the Massachu
setts legislature immediately invited the Japanese to visit
their sessions. (Acme Telephoto)',

Benson Ford, grandson of
Henry Ford, vice president-general
manager of the Lincoln
Mercury division of Ford Motor
company, will address a brother
hood week dinner audience
Tuesday, February 21, in Mult
nomah hotel's grand ballroom in
Portland.
This announcement was re
leased today by Dr. Morgan S.
Odell, general chairman for
Portland's observance of Broth
erhood week. The dinner for
Mr. Ford, added Odell, is spon
sored by the National Confer
ence of Christians and Jews on
whose national speakers' bureau
Ford serves.
A feature of the dinner, stated
Odell, will be the presentation
of an award, prepared by the
conference's national awards

ton, Oregon chapter's first chair
man. Mr. MacNaughton was
personally selected for this early
post of leadership by the late
Newton D. Baker, one of the con
ference's founders and national
co-chairmen.
From the record of that early
day of NCCJ beginnings here is
found this statement:
There was evidence in Port
land of a quite active propa
ganda of the Silver Shirts, of
whom there are said to be about
600 in the city."
Dr. Odell stated that he would
shortly have an announcement
as to the personnel of the dinner
committee.
East Salem School Pupils
Remain Home During Week
East Salem, Feb. 2 Not every year do the school children
have their daily schedules, that to them sometimes seem monot
onous, broken into by vacation days at times when there are no
special crops to be harvested and the out of doors just ngnt ior
play, as it has been during the month of January. If it is not
blocked roads it is power lauuref-
on some of the main lines that
supplies the electric current
which runs the automatic oil
furnaces, as it did at Swegle and
Auburn schools Tuesday.
Teachers at the three East Sa
lem schools reported the follow
ing percentage of attendance on
both Monday and Tuesday morn
ings; Middle Grove, 49 absent,
27 from an enrollment of 76
present; Swegle, about one-third
present, and Auburn, about half
absent.
Special activities are being
conducted when school is in ses
sion. On Tuesday of last week
at 9 o'clock Karl Thelen, instru
mental music director in the
Salem schools conducted a band
concert at Middle Grove school
for 40 minutes, with 40 members
of the Parish junior high school
playing. All types of instru
ments were played with each
one being explained to the chil
dren, and the part each takes
in the band demonstrated. The
school has only a small orches
tra and Mr. Thelen hopes to
have more interest.
The fifth and sixth grades of
Middle Grove entered a contest
on "How Your Town Grew,"
sponsored by the Weekly Read
er. Winnrs were to receive two
Weekly Headers written
Braille. They wrote on "How
Salem Grew," and were win
ners, receiving the Braille Week
ly Readers.
The February meeting of the
Mothers club of Middle Grove
was postponed until February
14th.
Middle Grove school will close
their March of Dimes drive this
week having over $15 to date,
George Darling was in charge
of the drive.
Swegle A paper drive is be
ing introduced at the school with
a contest' being held between the
different rooms and a prize of
fered for the most pounds col
lected. Newspapers should be
tied in bundles separate from the
magazine bundles. The drive
will close as soon as the toads
are open so the buyer may col
lect, perhaps this week. The
drive began January 18.
Swegle school children like
the other schools are using the
cards for collecting "March
Dimes" funds and they will con
tinue the drive.
The three newest pupils at
Swegle school are Carolyn Par
sons and George Parsons of 2075
Vahn avenue and Frank Short of
3855 Sunnyview avenue, second
and sixth grades.
New equipment at Swegle
school includes a new office file
and 75 new library books, some
for each grade.
Auburn school pupils have had
no serious epidemics of conta
gious diseases this year to date,
but now have two cases of
mumps, Jimmy and Lorene Mar
tin.
Auburn school pupils will also
continue their "March of Dimes'
drive until the county drive is
closed.

New York, Feb. 2 W The
N. Y. Times said Monday that
President Truman has offered
the government's top scientific
job chairmanship of the search
and development board in the
department of defense to Wil
liam Webster of Boston.
Webster is a vice president of
the New England Electric Sys
tem. He is 49 years old, a grad
uate of the U. S. Naval academy
and former chairman of the de
fense department's military liai
son committee with the atomic
energy commission.
The Times reported in a Wash
ington dispatch by James Res-
ton that the post had been of
fered to Webster.
Webster, the story said.
"would be largely responsible
for preparing an integrated mil
itary research and development
program so that weapons such
as the new hydrogen bomb
would take their proper place in
a well-balanced defense policy.'
Work of the research and de
velopment board has been su
pervised since Nov. 3, 1949, by
Dr. Robert F. Rinehart as dep
uty chairman. Dr. Vannevar
Bush was chairman from 1947 to
1948. He was succeeded by Dr.
Karl T. Compton, former presi
dent of Massachusetts Institute
of Technology, from 1948 until
Nov. 3, 1949.
