Pinson Listed
(Continued from Page 1)
Two shifts of officers were
held on duty as prowl car forces
were doubled. Loaded rifles
were carried in each of the cars
as officers scoured the city in
the fruitless search.
After daybreak, plain clothes
men, detailed to watch the resi
dence listed by the tipster, went
into the suspected house. But
that effort failed to confirm in
formation given police
Although officers were inclin
ed to discount the possibility that
Pinson would return to 6alem
thev carefully cheeked every de
tail on the case in the hope of
ending the search which is now
in its ninth month.
Police Chief Warren pointed
out that prisoners released by the
penitentiary would be able to
identify Pinson easily, iie ex
plained that this fact would be
a strong factor in keeping the
gunman away from Salem.
Yet, there was a possibility
that Pinson, whose bank-robbing
gang in Montana was smashed by
officers there, might have decid
ed to rebuild forces with for
mer Oregon penitentiary in
mates. Another possibility was
that Pinson might have hoped to
stage a prison break to free as
sociates. Latest reports from the FBI
have listed Pinson as dangerous
and heavily armed. He was sen
tenced to the prison in Salem for
the murder of a state patrolman
at The Dalles.
Benson, who escaped with him
on Memorial day, was recaptur
ed in Ohio and returned to the
pentitentiary. He contended that
Pinson died of wounds received
in his escape, but he was never
able to substantiate his story.
Sanders Pleads Innocent A
plea of innocent was entered
Saturday by Charles Sanders,
operator of the Deluxe Serv Self
laundry at 345 Jefferson street,
when he was arraigned in dis
trict court on a charge of point
ing a rifle at another person.
The complaint against Sanders
was filed by Floyd F Schaeffer,
Jr. Sanders posted $250 bail on
the charge and a hearing date
was set for March 24.

Run for Mayor
(Continued from Pace 1)
At the national convention of
Credit Women s Breaktast clubs
held in Boston last year she was
perfect attendance chuirman. and
at the national convention in
Banff in 1948 was attendance
chairman.
The move in behalf of Mrs.
Kayser started modestly among
business associates, and at first
she said "Phooie" to the idea.
But the report got out and the
move began to snowball. Among
those who offered encourage
ment, it is reported, were many
who offered their support.
So far announced as candi
dates for mayor are Alfred
Loucks and Walter Musgrave,
and a possible candidate is Har
ry V. Collins.
So far announced as candi
dates for mayor are Alfred
Loucks and Walter Musgrave.
Harry V. Collins, who retired as
district manager of the tele
phone company in this area, will
not be a candidate for mayor.
Collins, whose candidacy for
mayor has been rumored, ad
mitted that he had given the
proposal considerable thought
but felt that his commitments
were too many to engage in the
mayoralty campaign at this
time.
'I plan to leave soon for Cali
fornia for a six weeks rest," he
said, "and when I return I will
have plenty to do as county
chairman of the republican cen
tral committee. Therefore I will
not be a candidate for mayor in
the forthcoming campaign.

"You can't have an expanded
economy by soaking the rich"
he said. It shouldn t be a crime
to make money. They should
pay their just taxes but you
cannot create new wealth if you
restrict expansion and develop
ment of business.
Defense Essential
The senator said that he would
vote for every dollar needed for
adequate defense of this coun
try. 'We can't take a chance with
weakened defenses for even one
hour" he said, "with the Soviet
government determined to gain
control of the world."
But he added that he would
not vote for a single dollar for
waste in the military establish-
ment, and pointed to his pro
posal, made three and one-half
years ago to establish a single
procurement division to replace
the three now in existence.
'I tried' to get this proposal
the unification bill passed
during the first session of this
congress," he said. "The boys in
the senate who opposed me told
me they thought it was a fine
idea but that it should wait for a
few years. We did get a single ac
counting system, twin of the
procurement plan, in the bill and
that was a material gain for
economy.
Coal Strike. Crisis -
In closing his talk Senator
Morse expressed favor of a fact
finding committee of experts to
study the entire coal situation
"I will fight any proposal of
nationalization of coal mines" he
said, "but the coal industry is
vital to the national interest.
We should have all the facts con
cerning it and then take such
steps in congress as are neces
sary to eliminate the present
problems in the industry.
He advocated that welfare
funds of the coal miners and all
other unions should be under
the supervision of the govern
ment, in order that no member
of the welfare board could mis
appropriate the funds.
"If our national banks are
under national supervision, these
welfare funds should be under
this supervision also," he con
cluded.
Government bureaucracy was
the target in a resolution adop
ted unanimously by the hop
growers Friday afternoon.
The resolution voiced opposi
tion to the Havana charter of
the proposed international trade
organization, promoted by the
state department.
The charter, the resolution
points out, proposes to remove
trade policies from congress and
place them in control of outside
agencies.
At the annual banquet of the
organization Friday night in the
Crystal Gardens, Robert F. Ma
guire, Portland attorney who
served as one of the judges in
the war crimes trials in Ger
many, told the convention that
there is "hope for a new Ger
many."
"The underground during the
war in Germany was far larger
than most people realize," Ma-
guirc said. "It included men
and women of all types, high
and low, and included many of
the highest men in the army.
They were all opposed to the
Hitler regime."
Walter Leth of Monmouth
was toastmaster, introduced by
Frank Kennedy, Polk county
hop grower.
Stole 200 Pound Safe
But Loot Only $2.50
Salem detectives had a perfect
case to prove that crime doesn't
pay Saturday even though they
were still looking for the crim
inals. Safe men broke ino the West
Salem Fuel company at 1525
Edgcwater street in West Salem
Friday night or Saturday morn
ing and carted off a 200-pound
strong box.
Obviously, the criminals hoped
to open the box at their own
convenience at a hideaway.
After all that work, detec
tivea pointed out, the men will
find about $2.90 in small change.

County Selects Old Route
For New Silverton Road
One of Marion county's most controversial issues of the past
year, that of routing the new highway from Salem to Silver
ton, was settled by the county court Friday. With the exception
of the final 400 or 500 yards into Silverton, the highway will
follow its present route, the court decided.
The county had acquired op-S
tion on a strip ot land which
would have run the highway
south of its present route. How
ever, the court feels that re
building the road over its pres
ent route would be more eco
nomical. Judge Grant Murphj said that
by using the same route as the
present road, the county will bo
able- to secure federal aid on
the project. Had the more south
ern route been used for the new
highway, the government could
not offer financial aid because
that route would require con
struction of a new D'idge over
Pudding river and an overhead
crossing which the government
felt was not practical
The road will be re-routed on
the final quarter of mile or so
goirg into Silverton in order to
bypass the hazardous railroad
crossing near the city limits.
The new highway will cross
the railroad at about the same
point, but the often-criticized
S" curve will be eliminated
On the present route, the road
makes a sharp turn on either
side of the railway.
While approximately $425,000
has been allocated for the new
highway, the cost is not expect
ed to exceed $200,000, Murphy
said The difference is in the
economy of retaining the pres
ent route, he said.
Bids will probably be opened
for the 3',4-mile project about
July 1, and much of the work
is expected to be completed this
year.
Hearing Set
(Continued from Page 1)
Issuance of the restraining or
der under the national emer
gency provisions of the Taft-
Hartley law came just after
Judge Keech had signed anoth
er order forbidding Lewis and
the United Mine workers to
maintain demands for contract
provisions which the court said
may be illegal.
Resuming of Mining
The order provides for re
sumption of mining as "custom
arily scheduled."
That would be the normal
five-day week with any slow
down, or such a three-day week
as Lewis has been enforcing in
the mines, forbidden.
There was no immediate re-
action from the UMW on either
court order.
A spokesman at the union
headquarters said only:
"We're waiting to hear from
Mr. Lewis."
The temporary restraining or
der covers four main points:
these would enjoin the union
against continuing the strike
"in whole or in part:" direct the
union to order the workers to
cease their strike immediately;
enjoin both sides against en
couraging or causing lockouts,
strikes or work stoppages; and
order the UMW and the operat
ors to engage in free collec
tive bargaining in good faith for
tho purpose of resolving the dis
pute.
Double-Barrelled Order
Inclusion of the operators in
the bargaining and lockout pro
visions made the order a double
barreled one.
Lewis, the union, and all its
"appropriate officers" are di
rected to "forthwith instruct.
and take all appropriate action
as may be necessary" to see that
the court s orders are carried
out.
Assistant Attorney General
H. Graham Morrison applied to
Federal Judge Richmond B.
Keech for an emergency injunc
tion as provided for in the Taft
Hartley act when the national
health and safety is threatened.
The application followed right
on the heels of another injunc
tion order signed by .Tudge
Keech directing Lewis to drop
four major demands in his ne
gotiations. Judge Keech said there is a
probability that these demands
arc "unfair labor practices."
The injunction already sign
ed restrains John L. Lewis and
his United Mine Workers from
insisting on those bargaining
points until such time as the na
tional labor relations board can
rule on whether they actually
are unfair labor practices.
