A member of the organization (right) paints the group's insignia on the tail of one of the gliders. With Russian approval and in direct contradiction of the four-power law against German glider training, 20 glider trainees are using the shop as a headquarters. Old gliders are being repaired and new ones are being built at Babelsberg. Glider pilots trained after the first World War provided Hitler's Luftwaffe with its trained men. (AP Wirephoto) WANTS TO WED FOR LOVE Beauty Asks to Stay in U. S. To Avoid Planned Marriage Tulsa. Okla.. April 13 (IP) A Bolivian beauty who fears mar riage to a man "1 can never love" begged immigration officers for permission to stay in the United States. Mireya Urguidi, 22, pleaded yesterday with naturalization chief J. C. Stewart to extend her six-months visitor's visa. The permit expires in June. She says a return to South America would mean marrying her father's friend a man twice her age to whom she has been betrothed since birth. She did not give their names. She told in a soft accent, her dark eyes often tearful, of a hur ried departure from her Cocha bamba, Bolivia, home in the midst of wedding preparations. "I had told my father many times that I respected the man he had chosen for my husband, but that I didn't love him," Mi reya said. "My father wouldn't listen to me because it is the accepted custom of our family for the fa ther to choose husbands for the daughters. "I even pleaded with the man, who is a wealthy diplomat, to release me from our engagement, but he refused and said it could not be broken. He said I would have to marry him." Mireya's mother, "more Inter ested in my happiness than my marriage," gave her money to come to this country. The Ame rican consul suggested the home of an acquaintance in Tulsa. "But my father will never for give men and he says I cannot come home unless I marry his friend," the girl told Stewart. Mireya said she was fearful her father may force her to re turn and she Implored reporters to keep the name of her home town out of the newspapers. Stewart suggested - she enter the University of Tulsa, although already a college graduate, in order to obtain a student's visa for the duration of enrollment. The immigration officer cau tioned against a marriage of con venience so she could stay in the United States. 'Oh, no!" Mireya shook her head. "I would only marry for love. A marriage of convenience is what I am trying to escape." U. 5. Arms Unloading Too Early for Reds Naples, Italy, April 13 U.R) The first American arms ship ment to Italy was unloaded be fore dawn Wednesday and start ed on its way to army depots before the communists could make good on their threat to stop it. The communists called a gen eral strike throughout Naples to protest the shipment but the Binaggio Killing Order Reported St. Louis, April 13 U.R The St. Louis Post-Dispatch said to day that the assassination of Charles Binaggio, Kansas City democratic leader, was ordered two weeks ago during a con ference of gangsters and gam biers at the Hyde Park Gam bling Club In Venice, 111. In a copyrighted story by Crime Reporter Theodore C. Link, the newspaper said Binag gio was one of three politicians whose "elimination" was dis cussed at the conference. The story said the first man on the gangsters' list was "i major political figure," the sec ond was Binaggio and the third was a minor politician who had a voice in Gov. Forrest Smith's appointments to the St.-Louis board of police commissioners. Plans to kill the first vic tim were dropped .because he was "too big," the story said. Binaggio's name was the only one left after they decided the minor politician had not handled any money for the governor's 1948 campaign.

Man-Without-a-Country to Marry Willamina Woman By WILLIAM WARREN Forty-five-year-old Hugo Visnapu told Gov. Douglas McKay Wednesday that he is a man without a country. Laws concerning displaced persons being what they are, Vis napu told McCay, he will have no alternative after July 16 but to "seek domicile on another planet." His impending marriage toS another former Estonian, Linda Sider of Willamina, Ore., is threatened by the complicated situation in which he finds him self, Visnapu said. He told the governor: "I need a home country. I want to work in order to have what every man has." Visnapu, Estonian-born cream ery plastics specialist, was call ed to Ireland by that, country's government nearly two years ago. He was in a DP camp in Germany at the time and was wanted in Ireland for his techni cal assistance in the plasticsJ field. The papers enabling him to leave Germany were to expire July 16 of this year. But a subsequent change in DP regu lations barred his return to Ger many. Visnapu completed his Ireland assignment several months ago, got a temporary visa to Ameri ca and boarded a liner for the United States with round-trip tickets in his pocket. He was on his way to see his finance who had bought a farm near Willamina, He hoped to make his home here. But the U.S. immigration service inform ed him his visa could not be altered or supplemented and he would have to return to Ireland by May 16. ' His finance summed up Vis- napu's dilemma: "Germany doesn't want him because the Estonian DP quota to the United States is exhaust ed for 100 years. He can't stay here after May 16. He would be ejected from Ireland July 16. And he is forbidden to go any where when he has to leave Ireland." City to Help in Defense Set-up Mayor Robert L. Elfstrom and other city officials will confer in the next few days on selection of a supervisor for Salem's co operation in 4he Oregon air raid warning and ground observation organization. Governor Douglas McKay has written all Oregon mayors ask ing the cooperation of the cities and towns in the state network, and his letter reached Mayor Elfstrom Wednesday. In addition to local supervisors the governor suggests location of observation posts in all commu nities. A force of 6000 volunteer workers, 300 observation posts, four key warning points, and a filter center in Portland will be included in the Oregon set-up under the national reactivation of civilian defense requested by Louis A. Johnson, secretary of defense.
