Bernards, pastor of St. Joseph's Catholic church, was delightfully surprised Thursday night when his parish ioners presented him with a check for $1530.60, which will pay his way on a trip to Rome for the special Holy Year cele bration. I The gift was sponsored by St. Monica's Altar society of the church, and was presented as part of a program at St. Joseph's hall by Father O'Callaghan, as sistant pastor of the church. The gift committee was Mrs. George Hemann, Mrs. Henry Kropp, Mrs. Patrick Mejstrik and Mrs. Charles Schmitz. Following the program a so cial and musical program was given by students of Sacred Heart academy. About 250 per sons attended. Subpoenas (Continued from Page 1) The affidavit was distributed to newspaper offices by Latti more's attorneys last night. Never Met Lattimore In it, Dr. Dodd said she was expelled from the communist party in 1948 because she did not agree with certain of its pol icies. She added: "I have never met Owen Lat timore. I never heard of him until the present controversy. In all my association with the com munist party I never heard his name mentioned by party lead ers or friends of the party as a party member or friend of the party. McCarthy has urged that the committee dig behind Budenz's story. McCarthy noted that Budenz. a tormer communist, testified that his information about Lat timore came from men he said were high in the party Earl Browder, Frederick Vanderbilt Field and Jack Stachel. I think the investigating committee ought to subpoena tliose men and get their story,' McCarthy told reporters. Attor neys for Lattimore already had asked that Field be subpoenaed his testimony could be matched against Budenz's. McCarthy has accused Latti more, far eastern affairs expert, of being Russia's top spy in this country. Denied by Official Budenz said on the witness stand yesterday that McCarthy's accusation on that score was not technically accurate. But he did back up the senator's contention that the communists exercised disciplinary power over Latti more. A former high-ranking army intelligence orticer followed Bu denz to the stand and bluntly disputed that Lattimore was a communist. Lattimore, a Johns Hopkins university professor, has flatlv denied McCarthy's charges against him. He withheld com ment on Budenz's testimoy, but is expected to make a formal reply at a public hearing next week. The inquiry into McCarthy's assertions that communists and fellow travelers have infested the stale department is being handled by a senate foreign re lations subcommittee. Budenz said that Browder. former head of the communist party in the United States, "re ferred to Lattimore as a commu nist." In New York, Browder renlied that he never made any such reference to Lattimore, and added: "I don't think I ever discussed Mr. Lattimore in my life with anyone." Also in New York, Field put out a statement calling Budenz's accusations against him "a shameless and slanderous lie." Budenz testified that he knew Field as a communist leader and a Soviet agent. He also said Field was so closely associated with Lattimore that they called rJ WARNING 8 Use Miller's Friend Cold Fur Storage Free Bonded Messenger! 1 r ""7, 1 111 : ( (SENATOR) Capital Journal, SalenCOreRon, aaMaanaal Rev. T. J. Bernards, pastor of St. Joseph's Catholic church left, will attend the Holy Year celebration in Rome. His parishioners Thursday night surprised him with a gift of $1530.60. The presentation was made by Father O'Callaghan, right, assistant pastor of the church. Yugoslavia (Continued from Page 1) Kosanovic said any solution to the Trieste problem must be "mutually advantageous" to both Italy and Yugoslavia. Violations Charged Charging the United States, Britain and France with "gross ly violating" provisions of the Italian peace treaty designed to make Trieste a free territory un der United Nations supervision a Soviet note insisted on "liqui dation of the illegal Anglo-Am erican naval base" it said had been established in the port city. The note was handed here last night to diplomats of the U. S., Britain and France by Deputy Foreign Minister Andrei Gromy- ko. Published by the Soviet news agency Tass, it charged Trieste "has been converted . . into a military springboard oc cupied by the armed forces of the United States and Britain, which constitutes a threat to the peace and security of Europe." (In Washington, American of ficials said the U. S. and Britain were within their legal rights in keeping troops in Trieste until the free territory is established They asserted Russia was chief ly responsible for the delay in setting up the territory because, they charged, the Soviets would not agree on a governor to ad minister the area under a Unit ed Nations mandate.) Alarm at State House Fire equipment was rushed to the State House Friday morning. Firemen reported that a short circuit occurred in the emer gency system, causing the alarm to sound, Bridge Damages Paid Re ceived by the Marion county court Friday was a $149.97 check from the National Farm ers Union Automobile and Cas ualty company for damage to a bridge over the Abaqua. The damage to the bridge occurred when an International 1948 truck of Bielenbcrg Bros, went through the bridge December 28, 1949. The bridge, known as Gal loway bridge, is the second covered bridge over the Aba qua located about seven miles above Silverton just east of the Brier Nob district. each other By their first names. Stachel, named by Budenz as another source of his informa tion about Lattimore, was re ported by communist party headquarters in New York to be convalescing from a heart at tack and unavailable for com ment. Stachel is one of the 11 top communist leaders recently convicted of conspiring to over throw the government by force. Budenz, in his testimony, had suggested getting subpoenas for Field, Browder and Stachel. Mc Carthy said that was a good idea. 2E Announcing! 14st May 22 lhru June 4 NIGHTLY 8:30 MATS., 2:30 May 28; June 3 and 4 PORTLAND Prices All Performances ARENA $1.JC-$2.50-$3-$3.60 (Incl.Tax) LET THE V w Mfe m mm m u m. r------------------T Portland lee Arena. 1 ''" ; M.r.h.n si.

SCJ Friday, April 21, 1950 5 (Continued from Page 1) "In reply to the United States government's note of April 18, 1950, the USSR government considers it necessary to state the following: "As already reported in the note of the Soviet government of April 11, the American aircraft which violated south of Lepaya, Latvia, the Soviet frontier, ac cording to verified date was a four-motored military aircraft B-29 Flying Fortress (sic), which not only failed to obey the demand of the Soviet fighter planes to follow them and land at an aerodrome but opened fire on the Soviet planes. "After the leading Soviet fighter aircraft had been com pelled to fire in reply, the Amer ican aircraft turned in the di rection of the sea and disappear ed. "These are the facts establish ed by proper verification." Czech Chicago (Continued from Page 1) It said the U. S. was com pelled to review the scope of the activities of Czech estab lishments in the U. S., and as "an immediate result" of the review the Chicago consulate general must close by May 1. The consulates normally han dle trade, business and travel matters. Other Consulates Czechoslovakia also has con sulates in New York City, Cleveland, Philadelphia and Pittsburgh.

Action against their circulation also has been under consideration by the state department because of the USIS shutdown. The note was a 1,000 word. hard-hitting attack on the Czech action. It charged that the com munist regime is "obliged to seek excuses" for an attempt to "isolate the Czechoslovak people from the outer world" along the same lines followed by other communist-dominated countries of eastern Europe."
