It was a good parade, and the memory of it will be cherished by the children who took part and by their parents and friends who viewed it. Health Building (Continued from Page 1) Murphy said that doctors and the health department's board of directors agree that approxi mately 6000 square feet of space would be needed for adequate headquarters for the health de partmont. 'A building of that size would cost about $75,000," figured Murphy. The United States govern ment has made a practice of matching 50 per cent of the amount raised by counties for hospital construction purposes. Thus, if Marlon county was to provide $50,000, the government would probably provide $25,- 000 toward a $75,000 building. 'Members of the county court agree that a new building Is needed," Murphy said. "The health department's board of di rectors agree that a new build ing is needed. Now if we can get some Indication from inter ested groups or individuals on whether or not they've interest ed in a new health building, we will know whether or not to go ahead and put the measure on the ballot."

Car Looter A tire, wheel and tube, valued at $25, was reported to Salem police as having been stolen from a vehicle parked on the Loder used car lot. , Units of Guard (Continued from Page 1) The public information offic er for the Oregon military dis trict said many army reserve units in the state might be af fected, although no orders had been received. Major Paul F. Mielly listed larger Oregon units that would come under the non-divisional classification. They include the 409th quar termaster battalion and one bat talion of the 369th boat and shore regiment at Salem; the 6310th logistical unit at Med- ford, including members from Klamath Falls; 382nd quarter master battalion, Medford; 426th transportation truck battalion or Eugene.

Californians in Session Today California delegates to the In ternational Association of Machi nists convention which opens Monday in Salem went into a preliminary meeting Friday at the Marion hotel. 1 The convention, to be attended by representatives from unions in 11 western states, will be opened at the Labor temple Monday at 10 a. m. with the Rev.

In the afternoon session, Gov ernor Douglas McKay or a repre sentative from his office is scheduled to address the group The convention will be held Monday through Wednesday. Preliminary meetings of the California group Friday at the Marion hotel were expected to be in preparation for regular business sessions of the conven tion. Armed Forces (Continued from Page 1) Senate committee approval of the two bills was unanimous. In the house group, Rep. Harry L. Towe (R., N. J.) cast a lone vote against them. He said he would oppose them until they (defense officials) say what they are go ing to do." Brig. Gen. C. V. R. Schuyler, chief of the army's planning branch told the house committee the call for more fighting men was decided upon by the joint chiefs of staff. He said the joint chiefs also agreed that possible developments in Korea or else where could mean a further "up ward revision" on short notice. Camps to be Re-Opened He added that there are ten tative plans for reopening some World War II army camps, but he did not say which ones. Under the present draft law, only men 19 through 25 are sub ject to induction and veterans of the past war are exempt except in cases of men who served less than three months. Schuyler said the army can equip all the men it needs for training purposes, but will have to buy "in some categories" to make them ready for battle, Program Ready The fighting services already had their mobilization program in high gear to provide reinforce ments for the hard-pressed American forces in Korea. The marines yesterday called up all their organized reserve ground units 47,000 officers and men while the army alert ed an undisclosed number of regular units for far eastern duty, and the navy ordered "sev eral" of its organized air reserve squadrons back on active duty immediately. An early call for national guard units also was ex pected momentarily.

Salem, Oregon. Friday, July 21, 19505 War Map Heavy dark arrows show main North Korean drives against Taejon from which U. S. troops are withdraw ing according to front line dispatches. However, Gen. Douglas MacArthur's communique said U. S. 24th infantry division "is still holding firm" in that area. American forces apparently were falling back to the Kumchon area where a new stand (jagged line) will be made. Red columns are reported in Chonju, southwest of Taejon; others are moving on highways leading to Hamchang and Andong. Solid line is approximately battle line. (AP Wirephoto map) Victory (Continued from Pure 1) The battle began yesterday af ternoon when the U.S. task force moved against the city which nestles in a cup of a mountain ride. Crouched on a hillside in a soybean patch with Capt. Carl ton S. Johnson of Chester, Pa., and MSgt. Kenneth E. Brown of La Mesa, Tex., I watched the assault. Flanking Movement Used Under a barrage of artillery and mortar fire which splashed fire into villages on the slopes of the mountain behind Yechon, two companies began a flank ing move a tactic which the Reds previously have used suc cessfully. To the west, small groups of soldiers legged it across the rice fields. A machine gunner ran heavily up the slopes and into a grove of trees. There was si lence for a moment then the guns opened up. Directly north, down a desert ed road into Yechon, the colored soldiers stalked warily into clus ters of houses, firing as they went. To the east, a small knot of soldiers clustered about a small mud hut then broke into sudden life and the men dived into fields for cover as a machine- gun rattled. Reds Push On (Continued from Pnjre 1) The immediate communist ob jective seemed to be the high way junction of Yongdon, 23 miles southeast of Taejon and 100 miles northwest of Pusan. The dispatch said North Kor ean guerilla snipers were re ported to have penetrated up to 18 miles south of Taejon. Earlier reports said the Reds had attacked the new American defense line some four miles southeast of Taejon in regiment al strength probably 1,500 to 2,000 men with heavy tank support at 10:30 a.m. (8:30 p.m. Thursday EDT). The latest dispatch from Unit ed Press War Correspondent Peter Kalischcr indicated that the heavy attack had forced the Americans to abandon their first lines of defense and fall back deeper into the hills overlooking the roads running southeast and south from Taejon. It appeared that the North Koreans were trying desperate ly to smash on to the southeast before the Americans could re group after losing Taejon. The 21st regiment began dig ging into the new defenses be- FOR TIME PAYMENTS Up to One Year to Pay No Interest No Carrying Charge SMALL DOWN PAYMENT JIM CALVERT, Mgr.
