Ellsworth (R-Ore) said in his weekly newsletter today. Ellsworth made his comment in connection with the proposed investigation of the lobby. He said he is not certain there is such a lobby, but if there is one it surely has been a complete flop in its activities judging from the present pitiful condi tion of the nationalist govern ment." The congressman described the proposed investigation as si milar to the backfire technique used to fight forest fires. This backfire, he said, is "set for the purpose of slowing down the big blaze of public opinion which is about to consume the adminis tration people." Statements that the Central News agency, owned by the na tionalist government, has spent about $654,000,000 in three years to influence public opinion were called "absurd by Ellsworth. He said this amount "equals many times the total amount ex pended by all the news agencies in America which operate on a complete nation-wide basis."

Eaton, 83, 291 Grand St., was killed in a fall from the Union Pacific westbound stream liner near Condon, Ore., Wed nesday morning, according to word received by relatives to day.

Ore., 11 Medals of Honor Awarded to Dead Heroes Washington, June 21 (P) General Omar Bradley said today that in Korea "the free nations gained at least one precious year for whatever may come." He told the kinfolk of 11 gallant men of the army to whom h gave the Medal of Honor, the nation's paramount military decor ation, that these men made an eminent contribution" to at-1 taining that period of grace Ten of the men infantrymen, engineers, a medic, men and of ficers are dead and one is miss ing in action. Of 23 medals of honor awarded to army soldiers who fought in Korea, only three have been alive and present to receive them. The valor of these 11, above and beyond the call of duty, was demonstrated on what Bradley said was "that grim battle ground" of Korea. He said their deeds had "placed their names on the roll of courageous, pa triotic Americans whose ex ploits will never be forgotten." For their deaths and for their daring the five-star general of the army offered "the deep sym pathy and profound gratitude of our nation." The army awards have gone to both soldiers and officers of four branches of the service 18 to infantrymen, two to engin eers, two to members of armor ed outfits and one to a hero of the army medical service. Among the recipients were Sgt. 1C Loren R. Kaufman, Ninth regiment, Second infan try division; his father, D. A. Kaufman, 529 Southeast Grand avenue, Portland, Ore. McKay to Heed (Continued from Page 1) In addition the legislature drafted and passed a constitu tional amendment providing for an emergency board with the powers that the old board was thought to have had, an amend ment that will be passed upon by the voters at the general elec tion in November, 1952. Under the law setting up the advisory board, the legislature followed the same plan of organ ization as was prescribed for the old board. Members of Board Membership on the new board includes Paul E. Patterson, pres ident of the senate; John F. Steelhammer, speaker of the house; Sen. Howard Belton and Rep. Henry Semon, joint chair men of the ways and means committee together with Sen. Dean Walker, appointed by Pat terson and Reps. Earl Hill and Rudie Wilhelm, appointed by Steelhammer. The law governing disposition of the slate emergency board requires that before the gover nor can make any allocations from the fund, the state depart ments requesting additional funds must submit written jus tification of the request and the director of finance must also make a report and recommenda tions. This dala must then be pre sented to the emergency board for its consideration after which the board makes its recommen dations to the governor who has the final determination as to whether the request shall be granted or denied. The new board has not yet met to organize but Governor McKay intimated that he would soon request a meeting of the emergency board. Lry--1 1 mm Try Pinl Today!
