TARGETS OF RED ATTACK 'Fellow Peasants Says Dewey To Grants Pass Cavemen Albany, N. Y., Sept. 21 OP) "Fellow peasants," Gov. Thomas E. Dewey said today in a telegram to an Oregon club. "I salute you and congratulate you. The Soviet propaganda machine has admitted you to the exclusive club of the down-trodden masses ?oI America. This was the mustachioed re- Cavemen to Combat Russ Propaganda Grants Pass, Sept. 21 (U.R) The Grants Pass Cavemen, whose picture with Gov. Thomas Dewey gave the Russians a good propaganda theme, pledged to day to spread the truth about the organization throughout the world. Joe J. Blunk, chief big horn of the Cavemen, said the group, made up of Grants Pass business and professional men, would work with the Crusade of Free dom to straighten out what "Russian propagandists have dis torted into lies." The photograph showed the New York governor at a Grants ' Pass festival surrounded by 1 "cavemen" wearing bear skins and waving clubs. The Russian story accompany ing the picture described the Cavemen as "a group, of peas ants" organized to combat the "wealthy p'ricsts and hierarchy" who control America through Wall Street and the church. Dewey was described as "a known anti-religious leader" who was defeated in his cam paign for president by "the Wall Street industrialists." Report Barbara Back with Tom Hollywood, Sept. 21 (U.R) Blonde Barbara Payton's tearful declarations of love for Franchot Tone, who took a beating in a battle for her affections, palled today as rumors spread she was back dating his conqueror, Actor Tom Neal. An eye-witness said the mus cular Neal, who pummeled Tone's features on Miss Payton's front lawn in a pre-dawn brawl last Friday, took the actress out Wednesday night. Neal called at Miss Payton's home, and they left in an auto mobile, returning later in the evening, the witness said. Tone's attorney, Kenneth Chantry, also said the triangle appeared to be doing a flip-flop. 7 "We know Miss Payton and Neal were together last night," he said yesterday. One-time Child Star Jackie Coogan started the rumors roll ing when he reported that Miss Payton and Neal attended a par ty at his home together while Tone lay Injured at California Lutheran hospital with a smashed face and brain concus sion. ' And Neal's attorney, Milton Golden, said he "wouldn't be surprised" if Neal and Miss Payton were married "after talking with Neal the last few days as I have." But the voluptuous actress de clared angrily that the reports were "ridiculous" and that she would marry Tone "as soon as he gets well." Neal, she said, "is a beast." Petrified Stump Found Near Lebanon Lebanon While bulldozing out a log-loading spot on the Russell ranch south of Sweet Home, C. J. Keeney and James Stock unearthed a petrified stump three feet in height and 18 inches in diameter. s It was found four feet under ground and several pieces of pet rified tree limbs were found near it. The Identity of the species of tree is not known but from the appearance of the grain It is judged to belong to the hard wood family. , Members of the Sweet Home Rock and Mineral society believe it to have been a sycamore tree of which there were many in this area in ages past. House in Recess Washington, Sept. 21 OT The house, fairly well caught up with Its work, started an unofficial one-week recess yesterday. Lead ers promised there will be no controversial legislation before next Thursday. The house re turned Sept. 12 from a 19-day recess: publican's back-of-the-hand to a Soviet portrayal of him as an anti-religious leader, in a cap tion, on a picture taken during his 1948 presidential primary campaign in Oregon. The picture showed members of the Cavemen's club of Grants Pass, Ore., dressed in animal skins and waving jawbones. They were welcoming Dewey ashore." The club gives the same treatment to all visiting dignitaries to publicize Oregon Caves. This week the club was told that a copy of the picture in Leningrad carried a caption de scribing the group as peasants organized to protest "the cruel and vicious Wall Street-backed church." "Pictured with them," the cap tion said, "is T, E. Dewey, a known anti-religious leader and once candidate for president of the United States." Dewey's tongue-in-cheek tele gram to the club said he was sure the members "will be de lighted to learn that they are now portrayed throughout Rus sia as the starving victims of American imperialism. You can now put your show on the road. I am sorry you can't take it to Moscow, where no meat, either raw or cooked, is available." Dewey is an honorary member of the club. He also is an Epis copal church vestryman. Pedestrian Killed by Auto Portland, Sept. 20 W) An automobile fatally injured a pe destrian,. Mrs. George Isenhart, Portland, yesterday.
