At the dump spot Winters
suddenly sprang from, the
truck and started running
across the field. The guards
chased him and struck him1 a
jolting blow with a billy, but
he kept going. .
While the guards were giv
ing their attention to Winters
the other four poured out of
the truck, threatened the
guards with knives and a steel
club, and followed Winters.
As they ran they dropped
four prison-made shivs, all razor-sharp,
and a heavy steel
rod evidently Intended as a
weapon
with manslaughter by abortion
Dr. Bartell was taken into
custody by Sheriff Tony Neu
fcldt; District Attorney Walter
Foster; State Patrolmen Bob
Rissman and Russell Haynes.
They were accompanied by In
vestigators from the State Med
ical Board and the U, S. Nar
cotics Bureau at Portland.
The indictment bases the
manslaughter count upon the
charge that. Dr. Bartell ner-
formed an illegal operation up
on a Salem housewife Septem
ber 80, 1951.
A large assortment of sur
gical instruments in Dr. Bar
tell's office was checked by the
investigators, and some of
them seized as possible evi
dence.
The physician was taken di
rectly to the sheriff's office and
then to the county clerk's of

needs time to build up China,
that the drain of the Korean
war is greater than we realize,
that Mao with proper incen
tive might become another Tito
In Korea, Dulles feels that
a new boundary drawn across
the narrow waist, first would
be easier to defend, second
would give South Korea three
quarters of the population. But
to get this line accepted by the
Reds may not be easy. It will
mean the withdrawal of Chi
nese troops from several thou
sand square miles of tightly
held territory in which the reds
have dug trenches and under
ground rooms three' tiers deep.
So in return for a retreat to
the Korean waist, Dulles has
been talking about throwing
Chiang Kai-shek out the win
dow diplomatically speaking.
In fact, he's actually talking
more anti-Chiang than Dean
Acheson who was pilloried by
his enemies as the "Red Dean"
because he didn't support
Chiang.
Note C. D. Jackson, former
Fortune magazine publisher,
now a close White House ad
viser, has had a private tiff
with Secretary of State Dulles.
Not long ago, Dulles reminded
Jackson that he, not Jackson,
was running the state depart
ment. But last week after the
White House denial of the Dulles-inspired
news stories, some
White House advisers figured
foreign policy might be better
off if C. D. Jackson were run
ning the state department.

Protest Improvement A
protest against the improve
ment program for James street
in the Keizer district as recent
ly sanction by the county court
was filed Tuesday by Benton
H. Buck. Buck asked that his
name be withdrawn from the
petition asking for the improve
ment. He said the improvement
was to be under the Bancroft
act and that it called for hard
surfacing. The court has set up
a policy of permitting a con
siderable lapse of time between
the process of grading and gra
veling and the application of
the final surface. Court mem.
bers say this method provides
a better job.

Brandishing the shiv, he made
Roy E. Olson, 1974 ' Court
street, Salem, one of the crew,
give him the keys to the car. .
Edmond A. Meola, landscape
architent for the highway de
partment, sensing trouble, had
approached the car to see if the
keys were in it. The convicts
forced him into the car and
four of them piled into the
vehicle. Llnd, the fifth, left
the road and started along Mill
creek to the southeast. .
The fugitive car was driven
wildly through Salem and out
the north city limits on High
way 99E, When well on the
way the convicts robbed Me
ola of his money, $16.
"fne didn't get tough with
me and used no violence other
than flashing the knife," Me
ola said later at State Police
headquarters, -
And after the captured pris
oners had been searched for
weapons, but not yet frisked for
other articles, and stood hand
cuffed together, one of the
Smith boys said to Meola:
"I've got your money in my
pocket. I'd like to give it back."
Meola answered that it
would have to be done through
the authorities.
At Gervais the fugitives left
the highway, drove across
country to St. Paul and then
to Newberg bridge.
State Police- had set up a
roadblock at the north end of
the bridge. The vehicle was
on the bridge before the con
victs saw it. They stopped the
car abruptly and all jumped
out. Winters jumped from the
railing of the bridge and land
er 30 feet below at the edge
of the river. The other three
took to the brush. All werex
caught minutes later.
When the convicts fled in
the car with Meola, Marion
Gleason, 1940 Fisher Road. Sa
lem, and Rudolph Siegmund of
Eugene, members of the high
way crew, hurried to nearby
State Police headquarters
At the penitentiary the
chase was organized by War
den Clarence T. Gladden and
his assistants. While State of-,
ficers and prison guards were
following the commandeered
car another posse was beating
the brush between Salem and
Turner in a futile effort to
findLind.
Warden Gladden said todav
he had placed the four men in
segregation.
When the escape alarm was
sounded Monday afternoon all
prisoners were locked in their
cells so guards and officers
could be released to join in the
manhunt.
Warden Gladden said todav
he had discharged Charles
Lemon, the gate guard, because
he did not shake down the
loaded truck thoroughly
enough when It left the yard.

The joint committee report
ed out a bill which authorizes
an 80 per cent indemnity pay
ment by the state for slaught
ered swine infected with vesi
cular exenthema. . :
The meat packers had sought
a full 100 per cept recovery
from the state, -but members of
the sub-committee held that
this was justified in view of the
lack of knowledge of the di
sease and Its control. '
A bill outlining the duties of
the state emergency board was
passed out favorably. Among
me new leatures of the powers
of the board would be authori
ty to hire personnel for aueh
investigations that the com
mittee deems necessary.
This feature was considered
ai virtually killing chances for
setting up ' legislative analy-
1st, although the bill so pro
viding will have an airing
later in the week.
. Senator Dean Walker, co-
chairman of the committee said
he felt that perhaps it would
be better to try out the plan
on a restricted basil for the
next two years and consider
the advisability of providing
lor a legislative analyst at the
1959 session of the legislature.
Appropriations approved by
the committee included:
Board of health. $1,819,673:
federal matching money, board
of health, $2,005, 887; highway
commission. $132,658,148; milk
marketing administrator.
$363,078.
Appropriation Bills
Penitentiary industries. $1.-
243,123; board of pharmacy,
$80,446: Oregon Fair view
home, $4,284,498 and HUlcrest
home, $565,917.
In another action the board
voted out an amended aDDro-
priation for the Oregon Tech
nical Institute. It calls for a
$28,048 cut in the original u.
propria tlon, which reduced the
1953-55 appropriation to si..
560,850.
lhe committee also reDOrted
out enabling legislation for
creation of an Oregon Develop
ment commission. The mea
sure charged the commission
with promoting new industries
in the state and carries a $50,
000 appropriation for the two
year period.

This will be one source of ad
ditional money needed to In
crease city salaries and wages
by $50,000. Another will be by
reducing the emergency fund
estimate by about $10,000, and
another by eliminating from
the budget $22,000, for the
planned extension of 16th street
north. Other savings will come
from reducing the cost of city
first aid and the fire inspection
service by merging them with
regular fire department activi
ty. Since it appears that a way
has been found to balance the
budget a general committee
meeting that was scheduled for
Wednesday night of this week
has been deferred to next week.

The crash scene is 38 or 40
miles southeast of ' Seattle,
which had been the plane's des
tination. It was within a few
minutes of its cross-country
destination when it met disas
ter in the snow that fell a foot
deep overnight atop the Cas
cades. "-
The twin-engine carrier. ot
erated by Miami Airline, Inc.,
of Florida, was bringing Its
military passengers to Seattle
on a special charter flight
. The non-schedule airline's
home office in Miami reported
12 of the soldiers were picked
up in Washington and 10 oth
ers at Scranton, Pa.
A cryptic message at 2:07
a. m. from the plane told of
the failure of one of its two
engines. It was losing altitude
and was down to 4,500 feet.
The final radio report was
at 2:22 a. m. The pilot then
was uncertain of his position.
The crew members were:

"I may have some views on
the subject but I consider this
a fundamental question that
must be decided by the legisla
ture. It is the assembly's func
tion to legislate and my office
to administer the legislation
that is enacted."
Carkin pointed out a compli
cation in connection with regu
lation of rates on water car
riers. This was a recent federal
court decision, made by Judge
Gus Solomon, in which It was
held that water transportation
on the Columbia river Is inter
state, even though the cargo is
carried only between two Ore
gon points. Therefore the state
has no control over water car
rier rates on the. Columbia,
where the principal water car
riers ply. )''
When4 Senator Brady at
tempted to orally amend his
own amendments, Chairman
Lamport exploded, declaring
that such a procedure was un
heard ol Brady countered with
the assertion that he could see
no reason why the amendments
he desires to make could not be
made in committee. But other
members of the committee
backed the chairman and as a
result the amendments offered
by Brady will be printed and
another committee . meeting
will be held Tuesday or Wed
