jailed. However, such tri
bute has just been paid to Jo
seph B. Keenan, former No. 2
man in the justice department
and former U. S. war crimes
prosecutor in Japan.
Keenan spent many months
in Tokyo after the end of the
war, sent some of its top lead
ers to jail for atrocities in the
Philippines and for the attack
on Pearl Harbor.. But the
other day he went back, was
cordially received by the em'
peror, treated generously in
the Japanese press, and called
on one of the war criminals he
had convicted.
He was Mamoru Shigemitsu,
Japan' foreign minister all
during the war, and sentenced
to seven years in jail by Kee-
nan's court.
Shigemitsu, whom I knew
In Peking when he was a sec
ond secretary of the Japanese
embassy and I was a young
newspaperman, always seem'
ed to me pro-American. Kee
nan confirmed this impression,
aid he didn't want to prose
cute him, but the Russians and
other members ol the court in-
sisted on it and we were
trying to get along with the
Russians in those days.
Whether Shigemitsu is pro
American or not happens to be
of great Importance these
days, for he may be the next
premier of Japan if Premier
Yoshida fails of re-election this
month.
Significantly, Shigemitsu re
ceived Keenan without bitter
ness, said he felt Japan's only
course was with the United
States. i
Bouncing Mayor Fahrettin
Kerin Gokay of Istanbul bounc
ed into Washington the other
day, then bounced on to Chi
cago and the west coast to at
tend various medical conven
tions. Mayor Gokay, sometimes
called the LaGuardla of Tur
key, has the same dynamic en
ergy as the late mayor of New
York and the same reputation
for honesty. But Mayor Gokay
goes LaGuardia one better. He
is a doctor, is in the United
States to meet various psychi
atric experts.
Furthermore, Mayor Gokay,
a teetotaler himself most Mo
hammedans are doesn't be
lieve In letting drunks litter up
the streets of Istanbul. So when
a man is arrested for drunk
enness, he is given an Injection
which makes the patient death,
ly ill if he ever drinks again.
As a result the mayor is one
of the most feared men in Tur
keyby some people.

Washington OT The govern
ment reported Saturday that
home-building activity for the
first quarter of this year just
about equalled the same period
in 1952.
The Bureau of Labor Statis
tics said there were 245,000
housing starts in the January-
March period this year, com
pared with 246,500 unit start
ed in the same period a year
ago. .
Starts this past March to'
tailed 97,000, or 26 per cent
more thftn the 77,000 in Febru
ary. But the rise was not so
large as usual for this time of
the year, when home construc
tion begins to pick up after the
winter lag. ,
The bureau said final figures
showed 1,127,000 new perma
nent non-farm dwellings were
started in 1952, one of the big
gest home-building years on
record. This was about 8 per
cent above the 1,091,300 units
started in 1952, but 20 per cent
below the 1950 record of 1,896,
000. . ,

By noon, almost every avail
able bit of space along the
bank of Mill creek was occu
pied by hopeful Juvenile fish
ermen. The creek is closed to
anyone 18 years of age or
older.
The Salem Izaak Walton
League an the Salem Lions
club were manning five check
points along Mill creek, regis
tering all fish caught by the
boys and girls.
One of the checkpoints
near the penitentiary annex,
reported 40 fish turned in at
noon today. - A number of
boys and girls fishing in the
area had caught fish, but bad
not yet checked in.
A number of prizes are
waiting kids catching the
largest fish, for the youngest
boy and youngest girl to re
port a catch, and for the first
limit catch reported.
The prison annex check
point said that apparently no
body fishing in that arse had
approached the limit by noon
today. Another checkpoint,
near the state forestry build
ing, did not have a count of
the number of fish turned in,
but lt was thought to be the
busiest checkpoint of the five.
The other three checkpoints
are located upstream, at
Aumsville, midway between
Aumsville and Turner, and at
Turner.
Prizes will be awarded at
a special gathering of youthful
fishermen at the Izaak Walton
League clubhouse next Satur
day.
Ways, Means
(Continued from Page 1)
"Three principal factors in-
uuenced our decision to re-
refer this question to the vot
ers: The excessive cost of an
institution confined to the aged
mentally ill; the fact that the
aged need the companionship
of younger patients,' and the
pressing need for third men
tal hospital."
The statement points out that
doubtless the people thought,
as did the committee members.
that the proposed institution
would be open to all aged per
sons, in effect a nursing home
for the aged.
Admissions Limited
"This is far from the actual
situation we have discovered,"
the statement continues. 'Hin
der the terms of the measure
approved by the people the pro
posed institution would be
open only to such persons as
are afflicted with certain men
tal ailments peculiar to the
aged. They would be admitted
only by commitment. Their
number, therefore, would ne
cessarily be fairly limited.
Because admittance to the
proposed Institution would be
limited, the committee discov
ered that Its cost would be at
least twice as high as that of
operating the state's two men
tal hospitals.
Costs Run High
In the Salem and Pendleton
state hospitals the per capita
cost now runs about $82 a
month, the committee statement
said. In the proposed "domicil
iary hospital," largely because
of absence of younger patients
who would perform some of the
work, this cost would run be
tween $180 and $179 for each
patient.
The need for a third mental
hospital in Oregon is recogniz
ed by our committee and the
legislature generally," the co
chairmen declared. "We feel
that such an institution should
be located in the Portland area
which contains one-third of the
state s population'.
Limit Salem Hospital
"The committee this year
took tne first step toward es
tablishment of such an institu
tion when lt refused to concur
in the recommendation of the
board of control that the Salem
state hospital be greatly ex
panded. We feel the Salem in
stitution should be limited to
3600 patients which it is now
approaching." '
The commltee ignored entire
ly the fact that present build
ings in which the aged are
housed in the state hospital in
Salem have been condemned
by the state fire marshal and
a constant threat of a holocaust
is ever present in the old hos
pital building and in Ward 48
where some of the aged are
housed. '
Scattered Showers Cloudi
ness, occasional light rain to
night and scattered showers
for Sunday is the weather out
look for the week-end in Salem
and vicinity. The showers are
not expected to be heavy
enough to prevent garden fans
from doing considerable work
in their yards if they want to,
Sunday. Only -a trace of pre
cipitation was recorded for
Salem in the 24-hour period to
10:30 a.m. Saturday, and only
37 of an inch is measured for
the first 18 days of April.

Forest Code
(Continued from Page 1)
When one recalls the heat
ed controversy over the ori
ginal severance - tax bill en
acted in the 1S47 legislature
lt Is worthy of note that House
Bill 481 the severance tax
bill passed both houses of
the 1953 legislature without a
dissenting vote.
Another Important bill
tightens restrictions on logging
operators who use power
equipment in hazardous areas
and enacts into law many of
the rules and regulations of
the forestry board. These in
clude prohibition of the use of
fuse and cap in blasting, the
use of powder in topping trees,
tightens the provision which
requires the falling of snags
coincident with logging and re
quires permits when mills and
factories are constructed with
in forest areas.
New Fire Financing
House Bill 238 sets up an
entirely new method of fi
nancing fire patrol associations
and state fire patrol districts.
It provides for assessments and
extension on the tax roll of
budget estimates rather than
actual cost.
This allows fire districts to
make needed Improvements
and additions to equipment on
a current basis and will speed
the allotments of government
money to compensate for pro
tection of O&C lands.
An approved senate bill al
lows the governor to close
game seasons when fire condi
tions make it unwise for con
centrations of sportsmen in the
woods. This is expected to
clarify a condition which has
existed for many years.
A house bill defines new
areas which will be subject to
closures due to low humidity
and requires permits for log
ging operations over the en
tire state. Formerly, special
permits were required only
west of the Cascades.

ol 18, the banks and braes of
ing season, under former
statutes the governor was em
powered to close forests to en
try but had nothing to do with
operation of the hunting sea
son. This made it possible for
hunters to hunt on areas out
side the closed forest areas
and as result much confusion
was caused through inability of
either forest or police authori
ties to control traffic through
forest areas.
With game seasons closed at
the same time forest areas are
closed, much confusion will be
eliminated.
Senate Bill S Increases the
amount of bond from $8 to
$16 per area which must be
furnished by an owner or oper
ator of forest lands who is
found to be cutting in viola
tion of standard- set up for
proper reforestation. This in
crease was needed because of
the increased costs should the
state forester find it necessary
to replant the area.
Timber Owners Responsible
Two approved house bills
make timber owners responsi
ble for logs, poles or piling lost
or placed upon county roads
and state highways. If owners
fall to remove them within 80
days they are presumed to be
abandoned and the county or
the stale may dispose of them.
in brief, House Bill S47 clar
ifies the procedures, definitions
and responsibilities of land
owners for protection of their
lands and other lands against
fire.
Closely allied with the for
estry bills was passage of Sen
ate Bill 269 considered by the
logging Industry as a marked
Improvement in highway leg
islation. No major changes were
made in allowable weights
or dimensions of loads but
