Hall Sentence
For the reason that he wish
ed to make further investiga
tion concerning the activities
of the defendant as well as the
operations of slot machines,
Circuit Judge Rex Kimmell
Wednesday morning postponed
passing sentence upon George
Hall, former state rehabilita
tion counselor, until August 12,
Hall had previously entered a
plea of guilty to a forgery
charge involving subsistence
checks made out to handi
capped persons.
"The court feels that all of
the facta should be brought to
light before a final determina
tion is made," explained Judge
Kimmell. "I will aslr for a com
plete investigation not only to
determine this particular case,
but for the possible salutory
effect it may have on others."
Speaking on behalf of her
husband, Mrs. Hall said that
she and their five children had
literally "scraped the barrel" in
an effort to raise funds for the
purpose of making restitution.
All of the money earned by the
children to further their edu
cational programs as well as a
small sum earned by another
in berry picking has been pool
ed, said Mrs. Hall.
Mrs. Hall expressed the opin
ion that the state waa an ac
cessory to the crime in that
they permitted slot machines to
operate. She spoke of the "Elks
lodge" that promoted a program
of aid to under privileged per
sons at Christmas time from
fund a that were secured
through the operation of slot
machines. "I, too, may possibly
be one of the under privileged
next Christmas," she added.
The judge responded by as
sitting Mrs. Hall that a com
plete investigation would be
made.
Hall placed the blame for his
forgeries upon losses sustained
through operations of slot ma
chines.

Censorship
(Continued from Page 1)
You cannot write that!"
The censor was told by one re
porter that he wrote the story
when it happened more than
two years ago.
Too Sick to Talk
The same censor refused to
allow the ex-prisoner to dis
cuss deaths of allied captives
on a midwinter march from
Seoul north to the Yalu river
"except those deaths you actu
ally saw yourself." As the
helicopters carrying the eight
litter patients whirred down
on the landing strip ambu
lances sped them to clean hos
pital cots and expert care.
None was smiling.
A Hospital aid remarked
sadly:
Here it is the happiest day
of their lives and they are too
sick to appreciate it."
James Davis said many of
his friends starved to death
in the early months of 1951.
He described treatment in Red
camps as "pretty tough."
Not Many Men Left
"It feels wonderful " to be
back, said Richard Davis, who
was captured November 27,
1950. He said "there's not
many men left" of those cap
tured with him.
One man tried to rise from
his stretcher as it lay lust out
side an ambulance, but he was
too weak to aland alone.

U.S. Demands
(Continued from Page 1)
In a note shortly after the
incident, Russia had claimed
the American four -engine
bomber flew over Russian ter
ritory near Cape Gamov. Mos
cow contended that the Ameri
can plane opened fire on two
Soviet fighters which were
"inviting it to leave air space
of the Soviet Union," snd then
disappeared in the direction of
the sea.
In its snswer Wednesday,
the United States said Russia's
story is "in complete contra
diction of the facts of the case"
as established by a thorough
investigation by American au
thorities including questioning
of the lone known survivor,
Capt. John E. Roche.
40 Miles From Russia
Roche, the plane'a co-pilot,
was picked up 11 hours sfter
the incident by sn American
ship.
Instead of being over Russian
territory, the plane actually
was approximately 40 statute
miles southeast of the nearest
of the Soviet territory, Po
vortny, the American note
said, adding:
'This position was establish
ed by radar by the navigator
just prior to the attack."
The Russian MIG15 fights,
according to Roche's eye-wit-1
ness account, attacked without!
warning, setting fire first to
one of the American plane's
engines, later a second and then
to the wings. ,

More Schools Became
Standardized in '52-53
By JAMES
Out of 388 elementary
schools visited and evaluated
by supervisors of the state de
partment of education during
the past school year, 92 per
cent were rated as standard or
conditionally standard, accord
ing to a report made Tuesday
by Donald A. Emerson, assist
ant superintendent in charge of
supervision and instruction in
the, state school system.
The basic school support act,
passed by the 1947 legislature.
Disced responsibility on the
state department of examining
and evaluating schools of the
state to detrmine their eligibil
ity to receive financial benefits
from the basic school support
fund.
Of 98 high schools visited
87.2 per cent were rated as
standard or conditionally so.
Emerson said that schools
visited are rated either as
standard, conditional standard,
standard with advise or non
standard. Only five per cent of the ele
mentary schools and 3.2 per
cent of the high schools evalu
ated during the year were rat
ed aa non-standard during the
school year.
Since a school rated as non
standard is not eligible to re
ceive basic school support
funds, Emerson said every ef
fort is made by local school
authorities, with the aid of
state supervisors, to attain a
status above that of non-standard.
Dulles-Rhee
(Continued from Page 1)
The source said Rhee and
Dulles came to no decision on
where the Far Eastern confer
ence should be and probably
put oft until their next meeting
at 10 a.m. Thursday (8 p.m.
Wednesday, PST) the contro
versial question of unifying
Korea.
Rhee wants to resume the
war if the political conference
makes no headway on this
question and the United States
haa promised to walk out of
the conference after 90 days if
the communists persist in stall
ing on unification.
The source said also It was
"very possible" Dulles and
Rhee would sign or initial
proposed Korean-American
security treaty during the pre
sent meeting. Dulles' aides
later went into session with
South Korean officials to com
pare drafts of the treaty drawn
up by the two nations.
33
D. OLSON
Emerson said that in actual
practice it has been found that
a large percentage of schools
rated have not yet a 1 1 a i n e d
standard status but have in op
eration a plan of Improvements
that will, when completed, give
the school a fully standard rat
ing. These schools are designat
ed as conditionally standard.
This, Emerson said, was a tem
porary status and any school
cannot remain in this classifi
cation for an unlimited tme.
There are other schools, he
sad, that have come as near to
complete standardization as
present circumstances permit
but have not yet made satis
factory provisions for all facil
ities required of fully stand
ard school these are rated as
standard with advise.
Emerson said that actually
only a slight increase in schools
becoming standard was regis
tered during the past school
year. One of the principal rea
sons for this he said, is the ab-
noraml Increase in school popu
lation.
"The rate of increase in pop
ulation haa been so great in
some districts," Emerson said.
'that their financial conditon
will not permit them to keep
abreast with current needs.
However, a majority of such
districts have a program of im
provements that is permitting
them to advance at reason
able rate toward the goal of
complete standardization, and
are rated conditionally stand
ard or standard with advice.
During the past school year
total of 117 elementary
schools were rated aa standard
compared with 89 in the
previous school year. A total
of 84 high schools won a stand
ard rating during the last
school year as compared with
99 in the 1951 school year,
Emerson said that the task
of visiting and evaluating
schools of the state 1048 ele
mentary and 234 secondary
schools is so vast to make it
imposible to cover the entire
state with a single visit to each
school more often than in each
three-year period.
"However, the program of
standardization of schools haa
been carried on in Oregon at a
steady rate," Emerson said. "At
present it may be said that ev
ery public school In the state
has been visited by state su
pervisor and has been given a
definite rating. Records on tile
In the department gives infor
mation on practically every
room in each school in Ore
gon."

Answer Filed
In State Suit
The Vancouver Plywood
company, one of several de
fendants in a suit brought by
the state of Oregon seeking to
recover $282,882.63 aa the cost
of fighting fires in the Santlam
canyon in August and Septem
ber, 1951, filed aa answer in
Marion county circuit court
Wednesday in which the con
cern asks that the state collect
nothing aa the result of its ac
tion. The answer states that of the
total cost of fire fighting as set
mately $98,292.38 applies sole
ly to fire fighting in Marion
county, the balance being
chargable in Linn county.
"This defendant la also In
formed and believes, that the
cost Incurred or expended by
the plaintiff ... of fighting this
fire on that portion of the stata
of Oregon lands containing the
timber purchased by this de
fendant from plaintiff, waa not
in excess of the sum of $10,-,
000," the answer concludes.
The defendant also charges,
that the flare-up of the fire in
September w the proximate
result of either of carelessness
or negligence on the part of the
plaintiff and fire patrol asso
ciations which took over the
task of patrolling the district
