City to Ask

Salem crossings over a long
period or years.
' Attending the conference
Thursday were City Manager

City Attorney Chris J. Kowitz,
Assistant City Attorney Tom
Churchill, City Engineer J. H.
Davis and Chief of Police Clyde
A. warren.
All Crossinga Checked
Starting at - the north city
limits the officials checked
each crossing.
All of the crossings have the
usual stationary crossbucks
notifying motorists they are ap
proaching a railroad, but nine
of the 16 have no moving sig
nal devices.
It was decided that the city
would ask for drop-arms at
Silverton Road, Madison, Mar.
ket Nebraska, D Street, Marion,
Center, Chemeketa, Court,
Ferry and Mill.
For Tile road It was believed
a flash and bell would be suf

Vaughan, in the witness
chair of the Senate Internal
security subcommittee, said he
had no recollection at all of
any reports on White either in
1945 or 1940.
But he added that if reports
were marked for the President
It was not hit Job to evaluate
them or take action on them
and that he was merely a
means of conveyance" In get
ting them to the chief executive.
He added he waa sure Tru
man got FBI reports given to
him by Vaughan because It
was his practice to put them
on the president's desk or a
nearby table at morning staff
meetings.
Vaughan, whose testimony
had been expected to highlight
the sub-committee s first public
hearing In the White case, was
on the stand only 13 minutes.
Truman Resolves Doubts
The retired major general
said that when he first got the
subpoena to testify he had
serious doubts ' as to whether
he should answer questions
about the "confidential rela
tionship" between him and the
former president.
But he aaid these doubts
were resolved when Truman
personally authorized him to
appear and "answer fully" any
questions to the best of his
recollection.
Vaughan said he was the
channel through which FBI re
ports went to the President.
Some times he got two or
three a week, he said, some
times as many as 15 or 20
Before Vaughan took the wit
ness chair, T. Lamar Caudel, a
former assistant attorney gen
eral, testified that, as he
remembers, a 1946 FBI memo
randum Indicated that White
was a member of the Com
munist underground.
A crowd of several hundred
persona jammed the hearing
room and television cameras
were trained on the witness
chair.
Caudle, wearing a blue suit,
blue shirt and blue bow tie,
said that an FBI memorandum
on White was sent him early
in 1946 and that, after reading
it, he "became alarmed about
the matter" and called the of
fice of Tom Clark, then at-J
torney general and now a Su
preme Court justice.
Truman aaid be was follow
ing the Constitution of the
United States and precedents
aet since 1796 in refusing to
honor the committee's sum
mons. He said the letter waa "my
official statement" and that he
would not expand on It.
Boh a Press Conferee ee
la a crowded news confer
ence at the Waldorf Astoria
hotel, Truman explained that
the letter had been delivered
to Velde in Washington Thure
day morning.
"I'll read It alowly for re
porters and then I'll read it
for the television cameras and
there'll be no questions," he
aaid.
"I say this now to you'll
know what we're doing and
why we're doing, it"
At the outset of the letter.
Truman told Velde the sub
poena does "not state the mat
ter on which you wish to ex
amine me."
But he said:
"I assume you wish to ex
amine me about matters which
occurred when I was presi
dent of the Untied States."
Cites Precedents
Then he recited a long list
of constitutional and histor
ical' precedents as to why he
should ignore the committee's
subpoena. i
Truman was In good humor
as he est down st a table be
decked with microphones and
surrounded by some 70 news
men and cameramen.
The conference on the 28th
floor of the Waldorf-Astoria
waa called after Truman had
parried queries as to his stand
for several days,
The parrying continued
through the ex-President's pre
breakfast walk - Thursday
morning a hectic affair on
which he was accompanied by
some 80 panting, newspaper
men.
Jostled and Shoved
He was jostled, shoved and
pushed. Well-wishers joined
the accompanying newsmen.
Microphones were shoved in
his face.
"Let's just take our walk,'
he pleaded at one point
For the most part Truman
refused to answer questions
about the White case. He par
ried and he sparred. He was
jovial throughout
One newsman asked him how
it felt being on the defense.
"I never have been on the
defense," he replied quickly,
"and I never expect to be."
The walk must have been
sne of tha most harried of bis
career. Unable to proceed at
his usual gait, he turned once
to the crowd and said, "if
you'll string along two by two,
then we can get on with our
morning walk."

Butts recommended a $50 in
crease in the pay scale of the
guards, who now have a start
ing pay of $250 a month, with
automatic increases every six
months until maximum sal
ary of $306 Is reached.
Mra. Argow told the board
that the executive committee
of the prison association had a
different approach. She rec
ommended that the present
starting salary be uncjanged,
that the recruits be given a
training course and upon grad
uation from this course, be
given an increase to $300 a
month.
"We do not feel that the
warden can possibly judge
what men will prove success

she aaid, "and it seems to us
It would be a waste of money to
increase the starting salary un

Data Needed
Any. pay increase for the
guards must finally have the
approval of the State Emer

Patterson pointed out that all

in face of a policy adopted of

Circuit Judge R, Frank
Peters of Washington county
was reversed in a damage ac
tion for personal Injuries re
sulting from collision with
a car driven by Ida E. Fry,
and Mark V. Whelpley. Jus
tice Walter L. Tooze held that
the unusual question of
whether Gerald Fry, driver of
the Fry car, died from a heart

or that his negligence was the
approximate cause of the acci

"It would be Impossible

Qualifications Lowered
"The qualifications for
