Supreme Court
Divided Into
2 Departments
Return to Old Plan
Made to Break Back
Log of Appeal Cases
By JAMES U. OLSON
Creation of two departments in
the 'state supreme court, a nlan
that was in vogue prior to 1942,
was announced Wednesday by
Chief Justice Earl C. Latou'rctte,
the plan to become effective im
mediately. Departmentalization of the
court, the chief justice said, was
made in order to expedite the
hearing and decision on eases to
meet the ever increasing number
of appeals filed.
Justices Assigned
Department No. 1 will consist
of Associate Justices Harold J.
Warner, George Rossman and
William C. Perry. Department No.
2 will consist of Associate Jus
tices Hall S. Lusk, James T..
Brand and Walter L. Tooze.
Chief Justice Latourette will
preside in both departments. In
his anouncemcnt he said that he
can order any case heard by the
entire court sitting in banc, if
he deems it necessary.
Under the new plan three jus
tices must concur to render a
valid decision.

Riots Renewed
Calcutta, India
NEW DELHI;' India (API-Violence
broke out again Wednesday
in the riot-battered city of Calcut
ta, heavily patrolled by soldiers
and police after Communist-led
demonstrations nearly wrecked the
downtown area.
Reports reaching New Delhi said
police opened fire on rioters for
the second straight day. There
were no details of casualties.
The trouble reportedly began
when a crowd attempted to hold a
meeting in a city square despite
a police ban on gatherings, of
more titan four people. When police-
intervened, they were pelted
with home-made fireworks.
Previous reports said soldiers
with ready arms were patrolling
the stone-littered streets of Cal
cutta to bar any resumption of
Tuesday's rioting, which resulted
in three dead and BO wounded.
Wind and Rain
Strike Valley
New rain storms, accompanied
by some wind, came in on the
valley early Wednesday, but
they were mild. The coast areas
were buffeted by more severe
storms than the interior regions.
In Salem, .38 of an inch of
rain was measured here in the
24-hour period ending at 10:30
a.m. Wednesday. Forecast is for
more showers tonight and
Thursday.
Cooler temperatures arc due
and the weather bureau at Port
land said in some areas the cool
er temperatures may cause some
snow mixed with, rain tonight.
New snow was listed in the
high mountains. Timherlinc lodge
listing a foot of new snow.
The highway department is ad
vising motorists to take chains
for many of the mountain pass
regions.
Court Probes
Added Cost
At the request of the county
court, the county's engineering
department will investigate the
10 per cent charge added to the
cost of improving county roads
under the Bancroft act.
The law stales that the 10 per
rent shall be added to cover en
gineering costs where the county
authorizes i m p r o v cmrnts. A
breakdown of the engineering
charge has not been made in a
number of years and the court
fceks to determine whether the
amount actually covers the cost
to the engineering department
or whether it is excessive.
In case it is determined that
the 10 per cent more than covers
necessary expenditures, it may
be that the county will assume
additional maintenance after a
given road is completed.
However, it was pointed out
during the discussion Monday
that the county loses its en
gineering expenses in these cases
where property owners d'-cide
not to improve after a survey
has been mp.de and after esti
mated costs of the improvement
have been submitted. There is
no way to recover such expenditures.

Details Secret but
Bidault Forced to
Consult Paris
BERLIN Wl A new Soviet
squeeze play on Korea and the
Indochina War developed in the
Big Four Berlin conference
Wednesday. It compelled French
Foreign Minister Bidault to ask his
Paris government for new instruc
tions. The nature of the new Russia
move was not disclosed. It occur
red in the fifth secret meeting of
the foreign ministers at the Soviet
Embassy Wednesday morning.
Bidault, "very perturbed" when
the meeting broke up, asked his
government for guidance, an offi
cial source disclosed.
The Big Four were conferring
in secret primarily about Soviet
Foreign Minister V. M. Molotov s
resolution for a big five parley,
including Red China.
West's Objection
The West has refused to admit
the Peiping government as a great
power in such talks but concedes
it should sit around the same ta
ble as other powers when specific
Asiatic subjects come up.
The aim of the West was to get
Molotov to use his influence to re
view the stalled Korean peace
talks first of all. The principal
goal of the French, however, is
to do something about ending the
Indochinese War.

Reds Holding
1 01 Americans
WASHINGTON (UP)-The Uni

Communist China of holding 101
Americans against their will and

This -country has made a ni.n
her of diplomatic representations
to Red China protesting the deten
tion of Americans on the Chinese
mainland. Officials declined to say
exactly when the latest protest
was filed.
Most of the Americans are mis

who were caught in China when
the Communists overran the coun

Reds Nail Lid
On Germany
BERLIN (UP)-Soviet Foreign
Minister Vyachcslav M. Molotov
today nailed the lid on the coffin
of Germany's hopes for unification
in a speech to the Foreign Minis
ter's Conference demanding unifi
cation only on Moscow's terms.
Molotov also reiterated his un
acceptable proposal for a Kremlin
dominated 32-nation security pact.
The only glimmer of hope for
the expiring conference was a re
port that East and West were
inching closer to agreement on a
Far Eastern conference, includ
ing Red China, to discuss Korean
and Indo-Chinese issues.
Molotov made clear Russi's un
yielding position on Germany and
European security in the opening
address to today's next to last
plenary session.

WASHINGTON ui President

Wednesday for authoritv to share

ly nations.
In a special message, the Pres
ident also asked for the right to
snare peacetime atomic power
production information with this
country's allies and to gjve Amer-
iiu pitvciiu muuMiy u greater
share in the development of nu
clear power.
Eisenhower said these steps
would have the effect of "strengh
tcning the defense and the econ
omy of the United States and of
the free world." '
The President said the onward
rush of atomic developments has
outmoded the 1946 atomic energy
act which mistakenly assumed the
United States could maintain a
monopoly in atomic weapons for
an appreciable time.
Power of Nuclear Weapon
Counterbalancing the loss of
monopoly, he said is the dcveloti-
ment of a wide variety of atomic
weapons which have "achieved
conventional status" in the armed
forces. ' .
He added:
"T h e thermonuclear weanons
eight years ago today dwarfs in
destructive power all atomic weap
ons. The practicability of con
structing a submarine with atomic
propulsion was questionable in
1946; three weeks ago the launch
ing of the U.S.S. Nautilus made it
certain that the use of atomic
energy for ship propulsion will un-
timatciy become widespread.
