Pope's Recovery to
Be Over Long Period
VATICAN CITY, Wl - The
Vatican apparently answering
rumors that Pope Pius XII has
taken a turn for the worse,
announced Saturday that his
"gradual, slow recovery continues
normally."
A communique, the first issued
in several days on the ailing Pon
tiff's health, said his convalcs
cense from a persistent stomach
ailment was expected to be a long
one.
"A good period of repose," is
needed before the Pope can re
gain his normal health, the Vati
can said.
During a 60-minute address be
fore a capacity audience of Salem
Knife and Forkers at the Marion
Hotel Friday night, Miss Lynn
gave a concise and clear-cut in
formative talk, describing condi
tions in her native land under
communistic rule.
The communists, said the young
Chinese woman, live up to their
promises to give every farmer a
piece of land, to educate the youth
and permit freedom of religion.
But in the final analysis the fulfill
ment of the promises are so hedg-
ed about by restrictions and condi
tions that the victims find them-
cfklvnc Irmbincy fnp Ac-inn ' .
The farmers, Miss Lynn declar
ed, have been given the land, but
the numerous "requests" for dona
tions for various groups, which in
reality amount to demands, mulct
them of nearly all of what they
are able to raise.
The same situation applies to
the laborers, whose wages have
been increased. They, too, are
compelled to contribute of their
earnings to the "soldiers" and
numerous agencies of communistic
origin.
The Chinese people continue to
be hungry because much of the
products of the soil are sent to
Russia to be turned into vodka.
No one wears good clothes for
fear of being conspicuous and
those who travel must have a
certificate.
Freedom of assemblage is al
most impossible, said Miss Lynn,
because when four or more per
sons congregate for 10 minutes or
longer, they must have permit
issued by the communist authori
ties. Under such conditions, she point
ed out, it is virtually impossible
to organize a successful resist
ance movement.
The speaker declined to answer
a question from the audience as
to the possibility of a successful
uprising of the Nationalist forces,
explaining that she was not in a
position to know the answer. How
ever, she saw little hope in the
near future for an overthrow of
the communist regime.

ALBANY Albany police of

at their fourth annual dinner in
the Cascade room at the Albany
hotel, with Lew Barnes, deputy

Barnes noted that reformation

with public cooperation, but
more than that, "it is you peo

Corrupt Practices Act
Weak, Says Neuberger
Oregon is a "one-party" state
because the Republicans have
huge campaign funds while the
Democrats are unable to raise
more than a pittance, State Sen
ator Richard L. Neuberger de
clared at a Democratic meetirc:
held Friday night at the Bus!,
school.
Senator Neuberger's talk was
preceded by a brief discussion
of "vvomens' Place in Politics
by his wife, Rep. Maurine Neu
berger. Both the speakers were
introduced to the crowd number
ing about 100 by Guy Jonas, pres
ident of thc Marion County Dem
ocratic Club.
Neuberger said that in 1952
the Republican State Central
Committee spent $315,400 on thc
election campaign while the
Democrats spent only $29,800.
Far stricter corrupt practices
were advocated by Neuberger
with a limitation on all campaign
expenditures with all money ex
pended going through one agent
or committee. ,

Neuberger said that the pres
ent corrupt practices act on the
Oregon statutes is dead, because
a candidate can have any num
ber of committees spending
money in his behalf, and no one
knows the source of such funds.
Neuberger suggested a limit
o' 50,000 expenditure in behalt
of any major candidate by a com
mittee and $25,000 for th? candi
date himself.
For congressmen, Neuberger"
would limit campaign outlays to
$15,000 with limits tapering off
in accordance with the import
ance of the job. He said that the
limits in larger cities would, of
necessity, be higher than in the
smaller communities.
The Multnomah county sena
tor and writer deplored the at
tack on Chief Justice Earl War
ren, an attack which he placed
on charges "without evidence" by
Senator McCarthy.
