Prior to the close of the case the morning session was taken up by cross-examination of C. E. Jaqua, public utility grade crossing engineer, who conduct ed an independent investigation on assignment by Commissioner flcltzel. Jaqua outlined his rec ommendations Wednesday and enlarged upon them at the ses sion Thursday. Earlier Wednesday Val John son, state highway department engineer, as a witness for the city, also made recommendations for grade crossings, many of which wc.e similar to those fa vored by Jaqua Mayor Al Loucks, also a wit ness' for the city, told the com mission that 1-c did not pose as a grade crossing expert and for that reason he did not wish to make an-' specific recommenda tions. But h did testify that he thought many of the grade crossings were not adequately protected. The mayor said that on a re cent trip to New Orleans he ob served 'hundreds' of drop gates at railroads crossings, testimony evidently introduced to contra dict previous testimony by a wit ness for the 'Silroad to the ef fect that the drop gates were not being used generally. Jaqua s ' recommendations for additional protection at the vari ous Salem grade crossings were: - Silverton road, drop arms; Woodrow, no change; Tile road, cither closed entirely or flashing lights; Madison, no change; Mar ket, flashing lights; Nebraska, closed or drop arms; Marion, Center, Chemeketa, flashing lights; Court, flash:ng lights; State street, tie in with traffic signals with flashing lights; Fer ry, Mill, Mission ' nd Hines, flashing lights.

Mayor Loud told the commis sion 'hat the city still was con sidering insulating the tracks be tween Marion and State streets b widening the street and build ing a curb on the west side of the railro. d tracks. This propos al was once made in a measure to the peop'.e but voted down. Commissioner Hcltzel said that the commission could not base any of its findings on any pos sible action in the future but only upon fac'- as they now ex is, and presetted in this hear ing.

' Belsky Denies (Continued from Pan 1) ' had stated that all Army and gov ernment witnesses should "willing ly and cheerfully give testimony" so lone as it did not endanger se curity. Belsky is assigned to the Army's Murphy General Hospital at Walt ham, Mass. McCarthy said he thought Bel sky should be cited for contempt of Congress after the 25-year-old doctor declined to say whether he honestly believed it might have tended to incriminate him to an swer all the questions he had re fused to answer. He had pleaded the right against self-incrimina tion. Sen. McClcllan (D-Ark) Dut the broad question to Belskv. saving he did not think witnesses should be allowed to invoke their consti tutional protection under the fifth amendment merely to keep infor mation from congressional investi gators. McCarthy said that since Belsky had refused to answer this ques tion, he had wrongfully invoked his constitutional protection on all the previous questions. While McCarthy promptly rec ommended contempt action, the subcommittee deferred a decision until later. The hearing was recessed until Friday morning without calling any other witnesses.
