Suit Filed for
Thornton List
Of Probe Cost
PORTLAND - MB . Multnomah
County commissioners, concerned
over the cost-of investigation and
prosecutions in the recent vice
probe here, filed suit Tuesday
against Atty. Gen.- Robert Y.
Thornton, : ' " - -
They want him to provide esti
mates of his expenses.
The commissioners said Thorn
ton had refused to prepare such
estimates and that they were un
able to budget funds to meet the
cost.
The complaint states' they be
lieve that Thornton may submit
claims for payment of at least
$75,000 and "probably as much as
$300,000.";
Thornton was put in charge of
the probe by Gov. Elmo Smith.
Some 30 persons, including Mult
nomah County Dist. Atty. William
Langley and Police Chief James
Pucccll Jr., were indicted as a
result of the grand jury investiga
tion. Thornton said that the commis
sioners' statement that he had re
fused to prepare cost estimates
is "absolutely untrue."
Thornton added that he would
request the 1957 Legislature to re
imburse Multnomah County for
half the cost.
He said that the commissioners
had agreed to pay the bills, but
that "now, with political pressures
building up, they reverse them
selves." I W 1 1 V S

3rd Force
Dulles Says Bonn
Unifying Effort
' Not a Slap
WASHINGTON W ' Secretary
of State Dulles said Tuesday the
nations of Western Europe should
become a third great power in
world affairs. He called it unthink
able that they should be neutral
toward Soviet communism.
At a news conference, .Dulles
strongly endorsed efforts bv West
German Chancellor Adenauer and
others to convert the Western Eu
ropean Union into a stronger uni
fying force.
He said 'both President Eisen
hower and he favor this and do
not consider it to be a slap at the
United States.
: Appropriate Development
Under questioning whether Eu
rope should become a "third
force" as between Russia and the
United States, Dulles said he
thought it appropriate that Europe
should develop into a third great
power and he believed it Is within
the capacity of the European na
tions.
Unless they so develop, he add
ed, their future looks dubious. At
the same time he said it was
unthinkable that Christian coun-

communism.
Dulles made these major points
on other matters:
I. Talks between Yueoslav Pres.
ident Tito and Soviet leaders pre
sumably involve very serious
questions of relations between
Russia and Red satellite countries.
Dulles said he believes Tito favors
independence of the satellites
from Soviet domination w h i c h
means Dulles thinks Tito is seek
ing an objective favored by the
United States.

would not identify itself 100 per
cent with colonial powers because
it seeks friendly relations with
anticolonial countries.-
3. On a current political issue
Dulles defended United States
dealings with Argentine dictator
Juan Peron.
The record has been attacked
by Democratic candidates and
criticism has now been voiced by
Dr. Alberto Gainza Paz, editor of
La Prensa, who returned to
Buenos Aires when Pcron was
ousted. .
Dulles said Ihc Eisenhower ad
ministration had done nothing to
keep Peron in power or to inter
fere with forces that drove him
out.
He said he thought the United
States has a special role to play
in promoting the development of
independence in former colonial
areas by evolutionary-rattier than
violent, destructive processes of
revolution. ' -
The U.S. role now and in the
future, Dulles said, will be to try

23-year-old Silverton man, will be
arraigned Monday, oci. , on
charges of rape and contributing
to the delinquency of a minor.
Jackson, who lives at 331 Mc

after he had been indicted by a
Marion county grand jury. He is
being held in jail, having been
unable to raise 13,000 bail on the
rape charge and (1,500 on the de

While Jackson was reported to
be one of at least three persons
indicted by the grand jury, the
sheriff's office reported Tuesday

WASHINGTON Ifl President
Eisenhower's campaign foray into
Kentucky and Ohio pointed up how
he now is firing back at Adlai
Stevenson despite a September as
sertion he would leave the replies
to other Republicans. ' -
In a nationwide television-radio
address last night at Lexington,
Ky and in a speech during the
day at Cleveland, Ohio, Eisenhow
er replied to his Democratic op
ponent on a good many points al
though he never once , mentioned
Stevenson by name, .
Confused on Schools ', ,
The closest Eisenhower came to
naming Stevenson was to allude
to the Democratic nominee as an
"apparently confused candidate"
U II u
on the issue of federnl aid for ed
reference, brought
one of the biggest rounds of op
plause from the capacity crowd in
the 15,000-sent University of Ken
tucky Coliseum.
In the Lexington speech Eisen
hower also cut loose at the Democratic-controlled
Congress and
the Republican rally he was ad
dressing loved that, too.
All told, the crowd applauded 42
times during the President's talk.
He also got a rousing ovation when
he was introduced and when he
concluded. ,
' Eisenhower envisioned 70 mil
lion iobs "at ffood waecs" for
Americans if he is re-elected. He
reported September figures show
ing 66,100,000 persons at work. '
!'Ho'prcfaced "his jabs by saying
"political oratory ... at its most
reckless has plunged to the wild
extremes of charging this admin
istration with such fabulous fail
ings as not guarding the peace
and not caring-for the welfare of
any humble citizen or any needy
family in our land.
Can't Kccognlze Action
Then he added: ,
"We all know that there are
people who suffer from living in a
world of words and phrases for so
long that they can no longer recog
nize action when they see It."
The applause and laughter that
thrust touched off slill was echo
ing when Eisenhower got another
round after saying:
And when it comes to a
really critical matter like political
leadership we recall a fact that
all of us have seen in our own
daily lives: The longest lectures
almost always come from those
with the least experience."

$2,475,117 over the amount pro
vided in the present budget, ac
cording to preliminary budget re

department.
Of this amount $31,631,105 is re

general fund and the remaining
$39,737,479 will come from other
sources. It is estimated that the
federal government's contribution
to Oregon's welfare program will
be more than the $26 million fur
nished during the present bien
nium. Due to the expanded federal
road program the state highway
department has requested a $25,

None of this comes from the gen

By ERNEST VACCAKO
TEANECK, N.J. UP) Adlai E.
Stevenson challenged President
Elsenhower today to "take the
leadership" in a move to ban
hydrogen bomb tests and suggest
ed Russia is willing to go along.
Renewing his campaign call for .
an end to testing of large-scale
nuclear weapons, the Democratic
presidential nominee declared: ,
"The renunciation of such tests
Is a step which I think the great
powers are now willing to take -if
there is leadership in this di- '
rection. It Is a step that can be
safely .taken, for no one can ex
plode a hydrogen bomb in secret, ,
and each would know-whether the
others were ;acting in good faith.
It would be a step alone a new
path toward peace."
- Russia Obviously Included
Since only the United : States,
Britain and Russia are known to
possess nuclear weapons, Steven- '
son obviously Included Russia
when he said he thinks "the great
powers" are willing to suspend
H-bomb tests. '
Stevenson's assertion that a hy
drogen bomb cannot be exploded 1
"in secret" apparently was a renlv
to Elsenhower's Sept. 19 dismissal
of his proposals as a one-sided
"theatrical national gesture" in
in the absence of enforceable in
ternational agreements.
Mevenson, who accused the Ei
senhower administration last night '
ot tailing to provide leadership In

proposal for suspension of big-scale-

son scheduled in a day of slump
ing New Jersey after a flight- from
Washington. Included were an af
ternoon speech at Newark and a
rally tonight at Jersey City.
Hasn't Pressed Forward '
In his prepared Teantck
speech, Mevenson expressed rc-
gi-ct tlfut the Eisenhower adminis
tration,, as he .put it, "has not
pressed forward along this path
to peace as so many have urged ,
Catholic and Protestant religious,
leaders, distinguished scientists,
prominent educators, yes, and scr- (
ions politicians!"
Stevenson said also that the ad
ministration . "seems to have ig
nored what appears to; be an in
creasing desire to close the gap
between East and West on such
subjects as mutual inspection and
limitation of armed forces," ;
There Is a "danger" In insis-i
lenco on "perfect, foolproof an-!
swers, he said and added: '
"We must always press toward
those answers and not be content
until we get them. But we cannot
nlford to reject small gains;
"That the world. has never yet
achieved a system of universal
and enforceable ' disarmament
surely does not prove that it never
will." . - j
Should Explore Proposals
Surely, Stevenson continued, this
government should explore dis
armament proposals by others "lo
see whether they were made in
good faith and whether they will
meet our security requirements."
He said the Eisenhower admin
istration "has even withdrawn lis
own proposals when others Indi
cated a willingness to accept these
proposals." . , -
