MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD. OREGON. FRIDAY. JUNE 14, 1940. PAGE FIVE BY HIILERIIES; (Continued from tttft One.) lsh troops rushing to support their beleaguered French allies. Madrid announced that Span ish troops have occupied the in ternational zone of Tangier in the name of the Sultan of Mo rocco "to safeguard the indepen dence and neutrality of the city" . . . which lies opposite the Brit ish stronghold of Gibraltar, guardian rock of the Mediterra nean. Action Not Clear It was not immediately appar ent whether this action heralded the entrance of Spain into the fast-widening European conflict Hitler's legions began march ing into Paris yesterday after noon. It was the first time since Bis marck's troops took Paris in 1071 that Germany's goose-stepping warriors have marched into the beautiful old French capital. In France's blackest hour, Bri tain rushed new reinforcements of British Tommies behind Paris to bolster the morale and fight ing strength of the desperately driven French. Weakening French resistance was indicated in a heavily-censored dispatch from Tours stat ing that a new, French defense line would be taken up anew on the Loire river, 65 miles south of Paris, "if the fight goes on." Censor Busy Dozens of lines in the dispatch were censored, but it was evi dent from the number of im portant German gains which the censor permitted to go through including a major new threat to the Maginot fine itself that the Associated Press correspon dent was trying to tell of even greater events. The Nazi high command said Montmedy, vital northern anch or on the Mr.ginot line, has been captured and declared there has been "complete collapse" of the French all along the 200-mile western fropt. France's high command, how ever, insisted the French retreat was being carried out "in the greatest order." Adolf Hitler ordered all Ger many beflagged for three days and all church bells throughout the reich to ring for IS minutes today in celebration of the vic tory. Drive Deep Wedge The German high command reported "complete collapse" 'of the Weygand line all along the 200-mile western front from the English Channel to Montmedy, at the northwest end of the Maginot line. Two deep German wedges be hind the Maginot forts consti tuting a grave threat to 1.000, 000 men stationed in the great French fortifications on the Rhine were driven overnight to Romilly, 65 miles southeast of Paris, and to Saint Dizier, 125 miles southeast of the French capital. Italy, meanwhile, reported its first land action, a successful de fense against a French attack on Galisia hill, 36 miles north west of Turin on the Alpine frontier. The fascist high command also claimed the capture of a number of English officers in repulsing an attack in Italian North Africa; defeat of a tank supported allied attack on the Egyptian-Libyan frontier, and successful aerial operations over southeastern France, Tunisia and on the Red sea.

UNITED 1 LINES EQUIPMENT HERE A completely new set of ra dio equipment is being installed by company engineers in the United Air Lines control room at Medford municipal airport. The installation will give the airline's station here the most modern equipment used in ground-to-plane radio communi cation and control, said Max C. Henne, Medford manager. The work is being done by two of the company's radio en gineers. William M. McKay and Cyrus T. Lingo. The two men are assembling the equipment at the company's store-room in the hangar. They travel about the country by truck and trail er, the trailer carrying a com plete portable workshop which they set up at each United sta tion where radio replacements are being made. It will take about two weeks to complete the installation. When the ticket office and control room have been mod ernized, the company will place additional furniture in the re ception room to make it more comfortable and attractive, Mr. Henne related. Blakely of The Dalles as their new president last night Only 50 members, the oldest 96, attended the annual meet ing, 16 less than year ago. Residence in Oregon in 1859, the year of statehood, is a mem bership requisite, making it im possible for the youngest Pio neer to be less than 81 years old. Blakely succeeded George J. Curren but all other officers were re-elected. J. O. Stearns continued as vice president; Walter L. Hembree. secretary; John M. Lewis, treasurer. Clementena Martin of Glad stone, a small, erect figure bora in Marion county in 1854, was crowned queen mother by Amande J. Hart, past president of the Sons and Daughters of Oregion Pioneers.
