PENDLETON BOY'S
CLAIM GIRL SHOT
IN HEAD UPHELD
Pendleton, Ore:, Oct. 16-4U.R)
A second examination today re
vealed that 16-year-old June Rei
man was shot in the head as
claimed by her 14 -.year -old
schoolmate,- Ronald Elder,
charged with the girl's murder.
Young Elder told arresting of
ficers he had been hunting with
the girl when he had a sudden
impulse to attack her. He said he
was carrying her small-caliber
gun and fired at the back of her
head. She fell on her face but
he was frightened away after
removing part of her clothing.
All parts of his- story dove
tailed with the evidence except
the shooting claim, since Dr.
Joseph Beeman, state criminolo
gist, found no bullet wound in
her head. The re-examinations,
however, revealed the bullet en
tered, her head just above the
hairline and emerged below her
left -eye, where a severe bruise
had hidden the wound.
Repentant and moody, the boy
was held in the Umatilla county
jail, awaiting his hearing in Ju
venile court Monday. It was an
ticipated he would be held' to
trial In circuit court.
The girl's body was found in
a thicket last Sunday night when
she failed to return home from
hunting squirrels. The neighbor
boy joined searchers in the hunt
for her assailant but suspicion
was directed to him when a mud
print near the body was found
to match his corduroy trousers,
He was an average boy in
school, good In his studies and
with; an interest for dramatics
He seemed unable to explain why
he killed his friend. -

"...AS A CITIZEN I'm supposed to give the orders... to tell this big shot
or that whether he is to remain a big shot or not. It I'm to give the orders
as in a democracy the voters, the little men, must then I want certain
information. Or my orders are likely to go haywire." "
- JOHN CITIZEN, Main Street American, In "let the People Know,"-by Norman Angell
J
ohn CrnzeN of 1 943 is more full of curiosity, less cocksure of
the answers, hungrier for information than he has ever been.
He's hungry for news, of course, on how the war is going and
what kind of peace will be written when it's over. But the ques
tions he's asking go much farther. The facts that he wants no
Government spokesman, no editor, no commentator can bring
him in full. To many of his questions, only industry can give
. the answers.
. ..
"How well is industry doing its part in the war?"
"What is industry doing now to help assure me an opportunity
and an income when peace returns?"
"How is industry planning to give us a better world?"
' By industry, John Citizen doesn't mean just the giants. He
means the plant around the corner, too . . . the factory that em
ploys people like him in his own city ... the company whose
payroll means sales for local stores, tax money for local improve
ments, a better city in which John Citizen, and his sons who'll
come marching home, can live and prosper after the war. In fact,
he's looking to all business and industry for the answers.
Being fact-minded . , . wanting his answers complete and visual
as well as fast . . . interested in the news as never before . , . it's
only natural for John Citizen and.his family, to turn to their
newspapers with unparalleled eagerness, to read- them with a
thoroughness never equaled. . - ' .'
Increasingly, in their newspaper Mr. and Mrs. John Citizen
are finding the kind of answers they seek from industry. To
industry's story, as told today in newspaper advertising, they are
already giving a degree of attention seldom before won by adver
tising of any kind ... a fact attested scientifically by The Con
tinuing Study of Newspaper Reading and confirmed again and
again by the experiences of industrial advertisers.
To executives who have not yet seized the opportunity, this new
public awakening to industry's message signals a chance to build
for the future ... a chance to find a new high J. ; ror itself in
the hearts as well as the minds of millions. v
For the millions who hold in their hands the destiny of industry,
both great and small, are the same millions who are looking first
to their newspapers for full information on. today's war and
tomorrow's peace. .
Industry, too, must let the people know , the people who'll
issue tomorrow's orders ,t,the people who are reading the
newspapers today.
