Mercy Plane's Emergency Trip May Have Saved Woman's Life Another life has presumably been saved by Jackson coun ty's Mercy Flights ambulance plane. "Rogue's Wings o' Mercy," the twin-engined ambulance ship, Friday flew from Medford to Lakcview, picked up a badly in jured Medford woman and took her to Portland, where she is re- Eorted doing well at Providence ospital. The woman, Mrs. Margie Lor raine Holt. 22. and her husband, Eugene, both of Medford. were injured in an automobile acci dent near Lakcview early Thurs day morning. They were both hospitalized. Mrs. Holt with a broken back. According to Mer cy Flights officials, physicians at Lakcview said that she might be paralyzed for life, and might not survive if she did not receive a delicate operation on her dam aged .pine, and soon. Nearest fa cilities for such an operation Both the railroad and tele phone strikes are scheduled to start next Wednesday, but offi cials bf the CIO communications workers in negotiations at New York announced that 11,000 Western Electric installation workers will walk off the job Monday unless settlement of a side issue is reached. The big telephone strike Wed nesday also would involve about 21,000 long lines operators in 40 states and 5.500 repair and sales employees. Efforts to settle the dispute with installation work ers failed after a four-hour meet ing today, but further attempts were scheduled for tomorrow. Walkouts already had begun among the installation workers. However, if all installation work ers walk out Monday there still would be no major disruption of telephone service because the union said no picket lines would be set up and other telephone workers will continue on the job until Wednesday at least. Came Before Truce End The installation walkouts among members of the union's district 6 came four days before expiration of a 60-day "truce" arranged by President Truman. They began in Oregon. Washing ton. Idaho and New York and spread to other states. The walkouts were precipitat ed by an alleged "lockout and firing' of about 100 installation workers at South Bend. Ind. But at Indianapolis, telephone com pany officials denied there was a lockout. They said 100 workers had staged a 25-day work stop page, refusing to cross muddy fields to work on television tow ers under construction across northern Indiana. Little Hope Seen In the rail dispute, there ap ocared to be little hope of head ing off a walkout by 18.000 firemen and enginemen against four rail systems comprising sev en major roads and numerous subsidiaries. The Southern railway, one of the south's heaviest freight and cotton haulers, announced it would suspend all freight, pas senger and mail service if the strike is called. Al L. Buchanan Escapes Injury in Train Crash A. L. Buchanan, 62, route 1, box '283A, escaped injury at about 4:30 p. m.

Indignant Porker Takes Revenge; Employee of Abbatoir Gets Stabbed Walter Faux, 43, of route box 285, it in Community hos pital recovering from a deep knife wound in hii back which he sustained Saturday morn ing in an altercation with a belligerent hog at the Crater Meat company on Midway road. Conger Morris ambulance attendants, who took Faux to the hospital, said he was in the process of sticking hogs at the Crater Meat abbatoir, when one squealing porker kicked the knife out of his hand. The knife was knocked about 10 feet into the air and when it fell it buried itself squarely between Faux't shoulder blades. Hospital attendants aid his condition is satisfac tory. were In Portland. Relatives desperately tried to obtain air transportation for the injured woman, but none ap nea red to be available until they remembered stories about the Mercy Flights plane. A phone call was immediately placed to George Milligan, chairman of the non-profit corporation, and in less than an hour the plane was on the way with Milligan as pi lot and John Applegate, airport manager, as co-pilot. The plane left here about 1:45 p. m. Friday, arrived in Lake view in about an hour, and the woman was placed on a stretch er in the plane. Accompanied by Nurse Jean' Alger, the plane re turner to Medford for refueling and then left for Portland with Eugene Koozcr and Bill Plaskctt at the controls. It arrived in Portland at 8:09 p. m.

Two Czechs Given Death Sentences As Alleged Spies Others Sentenced To Prison Terms Prague, Czechoslovakia, Apr. 22 (U.R) Two Czechoslovaks were sentenced to death today as alleged spies for the United States and almost simultaneous ly the U. S. information service closed its doors for good at the request of the Czech govern ment. Maj. Jaromir Ncchansky, 34, a former British paratrooper, and Veleslav Wahl, a 28-year-old student alleged master minds of an American-organized spy ring were sentenced to hang by the state court in Pan krac prison after a three-day trial.

Large Turnout ; Urged for Voting Central Point, Apr. 22 School officials of consolidated district No. 6 yesterday pointed to over crowded facilities and urged a large turnout at the polls on Monday, April 24, when school patrons will revote on a $500,- 000 bond issue. The bond measure, for con structing a new high school at Central Foint, was previously affirmed by voters in November. However, the second election is necessary to satisfy a Portland bonding attorney who questioned the legality of the issue. Polls will be opened from 2 to 8 p. m. at the Gold Hill school gymnasium. Persons registered in precinct 69 (Central Point west), 70 (Cen tral Point northeast), 71 (Central Point southeast), 72 (Willow Springs), 73 (Mound) and 74 (Sams Valley) will ballot at Cen tral Point. Those registered in 78 (Gold Hill), 79 (Gold Hill south), 80 (Foots Creek) and 76 (Rogue River) will vote at Gold Hill. Legal voters must be reg istered 30 days before the elec tion. School officials said that in creased enrollments have over crowded present rooms and as lower grades of 100 or more pupils move on to up grades there is no place to put them. Moving the present high school here out will provide at least nine more rooms and care for future growth for some time. BOMBING POSTPONED March Field, Cal., Apr. 22 U.R) The 15th air force bomb ing competition, scheduled here for May 1-3, was postponed in definitely today to give one of the contestants more time for training. Koozcr and Plaskctt returned to Medford Saturday morning and reported that hospital phy sicians have great hope that Mrs. Holt will recover. The Holts are parents of two children, who are now staying with their grandmother in Tal ent. They were en route to Wil low Ranch. Cal., 22 miles south of Lakevicw. when the accident happened. Holt told police of ficers that he thought he had been sideswiped by another car, causing his vehicle to leave the road. He was only slightly in jured. This Is the third emergency flight made by the mercy chip since it was put into service in January. In addition, officers of Mercy Flights have made ar rangements for air transporta tion by military craft on two other emergency cases when "Wings o' Mercy" was under going maintenance. ?imi mmi sen m hillside 'Armt Tehphoto) RIOT EXERCISE Members of the 16th U.

The. man who died was Marcial Debace of Manila. Boarded By Reds The yacht was boarded by Chinese communist soldiers when it arrived at Kwangchow- an, on Luchow peninsula. The men had thought they were headed for "French territory," on the basis of a map they car ried. Debace drowned . when two communist soldiers jumped into a dinghy and capsized it. The Australian, Ray Goodwin, leaped in and rescued Debace but the communists refused to give him medical aid and he died, the sur vivors reported. The men were questioned and then confined to a hotel room. They were not permitted to com municate with anyone. They said they were impris oned in Kwangchowan for a month, during which several Chinese girls risked their lives by smuggling the men food. The men said that on March 15, the communists packed them into a truck and drove them to Canton, with th ereds sitting by with cocked pistols. The trip to Canton took three days. There they were lodged in a prison cell 11 by 16 feet, with a 16-inch plank for a bed. The men said their food con sisted of black soggy rice, with a couple of spoonfuls of vege tables. The Ross boy became ill and was hospitalized. According to the group, it took several weeks to get a mosquito net for Goodwin, who suffers from malaria. The men said that on April 20 they were put on a train and taken to the China-British bor der, where their passports and other papers were returned. They said they signed a docu ment stating they had not been ill-treated. They were given shel ter at the British border police station. The yacht is still at Kwang chowan, where It was said to have been hit by a bomb. Xattle-at-Large Case Dismissed The case of the state of Ore gon versus Alfred Peilc and J. E. Hannah, who were charged with permitting cattle to run at large in a closed area, was dis missed in county justice court Friday afternoon in an action which In effect declared the herd district in the Eagle Point-Shady Cove area Is null and void. The two stockmen were ac cused of allowing their cattle to run at large In the livestock dis trict an area where untended livestock are not permitted Judge W. P. Tucker of the Jus tice court said the case was thrown out because the defend ants proved the district did not meet the legal requirements pre scribed by Oregon laws of 1947 and 1949. According to law. Tucker said, a herd district must comprise not less than 1,000 acres. The complainant in Fri day's case could not show the existence of more than 975 acres. The district was formed In 1948. 'Very Mysterious' Developments Seen In Amerasia Theft Full Story Will Reveal Spy Network Washington, Apr. 22 Sen. Bourke B. Hickenlooper, (R la.) said tonight that new and "very mysterious" developments have come to light in the Amerasia document theft case. That is the case which Sun. Joseph R. McCarthy, (R., Wis.), has declared will reveal a "most important Soviet espionage" net work when the fully story conies out. To Get At Bottom A senate foreign relations sub committee investigating McCar thy's charges of communism in the state department has prom ised to 'get to the roots" of the new Amerasia developments. Meanwhile, attorneys for Owen Lattimore, the Far East ern expert accused by McCarthy of being a communist spy, asked the subcommittee to continue in public all hearings bearing on their client. The attorneys also asked Chairman Millard E. Tydings (D.. Md.), to let Lattimore answer each hostile witness immediate ly after the witness testifies, and to examine all documents or other material presented in evi dence. Former Communist Leader Louis F. Budenz, who testified publicly last Thursday that party officials told him Lattimore was a communist, is scheduled to testify again in closed session on Tuesday. Hickenlooper, a member of the subcommittee Investigating, told reporters that "some elements not heretofore known publicly" have become available. Nearly $1 Million Needed by Rural Schools in 1950-51 The Jackson county rural school board has completed its work of auditing the budgets of individual rural districts and an nounced yesterday- that it will require $951,553.62 to operate about 25 rural schools during the 1950-51 school year. That is nearly $100,000 less than the budget of the board for last year. The budget must be submitted to a vote by residents in the dis trict since it exceeds the six per cent limitation by $719,756.20. The routine of approving the budget by vote has been required for many years and County School Superintendent C. R. Bowman said this will continue to be the case "because the levy base of $237,797.42 is entirely inadequate. He said failure to get the approval of the voters to make the required equalized levy over the county would force each of the individual dis tricts to raise approximately three-fourths of their levies themselves. The budget election has been. set for May 15. SPORTSBlLETINS Marysville, Cal..

C-54 WRECKAGE FOUND SOUTHWEST OF TOKYO; NO SURVIVORS SPOTTED Tokyo. Japan. Sunday, Apr. 23 (U.R) American and Japanese ground patrols today reached the wreckage of a C-S4 transport carrying 35 Americans which crashed into a moua slope southwest of Tokyo. The pilot of one of two helicopters hovering over the scene on a 4,600-foot mountain peak radioed that the ground patrols reached the wreckage about 2 p.m. There were no reports of survivors, and a B-17 that flew over earlier saw no sign of life. Tokyo, Sunday, Apr. 23 (U.R) The wreckage of a C-54 plana that carried 35 Americans was found on a mountain slope south west of Tokya today by a B-17 search plane. The B-17 crew reported that there was no sign of survivors and that the wreckage was strewn over a wide area. Headquarters for the search for the C-54, which crashed Friday as it was returning from Manila, announced officially that the wreckage had been spotted on the south side of Mount Hirugatake at 12:20 p.m. today. The announcement said the wreckage was identified by a number on the side of the plane. Ground rescue squads trudging through rugged terrain had not yet reached the scene. A helicopter arrived at the area and hovered over the wreck age to direct the ground parties. Southwest of Tokyo The B-17. flying by instru ments in cloudy and misty wea ther, spotted and identified the crashed plane through a break in the clouds. The scene of the crash is in the Tanzawa range, about 60 miles southwest of Tokyo. An earlier, unconfirmed re port said a 300-man American ground party had sighted the wreckage on Mount Hirugatake, three fourths of the way up the south side. The party was among 80 pa trols of American troops and Japanese that blanketed moun tain slopes in the area through out the day hunting the plane. Altogether 2,700 Americans and 800 Japanese participated in the hunt, which probably was the greatest search expedition ever carried out here. There still was slight hope that the Datrols might reach the wreckage of the plane, which crashed and burned late Friday as lt returned from the Philip pines, in time to find some of the 27 passengers and eignt crew members alive. Notables Aboard The passengers were reported to have included five nign occu pation officials, one a woman, from Gen. Douglas MacArthur's headquarters. They had negotiat ed a Japanese-Philippines trade agreement at Manila. Others reported on the plane included two women, two chil dren. 15 army officers, nine en listed men, an international busi ness machine representative and a member of the army's Philip pine command. - Rain and a 300-foot celling grounded most planes attempt ing to snot the wreckage from the air. However, two L-5 obser vation planes hovered over the 5,400-foot Mount Hirugatake. Search Parties Sent At dawn, ground search par- tics set out from villages around two mountain peaks. Japanese and American searchers went nut from camp sites in and near this village, which was being ised by Japanese police as search headquarters under District ;ommander msao Yamagucm. The army and air force fur nished all patrols with "walkie- olkic radois and sent radio men long with the Japanese teams. Military police jeeps parked at the foot of the mauntains were orepared to relay messages to the search commanders and, if possible, establish contact with nlancs overhead. Toko.
