Experimental Plane Lands at Airport An experimental version of United Air lines' new Convair liner made an unscheduled stop at the Medford airport at about noon yesterday. A number of Sunday drivers and air-minded residents went to the airport to inspect the ship. The new plane is much larger than the two-engined DC-3 now used here by United, and it is both faster and quieter, which was one reason so many resi dents noticed it w hen it circled for a landing. Pilots William Carrier, of Con solidated Vultee, and Lester Coan, of the Civil Aeronautics authority, flew the ship, and a number of CAA representatives and Consolidated engineers were also aboard. The plane, known as Model 340, will be delivered to the air line within the next few months to provide improved service to intermediate cities on the air line's routes. Company represen tatives say it is the largest and finest twin-engined, pressurized commercial transport ever or dered by an airline. It carries 44 passengers at a cruising speed of nearly 300 milesper hour.

Polish Citizens Get Right To Own Individual Farms London (U.R) The draft of the new Polish constitution gives Polish citizens only one right which Soviet cimtizens do not have the right to own individ ual farms. In every other important mat ter the provisions of the new constitution are identical with that of the Soviet constitution of 1936. According to the text of the draft published in Pravda, the newspaper of the Soviet Commu nist party, "the Polish People's Republic protects individual farms of working peasants and gives them help to avoid capital ist exploitation, aiming at in creasing their production and well-being." An emphatic indication of the real position of individual farm ers as compared to those' who have joined collective or co-operative farms is given in the next paragraph dealing with agricul ture: "The Polish People's Republic gives special support and every kind of help to agricultural pro duction cooperatives established on a voluntary basis as a form of collective economic enterprises." The other rights of Polish citi zens are to be exactly the same as those promised to Soviet citi zens. With Reservations They will have "freedom of speech, ' freedom of the press, freedom of assembly and mass meetings, freedom of street pro cessions and demonstrations," but only approved workers' or ganizations are allowed to run printing plants, radio stations and newspapers. The citizens are guaranteed "inviolability of person and of the home," as well as the right to work, to rest, to receive as sistance when unable to work, and the right to education. Freedom of conscience and re ligion is also guaranteed, but the constitution threatens with punishment those who "abuse this freedom for the purpose of endangering the interests of the Polish Republic. Supreme power in the repub lic is to be vested in the Sejm (parliament) but there is no pro vision for representation in this body of any opposition carties. When the Sejm is not sitting, the country is to be governed by a council of state having the prerogatives of the Presidium of Daily Weather Report FORECASTS ' Medford and vicinity: Rain this eve ning and showers Tuesday.

Asylum Offered In the same way as the Soviet constitution, the new Polish con stitution undertakes to "grant the right of asylum to foreign citizens persecuted for defend ing the interests of the working class, or for their scientific activities or for their struggle for national liberation." An additional provision of the new Polish constitution compels the state "to limit, push out and liquidate social classes which live by exploiting the workers and peasants." This provision is not contained in the Soviet con stitution because the classes in question were liquidated in Rus sia Deiore 1836. An unprecedented fact in anv similar document, the new con stitution openly acknowledges the influence of Soviet Russia on the life of Poland. It savs- "The foundation of the exist ing peoples government in Po land is the alliance of the work ers and the peasants. Trip 1 part ing role in this alliance belongs to tne working class as the most progressive class of society guided by the achievement's of the Polish and international working class movement and by the historical experience of the victorious building of Socialism in the USSR, the first state of workers and peasants." Starlings Become Washington Nuisance Washington-U.R) The latest battle in man's strueele aeainst nature is taking place in Wash ington. The battle has been brewing for the last 20 years or so. Dur ing that time, Washington build ings have become the roosting places for aDoroximatelv 14.000 members of the family icteridae or starlings. These fat little black birds have become a complete nui sance. ? ' Science has come again to the aid of suffering humanity. A "birdproof" wire has been de vised which makes things, "hot" for these twittering pests. The device, described bv its inventor as "an electronic sys tem of parallel wires run into areas where birds roost, nest, or congregate," gives the bird a mud "hot foot" when it at tempts to pause under an eve, on a ledge, or in a cornice. It has been pointed out, how ever, that these winged resi dents of Washington have' weathered many previous man made storms. At various times in the past, the starlings have re mained at their perches and emerged victorious pver toy bal loons filled with gas, volleys of pistol blanks, noisy rattles, drenchings with water, owls placed on window ledges, gas attacks, and rattling cans filled Follow His Adventures in the Comic Page Every Day When BUZ SAWYER starts an assign ment, there's plenty of adventure ahead.

Circuit-Riding Pastor Uses Station Wagon Washburn, Wis. (U.R) The circuit-riding parson of yester year has returned with a station wagon instead of a horse. The Rev. Charles E.
