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.
Typographical Union
Representatives Meet
More than 50 delegates and
wives attended the banquet of
the annual Oregon Typograph
ical conference here Saturday.
Members from all sections of
the state attended.
The meetings are held so that
members can "keep in touch" on
mutual problems, according to
Clark Anderson, president of
the ITU in. Medford. Discussion
sessions were held both Satur
day afternoon and Sunday morn
ing.
Two representatives of the in
ternational union spoke at the
banquet Saturday. Entertain
ment was furnished by John
Eads, Medford magician, and
two 12-year-old Grants Pass
girls, Joanna Lester, who sang,
and Deanna Broer, accompanist.
The banquet was at the Jack
son hotel.
Brothers Devise Plan
To Serve Jail Term
Cleveland, O. (U.R) Robert
J. and William Williams, broth
ers, have worked out a plan to
avoid serving full time for a
larceny charge.
Under an agreement with the
chief probation officer James
Henahan and Judge John W.
Hackett, one brother stays in
jail and the other is released to
work off the fine.
The Williams brothers figur
ed it would take about 177 days
in jail at the rate of $3 a day, to
wipe out their $531 debt fines
and costs on both.
So, it has been decided that
27-year-old William will drive a
truck, under supervision by
Henahan, while. his 26-year-old
brother stays in Jail.
Strike Not Affecting
T railways Schedules
A recent drop in travel was
reported today by Lyle D.
Rogers, Medford Continental Pa
cific Trailways bus lines agent.
Rogers believes potential trav
elers think the lines are out on
strike. All regular schedules are
running, he said.
All service into SanFrancisco
is on schedule and the only com
pany service on strike is south
from Oakland, Calif., to San
Diego, and from Los Angeles to
Phoenix, Ariz., on Continental
Western Trailways lines, a dif
ferent branch.

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

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

Circuit-Riding Pastor
Uses Station Wagon
Washburn, Wis. (U.R) The

The Rev. Charles E. Browne

"mobile minister."
In his station wagon are a pub
