Communist Attacks
Turned Back by UN
Seoul (U.R) The Communists
threw more than 1,000 men
against United Nations lines in
eight probing attacks Monday
night and early Tuesday.
The enemy attacked between
the truce conference village of
Panmunjom and Korangpori
along a four-mile front west of
the Imjin river. The Reds tried
to soften up the Allied lines
with heavy artillery, mortar and
automatic weapons fire, then at
tacked in four company-sized
waves.
All the attacks were repulsed.
Not since December 28 have
the Communists been so aggres
sive in the Korangpori area of
the western front. -
The renewed assault may be
an indication the Reds have de
cided they need the territory and
are willing to pay for it in blood.

MEDFORD, OREGON, TUESDAY, MARCH 18, 1952
'Mr. President' Book Receives
Cool Reception by Congressmen
Key West, Fla. (U.R) Dis
closures in a new, intimate book
about President Truman brought
chilling reaction Tuesday from
veteran members of Congress
and a wrathful blast from James
F. Byrnes, former secretary of
state.
The book is "Mr. President,"
by William Hillman, a collection
of personal and official memor
anda, letters, diary excerpts and
exclusive interviews.
Byrnes Charges Lie
Byrnes, now governor of
South Carolina and a leader in
the Southern anti-Truman re
volt,, gave the lie to the presi
dent about a sharply worded let
ter Mr. Truman says he read to
Byrnes on Jan. 5, 1946, in ef
fect accusing him of assuming
too much authority in handling
U. S. foreign policy.
Hillman's book contained the
text of the letter, with an intro
Residents of East
Side Said Lackinq
Fire Protection
Because they are reluctant to
have a. new fire station built
in their own residential area,
east side property owners are
continuning to suffer the lack
of adequate fire protection, City
Superintendent Robert A. Duff
said today.
As soon as a satisfactory loca
tion can be purchased by the
city,- work on the new station
will begin, Duff stated. But up
to now the objection of adja
cent property owners has halted
negotiations for each piece of
property considered, he added.
The station ideally should be
located on a hill or near East
Main street, Duff explained, al
though certain other locations
would be suitable.
Property owners in many
cases believe property values
would drop if a fire station were
located in a residential vicinity,
Duff said, but he added that ex
perience has shown that in
creased fire protection, and an
attractive, well-kept station, are
assets, rather than detriments to
property values.
Sutton on Trial
For Bank
Robbery
New York (U.R) Willie (the
Actor) Sutton, an advocate of
crime without violence, went on
trial Tuesday for a $64,000 bank
robbery in a courthouse swarm
ing with guards and armed
plainclothesmen.
Measures ta t en to safeguard
principals in the trial were un
precedented. Even Judge Peter
T. Farrell was told he must show
a pass to be admitted.
The extraordinary precaution
was the result of an atmosphere
of fear and intimidation hanging
over the trial of Sutton and two
accused henchmen, Thomas (Mad
Dog) Kling and John De Venuta.
The man who led police to the
mild-mannered Sutton, 24-year-old
Arnold Schuster, was mur
dered March 8.
Frost Warning Expert
Arrives in Medford
Roy Rogers, federal meteorol
ogist in charge of frost warnings,
arrived in Medford Monday, ac
cording to the office of County
Agent W. B. Tucker. Rogers,
who has conducted a frost warn
ing service here for many years,
has set up his office in the county
courthouse, they said.
Rogers has urged Rogue valley
orchardists to bring thermome
ters to the courthouse immed
iately in order that they may
be checked for accuracy before
trees are susceptible to frost dam
age. The first thermometer tests
will be conducted Wednesday,
he said.
United Air Lines To
Keep Klamath Stop
Washington-UU.R) The Civil
Aeronautics board said Tuesday
it has decided against suspension
of United Air Lines services at
Salem, Bend, Klamath Falls,
Ore., and Bellingham, Wash.
The question of suspension
was disposed of when the board
renewed the operating authority
of West Coast airlines but elim
inated that line's Bellingham
Seattle route.
ductory note signed "H.S.T." fa
which the president said he read
it to Byrnes personally because
he wanted to emphasize its im
portance. Byrnes said he never heard of
the "letter" until the book went
on sale.
"Mr. Truman's statement that
he read the letter to me is abso
lutely untrue," Byrnes said.
"Had he done so, he would have
had to write another letter ac
cepting my resignation."
Another disclosure in the
book was that Mr. Truman fa
vors a 12-year limit on the ten
ure of any individual senator or
representative. That, he was
quoted as saying, would "help
cure senility and seniority both
terrible legislative diseases na
tionally." Regardless of party, members
of the House and Senate were

Eisenhower's Letter
Believed Leaves Way
Open for Return Home
Washington (U.R) Sen.

Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower has
kept the door "wide open" to
return to the United States be
fore the Republican convention
in July.
The Kansas Republican is di
rector of the national Eisen

headquarters here.
Refuses To Be Swayed
Having predicted time and
again that Eisenhower will re
turn from Europe before the
GOP nominating convention,
Carlson refused to be swayed by
a letter from the general made
public Monday by 19 House Re
publicans. The House members,
all Eisenhower supporters, had
urged the European defense com
mander fb come home and start
campaigning at once.
Eisenhower replied that, dur
ing the next few months, .."no
other job or mission that I can
discharge seems more important
than the one in which I am now
engaged." He said personal in
clinations, advice of friends or
"possibilities that lie ahead" can
not outweigh "an inescapable
and present duty."

While most of the letter dealt
with reasons why Eisenhower be

the New .Hampshire Republican

defeated Sen. Robert. A.' Taft of
Ohio by some 10,000 votes..
Another usually well-informed
source in the Eisenhower organ

Portland (U.R) An attorney
advised the Oregon School Ac

he believed the organization
"within the law" in banning
broadcasts of last week's state
class "B" basketball tournament
at Salem. '
Sam H. Wilderman, Portland,
advised Tom Pigott, secretary of
the association, that in his opin

"had no authority to broadcast
the games and your organization
would have been within the law
had the station been prevented
from so doing."
E. L. Parsons, manager of

ExRevenue Bureau
Head Called for
Secret Questioning
Chairman Refuses
To Discuss Session
Washington (U.R) Joseph
D. Nunan Jr., head of the Inter
nal Revenue Bureau from 1944
to mid-1947, was called before
House tax scandal investigators
Tuesday for secret questioning.
Chairman Cecil R. King, D-
Calif., refused to discuss the
unannounced closed-door session
of his ways and means sub-com
mittee. But other sources said
subcommittee members were
armed with a long list of ques
tions about Nunan's general con
duct of the tax bureau, and about
his legal work in behalf of tax
payer clients since he became a
private New York attorney June
30, 1947.
Settlements Charged
Sen. John J. Williams, R-Del.,
has charged that Nunan got ex
tremely favorable settlements
for a number of tax clients. The
Internal Revenue Bureau con
firmed that Nunan's New York
lawfirm got special wavers to
handle upwards of 100 tax cases
after his departure from the gov
ernment. The King group summoned
Nunan as the nationwide tax
scandals reached into the New
York City collector's office for
the second time in seven months.
Irregularity Found
Monroe D. Dowling, appointed
New York tax collector last
July, was ousted with the terse
explanation that Internal Reve

irregularity in one of his own
tax returns."
Officials declined to give any
further details of Dowling's
resignation - by - request except
that the tax return in question
was filed before he became a tax
collector.
Port of Entry
Deadlock Looms
Panmunjom (U.R) A new
deadlock loomed ahead in truce
negotiations on the subject of
ports of entry Tuesday but nego
tiators tackling the subject of
prisoner exchange appeared to
be making progress.
The Communists submitted a
list of ports of entry that in ef
fect would cloak Pyongyang, the
North Korean capital, trom neu
tral observations during the ar
mistice, and at the same time
would prohibit allied military
traffic through the busy airfields
in and near Seoul.
Red staff officers in the armis
tice terms meeting excluded both
Seoul and Pyongyang from their
list of five Communist-held and
five Allied held ports of entry.
The United Nations had propos
ed the two capitals Monday,
along with their natural harbor
outlets, Inchon and Cbinnampo,
respectively.
The meeting adjourned after
two hours and 16 minutes of
talking. No progress was made.
Road Conditions

help. The nearest neighbor was
the girl's uncle, June Shupe.
June Shupe and a friend ran
to the well and lowered a rope.
Lois, splashing in the cold
water, was calm enough to fol
low instructions. She tied the
rope around her waist and was
pulled to the surface about 30
minutes after she fell in. Her
snow suit was soaked but she
wasn't bruised.
To Be More Careful
Lois said she'd be more care
ful next time she went looking
for cows. Her father, who ar
rived home after his daughter
was rescued, embraced the girl
and said "I hope I never get an
other call like that one."
Signs had been posted around

Ellsworth Demands
Congress Probe
Indian Land Sale
"Washington (U.R) Rep.
Harris Ellsworth (R., Ore.) has
demanded a congressional in
vestigation of the disposition of
Indian lands held in trust by the
Bureau of Indian Affairs.
Offers Resolution
The congressman offered in
the House Monday a resolution
which would direct the interior
and insular affairs committee
of the House "to investigate
the sale of Indian lands in the
state of Oregon; to make any
recommendations to Congress for
changes in the law as may be
necessary, and to make any rec
ommendations to the attorney
general which may be deemed
warranted as a basis for action
by the department of justice."
Ellsworth told the House that
the people of Oregon are "high
ly incensed" over recent re
ports about the disposition of
Indian lands.
He claimed there have been
"repeated instances of dispo
sition of lands at a fraction of
their values; the failure to use
public notices or bid procedures;
the use of third parties in land
transactions who have profit
ed handsomely for lending their
names to give the color of le
