SIXTEEN MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE Tueidar, July 29, 1952 Northwest a Likely Air Target in World War III Seattle, Wash third World War when and if will mean aerial attacks on the Pacific northwest but mostly military observers agree there is little danger of concerted enemy ground action except through Alaska. The soft, western underbelly Eagle Point Man Admits Molesting Children of Area Leland Henry Thomas, 52 Eagle Point, who is charged with contributing to the delinquency of a minor, has admitted molest ing some children in the Eagle Point area. Sheriff Howard Gault said today. . Noel Minnus Pence, 30, Cen tral Point, has been taken into custody on a warrant charging non-support, the sheriff added and is to be arraigned soon. Extradition papers are being prepared for Milton Edward Morgan, 25, on a warrant charg ing assault and robbery while armed with a dangerous weapon. and on Darrell Davis, 40, for a warrant charging obtaining mon ey under false pretense. Both Held Morgan is being held in In diana with bail set at $5,000, and Davis is at Reno, Nev. The lat ter is charged with passing sev eral bad checks in the Rogue River area and is also wanted by California authorities on four counts of forgery, Gault pointed out. W. J. Easter, Jacksonville, was fined yesterday by District Judge Rawles Moore to $100 and costs, according to court records, after he was found guilty by a jury of obstructing a county road. The fine is due by August 11 and if the fence is removed from the road by that date, the court will suspend 565 of the fine, Judge jvioore pomted out. Mossadegh Receives Vole of Confidence Tehran (U.R) The Iranian Parliament gave Premier Mo hammed Mossadegh an almost unanimous vote of confidence Tuesday and demanded confisca tion of his ousted predecessor's property. During the debate, several members of Mossadegh's Na tional Front attacked U.S. policy m Iran. They urged the expul sion of U.S. Army military ad visers and officials of other American agencies. "They are more of a liability than an asset to Iran," one deputy said. Another referred to the "dis graceful voting of the U.S. judge against Iran" at the World Court hearing on Britain's oil com plaint against this country. The majority of judges held that the court had no jurisdiction to hear the oil dispute. U.R) Theof Washington extends inland less than 50 miles. There, any attacking force would encounter the north-south spine of the Cas cade Mountains, a range higher, more rugged and better suited to defensive action than the terrain of Korea. If, by some ingenious feat of naval treachery, an enemy could amass enough ships for an in vasion and withstand U. S. naval and air strength long enough to iand a force in the northwest, he would in all probability be bottled on Washington's extreme western coast, an easy prey to relentless retaliation from both sea and air. Air Attack Questioned The Soviet Union is known to have a tremendous paratfooper force but the effectiveness of a long range airborne attack over great distances in the face of strong air defenses is question able. Washington and the remainder of the northwest is ringed with air bases, naval fleet and air stations and Army camps, all op erating on 24-hour alert. Within an hour's drive of Seattle are Paine and McChord Air Force Bases; two giant civil ian fields (Boeing and Seattle Tacoma), Fort Lewis and Camp Murray (Army), the Bremerton Naval Base and Whidby Island naval air station. Ready For Worst In Oregon, central and eastern Washington, in northern Idaho and Montana, are more, all manned and ready for the worst It would take an invasion from the sea to create a serious mili tary threat to the mainland. TkT i . a ixavai experts agree Kussia is not now capable of a full scale invasion from the sea. However, far to the north American and Russian territory nearly touch at the Arctic Circle. There Alaska and Siberia are separated only by a thin strip of frigid blue water, the often ice- choked Bering Strait. In winter the strait is frozen and it is possi ble for men to walk from the U.S.S.R. to Alaska. Would Need Help Lt. Gen. William H. Kenner. commander of all armed forces in Alaska, said "I'd need heln in a hurry if the Russians moved large numbers of troops against us . . . and I think thev could do it." He said present defense in Alaska could not withstand a sus tained attack but he said, too, Alaska would not be abandoned in case of attack. "We'd make every effort to keep any enemy from settina ud air bases or road networks," he said. The help he would need wnnlri come from the airmen, soldiers and sailors who are ready for anything today in the Pacific northwest. Ben Day Appointed To Forest Council Portland State Sen. Ben Day, Gold Hill, was one of 14 men named to a recently-organ ized U.S. Forest Service Pacific northwest regional advisory council, it was announced here by J. Herbert Stone, regional forester.

H e r a 1 d Campbell, Portland, has been reappointed a member of the ad visory committee of fair employ ment practices act, Gov. Douglas McKay said Tuesday. Young Wife Turns Male Over to Law Portland -(U.R) Donald Goodwin Gray Jr., 21, Portland, was jailed Tuesday after his teen-age wife, a knife-wielding escapee from the Multnomah county juvenile detention home, implicated him in a number of recent Portland area crimes. Seventeen-year-old Mrs. Hazel Gray, who forced a matron at knife-point to hand over keys to the doors at the home so she and three other inmates could es cape, surrendered to county of ficers and said she was tired of being a fugitive and living in the open. She made the accusations against Gray because, she said, she was angry when he could not find her a place to stay after aiding her in the escape last Thursday. Italian Explosion Tests Transformation Rome (U.R) Defense Min ister Randolfo Pacciardi said Monday night that an explosion had been set off in this country to test the possibility of trans forming small amounts of hydro gen into helium, but denied that Italy has the hydroeen bomb. Pacciardi said the blast merely a matter of some labora tory experiments" had been set off in a designated military area. He said a reDort nublished in a Rome newspaper that a hydro gen bomb had been exploded was without foundation. Korea Front Muddy As Rain Continues Seoul. Korea (U.R) Heavy rain lashed the mudbound Ko rean front for the 'fourth straight day Tuesday, but U. S. 2nd Division infantrymen killed 25 Chinese in a soggy pre-dawn skirmish on "Old Baldy" hill. Thirty other Reds were be lieved to have been wounded in the hour and 40-minute clash on the west-central front height. On the central front, a U. N. outpost beat off a Communist platoon in a half-hour exchange of rifle and machinegun fire that left five enemy dead at the Allied barbed wire.

SIPdDT NEWS By BOB AND JOE FOOD and GRAVY STAINS Foods and gravies are an especially common yet troublesome staining problem. ' Generally, these types of stains should be treated in the same manner as the so-called "tannin-like" stains. That is to say, on wash able garments, wipe off with moist cloth DAMPENED WITH WATER ONLY. Do not use soap, and do not iron until absolutely sure all of the stain has been washed out. The sooner you can clean out the stain, the better. On "dry-cleanable" garments, LEAVE THE STAIN ALONE. DO NOT RUB OR WIPE. This only causes the stain to penetrate the fabric fibers more thoroughly and makes the stains more difficult to remove. Above all, have the garment cleaned as seen as possible. Aged stains frequently become fixed permanently. And, finally, tell us when you bring your garment in that it has been stained. We'll emply our special spot digesting techniques and if it can still be done remove the stains entirely. - These precautions are especially recommended when it comes to food and gravy stains as both these substances are chemically so com plex. Naturally, the above also applies to salad dressing stains. With summer here, we take to eating salads with the inevitable result. Of course, after removing the stain by means of our special "spot digesting" processes, we then proceed with the standard cleaning pro cedures, until the garment is pressed neatly and hung, ready for you to take home.
