Jap Prayers Observe
Seve nth Ann i v e r sa ry
Hiroshima Bombing
Hiroshima (U.R) Some
2,000 Japaneses bowed their
heads in a minute of silent pray
er Wednesday, and then, at 8:15
turn., exactly . seven years after
the first atom bomb used in war
fell in Hiroshima, the city bells
and sirens sounded.
Five children' orphaned in the
famous blast unveiled a memor
ial monument as a British plane
circled overhead dropping flow
er wreaths in respect to the Hiro
shima dead.
Dead Estimate Differs
'' Japanese filed into temples
and shrine in this city to pray
for. the thousands who died on
Aug. 6, 1945. The Japanese in
sist that more than 200,000 were
killed in .the explosion and by
its' after-effects. The American
Garden Notes
C. B. CORDY
- County Extension
Agent for Horticulture
. . Lawn . weeds are one of the
biggest annoyances of the home
gardener. Dandelion and plan
tain used to be the worst weeds
in our lawns, but with the ad
vent of'2,4-D they were easily
controlled and are not nearly as
prevalent as . they used to be.
Crab grass and Bermuda grass
are the worst offenders now, and
while there are chemicals avail
able for their control they do
not work nearly as well as the
2,-D does on the broad-leaved
wr;eds.
. There is a good deal of con
fusion between crab grass and
Bermuda grass. In order to get
control it is essential to know
which one you have. The Ber
muda grass is a fine-leaved grass
very similar to our lawn grasses
'and it develops a heavy turf.
Crab grass is an annual and
while it has a grass leaf, it is a
little broader and has a differ
ent color from other lawn grass
es. Both crab and Bermuda grass
develop a 5-fingered seed head.
Work on Crab Grass
There are two chemicals on
the market which are very good
for crab grass control, but they
are not good on Bermuda. One
of these is potassium cyanate,
and the other is an organic mer
cury. Both of these can be pur
chased at seed stores under a
great variety of trade names.
The cyanate is applied as a
spray, whereas the mercury can
be applied as a spray, whereas
the mercury can be applied
either as a spray or as a powder.
If the material is to be sprayed
on, it can be applied with a
small 3-gallon sprayer, with a
sprinkling can, or from a small
bottle with a clothes sprinkling
attachment. The sprinkling can
is very simple-but is wasteful,
and the materials are rather ex
pensive. In any event, the direc
tions, that come with the mater
ials . should i be very closely
followed. 1
Best results are obtained by
treating the crab grass in the
seedling stage. As it is now well
beyond that stage it is necessary
to increase' the ; concentration,
and as a result the lawn grasses
will be severely injured along
with the crab grass. As the lawn
grasses are perennial they will
again sprout from the roots, and
while they will look pretty bad
for' several weeks, by fall they
would be well recovered. The
crab grass is an annual, so if
seed formation .is prevented it
can eventually be eliminated. As
all the need does not germinate
in one year it will take two or
three years of treatment to bring
it Under control. A careful wat
ering and fertilization program
should be followed at the same
time in order to thicken up the
stand of grass so that it can bet
ter compete with the crab grass.
estimate of the dead was 80,000.
The city looks today as if it
never had seen war. It has 20
motion picture - theaters, twice
the number of old Hiroshima.
There are 2,000 restaurants and
tea shops.
When a building ,is constructed
the workers sometimes find bod
ies of atom bomb victims .but
otherwise there are few traces
of the historic explosion.
Bombing Not Forgotten
. But the bombing of Hiroshima
is not forgotten in the Japanese
press.
A special report printed in the
Nippon Times Wednesday gave
a graphic description of how a
little girl was made to look "like
a living corpse" in the explo
sion.
Another newspaper, referring
to the government's recent plan
for building up Japan's army,
commented: "August 6th is the
anniversary of the A-bomb. This
is the one day on which the
prime minister who favors the
strengthening of. Japan's armed
forces and the people should
take time out for cool reflec
tion."
Other newspapers also men
tioned the bombing, some of
them just in passing.
Chicago Racketeer
Victim of Cancer,
Wife Discloses
Chicago (U.PJ Police have
learned that Theodore Roe, slain
policy racketeer, was dying of
an incurable cancer, and had
little fear of other underworld
kingpins and their paid killers.
One source said that Roe had
known he was a marked man
a target of gansters' guns and
said he only hoped he would be
able to "take one of them with
me."
Less Than Year to Live
The murdered gambler's wife
told police Tuesday that doctors
had told her husband he had
less than a year to live. She said
he suffered frbm an abdominal
cancer; .
Roe was the last bigtime gam
bler to defy the Capone syndi
cate and get away with it. Mon
day night his enemies caught up
with him in front of his richly
furnished South Side home and
fired three shotgun blasts into
his body. The millionaire Negro
fell dead in the gutter.
Lt. John Golden of the homi
cide detail said his officers were
searching for Marshall Caifano,
brother of Leonard (Fat Lenny)
Caifano, who was shotand kill
ed last year when he tried to
kidnap the fast-shooting, quick-on-the-draw
Roe.
Rumors said that police were
also trying to find Tony Accardo
and Jake (Greasy Thumb) Gu
zik, two big shots in the Chica
go underworld.
Counterfeiters Guilty;
Released by Police
Milan, Italy U.R) Bewild
ered police released a band of
counterfeiters Wednesday, even
though the culprits admitted
striking off a batch of bogus
British golden sovereigns.
Police could not hold the men
because the coins contained the
same amount of gold as the bona
fide sovereigns. The counter
feiters said they made a profit
on the difference in the market
quotation for gold ingots and
coins.
Eugene (U.R) Robert E.
Summers, Columbus, O., was

Josslin Scoffs
At Primary Vote
Portland (U.R) The Dem
ocratic convention proved that
President Truman was right sev
eral months ago when he said
that primaries are "eyewash"
William L. Josslin, Portland at
torney told members of the Wil
lamette Democratic Society
Tuesday.
Josslin, who was chairmen of
the Oregon Kefauver committee,
said that in spite of the fact that
Sen. Estes Kefauver won 14 of
the 16 primaries he entered, in
cluding Oregon, it was apparent
Wednesday, August 6, 1952
MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE FIVE
that he was opposed by power
ful elements in the party.
, "He was approved by the big
city machines," Josslin said.
"This opposition was due at least
partly to Kefauver's crime
probe."
, Josslin and two other Oregon
convention delegates, Nicholas
Granet and State Sen. Thomas R.
Mahoney, criticized the manner
in which Gov. Adlai Stevenson
of Illinois was pominated, but
promised to support" him for the
election.
During his first term as presi
dent, Grover Cleveland vetoed
a total of 312 bills.
