in a copyright dispatch from
Washington, said Saturday the
Eisenhower administration has
warned the Democrats against
launching any investigation of
the GOP loyalty program.
The storv said the adminis
tration warned it would prove
! that 96 per cent of federal em
ployees fired as security risks
were inherited from the Truman
regime.
The spokesman said any in
vestigation would show more
than 50 of those dismissed as
subversives had been members
of the Communist Party. .
"It will show that many were
members of 10 or a dozen organi
zations listed by the attorney
general as subversive," the
spokesman was quoted.
"It will show that, of the 48

Of Betraying U.S.
In Korean Prison
Fort Sill, Okla. (U.R) Maj.
Ambrose Nugent, a 44-year-cld
career soldier, was accused Fri
day of betraying his country
during 38 months as a spy of
the Communists in Korea.
Nugent, a Wisconsin National
Guardsman who stayed in the
regular army after World War
II, said he asked only for a fair
trial.
The Fort Sill public informa
tion office said Nugent allegedly
violated the 96th Article of War
in seven cases and Article 13
of the Uniform Code of Military
Justice in six others.
The most serious allegations
were two of "treasonable of
fenses," not otherwise defined.
The Army said the other charg
es included offering intelligence
to the enemy, hindering the es
cape of fellow POWs permitting
the use of his photo and signa
ture on surrender leaflets, and
collaborating with the Commun
ists. "1 think arid hope the Army
will give me a fair trial. That
is all I ask," said Nugent of
Merrill, Wis.
"While I was a prisoner, I
tried to help my fellow prison
ers to the best of my ability and
I never received any preferent
ial treatment of any kind."

Criss A. Dizick, son of Mr. and Mrs. Criss A. Dizick,
route 2, Gold Hill, was "jUst about the most unpopular
man" on board the USS Osbourn recently, according to a
Navy press release.
Dizick, a hospital corpsman,- is usually highly popular
for his seasick or headache remedies for the men aboard
the destroyer. But not when he lined up his fellow crew
members to give them their" bi-yearly "shots" for cowpox,
cholera; tetanus and typhoid.
The Navy release said on one day he shoved a needle .
into the arm of sailors more than 1,200 times, with each of
the 250-man crew getting five shot each.

Navy crewmen get such shots inoculations and
"boosters" every six months while overseas, and each year
while in the U.S.

corpsman training at Bainbridge, Md., later serving in Bos

Prospect Friends of Mrs.
George Ring Jr. are active in
setting up what they call an
"Encouragement fund' for her.
Mrs. Ring, the mother of five
children, will have to undergo
surgery soon, and because of
illness has been separated from
time to time from several of her
children. In addition, her doc
tor has told her she must "take
it a lot easier" in the future.
Her husband, who is "employed
by Red Blanket Lumber com
pany, has been working over
time recently in efforts to earn
enough money to take care of
the necessary medical treatment,
as well as to get his wife some
of the appliances which would
make life easier for her.
But it just hasn't been enough,
the friends reported Saturday.
Finally, they asked her if they

Root Sees Next Session of
Legislature as
State Rep. Robert Root of
Medford Friday night told dele
gates to the state convention of
the Young Republicans of Ore
gon that the 1955 session of the
state legislature will be "a tough
one" because of the fiscal prob
lem. Speaking at the Jackson hotel,
Root pointed out that more than
$22,000,000 in new money will
be required "if needs remain the
same." However, he added that
needs are going to increase in
school, welfare, salary adjust
ments and building.
Heavy Local Taxes
The state representatives add
ed that the legislature will be
reluctant to put all the increase
on property, "even though the
voters might be considered to
have asked for it" when they de
feated the six-mill property tax
limit at the general election.
The basis for the reluctancy will
be the heavy local property
taxes in many places, he added.

Social Service Workers
Of all the humanitarians In story and song, none

loving social worker. Putting her work before even
her own health and welfare; ofttimes denying her
self simple pleasures that she may have mere time
to work among the poor and needy, the Social
Worker is indeed the Good Samaritan of modern
times .. and, here in our own Community she
is doing a work that brings praises from religious
leaders of every sect and creed. Let us thank God
that we are blessed with such consecrated workers

"Among such prospects is that

EM Proposal Seen
fls Newest Mempt
To Freeze Out O.
By CHARLES M. McCANN
United Press Foreign Analyst '
Soviet Russia's call for a conference on "collective security"
in Europe is the latest attempt by the Kremlin to freeze the United
States out of Europe. .
It is aimed directly at preventing the armament of Western
Germany and sabotaging the North Atlantic Treaty. Organization.
But Moscow's big aim remains, as it has been for a long
time, to promote the "Yankee Go Home" movement of the Com
munists and leave Russia dominant on the whole continent of
Europe. '
Under the Russian call for a Conference to start in Moscow
or Paris on Nov. 29 the United States would be invited only as
an outsider. along with Communist China
Moscow Note Seen
As New Propaganda j
It is incredible that Soviet
Premier Georgi M. Molenkov
and Foreign Minister Vyaches
lav Mi Molotov really could hope
to lure the Western Allies into
this conference and get it started
only 16 days from now.
Hence the Moscow note may
be written off .largely as propa
ganda. It is propaganda which never
theless has its appeal to the im
portant elements in Europe who
are ready to do nearly anything
to get rid of their dread of a
third World War.
But the Kremlin's overall aim
is to get the United States out of
Europe and to gain control of the
whole of Europe including Ger
many. It was oh last February 10, at
the Big Four foreign ministers
conference in Berlin, that Molo
tov proposed a 50-year security
treaty which would take the
place of the North Atlantic
Treaty Organization.
Nobody but a Communist ever
would have had the cheek to
make such a proposal that the
Western Allies scrap their de
fense system, that the European
Allies abandon their defense ties
with the United States and that
they enter a "security" treaty in
which they would depend for
their defense upon the Red
armies of Russia and its satel
lites.
Under the Soviet proposals,
the United States would take
part in the "security" confer
ence, while Red China would be
there only as an observer. .
But the United States would
be effectively frozen out of any
part in the defense of Europe-
and there would be no organized
defense against Communist ag
gression. There was one notable thine

it did not enter into any blist
ering denunciation of "war
mongers." It was, rather, argu
mentative and, from the Com
munist viewpoint, reasoned.
That may be part of the cur
rent Soviet "peaceful co-existence"
propaganda, which ad
vanced a stage last Sunday when
Malenkov urged in talking to
the United States and British
ambassadors in Moscow that the
Big Four power revert to old
fashioned secret diplomacy to
keep individual incidents from
becoming crises.
It is interesting to note that
every tune the western Allies
get- closer together, the Russians
start making proposals and al
leged conciliatory gestures of
their own.
