Young Republicans
Call for Support
Of Ike's Program
The Young Republican Federa
tion of Oregon called for support
of President Eisenhower bjy Re
publicans at all levels for suc
cess in 1956 at the close of the
1954 state convention in Medford
Saturday. .
In a resolution offered as a
compromise late Saturday by
Doug Spencer, which was adopt
ed unanimously, the group . re
solved . that the Young Re-,
publican Federation of Oregon
recognizes that success of the Re
publican party uul956 depends
upon support, by Republicans at
all levels, of President Dwight
D. Eisenhower, and his dynamic
leadership.
Measure Withdrawn
Debate on another measure
was held which said, in part, that
it was felt the 1952 election
showed that a victory by the
GOP at that time "was solely an
endorsement of the personality
and platform of Eisenhower . .
we therefore feel that one' of the
contributing causes of the Re
publican defeat this year was the
- failure of some Republicans to
loyally uphold the platform on
which their party was elected.
Be it resolved that it shall be the
policy of this organization to up
hold the liberal Republican prin
ciples of President Eisenhower
. . ." The unsuccessful resolution
which was withdrawn was offer
ed from the floor by Paul Kerri
gan, a Reed college delegate. .
Twelve resolutions were adopt
ed as proposed by the resolu
tions committee, except for cer
tain wording changes.
Regarding public power, the
group resolved to endorse the co
operation offered by the govern
ment in development of public
private power and recommended
to the governor and legislature
of Oregon that they "fully ex
plore and exercise the legal
power presently available for
gram."
Recommend Discussion
Further, "Believing that the
policies advocated by the oppos
ing party, will, if adopted, bring
on a power depression, deteri-
. mental to the development of the
Pacific Northwest, we further
recommend that the executive
board arrange public discussion
by advocates of the various
views' on their power policy for
the furtherance of public under
standing." A resolution was adopted ap
plauding the Watkins committee
"for the impartiality of its hear
ings and the soundness of its
findings." ;
The last resolution on national
affairs recommended the "re
consideration and modification
of the McCarran. act to provide
for less stringent restriction on
the admission of aliens to the
United States in accordance with
American traditions.'
" . Three resolutions on interna
tional affairs included "freer
trade" as indispensible to the
sound economic development of
this nation and the world; adop;
tion of. a program whereby the
Japanese people "may reap the
benefit of an atomic-electric,
plant as a realization of ' the
peaceful, productive benefit of
the atom, and six foreign
"achievements" of the Republi
can administration were lauded,
including solving the Trieste
problem, peaceful resumption of
Iran oil production, Anglo-Egyptian
amity concerning the Suez
canal administration, steps to
ward readmisison . of Germany
into, the family of nations, build
ing the St. Lawrence seaway and
"iKconmi' nt armprl conflict in
the world for the first time in
decades." ' . -

Marilyn, DiMaggio
Act Like Romancers
Hollywood (U.R) Marilyn
Monroe insisted today she and
Joe DiMaggio are "just friends"
but the divorced couple contin
ued to act like romancers.
The curvy actress and the ex-
baseball player made their first
public appearance Saturday
when he treated her to lazange
and veal scallopini at Villa Ca
pri, the Italian restaurant where
the couple held hands on dates
two years ago.
Joe's brother, Dominic, also
an ex-ball player, was in town
and made the date a threesome.
But when reconciliation ru
mors flourished around Holly
wood, Marilyn issued a state
ment through her studio:
"Joe and I are just friendly,
that's all: There's nothing to it."

age mounted above the $250,000
mark today from a week end
soaking with 9.88 inches of rain

water damage. Three telephone
cables were knocked out.
Water ran six to eight inches
deep over the ground floors of

Around Hollywood
By ALINE MOSBY
United Press 'Correspondent
Hollywood (U.R) "Mister
Roberts," one of Broadway's
most successful plays, is nearly
finished as a movie at Warner
Bros., studio
without those
famous birth
mark lines.
The censors
had to snip out
the more salty
language and
situations
from the play
and novel
about life
Aline Mosbf aboard a Navy
cargo ship. One casualty was
when sailors, . peering through
binoculars at nurses faking a
shower, discovered one of the
ladies had a birthmark. -
"But the rest of the scene
remains," said producer Leland
Hayward today. "The movie fol
lows the play very closely."
It took "Mister Roberts" to
get producer Hayward back in
pictures after his years as a
successful Broadway play-maker.
No Films Since 1926
"I wanted to do the movie my
self," he explained. "I've always
loved the story, ever since I
read the original story as a mag
azine article."
Hayward hasn't produced pic
tures since "Harold Teen's" in
1926. but now he's in the movies
to stay for a while. , His next'
production will be "The Spirit
of St. Louis," the story of
Charles Lindbergh's flight, and
Truman Sees No Magic
To Keep World Free
Lexington, Mo. U.R) For
mer President Harry S. Truman
told a crowd of more than 2000
persons yesterday that there is
"no magic or quick solution" to
maintaining a free world.
"If we are to succeed in main
taining a free world, we must
have steady nerves and stout
hearts. There is no other way,"
Mr. Truman said. He spoke at
Founders' Day activities at
Wentworth Military academy.
Wrist Watch Industry Hopes Alarm Will
Get Favorable Reaction of Buying Public
By ELIZABETH TOOMEY
United Press Correspondent
New York (U.R) The alarm
watch that went off on President
Eisenhower's wrist at his press
conference this week will ring
around the world, watch makers
hoped today.
They hope it will do for the
alarm wrist watch what Mr. Eis
enhower did for the homburg hat
at his inauguration. The watch
makers believe that the Presi
dent's alarm watch which went
off five minutes late and broke
up a sentence at his press con
ference may wake , up a lot of
buyers. .
Actually the alarm wrist
watch business is a buzzing one
already. '
Thousands of American males
are walking alarm clocks these
days, though it is a recent de
velopment in watch manufac
turing. None for Women
Women have escaped this posi
tive reminder that they're late
so far, since their wrist watches
are too small to hold an adequate
alarm,
When somebody makes news
by having his wrist watch buzz
loudly at an embarrassing time,
as the President's did, then it
boosts sales among men not yet
aware that they can buy such
a thing as a wrist alarm.
"Originally the wrist alarm
was designed for busy execu
tives," a spokesman for the
Bulova Watch Co. explained.
"But like all devices designed
for the few, it started to be ad
mired by the man on the street
He, in turn, began to use it for
very humdrum things.
"I'm a man on the street my
self," the spokesman continued.
"I wear one set for 5:28 inthe
morning. It wakes me up with
out waking up my wife. This is
a far cry from making airplanes
or timing chemical formulas. But
if s handy." '
A Swiss watch manufacturer
OCCUPYING favored seat
among 13,909 fans who packed
Boston Garden to see Liberace
play, Charlene Hartley, 29, tells
reporters she dated pianist in
Boston and that they're renew
ing friendship begun in Chi-'
cago last year. (International)
claims to have brought the first
wrist alarm to this country seven
years ago. For years before this
watchmakers had tried to get an
alarm in a small enough case for
the wrist. ,-V. : -.
"Our engineer had givenup,"
Bernard Lippman, president of
the Vulcane Watch Co., recalled.
"Then one day he was walking
through a meadow in Switzer
land and heard a cricket. He said
to himself that if . such a small
insect could make such a big
noise, then he should be able to
create a noise In a wrist watch."
The company named the re
sulting watch the Cricket. Its
buzzing sound is reminiscent of
the insect's buzz.

Meanwhile, the graying, hand
some producer stands on the
"Mister Roberts" set every day
to watch closely the filming, an
unusual sight because most pro
ducers stay in their offices.
Lots of Trouble
The film has had more than
its share of troubles. Henry J
Fonda burned his face under a
sun lamp while trying to keep
the tan he acquired on the Hono
lulu location. Director Ford was
rushed X o the hospital, and
Mervyri' LeRoy was called in to
finish the picture. For the
scenes I watched, however, pro
ducer Hayward and Fonda, hav
ing loved the story for seven
years, did as much directing as
LeRoy.
While the prop man sprayed
sweat ' water m the sailors'
shirts, director LeRoy left the
camera to say he was sure au
diences couldn't tell where Ford
left off and he began.
"But it was tough," he said.
"It's as if somebody wrote half
a story and you were called in
to finish it. You wonder where
you are and what you do next,
"I was telephoned at midnight
to do the picture. I read scripts
until 4 and was on the set at
7:30. "The first two days I didn't
