TWO MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE Democratic Leaders In Agreement on Policy Over Morse Portland CU.R) Oregon Democratic Central Committee Chairman Howard Morgan and National Committeeman Monroe Sweetland Saturday declared themselves in agreement over the party's policy regarding In dependent Senator Wayne Morse. The apparent rift between the two party leaders was quickly healed over In public statements and Morse wired Sweetland that he understands his position in re lation to Oregon Democrats should he seek reelection as an Independent and in opposition to a Democratic candidate. He said he has high regard for both Sweetland and Morgan.' In a statement aimed at ending talk of a party split, Morgan said he was happy that an agreement had been reached and added, "I am hopeful that in the future press releases which affect. the policies and position of the Dem ocratic party will be released in a more coordinated and more carefully; considered manner." : Co-Existence Said World by Commies Seattle, Wash. j(U.R) Peace ful co-existence means eventual world conquest for the Commu nists and suicide for the free world, Republic of Korea Prime Minister Pyun Yung Tai said here Saturday. Pyun, enroute from Korea to attend United Nations meeting in New York, said in an interview with United Press that "peaceful co-existence is just a "phrase to lull and dull resistance of the free world and achieve more time for the Communists to pre pare for world conquest." War to Suicide "Waiting for the Communists to strike is the surest way to sui cide;" he said. Pyun said the United States in stead of reducing its production of conventional weapons should now be supplying "fringe ; na tions" with mass quantities of standard Weapons while prepar ing for "strategic" attacks with atomic 'and hydrogen bombs agamsi Jtvussia. ; v Asked if he meant the United States should launch a prevent ative war against the Commu - nists, Pyun said a preventative war is impossible "because the 1 United States already has been attacked in several places and is engaged in' defensive war but i won't admit it." i .-: ! ; Separate Attacks ; He said if the Communists de cide, to attack , Formosa at the risk- of "massivp . retaliation" promised by the United States, "the Communists also would .make another attack on South Korea and probably Indochina." Pyun said Communist strategy .would be to "confuse and dis courage" the United States with "a very extensive fringe war." ''America already has been dis- couraged by a fringe war in Ko rea, he said. . ' - As for unification of Korea ' through an- election, Pyun 6aid ' the Republic . of Korea would agree to an election only if it were "properly supervised by tne united Nations and entirely free from Communist control or 'influence. , Reed President Wins Vote of Confidence .

Aid To Conquest of Escaped Bull Battles Rush Hour Traffic in Chicago Chicago U.R) An escaped bull took on Chicago's rush hour traffic Friday, and the bull was having the best of it until a posse of policemen did him in. '- . The bull broke out of a pen at the Hubbard Packing Company and was trotting off to see city life when he ran into trouble. Railroad Cowboys ': t. A group of railroad workers spotted him and decided to make like cowboys. They tried to lasso him and the bull apparently en raged" by their amateurishness, took off in a, charge at railroad detective George Bogan. Bogan was pitched 10 feet by the bull's horns.. While he was taken to the hospital, the bull clattered into the streets. A few minutes later he was chasing two women near Grand and Kingsbury streets. "Chased them right into a store," a witness said. Truck Gains Decision The bull next challenged a truck. Bull and truck met headon and the truck gained a slight edge in the encounter .e At least the bull staggered sideways and bounced off a few cars. A few moments later he was dodging rush hour cars and taxis like a seasoned Chicagoan. , But even a bull can't defy Chicago traffic forever. Five squads of. police had 'arrived and policeman Frank McCahill killed the bull with one professional shot. , "We're not cov-boys," McCahill Ceiling on Costs of Welfare Demanded at Meeting of Portland 4U.fi) A ceiling on skyrocketing public welfare costs was demanded Friday at a meet ing of the Association of Oregon Counties here.

' - . . - Aid Limit Asked Another .resolution asked the state put a limit of $150 to $200 on the monthly aid any individ ual welfare recipient could re ceive and charged that many re cipients are now getting more public assistance than they ever earned in wages. . There were also suggestions for a part-time employment fea ture of welfare aid, permitting the recipient to earn some out side income without forfeiting his welfare status; for a restric tion on travel of recipients and a request for more enforcement of laws against deserting fath ers. .

Henry Helser and Company, an invest ment firm - with branches in Washington, Oregon and Califor nia; was charged with ; fraudu lent operations in a suit filed in federal court Friday by the Se curities and Exchange Commis sion.":.': ;.- . v.'.' The commission charged that the company violated provisions of the Investment Advisers Act of 1950, the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and the Securities Act of 1933. The suit said the company op erated the "Helser Plan of In vestment . Managing" whereby clients gave the company powers of attorney to purchase, sell and trade in securities. The company misrepresented itself in its dealings with clients and made claims to clients that were not based on fact, the com mission said. - ; V The SEC, seeking to enjoin the company a ga i n s t the alleged practices, said the filing of the suit was without prejudice to any relationship that may exist between Helser clients and the carrying brokers. " ' ' Helser and Company has 37 branch offices in the Pacific Coast States and employs about 300 sales representatives. The commission said in the suit Hel ser had some 6000 clients whose accounts with carrying brokers hold approximately 62 million dollars. In Portland, Helser said, "If there is any allegation that our company operated contrary to the law or public interest, we deem it absolutely false." He said the company would give a "full statement" after the firm's lawyers had a chance to examine the charges; He said company officials here were "in the dark" as to the nature of the charges and could not com ment until attorneys in San Francisco became "conversant with the matter." He said. "No one from the Securities and Ex change Commission has ever sat down with me to discuss our af fairs." Radio Men Critical Of Plan for Polls Salem . U.R) Members of the Oregon State Broadcasters' Association, in a one-day meet ing here Friday, were critical of a proposal to conduct an opin ion poll by postcards on issues before the coming 1955 Legislature.-.. , Members said they feared the plan would be harmful to the OSBA aim of impartial, objec tive reports from the legislative chambers. Sen. Robert Holmes, Gearhart, manager ' of Astoria station KAST, said the proposal . had "grave .implications." He said a legislator trying to do his job would not be helped by a sudden flood of opinions. Holmes said legislators would be inclined to ask,-"What kind of a gimmick are the radio boys pulling on us?" Earle W.. Headrick of Salem station KGAE, said the plan would not achieve the objectiv ity for which the OSBA is stri Moscow Announces Firing of Government Taper Pushers' London 4J.R) Moscow Ra-1 the state." dio announced a new purge Sat- t . i .-i.

Moscow Radio broadcast the news in the form of a dispatch in Saturday's issue of the Commu nist Party newspaper Pravda. J.
