Rabbi Says McCarthy
Duplicates Red Evils
Boston KU.PJ Sen. Joseph R.
McCarthy "has become the most
powerfully ally the Communist
cause possesses in the United
States government, Rabbi Ro
land B. Gittlesohn charged in a
sermon at Temple Israel Fri
day night.
. The junior senator from Wis
consin "by scattering the buck
shot of wild exaggeration in all
directions at once has made it
easier for the real Communists
to escape undetected," the Jew
ish spiritual - leader said.
. McCarthy is "not the answer
to Communism. He is a dupli
cation of Communism's worst
evil," Rabbi Gittelsohn said.

Logs Fly as Truck And Train Collide In Central Point
Central Point A Southern
Pacific freight train collided with
a stalled logging truck at the
Pine ' st. crossing in Central
Point Friday at about 5:40 p.m.
Eye witnesses called it a spec
tacular accident.
No injuries resulted to the
driver of the loaded truck, who
was in his cab. The train's en
gineer, Martin Tasanady, re
ceived a slight cut on his cheek,
according to Police Chief Oran
Chastain. The engine was about
600 feet past the scene of the
collision when it stopped. The
force of the impact threw one
of the logs on top of the diesel
engine's cab where it balanced
until it was removed. Several
36-inch logs were cut in two
and Central . Point's "depot," a
small 10 by 12-foot building.was
demolished by the logs, Chas
tain said.
Hears Train Whistle
In reconstructing the accident,
the police chief stated, that the
truck, driven by Arthur St.
German, Central Point, was on
the tracks when he heard the
train whistle and slammed on
his breaks. He was unable to get
the truck in gear in time to move
it off the tracks, and it was
struck in the middle. There ap
peared to be only minor damages
to the cab, officials said, but the
engine was . considerably dam
aged from striking the logs.
Engineer Tasanady stayed at
his controls and kept blowing
the whistle until the collision,
Chastain reported. A crewman
in the cab was able to go to'the
rear part of the engine to avoid
injury. C. E. Walker was the
train conductor.
Lewis and Clark were the first
trail blazers to mark out a way
from St. Louis to the present
known mouth of the Columbia
river.
