Paul C. Clovis, president of the Twentieth Century - Press, revealed how his firm kept se cret the verdict that recently cleared the du Pont company of anti-trust charges. The story began a year ago when du Pont sent two men from its Wilmington, 'Del., head quarters to canvass Chicago for a trustworthy printer. Plant Blocked Off ' "When we were finally chos en," said Clovis, "we blocked off part of the plant to handle the work and detached the pro duction manager, Clarence. Og ren, to be in charge of the project." , Ogren spent the better part of his time- during the next 12 months on the project, acting as liaison between du Pont, Gen eral Motors, and U.S. Rubber Co., the three principal defend ants, and the U.S. government. "He never missed a deadline," said Clovis. "We would receive the court reporter's record of the proceedings -from the morn ing session at about 3 p.m. We would rush them to the shop and have copies set, bound and printed by 9 that evening. 18 Tons of Pa?er "Just about the time we were through with the . morning ses sion's notes, those from the aft ernoon session would be releas ed and they would be ready for distribution to interested parties by midnight." This hurried schedule, Clovis said, was maintained through out the trial which began Nov. 18, 1952, and ended Dec. 21, 1953. . Clovis said the total number of pages, including proofs and final printings, numbered 1,600,- 000, and involved more than 18 tons of paper. Feedbag Fashion Plumbing BROWNIES i. PLUMBING & HEATING.

Dated and first published January 11. 1955. Helen Parrisn, Executrix Van Dyke & Dellenback ; Attorneys for Executrix NOTICE OF ANNUAL MEETING Notice of Annual meeting and elec tion by resolution passed at the regu lar meeting of the Board of Directors of the Rogue Soil Conservation Dist rict this second day of December 1954. The Annual Meeting of the District Jill be held in the Central Point Grange HaU at 8.-00 PJ4. on Thursday. January 13. 1955. .

' The Rogue Soil Conservation District Don Mmear. Chairman W. B. Tucker, Secretary On Nov. 17, 1954, U.S. Dis trict Judge Walter J. LaBuy turned in his advance copy of the decision for publication, and Clovis said, "top security measr ures were put into effect. The document was. placed im mediately in the company's safe under seal, where it remained until Dec. 2. Only Three Men Knew "At that time," said Clovis, "there were only three men in the world who knew the final decision." They were LaBuy, Clovis and Ogren. Clovis , explained that on the night of Dec. 1 his men set type, printed and sewed the first 215 pages of the document which were of a more or less general nature; The last five pages, which contained the court's fi nal decision, remained in the safe. ' "- ' .. Zero Hour At 1 a.m. on Dec. 2, an Hour after the plant's normal closing time, a group of hand-picked personnel began final Work on the highly secret . five pages. Clovis said he had assmbied the group in his office early that evening and explained the im portance of secrecy and the dis astrous result that a ' 'leak" might bring. Trust and seniority were the- only criteria involved in his choices. "Out of that groupr' said Clo vis, "only one man had been with us less than 15 years and some as long as 34 years." - At 8 a.m. the job was com pleted and the copies placed in the custody of Brinks Express Co. At the same time, Ogren was charged with the delivery of 880 copies to interested par ties in Wilmington. These copies were put on a train under armed guard, and Ogren literally lived with them until 11 a.m., Wilmington time, Dec. 3, when he- received a long distance call authorizing their release. . . Simultaneously reporters in Chicago were handed copies of La Buy's decision. , "It was a highly emotional I experience," said Ogren, "to realize the import of the knowl edge with which I was entrusted." t vmmT - - .... f !t " ?.: m o Tuesday.

Ea rly-Day Explorers Live in Names Given Oregon Flora, Fauna .Corvallis Lewis and Clark and other early explorers to the Oregon country have been com memorated by having plants and animals named after them Dr. Kenneth Gordon, Oregon State college zoology professor, takes an avid interest in the his torical names used in taxonomy. Taxonomy is the naming and cubbyholing of plants and ani mals in scientific classifications. Lewis and Clark and tother early explorers collected natural history specimens on expedi tions and sent them to museums and scientists for identification. The scientists often" named the plants and . animals after the finder. Birds Named .

(Dodd, Mead). . - If not at this instant, then soon the nations of the earth will have the atomic might to destroy ev erything. "Mankind . is at the crossroads,'? said Dietz, going on to the wonders of atomic pow er as opposed to atomic destruc tion. r Baby Quilt wr innn .

Send 25 cents for your copy of this terrific catalog NOW. ; YouTl want . to .order every wonderful design in it! All civilizations have been based upon power. The ancient ones got theirs from the "strong backs of slaves, and the present one began its ascendency with the , steam engine. J But the current method of de riving power from the atom is most inefficiency. Dietz - feels this , method is only the . begin ning, and he indicates the na ture of the end with this re mark: - To, Mine Oceans ' - "If all the atoms in a kilogram (2.2 pounds) of any - substance in the world could be completely converted into energy, it would release 25,000,000,000 .kilowatts hours of . energy. This would be the equivalent of all the electric ity generated ' in the United States in. an average two months." 1 As . the methods of releasing and utilizing the power of the atom become more and more ef ficient; "cheaper atomic power will mean cheaper costs of pro duction for industry. . This, in turn, will mean more plentiful production. It will also , mean new types of production. Pro cesses now commercially im possible because of the cost in electric power or heat, would be possible. There is certain to be a vast increase in the - use of automatic machinery, thus en larging the available amount of leisure for mankind. . Perhaps the day will come whom the idea of the 40-hour week will seem utterly fantastic." Atomic power will permit man to get easily at an all but inex haustible reservoir of raw mater ials the oceans. Dietz saw man "mining" the waters for iron, copper, aluminum, tin, sil ver, gold, platinum and other minerals. Those substances are all in the seas only man cannot now extract them in sufficient amounts at low enough, costs to make the effort worthwhile. Water for Deserlt . This "mining"- would produce vast quantities of distilled water as a waste product, only it would not be waste because it could be piped from seacoasts to interior deserts and there used to make deserts bloom. " : ; . Dietz "thought the atom could produce such an abundance , of cheap power that - man . could some day send enough heat into the atmosphere to control the weather and in that day "no baseball game will be called on account of rain, no airplane will by pass an airport because of fog. No city will experience a winter traffic jam because of heavy snow. Summer resorts will be able to guarantee the weather, and artificial suns will make it as easy to grow corn and potatoes indoors as on the farm.." That way he saw affairs as of today is that "two lights shine upon the horizon of civilization." The big question is, "which light will prevail?" If the destructive light is dimmed and extinguish ed by the constructive one, "a plentiful supply of power and an Lewis. Woodpecker -and the Clark nutcracker which is found high in the mountains near Crater lake were named after the explorer team., ; Lewisia, the bitteroot found in the Bitteroot mountains in Mon tana, was , named after Lewis. Two subspecies of salmon' Lewisii. and Clarkii were also named for the two great explor ers.., , David Douglas, an . English man who visited Oregon infhe 1830's, probably should be. one of the best remembered persons in Oregon. He's the namesake of Douglas fir. This Englishman wa also remembered for having the Douglas pine squirrel dubbed for him. . " .-: -, John C. Fremont, an army of ficer who headed a government expedition into the Rockies, Oregon and - California in the 1840's, is commemorated by Fre mont's pine squirrel. Nathaniel Wyeth came from Boston in the esrly 1830's' to establish a sal mon at Astoria.. Named for him was Wyethia sunflower. Naturalist Honored Naturalist Thomas . Nuttall, botanist . with Wyeth, had the common Oregon dogwood, cpr nus nutallii, designated for him, and the Townsend chipmunk was named for his companion. Captain Vancouver, who headed the British vessel Discovery, has a marmot, or a woodchuck, to his credit. - In the days of Catherine the Great, Naturalist Georg Steller accompanied a Russian expedi tion which was , exploring Si beria. The vessel stopped brief ly on an Alaskan island. He's remembered for the Steller sea cow and Steller's jay. A rare so-called weeping spruce in the Siskiyou moun tains in California is known as picea Breweriana. It was named for William H. Brewer, chief field assistant of the geological survey of California. .. Two Ashland Youths Arraigned in Court , Two Ashland youths, ages 16 and 19, have been arraigned in district court ,on a burglary not in a dwelling count and were bound over to the grand jury, according to. court records. The youngest was ordered transferred to the juvenile court and both were committed in lieu of $1,500 bail. : Richard Lee Booth, 148 Ohio St., Ashland, was the 19-year-old. The complaint charged them with entering the Varsity the ater on Dec. 29 in Ashland by use of a pass key. No other in formation was cited in the complaint.

Lincoln had written the message that. began: "Fourscore and seven years ago . ." Sensing the impermanence of spoken words, Lincoln himself de clared: "The world will little note nor long remember what we say here . . ." But his words were caught and preserved for all time by the newspaper presses of the nation. - ' Nor did it matter that the singing words of Hoier, .his Iliad and pdyssey, were spoken from memory, for 'there were scribes who wrote them down and kept them fresh and living for all mankind. Yes, the Written message, and chiefly the printed message, is the one that lives. But more than that, the written met sage is tangible as well as permanent. You can return again and again to it, clip it out, pass it on to others. Without wishing to profane Lincoln's glorious words, or the ancient classics, The'MaH Tribune asks you to consider the proposition that the written message is the one that lives in terms of advertising: , The printed page, rich in detail exact in its message, ' can be studied by the reader . . . not fifteen seconds, not a minute but for an hour if the reader so wishes ' . . . referred to the following day . . week . . month.
