In particular he has cam- n s left-wing faction of theP3ignea against trie plan to re British Labor party appealed to day to the Labor members of Parliament to defy and defeat the demand for his expulsion for Insubordination. The call was sounded in the Tribune, weekly organ of the Bevan-led left wing as elements of the conservative press openly urged Prime Minister Winston Churchill to call a spring elec tion while the Socialists are split wide open. Asked To Resist Pressure - A full front page article in the Tribune called on the 293 Labor members of Parliament to "re sist Insane pressure" from right wingers allegedly jarm West Germanv and the in sistence that no talks with So viet leaders should take place until that fatal step was taken. Silence Long Wished "'A few right wing leaders of the party . . . have long wished to silence him. They feared, and fear more than ever today, the growing response to his appeal in the constituency Labor par ties, in the trade unions and in the country as a whole . . ." "Now," the article said, "some trying to of those same persons have re solved to press for the kill, dis regarding the threat to the fu ture of the Labor movement and a3 press reports indicate, against the advice of Mr. Attlee, the leader of the party." Attlee already was reported to have rebuffed party attempts to make peace between him and Bevan before Churchill can call general elections. The conserva tives must call one by next year, but they can name their own date.

The Tribune also lashed out against what it called the vacil lating leadership given the party by former Prime Minister Clem ent Attlee. "Mr. Bevan has for years ar gued for a much bolder leader ship on the questions of world peace than other leaders of the party were prepared to give," the Tribune said. An international organization which can make decisions stick is needed to prevent destruction of nations by atom and hydro gen bombs. That is the suggestion of Dr. Robert Newell, head of the de partment of radio biology at Stanford university school of medicine. Dr. Newell, address ing Medford Kiwanis club yes terday, said,' however, that he did not have, the "solution" as to how such an organization can be formed. 'International Anarchy' Speaking at the service club's luncheon at Rogue Valley Coun try club, the doctor declared that the. present world govern ment situation is "international anarchy." He brought out that there is no present authority whose rulings cannot be resist ed. That in the end means war and destruction for the winner as well as the loser, Dr. Newell stressed. Describing some of the terrors of the bombs, he termed the pic ture "desperate," and stated that "the atomic bomb is so bad we cant' afford to put up with it." Dr. Newell declared that, if he 1 "lldttliejaWalisCl J I I V1 If you're going .to Ren W S. 1 V'Trt ffi 1L' soon-and you should- m l 1 1 ft 1 gTij-L send todav for HARRAK'S f. m LjjL TL? fiSTYUt 1 frumkky token, of value J 111 ffVU-" 1 at Harrah's Club.

No Real Protection There isn't any protection, really, from a bombing, he said. He mentioned traffic jams which may arise when a large city is bombed, saying that a person might" walk away from the area but couldnt' get far enough to get away from the "fall out." A person might get away from being killed right away, but would be among those who "might" have a chance of survival. Dr. Newell stated that an in dividual far enough away from a bomb blast to not get the shock waves won't be hurt by gamma and neutron rays. The doctor, vho observed the "Operation Crossroads" aerial and underwater atomic blasts in the Pacific, said that the sight was overpowering. Salem ''U.R) There is now more active oil explorations under way in Oregon than ever before in its history' and the state should move cautiously in any form of legislation that might discourage that activity, accord ing to Hollis Dole, acting direc tor of the State Department of Geology and Mineral Industries. Dole reported to the House Taxation Committee yesterday that at least 10 major firms are now seeking oil deposits in the state and he opposed a bill for a two or three per cent sever ance tax on oil even before the resource is discovered. Might Change Criteria Oregon has just recently reached its turn on the ladder of priorities of oil companies in their exploration program, Dole said, and he feared that a new tax might change the criteria of that priority. Faye Bristol of Rogue River, president of the Oregon Mining Corp. told the committee that Oregon is on the verge of its most profitable exploitation in the mineral field. It would be a disservice to the state to hamper this progress, he said. Most Heavily Taxed William Hedlund of Portland, attorney for Western oil com panies, testified that oil com panies now are paying one eighth of all taxes collected in the nation and are the most heav ily taxed of any other single in dustry. He said the revenue measure now before the House Taxation Committee constituted double taxation and was discrim inatory. Several sand and gravel com panies also opposed the bill. HELPFUL JUDGE Milford, Conn. U.R) A town court judge imposed a $9 fine on John Turner, 23, for a traffic violation and then lent him the I money to pay the penalty. Around Hollywood By ALINE MOSBY United Press Correspondent Hollywood (U.R) Marlon vould be fun. Classical? Per- Brando, a four-time Oscar nom inee for heavy dramas, is taking singing les sons t oday with the hope of becoming a "real singer." Every day the actor, famed for roles practices ( t h e scales for his Aline Mosby first "musical comedy part in the movie version of the broadway hit, "Guys and Dolls." '"It's . a big relief," admitted Brando after a crooning session at Goldwyn Studio. "I got so tired of playing those parts where you get up at seven and slap somebody across the face with an alligator. "I'm sick of playing a naughty boy. In this picture the mood will be lighter. I think there'll be less shaking, too." With Maestro Brando studies with a maes tro from MGM who, as the actor says, "gave Jane Powell a voice and taught Howard Keel." "I'd never sung before, never seriously, strictly bathtub style," Brando went on. "I'd like to be able to really sing. I've always thougnt it THIS IS WHAT YOU PAY From MEDFORD To Portland $5.85 Sacramento . 5.85 To Fresno $7.55 Seattle 9.15 Oakland 6.35 Ange,M 10 70 R-Utrn Trip 20 less. . . T" en Round-Trip Tickets!

Walter Huston was in musicals, end," he said, lapsing into Brando-ese, "he couldn't sing his way out of a wet piece of kleenex. Performance is the thing." One of the torn-shirt films Brando has tired of, "On the Waterfront," won him an Acad emy Award nomination, and he is a hot favorite to pick up. an Oscar March 30. But Brando cbserved casually; "Everybody i talks about it like you go to jail. cr somethin' if you don't win." "It would be pleasant to win," he said. "But I'm just as happy to have been nominated by 13, 000 people. Only 1,300 cast the final vote." Pclite to Ladies Hollywood's new "singing star" is soft spoken and polite around ladies of the press. Dur ing the interview he carefully lit my cigarette, helped me on with my coat and impulsively gave a passing newsboy a large tip. After Brando collected a for eign press award recently in a tuxedo, I expected him to be wearing one of those charcoal-and-pink outfits. However, he looked like' the old Brando 'in a T-shirt, sport jacket and scarf. He frowned that talk about his wardrobe is "irrelevant." But observers claim they see a new Brando. He is appearing on Ed Murrow's "Person to Person" TV show April 1, and also was in a tuberculosis drive film. To dispel rumors, he insisted he still plans to marry Josanne Berringer, "sometime this summer." Mexican Air Crash Victims Badly Burned Mascota, Mexico (U.R) Au thorities reported today the 26 victims of Mexico's worst plane crash were burned beyond rec ognition and that it" probably would take days to identify them. The Mexico City newspaper Ultima Noticias speculated the nlane crash may have resulted from "sabotage or mutiny aboard" by four Mexican "dan gerous forgers and drug traf fickers" being flown to Guadala jara for trial. The bodies, including those of four Californians, were brought down last night from fire black ened El Cabro, a 9000-foot peak of the western' Sierra Madre near Mexico's west coast. The 23 passengers and three crew members were killed Tues day afternoon when a twin-engined Mexican airliner crashed into the peak and exploded 20 minutes after it left the coastal resort town of Puerto Vallarta. Two-Day B As Routine New York U.R) Stock market operators said today the sharp two-day break in prices "may be part of a routine reaction to the long upward trend in stock levels. Heavy selling which began Tuesday knocked the total value of securities listed on the New York Stock Exchange down 55,000,000,000, about three per cent of the $175,500,000,000 total value of stocks listed on the exchange. Experts pointed out that re action to a rising market some times brings on a break of up to 10 per cent. Some Wall Street operators reak in Stock Market. Prices Seen Reaction To Long Upward Trend said the drop might have curred even without the stock market study being conducted in Washington by Sen. J. Wil liam Fulbright (D-Ark.) and his Senate Banking Committee. They said some statements made by Fulbright and by wit nesses probably triggered the drop or at least provided an excuse for it. Prices fell as much as $1 to $7 Same Number for Both Fire Departments Plan Rogue River Arrangements are now being made to utilize the same telephone number for both rural and city fires report ed at Rogue River, according to city officials. It is planned to have exten sions for city alarms from the rural department, which is lo cated a half block away. Offi cials were contacting the tele phone company yesterday to bring the arrangement about. The building for the city fire department has been completed and the new truck is housed there, they added. The city just purchased a new truck from the American-LaFrance company. Before the city organized its own department, it purchased fire protection from the rural district. a share Wednesday and selling orders came so fast during two periods of the day that high, speed ticker tapes recording the transactions ran many minutes late.
