Gen. Herbert Brownell Jr., said today. ' The department also hopes to prove in 1955-56 that several la bor organizations in this country are Communist infiltrated, he said. Brownell made the statements in an annual report to President Eisenhower and Congress on the department's activities under the subversive control act of 1950. The act established a five member Subversive Activities Control board and gave it the power to hold hearings on peti tions filed by the attorney gen eral against alleged Communist front groups. Advertising helped make the difference FOLKS USED TO BUY refrigeration in fifty pound pieces. Frozen foods were un heard of . . . ice cubes-an impossibility . . . and that drip pan under the ice box always seemed to be overflowing. Today, a silent, white-enameled ice man stands in millions of kitchens. But to mass produce millions of refrigerators, manufacturers must be able to sell them by the millions. Only by advertising can a manufacturer talk to millions of people at one time. ADVERTISING TELLS the story of new refrigerators . . . and helps sell them. The more it sells, the more must be made keeping the production lines and the jobs going. The result: newer, better appliances at prices more people can afford to pay. Advertising helped make the difference in refrigerators, and in our American wav Cfliffc.

President Eisenhower has ruled out any 1956 right wing compromise which might put young Sen. William F. Knowland on the ticket with him as a vice presi d e n t i a 1 nominee. Whether Mr. Eisenhower himself will seek a second term now is a matter of anxious discussion among Republican Party leaders. Most of them apparently be lieve he will do so in the end. But he won't run with Knowland at least, he wouldn't as of today. That was the between-the-lines significance of Mr. Eisenhower's news conference discussion Tues day of the philosophical and prac tical importance of the vice-presidential nomination. In genial mood, the President confessed he had not known un-' til he had been nominated for president that the No. 1 man on the ticket was supposed to guide the party convention consider ably in choosing No. 2. Pressed to act, candidate Eisenhower at the 1952. Chicago convention wrote on a bit of paper the names of five or six considerably younger men for whom he had high regard. The name of Richard M. Nixon was on the list and he got the prize. Knowland's name was on it, also. But Knowland now is an avowed opponent of the admin istration in a wide field of for eign policy. He fears that Mr. Eisenhower will appease the Chinese Communists, that he will be bamboozled by Commu nist strategy at this summer's Big Four conference. All of this despite the fact that Knowland is Republican leader of the Senate. Knowland refused to go along with the censure of Sen. Joseph R. McCarthy (R Wis.). He has bucked the Eisen hower party line in open defi ance of the President's known de sires. And Knowland is carrying his story to the voters in a tight speaxing scneauie. The young man from California is the only highly placed party man so far to suggest that the party really doesn't need Mr. Eisenhower to win in 1956. Knowland acts like a man running for a presidential nomination of his own. Others have speculated, how ever, tnat Knowland would be an ideal compromise vice-presidential nominee if Mr. Eisen hower were renominated and it became necessary to make a big peace offering to the right wing Republicans the so-called Taft group. But the President knocked that over Tuesday. He said a presidential nominee should step aside if the conven tion s vice -presidential choice were unacceptable to him. Mod em government requires team work, the President continued. If a President were disabled or died in a moment of tension, Mr. Eisenhower fears a new man tak ing over with an entirely differ ent philosophy of .government would bring about chaos. He thought there must be- a genuine closeness of feeling be tween No. 1 and No. 2 on a presi dential ticket. Of course he did not mention Knowland. But he found opportunity to give Vice- President Nixon a big cheer as a man doing a useful job and work ing at least as hard at it as any person the President knows in the whole executive establish ment. Nixon is all out in public for the renomination of Mr. Eisen nower in iaao. it iooks very much as though the President is equally for Nixon as a running mate if he runs. . Nebraska Students Telephone Churchill Lincoln, Neb! (U.R) Two University of Nebraska students j decided to telephone "thej world's greatest statesman." Sirj Winston Churchill, yesterday j and were "very surprise" when he took time to talk to them. The students, Gene Spence, 21, and Mile Shugrue, 20, both of Lincoln, said they decided to make the call during a discus sion of world politics, in which both are interested. They said they waited four hours after placing the call be fore Churchill was connected with them from London. Spence and - Shugrue told Churchill he is "the greatest statesman of our day." The former Prime Minister said, "It's mighty fine the young people of our age have that much interest in world affairs." Spence's mother, Mrs G. P. Spence, said she believed that Churchill "probably was refer ring to the expense of the call" rather than the trouble. The call cost $15.40. Santiam, Willamette Passes Get Light Snow Salem (U.R) Traces of new snow fell at Santiam pass and at Willamette pass over night, but chains were not need ed by motorists on any open Oregon routes, the State High way department said today.

McAndrews Phone 2-4107 Eggs and Avocados Scrambled by Fire Portland (U.R) A concoction of 24,000 dozen eggs and 12,000 cases of avocados was scrambled together here last night when a 860,000 fire swept a warehouse occupied jointly by the Fred Meyer Co. and Calavo, Inc. ' Heavy iron doors thwarted firemen as they attempted to gain entrance to the structure. They were forced to break holes in the roof to get at the blaze which they said started in the egg candling room. Ted Stiner, manager of Fred Meyer egg department, said the loss in eggs was a minimum of $12,000. Value of the avocados was estimated at $10,000. Build ing damage was placed at $10, 000; damage to cold storage equipment $20,000 and egg can dling equipment $5,000 to 10,000. Defective electrical equip ment was blamed for the fire which delayed switching oper ations in rail yards for more than an hour. Arizona Timberland Destroyed by Flames McNary, Ariz. (U.R) A man-caused fire that . destroyed an estimated 1500 to 2000 acres of rich commercial timberland was at least temporarily under control today, but the danger of high winds kept 500 men on the line to prevent it from breaking out again. Winds had already reached 25 to 30 miles an hour today, ac cording to Richard Rehfeldt, fire control officer on the Fort Ap ache Indian reservation. Reh feldt said it would probably be known by late afternoon wheth er the blaze would be complete ly controlled. The first was first reported early yesterday afternoon, and within an hour's time ate through about 2Vz miles of the timberland. Rehfeldt said the blaze was "definitely man-caused." 1 7m don't want gadget tt you haa trouble hearing you need the help of aa experienced, local hearing aid expert, backed by nationwide organisation producing ffan la ta year to an That's what yow wUI et for money when you place your Uuet in Soootone, world' leading hear ing aid manufacturer and diatraV mor.
