Brownell Reports
On Subversive Control
Washington (U.R) The Jus
tice department hopes to force
some 30 organizations now ac
tive in the United States to reg
ister as Communist fronts dur
ing the next fiscal year, Atty.
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

News Conference
Group Hears of
Job's Importance
By LYLE C. WILSON
United Press Correspondent
Washington (U.P.) 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

ed by motorists on any open
Oregon routes, the State High
way department said today.
An inch of snow fell at Gov
ernment Camp, but the pave

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."
