Italian Envoy
To United States
Medford Visitor
Visits Crater Lake
With Gov. Patterson
Manlie Brosio, Italian am
bassador to the United States,
was a visitor in Medford briefly
yesterday.
He arrived in Portland Friday
evening for a five-day visit to
Oregon, and flew via West Coast
airlines to Medford Saturday
morning as the guest of Gov.
Paul Patterson. Mrs. Brosio ac
companied her husband and the
governor on the trip to southern
Oregon.
Has Luncheon Her
The ambassador was guest of
honor at an informal al fresco
luncheon at the Rogue Valley
Country club early in the after
noon. Later he was driven to
Crater Lake in Govornor Pat
terson's car, and was to return
to Portland by way of central
Oregon. He is to speak in Port
land Monday noon.
There were no formal talks on
his tour, and his first speech will
be in Portland. But he has told
reporters that he expects no
change in the- cordial relations
between the United States and
Italy as a result of the formation
of a new government in Italy.
"The new government has
many of the same ministers and
officials of the previous admini
stration," he explained.
Ambassador Brosio said Clare
Booth Luce, U.S. ambassador to
Italy, as "a very remarkable wo
man and well thought of in my
country."
The youngish-looking diplo
mat, who is 58, is a veteran of
eight years of service in Italian
embassies in Washington, Lon
don and Moscow. He said he
senses "a psychological improve
ment" in cold war tensions be
tween east and west. The Rus
sians, he said, are an intelligent
people "who harbor no parti
cular hatred for the west."
In addition to his diplomatic
duties, he has been an author, a
lawyer and a member of the
underground National Liberation
Committee during the time Italy
was occupied by the Germans.
From 1944 to 1947 he served as
secretary general of the Liberal
party, as minister without port
folio in the cabinet, and as vice
president of Italy's defense or
ganization. Group Attends
Some 50 or more persons at
tended yesterday's hurriedly-as
sembled luncheon gathering in
his honor. Among them were
State Sen. Philip B. Lowry, State
Reps. E. H. Mann and E. A. Litt
rell. Mavor Earl Miller, County
Judge Rodney Keating and Post
master Moore Hamilton.
Mrs. Patterson, who has been
ill, was unable to accompany the
governor and his guests.

CORDELL HULL
'Release From Ordeal'
Cordell Hull, 83,
Former Secretary
Of State, Passes
Washington (U.R) Former
Secretary of State Cordell Hull,
father of the United Nations,
died at the age of 83 Saturday
as a new generation of diplo
mats strove to achieve the stable
world peace which was his goal
in life.
The solemn, grey-haired
statesman who rose from a Ten
nessee log cabin to be soldier,
lawyer, judge, representative,
senator and secretary of state
longer than any other American,
died quietly at 9 a.m. EDT (5
a.m. PST) in Bethesda Naval
hospital after several hours in
coma.
Blessed Release'
His death was, in the words
of Miss Will Harris, his secretary
for 43 years, ' a blessed release"
from a 10-year ordeal of illness
during which he suffered sev
eral strokes and heart attacks,
high blood pressure, stomach ail
ments and respiratory infections.
Word of his passing was flash
ed immediately to the Big Four
summit meeting at Geneva,
where President Eisenhower and
Secretary of State John Foster
Dulles were carrying on the
struggle for peace in which Hull
spent his strength during it
turbulent years as head of the
State department. Flags were
lowered to half-staff in the cap

it from the operation of a rail
freight monopoly in that region
Mrs. Neuberger said. "The peo
pie of southwestern Oregon are
entitled to some rail passenger
service from a company which
benefits from the valuable
freight business in southwestern
Oregon."
She said it was her under
standing that "this is one of the
most profitable operations in the
Pacific Northwest." pointing out
to Heltzel that "shipments of
lumber in this area are so ex
tensive that the railroad is fre
quently short of the necessary
freight cars at the time of heavy
lumber orders in the sawmills.
"For these reasons, I urge the
public utilities commission not
to permit suspension of the last
railroad passenger service on the
Southern Pacific between Ash

she declared.

preme court decision concerning
it. The decision upheld one
clause while declaring another
unconstitutional. The federa
tion has openly condemned
both sections.
A 33-page report of Executive
Secretary J. T. Marr, will be in
the hands of delegates Monday
It deals with the federation's
activities during the past state
legislative session, and with
other topics of national and lo
cal labor interest,
Finances Growing
Federation membership and
finances are growing, the re
port shows. Total cash balance
for the fiscal year ending March
31 was $24,291.29, with an ad
ditional $40,230 invested in US
savings bonds.
Marr puts heavy emphasis on
taxation, anti-picketing legisla
tion, Hell's Canyon dam pro
ject, and the guaranteed annual
wage developments.
He covers briefly some of the
300 bills introduced in the Ore
gon House and Senate he con
siders most important.
The legislature passed a mea
sure reducing' personal and de
pendency allowances from $600
to $500 and added a 45 per cent
surtax. However, Marr said, the
reduction was a "negative" vic
tory, in that heavy pressure was
brought to bear for a reduction
to $300 instead of $500.
Cooperation Asked
Furthermore, Marr states that
the net tax increase (state and
federal) is not as great as it
would have been had more strin
gent state propospals been ad
opted.
Marr calls upon labor men
to work closely with the feder
ation in obtaining a repeal of
the "drastic and one-sided anu-
picketing law. The measure s
constitutionality was challeng
ed in a state supreme court
case, Gilbertson vs. Culinary Al
liance, last March 30. The court
held one section was unconsti
tutional. It prohibited picketing
by any person or organization
not certified or recognized as
the bargaining representative of
employees of the place picket
ed. However, the court upheld
section 16. This paragraph
makes it unlawful for any per
son to compel, intimidate, coerce
or discriminate against any em
ployee in his free choice of se
lecting his union, and whether
to belong to a union. It prohib
its picketing for the purpose of
compelling, intimidating, coerc
ing or influencing an employee
of any employer to join a labor
organization. 1
AFL President Quoted
Marr quotes AFL President
George Meany's comment on the
"sluggish decline of unemploy
ment." He points out that Port
land was put in employment
category D by the U. S. Labor
ripnartment. Cities are rated A
through F in order of increas
ing unemployment.
Marr censures the "financial
and business interests which
dominate the administration
from the cabinet down" and
which "express the economic
philosophy of the president and
the administration.'
"I'LL GET OUT" Secretary
of the Air Force Harold E.
Talbott shown in Washing
ton as he told a Senate In
vestigating Committee he
would quit his outside busi
ness activities if such action
would aid the Air Force.
Talbott Business
Dealings to Get
Public Hearing
Washington (U.R) The Sen
ate Investigating subcommittee,
with its Republican members
crying "smear," voted Saturday
to hold full public hearings on
Air Secretary Harold E. Tal-
bott's priva'te business dealings
with defense contractors.
Chairman John L. McClellan
(D-Ark.) announced that open
hearings on the "Talbott mat
ter" will begin Monday after
noon. Names of the leadoff wit
nesses were not disclosed.
Week of Wrangling
The decision topped off a week
of partisan wrangling over the
proprietv of Talbott s continued
association with Paul B. Mulli
gan & Co., a New York engin
eering firm. Talbott has ack
nowledged receiving an income
of about $50,000 a year as
"special partner" in the firm
which has been employed by a
number of big defense contract
ors to do clerical efficiency
studies.
But Talbott denied there was
anything wrong in his writing
and telephoning industrial ex
ecutives, from his Pentagon of
fice, to promote new business
for the firm. He told the sub
committee Thursday he would
cut his ties with the firm,
necessary, to place himself
"above suspicion like Ceasar's
wife."
Chairman John L. McClellan
(D-Ark.) said Republican and
Democratic members of the sub
committee agreed at a meeting
Saturday that the subcommittee
has no authority to advise Tal
bott one way or the other on
whether he should pull out of
the Mulligan firm.
McClellan also said he per
sonally shares "the assumption
that Secretary Talbott is inno
cent of wrongdoing," as GOP
members of the subcommittee
vigorously contend. But the
Arkansas Democrat said a thor
ough airing of the matter is "in
the interest of both the public
welfare and Secretary Talbott
himself."
Khrushchev Silent
Delegate at Geneva
Geneva (U.R) Communist
Partv Chief Nikita Khruschev
hasn't opened his mouth in the
Big Four conference meetings
This fact, emerging Saturday
from behind the closed door of
the summit meeting, added to
speculation among westerners as
to who is the true power in Mos
cow.
Is the real boss of Russia the
tubby, rumpled Khruschev? Or
is it well-manicured Premier
Nikolai Bulganin, the Red Army
marshal who couldn't keep in
step when he inspected a Swiss
honor guard?
During the Soviet pilgrimage
to Yugoslavia this spring, it was
Khruschev who pushed to the
fore. Bulganin quietly, stood on
the sidelines.
But Geneva has been Bulgan
in"s show, according to western
ers who kept their eyes on such
thines inside and outside the
Palais des Nations here.

ongress Pressures
For Adjournment;
House Has Log-Jam
'Must' Legislation
May Be Pushed Aside
Washington (U.R) Congress
turned on the pressure for ad
journment Saturday with the
prospect that additional legisla
tion once labeled "must" will
be shunted aside in the rush.
The adjournment goal set
long ago for next Saturday night
by general consent was being
dropped back a week although
congressional leaders still were
contending the lawmakers can
get out on time if they work
long and talk short from now
on.
Log-Jam Worse in House
The legislative log-jam, which
usually is worse in the oratori
cal Senate, for a change was
confined to the House. The Sen
ate, except fqr what it can't do
until the House acts, was about
ready to go.
The House calendar was still
fat, however, and mounting con
troversy posed new threats to
passage of two key measures
highway and school construction.
There were reports the contro-
ersial upper Colorado river
project, passed by the Senate
and approved by the House In
terior committee, would simply
be dropped from the House agen
da.
New public housing authority
sought by President Eisenhower
remained pigeon-holed by the
House Rules committee. But the
word was out that it will be
cleared to the floor early in the
week. GOP leaders were said to
have turned pressure on some
of their reluctant members.
The president's Compulsory
Military Reserve Bill, consider
ably watered down, and his
Minimum Wage increase, up
from 75 cents to $1 instead of
to 90 cents as he wanted, were
all but ready to send to the
White House.
Vaccine Purchase Approved
Authority for the government
to help buy Salk polio vaccine
has been approved by the Sen
ate and will be passed by the
House next week. Mr. Eisenhow
er wants $30,000,000 in cash to
make good on this and probably
will get that too.
The House chopped Mr. Eisen
hower's foreign aid appropria
tions heavily, and the Senate put
the money back in. A hot fight
is ahead on whose version will
finally pass. The House is ready
to do battle for its cuts.
The powerful House Rules
committee, which at this point
in the session has life-and-death
powers, announced Saturday it
would put aside other scheduled
business Monday to consider the
hotly-contested highway bill.
Air Force Academy
Funds Back in Bill
Washington (U.R) The Sen
ate Appropriations committee
Saturday restored $79,527,000
for construction of the new Air
Force academy at Colorado
Springs.
The academy construction
money was put back in a sup
plemental appropriation bill to
taling about $2,000,000,000
which had been gutted in the
House through a series of unusu
al parliamentary objections on
the floor.
The Senate committee also re
stored most of the money that
the armed services had asked
to finance a long list of military
construction projects at instal
lations both in this country and
abroad.
The committee also approved
860,000,000 for free distribution
of Salk polio vaccie. The admin
istration had asked for $30,000,
000.
A total of $270,800,000 was
approved for atomic plants and
equipment.
MM Woodworkers Baof
On Plan to End Strike
Portland, Ore. (U.R) Strik
ing workers of M and M Wood
working company plants in Ore
gon and Northern California
were balloting yesterday on
proposal of the Federal Media
tion service to end a walkout
that has idled the plywood plants
since July 1.
The voting will continue to
day. Federal - Mediator LeRoy
Smith did not reveal details of
the proposal but it presumably
called for reopening the plants
while negotiations continued.
The AFL Plywood Workers
union asked for a renewal of
its old contract while the firm
sought changes in contract
clauses other than basic wage.

Nixon ike
Has Won Friends
Among Russians
Two Major Points
Seen From Conference
Washington (U.R) Vice
President Richard M. Nixon said
Saturday that President Eisen
hower has won friends among
Russian leaders and cleared the
atmosphere for progress in fu
ture big power negotiations.
Nixon, who has seen confiden
tial Big Four reports from Gen
eva, gave those conclusions to
newsmen as part of his personal
appraisal of the weeklong Gen
eva conference.
Two Major Points
He said he believed two major
points have emerged.
First, he listed his conclusion
that the conference gave the
United States its first "adequate
forum" since World War II
'from which to counteract the
propaganda that the United
States is a warmonger and a
potential aggressor."
Second, Mr. Eisenhower's per
sonal contacts with Russian lead
ers have convinced them of "his
personal sincerity and his per
sonal trustworthiness."
Atmosphere Cleared
Acknowledging that one meet
ing "doesn't convince people for
a lifetime," Nixon said he never
theless believes the "atmosphere
has been cleared" for future
talks.
"The world can look with
much more hope for progress at
the foreign ministers conferen
ces and at the lower levels than !
when there were recriminations,
charges and coutercharges and
a complete lack of trust on both
sides," he said.
Nixon gave his informal ap
praisal of the conference as most
Senate Republican leaders main
tained silence on Mr. Eisenhow
er's revolutionary proposal of
Thursday for a big power ex
change of military information.
Crack US Troops fo
Be Shifted to Italy
Washington (U.R) South
ern Europe's defenses against
Communist attack will be re
inforced soon by the shift of
5,000 crack United States troops
from Austria to Italy, it was dis
closed Saturday.
Diplomatic and military in
formants said details of the
shift were being worked out be
tween Washington, Rome and
Paris, headquarters of the North
Atlantic Treaty organizations.
The formal announcement, one
informant said, might be made
in a few days.
The United States and Italy
are members of the 15-nation

Allied defenses in Europe. The
U. S. troops would be expected
to go to Italy this fall or early

Marshal's Office To Close;
Hanlin To Be Transferred
The U.S. deputy marshal's of
fice in Medford will be closed,
and Deputy Marshal Paul Hanlin
transferred to Portland, it was
reported Saturday.
The United Press quoted
Marshal Harold Sexton in Port
land as saying Hanlin will re
place a retiring deputy in the
Portland office.
Sexton, who on Friday said
he did not know if the office
would be closed in September
as rumored, and "I don't think
anybody else does," Saturday re
leased the contents of a letter
he had written to James M.
Main, Medford attorney and as
sistant secretary of the South
ern Oregon Bar association.

"The need for a deputy in
Medford does not now exist, par

Fossil Remains
Of Thunderbeast
Found in Oregon
Eugene (U.R) University of
Oregon announced Saturday that
one of the most important pal
eontological discoveries in the
Western half of the United States
has been made at Iron Mountain
in sun-baked eastern Oregon.
Dr. Arnold J. Shotwell, cura
tor of the university's museum
of natural history, said the dis
covery was of the fossil remains
of a brontothere, or thunder
beast, estimated to be 60,000,000
years old.
The fossil site, near Clarno,
was found by Alonzo W. Han
cock, amateur paleontologist.
last summer. ' He turned ' his
"find" . over to Dr. Shotwell,
who has had a crew of paleon
tologists working the diggings
ever since.
Bones of other fossils from
the Eocene Period have also
been uncovered. They include
the Hyraochyus, or little rhinoce
ros, the Titanotheres and Meta
mynodons, or aquatic rhinos.
Dr. Shotwell said the fossil,
remains of the "bronto," first to
be found west of the Rockies,
were deposited when the barren,
rugged region was swampland.

Foreign Ministers
To Map Peace Plan
At October Meeting
Ike Sees Brighter
Prospect for Peace
Geneva (U.R) The big four
concluded their historic confer
ence at the summit last night,
agreed unanimously they had
reduced the dangers of war, and
instructed their foreign ministers
to meet again in October to map
a concrete plan for peace.
President Eisenhower in his
final statement, said as a result
of the conference decisions "the
prospects of a lasting peace,
with justice, well being and
broader freedom are brighter."
"The dangers of the over
whelming tragedy of modern
war," he said, "are less."
No Solutions
Th e summit conference
brought forth no solutions for
the most vexing problems of the
cold war, and none had been ex
pected. But in two secret sessions in
its final hours, it averted a
threatened deadlock and through
mutual concessions, set a pattern .
for continuing efforts to reach
solutions to such issues as Ger
man reunification. European se
curity, disarmament and im
proved East-West contacts.

ganin, in his final conference
statement, agreed with Mr. Ei
senhower that "the decisions
taken here . . . will have a
great importance for other coun
tries and for universal peace.
He said he regretted only that
the conference had not consider
ed such Far Eastern issues as
Formosa, Red China's admission
to the United Nations and Indo
china. The Soviet Premier by-passed
his last opportunity at the con
ference to answer Mr. Eisen
hower's bold challenge to Rus
sia to swap arms secrets and
permit unlimited aerial recon
naissance as proof to- the world
of the sincere desries of both
nations for peace.
In their directive to the for
eign ministers for the October
ministers' conference, the heads
of government instructed them
to take up three main points:
1. European security and Ger
many. The ministers were told
to study all plans advanced here
for a European security pact and
for German reunification. The di
rective, in a concession by the
West, sidestepped any decision
whether these two studies should
be carried on simultaneously
as the West wanted. It provided
for participation or consultation
of both West and East German
governments in the German
talks, if the foreign ministers
found this desirable.
Disarmament Proposals
2. Disarmament. The direc
tive turned over to the United
Nations all disarmament propos
als a concession by Russia
which previously had insisted
they be handled only by the
foreign ministers. It proposed
that the U.N. Disarmament Com
mission's subcommittee next
meet Aug. 29 at New York.
3. Development of contacts be
tween East and West. The direc
tive instructed the foreign min
isters to name experts to study
measures for lowering trade and
communications barriers and
bringing about freer contacts
and exchanges between peoples.
