Ellsworth Praises
Administration for
Accomplishments
& Washington (U.R; Rep.
(Harris Ellsworth (R-Ore.) said
Saturday that President Eisen
hower's administration has
thieved "an impressive record
(lit accomplishments for the good
of the country."
But with Democrats in con
trol of Congress, there has been
much "pulling and hauling" on
needed legislation and "forward
progress has not been note
worthy." Severely Handicapped
"Any administration," he said,
':s severely handicapped if the
riVjposition party has control of
Cthe Congress."
Q Ellsworth gave his evaluation
(Of achievements of both the Ex
ecutive and Legislative branches
(f government in a news letter
o($t constituents.
He listed a,s the chief accomp
lishment of the executive branch
' peace throughout the world for
the first time in nearly a gen
eration." He addfd that "firmness and
cordiality" by the president and
his foreign advisers has eased
tensions in the cold war.
Also on Ellsworth's list for
(irie executive branch were:
"Communist influence in gov
ernment wiped out the ques
tion of subversives, and security
risks in government has ceased
to exist.
Inflation Over
"Inflation ended the value
of the dollar has remained al
most stable for more than two
years. Cost of living has been
stabilized.
"Wages and employment at
record high."
Ellsworth said many parts of
President Eisenhower's legisla
tive program were blocked in
the "political opposition cross
currents."
An example, he said, was the
long-range highway program
Avhich was "mauled, mangled
?nd disfigured" by the Demo
crats. A Democratic substitute,
he said, was rejected by a two-to-one
vote" by a disgusted
House of Representatives."

German City Provides
Pleasant Surprises
For Terry Brereton
(Editor's Note: Terry Brere
ton of Medford is now n Eur
ope as a delegate lo an inter
national YMCA meeting. This
is another in a series of arti
cles he is writing about his
experiences for The Mail
Tribune).
By TERRY BRERETON
We left Amsterdam for Han
nover, Germany, on July 20, by
train. We expected our train
ride to be no different than any
others, but when we arrived at
the last station before crossing
the border, something very un
expected happened. We had to
unload every piece of our lug
gage as fast as possible. Nobody
knew why.
When we were all on the plat
form, surrounded by our bag
gage, we found out that we had
gotten on the wrong car. There
was only one car in the train
that was going to Hannover, and
we had gotten on the wrong one.
We had to wait 20 minutes for
the right train to come.
We finally got on the right
train, and nothing else happen
ed the rest of the trip.
When we arrived in Hannov
er, we were met by our guides.
They led us. to our bus and we
went to a very nice, outdoor res
taurant. We were served a very
big ice cream dish, with whipped
cream and a cherry on top. By
the way, the German word for
essary to save her life. She re
ceived the same blood she had
donated.
Dr. John Strobe said the coin
cidence was "decidedly rare."

ice cream is eis , pronounced
"ice."
After we had been taken to
our hotel, and had washed up,
we went on a short tour of Han
nover. Before I had seen some of
Germany, I was a little reluc
tant to go, because in my mind
Germany was a war-torn( mili
tary controlled, disrupted coun
try. Subsequently I expected
our accomodations to be in old
tumbled-down buildings, over
ridden with fleas, cockroaches
and bedbugs, but when I saw
Hannover, my opinion of the
country was completely chang
ed. During the years since World
War II, Germany has done won
ders. She has taken away the
rubble, torn down the useless
structures and built some of the
most modern cities I have ever
seen.
Hannover is one of the great
est examples of this kind of
work. During the war she was
80 per cent destroyed. During
one air raid, 40,000 people were
killed. Today when you travel
through the city, you can see
very little evidence of this de
struction. Koln is another example of
the war. Today Koln has a pop
ulation of around 700,000. Dur
ing the war 20,000 people were
killed and the city was 79 per
cent destroyed. St. Paul's Cath
edral, which is 700 years old,
was hit by a total of 14 bombs
and nineteen shells. Koln still
has quite a few signs left show
ing the destruction, but she has
done a lot of reconstruction.
On the outskirts of the city
there are several peculiar-looking
hills. The hills were made by
the dumping of rubble. It is hard
to notice the waste now, be
cause the hidls are grown over
with grass and shrubs.
Compares Two Nations
When comparing England and
Germany, we got to wondering
why Germany has done so much
to rebuild the damage and Eng
land has done so little.
We discovered that England is
one of the more powerful na
tions of the world and that she
wants to keep that power. In
order to do this she 'has to give
more money to the world or
ganizations to which she be
longs. Germany, being a weaker
nation, does not have to give as
much and can put what she has
into reconstruction.
When I look at the damage
which war has caused it makes
me sick to remember that our
country did a lot of this dam
age. Let us pray that we never
have to fight another war.
I want to thank everyone at
home for making it possible for
me to come over here and see
what Europe is actually like.

Court Martial
Finds Lieutenant
Innocent of Charge
Fort Lewis, Wash. (U.R) A
nine-man General Court Martial
board Friday found 1st Lt. Jef
ferson D. Erwin, 38, Blanchard,
Okla., innocent of all charges of
collaborating with the enemy
while he was a prisoner of war
in North Korea.
The board went out at 2:10
p.m. and returned its verdict at
4:25 p.m.
Trial counsel Lt. Col. Glen R.
Bowen said Erwin's acquittal
"wipes the record clean." No fur
ther action, he presumed, would
be taken against Erwin.
No Comment
The defense counsel, Lt. Col.
Leslie Dixon, would not com
ment directly on the possible ef
fect of the decision on pending
collaboration trials. He did say,
however, he did not think the
other cases would be greatly af
fected. Throughout the 15-day trial
general opinion at Fort Lewis
seemed to side with the defend
ant, especially after defense
testimony which exposed condi
tions at prisoner of war camps
in North Korea and the treat
ment given United Nations
POWs by the Chinese and North
Korean Communists.
More than 40 witnesses testi
fied during the trial.
Gerlinger Homage
Planned Thursday
Salem (U.R) Foresters,
lumbermen, conservationists
and public leaders will meet at
the Black Rock Guard station
in Polk county next . Thursday
to pay homage to the late
George T. Gerlinger.
Albert Powers, member of the
State Board of Forestry, will
dedicate the 1000-acre forest as
the George T. Gerlinger State
Experimental Forest.
Gerlinger was a member of
the State Board of Forestry for
30 years and was instrumental
in passage of the Oregon Forest
Conservation act, in initiating
state forest research, and he
took an active part in the tree
farm movement.
The state forest will be set
aside as a laboratory In which
to determine the effect of thin
nings on a 40-year-old stand of
Douglas fir and whether the
thinnings can be manufactured
into lumber at a profit.

Legal Note
If you offer a bus driver a
bill so large in denomination he
is unable to change it, can he
rightly refuse to let you ride?
If he does he is in danger of
involving himself and his com
pany in a legal action. However,
the decision of the court may de
pend on the size of the bill pre
sented. In a recent case, a driver
unable to change a $5 bill re
fused to let the passenger ride.
The company was sued by the
passenger, who won the case and
was awarded $1,000 damages.
The judge said the bus driver
should have had change for $5.

United States Discloses Vital
Secrets of Breeder Reactors
Geneva (U.R) The United
States has revealed some of the
vital secrets of building atomic
furnaces that produce more high
powered fuel than they burn.
These disclosures pertaining to
the so-called breeders reactors
were another step towards inter
national " tiarnessmg or atomic
power for peace. They com
manded close attention from the
delegates to the two-week U.N.
atoms-for-peace conference
which ended Saturday.
Scientists here regard the
breeder reactors as one of the
most dramatic and important de
velopments of the atomic age.
Reports on progress in this field
have led U.S. officials to warn
that further American help in a
peaceful atomic energy program
might lead to construction of A
bombs by other nations.
Vital Information
. American researchers released
vital information on the new re
actors, nevertheless. Floyd L.
Culler Jr., of Oak Ridge, Tenn.,
national laboratory, led the re
ports with a survey of chemical
development work performed by
most of the major atomic energy
groups in the United States on
the problems of radiochemical
processing.
Culler described the tech-

niques for removing atomic
fuel such as uranium and pluto
nium from burned-out reactors
so it can be re-used.
Another Oak Ridge scientist.
Dr. Alam T. Gresky, detailed a
previously secret process used
for extracting fresh fuel from
one of the latest tye of reactors.
Gresky . told how to remove
U-233, a powerful fuel, . from
thorium, a new atomic material
iar more common in the earth
than uranium. He said thorium
is significant to the future of
economic nuclear production of
electrical energy since it may
make possible the simultaneous
production of power and fuel.
Gresky said the fuel extracted
from the reactor can be put back
in again and again to keep
the reactor working.
Another Method
Dr. Harold M. Feder, of Ar
gonne National Laboratories in
Chicago, described another
method of extraction along the
lines of steel refining. He said
the metal is converted back into
compounds resembling its ori
ginal ores. Newly developed
