0 O (J TWELVE MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE (TuMdar. October 11, 1959 Supervisors Prepare Perfect Circle Plant For Return To Work Mew Castle, Ind. 'HUM Thirty supervisory employees, protected 'by 1,000 National 'Guardsmen and full martial law, entered the violence-torn Perfect Circle Corp. foundry today and prepared it for re-opening. The troopers turned the small, three-story foundry into a fort ress to prevent any demonstra tions by striking CIO United Auto Workers and their sym pathizers. The returning work ers have to pass tanks and ma chine gun nests to get to 'their Jobs. The plant has been closed since last Wednesday, when nine per sons were wounded, eight of them shot, in a pitched gun bat tle between 1,200 surging dem onstrators and 100 non-strikers. Plant To Re-Open . But it will be reopened for limited production Wednesday under an order issued, by Gov. George N. Craig Monday. Craig, wbo has taken person al command in the crisis, im posed full martial law on New Castle and a surrounding two county area containing. 50,000 persons. "There is no law against an employer operating his plant if he can and that right will be preserved by the military," Craig said.' "Labor may use its eco nomic force. They both will do l it now without further violence." UAW leaders have warned that a new crisis may boil up Wednesday when about 100 non- strikers go back to work here, Union members throughout In diana are boiling mad, they said, and the union said it cannot be responsible for what happens if the plant re-opens. The UAW also refused to join federal mediators in a negotiat ing session, saying they could not bargain "with bayonets and Sherman tanks at our backs." Craig issued his order after failing to arrange a truce in the almost three-month dispute at the automobile piston ring com' pany. About 250 UAW members went on strike at New Castle last July, and negotiations stalled and bitterness mounted over the union's closed union shop de mand. f BURGESS PAINT & WALLPAPER STORE Comer fth & Holly, Diagonally Acre from the Peat Offica We Give S&H Green Stamps PHONE 2-9321 "Lat Us Recommend a Retiablo Painter" Gas Pipeline Blast Kills Two Orleans, Ind. (U.R) Two workers were killed and four were injured when a tquarter of a mile of new gas pipeline ex ploded and burst into flames near here. The blast occurred Monday when the new 16-inch line was cleaned, the last step before gas is piped. Killed were Ralph E. Menser, 34, Owensboro, Ky., an em ployee of the Texas Gas Trans mission Co. which laid the pipe line, and Steven W. Crawford, 35, Nashville, Term.,, a construc tion worker. , James L. Lawhorn, 30, Colum bus, Ind., was blown over a building by the force of the ex plosion. He was hospitalized at nearby Paoli, Ind., with severe burns. . Also Injured were Tom Con rad, Columbus, and Lester Har rington. Released after being treated for minor injuries was Louis C. Bradley, Minden, Ark. Cause of the accident, which took several hours to bring un der control, was undetermined.

Neuberg er (D-Ore.), would prefer no pow er development at all to devel opment of power by private in dustry, Frank Jenkins, editor and publisher of the Klamath Falls Herald and News said here yesterday. Jenkins, who spoke before a luncheon meeting of Jackson County Republican women in the Jackson hotel, stated that feder al power and agricultural subsi dies were devices used by dem agogues to win votes. Speaking of Morse and Neu berger, Jenkins said, "I'm sure they would rather see southern Oregon be a desert than allow development of private power . ( "Power developed in the Col umbia basin will be used there," Jenkins said, "and if we need 'Announcing...

He stressed southern Ore gon has been waiting 40 years, without results, for federal pow er development. Neuberger's statement that federal power could be produc ed for 2.2 mills per kilowatt hour is misleading, Jenkins said. That figure represented cost at the plant, rather than delivered to the people, and was possible only from a plant that operated tax free and had been built with public funds. Neuberger made the statement during a de bate with U. S. Congressman Sam Coons (R-Ore.), in Klamath Falls, Thursday night. The farm subsidy program has been injurious to southern Oregon livestock prices, accord ing to Jenkins. Because those who buy livestock to be fatten ed, must pay high, subsidized prices for wheat and corn, they must pay less to farmers for livestock bought as feeders. Of the six basic, subsidized crops, corn, .cotton, wheat, rice, peanuts and tobacco, only wheat is produced in commercial quan tities in this area, Jenkins point ed' out. U. S. Congressman Walter Judd (R-Minn.), gave a prelimin ary speech at the luncheon. The congressman stated that the Re publican party has fulfilled all of its campaign promises except balancing the budget. "T h e Republicans have cut taxes while increasing benefits to the public, the only time this has ever been done," Judd said, i Mount Vernon, Ind. (U.R) Mount Vernon almost missed a concert by the 11th Airborne Division Band from Ft. Camp bell, Ky., because the musical paratroopers missed Mount Ver non.
