American Priests Say
Their Spying Charges
'Mockery' In China
Hong Kong (U.R) Two
American priests, pale and thin
after two years of solitary con
finement in Red China, said
Saturday their trials on charges
of spying were a "mockery" of
justice.
One of the Priests, the Rev.
Martin Vincent Garvey of Union
City, N. J., said he was given
"rough treatment" if he failed
to cooperate with his Communist
captors. He said he was threat
ened with execution if he did
not confess.
Garvey and the Rev. Marcellus
White of Waltham, Mass., were
set free early Saturday after
about four years in prison, the
last two in solitary confinement.
Breaks Under Strain
White broke under the strain
of his long confinement and wept
as he and Garvey crossed the
border to freedom at Hong Kong.
With the release of the two
Roman Oatholic Priests of the
Passionist Order 22 Americans
now have been freed from Red
China since talks got underway
between U. S. and Communist
Chinese Envoys at Geneva last
Aug. 1. At least 15 others still
are held.
The Reds had promised to re
lease Mrs. Homer V. Bradshaw
of New York, wife of a Presby
terian Missionary also in Red
China. She did not appear at
the border, however.
Garvey and White said they
did not see her on the train that
brought them from Canton to
the border. Mrs. Laura Lau,
American wife of a Chinese Mis
sionary, said when she was freed
last week that Mrs. Bradshaw
as very ill when she left.
Wear New Clothes
The two Priests, wearing new
clothes given them in Canton,
appeared in reasonably good
health when they crossed the
border. They were greeted by
U. S. Vice-Consul Robert Ayl
ward, Father Anthony Moloney
and British officials.
White said the Reds charged
him with passing economic and
military information to other
Priests'. He said he was arrested
in 1952 and kept in prison in
Boy Finds Bodies
Of Mother, Sister
Frozen in Barnyard
Enterprise, Ore. U.PJ An
11-year-old boy found, the froz
en bodies of his mother and a
younger sister in a farmyard
south of here Saturday.
Dead were Mrs. Victor Crow,
about 38, and her three-year-old
daughter, JeniLe. Authorities
believed Mrs. Crow may have
broken her back or neck falling
from a haystack ladder Friday.
They thought the tiny daughter
may have followed her out as
she went to feed the stock and
died of exposure.
The father is employed in La
Grande as a carpenter.
Wallowa county coroner Len
thal Bollman said the bodies
were taken to a funeral home
here.
Mrs. Crow's son, Philip, found
Hunan Province until last Oct.
29 when he finally was tried. He
said he was sentenced to four
years and released in advance
for "good conduct."
Garvey said he was accused of
resisting the revolution, coop
erating with the Nationalists and
spying. Arrested Dec. 21, 1951,
Garvey was tried the same- day
as White, sentenced to five years
and let off for good behaviour.

Pfc. Robert J. Cnstplln. 20 of
Vjenver, Colo., received a New
York City Traffic Court letter
Saturday accusing him of reck
less driving on Aug. 2 and order

sibly 24 hours after the acci
dent. The boy said his mother
told him Friday morning she
was going to attend a meeting
and a choir practice in the eve
ning. He and his sister, Lou Ann
8, went to bed Friday night
thinking, she would be home
later.
Mrs. Crow's body was found
face down by a haystack and
two bales of hay were found
nearby. The coroner said the
bales of hay may have come
loose and knocked Mrs. Crow
from the ladder.
The daughter's body was

mother.

seph to inform City Marshal

Safeguards For Peace

United Nations truce observers

"safeguards" against new fight

Some NW Glaciers
Growing, Expert Says
Portland (U.R) Some gla
ciers in the Pacific Northwest
are increasing in size by 250
feet a year, in a downward di
rection. That was- the assertion here
Saturday by A. E. Harrison,
glacier expert at the University
of Washington. Harrison told
the Pacific Northwest section of
the American Geophysical Un
ion that other glaciers in the
world have started to grow in
the last 10 or 15 years but that
the ones in the Northwest are
outdoing all others.
He said growth is concentrat
ed in the northern Cascades of
Washington. It is caused by cold
er summers and heavy winter
snowfall.
