The Paul Bunyan Shipwreck The immortal story of the sinking of the Titanic in the mid night time of Sunday; April 14 15, 1912, has been told in many various ways. Never before have I read it in such a gripping re cital of hard-and-fast facts as in the new book, "A Night to Remember," by Walter Lord,. Just thf bare facts of the col ossal shipwreck stump the imag ination. The Titanic was 882V2 feet long, 92VS feet wide, 175 feet from keel to funnel tops, and she weighed 46,328 gross tons. "God Himself couldn't sink her," boasted one of her crew. Then she sideswiped an ice berg on a midnight time of blazing stars and dead-calm sea. With a 300-foot gash in her hull, she sank. Two hours and 40 min utes after the collision she foundered and dived, taking 1,502 human lives with her. The Brave Baker One man, Chief Baker Charles Joughin, rode the stern from 150 feet above the water in the start of the dive, as Walter Lord nar rates it. The man was quite at ease; having fortified himself in all respects with the best Scotch on the ship. Life belt on, he had toiled steadily to start women and children first on the way to rescue. At last the list of the sinking ship made him swing over the rail to find surer footing on the side plates. As the tilt of the dive shar pened, Joughin climbed until he was on the rounded plates of the stern. He looked at his watch. It was 2:15 in the morning. Then the stern sank like an elevator. News Story Helps Find Lost $20 Bill Allan Bowman, 13-year-old son of Mrs. Ella Bowman, 820 Oak st., was a happy boy Sun day, thanks to the Medford Mail Tribune and to Mrs. Marjorie Truman, 1048 West 12th st. Last Friday afternoon, Allan dropped a $20 bill which his mother gave him to pick up a COD package at the Medford post office. A news item of the loss ap peared in the Mail Tribune Sun day morning, and by 11 a.m.. the S20 had been given to Paul Kurovsky, a member of the post office staff. Mrs. Turman found the $20 near the entrance to the post office. Surgeon Hunted On Kidnap Charges Longview, Tex. (U.R) Police in two states searched today for the surgeon who threatened that his four-year-old stepdaughter "may never be seen again" if charges accusing him of kidnap ing his own son are not dropped. Dr. Frank Sainburg, Big Spring, Tex., disappeared Satur day with his son, Philip Sain burg II, 4, and Mary Jean Nance, daughter of his present wife by a previous marriage. Sainburg telephoned the girl's grandfather, Neal Smith, from Hobbs, N.'.M., late Saturday night and said, "You will never see her again" if kidnaping charges are not dropped. Sainburg allegedly kidnaped his son from a school in Ithaca, N.Y., Nov. 14. A district court at Longview ordered him jailed for refusing to return the boy. Press Censorship in Brazil 'Temporary' Rio De Janeiro, Brazil (U.R) Acting President Nereu Ramos has told the Inter -American Press association that press cen sorship in Brazil was only a "temporary emergency meas ure." In a cable to the IAPA Ramos said the armed forces who ousted Acting President Carlos Luz on Nov. 11 and prevented Joao Cafe Jr. from resuming his office only wanted to preserve democracy in Brazil. Censorship was imposed on newspapers and radio stations last week under the terms of the "state of siege" proclaimed to keep Cafe from taking his case to the courts.

Portland's largest book store, Saturday announced purchase of Lowman and Hanford, Seat tle stationers and printers. JI5! STEVEMSSggr stepped off into the water. His life belt buoyed him up. He did not even get his head wet. The alcohol in Joughin's ar teries withstood the freezing water. An hour and three-quar ters later he came paddling, with no little strength, up to an al ready pverloaded collapsible boat. The best he could hope for was help in hanging on. He did, he came out alive and cold sober. 13 Boats The Carpathia, rescue ship, brought ' 704 survivors beside Chief Baker Joughin to Pier 54 in New York harbor four days later. She also carried the 13 lifeboats which had served to save this many lives. Mr. Lord has not taken notice that they were boats made of Western red cedar lumber, light, strong, ma- neuverable, the one surviving success of the Titanic and her equipment. There were not enough of them, not nearly a third enough The faith that the great ship was unsinkable had been so strong among the experts that lifeboats supply and drills had been ob served only as a shadow of form Cedar from the Pacific North west might have saved all of , the 2,207 of the Titanic's passengers and crew, had it been provided as the planking of 50 lifeboats. The Titanic was a floating ex hibit of ornate wood interiors and furnishings. The millwork, doors, paneling, beams, posts, floors and furniture were the costliest woods that the forests and mills of the world could sup ply. All was lost, insa single voyage. The like will not be seen again. Decorations Erected At CP Rural Station Central Point Central Point Rural Fire Protection district's fire hall is decorated for the Christmas season with a row of colored lights around it. Firemen assembled the lights and put them up yesterday. Funds for the materials came from persons grateful for the firemen's efforts during the Blackwell hill and Table Rock fires of Labor day week. The money given to the fire men to spend for themselves in cluded one major donation of S50 by a man who felt the fire men should "have a dinner on him." Firefighters, however, de cided to spend the money for something the public could also enjoy. Fire Chief Richard Krupp said that the decorations were not quite completed yesterday. It is planned to add to the mate rials each year.
