Colony Threatens
Boycoll of Airline
Kingston, Jamaica (U.R)
The government of this British
Caribbean colony threatened
Saturday to boycott British
overseas airways unless it halts
racial discrimination at way
stations on its Atlantic route.
Chief Minister Norman Man-
ley said the management of the
Ft. Montagu Beach Hotel in
Nassau discriminated against Dr.
and Mrs. Lenworth Jacobs when
they were stranded there by a
plane breakdown on their way
here from the United States. He
gave no details of the incident.
Unless Boac takes steps to in
sure that its passengers will not
be insulted, Manley said, "Jamai
cans traveling on government
business will in future use other
airlines."

was towed to the high seas by
the American fishing vessel John

Hundreds of persons jammed the
docks of this northern port to
bid farewell.
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.
Directors Elected
By Oregon Horsemen
Salem (U.R) The first an
nual meeting of the Oregon
Horsemen's Association ended
here yesterday.
New directors chosen at the
business meetings included Wil
liam Healy, Salem; Richard
Wagner, Oregon City, and Wil
liam Jones, Vancouver, Wash.
Resolutions passed by the as
sociation included one urging
the licensing of registered stal
lions. Association members will
discuss a program to provide
riding facilities for groups in
congested areas with state, coun
ty and local officials.
J. K. GILL BUYS STORE
Portland (U.R) J. K. Gill Co.
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.
