There is an exhibit of locks in the National Housing Center right now. Some are awful old. Robert F. Loftus, who heads the press section of the center, showed me one of the exhibits. It was a set of Army handcuffs used in the Revolution. Bob said to try them on. "Maybe these things," he aid, "will tie your fat little lunch hooks so that you never again will get the National Asso ciation of Manufacturers, like you did once." He tied my hands with the ir on chains. Lucky somebody not Bob, who would like 1o see my hands tied for life was around with a key. Bob actually had no interest in allowing the Yale and Towne Manufacturing company to come into the housing center, showing off old locks. He had no concern except that most hous es these days have locks front, side, and back door, and they are necessary, to forestall evil prowlers. . , Trusted No One Among the locks in the exhi bit is an ornate one used by the conquering Persians in the year 336 B.C. Apparently the ancients trusted no man. Just like now. Another is known as the "Holy Sepulchre" lock. It was wrought by hand from extremely durable stuff called "wood of the desert." No insect had the physical equip ment to build a home there. The test of time had little effect, ei trier. This lock was set up against the threat of the evil and heavy of hand by Richard the Lion Hearted on the rebuilt gate of the Holy Sepulchre at Jerusalem. It was used for more than 600 years . without challenge. . Mil-, lions of pilgrims knelt and kiss ed the lock and wept a little un til it became an object of vener ation. "TT" Eternal Life The lock at length was re moved. It was copied to insure Americans Believed Dead in Plane Crash Penzance, England (U.R) Two of three American crew men were believed killed yester day when their U.S. Air Force B47 Stratojet bomber crashed into the Atlantic off England's western tip. The third crewman was saved. London headquarters of the U. S. Seventh - Air Division of the Strategic Air Command an nounced that the plane went down off desolate Land's End. A large scale sea and air res cue operation- was thrown into action to find any possible sur vivors. The Pendeen lifeboat, which put to . sea when news of the crash reached here, was report ed to have rescued one of the three U.S. airmen aboard the plane. The fate of the other two men was not known immediately. But unconfirmed reports said the body of one had been taken from the sea. The other still was miss ing. FREE MONEY New Haven, Conn.

He used to pay for parking tags given his customers but decided it would be cheaper to offer them pennies instead. new life. The Turks tucked it away because they wished it eternal life. Try and steal this one; and if you are successful, I dare you to take it to a pawn place and get a nickel for it without the law running in with sidearms cocked. Besides, all of the priceless relics are insured. Lloyds of London knows a good thing. Other pieces in the antique lock collection are examples of the 15th and 16th centuries. The padlocks of the period were "se cret." They aren't so simple even now that the secret is out. Any how, they exemplify the turmoil an,d lack of law. Today, man still doesn't trust his neighbor. There are locks on everything from the mail box to the outdoor privy at the summer cottage hideaway. I I used to have a neighbor who put a lock on his garbage pail. Dogs are like people.

Boot- Smith the Interior Developme Of Vote on By A. ROBERT SMITH Mail Tribune Correspondent Washington Two new de velopments in Congress this week improved the prospects of the federal Hells Canyon dam bill being brought 'to ' a showdown vote in both House and Senate. Bills author izing the proj ect have been jammed up in committees ' of House and Senate since last year because sponsors of the legisla tion have been unable to muster enough votes from committee members to bring it up for de bate. A R e publican congressman, Rep. J. Edgar Chenoweth of Col orado, is telling friends that he has decided to vote for the Hells Canyon bill a move that would break the solid line f Re publican opposition that hereto fore has kept the bill tied up in committee. : Chenoweth's vote appears to give sponsors of the bill a safe margin in the House Interior committee; where Democrats hold 16 seats and Republicans 13 seats. Up to now two . southern Democrats have indicated they would side with the 13 GOP members, giving opponents a 15 14 voting lineup that would stop the Hells Canyon bill. By switching over to support it, Chenoweth would reverse the situation and give, supporters of the bill a 15-14 vote, enough to clear it from the committee. Expects Support ' Chenoweth's reason for decid ing to support the high dam in Hells Canyon, where. Idaho Pow er co. hopes to construct three smaller projects, is a pragmatic one. By doing this he expects to win Democratic support for a controversial reclamation proj ect that is the biggest thing in his southeastern Colorado dis trict. It is the Fryingpan project on the Arkansas river, which is tied up by the Democrats in the House' Rules committee. " The logrolling ' arrangement between this Republican and Democratic sponsors of Hells Canyon recalls how midwestern sponsors of the St. Lawrence Seaway several years ago picked up western votes by promising to support pending reclamation bills, such as the Upper Colorado project. Today both the St. Law rence and Colorado projects have' been enacted by Congress a' tribute to the success of vet eran legislators to scratch the right backs in order to gain fav orable action : on . controversial legislation.' The development in the. Sen ate is the backstage plan to switch Sen. Russell B. Long CD La.) from the Interior commit tee, where he has said he would oppose Hells canyon, to the For eign Relations committee, where a vacancy now exists due to the recent death of Sen. Alben W. Barkley (D-Ky.). Appointment Expected - It is thought that Barkley's successor, named by Kentucky Gov. A. B. (Happy) Chandler, will be placed on the Interior committee, unless another Dem ocrat meanwhile asks for - the seat now held by Long. Backers of the Hells Canyon bill are hopeful this switch will provide them with a one-vote margin sufficient to pull the bill out on the Senate floor for de bate and a showdown vote in nts Improve Prospects Hells Canyon Issue Smith Urges Early Vote on Friday Salem (U.R) Oregon voters are urged by Gov. Elmo Smith to vote early . in Friday's pri mary election.. An early to, witt not only help to' relieve the) ueual. late evening congestion in some of the. larger precincts, but it will also give both the election and counting boards a better : break, Gov., Smith said. V "If it is possible to vote early, thii will be an accommodation to everyone concerned," the Governor added. Governor and Mrs. Smith will cast their ballots shortly after the polls open at Salem precinct number' 31 at Calvary Baptist church. ' They will then fly to Pendle ton and Hermiston where the Governor will participate in the Armed Services Day ceremonies and a tour of the Umatilla or dnance depot. . The Governor will return to Portland Friday evening to lis ten to early election returns. Washington (IIP) Indon esian President Sukarno has ar coming weeks. With Long on the Interior committee, the voting lineup has been 8-7 against the bill. This consisted of Long voting with the seven Republicans on the committee to block its approval, while the remaining seven Dem ocrats favored the bill. Among the committee members involv ed in this critical lineup are two from the Northwest who are supporters of the high dam. Sen. Henry M. Jackson (D-Wash.) and Sen. Richard L. Neuberger (D-Ore.).
