FOREIGN AID SLASHED The Administration made an
all-out appeal to senators to restore at least $600 million
of the $1.1 billion which the House cut from the Foreign
Aid Bill in a special bipartisan meeting of Senate leaders
at the White House. Minority leader Republican William
Knowland (left) and Majority leader Democrat Lyndon
Johnson talk with newsmen following the meeting. Sen
ator Johnson, Texas, said, "No commitments were asked
and none were given." He said the Administration still
has to prove the S600 million should be restored. Senator
Knowland (Calif.) said the matter of continuing aid to
Marshal Tito of Yugoslavia "was discussed and was one
of the matters on which additional details were asked."
There's a strong move to cut off aid to Yugoslavia be
cause of its reconciliation with Russia.
Russian Church
Leaders Delayed
By Bomb Threat
New York (U.R) A "crank"
delayed departure of eight heav
ily guarded Russian church lead
ers four hours, until early today,
with a telephone warning that
a bomb was planted aboard their
aircraft .
The churchmen and 29 other
passengers left for Europe on
board the KLM airliner at 1:51
a.m. EDT) after government
agents methodically searched
all luggage and the plane with
fluroscopes and other bomb de
tection devices.
Anonymous Call
The last of the passengers had
just taken his seat shortly be
fore the aircraft's scheduled 10
p.m. (EDT) departure Wednes
day when an anonymous tele
phone call was received at the
KLM airport ticket counter.
"There is a bomb on the
plane," a male voice said. Then
he hung up. I
All passengers were immed
iately debarked from the air
craft. The Russians were solid
ly ringed by 40 grim policemen
assigned as bodyguards.
Bitter Picketing
The churchmen, who had been
the objects of bitter anti-Russian
picketing during their 11
day U.S. visit, looked glum but
undisturbed.
Whitebearded Metropolitan
Nicolai of the Russian Ortho
dox church said at a press in
terview at Idlewild airport that
he and his colleague were "not
in the least worried" by the
bomb scare.
The unusual security measures
had been taken from the time
the Russians arrived at the air
port. Departure time of their air
craft had not even been announced.
Indians Criticize
Neilberger's Plan
To Halt Pelton Dam
Madras U.R Indians of the
Warm Springs Federation yes
terday dispatched a telegram to
Sen. Richard L. Neuberger, critl
cal of his proposed Senate
amendment which would halt
construction of Pelton dam on
the Deschutes river.
Neuberger earlier this week
had introduced an amendment
to the Barrett state water rights
bill. The amendment would
compel suspension of any feder
al license which has been grant
ed where a state license had not
been approved and construction
was still in its initial stage.
Warm Springs council chair
man Avex Miller quoted the
federation's telegram to Neu
berger as saying:
"The Warm Springs tribal
council vigorously opposes your
amendment to S. B. 863. You
have not consulted with us on
this vital matter which would
materially aid in development
of economy and resources of
1250 people. By treaty rights of
1855 half of the water of the
Deschutes belongs to the In
dians. We are a minority group
whom you should recognize and
protect."
Under terms of the contract
the Indians held with Portland
General Electric Co., the build
ers of Pelton dam, the Indians
would receive a minimum S90,
000 payment annually and this
amount would increase to $250,-
000 annually when Round Butte
dam, a second proposed dam on
the Deschutes, goes into opera
tion. '
Male Youths Setting Emotional
Patterns for Rough Time in Old
Age, Navy Phychiatrist Declares
Thursday. June 14. 19SS
MEDFORD (ORiaOIC) MAIL TRIBUNE THREB
By DELOS SMITH
United Press Science Editor
New York (U.R) Today's
male adolescents are setting up
emotional patterns within them
selves which will give them
rough old ages, according to the
chief phychiatrist of the Navy
who, because of his job, can be
taken as an outstanding authori
ty on male adolescents. '
Furthermore, these patterns
will give the nation a rough
time when today's very young
men have become old men, con
tinued Dr. and Captain George
N. Raines in a recent lecture to
a scientific audience. He based
his remarks on experiences with
adolescents who make up the
bulk of the Navy's forces.
Becoming Proven Fact
It is a widely accepted theory,
which more and more is becom
ing a proven fact, that tHe emo
tional attitudes established in
adolescence rule individuals the
rest of their lives. For that rea
son, it alarmed Dr. Raines that
there is distinctly less of a sense
of duty among 18 to 20-year-olds.
The sense of duty is being re
placed by the question, "What's
in it for me?" He cited the
Navy's experience with its "bad
conduct discharge," which is a
form of punishment based upon
the idea that "each of us has a
sense of duty, that no man
wishes to admit that he cannot
perform the duties required of
him, and that a man's conscience
punishes more effectively than
all the prisons in the world."
Large Increase
The Navy's use of this punish
ment increased 300 per cent be
tween 1940 and 1950 although
during the same period its pro
gram for rehabilitation offenders
has been greatly improved. Dr.
Raines added that this type of
discharge made up only a min
ute part of total naval discharges
but "nonetheless, this table in
crease must be recognized as in
dicating a trend."
This increasing group of ado

nothing in an aggressive way. He
gave as examples people who sit

More Demands
When aggressively passive per
sons grow old, "many will sit
back aggressively and demand
that they be supported." He saw
the addition of disability benefits
to social security laws as some
thing which "might easily bank

be any sizable segment of aging

the population.
"Any inducement to increase
the amount of support, or hasten
its beginning, as disability ben

immediately," he said. "Since the
emotional processes involved are
largely outside the awareness of
the individual, this behavior, as
most human .behavior, will not
be regulated by legislation."

Young Denver Mother Vows
To Forget 'Nightmare' of
Birth of Son by Rapist
Denver (U.R) A Methodist
mother vowed today to forget
the "living nightmare" of the
birth of her son, fathered by a
rapist.
Mrs. Joe Anson, 27, was raped
by a young airman in her apart
ment last Sept. 16. Her baby
which was born Tuesday was
immediately given to adoption
authorities.
Neither Saw Infant
Neither she nor her unem
ployed, sick husband saw the
infant.
"This nine months has been a
living nightmare for both my
self and my husband," Mrs. An
sand said. "I've felt the baby
stirring in my body and then
I'm reminded of that terrible
night."
She said she never could have
loved the rapist's child and only
Hiccups
Ey

Los Angeles PJ.PJ A frail

cause an eight-year siege of
hiccups appears to be over.
- "It's like a miracle," O'Leary
said. "It's wonderful, no more j
hiccuping every second ... the :
house is so quiet." j
O'Leary, now 30, began hic
cuping on June 13, 1948, after
his appendix ruptured. Under
the attacks his weight dropped
from 138 pounds to 75 and he
suffered several heart attacks.
Two weeks ago his hiccups stop
ped as he was watching tele
vision. Only twice since have the
hiccups returned and Wednes
day the shipping clerk ex
plained, "I believe I have hic
cuped for the last time."
O'Leary went to more than
200 doctors in an effort to halt
the never ending attacks. His
plight became known and he re
ceived some 65,000 letters offer
ing advice on how to stop hiccups.

may move from Denver to help
bury the memory of the last
nine months.
Welfare workers were bent
on protecting the child from
shame in later life. They said
they would allow "no publicity
whatsoever" hereafter.
Couples from the United
States and Alaska have offered
to adopt the unloved child. But
the Denver Welfare Council said
the identity of the couple finally
chosen will not be made public
because "we have to consider
the child."
Father in Prison
The baby's father, John ' D.
Peters, 18, a phlegmatic, hulk
ing youth -who admitted attacks
on Mrs. Anson and several other
Denver women, probably will
never see his son, either. He is
serving a sentence of 40 to 80
years in the Colorado Peniten

Plane Passenger
Opens Wrong Door;
Plunges To Death
Shelby, N.C. (U.R) A honey
mooning passenger opened the
wrong door of an airliner in
flight Wednesday night and
hurtled 6,500 feet to his death
near the cemetery of a country
churchyard.
The body of Oren Ase Pruitt,
38, of Charlotte, N.C, dug a hole
nearly four feet deep in hard
packed earth just a few steps
from the cemetery at Zion
Church six miles from Shelby.
Pruitt s bride said she became
thirsty and asked her husband
to get her a drink of water. - She
said he found the restroom door
locked and then tried the plane'a ,
side door, thinking it led to an
other restroom.
Luther Haynes, caretaker of
the church, told authorities he
heard a "whistling sound" over
head and then saw Pruitt't fall
ing body 30 or 40 yards away.
Haynes said there was "a tort
of explosion when it hit."
"I was just walking home
from the store and was fixing to
go into the house when it hap
pened," the caretaker said. "It
looked like a man and I went
to see. Then I called the sheriff."
Pruit and his wife, whom he
had married Tuesday, were fly
ing to Asheville, N.C, to visit
her parents when the tragic ac
cident happened.
Pruitt was sucked from the
Piedmont Airplanes plane when
the door opened. The fatality
was Piedmon't first since the
line was formed Feb. 20, 1948.
Mrs. Pruitt was placed under
a doctor's care when the plane "
reached Asheville a few min
utes after the tragedy. She was
reported to be in a state of
collapse today.
Flight Attendant Burt Barnes,
in the cockpit of the plane when
the accident happened, said he
rushed out to find the door open
after a blast of air swept into
the plane.
Barnes said a passenger told
him "A man just went out the
