Hiss Conviction Seen
In 'Dump Nixon' Move
Trenton, N.J. U.R The
dump Nixon drive is the outcome
of a four-year "underground
movement" by persons miffed at
Vice President Richard M. Nix
on's part in prosecution of Alger
Hiss, Sen. H. Alexander Smith
(R-N.J.) charged Wednesday
night.
Smith, who said the Republi
can ' party "can't do without
Nixon," charged that persons
and groups opposed to jailing of
Hiss on perjury charges have
spent years laying plans "to
undermine Nixon and destroy
him."
Those plans "started an under
ground movement in this coun
try which was not necessarily
Communist inspired," Smith
said, "but certainly was inspired
by those who felt Hiss should not
have been convicted."
TREE FIRE
Riverton, Wyo. (U.R) The
Riverton fire department has
something new on its record

house. Officials said the children
who constructed the tree dwell

a kerosene lamp.

Portland State College.

metropolitan college plant here

lounges and meeting rooms. Pre

Madison, Wis. (U.R) If you
want to catch one of Wisconsin's
famous giant muskellunge, you'll
bait you hook with a fish that
looks big enough to make a
meal in itself.
The return on your "invest
ment" can be up to 60 pounds
of one of the most ferocious
game fish found in fresh water
and the thrill of a lifetime.
Wisconsin officials, applying
much the same theory to their
efforts on behalf of the state's
tourist industry, spend a quarter
of a million dollars each year to
Harriman's Staff
Given Polio Shots
Chicago (U.R) Doctors inocu
lated the Harriman for Presi
dent headquarters staff with
Salk vaccine Thursday to protect
them against a record outbreak
of polio here.
Dr. Herman N. Bundesen,
president of the Chicago Board
of Health, took doctors and
nurses to the headquarters in
the Conrad Hilton hotel to ad
minister the shots at the request
of Gov. Averell Harrimann of
New York, aspirant for the
Democatic presidential nomina
tion. Bundesen personally super
vised the inoculations.
The mass inoculations were set
up after a personal telephone re
quest to Bundesen from Harri
man as the case count in the
city's worst polio outbreak in
history climbed to 653 for the
year.
promote the state as a vacation-
land.
The return is "conservatively
estimated" at $400,000,000 a
year, or $1,600 spent by tourists
for every $1 spent by the state
government.
Only Educated Guns
J. H. H. Alexander, who
heads' the conservation depart
ment's recreation section, said
there is no way now to make
more than an educated guess at
the state's actual tourist income.
But with Michigan claiming a
$500,000,000 yearly tourist busi
ness, Alexander said the $400,
000,000 figure for Wisconsin was
"conservative."
Alexander opened the section
20 years ago with a $50,000 year
ly budget and answered 17,954
queries from prospective tour
ists. Last year, the section an
swered 131,926 requests for in
formation, and by June 1 this
year had processed 98,740 in
quiries. 18,000 more than at the
same time in 1955. The budget
for the work now is $253,000.
The answer service is one of
the agency's biggest jobs. Each
query is answered with a color
ful 26-page booklet outlining va
cation advantages of nine sec
tions of the state, a list of organ
izations that will give detailed
information on each section, a
road map, and a set of fishing
regulations. If the letter writer
asks about a special part of the
state, he'll get additional liter
ature supplied by tourist organ
izations there.
The recreation section also
places advertising in newspa
pers, magazines and television to
promote the state's tourist busi
ness. Postage, printing, ad space
and production cost about $150,-
000 last year, Alexander said.
New Phast of Work
The agency went into an en
tirely new phase of work this
spring when it opened a plush
tourist information center in the
Chicago loop. It is estimated that
about 80 per cent of Wisconsin's
out-of-state tourists come from
the Chicago metropolitan area,
and the patronage at the center
seems to bear it out.
"The telephone rang the min
ute the installers hooked up the
wires," Alexander said. "I an
swered and gave the man the in
formation he wanted and then
asked him how he got the num
ber. He said he had copied it
Prison Term Meted
In Derailment Try
Portland (U.R) Dale Phil
ip Cornwell, 20, Spokane, Wash.,
has been sentenced to two years
in prison for attempting to wreck
a pasenger train.
Cornwell was sentenced by
U.S. Judge Claude McColloch
who rejected a plea by the de
fendant that he be placed on
probation so he could attend
college and study engineering.
Cornwell pleaded guilty last
month to -attempting to wreck
the Union Pacific City of Port
land Domeliner at Boardman.
Railroad ties were put on the
track one day and scrap iron
another.
No one was hurt and there
was no damage as the locomotive
knocked the material from the
tracks.
off the door of the center more
than a week before and had been
calling every day since."
Wisconsin has some other im
portant services it hopes will
make friends. The conservation
department puts out a weekly
county-by-county report on fish
ing conditions, aimed at week end
travelers. The highway depart
ment issues maps periodically
showing road construction and
detpurs. And the State Public
Service Commission clamps a
Memorial Day to Labor Day ban
on all heavy truck week end
travel except for hauling of perishables.
Salem (U.R) Jack C. Stan
gier, Pendleton, has been ap
pointed as a member of the Ore
gon Racing Commission.
