Russia Proposes
Treaty Assuring
Passage in Suez
8-Nation Committee
Formation Suggested
United Nations. N. Y. (U.R)
Russia proposed today that the
United Nations set up an eight
nation negotiating committee to
draft a new treaty guaranteeing
freedom of passage through the
Suez Canal.
Soviet Foreign Minister Dmit
ri Shcpilov suggested informally
that the committee should com
prise Egypt, Britain, India, Rus
sia, France, the United States,
Yugoslavia and Iran or Indon
esia and Sweden.
Shcpilov's suggestion came aft
er Egyptian Foreign Minister
Mahmoud Fawzi rejected the
proposal of Britain and France
that the UN Security Council
endorse the London Conference
proposal to internationalize the
canal. Fawzi also suggested a ne
gotiating committee.
Shepilov said the committee
could be instructed to draft a
treaty to replace the Convention
of 1888 governing Suez Canal
traffic and be instructed to pre
pare an international conference
"to be attended by all countries
using the Suez Canal" to consid
er and approve the new compact.
Shepilov, like Fawzi, rejected
the plans to internationalize the
Suez and pointedly remarked the
Panama Canal was controlled by
one country the United States.
Shepilov accused "American
oil monopolies" of planning to
take over -he administration of
the canal under a "consortium."
Accused of J5a bo tag
Fawzi accused Britain . and
France of acts of sabotage against
the operation of the canal. These,
he said, included refusing to pay
tolls and instigating non-Egyptian
pilots to walk off their jobs.
Fawzi, presenting the Egyp
tian case in the second day of
the Council's Suez debate; offer
ed solution but proposed a set of
principles that might be consid
ered by "a negotiating body of
reasonable size."
Britain and France last Fri
day submitted a resolution ask
ing the Council to endorse the
London Conference proposals to
Internationalize the waterway
and to urge Egypt to deal with
the western-formed Suez Canal
Users Association while negoti
ating a final settlement with the
West.

ranging from the rights of con
gressional witnesses to the anti
trust status of professional foot
ball. A millionaire's alimony trou
bles, appeals from convicted
Communist leaders, labor-management
relations, and other is
sues also were represented in the
big docket of cases the justices

The court acted today in a
series of terse orders, without
written opinions. Oral argu
ments and decisions on the cases
accepted for high court scrutiny
will be scheduled later.
Red Issues on Agenda
Agreed to decide whether con
gressional investigators may re
quire an ex-Communist to name

Island. III., union leader who
was convicted of contempt for
a 1954 appearance before the
House committee on un-American

Stevenson Appeals
For Funds To Pay
For TV Broadcasts
'Dollars for Memos'
Day Scheduled Oct. 16
Chicago (U.R) Adlai E.
Stevenson said today he is
"gravely concerned over lack of
funds" to pay for television
broadcasts of his Democratic
campaign speeches.
The presidential candidate
took to the telephone to appeal
to Democratic chairmen of the
48 states and the District of Co
lumbia to drum up enthusiasm
for "Dollars for Democrats Day"
Oct. 16.
Stevenson said the Oct. 16
door-bell-ringing drive for small
contributions "is an urgent mis
sion, second only to getting out
the votes on election day."
"I need not tell you that so
far our overall campaign has
been progressing well," he said.
"All around us we sense a rising
tide of optimism, which is com
pletely justified.
Says He Is Winning
"We are winning the cam
paign. But we must not be allow
ed to run out of gas. We must
continue to use this valuable, and
costly, medium of television to
keep talking sense to the Ameri
can voter.
"And right now, we are grave
ly concerned over lack of funds
to pay for this vital television
communication," Stevenson said.
Stevenson said he hoped that
nearly 500,000 Democrats would
take part in the fund drive work
ing 24 hours "and longer if nec
essary." He said money raised
will be used to- buy TV time so
that he and his running mate.
Sen. Estes Kefauver, can carry
their campaign "into 38 million
television homes" before election
day.
Big Phone Set-up
Stevenson placed the calls
from his country home at Liber
tyville. 111., northwest of here.
Telephone company officials said
more than 40,000 miles of wires,
cables and microwave systems
and 21 phone companies were
involved in the complicated hook
up. Press Secretary Clayton
Fritchey said that so far as he
knew this was the first time this
technique had been used.
City Police Arrest
Four Juvenile Boys
Four juveniles were arrested
on charges of larceny about 1:30
a.m. Sunday after Milo Martin
Randall, 521 Pearl st., Medford,
reported that several teenagers
were attempting to steal tires at
300 Mae st., Medford, according
to city police. ,
The juveniles included one 15-year-old
and two 16-year-old
Medford boys and one 15-year-old
Central Point boy, police
said. They were released to the
custody of their parents to ap
pear in juvenile court.,
Officers reported they chased
the boys across a field while the
teenagers were carrying a tire.
The juveniles escaped in a car,
police said, but were stopped
later by a patrol car.
Mary Wilhelmina Frederick,
921 North Central ave., Medford,
also reported to police Sunday
morning that several teen-agers
had entered a workshop in a
rear of a residence at 635 Palm
st., Medford. and smeared paint
on the shed walls. Police said
the juveniles admitted both of
fenses. Bulletin
Washington (U.R) The
Defense Department hat de
cided to recommend an end to
the doctors' draft next year,

can Medical Association said
today. ;
he was still a Republican. Morse
has labelled McKay the "hand
picked tool" of the White House.
There are important basic is
sues in the Oregon contest, the
principal one being public pow
er, conservation and federal aid
to education. But the one over
riding issue is Morse's personal
hostility toward Mr. Eisenhower.
Morse is one of the most color
ful men in the Senate. He can
be suave, articulate, urbane, the
master of the well-turned phrase
and the headline catching wordH
He is former dean of the Univer
sity of Oregon Law School. But
he also can be a hot-tempered
scrapper and he is the Senate's
filibuster champion.

politician, but he is just as tough
2-0 WIN GIVES
YANKEES LEAD
New York (U.R) Big Don Larsen pitched the first perfect
game in World Series history today. He did not allow a single
Brooklyn batter to reach base as he shut out the Dodgers 2-0 to
give the New York Yankees a three game to two lead in the 1956
classic.
Larsen threw only 97 pitches as he turned back 27 Dodgers in
a row, seven of them on strikeouts as he made a fourth inning
home run by Mickey Mantle and another Yankee run scored in the
sixth inning stand up to put the Yankees ahead in the series for
the first time.
Brilliant Fielding Makes Win Possible
So perfect was Larsen 's hurling that he threw three balls to
only one batter Pee Wee Reese in the first inning. Then with a
three-two count he slipped a third called strike by the Dodger
shortstop.
It took brilliant fielding by his teammates to make his perfect
game possible.
In the second inning, Jackie Robinson hit a hard ground ball
to the left of third baseman Andy Carey which looked like a hit.
But Carey got his glove on the ball and deflected it to shortstop
Gil McDougald who threw Robinson out at first.
Close Foul Ball Save Home Run
In the fifth. Mantle made a diving catch in deep left centerfield
to rob Gil Hodges of an extra base hit and the next batter, Sandy
Amoros, then lined what looked like it might be a home run down
the right field line.
But at the last minute the ball curved foul by inches.
Mantle's homer his third of the series and his eighth in series
play was the first hit given up by Maglie, who lost a heart
breaker.
The 39-year-old Dodger curve ball specialist, who had won the
first game of the series, gave up only five hits. But the first one
would have been enough for the tall good looking Larsen.
Mantle's count was two and two when he cirove a Maglie curve
ball into the stands. v
Insurance Run Added in Sixth Inning
In the sixth, the Yankees added an insurance run when Carey
led off with a single. With two strikes on him, Larsen sacrificed
Carey to second, from where he scored on Hank Bauer's single.
Maglie was to shut out the Yankees after that, getting the last
three hitters he faced in the eighth inning on strikes. But as good
as his pitching was, it was no match for Larsen's.

The county court has received
copies of detailed maps showing
the four routes under considera

County Judge Rodney Keating
reported this morning.
Two sets of the maps have
been received here, the other
by the city. Both sets are on
display and available for in
spection, the city set in the city
council chambers, the county set
in the county court's chambers.
. The maps in addition to show

four proposals.

City officials and council
members will hold a special
meeting to inform residents in
the Berrydale district of the
legal and financial implications
of the annexation proposed for
the area at 7:30 p.m. Wednes
day, Oct. 10, in the city hall.
Approximate boundaries of

50 Appointments
Made for Donations
Only 50 appointments to don

far by the local Red Cross, it
was announced today.
The Bloodmobile is scheduled
to be at the Medford Elks temple
between 1 and 5 p.m., Wednes
day, Oct. 10. The quota is 250
donors. .
Appointments may be made
by telephoning the Red Cross of
fice in the courthouse, 3-3813.
which Oregon is so abundant.
McKay charges his opponent
with complete instability, accus
ing him of consistent absentee
ism in the Senate and with "con
stantly changing positions on
any and all issues."
Morse won two previous Sen
ate terms as a Republican with
ease. It was obvious much of his
support even then came from
Democrats, especially among the
laboring groups. Since his break
with the GOP, many of his for
mer supporters, including most
of the state's newspapers, have
turned against him.
The outcome of this race is
anybody's guess but it's a cinch
the whole nation will be waiting
for it on a Tuesday night sbout
four weeks hence.
