Mr. Truman expressed this belief Thursday night in a speech before the San Francisco Press and Union League Club. Earlier in the dav. he spoke to the convention of the Interna tional Bakery and Confectionery Workers Union. 'Strenuous Demands' Seen Mr. Truman touched upon the issue of the atomic arms race in a discussion of the "strenuous demands" imposed upon the man who will be chosen President T.'ov. 6 .

At the same time Communist ambitions threaten the freedom of mankind every where . . . "One thing is clear. We must have new policies to meet new conditions. We cannot let the Communist outsmart us. We must, find a way to limit arm aments before civilization is de stroyed by nuclear weapons.' Mr. Truman said America must preserve its own freedom as well as the peace of the world. These are staggering tesks. but there is no escaping them. We must meet them with action as well as words." Earlier, at a press conference, Mr. Truman was asked what he thought about Stevenson's ham mering away at the Eisenhower administration for failing to press for discontinuance of H- bomb tests. "No comment," he answered. 'Mr. Stevenson is running the campaign." Mr. Truman was to leave to day for a speech in Butte, Mont.

PHONE 2-8037 Australia Lays Foundation For IGY in Antarctic Area Sydney (U.R) With an unpre cedented surge of activity during the Antarctic winter, the Aus tralian expedition at Mawson has laid a substantial foundation on which to build its prepara tions for the International Geo physical Year (IGY) 1957-58. In the season when conditions make practically every type of activity almost impossible, the Australian National Antarctic Expedition capitalized with the construction of the first hangar for aircraft built in the south polar regions. Flying, usually kept to a minimum during win ter, was made comparatively easier, and many flights were made by the Beaver and Ausfcer aircraft. Members of the Royal Aus tralian Air Force flight at Maw son made these flights under Four-Year-Old Cured Of Driving Curiosity Bridgeport, O. (U.R) Four- year-old Terry Ikey has been cured of his curiosity about driv ing. While his father was inside a gasoline station, located on a grade here, Terry turned on the automobile's ignition, stepped on the accelerator, and the follow ing events ensued: The Ikey car, which the father had left in reverse gear, rolled backward down the hill and struck another car. The second car was knocked over an embankment into a small stream. The Ikey car kept rolling, hjt ting three other automobiles. Meanwhile, the first car, only partly submerged in. the creek, caught fire in the engine area. Bridgeport firemen rushed to the scene, tying up traffic dur ing one of the rush hours. Little Terry, tossed around in his father's car as it swerved wildly here and there, was black and blue from bruises. Total cost of Terry's "driving lesson": $1,900. Colfon School Saved By Molalla Firemen Mollalla !U.R Molalla fire men succeeded in saving the Colton school early yesterday when fire destroyed the old school gymnasium, only 100 feet from the new school. Val Renhard saw flames com ing from the two-story structure and notified his wife, operator of the Colton switchboard, who sent in the alarm. A car owned by H. Osibov, Colton principal, was demolish ed when, steel reinforcing beams from the gymnasium fell on it. A pickup truck stored in the building also was destroyed. But firemen managed to save two school buses. ' conditions never previously ex perienced in the Antarctic. The construction of the hangar permitted the garaging and serv icing of the aircraft under cover, while most other Antarctic ex peditions were immobilized by New Depot The Australian exploration was kicked off early in May when the airmen, led by Squad ron Leader Douglas Leckie, car ried out 19 missions, and logged 80 flying hours. Major achievement of these flights was the laying of a new depot at the King Edward VIII Gulf, 170 miles west of Mawson. The aircraft flew 500 gallons of aviation fuel and 1,000 rounds of food and equipment for use in the forthcoming extensive spring operations. On the way to the gulf, the aircraft landed four scientist-explorers in the area of the Law Promontory and Stefannson Bay. Various surveying work was carried out by two of them, a surveyor and geologist. The other pair, biologists, camped on the eastern side of the bay and visited a new penguin rook ery which had previously been sighted only from the air. Although the wintry condi tions grew steadily worse with the approach of June, the ex pedition carried out a flight in that month which checked the sea-ice in the Taylor Glacier re gion. ; The Australians also pushed forward with ground field work. Teams, with dog sledges and weasel motor vehicles, explored the Douglas Islands, the Stanton group and Taylor Glacier region, all within a 60 mile radius of the Mawson base. The most important flying ac tivity of the winter was carried out in August when the RAAF pilots flew over two widely sep arated regions of the Australian claimed sector of the continent. Flights to Cape Anne and Amundsen Bay in Enderby Land, 300 miles to the west re vealed many unmapped moun tain peaks and coastal features. Experienced photo graphers "shot" the area extensively from the air. A flight to the eastern ex tremity, of the Prince Charles Mountains. 300 miles southeast, substantiated a theory of the di rector of Australia's Antarctic activities, Philip G. Law, who ad- j vanced the possibility that a great gulf extended from Prydz Bay, westward to the mountains. Law, a veteran of many years Antarctic exploration, visited the region in 1955. With the coming of the Ant arctic spring, the tempo of ac tivity will pick up. And with the great amount of exploration and research carried out during the winter, Australia should be able to maintain the head start it achieved in 1954 when it es tablished Mawson as the first permanent weather station on the continent. FBI Agent, Posing As Taxicab Driver, Captures Escapee Cincinnati U.R) An FBI a? ent, posing as a taxicab driver, drove an "extremely dangerous" escaped Texas convict as his fare Thursday night until he sighted two other G-men on a busy street corner to help him make the arrest. Ed Mason, the FBI agent in disguise, stalled his taxi fare on the pretense of not having change for the fare. Headlock Assists The fugitive, Robert B. Mir acle, 26, was captured and ar rested when Mason threw a headlock on him and the other two agents stripped him of a .32 caliber revolver and ammunition belt. "I'm a pretty good shot," Mir acle said on his way to jail. "If I could have got to that gun you wouldn't have had a chance." The fugitive also told his cap tors that he would escape again, as he had from the state peni tentiary at Ramsey, Tex., Jul 30. He had served 13 months ol a 20-year to life sentence for robbery.' Stole Automobile Miracle is also wanted by authorities at McConnellsville, Ohio, and at Houston, Tex. The FBI arrested him for "unlawful flight." The FBI said Miracle arrived in town Thursday and stole an automobile. Why he needed a taxi or how Mason lured him into his cab, the FBI would not say. Miracle was positively identi fied by tatttoos on his arm. One read: "Coletta and Robby" while the other was "Mom and Dad." Crash Near Weiser Kills One, Hurts Two Weiser, Ida. !U.R) A two-car head-on crash on Highway 95 three miles south of Weiser yes terday killed one person and seri ously injured two others.
