Robert A. Johnson
Named Chairman of
'57-'58 UMC Drive
Robert A. Johnson. 20 Valley
View drive, Medford, has ac
cepted the appointment of gen
eral campaign chairman for the
appointment of general cam
paign chairman for the 1957-58
United Medford Crusade. Wil
liam H. Prentice, UMC presi
dent, announced today.
Johnson is manager of the lo
cal General Electric company
saies office in the Goldy build
jng. He was ctiairman of the
commercial division in the re
cent UMC campaign. The divis
ion quota was exceeded by more
than $1,800.
Johnson, who moved to Med
ford 18 months ago, was born
in Seattle, and graduated from
the University of Washington in
1943. 1ft served as a lieutenant
in the Navy on submarines and
heavy cruisers for three years
during World War II. He began
employment with General Elec
tric in Schenectady, N.Y., in
1946.
Planning (o Start
Johnson said he will start or
ganizational planning work im
mediately by appointing an assis
fant chairman, and campaign
committee to wdrk out general
plans for next fall's campaign.
He said an early start will help
ensure a successful campaign
and should" shorten the campaign
season considerably.
Members of the UMC board
have expressed an opinion fav
oring a shorter campaign sea
son, according to Prentice, who
added that this is the earliest
date that a UMC campaign
chairman has been named.
The 1956 UMC campaign re
cently exceeded its goal of $117,
175 by about $1,000.

Satellites Must
Be Independent,
Secretary Says
Washington (U.R) Secretary
of State John Foster Dulles said
today a review of the Western
powers' military security ar
rangements in Europe might be
justified if Russia's satellites
ever become genuinely inde
pendent of Moscow domination.
But he warned, at his first
Washington news conference
since his cancer operation, that
the United States and its free
allies must not reduce their de
fensive power now.
His guarded remarks appear
ed to be a hint that the West
might be willing to negotiate
with Russia for a possible mu
tual drawback of armed forces
provided the Kremlin would
pull the Soviet Army out of
Eastern European countries like
Hungary. But Dulles did not
spell out the implied overture
in detail.
Dulles suggested that Russia
has a self-interest motive for
considering some new arrange
ment of the satellites.
He said that the recent unrest
in the satellites makes it impos
sible for Russia any longer to
count on some 60 satellite divi
sions to help the Red Army in
case of a war. On the contrary,
he said, it now appears that the
satellite forces might even be
shooting in the other direction,
that is at Russia.
Dulles emphasized that the
United States seeks peace and
does not want to resume the
cold war. He blamed Russia for
increased world tensions which
have come about since last year's
Geneva summit meeting.
He said Russia has made
every effort to stir up trouble
in the Middle East and has tried
to obstruct any settlement of the
Suez Canal dispute.
Unfriendly Atlitud
Dulles also said the Soviet
Union is responsible for the
tragic events in Hunzary. And
he charged that the Soviet Un
ion tore up the Geneva agree
ment to reunify Germany.
All of these developments, he
said, make it look as though the
Soviet Union is not anxious for
friendly relations with the Free
World.
Dulles said that with the inter
national picture as it now is, the
United Slates has no plan to
reduce its military strength in
Europe. He said there probably
will be some streamlining of
U.S. forces there, however, to
make them more mobile.

Egyptian Police
Enter Port Said
To Aid UN Force
City Rapidly
Approaching Normal
Port Said (U.R) A detach
ment of 350 Egyptian police
moved into this trigger-happy
city of 178,000 today to help
hard-pressed United Nations po
licemen keep order.
The city was rapidly approach
ing normalcy as more and more
British troops moved out. Some
shops were open and Egyptian
flags and pictures of President
Carnal Abdel Nasser blossomed
out in the city.
One unit of 1,000 French For
eign Legionnaires boarded ships
for immediate withdrawal while
British troops withdrew inside
a barbed wire perimeter around
the European and port sections
of the city.
A Legionnaire officer was
shot and killed by Egyptian
troops during the night while
on his last patrol. He was the
first Frenchman to be killed
since -occupation of the city.
A Danish patrol of the Unit
ed Nations Emergency Force
(UNEF) was fired on during
darkness Monday night, but
there were no casualties. It was
the second time U.N. forces have
been fired on in two days.
The date of the final Anglo
French evacuation remained a
secret, but the best guess was
Friday or Saturday.
Britain and France Monday
night extended for three days
their deadline for removal of
their salvage ships pending
Egyptian acceptance of their use
with Anglo-French crews.
The Anglo - French salvage
fleet continued its work of clear
ing the harbor despite occasion
al sniper fire from the shore.
The fleet raised one blockship
Monday and was working on
another.
Marshfield High Gets
$10,000 'Compensation'

high school at Coos Bay has the
kind of supporter most high
schools only dream about. Reidar
Bugge, a retired Coos Bay bank
er, has sent the school a check
of $10,000 to compensate for the
"joy and pleasure" he has re
ceived from attending school
sports events and to support the
school drama department.

Communist government an
nounced today it had arrested
nearly 400 "rebels and crimin
als" in the past 24 hours in a
new attempt to stamp out "counter-revolutionaries."
Mass trials
were expected to follow.
At the same time there were
reports in government offices
that the government may be re
shuffled. Informed sources said
talks between Premier Janos
Kadar and non-Communist party
leaders were expected to be op
ened before Christmas.
Politicians named as possible
candidates included three "Tito

Lukacs and Zoltan Vas. Another

OREGON, TUESDAY, DECEMBER 1956 No. 231
'Criminals'
Hungary
j munist and leader of the Free-
holders Party who was jailed
by the Soviets in 1947.
Arrest of 400 "rebels and
criminals" was announced by ra
dio Budapest. The "criminals"
were believed to be political
prisoners held by the pre-revo-lutionary
"Stalinist" regime and
released by rebel forces.
The imprisoned anti-Communists
were freed when freedom
fighters opened the gates xif the
AVH (secret police) prisons all
over the country. Most of them
were believed to have joined the
rebel forces and withdrawn to
the mountains after the Russian
onslaught on Budapest Nov. 4.
Reports of increased partisan
activity in the area of Miskolc,
80 miles northeast of Budapest,
reached Vienna over the week
end.
Budapest radio said most of
the arrested men have been
charged with "illegal possession
of arms," an indication that the
new wave of arrests will be fol
lowed by mass trials before spec
ial military tribunals. The mil
itary tribunals were set up in
a declaration of martial law pro
claiming death to anti-government
forces.
