Japan Elects New Premier Tokyo (U.R) Outspoken, 72-year-old economist Tanzan Ishi bashi was elected overwhelming ly as Japan's new premier today, succeeding partially -paralyzed Ichioro Hatoyama. The legislature elected Ishi bashi, the international trade and industry minister, by a margin of 291 to 150. The retiring premier stepped down with the regret at "my strength was not enough" to achieve world peace and free dom. v Hatoyama resigned with his entire cabinet to permit Ishi bashi's election, which was only a formality. Ishibashi was elect ed president of the ruling Liberal-Democratic Party last Fri day, making his selection as pre mier almost automatic. Hatoyama served almost exact ly two years in office, during which Japan signed World War II reparations agreements with the Philippines and Burma, and reached a peace accord with Rus sia and gained admittance to the United Nations. Ishibashi has been a sharp critic of U. S. occupation "re forms," but his election as pre mier was expected to have little effect on Japan's basic policies of siding with U.S. views on" most international matters. Judge Asks D. A. To Produce Documents Hillsboro (U.R) Washington County Judge Harry M. Seabold, under grand jury indictment on a bribery charge, yesterday filed a motion asking that all docu ments that were subpoenaed be fore the grand Jury be produced by the district attorney.

Judge Sea bold contended in his motion that he would be deprived of a fair and impartial trial unless the documents were made available for inspection and copying. A counter motion filed by Dis trict Attorney James K. Gardner asking that Judge Seabold be re quired to produce both his per sonal and partnership income tax returns for 1954 and 1955, was denied. WRECK UPS VALUE St. Joseph, Mich.-U.R) The Berrien county sheriff's office planned to sell car No. 29 to a dealer for $977. But No. 29 was wrecked in a crash before it was sold.

(U.R) Mrs. Irene Pierce, 23, returns on a "surprise" flight today to New York and the three children she abandoned in Grand Central Sta tion because she could not af ford Christmas presents for them. Jacksonville Mayor Haydon Burns announced Wednesday night arrangements had been made for the young mother to re turn to New York and be turned over to welfare officials who have cared for the children since she left them in the crowded ter minal Friday. But Burns said she was not to be told about the "surprise" trip tack to her family until this morning. Her plane is scheduled to leave late this-afternoon. She said she left Victor, 5, San dra. 3, and James, three months, in the station, expecting them to be taken in by the Welfare De partment, because she could not buy them any Christmas pres ents with her $20 a week meal ticket. She was living in a Wa terbury. Conn., relief project and receiving food money from the city. Burns took a ."personal inter est" in the case. And he said hundreds of offers came in from all over the country of gifts, a home for the children and plane fare home for Mrs. Pierce. TWO FIRE CREWS San Pedro, Calif.

(International Sovmdphoto) James Madison's Papers To Be Collected, Published Chicago (U.R) The widely scattered personal papers of James Madison, the nation's fourth president, will be collect ed and published ia their entir ety for the first time through the cooperative efforts of the Uni versities of Virginia and Chi cago. The publication' will close the last gap in the basic historical sources of the nation's founding fathers. The documents of George Wasington, Thomas Jeff erson, John Adams, Benjamin Franklin and Alexander Hamil ton already have been published or are in work. The work on Madison's papers will require about 12 years. They will be published by the Univer sity of Chicago Press at a rate of about two volumes a year, be ginning in 1960. The papers will require about 22 large volumes. All of Madison's papers, which have survived a curious history, have been documented. Soma Were Lost Shortly after his death. Con gress appropriated $30,000 to buy the "Notes of Debates in the Federal Convention of 1787" and a collection of letters relat ing to the Continental Congress from his widow, Dolly Madison. Congress later authorized pay ment of $25,000 for the larger remainder of the collection, set ting up a trust fund so that Mrs. Madison's wayward son, John Payne Todd, could not gamble the money away. However, before possession was obtained, Todd sold a thou sand of the letters to John C. McGuire, who edited selections from Madison's papers. This segment of papers re mained in the McGuire family until 1892 when it was purchased by Marshall Field, Chicago mer chant. Field presented the papers to the Chicago Historical Soci ety where they remained until 1910 when they were turned over to the Library of Congress. The Library of Congress in 1935 retrieved a large segment of the papers which Congress originally had purchased but which later were lost. To Cost $400,000 Sen. William Cabell Rives of Virginia had borrowed the en tire collection from the library to write a "Life and Times of James Madison," which he failed to complete. He returned some of the material to the library, but hundreds of items later were found in a trunk mixed with Rives' own papers. Other collections of Madi son's papers are at the Univer sity of Virginia, the Virginia State Library, the New York Public Library and in historical societies of several states. Publication of these papers in one uniform work will make available for the first time the full record of Madison's contri butions to the nation. He has been described as "the architect of the Constitution and the Bill of Rights." The job of editing and pub lishing the more than 12,000 Madison papers will cost about $400,000, with most of the cost borne by grants from the Ford and the Rockefeller Foundations. Worker Released From Sewer Ditch Portland (U.R) A 59-year-old Portland construction workman battled for his life from the bot tom of a caved-in sewer ditch for more than three hours yes terday before fellow workmen finally freed him. Alex W. Moes, completely buried by the sudden cave-in, walked away from the scene and commented, "Gosh, you'd think there was something wrong with me. All this fuss!" An air porcket, formed by the crashing timbers, remained I around the buried man's head, keeping him alive until work men could get the top layers of the loose earth pushed aside. Doctors, taking no chance, rushed Moes to a Portland hos pital for a complete checkup ' after his ordeal. A preliminary! examination indicated that he 't had suffered no serious injury. The cave-in occurred on a sew- j er construction job in south- j west Portland while workmen j were placing shoring timbers in I the excavation. Blackbirds Cut Off Neighborhood Gossip Winner, S. D. (U.R) The rural telephone service south of Winner was literally for the birds. The women of the neighbor hood were strongly annoyed by the constant telephone troubles. Their conversations would be suddenly cut off. Investigation discovered that blackbirds were perching on the wires by the hundreds. Their combined weight was sometimes just enough to bring a top wire into contact with a lower one. As a result, the wires, and the latest bit of neighborhood gos sip, were shorted.
