Planned by Stassen Hold Californian Following Burglary Of Medfcrd House A Compton, Calif, man is be ing held in Grants Pass by state police in connection with a burglary Saturday afternoon of Items valued at S320 from a residence near Medford. Police identified the suspect at Windell Glenn Tabor. 35, who was arrested in Grants Pass several hours after the burglary on charges of reckless driving. Several of the Items taken from th residence were found in his possession, they reported. He alsj is being held on the basis of a description of the burglar, police said, supplied by a resident of the entered house, John Cannon. Cannon, who dis covered the burglary, told of ficers he spotted a man walking across the yard as he returned home, but that he thought noth ing of it at th time. The residence, located at route 1, box 351, South Stage rd., several miles from Medford, Is owned by AI Grief. Police said the house was ran sacked and articles belonging to both Cannon and Grief were taken. It was entered by forc ing open two doors at the rear of the residence. Tabor has not admitted the breaking into the residence, po lice reported. clear weapons tests. Informed sources said Presi dent Eisenhower worked out de tails of the plans with Stassen as part of a "first step" disarm ament agreement. Disarmament talks presently are going on in London. There have been reports that U. S. proposals also would in clude a suggestion that both countries agree to notify the other of any large-scale move ments of troops. The sources said they believe Stassen s nuclear weapons plan was a refinement of the propos al made by Eisenhower and Brit ish Prime Minister Harold Mac- millan at their Bermuda confer ence in March. At the time, the two leaders proposed that Russia and the West exchange observers at all future atomic weapons tests. American officials have been in the past opposed to any ban on testing of hydrogen or atomic weapons until the Russians agreed to a mutual observation program. There was no indicattlon just what test restrictions or limita tions Stassen will propose. But there were signs he is ready to propose a new nuclear weapons plan In order to test the "good faith" of the Soviet negotiators. The Idea of an omnipotent fate over-ruling all affairs of men is present in various forms in practicaly all religious systems. Bumper Strawberry Crop Seen; Pickers Needed Portland W Northwest strawberry growers have a bum per crop this year, they say but they also have a shortage of la bor and a depressed market. Next Monday, growers in the St. Helens and Gresham areas will need several hundred straw berry pickers, and unless local residents respond, the demand for labor will not be met, said Blaine Christian, state employ ment service farm labor super visor for the Portland area. The device was dropped from a white-painted RAF Vajiint jet bomber at an altitude estimated at some 45.000 feet between Christmas and Maiden Islands. Squadron Leader David Rob erts. 33. the pilot, dropped the bomb in a complex corkscrew maneuver that set it spinning into space like a pitcher's curved ball while the four-jet bomber raced to safety. "Bomb gone," radioed Flight Lt. Kenneth Lewis, 33, the bom bardier. A few seconds later, a tremendous glare washed out the sun above the test area. White light bore through the protective goggles of observers standing with their backs to the blast on the ships 35 miles away. Observers had been warned not to look at the blast for 15 sec onds. Some 50 seconds after the "bomb gone" announcement cracked through the radio re ceivers, the Shockwave brought the rumbling crash of a thou sand thunderclaps to the obser vers on the six-ship task force standing 35 miles away. The ships rocked gently. A huge multi-colored fireball hung high in the sky changing colon as it swelled, yellow, red, orange, pink. A giant swirling stem reached up from the sea to form the familiar mushroom of the atomic explosion. Within seconds after the blast, Canberra twin-jet bombers roar ed in to sample the fall-out to tell scientists how efficient this bomb was. Althonph the rloud of radio- tne United j acjjve decaying fission products was to pass 60 miles south of Medford at 5 a.m. Friday, no communication was received from the atomic energy com mission. Maj. Gen. J. H. Hicks, Jackson county civil defense ad ministrator, said radiological monitors in the county reported no unusual findings. The cloud, which drifted at an altitude of 20.000 feet, was said to be in the general area at which several commercial airliners were scheduled to pass Friday morning between the Pa cific Northwest and California. Course Reported Its course was across Harney, Lake and Klamath counties, south of Medford. and on toward the California coast. Yesterday it was reported headed back to Las Vegas after passing out to sea north of San Francisco. The chief radiological safety officer of the Nevada testing area, Oliver Placak, discflssed the possible danger of the fall out of strontium 90 among the more than 150 elements released in the blast. He was quoted as saying he was not prepared to give an opinion on the possible danger ous effects of strontium 90. Scientists at the California In stitute of Technology are said to have found that any" fallout of the element may increase the world-wide incidence of leukemia, an incurable disease affecting the bones and glands. Another authority has said that the heaviest fallout on earth occurs in the United States. The entire western half, he ex plained, except for the Pacific coast, is covered with alkali soil J Nk i -V- ' - - . 6 , - '5 , .k -. ft : 1 i h -: ; A y ; ? . r , , - " . -f, -d wMgy " v Scientist Skeptical About Radar Death Los Angeles V A UCLA biophysicist says he is inclined to be "highly skeptical" of a re port published in a medical journal that radar radiation caused the death of an electron ics technician. Dr. Albert Bellamy, head of the biophysics department at UCLA, suggested Friday the pos sibility of "complicating factors" in the fatality of the victim, whose name was witheld in the journal report. Bellamy said he and associates at Massachusetts Institute of Technology worked with high frequency radiations for two or three minutes at a time and ex perienced a "warm" sensation but no burning or any after effects. The report of the death, which appeared in the publication Cali fornia Medicine, was part of an article authored by Dr. John T. McLaughlin, of Glendale, Calif. McLaughlin said that an autopsy on the victim concluded death was due to "cooking" of his in ternal organs by the ray. To Treat GerMsns With Hypertension Bonn, Germany U" High pressure businessmen suffering from "manager's disease" are be ing treated successfully by sleep ing it off for three weeks, the Bonn government's official bul letin reported Saturday. "Manager's disease," tJp) fill er among West Germany's big business-, tycoons, is marked by hypertension, exhaustion, loss of memory and appetite, and some times death. 'Sleep Cures' The government bulletin said a clinic at Berchtesgaden in the Bavarian Alps reported "encour aging" results from its first 767 "sleep cures." Under this cure the exhausted manager is put to sleep by a preliminary injection and kept asleep a few days under reduced body temperature, the bulletin said. After a preliminary trial per iod he is allowed to awaken and is kept four or five days in an unlighted room on a low diet. He sleeps between snacks. Weil-Being Returns At the end of the first five days he feels "irritable and crushed," the bulletin reported. "But soon his feeling of well being returns." The treatment is renewed for a second and possibly third week. The bulletin said the treat ment was successful in 90 per cent of cases. It said it also had good results for sufferers from stomach ulcers, hypertension, neuralgia and bronchitis. It said a few alcoholics id narcotic ad dicts also were cured by the sleep treatment.
