President Eisenhower was ex
pected to give further assurance
Girard will get a fair trial from
Japan, with every protection for
his rights his government can
provide.
Tuesday's decision to turn the
Army Specialist 3-c over to the
Japanese courts touched off a
storm of protest in this country.
Parachute Jumps
For Smokejumpers
To Start Thursday
Cave Junction First train
ing parachute jumps for smoke
jumpers at the Siskiyou Aerial
project will be Thursday and
Friday of this week about 8
a.m. at Seat's field near the
Redwood highway.
A total of 13 returnees will
start their week's refresher
course June 6 and 7, and will
be ready for fire calls by June
17. Thirty new men and four
more experienced men will
check in at the project. Then,
first call of the season came last
week from Six Rivers National
Forest, but no jumpers were av
ailable from this district.
New Project
The new aerial project at Red
ding will draw three local
smokejumpers as squadleaders ,
for the 24 men who will be sta
tioned there under Fred Bar
nowsky, foreman. Phil Clark
will leave for Redding June 14, ;
and Orville Looper will move
to his new location July 17. j
Both have been year around 1
squad leaders here for several
years. Warren Webb, a summer i
man. will also go to Redding as !
the third leader.
Training Plans
All of the Redding crew, in
cluding Barnowsky, who is now
at the Siskiyou aerial project,
will receive specialized smoke
jumper training here. Accordi
ng to James Allen, foreman of
the local project, 53 men will j
be trained at the Illinois Val
ley airport, but only 28 will re
main here as the Siskiyou dis
trict summer crew. j
From June 17, when the new
men start to arrive, until late j
July, practice jumps from the
new steel tower and training
jumps from the U. S. Forest ser
vice plane, piloted by Ed Scholtz
will go on almost continuously.
Meanwhile the previously train
ed men will be on call for fire 1
duty in remote areas that can
only be reached by jumpers.
Investigations were ordered in
both House and Senate. A two
man Senate armed services sub
committee called defense offi
cials to explain behind closed
doors today. Sen. Ralph E. Flan
ders (R-Vt.). one of the members,
called the Girard decision "out
rageous." He told a reporter a
very serious error" was made
in the Pentagon "and we want
to see who actually made it."
Earlier Decision Confirmed
The announcement of the final
U. S. decision said an earlier
agreement to turn Girard over
to Japan had been "authorized"
and this country could not re
voke its agreement now. It did
not say who authorized the ear
lier move.
Military officials pointed out
that under Girard's indictment
by the Japanese for causing
death by wounding the most
lenient homicide charge in the
Japanese criminal code Girard
would be liable to a sentence of
2-15 years in prison.
They said a U. S. court-martial
sentence would be three
years. They were not clear
whether this would be the mini
mum sentence that could be im
posed, and indicated the possible
penally might be higher.
Vehicle Travel
In Oregon Declines
Salem W A li per cent
travel so far this year was re
ported today by the Oregon
Traffic Safety commission.
Latest month to show a drop
was April when travel fell off
about 12 million miles from that
recorded for April a year ago.
So far this year, January has
been the only month to show
an increase in total motor veh
icle mileage.
The rather low travel figure
for April of 589,990,150 miles
was matched by a drop in traf
fic deaths with 31 reported for
that month. The state's death
rate was 5.3 persons killed in
each 100 million miles of travel.
This compared with a 6.5 death
rate for April in 1956.
