Graham Surprises
Crowd With Remar!
On Commandments
San Francisco 1? Billy
Graham laid it on the line
Monday night to churchgoers.
He provoked a gasp of sur
prise when he told a near
capacity crowd of 14,00 that
they had each broken every
single one of God's command
ments. "You'll not be condemned
at judgment for today," he
thundered. "You are under
sentence now. That's the rea
son you have not found peace
and happiness."
Graham's crusades are us
ually aimed at those who be
long to no church but who
feel a spiritual emptiness in
their lives. But Monday night
he invited churchgoers to at
tend an "all church night,"
the first night meeting of his
six-week crusade.
150 Church Groups
In the audience were 84
busloads of people, some of
them who came from as far
as Los Angeles to hear the
evangelist's message. There
were 150 different church
groups present.
If they thought they were
going to get off easy because
they go to church, they were
mistaken.
Graham read them the Ten
Commandmants from the 20th
chapter of Exodus. He empha
sized the third, "Thou shalt
not take the name of the Lord
thy God in vain."
"The Commandments are
the law," he said. "When God
gave them to you, he knew
you could not keep them. He
gave them to you as a mirror
to see how far short you were
falling.
"There is not a person in
this room who has not broken
every single Commandment."

A murmur swept through
the audience.
"You are all lawbreakers."
Word for Lawbreaking
He said the Bible has a
three-letter word for law
breaking sin. "You are
separated from God, you peo
ple of the Bay Area," he said.
"You ask, how can I be
forgiven my sins by good
work- No, you can do good
work all your life, but that
will not save your soul, unless
you repent."
Earlier, Graham noted that
there were about 2.000 empty
seats in the Cow Palace. On
Sunday, every seat was filled
and there were about 2,500
standees.
But he called Monday
night's turnout "encourag
ing." "After Sunday, people got
the idea they couldn't get
here without getting into six
miles of traffic jams," he
said.
The California Highway Pa
trol reported that traffic mov
ed smoothly and there were
no delays. ,
Klamath Delays
Pinball Action
Klamath Falls UP) An
injunction delaying a crack
down on free play pinball ma
chines in Klamath county
was granted Monday by Cir
cuit Judge David R. Vanden
berg. The crackdown has been
ordered in early April by Dis
trict Attorney Richard Bees
ley on grounds that the at
torney general had ruled that
such machines were illegal.
A request was filed immed
iately for a restraining order
by attorneys representing pin
ball operators.
Klamath Falls City Attorn
ey Henry Perkins appeared
in court and spoke in favor
of the restraining order. He
said the crackdown would
place the city in an ambigu
ous position. He said city po
lice are obligated to cooperate
with the district attorney and
that the city would be sub
ject to possible damages if
the machines had been picked
up and then found to be legal
by the State Supreme Court.

READY FOR HALLOWEEN Sheriff Merritt R. McBride,
of Elkton, Mich., models spaceman's uniform designed by
three youths and used by them to scare the wits out of motor
ists. One of the three youths would don the outfit and stand
by the side of the road until a passing motorist would see
the weird costume and take off for parts unknown. If the
motorist was brave enough to investigate, he would find no
one on the road as the boys left the scene in another car. The
ensemble included luminous blue hip boots (not shown) and
long underwear painted the same color. The football helmet
has flashing lights and the gloves and cape also glowed.
Sheriff McBride confiscated the outfit and sent" the boys
home with a warning.
State Aeronautics
oard Charges CAP
In
Portland (IP) The State
Board of Aeronautics charged
the Civil Air Patrol Monday
with hindering the search for
Mrs. Bruce Davis of Fresno,
Calif., last week through in
discriminate broadcasting of
rumors.
Earl Snyder, director of the
State Aeronautics Board, said
at Salem that once, CAP ra
dioed the mission was com
pleted when in fact trie air
force helicopter (that rescued
Mrs. Davis) had only arrived
at the scene of the operation."
He also charged that conduct
of the CAP slowed down the
rescue of the woman who
spent three days and three
nights in the wilds of central
Oregon while her husband
went for help.
CAP 'Shocked'
Major Stanley Sharp, Ore

bers of the CAP were "shock-

ed." He said he could categori
cally deny the charges.
"Our members are so shock
ed at these false accusations
from a state official that we
demand a complete investiga
tion of these charges," he said.
Sharp also called on the State
Board of Aeronautics to pro
duce evidence to substantiate
the charges.
A CAP spokesman said that
in past years the CAP and
state have disagreed on search
techniques.
Still in Hospital
The Davises' Cessna crash
ed eight days ago in eastern
Oregon during a flight from
Fresno to Spokane to visit rel
atives. Mrs. Davis suffered a
pelvis fracture and severe
frostbite in her hands lower
legs and feet. Both Davis, an
orchestra leader, and his wife
remained in a John Day Gen
eral hospital. Davis said it
would be "several weeks" be
fore they could return to Cali
fornia. Florida Officials
Press Probe of
Bomb Incidents
Jacksonville, Fla. (IP)
Angry state officials pressed
today for use of the "full
force" of state investigative
agencies in an effort to solve
terrorist bombings of a Jewish
installation and a Negro
school.
There was similar reaction
in Birmingham, Ala., to Mon
day's abortive attempt to blow
up a synagogue.
Staff Offered
Florida Gov. Leroy Collins
Monday offered to local au
thorities the assistance of his
personal investigator and the
staff of the state sheriff's bu
reau if needed "to bring the
guilty hoodlums to justice."
Thunderous explosions, only
three to four minutes apart,
damaged an auditorium sec
tion of the Jacksonville Jew
ish Center and a Negro junior
high school about four miles
away shortly after midnight
Monday.
Shortly before noon Mon
day, a Negro janitor found
54 sticks of dynamite in a
window well at Temple Beth
El Synagogue in Birmingham.
Police said rain apparently ex
tinguished .the fuse of the
charge shortly after it had
been lighted.
Plea Made for Law
Police Commissioner Eu
gene Conner of Birmingham
issued a plea that the next
Legislature enact a law calling
for the death penalty for any
one convicted of dynamiting
"any house, school or church."
Bill Lyerly, director of the
Alabama Highway Patrol, of
fered on behalf of Gov. James
E. Folsom a $2,000 reward for
information leading to convic
tion of the person or persons
who placed the bomb.
Hatfield, Gill
Clash on Issue
Of Sales Tax
Portland (IP Secretary of
State Mark Hatfield and
State Sen. Warren Gill, two
candidates for the Republican
nomination for governor,
clashed on the sales tax issue
here Monday.
They appeared at a Repub
lican gathering along with
Orval Rasor, a third candi
date, and Mrs. Sig Unander,
wife of the state treasurer
who also is a candidate.
Unander was unable to at
tend because of prior com
mitments. Hatfield said advocacy of
a sales tax represents "offer
ing a sales tax as a panacea
for all tax evils."
What Good?
Hatfield said that although
taxes were too high "what
good do you do if you elimin
ate one tax and slip in an
other one that you'll collect
a few pennies at a time?"
Real tax reduction, he said,
will only follow reduction of
expenditures.
Gill said a three per cent
sales tax with groceries,
medicine, farm supplies and
services exempt, would bring
in about 70 million dollars a
year. He said he had found
the sales tax idea popular
among both Republicans and
Democrats in his travels over
the state.
Gill Critical ,
Hatfield also scored pri
mary campaign tactics which
he said might help defeat the
Republican winner in Novem
ber. Gill has been critical of
both Hatfield and Unander.
Rasor blamed "southern
senators" for withholding
funds for access road con
struction in Oregon.
Mrs. Unander said she and
her husband have been en
couraged because of a "dis
tinct upturn in political in
terest among voters" which
she termed different "from
when we started campaign
ing in January."
Head-on Collision
Of Planes Told
Las Vegas (IP) Prelimin
ary findings by the Civil
Aeronautics Board have con
firmed that a F-100 jet and a
United Air Lines DC7 col
lided almost head-on over the
Nevada desert a week ago.
It was believed at first that
the jet went out of control
and plunged straight down
onto the New York - bound
luxury liner. Forty nine per
sons were killed in the crash.
Phil Goldstein, head CAB
investigator on the scene,
said Monday the right wing
of the Super Sabre jet sliced
through the airliner wing
like a giant knife, severing
about an eight-foot section of
the tip.
The investigation will con
tinue to determine the exact
angle of impact, Goldstein
said. However, early findings
indicate the jet was below
rather than above the air
liner and veering away from
it when the leading edges of
the wings collided.,
The CAB's official findings
will be presented at a pub
lic hearing here when the
study has been completed,
within two to five weeks.
Station Operator
Beaten by Thugs
Portland (IP) A' service
station operator who was
robbed and beaten by several
men on March 8 was robbed
and beaten by three or four
men again Monday night, po
lice reported.
Ed Law, who operates a sta
tion on NE Sandy blvd., told
police he fired three shots at
his assailants as they fled and
might have wounded one. He
was hospitalized with unde
termined injurie's. Police said
his clothing appeared to have
been slashed with a knife.
The till and safe at the sta
tion both were emptied. On
March 8 five men invaded his
station and robbed it, leaving
Law with a head injury and a
knif e wound in the abdomen.
Law said three or four men
assaulted him Monday night.
Portlanders Organize
Fun-Making Group
Portland (IP) The nation
has a new fun-making organ
ization. Now available for
publicity - making horseplay
are the Portland Rainmakers
who aim to promote, publicize
and duly honor "the most out
standing and beneficial asset"
of the City of Portland
namely its rainy weather. ,
The Rainmakers, limited to
a membership of 50 promi
nent Portlanders, will be
marked by red Tyrolean hats,
green ties, and green and
white umbrellas. Members
will be known as rain drops
and they'll hand out bottles of
180 drops of rain water to
visitors to the city.
Is That So?
No mineral is more preci
ous than salt it is essential
to life and it is certainly one
of the commonest.
Historially, it was consider
erd so important the Romans
named a vital highway for
it, the Via Salaria. Also, our
word salary comes from sal-
arium, salt money or part of
a Roman solider's pay.
Animals are so attracted to
it that if you want to photo
graph them, just set up a rock
salt lick. It attracts anything
from a moose down. But
check you state's laws first.
It may be illegal.
In the oceans, the average
of salt is about one pound
to" four gallons of water, but
the salt content varies. In
the polar regions sea water
is least salty because of scanty
evaporation and dilution by
rivers. The Sargasso area of
the Atlantic is the saltiest
part of the oceans because of
intense evaporation and little
influx of fresh water. For
example, the saline content
off the Florida coast is 10
per cent greater than off Cape
Cod.
But despite the immense
salt content of the seas, it is
profitable to mine it from the
land. North American salt
beds have been found with a
thickness of several hundred
to 2,000 feet.
.Salt has tremendous indus
trial value as well as nutri
tional. It is needed for manu
facture of glass, pottery, soap
to name a few things.
As for its use at table, it
was considered so important
it determined seating arrange
ments. "To eat above the salt"
meant to sit with the honor
ed guests. In the old days a
huge salt cellar was put in
the middle of the table. "To
sit below the salt" meant to
sit at the end with those Jess
honored.
