WESTERN
TO GIVE DA
Dixon and Lodge
Confer With U.N.
Secretary on Plan
To Be Submitted
To Assembly Monday
United Nations, N. Y. (UPD
Britain and the United
States yesterday helped ham
mer into shape a Western
proposal to turn the Middle
East political turmoil over to
U.N. Secretary-General Dag
Hammarskjold.
The Americans, meanwhile
were reported preparing to
pull another battalion of Ma
rines out of Lebanon.
Britain's Sir Pierson Dixon
and Ambassador Henry Cabot
Lodge of the United States
carried on the negotiations as
their two chiefs, Secretary of
State John Foster Dulles and
Foreign Secretary Selwyn
Lloyd left, the city for brief
week-end respites from the
emergency assembly debate
cn the Middle East crisis. The
U.N. session will be resumed
Monday morning.
Lodge and Dixon conferred
at U.N. Headquarters with
Hammarskjold and Norweg
ian Deputy Foreign Minister
Hans Engen. The Norwegian
is the author of a resolution
which would have the As
- sembly instruct Hammarsk
jold to take urgent steps to
safeguard the independence
and political integrity of Leb
anon and Jordan and permit
the United States and Britain
to with draw their military
forces. , ,
Engen said his resolution
would be filed with the U.N.
secretariat today and prob
ably would be made public at
that time. It -will be intro
duced formally in the General
Assembly Monday, he said,
with eight or 10 co-sponsors.
American sources said they
still were consulting ' officials
of other countries and there
might be more co-sponsors
by the time the resolution is
handed in.
Nothing in the resolution
sets forth definite dates for
the withdrawal of troops
from Lebanon or Jordan, it
was learned.
Lodge said after the con
ference, "we are really mov
ing along." He predicted that
the watered-down Norwegian
formula would secure wide
spread assembly , backing
when it finally comes to a
vote.
It was expected to go be
fore the assembly for action
on Monday or Tuesday.
An Arab League official
said after a conference with
Hammarskjold that the Nor
wegian resolution was "still
oper to discussion." The Arab
League spokesman reaffirm
ed the Arab view that the
"main thing" is to get these
"Anglo-American" forces to
withdraw from Jordan and
Lebanon.
Plaque to Mark
Railroad Depot
The Siskiyou Pioneer Sites
Foundation will dedicate a
plaque to commemorate the
Rogue River Valley railroad
next Saturday.
A bronze plaque will mark
the site of the old Medford
depot, and will be unveiled
at the Crater Lake Motors
building. . Following that for
mal dedication exercises will
be held in the city park near
the Medford Public library.
Dr. Frank Haines of South
ern Oregon college will give
the history of the railroad,
and Albert Gandt, Medford,
president of 'the Foundation,
will discuss the aims and pur
poses of the Foundation.
The Rogue River Valley
railroad, known as the "Jack
sonville Cannonball," was
built in 1891 to connect Med
ford and Jacksonville. It op
erated for 35 years, and was
an important pioneer enter
prise. Siskiyou Pioneer Sites
Foundation was incorporated
in 1957 as a non-profit cor
poration to mark and pre
serve the historic buildings
and sites of southern Oregon.
The plaque to be unveiled
marks the first step in the
campaign of the society to
preserve the pioneer heritage.

Truman Backs Ike,

The General Assembly of
the United Nations, now in
emergency session, is faced
with the most critical de
cision affecting the peace of
the world since the founding
of the United Nations. I feel
that the very survival of, the
United Nations as an instru-
ment of peace may well be
determined by the actions
taken by the 81 nations of the
Assembly.
It was heartening to see
President Eisenhower appear
in person before the General
Assembly to make the Ameri
can position clear. The sound
proposals madeby the Presi
dent offered a realistic ap
proach, and I hope that the
Assembly will act- with the
speed called for by the situa
tion. Point of Danger
World tensions and rival
ries have reached a point of
danger where certain powers
must prove their intentions
for peace or war before this
Assembly which expresses
the views and perhaps the
conscience of mankind. This
should be no time for name-
Library to Close
For Wall Repairs
The Medford Public libra
ry, headquarters of the Jack
son County library, will be
closed from Sept. 1 through
14 while extensive repairs to
the building are being made,
it has been announced.
Replastering of the south
and west walls in the adult
and junior, reading rooms and
in a number of offices will be
completed during the closure.
Library officials noted that
expediency requires closure
because it will be necessary
to remove books and shelves
during the repair work.
Patrons will be permitted
to check out a double allow
ance of books before the clos
ure, however, and the books
will be loaned for longer per
iods than is usual so that none
will become due while the
building is closed, officials
said.
Jackson county readers are
also reminded by the library
staff that they may borrow
books from any of the branch
agencies. These include libra
ries at Jacksonville, Central
Point, Phoenix, Tatent, Eagle
Point, Gold Hill, Butte Falls,
Tabe Rock, and Shady Cove.
Borrowers' cards issued by
any of the above libraries are
good at all of the rest includ
ing the Medford Public libra
ry, officials reminded.
Books must be returned to
the agency from which, they
are borrowed, however, they
cautioned.
In addition to permitting
building repairs the closure
will make it possible for a
number of the employees to
take their annual vacation, it
was noted.
Good Re-Stocking of Fish
Streams Would Make Big
A good re-stocking of fish
in streams and rivers in the
valley would be one of the
best attractions that the area
could offer tourists during the
centennial year, according to
Neal Smith, Gold Hill Centen
nial chairman.
Neal included this senti
ment in his inventory of the
resources of his area, submit
ted to Jackson County Cen
tennial Chairman Ernie Hood
last week.
. He said that many people
he has contacted feel that vis
itors coming here next year
will remember the Rogue val
ley much longer if they catch
a good rainbow trout than
they will if the tour all the
EE
calling, recrimination and
propaganda contests by any
nation that genuinely wants
to make this body an effec
tive force to prevent war.
I think it is fortunate that
the situation in the Middle
East is being considered by
the United Nations General
Assembly rather than by the
major powers at a so-called
summit meeting.
Meetings at the summit, in
my judgment, belong to the
past, because they constitute
the assumed right of a few
nations ' to tell smaller and
weaker nations what to do.
Trie only legitimate reason
for any such meeting in the
future would be to carry out
the decisions and mandates of
the United Nations.

Restraining Order
Issued to Prevent
Names on Ballot
A temporary restraining
order to prevent placing of
any name on the November
ballot for district court judge
was issued Friday by Edward
C. Kelly, circuit court judge.
The order came in response
to a request by James A. Red
den, whb- represents E. Roy
Bashaw, candidate for the
nomination and present Med
ford city attorney.
Named as defendant is
Bereth B. Hopkins, county
clerk. By terms of the order,
she is to appear Aug. 22 to
show cause why she should
not place the name of Robert
G. Danielson, the other cand
idate, or any other name on
the ballot.
Declaratory Judgment
Redden's request was made
in connection with a declara
tory judgment in Bashaw's
behalf which seeks to disqual
ify Danielson from the nom
ination. Danielson polled
more votes in the May pri
mary, but has been charged
with not having been eligible
at the time of the election.
Mrs. Hopkins was instruct
ed by the attorney general
last month to issue a certifi
cate of nomination to Daniel
son, but suits- entered since
then have stayed that action.
Redden stated Friday that
he hoped to receive an appear
ance from Danielson this
week end. The appearance is
due Tuesday. He said Aug.
22 has been set as trial date
for the other suit brought
against Danielson by Richard
House of Medford.

More Marines
To Withdraw
Beirut (UPD The United
States is preparing to with
draw a second marine batta
lion of 1,800 men from Leb

week," an Informed source
said yesterday.
The withdrawal would
leave Marine strength in Leb
anon at less than half the or
iginal total. It would cut the
total number of U. S. troops
in Lebanon Marines,, para
troopers and supply troops
to 10,700.
The top strength of Ameri

Monday, Aug. 18, according
to Richard (Dick) Travis,
campaign chairman.
The, lumber division and
the contractors section of the

tivities Monday night. Har
old Cook, UMC secretary,
pointed out that Monday
night's meeting will not be
the "kick-off" for the regular
campaign, which will start
about Sept. 15.
Travis also announced that
the week of Aug. 25 will be
designated as UMC Building
Trades Week, during which
building trades workers will
be given the opportunity to
work an extra hour each day
for five days. They will be
paid time-and-a-half, and the
money ' earned during that
time will be contributed to
the United Medford Crusade.
The Medford Building

Last of Trucks
Pulled Off Road
San Francisco (UPD The
last of a fleet of 150,00 trucks
which haul three-quarters "of
the highway freight .in 11
western states pulled off the
road yesterday as the strike
lockout went into its sixth
day. '
A spokesman for the Cali
fornia Trucking Association
(CTA) said all 1,600 trucking
firms allied in a dispute with
the Teamsters Union would
have shut down operations by
the end of the day.
An estimated 100,000 are
out of work because of the
dispute which stemmed from
an attempt to institute the
first master contract covering
all trucking in the west.
The Federal Mediation Ser

stantially below the mid-winter
peak.
Public Assistance '
"This year has seen the
greatest expenditures in the
history of public assistance in
Oregon," fatz said. "Public
assistance payments in the
fiscal year , just ended in
creased 12 per cent above
1956-57.
"Unemployment in Oregon
continues to decline season
ally, but the July jobless fig
ure was 59 per cent greater
thanin July of last year and
fully 121 per cent greater
than the July 1956 unemploy
ment level," the economist
said.
During June, for the first
time since January, non-farm
employment in the state in
creased. This is on a season
ally adjusted basis, Katz said.
Employment in July, consid
ering seasonal factors, had a
large drop. This indicated
that no significant recovery
from the recession has been
made yet in the state, he said.
Failures Rise
The number of business
failures in Oregon during the
first half of 1958 was 27 per
cent above the same period of
1957. It also -was 178 per
cent above the. same period
of 1956. The dollar value of
such failures was small, how
ever. It was 3Vfc per cent be
low the same period in 1957
and 42 per cent above the
first half of 1956, the econo
mist said. Source for these
figures was Dunn and Brad

Rocket Officials Start
Moon Shoot Countdown
Cape Canaveral, Fla. (UPD
U. S. rocketeers began the
countdown last night for, an
historic attempt to reconnoit
er the moon today with a
three-stage rocket which has
a televsion-equipped instru

would require a journey of at
least 220,000 miles through
space to be a'success.
The ' Air Force refused to
confirm unofficial reports
that the countdown was un
derway. But a high source
said at 10:45 p.m. (EST) (8:45

Former AEC Chief
Gordon Dean Is
Among Victims
Eleven Others Are
Reported Injured ' "
Nantucket, Mass. (UPD The
Civil Aeronautics Board yes
terday began an investigation
into the crash of a Northeast
airliner that took 23 lives
when it missed a runway on
this fog-bound resort island.
In a statement last night,
Northeast vice president Al
fred A. Lane disclosed official
times of radio transmissions
between the ill-fated craft and
communication points on
land.
1 Eleven other persons were
injured, some critically, when ,
the two-engine craft crashed
and" burned to the left and
short of a runway last night.
Among the dead was for
mer Atomic Energy Commis
sion chairman Gordon E.
Dean.
Northeast said that between
11:11 p.m. (EDT) and 11:28
p.m. visibility was reduced
from three-quarters of a mile
to a half mile but that the air
craft did not acknowledge an
11:28 advisory warning it of
the shortened visibility.
"The investigation now in
progress will determine
whether the flight was still
in the air at the time of this
last message," Lane said.
Veteran pilot John J. Burn
ham, 36, of Marshfield, Mass.,
who died, was at the controls
as the plane brought week
end visitors from New York
to the island. He had been in
contact with various commu
nication facilities throughout
the flight, Northeast said.
There were conflicts in last
night's statement by North
east and reports , officials
made earlier. But an airlines
official said the statement was
"official" and that statements
made earlier were only "re
ports." ,
It was earlier reported that
Burnham apparently turned
off his radio and placed the
fate of the Convair in signals.
Northeast explained that the
flight, 258 from LaGuardia
Airport in New York, was
equipped with such instru
ments, called visual omni
range approach. '
"All flights under control
of instrument flight rule from
New York to N"antucket main
tain communications with
New York Airways Traffic
control then Boston Airways
Traffic control and after pass
ing east of New Bedford by
Otis Air Force base radar ap
proach control," last night's
statement said.
Told Weather Clear
Early reports said that
Burnham was told by Otis
that weather was clear and
that Northeast officials told
him there was sufficient vis
ibility for a landing.
It was believed that Burn
ham later closed his radio and
tuned into a signal approach
beam. It was reported earlier
that Northeast officials then
noted the fo' rolling in and
tried to call Burnham but .
that he could not receive the
transmissions.
"It circled the field. I look
ed up and it was so clear that
could see the lights," said
taxi driver James Allen, who
was at Atwood Memorial Air- .
port anticipating the usual
week end business rush.
"The plane started cQming
in. Then all of a sudden, the
weather socked in," he said. ;
Within moments the liner
slammed into the desolate
moors near the airport. and
witnesses said they saw a fist
of flame zoom up through the
fog. The airliner split like
an egg as its wings were
shaved off by trees.
