Corvallis Seed
Mill, Warehouse
Levelled by Fire
Corvallis - 1UPD - A $500,000
lire destroyed the Oregon
Seed company mill and ware
bouse here late Sunday night,
and for a time threatened to
touch off nearly 100,000 gal
lons of gasoline and fuel oil
stored nearby.
'. Firemen continued to pump
water on the smoldering ruins
early today.
A three-story grain elevator
and two-story warehouse were
destroyed by the flames. An
adjoining company office was
gutted.
Maurice B e a"l, Corvallis,
owner of the firm, said about
$200,000 of grass seed and
stored wheat and barley was
destroyed by the fire.
5 A boxcar, parked on a sid
ing alongside the plant, burst
into flames and also was de
stroyed. It was lorded with
seed for shipment, Beal said.
Sparks Set Blaze
Sparks from -the spectacu
lar blaze set fire to a barn
and a shed several hundred
feet from the fire.
A Union Oil company stor
age tank farm, located acfoss
the railroad siding from the
blazing structure, was threat
ened by the flames.
A company spokesman said
about 100,000 gallons of gaso
line, diesel oil and fuel oil
were stored in the .tanks.
Paint of the huge tanks was
blistered by the heat.
Fir men Hampered
The firefighters were ham
pered by a shortage of water
in the area. The fire was just
south of the city limits here.
Hoses were stretched to a
nearby mill pond, and to
Mary's river, about a quarter
of a mile away.
All available fire equip
ment in Corvallis was called
to the scene. Two pumpers
from the Albany fire depart
ment, some 10 miles away,
were ordered out but remain
ed on standby duty only.

Porter Asks End
Of Spoils System
In Census Taking
I Washington, D.C. - Con
gressman Charles O. Porter
(D-Ore) has proposed that the
"spoils system" be taken out
of the census. Porter, a mem
ber of the census subcommit
tee of the house committee on
Post Office and Civil Service,
attacked political hiring of
census enumerators in a
speech last week on the floor
of the House of Representa
tives. Porter said he felt the time
had come in U. S. political
history to apply to census tak
ing the same high principles
of administration that are ap
plied to all other government
projects employing American
citizens. Census enumerators
are now hired by means of a
procedure which census offi
cials call the "referral sys
tem," which means that can
didates are referred to hiring
officials by local Republican
functionaries.
In calling for an end to po
litical selection, Porter sug
gested that the bureau of the
census should assume full re
sponsibility for the hiring of
all personnel required to take
the census. He said he felt
civil service procedures for
such a short period of time
would be expensive, unwieldy
and impractical.
"It is my special duty," said
Porter, "as a member of the
subcommittee, to be concerned
and to speak out for honesty,
competence and economy." He
noted that the 1960 census
would be the most expensive
in history. The cost has been
estimated at $118,000,000, al
most $30,000,000- above the
cost of the 1950 census.

Russian Premier
Said Not Seeking
Data on Strength
..(Continued from page one)
Khrushchev is not coming
to Washington to learn any
thing about us or our strength
that he does not know al
ready. The real purpose of
his visit is to appraise our
determination and will to
stand up and resist Communist
aggression and mischievous
probings around the world.
Khrushchev's main objec
tive, I believe, is to see wheth
er he can divide us as a peo
ple and lure us into com
promising our rights. . He
would also seek by every
means to divide us from our
allies and then go about pick
ing them them off one by
one. Since Khrushchev has
the initiative to make war, he
also has the advantage of be
guilding us with offers of
peace. This is where Khru
shchev is most dangerous and
why we have to be exceeding
ly careful about maintaining
our strength and never letting
down our guard.
Most Unfortunate
It would be most unfortun
ate if by the exchange of visits
we allow the Russians or the
j world to gain the impression
mat we are being lulled into
complacency.
I hope that Khrushchev,
'when he leaves here, will
have a clearer understanding
of what he and the Kremlin
are up against in American
determination to stand with
our allies. Let us be sure that
it is a more accurate and
realistic evaluation than eith
er Mikoyan or Koslov seem
ed to have got out of their
visits.
Disregarding all the cere
monies that will be connected
with Krushchev's visit a
visit that I have favored it
is in Washington that Khru
shchev must learn conclusive
ly where and how we stand.
The reception accorded the
President in Moscow will have
little bearing on Khrushchev's
decisions and acts and that
is why I feel that little pur
pose will be served and a
great deal of misunderstand
ing might arise from the Pres
ident's return of Khrushchev's
visit'.
Could Be Distorted
There are all sorts of inter
pretations that can be given
to a visit by - a President of
the United States, and such
a journey to Russia could be
distorted for propaganda pur
poses beyond the announced
intent. The claim that the ten
sions of the cold war between
the East and the West could
be lessened by such visits is
to ignore the basic reasons
for the cold war.
I do not think the Com
munists are impressed by any
thing evcept force. They do
not respond to tough talk un
less that talk is backed by
force. The only way to insure
peace is to make certain that
they who threaten understand
that we will fight if given no
other choice.
Up to now I see no evi
dence that the Communists
have changed their goal,
which is to impose their rule
on the world. This we have
to prevent.
Should Invite Allies
One place where we must
make that clear to Khru
shchev is at the White House.
Equally important is that our
allies and friends should never
have reason to entertain any
misgivings as to the firmness
of this resolve. I think it
would have been more in
keeping with our responsi
bilities and our leadership to
have invited the heads of al
lied governments and the Sec
retary General of NATO to
come to Washington before
Khrushchev's visit to this
country. This would- have
been an opportunity to re
mind the' world, and our
selves as well, that our se
curity and peace are mutually
interdependent.
But in his decision to visit
Bonn, Paris and London in
preparation for his meeting
with Khrushchev in Washing
ing, the President has the
complete support of a nation
united.
I cannot say it too often
that the proper place to con
duct any negotiations affect
ing the peace of the world is
in the United Nations. The
world has had all it ought to
stand from the maneuvering

Harriet R. I want to visit!
Al at his home.
Mrs. L. R. She's too young
for that.
Harriet R. I am 18 and a
freshman at a junior college
near my home. Recently I
have been going out with a
boy of 20 who goes to a near-'
by teachers' college and who!
comes from a farm very far
from my home.
When he returned home for
vacation Al asked me to come
to his home for about a week.
I have never been on a real
farm and I am dying to go, but
my mother thinks it wouldn't
be proper. With his mother
and father and four younger
sisters and brothers to chap
erone us, I don't see what
could be improper about it.
I think I am in . love with
Al and he with me, but we
haven't talked of marriage
yet. I think he may be too
shy. Anyway, I'm sure he's
never asked a girl to travel
so far to visit him.
Mrs. L.R. I think Harriet
is entirely too young to go
traveling alone to visit men
at their homes. It would be
different if Al had proposed
to her. Then I would at least
know that his intentions were
all they should be.
Al looks like a very nice
boy and has always behaved
beautifully here. He must
come from a good family, but
after all how can can you be
really sure? You hear so many
things these days.
Another thing I don't like
about this trip is the idea that
Al may have asked Harriet to
his home to have his family
look her over before he pro
poses. I think she may be em
barrassed by this. She's a very
senstitive girl and I wouldn't
want her to be subjected to.
an unpleasant experience.
The Council: Much of Mrs.
L. R.'s uneasiness could have
been cleared by a letter from

and bickerings of nations seek
ing to exploit others. The
United Nations has played an
increasingly important role in
focusing the light of world
opinion on transgressors.
New Kind of Menance
In this period of transition
from old exploitive colonial
ism to indpendent and nation
alism, let us not overlook the
growing menace of a new
brand of colonialism the Red
exploitive colonialism.
If Russia is sincere in her
professed desire- for peace,
Khrushchev ought to come be
fore the United Nations to try
to work out a constructive
plan for disarmament and con
trol of nuclear weapons and
to cease interfering in the in
ternal affairs of other nations.
But from experience we ought
to know that plans, resolu
tions and agreements made by
the Communists up to now
are meaningless.
What the world needs is a
show of good faith by peaceful
acts and deeds by Khrushchev
and not through visits, fan
fare and gala performances.
While we are striving to
achieve some common work
ing ground for .peace with the
Communists, we are compel
led to maintain and build our
military might, no matter
what the cost.
Al's mother telling her that
Al has spoken of Harriet, that
she is always eager to meet
her friends and that she has
a pleasant room for the girl
with one of her own daugh
ters. However, since such a let
ter has'nt come, it would not
be amiss for Mrs. L.R. to write
to Al's mother telling her that
her daughter has never paid
such a visit before and that
she is somewhat uncertain
about the advisability of it.
She should be able to judge
from the answer whether or
not Harriet will be safe, com
fortable and welcome in the
household.
We think a letter from the
feminine head of the house is
always in order in a case like
this, but outside of this factor
we can see no potential harm
and much potential good in
this visit.
If Al has behaved well at
all times in the past, it is a
fairly certain sign that he
comes from a good .family,
The fact that he likes to in
vite his friends to his home
also speaks well for him. If
he is thinking about marriage,
he is very wise to invite Har
riet to his home where she
can be "looked over" by his
family. After all, she will be
looking them over too. If she
can fit in well with his family,
it is one promising sign for
the future. If she cannot, it
would be better to know it
now than later.
It is very good for young
men and women contemplat
ing marriage to know one
another in circumstances oth
er than those afforded mere
ly by dating. Harriet will have
an iaeal opportunity to see
Al's relationships with mem
bers of his family. She will
see how he spends his time,
whether or not he generally
good humored, cooperative
and self-sufficient. It helps to
know the best and the worst
about these things before tak
ing the plunge.

Cohen Addresses
Lawyer Group
Miami Beach, Fla.-flJID-Mob-ster
Mickey Cohen, 45, who
has faced enough attorneys
to pick up considerable legal
jargon, flew here Sunday to
address a lawyer's group on
how to pay your income tax.
Cohen made a five-minute
talk at the ninth annual Belli
Trial Lawyer's Seminar, orig
inated in 1951 by San Fran
cisco attorney Melvin Belli.
The seminar was not con-,
nected with the five-day con
vention of the American Bar
Association which opened to
day. Belli, who defended Cohen
in Los Angeles last week, said
the trip served as a brief va
cation for Cohen and gave
them a chance to get together
privately for talks. Cohen
said he was getting $2,500
and expenses for a speech on
"Crime Does Not Pay," but
Belli said there was no pay
involved.
Belli said Cohen's off-the-cuff
talk lasted about five
minutes. He estimated that
300 of the 800 lawyers regis
tered for the one-day seminar
were in the audience.
Belli said he asked Cohen
to advise the group if it were
