Trade Available Reserve Officers to Meet on May 16 The Rogue River chapter of the Reserve Officers nssnrta- tion will hold a meeting at the Nikita Expected to Demand Yanks Quit Overseas Bases Br CHARLES COHDDHT Washington -d'Pli- Nikita 8 Khrushchev can be counted on to go to the summit de manding that Americans go home from their overseas mil itary bases. Getting the bases dismantled has been long-time, consum ing aim of Kremlin policy. Prime Goal It Is a prime goal of all Soviet disarmament proposals. It underlies political maneu vering to divide America and its Allies. Country after coun try has been threatened with dire consequences for having U. S. bases on its soil. U.S. overseas bases encircle the Communist empire. Their mission is to deter aggression and to have U.S. forces in ad vantageous positions to wage war if necessary. The bases are anchor points for a ring of men and missiles, aircraft and ships that con front Russian military plan ners no matter what direction they look. They are vital links holding together global alli ances. They mean that Amer icans will be present or can arrive quickly at any point of aggression. More than 730.000 Ameri can military men, from rifle men on the "front lines" to crews of hydrogen bombers poised on runways, are based outside the United States. An other 65,000 are afloat with Crane Hifs Line; Man Electrocuted Portland-lPI)-A superinten dent of a Portland construc tion crew was electrocuted Thursday when the boom of the crane he was operating struck a high-voltage power line. Killed was William Ray mond Wilson, 42. Carl E. Rudell, 32, Gresh- am, suffered severe foot burns and body abrasions from the accident. He was treated and released from Portland Sani tarium. The two were operating a crane that was lifting pre-fab- the Kavj's 8th and 7th fleets. Bases for Defense Theltnited States ha. taken the position at the Geneve dis armament conference that the overseas bases are for defense of America and its Allies, were welcomed by the nations where they were established, and would be abandoned promptly if the time ever came when they were not needed for defense. The Russians, obviously, see the bases as frustrating their aggresive aims which would be reason enough for their persistent effort to get them dismantled. They also, illog ical as it may seem to Amer icans, consider the bases as springboards for attack on the Soviet Union.

S. department of commerce, ac cording to Jjon McNeil, man ager of Medford Chamber of Commerce. "Many business firms are still unaware that these pub lications by the United States department of commerce may be purchased at nominal cost as important tools In deter mining future courses of busi ness action," he said. For example, he continued, wholesale trade In Jackson county has continued to ex pand at a rate consistant with general population increase In southern Oregon and northern California during the last four years.
