Nixon that he stop discussing

Salem - (liPIl - The Oregon
Supreme Court today upheld
a $20,000 judgment recovered
by an injured log truck driver
against the Ross Lumber Co.
in Jackson county.
The decision written by
Justice George Rossman af
firmed Jackson County Cir
cuit Judge William S. Fort.
The company has, appealed.
v ' The driver, Clinton Ward
' Blaine, was hauling logs to a
mill operated by the company.
to unload his logs without

the winch.
Due to a defective brake
on the winch, being operated

rolled off the truck and hit
Blaine.
Practice Said Known
""' The high court said there is
"ample evidence indicating a
custom on the part of the log
truck drivers to operate the
machinery and that the prac
tice was known to the defen
dant company and that there
was ample evidence .to sup
.port a finding that additional
nrecautions should have been
taken for the safety of those
required to work about the
unloading machinery."
r The company contended
that the accident was due
solely to negligence of the
. truck drivers in operating the
machinery. But the court said

cause of the accident and

visits to the state capitol of
Nashville and to Memphis.
Kennedy planned to spend
the night at Sioux City, Iowa.
The Massachusetts senator
was in the delicate position of
having to maintain his basic
campaign theme - that Amcrl
ca has lost international in
fluence due to the "drifting"
policies of the Eisenhower ad
ministration at the time of an
East-West crisis in the United
Nations.
Nixon suggested in cam
paign speeches across Michi
gan that all candidates refrain
from picturing the United
States as weak and poorly de
fended because such state
ments might give comfort to
Khrushchev.
Kennedy interpreted this as
a request by Nixon to "dimin
ish the campaign."
No Need To Remind
This, the Democratic can
didate refused to do. He told
his first audience, estimated
by state police as 7,000 people
at the Tri-Cities airpori near
Bristol, that he did not need
to be reminded by Nixon of
the need to rally around the
President and country.
"I support the President and
I support the country," Ken
nedy said. "Mr. Khrushchev
and Mr. Castro are not im
pressed by words, speeches or
debates."
"They are impressed by
strength and power and our
vitality as a free society. My
responsibility is to speak the
truth and say what we think."
Truck Sought in
VI lU DoULakh
mauiam iwuuciy
. Klamath Falls-(UPII - Police
today looked for a pickup
truck which may have been
used in the burglary of the
.Pacific Fruit and Produce
Warehouse early Tuesday.
A heavy safe was pushed
75 to 100 yards through the
warehouse, loaded at the com
pany loading dock and hauled
away.
.i Several hours later, police
roiled in thp smith su
burban area where they found
the truck abandoned.
Indications were the safe
was transferred to another
truck at this point, police
said.
-, The safe contained $400 in
cash, some $25 in stamps and
j an undisclosed amount of
checks.
Rubber Said To
Extinguish Fire,
Remain Flexible
New York (Science Service)
- Rubber that can take ex
tremes of heat and cold was
reported to the American
Chemical Society here.
A new nitroso rubber is not
only flameproof. It extin
guishes flame. It also remains
flexible and usable at 40 de
grees below zero Fahrenheit,
is resistant to solvents and a
wide variety of strong chem
icals and stands up against
sunlight and ozone. Dr. J. C.
Montermoso of the U.S. Quar
termaster Research and En
gineering Command, Natick,
Mass., said. I
Coats Uniforms I
Used to coat fire-fighting
uniforms, the new material !
will provide greater protec-j
tion for firemen. It will also !
give some protection against
nuclear blasts which gener
ate short-impulse, high inten-1
sity heat, Dr. Montermoso ;
said.
To chemists, the nitroso
rubber is interesting because
its molecular "backbone" is
made of carbon, oxygen and '
nitrogen.
Direct contact with a flame
causes the rubber to give off
a gas which tends to extin
guish the flame. Dr. Monter
moso said.
Working with Dr. Monter
moso in the research project
were C. B. Griffis and Angus
Wilson of the Quartermaster
Research and Engineering
Command and G. H. Craw
ford of the Minnesota Min
ing and Manufacturing Com
pany, St. Paul, Minn.
Nixon Derides Talk
Of Weakness in
Military, Economy
With Nixon - (UPB - Vice
President Richard M. Nixon
today derided charges of U.S.
military and economic weak
ness and the assertion that the
nation's prestige is slipping
throughout the world.
Nixon made the statement
in a campaign speech in the
Fort Wayne, Ind., court house
square before a crowd esti
mated by Allen County Sher
iff Chester Dunifon at 20,
000. It was his second cam
paign appearance in Indiana
in 10 days.
Sfeelworkers
Hear Secretary
Atlantic City N.J. - (UPD -Labor
Secretary James P.
Mitchell told the 10th con
stitutional convention of the
United Steelworkers of Amer
ica today that relationship be
tween labor and management
will decide where American
economy will go.
Prior to today's session at
which Mitchell spoke, Donald
E. Rarick, unsuccessful candi
date for the union presidency
three years ago, was beaten
as he walked into convention
hall.
Rarick, McKeesport, P a.,
said he was attacked by one
man. He said his coat was
pulled off during the scuffle
and a number of . persons
"were kicking haymakers
while they were holding me."
Mitchell said the economic
effect of labor - management
problems is becoming a ser
ious consideration of the en
tire world economy "of which
we are a part."
Projections by the Depart
ment of Labor, he said, indi
cate a rate of economic
growth in America which
will raise the standard of liv
ing by 24 per cent in the next
10 years.
The convention also was ex
pected to feature formal dis
cussion on a proposal of com
plete medical care for the
union membership with the
steel industry helping to fi
nance it.

Nixon's derisive comment
on derogatory state m e n t s
about the nation's strength
came as he again asked for a
ban on such observations dur
ing the presence of Soviet Pre
mier Nikita Khrushchev at
the United Naitons.
Good for People
The Republican presidential
candidate said, however, that
he thinks it is "rather good"
for the American people to
get another look at Khrush
chev so they can be reminded
of how the Communist leaders
behave.
Nixon said the United States
is not perfect but he said it
is the world's strongest mili
tary and economic power.
The Soviet Union will not
catch the United States
economy in seven years, as
boasted by Khrushchev, "or
in 70 years," the vice presi
dent said.
Nixon said Khrushchev's
presence at the United Na
tions will serve as a reminder
that Communist leaders were
determined to "conquer the
world'-peacefully if possible
but by other means if neces
sary. He warned against a
"naive" misunderstanding of
the motives of the Commu
nist leaders.
The vice president did not
mention Sen. John F. Ken
nedy of Massachusetts by
name. He has used the words
"democratic rival" in the past,
however, in criticizing Ken-1
nedy's statements on the de
cline of U.S. strength and!
prestige. I
Nixon won a round of ap- j
plause when he said that
President Eisenhower had!
' ended one war and kept the
nation out of any other wars
since then."
Malpractice
Suit Affirmed
Salem-tUPD-A $6,000 judg
ment against a Portland chiro
practoc on a charge of mal
practice based on a wrong
diagnosis was affirmed today
by the Oregon Supreme court.
Beulah M. Dowell brought
suit against Dr. Paul V. Moss
berg. The woman said she con
sulted Mossberg, complaining
of various symptoms, and un
derwent a course of treat-1
menti which ended in June,
1954. -
Still feeling ill, she went
to a medical doctor who diag
nosed her ailment as diabetes.
She then sued the chiroprac
tor. The ruling affirmed Mult
nomah County Circuit Judge
Alfred P. Dobson.
The high court said that
"although a test given by the
defendant should have Indi
cated the possibility of dia
betes the defendant instead
gave her some 24 treatments
of chiropractic art which had
nothing to do with diabetes."
The opinion was written by
Justice Alfred T. Goodwin.
