If ho said that, Ickes testified
it was a mistake because "im
proper methods had been used
by Mr. Pauley and used con
stantly by him."
When Tydlngs said that the
former secretary of interior was
contradicting himself, the wit
ness interrupted him to assert:
"Now you don't have to
shake an admonitory finger at
mc. I hope your record is as
clear as mine."
Tydlngs referred to Ickes'
previous testimony that Pauley
In 1944 made "tho rawest prop
osition ever mado to mo." This,
Ickes said then, was a sugges
Hon that $300,000 in democratic
campaign funds could be ob
tained from oil men if the gov
ernment did not press the tide-
lands issue.
"wiiv Hirin't vnn toll Presi

was going around soliciting

who might benefit?" Tydlngs
demanded.
"I said to President Roose
velt on one occasion," Ickes re
plied: "No oil man should be
treasurer of the democratic na
tional committee and sooner or
later you are going to have a
scandal on your hands."
Why hadn't Ickes told Presi
dent Truman about Pauley,
Tydlngs wanted to know.
"I did lead up to it two or
three times," Ickes replied. "Ho
asked me no questions. I sup
posed he didn't want to know."
Earlier, Ickes asserted If a
California conservation measure
supported by Pauley had be
come law in 1939 the navy
might havo saved 150,000,000
barrels of oil at the Elk hills
reserve.
There appeared little senti
ment to discount the weight of
Churchill's words on American
public opinion, coming as they
did only five days after Secre
tary of State Byrnes told the
world this country must stand
ready to fleht. if necessary, to
protect the . principles of - the
.United .Nations charter., ; .
Churchill spoke at Fulton
Mo., yesterday as a private citi
zen. But the fact that he was in
troduced by President Truman
lent perhaps even more impor
tance to his words than if they
had been voiced on the floor of
commons in Churchill's role of
leader of his majesty s govern
ment's loyal opposition.
It has been emphasized, how
ever, that Mr. Truman's appear
ance, on the same platform does
not constitute -an administration
endorsement of Churchill's
views..
Churchill's speech came in for
praise and criticism among mem
bers of congress today, and for a
time engaged tne nouse in a Hur
ry of debate.
Rep. Cox (D-Ga.) inserted the
Churchill text in the house rec
ord, telling the chamber that it
cannot be doubted that Russia
"intends to spread her power
and attempt to communize the
whole world.
Rep. Rankin (D-Miss.) com
mented "Winston Churchill ren
dered civilization a great service."
But Chairman May (D-Ky.) of
the house military committee
told the house he did not believe
the United States should take
any position on military alli
ances against Russia until Russia
has been given -on opportunity
to state her position through the
United Nations- organization.
On the other side of the capi
tol, a number of influential sena
tors rejected the Churchill sug
gestion lor a military coalition
with Britain as an affront invit
ing, Russian retaliation and as a
"body blow" to the United Nations.-

Bowles Gets 4
Years, Parole
Maurice "Buddy" Bowles, 20-
year-old Klamath Falls youth
convicted of statutory rape last
week, was sentenced to serve
four years in the state peniten
tiary this morning and immedi
ately paroled to the district at
torney by Circuit Judge Dayid
R. Vandenberg.
The young man's attorney, U,
S. Balcntine, made an emphatic
plea for clemency before sen
tence was passed, saying that the
jury which convicted Bowles
was making him a scapegoat for
possible past miscarriages of jus
tice in the court here.
Balentine cited newspaper
and general public criticism of
the laxity of juries in recent
criminal cases here as having
had an undue influence of the 12
men who tried Bowles.
' "If this boy has to bear the
punishment for Earl Heuvel it's
a tremendous miscarriage of jus
tice," Balentine asserted. Heuvel
was acquitted of two morals
counts in the court recently and
two others were dismissed.
Judge Vandenberg allowed
Balentine to place several resi
dents of the Altamont district on
the stand this morning to testify
to the general family reputation
and homelife of the 14-year-old
girl involved in the case. All
were of the opinion that Bowles
should be paroled.
New Timber Bid
Plan Proposed
MEDFORD, March 6 (JP) A
proposal that timber cutting
contracts be awarded by the
government to firms which
would utilize by-products was
made here yesterday by Glen
L. Jackson.
Jackson, power company of
ficial, told a group of newsmen
touring Oregon industries that
bids on public-owned timber are
now all identical, at the ceiling,
and are awarded by drawing
one from a hat. "How can you
get capital to go into lumber
rcmanufacturing plants on that
basis?" he asked.
He suggested the bids be
awarded to firms which use all
the wood, converting sawdust
and chips into things like wood
flour, alcohol or plastics.

Rails Announce Strike
By The Associated Press
Heads of two big operating
brotherhoods today set ,6 a. m.
(EST) Monday as the deadline
for a progressive strike which
could paralyze the nation's rail
road systems.
The announcement was made
at a press conference called in
Cleveland by A. F. Whitney of
the trainmen's brotherhood and
Alvanley Johnston of the Broth
erhood of Locomotive Engi
neers. The announcement officially
confirmed reports from local
officers of the brotherhoods in
many cities across the country
that they already had received
instructions for the walkout.
Whether the strike Swill go
off as scheduled, however, was
not clear immediately. Under
the railway labor act, President
Truman can appoint an emer
gency board to study the dis
pute and submit recommenda
tions. Such procedure ' is pre
sumed to forestall any strike
from 30 to 60 days.
Truman Seeks Church Aid
For Bogged-Down Program
By ERNEST B. VACCARO
COLUMBUS, O., March 6 (P)
President Truman today laid at
the door of "certain interests,"
which he described as "greedy
for gold," the responsibility for
much of the opposition to his
domestic legislative program.
ApoealinK directly for church
support of measures which have
bogged down in congress, tne
president told a special session
of the Federal Council of
Churches of Christ in America:
"A truly religious fervor
among our people would go a
long way toward obtaining a na
tional health program; a nation
al housing program, a national
education program, and an ex
tended and improved social se
curity program."
Speaking after a parade
through flae-draped. crowd-
lined High street from his spe
cial train to the Deshler-Wallick
hotel, the president called for "a
rising standard" of homo life,
He urged religious support
also for the development of
atomic energy under "a high
moral code" to rescue a "sick"
world "in the doorway of de
struction." ,
The president said that if the
people "really believed in the
brotherhood of man, it would
not be necessary to pass a fair
employment practices act" to
prevent racial discrimination In
job-giving, and added:
"If certain interests were not
so greedy for gold there would
be less pressure and lobbying to
Induce congress to allow the
price control act to expire, or to
keep down minimum wages, or
to permit further concentration
of economic power.
, "A truly religious fervor
among our people would go a
long way toward obtaining a na
tional health program, a na
tional housing program, and an
extended and improved social
security program."

Bulb Shortage
Hits H-N Camera
Shortage of flashbulbs has
"blacked-out" The Herald and
News camera.
As a repercussion' of the east
ern electrical workers strike,
the local press camera went on
a "limited service" basis today
with all interior action flash,
shots definitely on the impos
sible list. No more flash bulbs
were to' be had either through
local suppliers or Portland, San
Francisco and . Seattle ware
houses. According to authorities, this
situation may exist for some
time. One supplier said that
he didn't look for flashbulbs
on the market until perhaps
next September, and suggested
that The Herald and News

. At the present the local press
photog is considering his advice-
very seriously. (The boss,
