'PACE FOUR HfRALD AND NEWS, KLAMATH FALLS. ORECON FRIDAY, APRIL 7, 9Ai Wobbling' Foreign Policy Blasted By Dewey In Wisconsin New York Governor Says Military Genius Of MacArthur Insufficient Weapon To Wage Present Cold War By JACK BELL k MILWAUKEE, April t MV-Gov. ' Thomii E. Hewcy staked hii chanm ' fot Wisconsin presidential barklng . today on a program of blasting com munism but keeping the peace. I As the turn of politics sent New i Dealer Chester Bowles scurrying 1 from President Truman's ramp, the . three-way bout for Wisconsin's ?7 GOP nominating rotes reached an Infighting stage before Tusday's primary. Dewey led off with a sharp flurry of punches at Mr. Truman's "wob bling" foreign policies. The New York governor aimed . right at Gen. Douglas MacAr thur's "military genius" which Dewey said Isn't enough to win the cold war with Moscow. He let go a left hook at Harold E Stassen's "Inexperience" In deal- ing with communism. Stassen Claim Stassen countered with a round house claim that he will get the support of 14 of Wisconsin's dele gates. He suggested MacArthur and Dewey backers might be ganging up on him. By inference he left them to divide the delegation ml nortty. MacArthur's counter-attack was handled by Rep. A. L. Miller (R. . Neb.), and Phil LaFollette, former Wisconsin governor running ma a MacArthur delegate In Eau Claire, where Dewey plan red a speech today. LaFollette said people can Judge MacArthur on his record and don't need to rely on champion promises. Faced with a highly doubtful out come in the Wisconsin battle, Dew ey pulled out the stops on com munism before a capacity crowd of 1500 in the Milwaukee theatre last night In a 3000-word speech broadcast nationally (NO, the New York gor. ernor brought up the subject of Mtntnimifln and Soviet Russia it Twenty time he was Interrupted by applause. His greatest response came when after Indorsing universal military training and a selective draft, he told the crowd: I assert with all the force at my command that If we are strong enough your boys and my boys need not De sent into anouirr war. The audience approved with ap plause his sallv against MacArthur. "Military genius no matter hov excellent is not the answer that we dare to relv upon for victory In this cold war that gnaws at peace," aald Dewey. War Talk LaFollette spoke of "our frighten ed leaders talking of World War IIT and of "little men getting more men." Miller said that MacArthur "would ,n Um 1 I "He is one man who understands Russia and would serve notice on Joe Stalin that he could go no fur ther In his aggressive tactics," the congressman said. Dewey and Bowles criticised Pres ident Truman's use of military men In his administration. Dewey said the country's policies are "dominated by downs of mili tary men who by Instinct and train tag think only in terms of war." Talking of the democratic situa tion. In an address at Gaston. Conn., Bowles said the man in the street "instinctively x x x mistrusts the wisdom and Judgment of mllltarv minded men who surround the president." He said the democrats have little ehance of wlnnlnr If the president Is renominated. He suggested Gen. Dwight D. Elsenhower as a substi tute. He didn't dwell on Eisen hower's military background. Bowles Is a leader In Americans for democratic action. His exit from the Truman camp was regarded as an indication this erouD may take a similar walk at the forthcoming meeting In Philadelphia.

It Is a dying bus iness. This winter some 9000 tons of natural Ice were taken from Bear Creek lake and stored In sheds for sale during the h o t sum mer months.

Horses I'sed "I was a boy of 17 then." he said, "and we used to plow the ice with horses almost like you plow a fur row In the land." That was the way American farmers and icemen had been doing It since colonial days. And the beginning of the Ice har vest was a time of community cele bration as was the corn harvest. In the Benr creek area Albert Lewis, an unlettered man of enter prise who became a multimillion aire lumber baron, built a series of four dams to create more lake surface for his tee business. Two hundred men were kept busy cutting the Ice for M to 100 box cars that waited earh dnv to rush it to the New York metropolitan area. "Sometimes a horse would hit a soft spot In the ice and fall til." recalled Hnwe. "and It would take five or six men to pry him out again. In all the years I've been here I know of only one horse that drowned." The spread of artificial refrigera tion in recent years has taken away most of the market for natural Ice. Two of the dams here have fallen Into decay. Today Ice harvesting is a com pletely mechanized business. Trac tors replaced the horse. They sweep the lake free of snow and auto matic machines mark and cut the Ice. It Is then floated down In blorks to "the gallerv." a wooden super structure on which the Ice Is car ried up by bucket chain to the storehouses. As It moves up the gallery a se ries of knives trims the Ice lino 3S0 pound blocks. The blocks are stored in rows 3 feet high and covered with hay to protect them from the heat. "We used sawdust In the old days," said Hawke, "but the hay . cleaner and easier to handle." The Ice harvest season begins shortly after Christmas and lasts onlv six weeks. "This was a cold wlnler and the Ice was 33 lnchcs thick," Hawke sold, "but in my time I've seen 30 Inch Ice here. About 11 or 13-lnrl) Ice is the best to work with." Does natural Ire have any ad vantage over artificial lie? Hawke thought a moment, then said loyal ly: "Well, some people say It makes a colder hlghbull." cooooo ooooo- Hold, Speed Mark Juhn R.
