Olflcer Fay Holley. stationed at Gilchrist, reported he had stopped his 1950 Chevrolet coupe alongside the rond to investigate another auto accident. A 1941 DeSoto had been rolled over and was on its side in the ditch. Holley said he heard a truck com ing from the south and ran down the road, waving his asms to sig nal the driver to slow down.

' A leading Republican warned that too much bickering can lose the election for the party. But the GOP battle for delegates roared on as noisily as ever Mon day. . It even left physical violence in Its wake In one ouilying sector. Fighting broke out In Puerto Rico Sunday as Republicans chose two rival three-member delegations to the national convention in Chi cago. The delegations are uncommitted but one reportedly favors Sen. Rob ert A. Taft and the other Gen. Dwlght D. Elsenhower for the pres idential nomination. POLICE ' - ' Police quelled the Island distur bance, but the question of which delegation will be rested is Jut one more to be fought out in Chl trago Uke the question of Texas' hotly disputed delegation among others. And time Is running out. Election of Republican delegates ends Monday with the choosing of 10 in Illinois to complete the state's slate of 60. Taft was expected to widen his lead there. Of the 50 already chosen, he was 49 to Elsenhower's one. Democrats name 22 delegates Monday in Indiana, 48 others In various states later in (he week for their convention opening July 21. There's no such time-lag for the Republicans. Their convention starts two weeks from Monday with a terrific row over contested delegates shaping up beforehand. TAFT FORCES ' Taft forces struck back in news paper ads at Eisenhower's Dallas Texas, charge that the Ohtoan's backers stole Texas' convention votes as brazenly as cattle rustlers. "The Eisenhower managers are screaming 'we wui robbed' -because they know. they bare lost the ngni, tne iati advertisement saia. It added that the exclusion of Eisenhower backers from delegate picking sessions was justified be cause the general's people actually were Democrats. Elsenhower, before flying from Texas back to Denver, made a new effort to puncture the Taft camp's claim that he is a Truman candidate. IKE DENIES He denied at a news conference that the President ever offered to back him for the 1S52 Democratic presidential nomination. Sen. Styles Bridges of New Hampshire, his party's leader in the Senate, sounded a note of warning: Republicans can lose this year, he said. "If we enter the campaign bickering or divided." Bridges, who hasnt declared for either Taft or Eisenhower, expressed his views in a letter to convention delegates. It was Sen. Estes Kefauver of Tennessee, leading In the delegate count for the Democratic presiden tial nomination, who called the GOP strife a bar-room slugfest. ; "Such accusations between two leading Republican candidates be ' smirch American honor," Kefauver I told a fund-ralsingdinner in Chi ! cago Sunday night. "I have no doubt, he added "that it -will be exploited by So viet propagandists." An Associated Press poll sought to establish which candidate would get California's 70-delegate support as a second choice to Gov. Earl Warren. All declined to state a preference except for one who said he's for Eisenhower ana another who said he would back Taft. Soil District Meeting Set CHILOQUIN New state conser vation committee regulations de mand a good showing at Thursday night's hearing at the city hall here on the proposed Inclusion of almost 2,000,000 acres of Northern Klam ath County lands Into the Poe Val ley Soil Conservation District.

Korea Wl Five hun. dred Air Force, Navy and Marine pianes Knocaeo out live major Communist hydro-electrlo plants and blacked out much of North Korea and parts of Manchuria in the biggest air raid of the Korean . war Monday. Pilots said ther saw more than 200 Red MIO Jets parked on -Manchurlan base within sight of one target, but all stayed on the ground. Every Allied plane re turned safely, the Air Force laid. ' Lt. Gen. Glenn O. Barcus, U.S. Fifth Air Force commander, said the Joint air strike demonstrated "our mastery of the skies over North Korea." Full significance of the bombing was not clear Immediately, but it was recalled the power plants were spared when It seemed there was hope for solution of the deadlocked armistice talks. . . .. Japanese news editors In Tokyo recalled, also, that the Allies spared the Yalu plants when the - war seemd near a successful con clusion In early November, 1950 although remnant North Korean communists bitterly defended tne areas adjacent to them. However, the bombings along with strong Allied thrusts on the battlefront could represent the military pressure which U.N. truce negotiators have said Is needed to persuade the Communists to ne gotiate at Panmunjom. . The world's fourth largest hydro electric plant at Euiho. about 30 miles up the Yalu river from the Communist MIG base at Antung, was knocked out of service. The Yalu separates Korea from Manchuria. All targets were In Ko rea. . . OTHER PLANES T" Other planes smashed two gen erating stations at the Chosln res ervoir, where American Marines and the Seventh Division fought their bitter battle against the first waves of Chinese Communist v, troops In December. 1950. - The other two plants knocked out were on the Songchon River, approximately 18 miles north of Hamhung in Eastern Korea. Air Force and Marine olanes from dozens of Korean bases teamed with Navy craft from the i,uu ion carriers Boxer, rninp pines ' Sea, Princeton and ' Bon- homme Richard. Pilots said smoke from the burn ing Suiho plants blackened the skies over North Korea and Man churia. "We shorted about 10 million volts today." said Lt. William Taylor, of Florence. Ala. "I'm sure itvu make the;lolks in. rnv noma. .,.. town mtppy. Up until mid-afternoon my town had the fifth largest power plant iWoLson Dam) in. the world. This afternoon I have helped change its status to the fourth ' largest." AA FIRE Fliers said the Communist anti aircraft fire was heavy over Suiho. but there was no aerial opposition. Two MIGs were spotted taking off from the Antung base, but they landed again seconds later. The five plants destroyed sup plied power to Mukden and other industrial areas In Manchuria and to virtually all of North Korea. The great Suiho protect was com pleted by the Japanese In 1941 at a cost of nearly 8100,000.000.' The dam was not damaged in the at tack. It is nearly 3.000 feet long and rises 350 feet above the Yalu. Power stations below the dam. which was destroyed, had a ca pacity of 600.000 kilowatts, about 100,000 more than giant Bonneville dam in the Pacific Northwest. One combat commander said 4 we had a beautiful target, a beautiful day and we clobbered them." The big air strike followed by one day raids by powerful Allied columns of 1.000 to possibly more than 3.000 men Into Chinese lines in Western Korea. The attacks topped amr TJ.N. 1 foray into Red territory since last fall. ., s. .,, .,. ,.v RAIDING FORCE - V The biggest raiding force, prob ably a full regiment, knifed through 1 Red positions northwest of Chor won. killing or wounding more than 1.000 Communists, the Eighth Army said. Total Red casualties for the day were 627 killed and 529 wounded, the Army said. The tank-led column quickly over- , ran advance Communist positions ' and destroyed fortifications. , P 'V - v j V, f) HARVEY PRYON (above) wai mapped thit morning at Terry's Richfield Service., 1355 Esplanade Street, f ;-t.. j
