Four cave explorers huddled In ex

ground beside the broken body of
their- comrade, Marcel Loubens,
killed when he fell Into the abyas.
Loubens, 33 year - old Indus
trialist, died Thursday night as a
death-defying rescue team was
about to try hoisting him by cable
from a ledge where he had lain In
a coma nearly 36 hours.
A doctor, Andre Hslrey, had
gone down In the earth' with blood
plasma and medicines, but It was
loo late.
Malrey and three other members
of the expedition probing the
Pierre Saint Martin Cave here near
Ihe Spanish border told comrades
at the top they were so exhausted
they had decided to sleep before
beginning the task of , removing
Loubens' body..
With Malrey are Haround Tarl
eff, a photographer; Jacques Lab
eyrles, son of a former governor
of the Bank of France, and Ber
nard Occhlallni, Italian-born nat
uralized Briton.
Earlier the three had Informed
the expedition leader, Belgian Sci
entist Max Cosyns, that they would
not come up on the steel cable,
pulled by a winch. Loubens was
killed when the cable broke and

The suit is an outgrowth of Ben

Gerhard van Arkel. counsel for

Edward B. Williams, a lawyer

CIO'S Murray Attacks Ike's
Stand on Social Security
By ROWLAND EVANS, Jr.
WASHINGTON I CIO Presi
dent Philip Murrey, attacking
Dwlght D. Elsenhower's expres
sions on social security, said Fri
day he doubt "the average citizen
can find any comfort or solace In
his candidacy."
Murray addressed a "get-behlnd-Stevenson"
rally of some 400 lead
ers of the CIO and Us Political
Action Committee (PACi. The CIO
Executive Board endorsed Demo
cratic nominee Adlal Stevenson
Thursday.
Murray quoted from what he
said were past speeches and letters
by Elsenhower, and declared the
GOP candidate's views run "coun
ter to the expressed purposes of
the American people throughout
ine last ro-year period. '

MEMPHIS, Tenn. W 8helby
County political leader E. H. Crump
says he hopes persons who "re
ready to accept the Republicans or
anyone at any price" will reserve
Judgment.
The 76-year-old veteran polltican
made the statement yesterday in
endorsing the 1952 Democratic tic
ket of Adlal Stevenson and John
Sparkman.
Crump backed the States Rights
ticket In 1948 and It carried this
country by a 3,000 vole majority.
"Stevenson and Sparkman guar
antee there will be a house clean
ing from top to bottom," Crump
said, "and they are men of fine
character and high reputation "
The political leader called the Re
publicans a "selfish Inconsiderate
party" and said much of their
"propaganda sounds lixe . pipe
dreams. . . . "

TONIGHT!
A Few Minute South of Klamath Falls On Hiway 97 -;
CLOSED MONDAY NEVER A COVER CHARGE
Heavy sarcasm In his voice,
Murray aaid that Elsenhower'!
1948 and 1949 apeeches on social
security Introduced a ''fine, states
manlike, broad vision of what
America should be."
He quoted Elsenhower aa laying
this:
"We seek the Illusion called
security. We want to wear fine
shlrin and have caviar and cham
pagne when we should be eating
hotdogs and drinking beer."
Smiling broadly, Murray com
mented: "Now there'a a philosophy
to be Introduced into the American
political scene."
(In a statement at Denver on
Aug. 9, Elsenhower called for ex
pansion of the aoclal security
program to cover an additional 14
million persons, and for Increased
old-age assistance grants.)
Murray made a general attack
too on the Republican party. He
said It has "stood against any
legislation to control Inflation.'
He said 79 per cent of Senate
Republicans "voted consistently
against any form of rent control,"
and that 80 per cent of Senate
Republicans and 87 percent of
House Republicans favor the Taft
Hartley Labor Relations Act which
the Democratic party platform
pledges to repeal.
