Morse (Ind.-Ore.) says he expects to campaign for the Democrats in 1954. The former Republican, who bolted his party during the last presidential election campaign. made the statement to some 700 Democrats at a Jefferson-Jackson Day dinner here last night. Morse received a standing ova tion. In his speech, he continued barbed criticism of the Eisenhower administration and said Interior Secretary McKay was wrong in withdrawing support for a pro Old-Time Vaudeville Dead, Says Practitioner Kay e By ROB THOMAS HOLLYWOOD IB Can the old two-a-day vaudeville come back? "I'm afraid not." is the sad reDlv of Its leading practitioner of mod ern times, Danny Kaye. The brick haired comic has played his vaude ville show to sell-out audiences at New York's Palace, the London Palladium, the Curron In San Pran Cisco and other noted theaters. His example has stirred hones that blgtlme vaude might again rise to the glory which it held in the first three decades of this century. Every sizable U. S. city had at least one vaude house and sometimes more. Those days will not return, snys Kaye. mere aren t enough situations for an actor to appear 50 weeks out of the year, as in the old days," he remarked. "You can only play a vaudeville show in certain big cities. "Besides, there aren't enough acts to go around. The only ones who have tried to do vaudeville on the old scale are myself, Judy Garland, Jack Benny and Betty Hutton. That isn't enough to keep a circuit going." Despite his pessimistic outlook, he was enthusiastic about vaude ville for those who can do it. "It's the greatest business In the world," he glowed. "It's even bet ter than the old two-a-day, You don't have to do two shows a day only matinees on Wednesdays and Saturdays. Otherwise you only do one show a night. His "one show" is a rigorous workout, however. Kaye stays on stage for an hour knd 40 minutes of dancing, singing, telling jokes and generally cutting up. But, as anyone who has caught his act will testify, he certainly enjoys his work. He evokes the warm re sponse from an audience which performers in the more mechanical mediums seldom experience. It's not only fun, but profitable. Amazingly so, as Kaye admits.

"Our prospects for the develop ment of the maximum power po tential of ours streams under Ei senhower and McKay ' are dim," he asserted. Morse renewed his contention that he was not receiving fair cov erage by the nation's press, and in an interview before the dinner said he was -"well rid of" the Ore gon Republican leaders who once supported him. . . he observed. "It represents an investment of perhaps $250,000 to $300,000. It has a cast of perhaps 40 to 50 people . and carloads of scenery and costumes. It can play a theater in San Francisco and make $45,000 a week, which is good business. "Then I play the same b,ouse. 1 carry my whole show in one "small suitcase. I take along five vaude ville acts and no scenery. This show can draw $50,000 for the week." Kaye has earned' such fantastic figures wherever he plays. , So it's no wonder that he has sluffed off the other entertainment mediums to concentrate on vaude ville. He is currently making one of his infrequent movies, called "Knock On Wood." He plays a ventriloquist in the film, which, is being made Independently with those triple threat men, Norman Panama and Melvln Frank.

Michael Spinella Deported to Italy WASHINGTON Vet Michael Spi nella, New Jersey racketeer, has been whisked out of the country by air less than 24 hours after he was picked up on a deportation warrant. Spinella, 58, a one-time friend of Vice Czar - Charles (Lucky) Lu ciano, was put on a plane bound for his native Italy after his year long court fight against deportation failed. He was accused of falsely claim ing U. S. citizenship when he re turned to the U. S. In January, 1952, from a trip to Cuba. The Jus tice Department said he originally entered the U.S. in 1899 but was never naturalized.

Police said they had no tanelble ciewa in their search lor the 63- year - old West Side Renuhllcan leader. Graver, who had been in pontics all his life and has been a state representative since 1950, was seized by two men as he parked his car In his garage near ms nome about 10 oclock Thurs day night. His struggle with his abductors was witnessed by his wife, Amelia, 51, and four other persons. Commissioner O'Connor sent ' a detective to Springfield, 111., to question legislators and investigate recent activities of Graver in the capital. The Legislature Is In ses sion and Graver had returned from the capital a few hours before he was kidnaped. Police checked reports that Grav er's voting record showed that he had voted consistently for the so called Chicago crime syndicate un til last April when he switched to support legislation opposed by the hoodlum Interests., Counterfeiter For Fun Gets One-Year Term BALTIMORE IMA government official whose hobby took in the reproduction of Slo. bills was sen tenced to a year in prison yester day in what the Judge called a "puzzling case." Martin Thomas Storey, $10,000-a-year administrative officer In the Department of Agriculture, said he didn't plan to try passing his counterfeits. The 47-year-old Oxon Hill, Md. resident, said he was quite satis fied with printing plates, he made as part of his hobby of etching. But government agents said they would print counterfeit bills of better than usual quality. Miss Mary Ellen Watson, 52-year-old clerk In Storey's office, was put on probation for a year. Testimony showed she had bought blank copper engraving plates for him and watched him work on week-end visits. Agents said they found seven plates for printing $10 bills in Storey's summer home in Southern Maryland. They said he'd de stroyed the dozen bills he printed. Federal Judge W, Calvin Chesnul said: "A puzzling case." "I don't believe he ever really intended to be a counterfeiter. A real counterfeiter usually has a background of gangster associa tions." Comptroller Ok's Lome Duck Junket WASHINGTON Wl Goverment payment of the $4,600 expenses for Oscar Ewing's round the world trip, taken shortly before he left office as Federal Security Admin istrator, has the approval of Comp troller General Lindsey Warren. Warren' wrote Rep. Gross (R Iowa) that his office had found no basis for questioning legality of the payment. Gross made the rul ing public yesterday. Gross had called the trip, taken after the Republican presidential election victory last November, "a lush travel orgy" at taxpayers' expense.

Early hatches of mallards and gadwalls appear to be as large as usual but it Is a little early. Horn said, for a positive check. The wet weather however has made inroads on hatching of Ring necked or Chinese pheasants. A few small broods have been spotted in upland areas. Among these too. late hatches may swell the total. The annual roundup and count of geese on the Tulelake and Low er Klamath refuges will get un der way in a week or ten days to determine the bird population and for the annual banding program. Fish and wildlife employes from Little Churches Big Ones Into Tithing By GEORGE W. CORNELL NEW YORK Hit The big church denominations are taking an econ omic lesson from the little ones. It Involves the art of passing the collection plate at which some of the smallest denominations have proved themselves far superior. A movement has mushroomed recently among many major church bodies to try to follow the example, at least partially, of their bustling little brothers. The key to the new programs is an old idea tne tithe. "Tithing is a great new redis covery of this generation of Christ ians," said Rev. T, K. Thompson, head of the stewardshin-benevo. lence department of the National Council of Churches. "Virtually all the maior denonv inations have started vigorous titb- in& programs." He said federal Income tax laws are partially responsible. The Old Testament injunction that a tenth of what each man earns should be Ret aside as "holy unto the Lord" has received little attention In most big religious bod ies Catholic, Jewish or Protestant since the turn of the century . But many smaller bodies have continued to stress it. The result Is the annual per capita contribu tions by their members far ex. ceeds that of the bigger churches. FREE METHODISTS LEAD Pace-setters are the Fres Meth odists, averaging $104.79 per mem ber a year: Seventh Day Adven- lists. $158 per member; We3leyan Methodist. $142.21; Brethren in Christ, $124.31; Church of the Naz arene. $111.76. Compare those figures with per capita giving In churches where tlie lluie nas been out of msninn: Protestant bodies $34.32 per member a year. Roman Catholic - officially es timated at $35 a year. Jewish about $33 per person (counting four persons per family, only the heads of families being actual members of congregations). Eyeing this situation, 14 major Protestant denominations within the last few years have launched campaigns to revive the .habit of tithing. Another one, tne Method ists, largest Protestant church, plans to do so next next year. Among early boosters of the re turn to tithing among big churches were the Southern Baptists and the Presbyterians of the U. S. (South ern). , The Mormon church has a long-standing tithing program, but per capita giving records are un available. Neither Catholic nor Jewish bod- I FEEL LIKE washing job! LAUNDRY & DRY CLEANERS Opp. Post Office SATURDAY, JUNE 13, 1953 f. the Tulelake headquarters are as sisting the California State Game officials in the - annual goose roundup at Honey Lake west of Susanvtlle. The state later comes here for the banding program. .Seeding of some 4000 acres of barley for depredation control was completed before June 1. Of this total 1,700 acres are on Tule Lake and 2,300 on Lower Klamath Lake. This is 1.700 acres more than has been planted in previous years, and the new acreage is on the new " development on Lower Klamath. Weed spraying on the fields will get under way as soon as weather permits. : All earthwork, on the 20 miles of the major diking system, has been completed. Dikes have been surfaced in preparation for trans portation of rip-rapping mater, ials to spots eroded by wave ac tion. Pouring of two major eon. crote structures waterways through which water Is carried for distribution to the marsh area will be finished next week, and four more outlets remain to be poured. Leading les have initiated any special tith ing programs by that name, but spokesmen for both said the tithing idea was basic to programs to in crease giving. CATHOLICS FOR IT "Catholic publications how and" then have been carrying editorials . to strengthen the Ideal of tithing," said Monsignor Thomas J. McCar thy, of the National Catholic Wei. fare Conference. - In Judaism, the word "tithe" isn't generally used in modern con gregational parlance, since it spe cifically applies only to the law -governing the Jewish temple of ancient-times. . "But the whole, spirit of giving -more has pervaded the Jewish community In the present day," said Rabbi Joel s, Oeffen, director of field .activities and community; services of the Rabbinical Assem bly of America. The modem income tax, which brings a man face-to-face with his annual church contributions usu ally embarrasingly small doubt less had something to do with the trend, Thompson said, adding: "A person cannot make out his income tax form eVery year with out facing the question of propor tionate giving. The tithe is a good practical program for meeting a perennial problem." Rose Festival Closes Tomorrow PORTLAND Wl After thor oughly soaking the Rose Festival parade Friday, the rain let up Sat urday.
