PAGE FOURTEEN HERALD & NEWS. KLAMATH FALLS. OREGON SATURDAY, JANlTAPu Hudson, Nash Car Firms Plan It Fourth Merger ; Will Make Unit DETROIT Ifl Hudson Motors and Nash-Kelvinator are consoli dating pi a r king another in a txsjMes of big intercompany deals in the auto industry in recent months, Subject only to anticipated stock holder approval, the Hudson Motor Car Co. and Nash-Kelvinator Corp. will become the American Motors Corp. , An estimated 355 million dollars in total assets and more than 100 million in working capital are in volved. Boards of directors of the two companies agreed on terms of the consolidation yesterday. N'K's Nash and Kelvinator divi sions and Hudson agreed to be come separate divisions of the new corporation. Kelvinator is the elec trical appliance-producing division of N-K Corp. - The plan also called for convert ing three shares of Hudson stock for two of American Motors. Each share of Nash-Kelvinator stock will become one share in the new corporation. A. E. Barit, Hudson president, will be director and consultant in American Motors. George W. Mason, president and board chair man of Nash-Kelvinator, will be president and chairman of the board of the new corporation. In a joint statement the com- Biggest panies said their combined sales in the year ending last Sept. 30 topped the 68-m ill ion-dollar mark. During this same period, Hudson and Nash turned out a combined auto production of 244,507 units while Kelvinator manufactured 638,000 household and commercial appliances. The merger will make American Motors the fourth largest automo bile producer in the nation, behind the "big three" of General Motors, Ford and Chrysler. The consolidation will be the sec ond in the auto industry within the past year. Last spring Kaiser Mo tors bought Willys-Overland Motors for a reported 62 million dollars. . More recently, GM bought the Kaiser Willow Run properties In Michigan and Chrysler purchased all Briggs Manufacturing Co. car body plants. The Nash-Hudson merger, ru mored for months, leaves only Packard and Sludebaker playing solitary roles among the nation's so-called "independent" auto man ufacturers. Rumors of consolidations affect ing these also have been heard. However, there has been no official comment. Nash-Kelvinator and Hudson em ploy more than 40,000 persons in El Segundo, Calif., Milwaukee and Kenosha, Wis., Detroit, and Grand Rapids, Mich. NEW YORK (if-Chief Justice Earl Warren says liberty, not communism, is "the most conta gious force in the world" and ul timately will penetrate the Iron Curtain. Warren spoke last night at a Columbia University bicentennial dinner. The address, his first ma jor speech since he was named to head the U. S. Supreme Court last fall, was carried by all four major 'radio networks. Our nation's strength, he said, 'is in our diversity," and "our power is in freedom of thought and research." He added: "No Communist Government, nn fascist government, . no govern mcnt that is totalitarian could tol erate that approach to the prob lems of life . . . Such government cannot tolerate dissenting views. Washington Wheat Men In Critical Condition; Will Refect Ike's Plan OLYMPIA Ml The Washington director of agriculture Thursday predicted Washington wheat farm ers will reject President Eisenhow er's flexible farm price support program at this time. , Sverre Omdahl said the wheat farmers, their storage space taxed to capacity by surplus grain, arc facing one of their most critical periods and must depend on the present government program. Virtually none of the record 1953 wheat crop has been sold, Omdahl reported, and much of the 1952 crop is still in storage. - The farmers have no place to dis pose of it except to the govern ment. "Every elevator, every big red Search On For Torture Death Slayer OKLAHOMA CITY n The search or Otto A. Loci, 47-year-old Syracuse, N. Y. man charged with the brutal knife-slaying of his 31-year-old traveling companion in a tourist court here Sunday night Stretched from New York to Rose burg. Ore.. Friday. But Loel continued to elude the net. Officers found the scantily clad body of Mrs. Elizabeth Jeanne Henderson, pretty Compton, Calif., housewife and mother, in the motel Wednesday. She had been dead since Sunday, they said. Authorities said her death was the work of a "maniac." They said Mrs. Henderson probably was tor tured several days before she was stabbed repeatedly and beaten to death. At Roseburg, Ore., Mrs. Log! told state police she hhd no idea where her husband was. She said tho last she had heard from him was a telephone call Jan. 6. Loel and Mrs. Henderson were driving eastward together on - a share-t he-expense basis. She in tended to visit her mother, Mrs. Helen Cole, at Newark, Ohio. Loel had been reported en route to Syracuse to visit his estranged wife. Then it was learned Mrs. Loel was in Oregon. Mrs. Henderson's body was found by the tourist court manager after Loel paid rent on the room until Tuesday, then disappeared. The manager entered the room and found the body stuffed under the bed, her head on a blood-soaked pillow. building and every silo in the statt-. is filled with wheat," Omdahl said. "Come May 1 it will be surren dered to the federal government." He explained. Since there has been virtually no market, for the wheat, farmers have taken government loans on their surplus. The surplus wheat. held as collateral by the Commod ity credit Corp.- is stored away in what facilities are available. me farmers will turn it over to the government May l when re payment is due because the mar ket value probably still will be less than the amount they borrowed," Omdahl said. The situation will be even worse next June," he continued. At present Omdahl reported 145 million bushels of wheat in storage in the Pacific Northwest. Approx imately two-thirds of it was pro duced in Washington in 1952 and and 1953. He estimated that 20 mil lion would be disposed ofperhaps 10 million to Jauan and 10 million through other trade channels leaving a surplus of 125 million bushels on hand when the new crop tomes m in June. in June, - umaani said, "we are going to fill every ship in the Olympia and Columbia River mothball fleets and still dumn an- proximately 25 million bushels on the ground unless new government or private storage facilities be come available.'1 He estimated that the ships in the Olympia and Astoria mothball neets would hold 35 million bush' CIS. Why no market? Freight rates make it Impossible to ship It East to compete with Midwest wheat; Canada is selling feed wheat cheaper; and the Asia and Far East markets are virtu ally lost. As a result, Omdahl .said flatly that; "Washington wheat farmers will not accept the President's flexible support program at this time be cause of the surplus they now have." But, Omdahl added, other Wash ington farmers wljl welcome, the program as they have nothing now nnd the President's program will give them protection in case of a crop failure." Big Four Eyeing Plan BERLIN, Germany (ffi The three Western Allies made plans today to resume talks with tho Rus sians today or tomorrow ton a site and other arrangements for the Berlin Big Four conference. The governments of the United States, Britain and France sent new Instructions to their high com missioners in Germany. The West ern omclals Immediately went Into conference in Bonn, the West Ger man capital, to coordinate their positions. Informed quarters In Washington said last night the United States was ready to agree to Russian demands that half the foreign min isters' meetings be held in Soviet controlled East Berlin and half In the Allied-controlled Western zone. In the preliminary talks during the past week here, which dead locked early yesterday over the question of the site, the West's three Berlin commandants had In sisted that three meetings be held in West Berlin to each one In the East The U. B. government was re ported to teel that such a differ ence was too minor to risk delay ing the meeting, due to start Jan. 25. Warren, In First Big Speech, Lauds Freedom All must bow to one creed, one party, one faith . . . "Liberty, not communism, Is the most contagious force in the world. It will permeate the Iron Curtain. It will eventually abide every where. For no people of any race will long' remain slaves." The right of dissent and free in quiry, he said, must be safeguard ed if America "is not to store up the seeds of its own destruction. "The more turbulent the times the more essential the freedom of inquiry. We are now living in such times . . . "When men are free to explore all avenues of thought, no mat ter what prejudices may be aroused, there is a healthy climate in the nation . . , Our universities and our colleges are. therefore, even more precious to us now than in normal times." Reuther Case Snarled Up By International Problem DETROIT Ifl The State's Wal- ter Reuiher murder plot case was at a virtual dead stop Friday, tied up light in a series pt court delays. Pros. Gerald K. O'Brien wasn't saying what his next move would be. It was reported, however, that he and associates wee looking for a way to facilitate extradition from Canada of Donald Ritchie, the re luctant ace witness. Considering all the possible in ternational legal ramifications, it might be weeks before Ritchie could be brought back over the Detroit neighboring river from Windsor, Ont. His hearing is set for Jan. 21 in Windsor. Ritchie is the man who suddos- edly made 510,000 on the attempt to kill Reuther $5,000 which he said was given him by one ot the lour men he named as conspirators and another '$5,000 as a reward from Reuther's CIO auto union for his story to police of the alleged plot. The union itself announced it made the So, 000 reward payment. Courts here and in Windsor Thursday deferred the cases of two co-oeienuants, Carl Renda, 35, and Clarence Jacobs, 48. Renda's was put over until Jan. 29 and Jacobs' until Jan. 22. Pros. O'Brien vainly sought a three months continuance of Renda's case.

O'Brien vainly sought a three months continuance of Renda's case. Ritchie says Renda is the man who paid him $5,000 for taking part in the shotgun assault on Reuther April 20, 1948.

S. ambassador to Ko rea, denies favoring a policy of "appeasement" toward Red China as charged by Sen. Herman Welker (R-Idaho) and terms Welker's attack on him a "great aid to the Communists." In a Senate speech yesterday, Welker referred to an interview with Dean published Jan. 3 in the Providence (R.I.) Journal and said: 'Mr. Dean offers the view which has long been held by pro-Red apologists in the State Department that 'there is a possibility that ill: Chinese Communists are more interested in developing them selves in China than they are in international communism.' "I can't believe anything can be farther from the truth, Dean, a former law partner of Secretary of State Dulles, broke off preliminary peace talks with the Communists at Panmunjoin Dec. 12 after the Reds accused the United States of "perfidy" in the prisoner ot war release last June by South Korea of 27,000 anti- Communist Korean War prisoners. Dean called a news conference last night at his Wall street law offices and said: "I am 100 per cent against ap peasemcnt or knuckling under, and to the best of my knowledge and belief I have fought the Com munists at every turn. "I have said that in the selfish interests of the American people, we must face tacts as we find them, not as we would like to find them . . . "I shall continue to do every thiug I can to help the Far East and Southeast Asia to fight com munism. I have spent most of the last five months trying to solve the Korean problem, which is a very tough nut to crack. Dean said Welker's attack him "definitely" will affect his further efforts in the Korean ue gotiations. 4 "I don't think we realize the difficulty the people in South Ko rea will have in realizing how a person so strongly against com munism as I am could be attacked by a U. S. senator," Dean said, Goden Circle Proves To Be Busted Idea In Films By BOB THOMAS HOLLYWOOD Ifl Whatever happened to the Golden Circle LANGELL VALLEY By CORA LEAVITT Mr. and- Mrs. Fred Combs of Snohomish, Wash., spent several days with his mother, Mrs. Homer Roberts, other relatives and friends.

Mrs, Marlon Lindsay is chairman of the committee. A couple of yea rs ago. Pa ra- I mount put forth a big hoopla about a aozen or so young hopefuls who were supposedly destined for star dom. The campaign was designed to duplicate a previous Golden Cir cle, which fostered such names as swan Hayward, William Holden, Ellen Drew and Patricia Morrison Today only one of the most re cent Golden Circle remains at Par amount Joan Taylor. Another, Mary Murphy, had a lead in a Marlon Brando picture. But onlv Barbara Rush appears to be work ing regularly in movies. One of the circle alumni was recently re ported working in a gas station. unmma Rush s fortunes are prospering at Universal-IiUerna-tional. She has been doing leads, her latest being opposite Rock Hudson in "Taza, Son of Cochise I had lunch with her and she told me why the circle proved to be something less than golden: "It was doomed from the start. As a matter of fact, I don't think it was such a good Idea. They spent a lot of money promotinfi the circle as an institution, even took all of us to New York and around the country. "But It was sold as ifh institu tion. Everybody had heard of the Golden Circle, but nobody could ten you who was in it. "Besides, it isn't practical for a studio like Paramount. The studio builds very few players from scratch, as they were trying to do with us. Whatever new people they push usually have already built their reputations in other fields, Like Rosemary Clooney from rec ords, Audrey Hepburn from the stage or Joanne Gilbert from night clubs. "The really unknown player nev er has a chance. We saw that when we were trying to get good roles. Every time a good one would come along, the bosses would try to borrow Elizabeth Taylor. "Paramount isn't geared for de veloping new people. It makes so few pictures on its own; mostly they are made by outside produc ers like Hal Wallls, Perlberg-Sea-ton or Pine-Thomas. They want the protection of a star name, and that's understandable. The only studios that can build new stars are places like MGM or U-I, where bosses like Dore Schary or Ed ward Muhl can tell producers that they have to use contract player," Senators, Representatives To Vote On Pay Boost; All Offices May Be Increased By ED CREAGH WASHINGTON W Senators and House members were invited today to vote themselves a $12,500 a year pay increase. This would boost their salary to $27,500 a year. A special commission set up to study salary problems also recom mended .a $14,500 a year Increase for Supreme Court justices, com parable raises for other federal judges and higher expense allow ances for the vice president and speaker of the House. The committee's report to Presi dent Eisenhower made other recommendations: 1. A government-provided official mansion for Vice President Nixon and his successors in the post. 2. a further study of pensions for the widows and dependents of the various officials. It said there is no such provision now for survivors of justices and other judges and "Inadequate" provisions for con gressional families. It's un to Congress itself to de cide whether to vote these in creases or settle for smaller ones or- none at all. The resolution creating the 18 member nonpartisan commission gives the legislators 60 days to make up their minds. There Is nothing to stop them from extend inn that period, however. And. with election coming up this year for a third of the Senate and all the House members, it may take them quite a while to decide whether it would be politically wise to give themselves the increase al most all of them want. An early sampling of congres sional opinion indicated the Senate may well vote for some sort of in crease. The outiook in the House is more doubtful. Whatever they do about their own pay. the legis lators are almost certain to raise judges salaries. The commission, headed by Ber nard G. Segal, an attorney of Philadelphia, agreed unanimously thnt members of Congress and fed eral judges should get higher salaries as a means of assuring the nation top-flight leadership." There was some difference of opinion, however, as to how big the increases should be. The compromise recommenda tion if finally adopted would cost the taxpayers a total of $11,336,000 year. Some lour miuion ou" of this, however, would oe paiu back in the form of income tax. The proposed salary scale would give associate justices or me Supreme Court $39,500 a year, com pared with the present $25,000. The chief justice would continue to get an ivcira S5G0. federal auntim judges would be raised from $15,000 to $27,500. Appeals Court juages from $17,500 to $30,500. Congress' last increase in com pensation was in 1946. At that lime the lawmakers raised them selves from $10,000 a year to $15,- 000. Tlie commission took note of the higher cost of living nowadays and said in addition that legislative and Judicial salaries are inade quate, out of balance with the re sponsibilities of the offices and the pay of other officials and execu tives in private industry. The commission said the pres ent pay rcales "tend to confine these important positions to per sons of independent wealth or out side earnings." The commission proposed, among other things, that the tax payers provide the entire cost of six trit.? home each year for leg islators. At present, the lawmakers are compensated at 20 cents a mile for one round trip each session. US Diplomats "Protected" WASHINGTON l.fl The State Department has devised tight in vestigative safeguards to keep any one of suspicious views from ex pounding them to U.S. diplomats at its Foreign Service Institute. It is aimed too at assuring that guest lecturers do not come into possession of secret information. The institute is In effect a school within the department for training fledgling diplomats and giving re fresher courses to veteran ones. Officials are reluctant to talk about the security regulations as to the institute or any other phases of the department's work. However, it was learned that regulations as to "guest speakers" were adopted recently after discus sions extending back to Novem ber. This is the gist of them: v 1. U Uie institute wishes to use a guest speaker it must .furnish the name to the department's se. curlty section six weeks "in ad vance of the time the speaker's services are required." Since a guest speaker Is defined as anyone outside the State De partment, high officials of other government agencies would come under a literal application of this. 2. The security office then must make a check of government agen cies to determine whether there is any derogatory imurmauim against the proposed speaker, 1 there is not, he may address the foreign service officers attending the institute.
