In The'
Dav's lews
By FRANK JENKINS
Hie Washington scene:
Senator Flanders of Vermont
wants a senate resolution CEN
6URINO Senator McCarthy. The
Washington correspondents are all
FOR his Idea, lor It would start
a first class light and the Wash
ington correspondents LOVE
fights. They make headlines, and
the Washington reporters live by
headlines.
Senator Alexander Smith of New
Jersey, wiser and more tolerant,
suggests a committee of six sen.
a tors to investigate and report on
the "alleged good or evil of so
called McCarthyism." By the time
they turned In their report, the
six senators would be all cooled
off.
Senator Smith, you see, is the
occasional individual who would
rather STOP A FIGHT than to
start one. I personally Just hap
pen to believe that more good
can be accomplished hi the mod
ern world by STOPPING fights
than by starting them. ,
Continuing the Washington scene.
Senator Mike Mansfield of Mon
tana wants a provision written into
' the foreign aid bill to stop ALL
military and economic aid to for
eign countries next June 30.
Walt a minute. Let's keep our
shirts on. By next June, .we might
want to demonstrate in the Philip
pines that America ISN'T a colo
nial Imperialist country, that it
gave the Philippines back to the
Filipinos, that it is helping the
Filipinos to HELP THEM
SELVES. In that way, we might
help the Filipinos to prove that
AMERICANISM IS BETTER
THAN COMMUNISM.
If that should happen, the
Asian might turn In and FIGHT
COMMUNISM themselves. That,
! if it happened, would be wonder
ful. At any rate, let's keep our
selves in a positon to give it a
trial.
You've heard of course of this
Frenchman Christian Dior, who
invented the fashion phrase "the
New Look" and got himself a
squillion dollars worth of free
advertising which he has used
quite shrewdly for his own bene
fit. The teletype says this morn
ing he has issued a new ukase:
"Drop the waistline to the hips
and DE-EMPHASIZE the bust
line." The fashion reporters fay he is
going back to the vogue of the
20's. A mere man would say
that what he's seeking to achieve
Is the GUNNYSACK LOOK.
There's a prevailing fashion the
ory to the effect that if you stand
still in one place LONG ENOUGH
all the fashions in women's dress
since time began will go past you.
Or
Putting it another way
If you hang 'em In the closet
when they go out of style and
keep 'em there long enough the
time will come when they'll be
high style again.
If that theory is sound, and if
you could stand still in one place
long enough, I suppose that even
tually you'd have to stand there
and WATCH THE BUSTLE AND
MOTHER HUBBARD GO BY.
As Li'l Abner says:
SHUDDER!! IIIII1
If you believe the archaeologists,
the theory IS sound. They point
out that in the island of Crete
beautifully carved ivory statuettes
have been found which prove that
as early as 3000 years BC Cretan
women were WEARING
BUSTLES. They were also wear
ing corsets. And ivory receptacles
that apparently couldn't have
been used for aikthlng but lipstick
and rouge and such have been dug
up in the same places.
I've read nowhere, however, an
account of statuettes proving that
in the days of the early Cretan
civilization women wore Mother
Hubbards.
The Mother Hubbard was a rel
atively modern crime.
One thought in closing:
This early Cretan civilization,
one of the most wonderful in hu
man history, was made possible
by the fact that FOR A THOUS
AND YEARS, immune from in
vasion by reason of the surround
ing seas, THE CRETANS RE
MAINED AT PEACE.
Isolationism was a wonderlul
thing In the period of the world
when it was possible.

Ike To Speak To
Church Meeting
WASHINGTON l President
Eisenhower Thursday accepted an
invitation to address a meeting of
the World Council of Churches at
Northwestern University in Evan
ston. ni., Aug. 19. He also will
receive an honorary doctor of laws
degree from the school.

McCarthy
Censure To
Be Debated
WASHINGTON Wl Sen. Know
land of California, the Republican
leader, said Thursday he will al
low "a full dress debate" on pro
posals that the Senate censure or
investigate Sen. McCarthy (R
Wis). It is to begin Friday and
Knowland said it may also occupy
Saturday and Monday sessions.
Knowland also told reporters he
had notning to do with a move by
Sen. H. Alexander Smith (R-NJ)
to push aside a motion of cen
sure of McCarthy being pressed
by Sen. Flanders (R-Vt).
Smith proposed that Instead a
committee of six senators, with
Vice President Nixon acting as
chairman be named to investigate
and report next Feb. 1 on "the al
leged good or evil of so-called
McCarthyism."
Knowland said: "It was his
(Smith's! own idea. No party pol
icy is involved in that."
Smith Introduced a resolution for
appointment of a committee of
three Republicans and three Dem
ocrats. He told the Senate he would
seek to substitute it for the Fland
ers censure resolution.
Knowland's decision to permit a
full debate meant he was abandon
ing his previously announced plan
for a quick motion to table the
Flanders resolution. A motion to
table is not debatable.
Knowland said "I have no In
tention of moving to table" the
Flanders motion before Flanders
can speak on It, and "I have no
intention of letting Sen. Flanders
air his views and then move to
table." .
The result, he said, should be
"rather a full discussion."
Knowland said the debate prob
ably "will tie up the legislative
program" but If that's what sen
ators want, he will allow it.
In the Senate earlier, Knowland
had suggested that the Senate
should meet early Friday because
of the possibility of "several days
of debate" on the Flanders resolu
tion.
Cordon Blasts
Atom Proposal
WASHINGTON 11 Sen. Cordon
(R-Ore) has criticized as "another
adventure in futility" a proposal
to earmark proceeds from the sale
of government-owned atomic en
ergy for education.
The proposal, offered by Sen.
Fulbright (D-Ark), was defeated
56-25 during the course of the Sen
ate's 13-day debate on the atomic
bill.
Cordon, in one of his infrequent
Senate speeches, charged that the
amendment was just "the old oil-for-education
amendment applied
to atomic energy."
He said it did not provide for
appropriation "of a red cent for
education."
"It provides for sequestration of
funds but not for their appropria
tion or use," he declared.
Cordon said when sponsors of
the amendment are ready to work
out a bill "which provides for the
payment of funds for education and
that bill carries every safeguard
known to the human mind against
any control, actual or potential,
by the federal government over
the educational processes of the
country, they can add my name to
the sponsors."
He asserted, however, there is
only one way to aid education
through the treasury "and that is
to appropriate the funds
directly.. , ."

Important Parts Of Ike's
Program Still Not Passed
WASHINGTON UB Sen. McCar
ran (D-Nev) said today Atty. Gen.
Brownell has injected politics into
national security and that this ac
counts in part for a lack of action
on the administration's antisub
versive bills.
Most it not all of the other P
Jor parts of the administratior

Adjournment
Move Blocked
WASHINGTON Wl The House
Thursday defeated a resolution
calling for final adjournment of
Congress on Saturday.
The action left the way open for
House consideration Aug. 9 of a
bill to raise the pay of postal
workers.
The roll call vote against the
resolution was 193-183, with Dem
ocrats almost solidly opposing it.
Republican Leader Halleck of
Indiana offered the resolution, with
the general understanding that the
Senate, not yet ready to quit,
would change the date to Aug. 7
or later.
The House is all but ready to
adjourn. It expects to finish its
normal business Friday and start
a series of recesses next week
while waiting for the Senate.
Tin July 31 date was defeated
after assistant Democratic leader
McCormack.of Massachusetts ex-
plained that It might foreclose ac
tion on the postal pay bill.
Sen. Carlson (R-Kan) told news
men he still believes there is
good chance for action on a pay
raise for half a million postal
workers and a million and a half
civil service employes. Carlson
heads the Senate Post Office and
Civil Service Committee which
last week approved a 6 per cent
boost for both groups.

CONFERENCE
The President told his news con
ference ' ' would be more than
bitter' 'ppolnted if Congress
ad' 'hout passing them.
' 'y, a housing bill
A the things he
jj -ared Congress.
ffr ..lowland (R-Calif) and
P ,a (R-Mlch) today predlct
assage within the next few
.ays of most of the other bills
Eisenhower listed. Knowland, the
senate Republican leader, said
this program is "moving along
fast." Ferguson, head of the GOP
Policy Committee, predicted its
completion and adjournment of
Congress by Aug. 7.
The President said also that an
Increase in the 275-billion-dollar
debt limit Is a necessity. The
House passed a 15-billion-dollar
bike last year but the Senate
balked, and Sen. Byrd (D-Va) and
others still oppose any Increase.
CONFIDENT
Ferguson said he is confident
that a measure bearing "a rea
sonable facsimile" to the Presi
dent's flexible farm price support
program will pass in the final days
of the session.
Knowland said that in addition
to the bills named by the Presi
dent he thinks Congress will pass
some other important legislation.
One the President did not name
in listing those still in front of
the Senate, as he phrased it, is
the bill to revise the atomic en
ergy law. It passed the House Mon
day and the Senate Tuesday night
after a two-week tussle which the
White House termed a filibuster
by opponents. Yesterday the House
sent it to conference to resolve
major differences in the two ver
sions.
Except for some of the antisub
versive bills, none the President
listed still remains to pass the
House. Leaders there say they
could could adjourn Saturday, as
originally planned, if the Senate
were caught up.

Navy Force
To Remain
Near Asia
WASHINGTON Wl Weighty
U. S. naval striking power will re
main in Southeast Asia waters for
some time despite abandonment of
the search for survivors of the
British airliner shot down by Chi
nese Red fighters last week.
1 Three of the four fleet aircraft
carriers west of Hawaii are now
in the South' China Sea area and
will remain there, the Navy says,
to continue their training exercises
and be ready for any new eventual
ity. REPORTS
Planes from two of the big ships,
the Philippine Sea and Hornet,
were reported Wednesday night. to
have completed their search for
survivors or wreckage of the Com
munist attack on, an unarmed Brit
ish airliner off Red-held Hainan
last week. Carrier-based planes
shot down two Red Chinese planes
which interfered. A third carrier,
the Tarawa, is now in Sublc Bay,
the U. S. Navy base north of Man
ila in the Philippines.
A shift of naval strength from
the Japan-Korea area to waters
near Indochina had started in
April. The Navy said then some
ships had been diverted from the
7th Fleet In Northwest Pacific wa
ters to the south for "fair weather"
training exercises. That was in the
period when policy makers were
considering whether to go to the
aid of the French in Indochina.
AIR INCIDENTS
It was only after the British air
liner incident that the Navy dis
closed that the ships were under
Adm. W. A. Phillips, commander
of the! 1st Fleet with headquarters
at San Diego, Calif. Phillips, the
Pentagon also disclosed, has been
operating under direct orders from
Washington, .
The assembling of three carriers
m the comparatively narrow seas
between the Philippine Islands and
the mainland coat' of' -Southeast
Asia left only one carrier, the
Boxer, In the 7th Fleet in Japan.
Ike Signs KF
Jet Base Bill
Mayor Paul Landry this morn
ing described President Elsen
hower's signing of a bill authoriz
ing (837,000,000 worth of military
construction through the nation as
"a step closer in the actual re
activation of the Klamath Munici
pal Airport as a Jet interceptor
base."
The president's authorization In
cludes the local project and an
air base construction project at
Portland.
Congress, so far, has not ap
propriated the necessary funds to
do the work.
The senate appropriations com
mittee has recommended approp
riations of the necessary money
($4,127.00) for tmmedlete con
struction. Work will start as soon
as funds are actually appropriated.
Planned as a connecting link In
the Northwest air defense pro
gram, the fighter-interceptor base,
when completed, will be manned
by approximately 95 officers, 660
enlisted men and 80 civilians.

Conservative
Over British
LONDON VP) A serious Con
servative party rift over Britain's
Suez Canal Zone pact with Egypt
handed the Laborite opposition a
tempting chance today to force the
resignation of Prime Minister
Churchill. It was doubtful the So
cialists would seize the chance.
The test comes In a House of
Commons vote tonight on Church
ill's motion demanding Parlia
ment's approval of the agreement
to pull Britain's 83,000 troops out
of the strategic VJanai z-one.
Fire Brings
Out Rattlers
GRANTS PASS Wl' A 200-acre
forest and brushland fire was
brought under control here Wed
nesday night, but Just as four fire
fighters thought the excitement
was over they found out It was
Just beginning.
The same fire that had taken
them to the top of a hill had also
driven a host of rattlesnakes up
there. It was dark by that time
and the four didn't know which
way to step without landing on a
rattler.
So they didn't step at all. They
stood still for an hour. They said
they were prepared to stand there
all night, but fortunately tney naa
a walkie-talkie with them. They
radioed for help, and eventually
another firefighter came up with
lights and led them down to safety.
The four were Bill Pope, a fire
warden, and three youths, Chuck
Dnllas, John Eyers and Glendell
Wardlaw, all of Grants Pass.
The fire started near railroad
tracks 1 Vi miles west of Grants
Pass, and for a time threatened
the homes of Mrs. E. M. Radcliffe
and Mr. and Mrs. George Ander
son, The homes were saved and
the fire controlled about 9 p.m.
The railroad tracks were dam
aged, however, and a section crew
had to replace some rails.
Party Angry
Suez Treaty
A group of 40 rebellious Con
servatives, angered at seeing an
other bit of Britain's dwindling em
pire crumble away, have served
notice they will vote against the
government,
MAJORITY
With only a nominal Conserva
tive majority of 20 votes In the
625-member House, Churchill thus
was in the uncomfortable position
of having to depend on his Socialist
opponents for the support neces
sary to put his policy across.
The ticklish situation in Com
mons was one of several troubles
currently plaguing the old warrior
who has yet shown no Inclination
to heed the urging of his wife and
doctors that he retire.
In the House of Lords there was
an almost unprecedented scene
last night as Lord Reading, min
ister or state for foreign affairs,
set forth the government's position
in support or the Sues agreement.
Angered peers, who normally sup
port the government, complained
they had no time to study the pact.
They became silent only after the
house leader. Lord Salisbury, one
of Churchill's closest advisers,
withdrew the request,
HARASSED
Churchill was harassed also by
a Cabinet shakeup following the
resignation of two of his Cabinet
ministers. A third also announced
he had submitted his resignation,
oui mere was no indication wneth-
er It would be accepted.
ADroad, Greece served notice
she would bring her demand for
Cyprus before the United Nations
despite Britain's decision to grant
the colony a constitution that would
advance It nearer to self-rule. The
Churchill government served no
tice yesterday Britain plans to
hold on to the fortress Island In
the Mediterranean, to which she
pinna to shift troops from the
Suez.
Laborite members of Commons
were thoroughly enjoying the Con
servatives' dilemma but they kept
their plans to themselves.
SOCIALISTS
Most observers thought the So
cialists could not vote Churchill out
on tho Suez Issue without compro
mising their own principles. The
official policy of the Labor party
has long been In favor of pulling
British troops out of the Canal
Zone.
Themselves badly split between
the moderate followers of former
Prime Minister Clement Attlee and
the leftist rebels led by Aneurin
Bevan, the Laborltes also would
run the risk of a sound trouncing
In the general election which would
follow a government Ian.
Attlee was reported to have ad
vised his colleagues they could not
conscientiously reluse Churchill
vole of confidence.
Grass Fire
Burns Hill
A grass fire that started about
2 p.m. Wednesday afternoon,
blackened the hill above Pacific
Terrace.
Fanned by a stiff breeze and
creating a draft of Ita own, the
blaze went from the bottom to
Die top of the hill in a matter
of minutes.
Before lire trucks could tra
verse the steep grade with tanks
of water, the fire Jumped the
road atop the hill and started
down the eastern slope.
Two trucks from the city, two
from OTI, two from KFPA and
one from Klamath County helped
bring the blaze under control.
An estimated 100 acres was
burned over with no damage re
sulting except a few lence posts
that were burned along the top
of the hill.
Reds Refuse
To Act On
State Note
WASHINGTON Wl Red Chtaa
has rejected by refusing even
to consider twin United States
protests against Communist fight
er attacks on British and Ameri
can planes off Hainan Island.
The State Department announced
Thursday that official word of the
Red rebuff has been received
from the British government
which acted as intermediary. The
department asserted:
"The situation will not be per
mitted to rest there."
Press Officer Henry Suydam,
who made the statement for the
department, did not disclose what
further steps may be contem
plated. Suydam said Ambassador Wtnth
rop Aldrich at London reported
he was informed at the British
Foreign Office that the American
protest had not been accepted,
NOTES RETURNED
The Chinese Foreign Office even
returned the protest notes, in this
case designated as "aide-memoires",
to the British.
The Chinese Communists took
the position that the affair of the
British plane was a matter of
proper concern for the British gov
ernment, but that the attack on
the American carrier aircraft was
just what they had claimed in press
statements the result of a "viola
tion" of Chinese territory.
A British airliner was shot down
July 23 and three American cltl
tens were lost. On July 26 two
U.S. carrier planes searching the
areas for survivors were attacked
by two Chinese Communist air
craft. The Americans returned the
fire and shot down the Red planes.
U.S. REQUEST
The State Department an
nounced Tuesday that the United
states had asked the British gov
ernment to make vigorous protest
against the "barbarous and law
less assault" on the American
search -planes. The department
said the Incidents occurred over
international waters not Chinese
territory.
Suydam said that this is what
happened on the American pro
test: -
Humphrey Trevelyan, the rank
Ing British diplomat at Felping,
acting on Instructions from Lon
don, presented it to Chang Han
Fu, vice minister of foreign ' at
fairs In the Communist regime. ..
RED REFUSAL
The Communist official promptly
told Trevelyan that he could not
accept the protest.
"The reason for his position,"
Suydam said, "was that the shoot
ing down of the civilian aircraft was
a matter between the Chinese and
British governments and none of
our -concern despite the fact that
three American lives were lost In
this assault,
"On the later Incident, the Chi
nese read to the British charge
d'affaires (Trevelyan) and handed
to him, versions of the attack on
the two carrier planes which had
been contained in press statement
and broadcast on Felping radio."
Senate Votes
Against China
voted fll-0 Thursday to oppose the
entry of Communist China to the
United Nations.
The chamber wrote into the 13,
100,000,000 foreign authorization
bill an amendment calling on the
President to outline to Congress
foreign policy moves that might
follow admission of the Pelptng
regime to the International organ
ization over American opposition.
The action came after senators
had defeated, 67-33, an amendment
oy Ben. uapenari (K-ina w re
quire that 750 million dollars of
the new foreign aid funds be In
the form of loans rather than
grants. i
Sen. Knowland (Calif), the GOP
leader, then called up the anti-
Red China proposal, reiterating
the stands Congress previously
had taken against U.N. member-
snip for the Communists.
Sheriff Warns
KF Merchants
Klamath County merchants were
warned by the sheriff's office
Thursday to beware of "grab and
run" safe robbers who have made
off with four strong boxes in the
past month.
Deputy Sheriff Dal Reed said I
theft of safes has become big bus
iness in Oregon In recent months.
Ho urged operators of business
establishments not to have their
safes in a conspicuous place
where they can be easily seen
from the street.
A prominently displayed safe Is
an Invitation for thieves to cart
i. away," Reed said. "There is
no question but what organized
gangs that specialize in the theft of
sales are working in Oregon."
Business establishments which
have lost safes in Klamath County
are Jonesey's Tavern, Dairy: Wo
cus Tavern, Wocus: Sycan Store,
Bly, and the Claude H, Davis
Floor Coverings & Window Shade
House, Klamath Falls. None of
the safes have been recovered. The
four strongboxes contained appro)
lmately 3000,
