CHICAGO GRAIN CHICAGO W Grains churned about nervously without setting any definite trend on the board of trade Friday. Prices moved lower at the start. Around mid-diiy a rally got under way, led by soybeans and wheat. Best prices could not be held, how ever. Several soybean futures dropped back below the previous close. In general, wheat and rye were stronger than the rest of the mar ket, largely on prospects of ship ments to European countries suf fering from recent Danube River floods. Feed grains had a weak undertone throughout the session. Wheat closed a-I !i higher, Sept 2.12 !i-!4; corn lower, Sept 1.63 !4-V oats a, lower to 'i higher.

Carter Freed By Jury Vote Tobe Carter, 67-year-old Pelican City millwright, was found not guilty to contributing to the de linquency of a minor, Thursday at 10 p.m. by a circuit court Jury that had deliverated seven hours. Circuit Judge Ralph M. Kolman of Oregon City, who was presid ing here, immediately released a $2,500 bond which the defendant bad posted. The Carter case was the first criminal matter tried in Klamath County since District Attorney Frank Alderson filed motions with the state supreme court disquali fying Circuit Judge David R.

She said the girls sold Carter some candy minis but did not enter the house. Thirteen residents of Pelican City and Keno appeared as char acter witnesses for Carter. They told' the jury that Carter had a good moral reputation but that girl who accused htm. had a bad reputation. Judge Holman returned to Ore gon oity Friday morning.

TOKYO I Nine years' ago Japan surrendered. Today the dazed, defeated nation of 1945 has been spectacularly rebuilt and is tied economically and militarily to Its former eneirjy, the United States. While the scars of a devastating war have been almost entirely erasejj, the island empire Is al most broke. The United States is gravely concerned. Relations with the United States are delicate. Nine years ago this Sunday, Em peror Hirohlto broadcast Japan's surrender in a quavering, high pitched voice. Japan was shat tered. The vast empire had col lapsed like a soap bubble. More than 40 of Japan's cities were wrecked, two by atomic bombs. Millions of Japanese In rags roamed in apathy in the rums. LANDING Tf the handful of U.S. soldiers who landed gingerly a few days later could have Jumped the years and seen the Japan of 1954 they would have called it a miracle. Japanese walking the streets or working on farms and in the fish ing villages look well fed and healthy. Stores are crammed with attractive goods. But the prosperous facade hides a deep economic illness inevitable in a nation shorn of its overseas conquests and forced to support a population half as large as that of k.'ito'.Yi1 , -Ni iiil nft mum, in MUNICIPAL COL'RT Thomas Horn, vagrancy, $100 and days.

This la 0M to slow negotiations over the reparations Japan Is to pay the Philippines, Burma and Indonesia Yoshida's administration Is set by growing criticism aimed both at him and at the UnilM States. The steady stream of critt cism of the United States in press and radio suggests U.S. Influence in Japan may be at its lowest ebb since the war. The Japanese are Just as critl. cal of the Soviet bloc and the Com. munlst party in Japan has little influence. But a trend tom "neutrals" in the manner of in. dia is apparent. A storm has swirled about Yc shida. The left and right wings of the Socialist party accused him at covering up the shipbuilding brib ery scandals. They demanded he quit. SOCIALISTS The right wing socialists calles for peace treaties with both Red China and Russia. There is much hope in Japan that co-existence with the Red nations is possible. A heavy strain on U.S.-Japan relations this year was the acci dental dusting of 23 fishermen In the U.S. hydrogen bomb tests in the central Pacific in March. The incident boiled to mammoth proportions. Japan the only nation ever to be atom bombed, is touchy about the big bombs. Slow U.S. apologies .and a statement by t congressman that the fishermen might have been "spying" on the tests did not help- matters. The Communists have missed none of this and have combined attacks on Yoshida with propagan da designed to woo Japan. Hot. ever; the outpourings of sweetness upon Peiping and Moscow has bad little effect as yet. Despite all the stresses, the United States Is Japan's best cus tomer. Its Army, Navy and Air Force remains under a treaty agree ment to defend the home islands. The United States spends Import ant money here. (e a turn at the our big summer wheel deal!
