. " 1 U t i i in The 1 jSg) X T B FRANK JENKINS i !,The Russian government official ly announces that It has exploded ; hydrogen bomb. The announce 'ment was made yesterday by Ni klta Kruschev in the course of a .. speech In the Indian city of Bang - alore. The Moscow government de aerioes the oomb as the most .. Mwerlul of all such types or ex- plosives, having the force of a minion ions 01 im. Crain of salt note; - v A year ago last March the Unit l'ed States tried out a hydrogen device which, according to unot- ..' flcial estimates, had a force of more than FIFTEEN million tons of TNT. . . You never can tell about these ' tommunists when tliey start brag- - sing about having the biggest and the beit. ' ""i' "I So much for the statement about '.v Russia's new bomb. Let's now - take r look at the circumstances in. which it was made. 'i Kruschev Is-in India. He's try Ing to talk the Indians (meaning the ruleis and the people 01 In dia) into thumbing their noses at i- the United States ana comuig over . Into the communist camp. The ooulation of India is Just under 400 millions, which, would be a lot of useful cannon fodder lor. conv munist purposes. S Tellhig the Indians about the ex elosioh. he said: - - 1 "Our engineers and our scien tists wanted to see II their calcu lations were correct. Their calcu lations WERE correct. They sue- , eeeded with the minimum of ,'-' atomic energy In making the max imum explosion of one million tons ", of TNT. What he meant was this: "See what a big. club we've got. You'd - oetter come over on our side. J He then added: '-We will NEVER BE THE FIRST to use such weapons. ' .'.' I "We will be very glad if bombs - ire never exploded on cities and . tillages. Let them lie (unused) and influence the nerves of those .(meaning the Americans) who . would start a new war. - "Because " - "If thev start a war f "They will receive a proper an 4 Bffer." 1 ' . j Wouldn't it be wonderfui If we J tf,niili T4F.T.TJT.VT,? n. (-nmmunist? ' If so, we could breathe a long ; ana nappy sign oi reuei, saying to ourselves with Joy ineffable: - "What a hricrht , and snlendid world is opening up tor our chil dren now. tnai tne .maeous men ace of nucleaf"waffare lias been hanlcharl " Because' WE know that WE will , never drop a nuclear nomn on somebody else except in tswnu RETALIATION. - Unfortunately. Nobody can believe a commu nist. One of the tenets of com munism Is that a good communist nays at any particular moment whatever may seem at tne time to be uselul to the advancement of communism. Having said it. he FORGETS it at any time when it may seem that forgetfulness may be useful to the advancement of the com munist cause. '. Getting back to Kruschev, he vowed solemnly in a speech in Bombay, which was delivered just ahead of his speech in Bangalore, that NOTHING WILL EVER CHANGE THE SOVIETS FROM A COURSE TOWARD WORLD PEACE. In this case, he was speaking with what our American Indians i who were called Indians because Columbus believed he had landed on the shores of India) call a double tongue. What he meant was that the communist idea of the way to bring world peace Is for commit nism to conquer the world. !

Ike Makes New Plea To Politicos GETTYSBURG I President Eisenhower joined ' Democratic Senator George of Georgia Satur day in urging the nation to halt its 1956 campaign battling at the wa ter's edge. In what amounted to a new plea to keep foreign policy out of poll tics, the President endorsed the following' statement by the chair man of the Senate Foreign Rela tions Committee: ' MUST ASSURE ' "We must assure the world that we are capable of having a non partisan American foreign policy and that regardless of who wins or loses in 1956 our foreign program will go on substantially as is." Murray Snyder, assistant White House press secretary, told Inquir ing newsmen the chief executive had read and approved the state ment of George, which was made to The New York Herald Tribune. Snyder was asked whether "the President feels that Adlal Steven- son had given support to this -thes is of a bipartisan foreign policy. Snyder said he hadn't asked the President about -that. - - A reporter noted that Stevenson, who opposed Elsenhower for the presidency- in 1952 and wants to run again, had said recently that American foreign policy is worse off than at any time since the Korean war, ' i "I might add," Snyder said, "that the President has sought to conduct the nation's foreign policy without partisanship and he has frequently expressed his apprecia tion for the statesmanlike cooper ation given the administration by Sen. George in foreign affairs." The press assistant remarked that "certainly" his words were spoken with Eisenhower'? advance knowledge. SMALL CHANCE There appeared small chance, however, that foreign policy ac tually will be kept out of the cam paign. Former President "Truman said at Seattle only Saturday that the Republicans "put foreign poli cy into the political arena after Mr. Roosevelt and I had kept it out for years. "Now the Democrats are in a position to make the most. of it and I am sure they will. The pres ent administration's mistakes must be made an issue of the next campaign." Store Hours Klamath Falls stores will be" open every Friday evening un til Christmas. Starting on Mon day,', December 19, the stores will remain open every evening until Christmas. 'Mis Terror. sts They had failed to seize any police arms and left behind some of their own weapons a machine gun, and American-type automatic pistol and a tear-gas pistol. Police, in pointing out the bar racks arsenal as the target, said the raiders were members of the Irish republican army (IRA), an extremist group outlawed in both Northern Ireland, which is a part of Britain, and in the Irish repub lic. The IRA demands union of the six counties of Northern Ireland, wim tne repuunc. In Dublin, there was a denial the IRA was Involved in the raid. The denial was made in a letter handed to Dublin newspapers over the signature of D. MacDiarmida. who Identified himself ' as the IRA's adjutant general. A few hours after the raid, a party of men called at the home of a doctor at Scotstown, south of the border, and asked for a death certificate for a man outside in a car. The doctor said he examined the body and found recent bullet wounds had caused death. He re fused to Issue the certificate with out notifying the coroner. The men left after he treated one of them for slight wounds. - Irish police and soldiers began searching burial grounds along the border area, believing the raiders would try to bury the dead man somewhere quickly. The police casualty In the bar racks fight was Constable George Knowles. He was dug out. of the bomb, wreckage suffering from bul let wounds.

The helicopter, carrying four sea men at a time, whisked the men to shore after they and their 2.-848-ton ship had been pounded by high winds and blinding srfow for nearly 30 hours. The vessel grounded early Fri day on the rocky north coast of Cape Breton Island In the Gulf of St. Lawrence. In making the rescue, the heli copter's pilot, Lt. Cmdr.

The ref uge - overlaps a considerable por tion of the Klamath Project. "There is' no plan to lease land.-, other than those already under cul tivation," MKay said.

It was the most de tailed and explicit announcement of a nuclear explosion the Soviet Un ion has made so far.
