Something's cooking at Yalta
again.
The big shots of communism are
ganging up there. Tito of Yugoslav
ia and Khrushchev and Bulganin of
Russia have had their heads to
gether for days, and they have
just been joined by Premier Ernos
Geroe of Hungary.
Western diplomats are saying the
gathering is concerned with DEEP
IDEOLOGICAL CONFLICTS within
the Soviet bloc of nations.
What's biting them?
This is my (admittedly, optimis
tic idea of it:
They are worried by the knowl
edge that communism is of itself
SO FOUL that in time it must
fall of the weight of its own foul
ness. A word more on Yalta.
It rates as Russia's top winter
resort. It's where the Russians
who can afford it come in the win
ter season to escape the cold. It
is located on the southern tip of
1 the Crimean peninsula that sticks
out into the Black Sea. Its latitude
is about that of Fargo North Da
kota. .
Some winter resort!
' Former German Grand Admiral
Doenitz (a top bracket member of
Hitler's Nazi gang) has just been
released from the Spandau war
crimes prison after serving a ten
year sentence as a war criminal.
He refuses to answer newsmen's
questions as to whether he will
seek a new political career
Germany. He merely answered:
"Such a man as I can have only
one task to remain silent and
feel his way back into the world."
About all that can be said for
Doenitz is that He took the wrong
road and has suffered for it. Suf
fering sometimes bring out good
qualities in a man if he had
any good qualities to sjbrt with.
At any rate, Doenitz's future in
Germany is up to the Germans,
We have no business butting in.
Buttinskies are always resented,
What the world needs above
everything else at this moment in
history are leaders with courage.

Both of them have chosen the
HARD WAY. Adenauer has stub

wands. In every crisis, he has told
the people of West Germany that
their only way out of their troubles
is to work and save. Under his

President Eisenhower, facing the
political fact that loss of the big
farm states can spell defeat for
him, had the eourage to veto a
farm bill that was based on bigger
subsidies and more handouts from
the treasury which would have
increased farm surpluses and
has hewed to the line that the only
hope for American agriculture is
to get rid of the surpluses that
hang over the markets of the fu
ture like a dark thundercloud. To
do that, he says, we must make
overproduction less attractive rath

political courage.
Timber Still
Leading Item
PORTLAND Wl The Stanford
Research Institute, after study of
Oregon's industrial potential, re
ported Saturday that timber re
sources will continue for many
years to be the basis of the state's
industrial growth.
The report, prepared for the
Oregon Development Commission,
said that pulp, paper, paperboard
and cellophane appear to offer the
best opportunities for industrial
expansion.
Also predicted were: Slow but
continued expansion in the food
processing industry, "challenging
opportunities in livestock and
meat processing, and continued
opportunities for small industries
to serve local and regional mar
kets. The report cited two major
needs:
Additional study on imports
since the state imports 90 per cent
of the manufactured commodities
it consumes.
An educational program to dis
pel misconceptions that Oregon Is
a frontier land with a cold and
unfavorable climate.
The report based its prediction)
of an increase in pulp and paper;
manufacture on figures showing
that Oregon has 29 per cent of
the nation's softwood timber sup
ply but now produces only about
4 per cent of the country's wood
pulp.

After returning to the car with

Palmquist was made to drive the

In the meantime Palmquist made

told police of the incident when
they arrived on the scene shortly
thereafter.
The police hurried (0 the Palm

gunman, wearing green gloves, did
not harm them beyond tying them
up and gagging them, Mrs. Palm
quist and each of the two children
were made to lie down in separate
rooms of the house.
The victims could furnish police
with no clues other than that the
men appeared young, were of
medium build, and were masked
with material which appeared to
be part of a T-shirt.
Immediately after being notified,
the state police set up complete
road blocks leading in and out of
Klamath Falls and all available

forces began a thorough check of
hotels, motels, and other places
where the suspects might be located.-

men ordered soft drinks, remained
at the place for nearly an hour,
and drove away about 11 p.m. The
men wore reported wearing dark
clothing.

that similar kidnap-robheries oc

Delta Ving
Atom Plane
Hits In Fog

LONDON I A huge delta
winged plane, one of Britain's
secret atom bomb carriers,
crashed and exploded in fog and
rain at London Airport Monday
before horrified dignitaries wel

Hair-triggered ejector seats,
touched off just before the four
jet Vulcan nosed toward the
earth, saved the lives of Air Chief

and Squadron Leader D. R. How

Four bodies were recovered
from the smoking, flaming wreck
age which littered the airport's
"Lucky No. 7" runway for 200
yards. Broadhurst and Howard
received minor injuries in their
fall of about 300 feet. Parachutes
eased them to the ground.

sending out the only survivors.
And then the big plane whomped
down.
A company spokesman said that
as the bomber approached the
runway "it seems that it hit some
thing, possibly an obstruction. He
(the pilot) immediately turned his
engines on to full power in an
attempt to climb away but at this
point, although he gained some
height and went back into cloud,
he recognized that the aircraft
was out of control and, within
seconds, gave the order to aban

The spokesman said there were
no indications "whatsoever that
