FRIDAY. AUGUST 15. 1958 IIERALD AND NEWS. KLAMATH FALLS. OREGON PAGE FIVE Solon Says World Power Balance Shifts To Reds WASHINGTON (API - Sen. iperior to the United States in their John F. Kennedy (D-Mass) says me worm balance of power is shifting sharply in the Soviet Union's favor because of big So viet gains in missile power. He told the Senate last night the deterrent ratio might shift so heavily as to encourage the Soviets to attack the United States in an effort to "take a short cut to world domination." Kennedy's remarks drew bitter criticism from Sen. Homer F. Capehart (R-Ind) and other Re publican senators, whi decried the references to Soviet superior ity over American military might. Capehart, his voice booming, said Kennedy had mentioned 35 to Sfl times that the Soviets were su- United States mainland. 1 Having lured much light indus try to the sunny island, Munoz said the tendency now is toward heavier industry to provide more jobs to balance the economy and fight poverty. One of the principal attractions has been tax exemption and in earlier days low wage scales. The latter are rising. Does Puerto Rico, with its ex emption from the federal income tax and its tax exemptions for in dustry, steal industry from the mainland? The governor contends it does not. Islanders pay a common wealth income tax. As for plants deserting the Unit ed States and moving to Puerto Iuco, he says: We have a delib erate policy that no tax exemption will be granted to a plant mov ing out of another location. I wouldn't sign an authorization un less that were so." defense effort. Such remarks, he said, were coming close to giving aid and comfort to the enemy. Lapehart leaped in with his criticism of Kennedy while the Senate was in the throes of a fur ious debate over reports that the Pentagon was studying conditions under which the country might surrender in an atomic war. During the snarl Canehart and Sen. Everett Dirksen iR-lll pro posed closing the galleries to the press and public. Democratic op position, however, quelled the move. Capehart contended public de bate was an invitation to the So viet Union to attack America. Maybe I'm wrong," he said. "throw me out of the Senate if you will. Maybe I have only a thimble full of brains as one sen ator said. But this gives aid and comfort to Pravda i Soviet Com munist newspaper). tamer, capehart had an ex change with Sen. Richard Russell D-Ga) in which Russell said the the Indiana senator was building a straw man and "anyone with a thimble full of brains" would recognize it as such. The change occurred during discussion ot the surrender study report. Kennedy, in his speech, said America was approaching a peril period 10 to 1864 because of the possibility of the country's losing its eifective nuclear deter rent. To achieve world domination. he said, the Soviet Union might be willing to bomb the United States even at the risk of incurring dev astation in its own homeland. "Let no one think, therefore, that a Soviet attack, inadvertent or otherwise, is impossible be cause of the H-bomb damage we would still hope to rain upon them," said Kennedy. I he United States must push its while at the same time probing for Soviet weaknesses, chiefly among the satcilite nations. There is no point now in con solidating the Red bloc with our talk of massive retaliation," Ken nedy told the Senate. "Now we must seek ways of dividing it Puerto Rico Enjoys Status SAN JUAN, P. R. (AP) State hood for Alaska is not altering the plans or aspirations of Gov. Luis Munoz Mann for Puerto Rico. "We're not on that road at all," Munoz says. "In our status of commonwealth, we are a unique creation within the American sys tem. "The people here, by their vot ing, preier this. Our common wealth can be improved. Nothing is perfect. But our position is not a way station toward either state hood or independence." 7 Munoz spoke optimistically in an interview of the future of his island homeland. He has seen Puerto Rico trans formed from an "unsolvable" eco nomic problem as congression al investigators once described it to an expanding industrial econ omy with ever-rising per capita income. cession has been felt in Puerto;?,, P1R1 Tih .a11 -Sp.eed' jijiu, uiil nut tta muni eta uil Ulc Dad Of Seven Begins Life As Free Man After Prison Police Free Businessman NAHA, Okinawa (AP) Oki nawan police last night freed an American businessman from labor unionists who had held him cap tive in his own office for an hour nd a half. Police arrested 20 unionists who had formed a human wall around William Baxter, formerly of San Francisco, who operates an auto sales agency in Naha. Shortly after, 40 more scream ing unionists were jailed when they demonstrated at a police sta tion to protest the earlier arrests. , Kamejiro Senaga, ex-mayor of Naha and head of the extreme left Okinawa Peoples party, led the demonstrators but was not arrested. Baxter had obtained a court or der forbidding unionists entering his premises to organize his cm nloves. ' Baxter said he obtained the or der after nearly three weeks of pressure from the union, including several earlier periods of impris onment in his office. Soraya Flees Bull Arena SAN SEBASTIAN, Spain (UPI) Vacationing Princess Soraya, for mer wife of the shah of Ir a n, fled a San Sebastian bullring Thursday when Matador Antonio Ordonez was seriously gored by a bull he was killing in her honor. With blood streaming from the open wound Ordonez remained in the ring long enough to kill the bull with one powerful sword thrust. He was granted the bull's ear for his bravery and artistry. While being carried from the ring Ordonez gestured to Soraya with the ear. It was too much for the shaken princess and she left the box where she was seated with friends and fled the ring. Ordonez was taken to an in firmary where doctors said his wound was "extremely serious." ' JEFFERSON, Ga. (UPI) The two-year nightmare James Fulton Foster endured in death row for a murder committed by another man was over today, and the 40-year-old father of seven began life anew as a free man. A directed verdict of innocent in a murder charge against Foster ended a climactic day of court ac tion that saw a former Illinois po liceman and a Georgia bootlegger draw life imprisonment for the crime. Disposal of the three cases in rapid-fire order ended four days of proceedings in the rustic small town courthouse about a mile from the spot where grocer Charles Drake was shot to death when he tried to fight off a bandit on the night of July 19, 1956. The windup began when a 12- man jury, which had reported it self hopelessly deadlocked after about nine hours of deliberation returned a verdict of guilty against car dealer-bootlegger A.D, Allen, the Jurors chose a life sen tence for Allen. Then Charles P. (Rocky) Roths child, former lawman whose con fession on July 4 unlocked the door to freedom for Foster, en tered a plea of guilty and asked lor the mercy of the court. Judge Maylon B. Clinkscales sentenced him to life. Then came Foster's new trial. Sheriff John B. Brooks identified Rothschild's signed confession and after Foster took the stand brief ly, Clinkscales told the jury that under this evidence a verdict of not guilty must be returned. "Since August of 1956, I have been under the shadow of death an ordeal which it doesn't seem possible that -a man could go through," said Foster, a house painter from Greer, S.C. "I knew that some day, some how the truth would come out and it has. My mind is at rest." He then said a short prayer and stepped down. Doolittle Named To Space Board Jewel Firm Undaunted NEW YORK (UPI) Tiffany's remained undaunted today in the face of a brazen theft of gems from its display windows, There were reports the Fifth Avenue ultra-fashionable jewelry shop would henceforth use imita tion gems in its sidewalk windows in view of Sunday's burglary, inl which thieves smashed open two display windows and hauled off SEATO Facing Challenge That May Hamper Action LOS ANGELES (AP) Gen. James H. Doolittle has been named board chairman of Space jewcls valucd at $1T1500 devoted to the study of missile and space problems. The laboratories, now a division of Ramo-Wooldridge Corp., will become a separate corporation in the near future, and uoolitlle win assume his new position Jan. 1. The famed flying hero, who led the first bombing raid on Tokyo during World War II, will be in charge of the largest concentra tion of scientists in the nation working exclusively on missiles and space technology, Ramo-Wool dridge said. ,By K. C. THALER LONDON (LTD SEATO. the Southeast Asia Treaty Organiza tion, has been confronted with a severe challenge that may seri ously hamper Us freedom ol ac tion against Communist subver sion in the treaty area. The challenge has come from SEATO's secretary general, Nai Pote Sarasin. who declared sub versive activities the responsibility of a member country s own na tional forces. Sarasin, a former provisional prime minister of Thailand who is on an olticial visit ot Australia. was reported from Canberra today to have teamed political coups a domestic affair of the country in which they occur, which could not involve other members. It appears this interpretation would limit SEATO's right of in tervention, for instance, in the event of a Communist-engineered or backed coup in a member country. The issue has been spotlighted by the recent Baghdad coup which confronted the Baghdad Pact na tions with the crucial question of whether or not to intervene Iraq when a rebel regime over threw the Feisal government. The Baghdad nations came to the conclusion at a meeting in London a fortnight ago against in tervention because the rebel re gime was considered to have the suDDort of the people of Iraq and because it was neia to oe in niii control of the country. Also it at once pledged itself to honor exist ing international commitments. DANM00RE HOTEL 1217 S.W. Morrison St. Portland, Oregon All Transient Guciri. All those who come return.

As curious pedestrians flustered about Thursday, the store unveiled Us news display and new windows containing diamond encrusted jewelry val ued at $131,000. Sarasin now reportedly holds the view that a political coup in SEATO member country, in principle, would not involve other members. Other member nations could not take action unless they were asked by the threatened govern ment. Even then, they would not be obliged to go to its aid under the treaty arrangements, he stat- eu, accuruing 10 ine repuris luuay. Some observers argued that if, for example, a Communist coup should remove the ruling regime in a SEATO country by a light ning stroke, the "threatened gov ernment" would no longer have a chance to invoke SEATO assist ance. There would be, in this interpre tation no room for SEATO inter vention, even if the ousted regime could have invoked it. These views have been received with considerable interest in gov ernment quarters. Britain appears to agree with the broad outlines of this interpre tation of tEA10 s Thai secretary general. A Foreign Office spokesman let it be understood that he had "no quarrel" with this viewpoint. But views within the treaty or ganization were expected to be di- vided. Some of the Western SEATO na tions were expected to accept the interpretation only with considera ble reservations. The text of the treaty itself is hazy on this point, according to expert opinion.
