1ST Raps Communists; John Birch Society LAS VEGAS. Nev. IUPI -Former President Harry S. Tru man Sunday night blasted Uie Communists as "a bet of damned liars" and the John Birch Society as "Ku Klux Klansmen without tlieir night shirts." Truman, in his usual peppery style when he deviated from a 16-page text, said "the Commu nists always make promises but they never keep them. People think they are easy to deal with because of all the promises. But they're nothing but a set of damned liars, they always have been and always will be. I wouldn't trust them across the 5treet." Ho said the Russians are "scared to death of the Chinese Communists who could overrun them at will. We want to keep them that way." Truman turned to the Birch Society a few minutes later in his 45-minute speech before an Anti-Defamation League 50th anniversary dinner at the Fla mingo hotel. "Birchers are nothing but Ku Klux Klansmen without their nightshirts. They should put their nightshirts on and we'll whip 'em like we whipped the Klan," he said. Turning once again to the Communist threat, he said "anybody who wants to over throw this great republic, he' got to fight me till hell freezes over. I'm hip on the subject." At one point, he whipped a small folded card from hli pocket and, waving it at the audience, told them they could Store Hit By Burglars Oregon State Police arc Inves tigating a burglary and an act . of vandalism that occurred in the South Suburban area during the weekend it has been report ed. The Shasta View Grocery, 4079 Shasta Way, was the tar get of burglars sometime be tween the hours of 7:15 p.m., Saturday, and 9 a.m., Sunday, when the store was looted of 20 cartons of candy and gum, ,22-caliher ammunition, knives, boor, film, eight cases of beer, $18 in coins, and various other items.

(UPD-Rain-soaked ground around an old open pit iron mine col lapsed Sunday burying a 16-ycar-old boy under tons of boul ders, dirt and mud. Police in this rugged northern corner of New Jersey said there was no chance the youth, Harry Van Dunk, of Mine Road, could have survived the land slide into the water-filled bot tom of the 100-foot pit. Two younger companions were luckier. They managed to scramble to safety when the slide started. The boys, Aaron Milligan, 11, and Randall Milli gan, 13, who are not related alerted authorities. All three were playing near Die mine when the ground start ed shifting. Firemen and other volunteers wore forced to delay efforts to reach Van Dunk's body after several new cave-ins at the 50 foot wide shaft. The mine is located in a wooded, area dotted with at least eight other abandoned mines. All are connected by underground shafts. Firemen started pumping water from ono of the other mines in an effort to lower the level in the one in which Van Dunk was en tombed. Police Chief Roy Van Tassel said the mines, all abandoned years ago, are owned by the Pittsburgh-Pacific Mine Co. of Ribbing, Minn. The firm sent a mining engineer to the scene to direct recovery operations. Workers wore to begin shor ing up the sides of the pit today and efforts to recover the body wcrq expected to start later in tho day or Tuesday. irl Held In Stabbing NEW YORK (UPD-An 18-year-old girl Is being held with out bail for a hearing Thursday in the fatal stabbing of her stepfather, a 250-pound profes sional boxer who knocked out former heavyweight champion Ezzard Charles in 1953. The victim was John Lee Storey, 35, known professional ly as Young Jack Johnson. Ac cording to police, Johnson's stcpduughlor, Bobbie Steploe, inflicted a fntal knife wound on the boxer In a family dispute late Saturday. Two officers, called to tho Johnson home in Queens to in vestigate a report of a distur bance, said they found Johnson and tho girl arguing In front of the house, with Johnson's wife Matilda attempting to keep the peace. Bobbie allegedly slipped Into the house and picked up a kitchen knife with a six-inch blade. Returning outside, she scuffled witli lier father and stabbed him in the chest, ac cording to police reports. The hulking Johnson, six feet three inches tall and 260 pounds, refused medical aid at the lime. Within minutes, he slumped to the street. He was dead when an ambulance arrived.

He outpointed Marty Marshall, tlte only conqueror of heavyweight champion Sonny Listen, and scored knockouts over Zora Fol lev and Charles. Klamath fain.

NEWS, Klamath Falls, Oregon 0000, -mivirrr Ti-;l8r'. r 1 1 Hff Denicotinized Solon Edits Smoking Book Bv DICK WEST WASHINGTON UPI) - Mrs. Maurinc Ncuberger, a denicoti nized Democrat from Oregon, lias written a book in which she attempts to convince people they should quit smoking. My interest in the book, called "Smoke Screen," is more or less academic, owing to the fact that I stopped smoking about 18 months ago. I was. however, intrigued by Mrs. Ncuberger's account of how she. a former pack-a-day smoker, broke the habit. In 1957, Mrs. Ncuberger began having fainting spells. The sec ond time she swooned, she cut her head as she fell. The doctor who treated her suggested that she 6top smoking, whereupon she picked up a pack of cigar- Firm Signs Labor Pact PITTSBURGH (UPI) - West inghouse Electric Corp. and the United Electrical Workers of America (UE) have reached argeement on a contract cover ing 6,000 employes in six loca tions.' The old contract ran out Oct. 14 but it was extended on a day-to-day basis as negotiations continued. A company spokesman said the agreement is similar to those signed earlier by the Fed eration of Weslinghousc Inde pendent Salaried Unions, the In ternational Union of Electrical Workers (IUE) and the Interna tional Brotherhood of Electrical Workers (IVEWi. The basic contract is for three years with a five-year agreement covering such bene fits as pensions, insurance and vacations.

The cigarettes, not the table. Mrs. Ncuberger never smoked again and, as far as I know, she never fainted again either. Now any method that works must be considered successful, but it seems to me that Mrs. Neuberger did it the hard way. A cut on the head probably is a higher price than most smok ers would be willing to pay. And flinging a pack of cigar ettes across the room will not by itself do the trick. Smokers who have tried that have told me they started smoking again as soon as they tidied up the place. Perhaps my ow n case history can serve as a guide for any one who might be seeking an easier system. I first made up my mind to quit smoking in 1942 when I was a private in the Army. My reso lution stemmed from a distaste for picking up butts along the company street. ' Shortly after that, however, I was sent overseas where ahsti nence was made more difficult by the fact Gls could buy cigar ettes for a nickel a pack. At those prices, a person can not alford not to smoke. For a time after the war. cer tain brands were in short sup ply and smokers were clamoring to get them. This aroused my competitive instincts with the result that 1 lilid in a supply that lasted until 1952. At thai point, I started the classic withdrawal pattern. I smoked cigars for a year and then I took up pipes. Thus by 1954 I was smoking cigarettes, cigars and pipes. In 1955 I gave up pipes and the next year I cut out cigars. This put me back to where I was in 1942 when I first decid ed to quit. f3 I .'lW.V i KLAMATH FALLS' NEWEST BEAUTY SHOP Civil Rights, Tax Cut Delayed As Congress Talks WASHINGTON UPH - Con gress took its Veterans Day re cess today with final action on civil rights and a tax cut still far away but with administra tion leaders talking about other legislative achievements. Democratic leaders are not feeling especially unhappy at the way things have been go ing, although they know that neither of the two priority items an $11 billion tax cut and civil rights bill will get through llie Senate this year. However, Congress runs for two years and both measures w ill go over to the second ses sion, starting in January. Sen ate Republican Leader Everett " ' Dirksen. III., said Sunday he Twisters, Rainfall Hit Florida By United Press International Twisters caused minor dam age Sunday but accompanied record rainfall in Florida. Four to five inches of rainfall were reported Sunday in the Tampa, Fla., area, already making it one of the wettest Novembers on record. Florida had had a dry year. A tornado at Punla Gorda, and two small twisters at Pa hokec and Wabasso, Fla., threatened Sunday but then di minished, doing small damage and causing no injuries. Missile testing base at Cape Canaveral was getting precipi tation that could give it one of the rainiest seasons in its his tory. New England and the eastern Great Lakes area, the northern plains and the north central Rockies all had scattered light rainfall. Northeastern New Eng land had cold drizzle mixed with light snow. In most of central United States and the west conditions were generally fair with tem peratures dipping below the nor mal mark and expected to stay that way for the next day or two. Some of the lowest tempera tures in the nation Sunday were Williston, N.D., 11, and Bis marck and Fargo, N.D., with 20. Highs were 88 at Burbank, Calif., and 85 at Tucson, Ariz. For the larger portion of the nation, fair weather was indi cated today with some cloudi ness and small temperature changes. Cooling was expected in the Great Lakes and central plains.

Dirksen said in a television interview with Rep. Harold C. Ostertag. R-N.Y.. that it had been a "rather fruitless Con gress in many respects." He blamed this primarily on tlie controversial nature of much of the proposed legislation. Democratic leaders are quick to point out some achievements of Congress this year. Safely passed and signed into law are two bills putting the government in a big way into the mental health fight.

Ine draft law was continued four years. A new law was passed assur ing equal pay for women who do the same work as men. Nobody has figured yet how to solve the farm surplus prob lem. Pending that, the first ses sion of the 88th Congress kept alive for two years a temporary program of payments to farm ers who hold down production of corn. Appropriations bills this year have come even slower than usual, but when the adjourn ment gavels have fallen the way will no doubht have been cleared for government spend ing of close to $100 billion in the current 12 months. And to stave off any bounc ing of Uncle Sam's checks, the legal ceiling on the national debt will have been lifted not once but three times during the year, to a record $315 billion.
