12 Survive Maiden Parachute Jumps urn. 1 Threw Out Luggage In Futile Attempt , COLUMBIA, S. C. (W — Twelve survivors of maiden parchute jumps refused to worry today about throwing away all their luggage in a futile attempt to save a $561,000 Cll9 Flying Boxcar. “I guess our gear is scattered over quite a few miles,” said Capt. Franklin Greenspan, of Pantoul. 111., pilot and commander on the flight from Chanute Air Force Base, 111., to Charleston AFB. S.C. Greenspan said crew members and passengers dumped 1,000 pounds of personal luggage in their attempt to keep the plane from losing altitude after one of the two engine conked out during a rain Monday night. "But we kept losing altitude at 1,000 feet a minute, and I gave the order to begin bailing out at 6.000 feet," he said. “This was the first time I had ever bailed out in 14 years of flying. “In fact, none of us had ever jumped before.” J crew members and eight airmsta passengers jumped in perfect order and none was hurt. They were confined to the Ft. Jackson, S.C., base hospital for observation, however. The plane crashed in a wooded area south of the Columbia Municipal Airport- A board of Air Force officers roped off to keep crowd away until investigators could seek the cause of the engine failure. “I can’t honestly answer that I was the last one out,” Greenspan rm Tonite, Wed., Thurs.

Barrett of the Columbia University graduate school of journalism today called on the State Department to “admit to an error and frankly reverse itself” on its policy of barring U.S. news* men from Red China. ' “If the State Department Won’t do so. the American press can force the issue in the courts,” Barrett wrote in a guest editorial in this week’s issue of The Saturday Review. . ' Barrett, who was an assistant secretary of state during the'Truman adminiakrution, said it was “time for a highest level clarifications of whettier the right of citizens to roam the globe and the obligations of the press to pursue news everywhere can be used as pawhs in a diplomatic chess game, however important the match.” He referred to Secretary of State John Fi >ter Dulles’ statement that , the ban? was imposed because the Communists are trying to “blackmail" th* United States by offering to fhee 10 captive Americans only if wi? send correspondents to ; Red China“What About Mr. Dulles’ agru--1 ment that' the Chinese. . .are handpicking correspondents in order to usd •’them as a channel for propaganda?” Barett asked. “Among those seeking and how offered’Chinese visas are some of the most respected in American journalism,” he wrote. r “They are the kind who are not « easily taken in by public figures here, let alone by Communists » abroad.” If you have something to sell or rooms for rent, try a Democrat Want Ad — they bring results.

James Carey Blasts Teamsters' Leader ; __.S--/Z . 4 Is Termed Traitor To Labor Movement CHICAGO tin — James B. Carey, a vice president of the AFL-CIO, Monday night blasted Teamsters Union President Dave Beck as "a traitor to the labor movement.” ' Carey, who also is head of the International Electrical Workers, attacked Beck and the Teamsters Union at a news conference before speaking to the United Paperworkers of America convention. “We won’t wait for Congress to clean up the labor movement,” Carey said. “We’ll do it ourselves.” A special Senate committee is »investigating the Teamsters. Beck currently is on an European tour. “If they (the Teamsters) don’t mend their ways, they're in danger of expulsion,” Carey said. “One corrupt international, or even one corrupt local, is one too many,” Carey said. In his speech before the convention, Carey said the labor movement faces an “unprecedented crisis” because some unions are ■ too weak or gave way to corruption. 7 “You can't depend on rack- • eteers to clean out other racketeers, all of them, must be fully and mercilessly exposed as the i loathesome disease carriers they t are and kept away from the la- ! bor movement.” He urged mat unions hand down - “swift and vengeful justice” to > those who flourish at the expense > of rank and file union members. ; Two Are Named On - Taylor Honor Roll r Suzanne Kuhn, daughter of Mr. 1 and Mrs. Carl Kuhn.

THE DECATUR DAILY DEMOCRAT, DECATUR, INDIANA

Put Pressure On Dave Beck To Hurry Home Secretary Os Labor Says Beck Will Not Be Named Delegate WASHINGTON (UP)—The Eisenhower administration put pressure on Teamster Union chief Dave Beck today to hurry home and be investigated. The move came as Beck was subjected to bitter attack by AFLCIO Vice President James Br Carey. who called him “a traitor to the labor movement.” Carey, at a press conference in Chicago Monday night, said if Beck’s Teamsters “don't mend their ways they’re in danger of expulsion” from the parent AFLCIO. Hearings Resume Today “One corrupt international — or even one corrupt local—is one too many,” Carey declared. The Teamsters union has been linked with gambling, vice and political influence in Oregon in-testi-mony before the Senate Rackets Investigating Committee. Hearings resume this afternoon. The administration's nudge to Beck came from Labor Secretary James P. Mitchell. He announced Monday night that Beck, now in Europe, will not be named to the U.S. delegation to an international labor conference in Germany. Mitchell noted pointedly that Beck, wanted by the Senate investigators for questioning, gave his prospective attendance at the conference next week as one reason for not rushing home to testify. Mitchell’s Action Praised Therefore, said the secretary, “I have decided not to nominate Mr. Beck as a member of the U.S. delegation” to the conference. Sen. Karl E. Mundt (R-SD), a committee member, praised Mitchell for a “cooperative attitude.” Mundt said he thinks the move will "bring to a head” the question of whether Beck will show up soon for quizzing. The rackets committee has been trying for some time to get Beck to testify concerning his personal finances and charges of vice and racket deals involving his blggest-in-the-nation union. AFL - CIO President George .Meany, who nominated Beck to attend the labor conference in Germany before the current Senate inquiry was launched, said he was “not surprised” at Mitchell’s action. . Meany told 9 reporters he will .try to find a substitute for Beck, but may not be able to obtain the nec- | essary security clearance before ; the conference in Hamburg, Germany, next week.

Unplanned Vacation To Anderson Pupils Schools Are Closed * By Power Failure ANDERSON, Ind. (UP) — About 10,000 school pupils received 4m unplanned vacation from school Monday afternoon when a connecting transformer of the Indiana & Michigan Electric Co. burned out, causing a power failure. The electrical failure cut off power to the pumps at the city waterworks, and the City Board of Health urged all residents to boil water for several hours before drinking. Waterworks Supt. Edgar Jones said there was danger of siphoning from tall buildings contaminating water in the rpain lines. Jones ordered all mains flushed through fire hydrants. The power failure also affected industrial plants and radio stations, but local hospitals switched to standby power and were not affected. 2 —7— ■ The power was restored in less than two hours, ......7, Telephone service was maintained by emergency power units during the failure.

Polio Victim Near ■ Death Eight Hours , 1 Three Iron Lungs Prove Defective * I MEMPHIS. Tenn. (UP)—A 24- , year-old polio victim stayed a few , gasps from death for eight hours Monday during a struggle between doctors and four successive iron lungs. Three of the iron lungs proved faulty and Robert Thorne, -kept alive by hand pumping, was "turning blue” when a brigade of rescuers finally got him and his borrowed lung safely to Baptist Hospital in a moving van. "He’s resting now,” Thorne’s father, William R. Thome, said early today. “The doctor gave him a sedative so he wotfld sleep. He is being fed through a tube in his nose to help him breathe.” Foncht For Breath For a polio victim paralyzed as badly as Thome, one transfer is a dangerous ordeal. But Thorne had to be moved back into his own leaking lung each time a new one broke down, because his own lung was easier to pump by hand. Each transfer, with Thorne fighting for breath, took two minutes. , ‘‘Right at the last he began growing pale and turning blue,” Thome’s father said. ‘‘He was extremely nervous, but he kept talking to us, telling us what he wanted.” The elder Thorne said he was : told that doctors will not know for possibly a day or so how seriously the former Army depot desk, ! a father of two children, was injured by the series of near suffocations. “They would put him in a new

lung, see that it wouldn’t work, then put him back into the lung that he used at home,” he said. Had Police Escort "They gave him I don’t know how many tanks of oxygen before they took him to the hospital. And there were four squad cars that escorted the moving van to the hospital.” The moving van was the second one called. The first was too small. When the caravan finaUy rolled police had blocked off the entire route to the hospital. But police could not help when the elevator also proved, so far as they could tell at first, to be too small for the lung. “We practically had to stuff him in the elevator,” an ambulance attendant said. “We had to tilt his face against the front of the lung to get him inside so we could shut the elevator door. “All the time he was gasping and fighting for breath like a fish out of water.” The elder Thome said his son, originally stricken by polio on Nov. 1, 1954, had been in mortal danger since the pressure “dropped” suddenly in the first lung about eight hours before he reached the hospital.
