A special state police team got | 
ready to search the ruins of the | 
Kent Manufacturing Co. plant to! 
see if there were any more dead. 
A three-block area was cleared 
by civil defense workers. The 
residents moved into other parts 
of this small Eastern Shore town. 
A sound truck stood by to give 
the all-clear for them. 
The Army demolition teams from

They hauled the stuff to an area 
known as the ‘‘sand pits’’ about a/ 
half mile from town and set it | 
afire. There was little noise. 
The explosives experts then pre- | 
pared to take care of stocks of | 
lead azide, a dangerous explosive. 
They intended to neutralize this) 
by dunking it in water and oil. 
Col. Harry 8S. Russell, director 
of civil defense, reported no inci- 
dents in the evacuation from 
around the plant. 
Cpl. Walter Kulley, heading a 
special police detail, said an ex- 
haustive search will be made of 
the ruins, and it probably would 
not be completed until nightfall. 
Red Cross officials, making a 
check of names, feared there might | 
be “four or five" of the factory's |

ever, the list was narrowed when |

Giant Steel Caisson 
Set at Straits Bridge ST. IGNACE «# — The first of 
a series of plant caissons that 
will serve as piers for the $99,- 
000,000 Straits of Mackinac bridge 
was in place for sinking today. 
It arrived from Toledo in tow 
of a tug at 10:30 last night. It 
started on its journey last Sunday 
at 4 a.m. 
By midnight the caisson had 
been placed in a stall of steel 
columns that will guide it down 
18 feet to bedrock at the bot- 
tom of the Straits. 
The rectangular steel caisson 
measures 44 by 92 feet and weighs 
975 tons. Other steel sections and 
reinforcements weighing a total of 
1,966 tons will be added as the 
caisson is sunk. Six hundred tons 
of concrete were in it when it ar- 
rived, having been used as ballast 
for the trip through Lakes Erie 
and Huron. 
It was towed upright into a posi- 
tion for sinking.

Check Passing County Special Deputy 
Blames Acts on Losses 
at Horse Races 
Anthony Campagna, 32, an Oak- 
land County special deputy sheriff | 
who, Birmingham police say, has | 
admitted passing 45 bad checks in 
30 days, will stand trial in Circuit | girls Thursday night on the steps of a Rochester Church. Court 
Campagna, of Oak Park, was ar- 
raigned yesterday before Justice 
| John Gafill in Birmingham. He 
| waived examination and was bound 
over for trial on $500 bond. 
Detective Glenn Feltz. of the 
Birmingham Pelice Department, 
said Campagna admitted passing 
worthless checks in Detroit, Pon- 
tiac, Mount Clemens, Royal Oak, 
Oak Park, Hazel Park, Ferndale 
and Pleasant Ridge. 
Campagna was arrested Tues 
day as he was leaving his home 
for Chicago. Foltz quoted Cam- 
pagna as saying he passed the 
because of heavy losses 
at the Hazel Park harness race- 
way 
Sheriff Clare L. Hubbell said 
Campagna never was on the coun- 
ty payroll and his special deputy 
card was cancelled when he was 
arrested. 
“The man was well recommend- 
ed to me and as far as I know 
he never got into any trouble unt 
he got into this difficylty.” Hub- 
bell said. 
He recalled issuing the card to 
Campagna ‘‘three or four years 
ago when he ran a barber shop 
in Oak Park.” 
Flanders Abandons 
McCarthy Ouster WASHINGTON «—Sen. Flan- 
ders (R-Vt) said today the Sen- 
ate’s handling of his demand for 
a vote of censure against Sen. Mc- 
Carthy (R-Wis) will test its “‘po- 
litical morality.” 
Flanders yesterday announced 
he was abandoning efforts to get 
the Senate to fire McCarthy from 
committee chairmanships. 
He said he would offer on 
Tuesday instead, a resolution 
which would place the Senate on 
record as declaring McCarthy's 
conduct as chairman of the Sen- 
ate investigations subcommittee 
“is hereby condemned” as unbe- 
coming a senator. 
Flanders said he will seek an 
immediate vote on it Tuesday— 
the same day McCarthy faces a 
| threatened showdown with sub- 
committee members seeking to 
| force a shakeup of his staff ap- 
pointees. 
McCarthy, watching his bubbling 
troubles on both fronts, said he 
feels ‘‘no concern" about Flanders’ 
new move, and told reporters that 
“as far as I'm concerned”’ it will 
be all right for his subcommittee 
to bring the staff problem to a 
head at its closed door meeting

to bribe a member of the com 
mittee 
Rees declared himself ‘‘stunned"’ 
by the report, but said he planned 
no independent inquiry because 
“it's a matter for the Depart- 
ment of Justice.”’ 
Atty. Gen, Brownell late yester- 
day verified widely circulated ru- 
mors that the FBI was looking in- 
to a report that a commitee 
member had been approached in 
a purported attempt to influence 
his vote on legislation to raise the 
pay of postal workers. 
Brownell told newsmen the re- 
port was made by Rep. Broyhill, 
Virginia Republican and wealthy 
building contractor of nearby Ar- 
lington, Va. 
According to the report to the 
FBI, the alleged bribe attempt was 
in the form of an offer of a $500

By TOM STONE 
FUERTH, Germany # — Seven 
American soldiers held 12 days in 
Communist Czecholsovakia said to- 
day their captors threatened them 
with imprisonment if they did not 
reveal U.S, military secrets. 
Capt. Jack Davis, 31, of Ray- 
town, Mo.—one of the captives— 
said Czech army officers told the 
men “after a year or so in pris- 
on you will probably give better 
answers.” 
Davis, speaking for the others at 
a” news conference in an Army mil- 
itary courtroom crowded with pho- 
tographers and newsmen, said they 
were never bodily harmed or 
threatened with physical violence. 
The seven are: Davis, Pvt. Rich- 
ard J. Jumper, 21, Bonneville, 
Miss., Pic. Leonard D. Tennis, 18, 
Alliance, Ohio, Cpl. John F, Glas- 
son, 24, Oakdale, Calif., Pfc, Jerry 
W. Griffith, 22, Springfield, Ohio, 
Pfc. George Switzer, 22, Mil- 
burn, Neb, and Pvt. Ross McGin- 
nis, 21, Greensburg, Pa, 
Davis, chabby, freckled medi- 
cal officer, said the men went to     the border July 4 “to take a 
look,”” and that they were cap- 
tured by a roving Czech border 
patrel of about 20 armed men. 
He said the Czechs fired several 
warning shots at the men ‘so they 
could capture us.” . 
After they were captured, Davis 
said he protested and explained 
they were only on a holiday. 
The seven appeared nervous but 
otherwise seemed fit. They had 
changed from the rumpled, dirty 
clothing they wore on their release 
July 15, and were neat and clean 
shaven, . 
Davis said the Czechs took 
them from Baernan (West Ger- 
many) crossing point to an un- 
known destination inside Czrecho- 
slovaki. .. 
“We do not know where we 
were held,"’ Davis continued. “It 
may have been Prague and it may 
not. We were held in prisons, that's, 
all we know.” 
When the men were first cap- 
tured, the Czechs turned their 
cloth garrison caps inside out and 
‘ shoved them down over the men's 
eyes in an improvised blindfold. 
“I pulled my cap back up to see 
several times,” Davis said, “‘but| fi 
a guard jammed it back down over

Pose for Press ‘Universe’ Aspirants 
Don. Working Clothes 
for Cameramen 
LONG BEACH, Calif. (INS) | 
The four score foreign and domes- 
tic beauties scheduled to compare 
curves in the third annual Miss 
Universe contest don their working 
clothes — bathing suits — today to 
give photographers a preview of 
the pageant of puchritude. 
__The lovelies will pose for press | 
and newsreel cameramen in the 
same swim suits they will wear in 
- @ mammoth beauty parade in 
Long Beach tomorrow, the first 
major event of the week-long 
tribute to feminine charms. 
Tonight the giris will be guests 
at an elaborate welcoming din- 
ner at the muncipial auditorium, 
at which they will receive key- 
te-the-city bracelets and the for- 
eign contestants will present the 
city with gifts from abroad. 
The pageant. which has been 
beset with minor problems since 
the beauties began arriving two 
days ago, had a new problem to- 
day in the person-of Miss Greece 
—Rita Dialina of Athens. 
Her entry into the United States 
had been held up because she once 
iustrated a magazine article for 
a Communist author. But yester- 
day Attorney General Herbert 
ll, Jr.. ordered her ad- 
mitted at the request of Secretary 
of State John Foster Dulles. 
The devolpment did not cause 
cries of joy among pageant offi- 
cials for when Miss Dialina was 
held up they sent to Greece for 
her runner-up — Effie Androula- 
kaki — and she is in Long Beach 
to represent her country in the 
beauty. battle.

Protests Arrive - Commission to Accept 
Pleas by Letter, Even by 
Phone } 
LANSING (UP) — Michigan Bell 
Telephone customers who oppose 
the company’s petition for a $22,- 
000,000 rate increase may be able 
to enter their protests by mail, 
and — ironically — by telephone, 
it w&s learned today 
Robert Derengoski, assistant at- 
torney general assigned to the Pub- 
lic Service Commission, said he 
saw “no reason at all’ to ignore 
letters and phone calls to the com- 
mission ‘by the public in the pub- 
lic interest.” 
“I received a letter from a re- 
sort owner near Cadillac the oth- 
er day vigorously protesting the 
rate hike,”’ Derengoski said, ‘I 
see no reason why it, along with 
recorded telephone calls, can't | 
be entered as a part of the hear- | 
ing record.” 
The Public Service Commission | 
is scheduled to hear a plea by the 
company Monday to reopen the 
rate hike application that was re 
jected last May. 
If the petition to reopen the case 
is granted, the actual hearings on 
the increase will begin immediate- 
ly. Derengoski said. 
Derengoski also revealed that it 
is “conceivable’’ the commission 
would end up by lowering the rates. 
“It is the intention of the com- 
mission staff to see that the exist- 
    
    Ito jail 
    sible that the present rate is not | 
the lowest reasonable rate.” |

50,000 ROTC Officers   
‘Found to Be Privates 
MADISON, Wis. (UP) — The 
University of Wisconsin has trained 
more than 50,000 young men for 
the armed forces “by mistake." 
The university recently learned 
that its Reserve Officers Training 
Corps program, which has been a 
part of the school since 1862, was 
never authorized. 
The board of regents met and 
belatedly approved setting up the 
school’s ROTC unit, despite the 
fact that it has been in operation 
since President Abraham Lincoln 
signed the Morrill Act in 1862.

Dondero Backs 
Road Program Says Ike's $50 Million 
Plan Necessary to Get 
Integrated Highways 
WASHINGTON — Congressman | 
George A. Dondero took issue_yes- 
terday with those critics of Presi- 
dent Eisenhower's proposed $50 
billion highway construction pro- 
gram who say the program would 
constitute a reversal of the admin- 
istration’s policy of returning to 
the states their just powers eariler 
preempted by the federal govern 
ment. 
“I agree with the President 
that further centralization of gov- 
ernmental power must be stopped,” 
said Congressman Dondero. ‘‘And 
I agree with him that many of 
the powers hitherto preempted by 
the federal government should 
now be returned to the states. So 
far as is practicable, this should 
be done with repect to the ex- 
tension and maintenance of the 
highway system. 
But I believe that the interest 
of the whole nation, as represent- 
ed by the federal government is 
equal te that of any state in 
building and maintaining an 
adequate and efficient system of 
highways, beth local and inter- 
state. 
“Such a highway system, it must 
be remembered, is one of the 
prime factors in national defense. 
Both local and interstate highways 
are vastly important in maintaining 
economic activity, and hence 
prosperity, through efficient move- 
ment of people and goods. 
“In absence of a rea) partner- 
ship between the federal govern- 
ment, through its Bureau of Roads, 
and the various states, through 
their highway departments, there 
would be no co-ordination of con- 
struction work among the states. 
In the end we would have a series 
of locally planned highway sys- 
tems, one for each state, and as 
a result there would be no in- 
tegrated system on a nationwide 
scale. Such on intergrated sys- 
tem is a national defense neces- 
| sity.”
