Ranchers Avenge Staying Of Three N e igh b ors

MERRIMAN, Neb., (R- Grim Nebraska ranchers avenged the killing of three neighbors Thurs day by cornering the gunman in a shed and firing bullet after bullet until the triple-slayer cried out:
 "I'm through. Come and get mel"
 The angry posse poured into the building and dragged out 32-year- old Blaine Ellis, still clutching his shotgun.
 Mortally wounded, Ellis gasped out the phrases "They bawled me out" and "just the meanness in me-"
 Officers said it was the dying mans admission that he killed MT. and Mrs. George Mensinger and a neighbor, Dec Gardner, Thursday morning.
 Mensinger, 28, was the oper- ator of 5000 acre ranch five miles south of Merriman. He was killed by a shotgun blast through the front doorway of his farm home. His wife, Elaine, 24, was wounded but reached telephone and gave the alarm. Another shot killed her and wounded her To- month-old baby.
 Gardner, 50 and another neigh bor, Cliff McDonald, had started for the Mensinger ranch when they met the assailant. Gardner was killed by a pistol shot and Mcdonald wounded by a shotgun blast.

 To Drop More Equipment

ANCHORAGE, (Pl-"Party all right. We plan be here some time. Drop us new potbelly stove, low range thermometer"
 This was part of message re- ceived from three men on float ing ice island in the Arctic Ocean about 90 miles from the North Pole by the crew of an Air Force B-29 Tuesday as it passed over he island on a regular flight to the pole.
 The ice islanders, who have been living on a five-by eight mile chunk of ice since March 19, contacted the B-29, as it headed for the pole, on a walkie- -talkie, their only means of communica- ton with the outside world.
 They asked also that a CAY scheduled to land on the island within the next few days with another scientist and communi- cations man, bring as much equip ment as possible.
 The semi permanent weather camp is located on what has been named Fletcher'S Island after It. Col. Joseph O. Fletcher, veteran Arctic explorer, who commands the expedition.
 The camp was set up with 30 days supplies on hand: More sup plies and equipment will be landed by CAY but the camp will continue to be supplied main ly by air drop.

Naval Aviation Doing More Shooting In Korea Than In World War III

WASHINGTON, (PD - It may not be an official war, but naval aviation is doing more shooting in the Korean police action" than it did in the official war against Japan.
 Statistics on the part naval aviation is playing in the present disturbance were given the House Appropriations Committee by Vice Adm. John H. Cassady during hearings on the 1853 Navy bud get. The committee was told naval aviation has "fired about half as much ammunition, dropped two thirds as many bombs and fired more rockets than we did in the entire Pacific war from 1941 through 1945."
 During the 19-month Korean conflict period, he said, 309 Navy planes were lost to enemy action, all but one to ground fire.

Associates Say
 Ike Will Resign In May from NATO

SUPREME HEADQUARTERS, Allied Powers in Europe, (R - Among Allied officers at SHAPE there is little doubt that their boss, Gen. Eisenhower, will sub init his resignation shortly after his annual report is published next Wednesday.
 The general himself has said nothing of the sort, but staff of ficers believe he would like to leave here some time during the last two weeks of May, after tha Oregon presidential primary.
 To depart at that time, he like ly would write his resignation letter to President Truman-pro- bably to be submitted through Defense Secretary Lovett at least a month before he leaves. It would take that long for the resignation to be approved by the 14 nations contributing to his AL lied command, and to get their approval for a successor.

Name of MAFB Officially Changed
 To Nome Field

Marks Air Force Base is now officially thing of the past. From now on, it has been reported, the US. Air Force base here will be known as Nome Field. A military spokesman stated that the change has been made to avoid confusion for planes landing on the Air Force field.
 The rise and fall of Marks Air Force Base will be an interesting chapter some day when historians record how and why the base was built during World War II and how it was practically abandoned as far as protection is concerned by our military leaders who placed 12,00O good Americans out side the "perimeter of defense" where they still remain.
 Yes, here they remain, facing the fact that in the event of war warning stations throughout the area will alert and prepare our military forces to defend the nation, but as for the 12,00O souls in Northwestern Alaska - they stand to be abandoned as no pro- tection is known to have been planned for them. What will his torians say about that?

Government Controls Off Time Payment Terms

WASHINGTON, (P) - For the first time in 20 months, the gov- ernment has given you free rein to buy that car, television set, or furniture on whatever terms you can get.
 The Federal Reserve Board Wednesday suspended controls over down payments and time to-pay-on grounds that an easing of inflationary pressure made the controls no longer necessary.
 Authorities on the Reserve Board said actually they expect the effects to be slight.
 Some trade circles, happy over the suspension of controls, pre- dicted a boost in sales, which have been tagging.
 The government still will regu- late terms for real estate pur- chases-under Regulation "X'- and officials said their is little likelihood of a suspension in this field.

Carpenters Silent On WSB Offer To Take Jurisdiction

ANCHORAGE, (P- The AFL Carpenters strike continued in the Anchorage area despite the Wage Stabilization Board offer Wednesday to take jurisdiction in the wage increase dispute.
 The WSB said it would under take hearings on the dispute only on condition that the carpenters returned to work first.
 Associated General Contractors officials hailed the WSB action as substantiation of their claim that the April 26 agreement be- tween ACC and the Alaska Coun- cil of Carpenters, to submit the dispute to the WSB, was valid and binding.
 "In effect, the WSB decision to accept jurisdiction constitutes gov- ernment recognition of the legal ity of the agreement" ACC off cials stated. Otherwise, they would not handle it."
 The ACC reported it replied promptly to the WSB Wednesday that it was prepared for confer ences with the Construction h. ,dustry Stabilization Commission, which the WSB designated as the hearing panel.
 The carpenters adopted a pol icy of silence on the WSB wire. Union officials also continued to withhold comment on the five million dollar damage suit the contractors have announced they would file against the union.
 There was no completely shut down project in the area up to Wednesday night, but pickets made their first appearance We'd nesday at the Airport Heights Goose Lake Housing Project, known as Anchorage Home.
 Meanwhile, a carpenters meet ing is scheduled tonight at Fair banks for discussion of possible strike action.
 The carpenters are demanding an increase from the present S3.I4 an hour to $3.70.
