Rev. Hegland of Teller Attends Tacoma Meeting Of Lutheran Church

TACOMA, Rl-A pastor of an Eskimo parish flew here from north of Nome, to set the long dis tance travel mark for the Pacific District Convention of the Evan gelical Lutheran church.
 The Rev. Norval Hegland was able to come for the current four day session under the church con- vention expense-sharing policy by which all pastors, even those from Tacoma, pay the same travel ex- pense.
 The far north pastor came south as an airplane passenger but in his home parish he flies his own plane.
 Flying a Piper family cruiser, the Rev. Hegland covers a parish of five communities, with Teller as his home base. Other towns in the circuit and their distance from Teller are Teller Mission, miles; Shishmaref, 75 miles; Lost River, 35 miles; and Nome, 75 miles. Ex- elusive of Nome, Hegland's parish totals 500 Eskimos.
 Prior to the advent of the ''bush" pilot these distances had to be negotiated by dog sled in the winter and by boat in the summer. There are no roads 'Last year one native made trir to Nome by dog team" said Heg- land, but this winter no one tried it. For transportation pur- poses the dog sled is a thing o1 the past"

Hip Ailment Will Cause Taft To Relinquish
 Senate Floor Leadership

WASHINGTON, Rl-Sen. Taft announced today his hip ailment lis a serious one" that will keep him from being active as Senate floor leader for the rest of this session of Congress.
 Returning here from four-day checkup by doctors in a New York hospital, Taft hobbled onto the Senate floor on crutches and said his administrative assistant, Jack Martin, would issue a statement later.
 Sen. Knowland of California, chairman of the Senate COP Pol icy Committee, acted as Senate leader today even though Taft was on the floor briefly.
 The majority leader, who regu- lates the flow of legislation to the Senate floor, operates from an aisle seat and as a matter of practice gets preferential recogni- tion by the presiding officer.
 Hence the position is one of great power over the law-making machinery.
 The Taft announcement caused a minor sensation among senators and colleagues because of the key role he has been taking in the Eisenhower administration.

Anchorage Policeman Shoots It Out With Trio In Stolen Automobile

ANCHORAGE, R - A police man and two airmen he had stop ped to question because they were riding in a stolen car were ser iously injured in an ensuing gun battle early yesterday on the streets of suburban Spenard.
 A third occupant of the auto mobile, a 15-year-old youth, es- capped but was captured later.
 The wounded were William Pfalmer, 27, the policeman; A2c George R. Trombly, 19, of New Bedford, Mass, and Airman Joe B. Underwood, 20, Lufkin, Tex. The airmen both were stationed at Elmendorf Air Force base.
 The youth, who escaped unin- jured in the hail of bullets, was identified as Mike Murphy.
 Palmer said Underwood start ed the gunfire, shooting himself in the leg as he pulled his weapon and then nicking Palmer in the arm. The policeman returned the fire, hitting Trombly in the groin.
 He said Murphy opened fire on him with pistol from the back seat, then escaped. Sometime dur ing the exchange, Pfalmer was struck by bullet which shattered and lodged in his spine.
 Doctors said they cannot re- move the bullet and officials said it will not be possible to deter mine who fired the shot. Pfalmer is paralyzed from the waist down.

Signs Point To Korean Cease-Fire Within a Week

PANMUNJOM, LR II United Nations and Communist truce ne gotiators = their work apparently all but finished III today handed staff officers the job of putting a Korean armistice into final form, then recessed indefinitely.
 All signs pointed to cease-fire within the week, but these de- velopments clouded the picture:
 l. Switzerland announced it would not serve on the five na- ton prisoner repatriation commis- sion unless South Korea approves the truce.
 2. South Korean leaders reiter- ated bitter opposition and anti armistice demonstrations ragged in Seoul for the second straight day.
 8. A spokesman for Syngman Rhee dashed reports that the South Korean president will fly to Washington to make a personal appeal against the truce. Rhee, he said, will not leave Korea lat this time of grave situations"
 Details of what went on at to- days plenary session at Panmun- jom were not disclosed, but the delegates presumably completed their work.

Tornado Takes 85 Lives In Eleven Communities

WORCESTER, Mass, R - Ma tional Guardsmen patr0lled the rubble filled streets of II Wor- cester county communities today as searchers dug through ruins left by a death dealing tornado that took at least 85 lives, made 2,5O0 homeless and caused up to $5O,0O0,OOO damage.
 Authorities feared the death toll might rise. Police said ruins of 200 houses still remained to be searched.
 Frantic families visited morgues and hospitals in search of missing relatives and friends.
 The worst tornado ever to visit New England whirled in a twist ing, destructive path through cen . tral Massachusetts during the sup per hour yesterday. It spent it's fury in 30 minutes.
 About 400 of the injured were either hospitalized or treated at first aid station. All sight seers were warned to keep away from the devastated districts.
 At dawn, eyewitnesses said, the smashed area resembled pictures they had seen of the damage wrought by the atom bombs on Japan in World War II.
 The tornado struck here less than "A hours after a similar storm hit sections of Ohio and Michigan with a toll of 139 dead and 1000 injured and IS million dollars in property damage.
 Big houses were lifted com pletely off their foundations and dropped yards away. Automobiles were tossed as much as 15O feet.
 In Holden, Mrs Ruth Oslund hysterically told police the wind whipped her two-weeks-old dau- ghter out of her arms and out of sight after she ran from her house in the belief she would be safer in the open.

Eisenhower Says US. Cannot Stand Alone

MINNEAPOLIS, R- President Eisenhower said Wednesday all the free nations of the world must stand together in the "total de- fense" against Communism.
 He declared the United States, even though the strongest nation on earth, "cannot make our own decisions, fight and stand as only we ourselves may choose"
 "There is no such thing as par tial unity. That is a contradiction in terms" Eisenhower said in a speech prepared for the National Junior Chamber of Commerce.
 The President also took occa- sion to defend his controversial cut in the Truman administra- tion's air force budget, declaring his program will mean fewer planes in theory, more planes in fact-more swiftly and less ex- pensively."
 In pointed words, Eisenhower declared that the insistence of his critics on magic words" - an apparent reference to those in sisting on Having air force is mot reasonable"
 The President named no names in Wednesdays speech, his first on a five-state tour that will keep him away from Washington until Sunday night, but he elaborated some on the views he expressed after Sen. Taft's recen$ speech proposing that this country ''for- get the United Nations" if cur rent armistice talks in Korea fail to stop the fighting.
 Outlining what he called "our whole concept of the conduct of world affairs, Eisenhower ham mered on the theme that unity with allies of the free world is necessary the globe over.
 He said:
 "A total struggle-let us never forget it-calls for a total defense. As there is no weapon too small no arena too remote-to be ig- nored, so there is no free nation too humble to be forgotten. All of us have learned-first from the onslaught of Nazi aggression and then from Communist aggression that all free nations must stand together, or they shall fall sep arately."
 And this essential, indispens- able unity" he declared, means compromise.

neck and chest bearing several
stab wounds.
