Senseless Destroying of
Gentle Stallion Puts Little
Crippled Girl in Gloom
UMATILLA, Ore., Wl — It will
be a sad, long winter for Susie
Hams — without her Captain.
The gentle stallion’s broad back
and sturdy legs made the world a
wonderful place for Susie, 9.
For six months, Captain carried
Susie to school and out into the
eastern Oregon .countryside for
days of play with friends — after
Susie had struggled up the rails
of a fence with her club feet to
mount the horse.
But somebody shot and killed
Susie’s Captain ^ last Sunday.
Somebody, according to police,
who “just wanted to see what a
double-barreled shotgun would do
to a horse from 10 feet away.”
Now Susie mopes quietly around
her farm home, waiting for the
day next April when corrective
surgery will be performed on her
feet at the Shriners’ Hospital in
Portland. Sometimes she gazes
wistfully out a window at the big
pasture where her Captain used
to wait.
Susie’s mother, Laverne Hams,
has offered a $25 reward for in
formation about Captain’s death.
“Not for apprehension of the per
son that did it,” Mrs. Hams said, :
“but purely for the reason why.” J

other was cheering shot down the :

Bogged Down
Berry Shipments
To Get Fast Check
WASHINGTON, UP)—The events
that have raised the cranberry
from tl^e bog to the nation’s head
lines spotlight the power of the
government in guarding the na
tion’s food supply.
For half a century this power
has existed, but the “cranberry
episode,” as Secretary of Welfare
Arthur S. Flemming calls it,
marks one of its most sweeping
applications.
^Formal court actions, filed this
week in San Francisco, asked
seizure of two small shipments —
a total of 14 tons — of allegedly
contaminated West Cbast cran
berries. But the incident is affect
ing, at least temporarily, an en
tire crop.i
There were these developments:
1. Ocean Spray Cranberries,
Inc., a major grower cooperative,
says it is moving quickly to assay
crops grown in Massachusetts,
Wisconsin and New Jersey, about
which no question was raised, as
well as those in the West Coast.
It hopes to clear uncontaminated
cranberries of suspicion in plenty
of time for Thanksgiving Day
dinners. Expanded forces from
the Food and Drug Administra
tion also were checking the
berries.
2. The Army and Navy sus
pended use of cranberries grown
in Washington and Oregon, but
will permit use of those it can
prove grew elsewhere.
3. The New Jersey Farm Bur
eau said it will seek government
payments to farmers for sales
they have lost as a result of the
controversy.
4. The National Grange, meet
ing in Long Beach, Calif., de
manded that federal officials ap
pear and explain why the crack
down was ordered.

Rockefeller Points
Out U.S. Goal of
Universal Justice
LOS ANGELES, — New
York Governor Nelson A. Rocke
feller said yesterday that the
United States has a higher goal
than frustrating the ambitions of
the Soviet Union.
That goal, he said, “is to make
sure that the emerging interna
tional order will serve, indeed
will save, the aspirations of all
mankind for a life of freedom,
dignity and justice.”
Rockefeller — widely mentioned
as a possible candidate for the
Republican Presidential nomina
tion but still not ready to con
firm or deny it — arrived here to
open a fast-paced, four-day speak
ing tour of the west.
In a speech to’the Los Angeles
World Affairs Council, he said:
“The tensions between the
United States and the Soviet
Union should-not and must not
obscure our awareness of the
great and affirmative challenge
before us, and the resisting of So
viet aggression is only a part, a
necessary but a negative part, of
our great task as a nation.
“We are not simply striving as
a nation to heal the wounds
opened by the so-called cold war.
We are striving to make man him
self — the commonwealth of na
tions — healthy and strong. . . .
“Our supreme purpose is 'not
to defeat the intentions or the am
bitions of others. Our supreme
purpose is to struggle to achieve
a world that respects our com
mon heritage of belief in dignity
and freedom of all peoples.”
New W. German
Radio Will Hinder
Talks, Say Russ
MOSCOW, UP) — The Soviet
Union told the Western Allies to
day that West German plans to
build a new radio station in West
Berlin may hinder negotiations on
the city’s future.
The Soviet government, in a
protest note, charged setting up
the radio would be unlawful and
was designed to “step up subver
sive activity and hostile propa
ganda.”
The protest, quoted by Moscow
Radio, was sent to the United
States, Britain and France, which
share control of West Berlin.
The Soviet move was sparked
by proposed legislation by West
German radio and television po
licy. The plans include a trans
mitting station, Deutschland Funk,
in West Berlin.
The radio proposal is contained
in a draft of a new West German
radio and television law. It has
been approved by the cabinet of
Chancellor Konrad Adenauer but
•has not yet gone to Parliament.
Russian Pig Iron
Finds Its Way to Detroit
A shipment of 2,500 tons of Rus
sian pig iron has been landed in
Detroit. It was brought by a Nor
wegian ship and was imported by
Primary Industries, 120 Wall St.,
New York City, a relatively new
company.
The pig iron was tested and
found to be up to U.S. specifica
tions. Budd Wheel Co. has bought
600 tons of the shipment, but
other buyers are apparently still
reluctant to purchase Russian
products. Five hundred tons were
also probably unloaded at Mon
treal.
