Boardman warns of Soviet danger The siren call of ffiend- the part of Khrushchev is bdfoney, pure and simple," Lee V. Boardman, former agent of the FBI, told a packed audience at the Dungeness Community Club Monday night. The sole, main obstruction to Soviet domination of the entire World is the U.S., he said, and objective of Soviet Russia is to' overcome the United Stales, by Cold war preferably. If they had the power to mili- subjugate this country, we would have been bombed before ndw', he continued. The only reason we have not been is that they do not feel they can do it without retaliation.

IN HIS FIRST public speech on the subject of Communism since his retirement after 25 years with the FBI, Boardman urged his listeners to rend, lo become well informed on communism, and to know the enemy. He feels Communists have accomplished what they" have because we have been unread, thetic. uninformed and apa- He said if he could put across that--we arc at war today, in a war, and a war we are losing but by bit; and if those hearing him became sufficiently concerned to do some reading on their own, then he would have achieved his goal in making the speech. The well informed American does not have to fear the fellow traveler, the Communists, or their sympathizers. sia without any fear of being opened.

BETWEEN 195040 if SOVIET diplomats were found to be spies, and were "booted out" of the country, he said. He added that for four years Soviet spies have been collecting aerial photos, made at what is known as "bombing range height." They have photos that would permit a bombing run on every large city, every major harbor, every strategic area in the United States, he said. They have been accumulating public information for years. They subscribe to scientific publications and have bought well over 150,000 patents in the U.S. and sent them to Russia.

HE DESCRIBED BLACKMAIL used by the Soviets. Every American who writes to a relative in Russia has his letter read first to see if he works in a defense plant or for a company making strategic material for the U.S. If so, he is listed for further investigation. Every person who goes into Russia as a tourist is scanned, and everyone who goes into the Russian Embassies. "Even our state department representatives in Russia are not free of blackmail," he said.

IN TELLING OF Russian propaganda, Boardman said in addition to copies of the magazine "USSR" put out all over the country, the Soviets have the names of leading editorial writers, influential TV personalities, key libraries and key universities, ffrfftnfe Keeling, MU ties "IF YOU ARE going to take ac-1 the sum of 7.000 individuals tion, see that it is taken with per- ho are sent weekly press re- sons in authority," he said.

Through investigation of defectors from Russian establishments throughout the world, he con- fjntjbd. conservative estimates show that 80 to 90 per cent of all Soviet diplomats are engaged in spying activities. THE MEASURE of their success in assignments is dependent upon the number of secrets they liave stolen from the host country.

At the same time, the United States had 85 diplomatic officials Russia representing the U. S. government and employed 135 Russians as maids, chauffers and ethers. To get employment, Russians must be cleared by their MVD or secret police, Boardban explained. He discussed the use of the "diplomatic pouch" to transmit material in and out of the country.

AKMY OPERATION New Salvation Army operates to 92 countries around Sequim may have a swimming pool in use next summer, if plans made at a pool meeting Thurs' day night at the Legion Mall are carried through. Approximately 30 attended, and 18 organizations were represented. The group agreed to go ahead with preparation of petitions to be circulated for the formation of a recreation district, and to meet again Thursday night of this week.

Leonard Beil, chairman of the swimming pool committee, conducted the meeting. County Auditor Robert Fleming the required procedure to set up a recreation district. County Treasurer Robert Clark explained how the pool would have to be paid for. ORVILLE MENDRICKSON gave estimated cost of pool at $57,673. It would have to comply with state health board regulations.

The chairman announced Sequim Rotarians have voted to defray the organizing expense of the recreation district up to $25. Einar Thomsen, president of the Macleay Community Club, pledged $50 from that organization. Carl Klint and Dr. Ray Parker reported on two possible sites near the school. Information brought out at the meeting has been condensed by the chairman' into the following fact sheet: THE PRIMARY PURPOSE of the recreation district at the present time is to provide necessary machinery to finance and operate a swimming pool facility.

Could the recreation district include other recreation programs in the area? Projects undertaken by recreation districts are detre- mined by the desires of the people in the district and put into action by the elected commissioners of the recreation district. What would be the boundaries of the East End Recreation District? It is necessary to use the established boundaries of a political sub-division to expedite the calculation of tax units and the number of registered voters. The proposed recreation district would have the same boundaries as Clallam County Road District No. 1 and include the City of Sequim. WOULD THE CITY OF Sequim be included in the boundaries of the district? The Sequim City Council has passed a resolution authorizing the City of Sequim to be included in the proposed district.

Who would actually run the Recreation District? The people of district through five elected recreation district ccmm-ission- ers each of whom would represent one of the five areas within the recreation district. How is a recreation district actually formed? A petition must be signed by 15 per cent of the registered voters-within the boundaries of the proposed district. The county auditor would then certify to the county commissioners whether or not a sufficient number of registered voters have signed the petition. The county commissioners will hold a public hearing within 60 days after the petitions have been certified. A notice of this hearing must be published once a week for three weeks prior to the hearing.

An election would then be held on the second Tuesday in March in an even numbered year or the county commissioners may order a special election. HOW MANY REGISTERED voters in the proposed district would have to sign the petition to make it legal? There are 2,684 registered voters in the proposed district so 403 valid signatures would have to be secured on the petitions. How many people would have to vote in favor of the formation of the recreation district if the proposal is placed on the ballot? A simple majority of those voting in the election will decide the issue. For example if 500 people voted and 251 voted in favor of the proposal the issue would carry. HOW MUCH MONEY would be needed for the construction of a swimming pool facility? Two local contractors have reported after considerable investigation into pool construction costs that a complete swimming pool facility would cost approximately $57,000.

This would include a pool 75' long and an average of 30' in width and with a modified diving area. There would be three regulation width racing lanes and the 75' length would be the regulation A.A.U. racing distance. The pool area would be just 2500 square feet. State health regulations require additional expensive pool design when the pool is over 2500 square feet.

Pressing facilities, showers, toilet facilities would be included as well as facilities for heating, underwater and surface lighting, filtering and chlorination, large concrete aprons around the entire pool and a solic board fence enclosing the entire pool area. WHO WOULD MAKE the final decisions on pool design and faculties? The recreation district commissioners who would be elected at the time of tne district formation election. How nausb money would the distrie be allowed to raise for capital outlay? Tbe iaw provides SWIMMING POOL Leonard Beil, chairman of the Sequim swimming pool committee, conducted the public meeting Thursday night. a recreation district may issue general obligation bonds for capital outlay only not to exceed per cent of the assessable valuation of the property in the dis- rict. This would amount to approximately $79,000 in the pro- josed district.

HOW MUCH WOULD IT cost me as a tax payer for $60,000 in obligation bonds for the construction of the swimming pool acility? A $60,000 bond issue re- Pprmer resident dies in Oakland William Lawrence Jamieson, 68, a former resident of this area, died in Oakland, Oct. 19. Masonic services were held in Oakland Oct. 24. Mr.

Jamieson was a member of Port Townsend Lodge No. 6, AM, and of Aahmes Temple of the Shrine, Scottish Rite Bodes and Oakland Consistory, all of Oakland. He was the brother of Mrs. Waurice Dean of Blyn; uncle of Wrs. Margaret Hewett of Tacoma; and of Ernest Dean of Port Angeles.

paid over a 20 years would heed a'bout $5400 a year for 2ft years to pay on the affd the interest. This would amount to, about a 1 mill levy per year. In other words a house with a market value of $10,000. would have an additional tax of about $2.00 a year. How would the pool maintenance cost be raised.

The largest part of pool operating costs probably would come from swimming fees. Swimming fees would be set by the elected recreation district commissioners. Additional' money might be expected from donations, gifts, UGN, etc. Any deficit would have to come from tax monies. WHAT WOULD BE the cost of operating' the pool for a year? This is a difficult question to an- I swer with a great deal of ac- I curacy, but for comparison the Port Angeles community pool was operated on a budget for 1960.

It would be probable that the costs would-be considerably lower for a new pool with less, costs for directors and managers. Where would the pool be located? This would 1 be a decision of the elected commissioners. When will the signing of petitions need to be completed to meet all of the deadlines to place the issue on the March ballot? By the first part of December. If the recreation district issue is passed on the March ballot when would the swimming facility be ready for use? It be hoped that the swimming facility would be ready for use by the first part of June 1962. Communists not signing SEATTLE (AP) No Western Washington Communists have registered at the Federal Courthouse here yet in compliance with a Supreme Court ruling of Oct.

10 that Communist Party members must register with the government. They have until Nov. 19 to do so, U.S. Attorney Brock Adams said Saturday. After that date, if district attorneys receive information about suspected unregistered Communists, they will forward it to the Justice Department in Washington, D.C.

The Justice Department will lay a complaint before the Subversive Activities Control Board, which will order the individuals involved to appear before it for hearing. If the board decides an individual must register and he refuses to do so, he will be subject to indictment. The Justice Department is not making known how swiftly and in what manner it will act against suspected unregistered Communists after the Nov. 19 deadline, Adams said.
