Maynard Joseph Fontaine, a -Coast Guard technician evacuated to Kwajalein, said he saw "roofs and trees flying through air like straws." Sgt. Thomas Albert Barker, 24, an Air Force technician, accompanied the four injured to Kwajalein in PBM Mariner. Barker declared there was "no panic, no hysteria among the and children.

Everybody behaved wonderfully." Marching Children Sing The children, he said, sang songs as they marched from their homes to the concrete blockhouses. "The families stayed in the flooded blockhouses more than eight hours before venturing out at at about 6 p. he said. They wanted to take stock of their belongings, but they quickly went back to the blockhouses." Two navigators of the Flying Tigers Airline suffered bad body bruises. One was knocked unconscious.

They were W. Moore of Denver and Blair Johnson of Los Angeles. Quonset hut blew down on them," Barker said. "Moore started running. He didn't know where he Miraculously he ended the dispensary.

"Johnson dashed out of the Quonset hut and when he woke up an hour later he was holding a tree. He had been knocked cold." 'Hams' Relay Reports Barker and Fontaine relayed their reports through amateur radio operators. Airman Les Lucas, Crooksville, sent the message from Kwajalein to Marine Cpl. Dave Gee of Walla Walla, stationed at Pearl Harbor, Mothers and children huddled in the concrete blockhouses for hours, singing while the fierce winds and torrential rains pounded the tiny flat atoll, which rises only 15 feet above sea level. Water sloshed three feet deep in the concrete structures at the peak of the storm.

Truman Hits (Continued from Page One) lie" and "front man for traitors." Truman, addressing a conference attended by a group of men and women about to be admitted to United States citizenship, declared that "communism inside this country has been badly beaten." "But communism never gives up efforts to weaken other nations from within." he declared.

He said, "We're blessed with wide four-lane streets like Paint and Main streets, which could be turned into six-lane streets by eliminating parking for parking for certain hours if the traffic gets bad Chief Poole agreed with statements made earlier by Mayor Richard B. Middleton, Fire Chief Loren Gant and other city officials, that "the best way for us, to handle the traffic situation here is to get Route 23 relocated as soon as possible." He said "Once that is done we should be able to handle the traffic with half the numbers of policemen Paducah is using for traftic, Paducah work." is attempting to set up a traffic bureau and will ask for 20 additional officers, the chief learned.

He said he intends to the best traffic men on the Chillicothe department, let them study street situations as they arise and decide what must be done. If necessary an officer may be sent to the traffic control school at Northwestern university for additional training. One Way Streets Parking has been eliminated from some of Paducah's downtown streets and several others have been turned into one-way streets. Chief Poole said he expects a few of Chillicothe's streets will have to be made one-way as the traffic increases. Paducah has traffic snarls every morning and evening, with the worst ones on Friday and Saturday evenings.

"They have some off-the-street parking lots which help handle some of the load," the chief said. Gambling and prostitution started to "move in" on Paducah once the A-plant workers began to arrive, but the police started a drive and have been able to hold down vice in the community. Chief Poole said that Paducah (has noticed an increased accident rate and a marked increase in the number of burglaries and strongarm robberies. He said a city ordinance forces liquor places to close at midnight, but night clubs and roadhouses remain open in the county. Paducah's starting policeman earns $240 a month, and after a year he receives a Grade A officer's salary, $250 a month.

Chief Poole said Chillicothe starts out a new officer at a Grade of $229.90. At the completion a five-year plan salary, he will eran $260.16 as a Grade A officer. "To induce men to join the department," Chief Poole said, "We may have to lower the plan to three years and start men out at a Grade salary of $248.05." Turkish Engineer Inspects Schools Adli S.

He noed a difference in Turkish and American school construction, observing that in Turkey schools classrooms are not used on the north side of buildings. He gave no explanation for this but it was presumed by others that climate or lightning or a combination of both may be the Turkish explanation for such a type of construction. 24-Hour Ambulance Service Faucet sI Funeral Directors "THE HOME OF SERVICE' Dial 3:5431 Get The Extra Money You Need You may borrow from us under a variety of plans.

Senator Wants Answers to Major Issues SPRINGFIELD, Ill. (P- Sen. J. William Fulbright of Arkansas flew to Springfield through a roaring rainstorm late last night and went immediately to Gov. Adlai Stevenson's office in the executive mansion.

Fulbright avoided giving a direct answer to the purpose of his visit. He is a guest at the governor's mansion. He said he may stay until Thursday when Stevenson leaves for Connecticut, beginning a second major campaign trip. The senator said, "I just came up to see what is going on." Fulbright said he is supporting Stevenson in the presidential campaign. But he told newsmen he wants to hear the governor's idea about some of the decisive issues of the campaign.

Namely civil rights legislation, the Taft-Hartley act, and Stevenson's position on Senate Rule 22, which requires a twothirds majority vote to shut off debate. The Arkansas senator, said he agrees, in principle, Stevenson's proposal to repeal the TaftHartley Act. But he disagrees, he said with the governor's view on Rule 22 to make a simple majority vote necessary to stop a filibuster. "I'm not for majority cloture in the Senate," Fulbright said." On civil rights legislation, also, Fulbright said he is in general agreement with Stevenson but he indicated he has some reservations. The governor has proposed setting up a standard of fair employment practices in the individual states, with the provision that the federal government may step in to enforce them if the states do not." "I'm not sure what his specific ideas are on Fulbright said.

"I heard his statement on television, and it sounded sensible. But I want to talk with him about it. Fulbright and the governor are expected also to discuss the political picture in the southern states, as well as the reported corruption in Washington. Democrats Eye Five House Seats WASHINGTON The chairman of the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee said today the Democrats have. a good chance of picking up House seats in Ohio--no matter which way the state goes in the presidential race.

However, Rep. Kirwan (D.Ohio) said he expects Gov. Adlai Stevenson, the Democratic nominee, to capture Ohio's 25 electoral votes as did President Truman in 1948. Kirwan told a reporter that concerted campaigning could return three former Democratic Congressmen to Capitol Hill. He listed these as Earl T.

Wagner of Cincinnati. Walter B. Huber of Akron and John McSweeney of Wooster. All three were unseated in 1950 by Republican Reps. Hess, Ayres and Bow, respectively, whom they are facing against this year.

Ike Calls for (Continued from Page One) whom they deal should be subject to, the same requirement. would not mind, every morning, swearing an oath of loyalty to the United States of the general declared. "I would be proud every night to give my sworn oath that I am not a Communist. "But I would resent doing this and I would resent it bitterly, if I were singled out to do it because I happened to be a veteran, or someone who lived in Kansas-or if I were a labor union official." In reference to his Democratic rival for the presidency, Eisenhower declared: "My opponent made plain on Labor Day that he wanted power, as president, to compel' arbitration. That is exactly what I am against.

If you want the basic. irreconcilable difference between his position and mine, there it is. He and his party embrace compulsion. I reject compulsion!" Interrupting his 12-state Midwest and Southern whistle-stop tour, the general flew back to New York from Minneapolis yesterday for the speech. He received a big tion in Minneapolis and St.
