Legionnaires Hold 10-Hour Parade ST. LOUISE (UP)—American Legionnaires took time out from convention battles over controversial foreign and domestic issues today to stage a huge, 10-hour parade. Some 150,000 Legionnaires, armed service members and civic organizations joined the line of march to mark the Legion's 35th national convention here at the site of its organization meeting in 1919. Meanwhile, Legion committees prepared reports on such controversial issues as Air Force budget outs, the United Nations and Red hunting in Congress. Vice President Richard M. Nixon, defended congressional and administration slashes in defense appropriations yesterday. He told cheering legion delegates that "President Eisenhower feels it is possible to have a sound military establishment and a sound economy." One powerful group, the Legion's Aeronautics Committee, had branded the 5 billion dollar cut in Air Force funds as "ill-timed." But Nixon told the full convention that Mr. Eisenhower had made the decision to trim Air Force funds himself. "And I believe the people of this country can trust his judgment better than that of any other man in the world," Nixon said. Past National Commander Donald R. Wilson of Clarksburg, W. Va., told the Legionnaires they should "carefully watch the United Nations chowder and marching club" which, he said, meets in a "glass club house on the East River." He said the U. M. has "harbored Communists and traitors." OLDSTERS REUNION SHOSHONI, Wyo. — Retired "windjammer" sea captain W. A.

Orange County Clerk B. J. Smith said that the propositions on the ballots are becoming so numerous, the candidates so many and the whole system of voting so complicated that it would be worse with voting machines. He said he suspects that as the reason why Los Angeles County wants to sell off a few. Major problems of voting machines are to get people to understand how they work, and to keep them working. Smith said that his information is that the machifies sometimes fail, and a crew of workers must be ready to repair them. That plus cost of cartage and storage, would more than equal the cost of paying election officials, some of whom are necessary anyway even with voting machines, the clerk explained.

Russians Quiz Pilots On U.S. Air Might FREEDOM VILLAGE, Korea (UP)—Russian interrogators, using drawings of secret U.S. warplanes, questioned pilot prisoners Told to Rotary Club By Santa Ana Man An interesting side-glance at the Coronation and its color was brought before the Rotary Club yesterday by Rich Bassett of Santa Ana. Bassett had the opportunity of being an official photographer for a major wire service to cover the Coronation. He explained how he managed to get the assignment. He originally went to Europe to photograph the Rotary International convention held in Paris. He had a stop-over in London before going to Paris and at a Rotary meeting, became acquainted with the Royal Florist who made the bouquet the Queen carried in the procession. The florist was interested in having some colored pictures made of the flowers and Bassett agreed to do the job for him. When he returned to London from Paris, he took the photos and through his acquaintances, was invited to the London Press Club where he was made an honorary member. While at the club, he was approached with the offer of staying in London and photographing the ceremony, especially the procession from Buckingham Palace to Westmister Abbey. He described the teeming crowds that had gathered along the parade route for days prior to the event and when the actual procession started he was stationed in a barber shop on the second floor of a building overlooking Picadilly Circus. From this location he took his pictures, many of which appeared in leading newspaper and magazines all over the world. He displayed many of the pictures he took and explained some of the details that made the Coronation a once-in-a-lifetime experience. He also told how the first pictures taken appeared in American newspapers even before the ceremony was complete in the Abbey. The photographers took pictures off the television screens and radioed them to New York and beat the English newspapers in their publication.

"There a Russian fellow who poke English questioned me. He ulled out a bunch of drawings of the latest U.S. aircraft—some of which I had never seen, and asked if I knew about them." Hedlund said the drawings showed B52s, 36s and 47s "and there were some I wasn't even aware we had." Another Russian questioned Hedlund later. "He also had drawings of our planes," the captain said. "But he asked me a lot of non-military questions like my pay, did I ever date Japanese girls and things like that." The second Russian had a gun. "He told me, 'If you don't tell the truth you know what will hapepen to you.'" Hedlund said. Hedlund returned to freedom today. Read the Anaheim Bulletin want ads for profit and pleasure.
