ANAHEIM GAZETTE EST. 1870 PAPER ANAHEIM, ORANGE COUNTY, CALIFORNIA, MONDAY, JULY 23, 1951 Flood Menace Receding Despite New Downpours (By The Associated Press) Drenching rains swamped a three-state midwestern area Sunday with rainfalls reported at more than five inches. Flood-plagued Missouri had a rainfall topping five inches but weather bureau forecasters in Chicago said it was confined to the extreme northern section of the state and was not expected to have any immediate effect upon the flood area in the central part of the state. Meanwhile, seven hundred men labored in an emergency reinforcement of the Chouteau island levee just north of St. Louis on the Illinois side where several thousand acres of farmland was in peril. Except for the immediate riverfront section, St. Louis is on high ground out of reach of the flood. Thirty-six miles of huge earthen barriers protecting the heavily populated area across from St. Louis in Illinois were used. Marshall Petain, Hero of Verdun, Dies at 95 Years PARIS (AP) — Marshall Henri Philippe Petain, 95, chief of state for France during the German occupation, died today, the French news agency reported. The aged marshal, World War One hero of Verdun, died in a military hospital on the bleak lie d'Yeu, off the southwestern Atlantic coast of France. On the island there he had served more than five years of a life sentence for treason in World War II. The French government commuted his sentence last month, shortly after the parliamentary elections, and he was moved from his prison cell to a private home. He had been in failing health for months. He was struck by an accident while Anaheim has one of the best off-street parking among cities of comparable system will be defended.

Teacher and Wife Survive Drop Over 340 Foot Waterfall YOSEMITE NATIONAL PARK A young teacher and his wife survived a battering 340-foot fall labored in an emergency reinforcement of the Chouteau island levee just north of St. Louis on the Illinois side where several thousand acres of farmland was in peril. Except for the immediate riverfront section, St. Louis is on high ground out of reach of the flood. Thirty-six miles of huge earthen barriers protecting the heavily populated area across from St. Louis in Illinois were pronounced in good condition. They are being patrolled around the clock. The peak of the flood rolled by St. Louis early yesterday when the river went to its highest stage in 107 years. The top mark was 40.28 feet, just .02 of a foot higher than the 1947 overflow. The high marks of both floods were recorded officially by the government weather bureau at 40.3 or to the nearest tenth. The loss at St. Louis has been estimated at $4,000,000—less than half that of the flood four years ago when industries in the vulnerable area had less warning. By far the greatest part of the damage in the midwest floods—variously estimated at from $850,-000,000 to $1,000,000,000—was in eastern Kansas and western Missouri along the Kansas and Missouri rivers. More than 15,000 residents of St. Charles county were without electricity for three and one-half hours yesterday as an aftermath of the Missouri river flood. The current was turned off while a temporary line was spliced in around a flood-weakened section of a 33,000-volt power line. During the time the current was off, a baby was delivered at St. Joseph's hospital in St. Charles under lights powered by batteries. The Wabash railroad bridge at St. Charles, weakened by the pressure of prolonged high water, was closed. This forced cancellation of two special trains which had been making two trips daily between St. Charles and St. Louis since flood waters closed the main highway bridge at St. Charles last week. At Cape Girardeau, Mo., more than 100 miles to the south, the railroad station was flooded out and the water was inching into a part of the business section. Search Continues For Missing DC-4 JUNEAU, Alaska (AP) — Rescue planes fanned out over the rugged Alaska coastline early today in an expanding search for a missing Korean airlift transport and its 38 occupants. As the search for the Canadian Pacific Airlines DC-4 widened with a gradual improvement in weather conditions, hope for the occupants diminished. Searchers said the area where the plane last reported was one of the wildest on the North American continent. The transport, carrying among its passengers 29 Americans including two "high-rated" civilians, left Vancouver, B.C., late Friday for Anchorage, Alaska, on the first leg of a flight to Tokyo. The pilot, Capt. Victor Fox, last reported off Cape Spencer, Alaska, at 12:17 a.m. PST (3:17 a.m. EST). Friday. Fox said the plane was on course at 9000 feet, about 80 miles due west of Juneau, with a 5½ hour fuel supply.

On the island there he had served more than five years of a life sentence for treason in World War II. The French government commuted his sentence last month, shortly after the parliamentary elections, and he was moved from his prison cell to a private home. He had been in failing health for months.

The couple, both experienced mountaineers, were picnicking, Eric stopped to drink and fell in Saturday. His wife, trying to save him, also fell in: They were swept down the burning slide, falling, twisting, bouncing against the ledges. Final they landed in a pool at the bottom. Eric crawled out. Mrs. Yoeman rasped dirtwood. Vacationers called her out. FOREST FIRE TOLL If all the forest fires in California last year had burned in an area one mile wide along U. S. highway 101, the burned area could stretch from San Diego to near the Oregon line. It would be 55 miles long, and a motorist would need about two days to drive through the 553,400 acres of devastated wild land. Pressure of prolonged high water was closed. This forced cancellation of two special trains which had been making two trips daily between St. Charles and St. Louis since flood waters closed the main highway bridge at St. Charles last week. At Cape Girardeau, Mo., more than 100 miles to the south, the railroad station was flooded out and the water was inching into a part of the business section. The Mississippi is expected to crest there tomorrow.

GUEST SPEAKER Father Maurice Dee of S face church will be guest when Anaheim Knights of Oral bus hold their semi-monthly tonight at 8 o'clock KC council chambers at Center st. Efforts Begun to Reroute Trucks Off Center Street Ways and means of ending the rumble and roar of heavy truck traffic down Anaheim’s main street, Center st., were sought by Anaheim planning commission today following a short talk on the subject by Chairman Joe R. Thompson. “The deep concern manifested by the operators of our business houses on Center st. and their requests for relief from this situation can be ignored no longer,” Thompson said. “I refer of course to the big and often speeding trucks with their attendant noise and obnoxiousness, as well as the traffic hazard and congestion they produce.” Thompson pointed out that, while Anaheim has one of the finest off-street parking systems among cities of comparable size, the purpose of this “splendid park-and-ride system will be defeated unless...” Allied Negotiators Ready To Resume Talks Wednesday U.N. ADVANCE HEADQUARTERS, Korea (P)—Allied negotiators gathered here again today, armed with final U.N. instructions for the resumption of Korean war cease-fire talks in Kaesong Wednesday. Vice Adm. C. Turner Joy, chief of the five-man United Nations team, flew back from Tokyo tonight after a series of conferences with Gen. Matthew B. Ridgway. He was accompanied by two other U.N. delegates, Maj. Gen. L. C. Craigie and Rear Adm. Arleigh Burke. They talked with the supreme Allied commander Saturday, Sunday and Monday. The decisions made in Tokyo probably will remain secret until the ninth meeting of negotiators in a Kaesong schoolhouse Wednesday. The Korean war will be 13 months old Wednesday. Whether it will end soon or flare up anew in bloody fighting hinges on settlement of one vital question: Shall the question of withdrawal of all foreign troops from Korea be plac... Thompson pointed out that, while Anaheim has one of the finest off-street parking systems among cities of comparable size, the purpose of this "splendid parking system will be defeated unless the serious truck hazard is eliminated." While City Council and Planning commission members as individuals have been giving thought to the problem, Thompson said he felt it was the duty of the Planning commission as an advisory body to bring plans and suggestions bearing on the subject before the Plannig commission for study and appraisal. "There are two schools of thought as to the location of a truck by-pass route," Thompson explained. "There are some who feel it should be placed two miles north of Anaheim on Orangethorpe ave., and others who believe it should be placed somewhere along the southern edge of the city. However, before a decision is reached on either plan, much information must be examined and alternative plans must be discussed," he said. The Orangethorpe route, as Thompson explained it, would be feasible in this manner: eastbound traffic on Lincoln-Center st. can be diverted before it reaches the west city limits north to Orangethorpe; then the westbound traffic must be diverted from Highway 18 in the Santa Ana canyon, eight miles east of Olive, north across the river to Orangethorpe. If this is accomplished a provision for traffic from Anaheim's industrial area south of Center st. would be made through the city to Orangethorpe ave. On the other hand, he pointed out, if traffic from the west is diverted south of the city to Vermont or Ball rd. before reaching the city limits and is brought back to Highway 18 east of Anaheim but still west of the Anaheim-live bridge, the route could serve all industry south of the city and completely relieve truck traffic congestion east or west on Center NAPLES, Italy (P)—American Navy men will pay a final tribute to Admiral Forrest P. Sherman in Naples harbor tomorrow just before his body is placed aboard an airplane for the last flight home. The 54-year-old U. S. chief of naval operations died in his Naples hotel yesterday noon after suffering two heart attacks. He had just completed a tour of Europe's Atlantic pact defense area. He had also visited Generalissimo Francisco Franco and was believed to have reached a tentative agreement for American use of Spanish air and naval bases. The admiral's body will be taken tomorrow to Naples airport after simple services on the deck of the American warship, U.S.S. Mt. Olympia, anchored in the bay of Naples. The body was taken to the ship yesterday. Four U.S. destroyers, all veterans of the Korean fighting recently arrived to join the U. S. Mediterranean fleet, will be alongside as the shipboard services are held. As the ships—the Fuskeer, the "William R. Rush," the "Hawkins," and the "Joseph P. Kennedy, Jr." moved into position today their crews stood at attention at the rails. An Italian armed forces guard and an honor guard of American sailors will render final honors at the airport. A four-motored American plane carrying the body will take off for Washington at 10 a.m. (4 a.m. E.S.T.) It will be accompanied to the U. S. by Sherman's aide, Marine Maj. Sherman Smith of Salt Lake City, Utah, and by Marine Capt. Clifford Miller of Toledo, O., captain of the armed guard on the Mt. Olympus. The plane is expected to arrive in Washington Wednesday afternoon after a refueling stop in the Azores. Temperatures Temperature reading in downtown Anaheim at 2 p.m. today was 79. Low was 65 at 6 a.m. today. The decisions made in Tokyo probably will remain secret until the ninth meeting of negotiators in a Kaesong schoolhouse Wednesday. The Korean war will be 13 months old Wednesday. Whether it will end soon or flare up anew in bloody fighting hinges on settlement of one vital question: Shall the question of withdrawal of all foreign troops from Korea be placed on the cease-fire agenda? The reds have insisted that the question be debated in full-scale armistice talks, to start when the list of topics for discussion has been adopted. The United Nations have said it is a political matter to be decided after an armistice. Wednesday's meeting may produce an unbreakable deadlock, or a compromise that will permit the talks to go on. The eighth meeting between Allied and red negotiators ended abruptly Saturday after the community requested a recess "to enable sides to study the proposed far presented." It...la be the reds wanted time to call it Peping and Moscow. In seeing to the recess, Joy suggested the conference resume earlier if possible. There has been no indication, however, that it will. Joy flew to Tokyo Saturday, accompanied by delegates Maj. Gen. L. C. Craigie of the Air Force and Rear Adm. Arleigh Burke. Maj. Gen. H. I. Hodes and Maj. Gen. Palk Sun Yup, the other two members of the Allied delegation, did not accompany Joy. It is presumed Paik used the interval to report to South Korean President Syngman Rhee. There has been no statement from either side as to what specific items have been agreed upon for the agenda. They probably include an exact time for the shooting to end, exchange of prisoners, creation of a buffer zone, and inspection of behind-the-lines territory by neutral observer teams. Joy has indicated his belief that this is enough of an agenda to start full-scale armistice talks. McCracken Defense Launches Intensive Cross-Examination of Sheriff Witnesses McCracken Defense Launches Intensive Cross-Examination of Sheriff Witnesses Expectation that the prosecution would complete its case today against Henry Ford McCracken, charged with the kidnap-murder of Patty Hull, Buena Park, 10, faded as the defense launched into a long cross-examination of Jack Cadman, assistant in the sheriff's identification bureau and District Attorney James L. Davis announced that he plans to call two additional witnesses. Cadman, who testified to tests of blood that spattered the motel cabin of McCracken when he was arrested on the day following the murder of the girl last May 19, was cross-examined at great length by the defense counsel George Chula. Chula appeared to place great stress upon the condition of a window screen that was an exhibit. He quizzed Cadman regarding the freshness or age of nail holes in the screen, and other details regarding it. Observers speculated on the possibility that the defense was laying groundwork for its expected claim that an unknown person broke into the cabin and killed the girl while McCracken was out, in an effort to frame him. Davis said he would call Capt. Harry Nuffer of the sheriff's office to testify regarding conditions found in the cabin and also would recall Patty Hull's mother, Terry Hull, to testify that on the day that she saw her young daughter starting for the Buena Park theater where McCracken is claimed to have contacted the child, there was no bruises on the child's body or wrists. Bruises were found on her wrists when the body was discovered in a Live Oak canyon grave five days after her death. Earlier prosecution witnesses had testified to seeing McCracken lead the girl from the theater holding her by one wrist as she appeared unwilling to accompany him. Attorney James M. Monroe of Santa Ana, although not yet formally associated with the defense, was seated beside Chula at the defense counsel table today, apparently ready to present motions to the court when the state rested its case, to have the criminal proceedings against McCracken set aside and his case handled as a sexual psychopath. Under such proceedings if he should be declared a sexual psychopath, he would be committed to an institution to receive treatment. The defense has announced that it will require about four hours to present the motions.
