Sen. Henry Cabot Lodge of Massachusetts, chairman of Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower's campaign advisory committee, said the selection of Sen. John J. Sparkman of Alabama as the Democratic vice presidential nominee shows the Democratic party intends to do nothing constructive about civil rights. Sen. Richard M. Nixon of California, Eisenhower's GOP vice presidential running mate, told newsmen in Fresno, Calif., however, that Sparkman is not a true Southern candidate and is known to be completely pro-Truman. Chairman Arthur Summerfield of the GOP National Committee rubbed more salt in the wounds yesterday with the assertion that Stevenson and Sparkman are "hand-picked candidates of President Truman" and will be "expected to carry on the Truman tradition." Sparkman, in Washington, said he will have something to say about civil rights in response to a series of questions in a telegram from Rep. Powell, New York-Negro Democrat. At the Illinois capital, Gov. Stevenson made a few remarks on civil rights issues in his first news conference since the Democrats County’s Building Totals Boosted By New Schools Construction of school buildings in three communities boosted the building permit valuations for the county's unincorporated territory during the past week to $892,-975, according to records of County Building Inspector Charles Donohue.

Political Races for '52 Will Be Costliest in History of Nation By EDWIN B. HAAKINSON WASHINGTON (P)—One thing appeared certain today about the national political races this year: the campaigns will be the costliest and best financed of any ever staged in the United States. Total expenses probably will run well into the millions of dollars because 1, the price of campaigning, like everything else, has soared, and 2, the campaigns themselves will be elaborate. Chairmen of both the Republican and Democratic National committee already have made it clear they are out to win-regardless of costs. Top Limit Set Technically, federal laws fix a Ike Will Attend Indian Ceremonial DENVER. (P)—Gen Dwight D.

But the laws are full of loopholes. For example, there is no limit upon the number of national committees that may support a presidential candidate. And each such committee is entitled to collect and spend a full three million. Arthur E. Summerfield, new chairman of the Republican National committee, parried questions of reporters here yesterday on how much Republicans would spend, or where paying new canvass staff officials. Cost Secondary Summerfield explained that his campaign strategy, in behalf of presidential nominee Dwight Eisenhower and other Republican candidates, is to first shape winning plan and organization—and then figure the costs. Earlier Summerfield listed plans for not one but two special campaign trains; speeches in all parts of the nation by Eisenhower; vice presidential candidate Sen. Richard Nixon; Sen. Taft R-Ohio and other top-flight GOP campaigners; special GOP units to attract labor, agriculture and other large voter groups; and similar costly plans. Wildman, Santa Ana architects who designed the building, say the style is "modified Mediterranean." Outer walls are Roman brick and stucco, the roof flat tile.

The long secret report by the federal bureau of investigation claimed documentary proof that the Communist party in the United States "teaches and advocates the overthrow and destruction of the U.S. government by force and violence." With minor changes in its language, this is the charge against the Communist party leaders on trial here and in Los Angeles. Lawyers defending the 15 second string Communist leaders on trial in New York and the 14 California Communist party leaders on trial in the west said the FBI report was designed to influence the juries.

Farouk No Longer A Wealthy Man ISLE OF CAPRI (UP)—Egypt's ex-King Farouk declared today "I am no longer a rich man." He denied he had sneaked out a fortune when he was ousted from Egypt and declared he had none tucked away in foreign banks. Nevertheless, he added: "By the standards of the very poor, I am still to be envied. Addressing more than 100 newsmen and photographers in the first public statement since he was toppled from his ancient Nile throne in a military revolt last Saturday, Farouk said he had made no plans about where to live out his life. Farouk, who arrived here Tuesday, asked that he, his wife ex-Queen Narriman and their six-month-old son, Egypt's newly-proclaimed King Ahmed Fuad II, be allowed to live here in peace. Three daughters by a former marriage are also here with him. Estimates of Farouk's wealth have ranged from 150 to 300 million dollars. Much of this, however, was in Egyptian real estate.

Red Aluminum Factory Saturated With Bombs; All Planes Return The Air Force today admitted yesterday's mass attack of 63 superforts on a single communist aluminum plant near the Manchurian border was a "calculated effort to force the hand of stalling communist truce negotiators." The raid, the biggest overnight assault of the war, saw 63 B-29's pour 660 tons of bombs on the 12½ acre factory of the Oriental Light Metals Co., 10 miles southeast of Sinulju. Flak from Border Pilots reported flak from the Manchurian as well as the Korean side of the border, about four miles from the metals plant. It was the northernmost penetration of the year by B-29s. Airman 2c Julius W. Melntel, Wheeling, W. Va., was credited unofficially with shooting down a propellor-driven night fighter that rose to defend the sprawling target. Col. Winton R. Close, Los Angeles, who directed the raid, said almost every other bomber was attacked by communist fighters. A bombardier, Capt. Ralph R.

Synthetic Fuel Outlook Bright WASHINGTON. (AP) — Secretary of the Interior Chapman said today the outlook for profitable WASHINGTON. (UP) — One report says Vice President Barkley is in line for a cabinet post if Gov. Adlai Stevenson, the Democratic nominee, is elected president in November. A conflict report is that the Veep plans to write a book, travel a lot and must "have lots of fun." The source of both reports declined to be quoted by name. The report that Barkley planned to take life easy came from a friend here. The Cincinnati Times-Star quoted an associate of the vice president as saying Barkley might become secretary of the treasury under Stevenson, but also was interested in becoming attorney general. Gov. Stevenson told a news conference in Springfield, Ill., yesterday he has no idea about his cabinet and will say nothing until after the election. Col. Winton R. Close, Los Angeles, who directed the raid, said almost every other bomber was attacked by communist fighters. A bombardier, Capt. Ralph R. Scarle, 3546 Griggs Road, Houston, Tex., said "it was like high noon all of a sudden," when "eight searchlights locked on us at the start of the run and kept with us for the longest five minutes I've ever spent." Psychological Brig. Gen. Wiley D. Ganey, head of the U. S. Fifth Air Force Bomber Command, predicted the blow would have a psychological impact on the communists. The target was saturated with 500-pound bombs, some of which will not explode for hours or even days. The plant area had been showered with leaflets for almost two months; warning non-combatants to stay away because it would be bombed. Original plans for the raid called for the barracks fence to be spared for fear civilian workers might be living in the troop barracks, the Air Force said. But in the darkness it was possible some of the Allied bombs might have struck the barracks.

Wood, 10702 Sycamore st., Stanton, collided with a Santa Fe streamliner. Wood was traveling south on Placentia ave., when he saw the crossing wlg-wag signal swinging and applied his brakes.

Santa Ana police arrested Augustine Ruiz Aguirre, 18, of Huntington Beach, when they found that he had been drinking, and had beer in his car, following Latest Atomic Research Progress Announced in Report to Congress By FRANK CAREY WASHINGTON. (AP)—Precious uranium ore for America's ever-expanding atomic program will soon be coming from two new foreign sources—South Africa and Australia—the United States revealed today in a report also disclosing substantial progress in developing improved atomic weapons during the past six months. The atomic energy commission Anaheim Marine Downed in Korea M/Sgt. John T. Cain, whose wife, Ann, and son, John Laurie, months, live at 227 E. Susanne t., Anaheim, has been reported missing in action by the defense department. Mrs. Cain, who came here about a year ago when her husband was transferred to El Toro marine air station, said Sgt. Cain was serving in Korea as a marine observation aircraft pilot when he was shot down over enemy territory July 18. He has been in Korea since April, 1952. AEC in its 12th semi-annual report to congress further disclosed that additional uranium may come from new facilities in Canada—long an American supplier—and that new sources within the United States itself are nearly ready for initial production. Implying a vastly increased tempo for its entire atomic enterprise, the AEC revealed that its plants for producing atomic fissionable materials for explosives and other uses had at times been pushed even beyond their designed operating capacity — even as new ones are being built and still others are in prospect under the recently approved 3½ billion dollar expansion program. The AEC'S report to congress also listed: 1. Progress in the development of atomic propulsion for aircraft—with certain phases of design and development work having gained momentum in the past half-year. 2. Continuance of a project to build a second type of atomic engine for possible use in a submarine—even as work progresses on the hydrogen bomb. Elsewhere in the county, three persons were injured in Santa Ana traffic accidents yesterday afternoon, one driver being arrested following a crash near the county hospital in which two women were hurt. Santa Ana police arrested Augustine Ruiz Aguirre, 18, of Huntington Beach, when they found that he had been drinking, and had beer in his car, following collision of his car with a car driven by Helen A.

The woman driver and her passenger, Angelino Rodriguez, 41, of El Paso, Tex., received minor injuries and were taken to the hospital by Aguirre. Aguirre, said police, also had three knives in the glove compartment of his car. He explained that he had been to his sister's home in Placentia, and was taking the knives home to his mother, his sister having borrowed them. Aguirre was booked at the county jail. Donald Dora, 2, of Artesia, received minor injuries when he ran into the street on W. Second st., near Flower st., Santa Ana, and was struck by a car driven by Lucy Aguilar Luna, 30, 310 N. Bristol st., Santa Ana. Isabell Mary Clifford, 63, of 520 E. Palmyra ave., Orange, escaped injury yesterday afternoon when her car collided with a car driven by Gilbert W. McFarland, 39, 1106 E.
