Soviet 'Hymn of Hate' Propaganda Backfires; Start Back-Peddling WASHINGTON (UP) — State Department officials believe that the Russians, in their hymn of hate against the United States, have hit a sour note which their propaganda directors are suddenly trying to soft pedal. The situation created an opening for a U.S. propaganda counterattack which the Voice of America has been pressing for some weeks. Here is what happened: The Soviet Union has always tried to present itself to the world as a friend of all peoples and an enemy only of small groups of "warmongers." "Enemies of peace," "Wall Street imperialists" and the like. Army Tabbed Cannibals For many months and particularly since the beginning of their charges that American forces were using germ warfare in Korea, however, the Soviet propagandists have attacked the whole American Army as an army of "monsters" and "cannibals" guilty of committing the most violent atrocities. They also have assailed many aspects of American life such as sports, politics, business and social activities. Taking all these elements together, the Voice of America began telling the world that the Soviet Union was conducting a "hate America" campaign, blackening the reputation of a whole people for the first time in Soviet history. Back-Tracking In recent days two Soviet publications, "News" and "New Times," have carried articles disavowing any such campaign, and re-stating—the familiar line that the Russians love everybody. Similar denials and protests have been voiced by Russian radio commentators usually in English or some other non-Russian language. One of the interesting things about the denials, authorities said Anaheim union high school board last night decided to present a $2,500,000 bond issue to the Nov. 4 ballot for approval of local voters, contingent upon approval of the election date by the Orange county clerk. The bonds, if passed, will be used for the construction of a junior high school plant on a 4-acre site being purchased at Orange and Western aves. From Mr. and Mrs. Lee Habener for $74,000. The rest the funds would be used for the purchase and expansion of the Fremont school facilities on W. Center st., to be converted to junior high school use. Agreement between the AUHS board and that of the elementary school district has not been reached on a purchase price for the Fremont plant. The two boards were to have met jointly last night to discuss the issue but the elementary board poised to join the meeting until Monday night. Previous negotiations produced a price set by the elementary board of $1,032,000 for the school figure derived by taking an average of separate appraisals on the plant by the two boards. The AUHS board countered with an offer of replacing the Fremont buildings for the elementary district with a school plant capable of handling 550 students, which is the capacity of the Fremont plant according to an estimate of the AUHS board. Cost of the replacement would be about $700,000 the amount offered by AUHS. James A. Baker, president of the AUHS board, pointed out last night that the elementary district invested only $196,000 in the Fremont school, the rest being supplied by the PWA. Insanity Plea Considered by Rupp's Defense SANTA ANA (UP) — A plea of innocence and perhaps a plea of innocence by reason of instability will be entered by William F.

Back-Tracking In recent days two Soviet publications, "News" and "New Times," have carried articles disavowing any such campaign, and re-stating—the familiar line that the Russians love everybody. Similar denials and protests have been voiced by Russian radio commentators usually in English or some other non-Russian language. One of the interesting things about the denials, authorities said today, is that they have been directed toward the world outside of Russia while the hate campaign has been heaviest in publications and radio broadcasts in the Russian language, directed to the Russian people.

Chandler of Santa Ana, and Mavor Roy Seabridge of Huntington Beach was named. League members and guests will meet Aug. 21 at Culver City Memorial hall with the Los Angeles county League of Cities. NEW YORK — Frank Costello, underworld gambling kingpin surrendered today to begin serving his first prison term in 37 years. Costello, who had been free in $5000 bail was convicted of contempt of the United States Senate for refusing to answer questions concerning his finances before the Senate Crime Committee at a televised hearing in New York in March, 1951. Dapper as Always Dapper as always, the 62-year-old gambler wore a light blue flannel pencil-striped suit and light blue-figured tie as he stepped from an automobile and entered the Federal Court House to begin an 18 months' sentence. Courthouse attachés said the sentence probably will be served in the Federal Correction Institute at Danbury. Conn. There, the fashion-plate and lavish tipper will be required to don drab dungarees and limit his expenditures to $10 a month, for such items as cigarettes and shaving supplies. Unconcerned Costello was smiling and appeared undisturbed but amiably declined to comment on how he felt about going to jail for the first time since serving a short term on a gun-carrying charge in 1915. But to questions concerning his health, he replied: "I feel fine, just fine." A milling throng gathered in a ground floor corridor of the court house to see Costello, who pushed his way through the court house crowd and cooled-asked directions to the United States Marshal's office. When he reached the office he turned to photographers and asked patiently: "Boys, what do you want me to do? You have many pictures." Then a deputy marshal appeared at the door, took him by the arm and escorted him into the office.
