Heavy Texas Windstorm Wind Wrecks Giant B-36 Bomber; Ten Others Damaged at Carswell FORT WORTH, Tex. (P)—One death, 13 injuries, one giant B-36 bomber wrecked and ten others heavily damaged was the count today from the multi-million dollar swipe of a windshorm here last night. The storm hit Carswell Air Force base, home of the big B-36's, and the nearby plant of Consolidated Vultee Aircraft, makers of the B-36, with the worst of its fury. Carswell announced one of the 3 million dollar planes was destroyed, six others heavily damaged and a number of others nicked by the storm. Convair said that nine of the giant bombers parked on its ramp were damaged, four heavily. Damage General The storm uprooted trees, toppled smaller buildings and tipped over numerous smaller planes at Carswell and Convair and in the area around them. Officials at both places said it was too early for a dollars and cents estimate of damage. A civilian, Mrs. W. C. Connor, 44, was killed when her automobile was struck by a sign board blown down by the storm. Ten other civilians in the vicinity were reported hurt. Capt. Burton Wilder, base public information officer, said several buildings suffered "severe damage" when the winds struck shortly before dark. Maj. Gen. Samuel E. Anderson, commanding general of the Eighth Air Force, estimated damage to planes at the base at 25 per cent. The B-36, which has been called America's Vatom bomb carrier," is the Air Force's largest, longest-ranging bomber in service and was designed to carry 10,000 pounds of bombs on a 10,000-mile mission. tee Aircraft Corp., which manufactures the huge six-engine intercontinental B-36s. Aircraft plant officials said power was disrupted and extensive damage done to service docks at which the big planes are serviced. Wind blew the tail from one of the giant bombers and left it shattered in a ditch. Others were strewn about the ramps and taxiways of the base. Motorist Takes Summary Action Augustus B. Kendrick last night experienced something new in modern traffic hazards. He was entering Anaheim on Anaheim-Olive rd., at about 8:45 p.m. yesterday when a large car with two men in it forced him off the road into the Texaco service station on the northeast corner of Anaheim-Olive rd. and Placentia ave. Reaching into Kendrick's car, one of the men removed the ignition keys, accused Kendrick of "cutting in on me" this side of Corona, both men got into their car and drove off. Kendrick called local police who found his keys for him at Center Iranian Paper Assails HS' On Oil Storm TEHRAN, Iran (P)—The nationalist newspaper Shahed day for joining Prime Mishchil in their joint pro-ute. The paper said Truman told the British the "only open to them is unconditional render to the rights of the Iranian people." The editorial was the first mention by an important news here since U.S. Ambassador Henderson and British Colonel d'Affaires George Middleton omitted the proposal to Prime Minister Mohammed Mossadegh Saturday. The aged Nation leader at once rejected it very well. Mossadegh has called plant's lower house, the Majl meet Sept. 10 to help him for a formal reply to the prop Iran, like the rest of the Mo world, currently is observing portant religious holidays. Shahed was particularly pleased with the American loan 10 million dollars if would agree to let the international court of justice arbitrate the Anglo-Iran Oil Co.'s call for compensation for its nationized properties in the country. "We request Henderson," paper wrote, "to inform his sister this country is not for sale any price. We are willing to our oil, but we cannot trade terms of our independence, determine the fate of our rogue." Three Die from Accidents In Orange County Traffic Two traffic deaths occurred in Orange county over the Labor Day holiday, as 54 persons were reported injured in 48 traffic accidents, according to official records. Another victim of a Thursday crash in Santa Ana died Saturday. Cpl. Erwin Hoof, 23, El Toro Marine, died late yesterday of injuries received shortly after midnight Sunday in a crash between cars driven by Pvt.

IT WON'T BITE — Earnie Moeller assures lovely JoAnn Faust, Miss Anaheim of 1952, as he introduces her to a Kachina doll, handmade by Hopi Indians of Arizona. Moeller brought several of the grotesque figures back from a two-week trek through Arizona and New Mexico to demonstrate some of the possible costumes which may be made to go with the American Indian theme of the 1952 Anaheim Hallowe'en Pageant Parade. The dolls are made in the likeness of men, supposed, according to tradition, to have brought food and water to the Indians. T. Lamar Caudle Called into Closed Session by House Investigators WASHINGTON (UP)—House investigators called T. Lamar Caudle into a closed-door session today to tell about his handling of tax cases before he was fired as an assistant attorney general last Nov. 18. Caudle's name figured in two cases which came under the scrutiny of a House judiciary subcommittee last week. The first was the alleged attempt to "whitewash" a grand jury investigation in St. Louis, which eventually led to the indictment and conviction of Internal Revenue Collector James P. Finnegan on charges of misconduct in office. Finnegan is appealing. The second was a war fraud case against a Detroit man which languished without prosecution for six years and finally was dropped. "Engebled by age." Caudle was in charge of tax prosecutions for the Justice department at the time both cases were pending. Whether he will appear later at a public hearing depends largely said Rep. Keating R-NY, on what develops at this afternoon's closed-door session. Keating is ranking minority member of the subcommittee. Caudle, before leaving his home at Wadesboro, N.C., last weekend, said he would be "delighted to cooperate with the committee as I have with other committees." Russians Mum On 5-Year Plan MOSCOW (UP)—Wide discussion of the proposed agenda for the congress of the Soviet Communist party next month were continuing today in factories and organizations throughout the country but thus far no criticisms have been reported. The Communist party news paper Pravda announced a week ago it would open its pages to both favorable and critical articles on the proposed five-year plan and changes in the party statutes which are up for approval at the congress opening Oct. 5. To date, however, Pravda has not published any items taking a negative attitude toward the proposals. Windstorm Wreaks Heavy Damage Iranian Paper Massails HST Oil Stand EHRAN, Iran (AP)—The Nationalist newspaper Shahed bitterly assailed President Truman to join Prime Minister Churchill in their joint proposal and the Anglo-Iranian oil disruption. The paper said Truman should be the British the "only way to them is unconditional surer to the rights of the Iranian people." The editorial was the first comment by an important newspaper since U.S. Ambassador Loy Anderson and British Charge Safaires George Middleton submitted the proposal to Prime Minister Mohammed Mossadegh last Friday. The aged Nationalist writer at once rejected it verbalized. ANAHEIM Daily THE ANAHEIM GAZETTE WAS ESTABLISHED IN 1870 AS A WHITE VOLUME LXXXXI ANAHEIM, ORANGE COUNTY, CALIFORNIA, TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 'Buy in Anaheim' Campaign Up as Vote Total Exceeded Tremendous Vote Volume Forces Two-Day Lag in Daily Tabulation With "Buy in Anaheim" vote totals growing by huge leaps every day, The Gazette this weekend lost another day in tabulating the votes. Consequently, today's standings include only those votes cast up to and including last Thursday. Bethel Baptist church retained its leading position with 234,900 votes, followed closely by Zion Lutheran church, 222,300, and St. Michael's Episcopal church, 214,900. St. Michael's had been trailing farther behind, but regained lost ground with the biggest gain for the day, 118,300. The total of votes cast Thursday was 304,700, the second largest recorded to date, for a grand total of 2,112,200. The two-day lag in tabulation will continue throughout the "Buy in Anaheim" campaign, with tallies from Aug. 29 and 30 to be published tomorrow, and today's votes to be published on Thursday, Sept. 4. This will be necessary because of the tremendous amount of time it takes to assemble and verify each and every vote cast. Each day's votes are carefully recorded, kept separate as pub Michael's Episcopal church, 214,900. St. Michael's had been trailing farther behind, but regained lost ground with the biggest gain for the day, 118,300. The total of votes cast Thursday was 304,700, the second largest recorded to date, for a grand total of 2,112,200. The two-day lag in tabulation will continue throughout the "Buy in Anaheim" campaign, with tallies from Aug. 29 and 30 to be published tomorrow, and today's votes to be published on Thursday, Sept. 6. This will be necessary because of the tremendous amount of time it takes to assemble and verify each and every vote cast. Each day's votes are carefully recorded, kept separate as published, and are subject to verification and final audit at the end of the campaign at midnight, Nov. 15. The Gazette is aware that many votes are being held out and have not been turned in for counting. These hold-out votes become known when merchants cooperating in the "Buy in Anaheim" campaign report certain sales made, but the sales fail to show in the daily tabulations. The Gazette understands that many organizations do not wish to disclose their actual vote count until the last minute. This may or may not be a good practice, but it will make the final count a very difficult one to verify, and if the practice continues, it may require a week or more to obtain the final result. The Gazette suggests that votes be placed in the ballot boxes at the earliest possible moment. Several organizations are now using rubber stamps to sign their votes because of the tremendous volume being cast for them, and some require the services of a volunteer worker to get them ready for placing in the vote boxes.

He said a wholesale clean-out was needed to restore decency, honesty and integrity to the national government. Top-to-Bottom' "This Washington mess," he said, "is not a one-agent mess or a one-bureau mess or a one department mess—it is a top-to-bottom mess." The general declared it was enough to make Americans 'hang our heads in shame." The tone of the speech fulfilled advance word from his regional campaign headquarters in New York that he would "pull no punches" on his Dixie trip. Some of his warmest admirers had complained that Eisenhower's campaigning was too soft. The general's aides said, however, that he had planned deliberately not to fire his ammunition too soon. Eisenhower named no names in Santa Ana Youth Killed in Gun Battle with Rookie Policeman EVERLY HILLS (F)—Trapped here he could drive away from scene of a $10,000 holdup, a long gunman was shot to death night in a duel with a rookie ceeman. The dead man was identified as old Lewis, 23. Two addresses were found among his belongings. W. First st., Santa Ana, and Entrada dr., Santa Monica. The policeman, Rollin R. Hepler, of 1248 Appleton Way, Venice, wounded in the right arm. Ara, Nathaniel Robbins, a widowed police a gunman rang her bell and demanded "Give me your money." She said she died over $12 in cash and $00 worth of jewelry. As the man fled, she telephoned head-ters. Hepler got the radio call and arrived at the Robbins home in time to force Lewis' car to the curb. He said Lewis fired first, through the windshield. The shot hit Hepler in the arm. The officer's third shot struck Lewis in the chest. Santa Ana' police said Lewis resided with his father Ray G. Lewis at 13822 Gershon pl., west of Santa Ana. He had no local crime record but was reported by Camp Pendlton authorities as a straggler from the Marine Corps, May 24, 1951, and a week later, on May 30, was listed as a deserted. The Beverly Hills officer who shot him is a son of an Orange Park Acres couple, Mr. and Mrs. Russell Hepler. Hepler is assistant secretary of the Orange County Farm bureau. Pay for Stupidity' "You pay for the incompetence, stupidity and corruption on the part of those who have been caught and those who have not been caught." Eisenhower said. He said newspapers reported "we are getting two airfields in North Africa for the price of five" and that the papers carried countless items concerning waste. The general asserted: "If you are as slick and tired of all this as I am; if you are as tired as I am of picking up your newspaper every morning and reading about a fresh government scandal, then let's get together and restore decency in the nation's capital." Tombstones and Vacant Lots In his bid for southern support, the Republican nominee said some Democratic spokesmen were "counting the votes of the south ahead of time along with the cemetery tombstones and the vacant lots that they carry in the election rolls in some of the cities they run up north." Eisenhower said he had been hearing "the wild exultance of the rebel yell." They are hearing it in Washington, too." he said. "And they don't like it. They like voters who follow orders."
