FAVOR RETURN TO JAPAN OF SOME OF PRE- ISLANDS Washington, June top U. S. officials now favor the return to Japan of some of her prewar island possessions, it was learned today. Islands involved include some of the Ryuku chain stretching from Formosa to the four main islands of Japan. Okinawa, now a Bastion in the U.

S. Pacific defense line, would not be affected. Secretary of State Dean Acheson disclosed last January that the United States, "at the proper time," would ask the United Nations for a trusteeship over the Ryukyus. Some of Acheson's advisers indicated, that they do not consider American control of the entire chain essential to American security. They believe the trusteeship can be confined to Okinawa and outlaying islands required for auxiliary bases, radar stations and other purposes.

They suggested that the northernmost islands, including the relatively large islands of Tane Ga Shima and Yaku Shima, could be returned to Japan. The latter two islands lie north of the 30th parallel. According to some definitions, they are not part of the Ryukyu group, but for practical purposes U. S. officials apply the term "Ryukyus" to all islands between Formosa and Japan proper.

Under terms of the Japanese surrender, the victorious allies limited Japan's sovereignty to the four main islands of Honshu, Hokkaido, Kyrushu and Shikoku and "such minor islands as we determine." The American attitude on this and other issues which must be settled in any Japanese peace treaty 1s swayed by a conviction among top State Department officials that Japan must emerge as a strongly anti-Communist and pro-western nation. Consequently, the overall Ameri- can position on the peace settlement now being hammered out apparently will be designed to win as much favor with the Japanese people as possible without infriging minimum American Security requirements. There are strong indications this formula will influence the decision on retaining military bases in Japan as a deterrent to any threat of Sovlet aggression. Few, If any, U. S.

observers believe that Russia or Communist China will be parties to treaty negotiations in the foreseeable future. The best that is hoped for is a "separate peace" with the non-Communist allies. The Japanese foreign ministry stated yesterday that such a separate peace would be acceptable NAME FORMER GOP CHAIRMAN ATTORNEY FOR U. S. ATOM SPY Philadelphia, June Republican National Chairman John D.

M. Hamilton will serve as defense counsel for accused atomic spy Harry Gold. Hamilton, who directed Alf Landon's presidential campaign in 1940, accepted a court appointment yesterday after a lengthy conference with Gold, Federal Judge James P. McGranery, Arthur Cornelius, head of the FBI here, and U. S.

Marshals office representatives. Hamilton's appointment was made by McGranery at the request of Gold who asked that his counsel be one who would "not make a show, have no radical connections, and no leftist or pinkish background whatsoever." The 39 year old Philadelphia scientist, first American to face the death penalty for atomic spying, has indicated he will plead guilty at an extradition hearing on June 12. It is expected that if brought to New York to face the atomic spying charge he will retain Hamilton, who will serve without pay.

A PAGE TWO Open June 5 HARDWICK'S. 800 Spring Street Finley Paul Hardwick Barber (Formerly Hufnagle Barber Shop) DISMISS APPLICATION FOR RADIO PERMIT BY LORAIN JOURNAL Washington, June (U.P) The Federal Communications Commission has dismissed the application of the Lorain Journal Co. for Class A FM radio permit. The Journal company is headed by S. A.

Horvitz, Cleveland, and publishes the Lorain (O.) Journal. The FCC said the request was dismissed because of the company's refusal to previously sell advertising to other present radio stations in Lorain county. The only other station in the county is WEOL in Elyria and Lorain. The application was turned down by the FCC Jan. 10, 1948, and the district court of appeals upheld the FCC's decision in 1949.

Yesterday's FCC action completes the case. In other action affecting Ohio stations, the FCC: Deleted the license for FM station of Tiffin Broadcasting Tiffin, for failure to file renewal application. Received the application of the Athens (O.) Broadcasting Co. for a station to operate in 1850 kc, one kw, daytime. TO SET OPENING DATE FOR TRAINING SCHOOL Columbus, June H.

Lamneck, state welfare director, said Friday that an announcement may be made Monday on the opening date for the corrective training school at the Marion ordnance plant site. Lamneck and other officials of the department conferred yesterday with Arthur L. Glattke, superintendent of corrections, and Laymolne Green, head of the Scloto training school. Construction and remodeling of the Scioto site has been underway for several weeks following permission from the Federal government to change the use of the plant to a training school for first offenders up to the age of 25. The state's early deed to the plant and land limited its use to a vocational school for juvenile offenders up to the age of 18.

Lamneck was successful in securing a new deed from the general services administration in Washington limiting the broadened use of the property. Funds earmarked for the Grafton state reformatory were recently transferred to the Scioto fund giving the state an increased fund for remodeling the plant.

Barkley was at a loss for words. On instructions from congress, President had just handed him a huge gold medal for his "distinguished public service- -since 1913 as representative and senator, The 72-year-old Vice-President, famous everywhere as a man with a bon mot any occasion, had nothing to say--for a moment.

Finally he blurted: "I still don't know why they (copgress) a did. it." That broke the dam. Gazing fondly at the outsize medal- is 1 1-3 pounds of the government's best gold-1 -he added: "I appreciate the sentiment even more than the The President the act in goldened his office a crowd of Supreme Court justices, cabinet members, diplomats, and senators. Beaming at Barkley's side was his bride of seven months. Mr.

Truman began by saying he had handed over more medals than all other presidents put together. But none of the presentations gave him more pleasure than this one, he said. After Barkley got over his temporary shyness, the President caled on Chief Justice Fred M. Vinson to "tell the Vice-President as a fellow Kentuckian why he got this award." Vinson told Barkley it was because of his "masterly performance as a legislator" and because he is "a real leader." Mrs. Barkley took a look at the medal, and si said the Vice-President's likeness on one side "is good of you, Dear, but it is not as good looking as you are." Barkley remarked that a Kentuckian had suggested that the medal ought to have the likeness of the late Man O'War on the side opposite Barkley's.

The suggestion was overruled. But Mrs. Barkley gazing raptly at her husband's golden profile, commented, "there's the real Man O' War." LOW-COST HOUSING TRIED IN SEATTLE AND WORKS OUT By PETER HAYES United Press Staff Correspondent Seattle, Wash. (U.P.) A $4,999 home is a Seattle builder's bid to capture the -cost housing market here. According to officers of Budget Homes, the four-room, expandable homes being built at Mountlake Terrace 13 miles north of here is the most profitable venture they have ever undertaken.

To meet the demand for a cheap but durable home, the Seattle firm has "thrown away the book," says Vice-President Al LaPierre. Not that the company's mass-produced methods are particularly unique. They have been used by builders on Long Island, N. and in Los Angeles. But LaPierre claims that no other company has yet to put up a home to sell for $4,999 to equal his firm's.

"We had been building houses in the $8,750 to $9,950 range since before 1940," LaPierre said. "But in late 1948 and 1949 we made a comprehensive cost analysis of home building to see if we couldn't build a house aimed at the some 70 per cent of prospective home buyers we and everyone else were Land Bought Cheaply It was accomplished by buying cheap land 13 miles north of the city, buying materials in carload lots direct from the factory, no subcontracting except for plumbing, painting, floors and electrical wiring, and by deleting many of the costly frills in homebuilding. One of the features of the "DuraHome," as it's known, which LaPierre emphasizes is its expansion qualities. He said: "The majority of our buyers are World War II veterans in their middle twenties and early thirties. Most are recently married.

With an eye on the nation's rising birth rate we figured that a young couple would need an inexpensive home to start THE WIND MILL INN Home Cooked Foods and Delicious Pies FRIED CHICKEN STEAKS SHRIMP OYSTERS CHOPS FISH OPEN 7 DAYS A WEEK 9 A.

Crowell said today. The state charged that Hufford was the father of a 19-year-old Wytheville baby. The girl's name was not revealed. Hufford listened calmly to the charges to the girl's testimony that she and Hufford were intimate last July 6. "It's impossible," Hufford said.

"I'm a girl." There was a brief pause while Hufford submitted to a medical examination in another room. Paul emerged as Pauline. The charge was promptly dropped. Pauline Hufford told Crowell that her mother began dressing her as a boy when she was a baby and she had masqueraded as a boy ever since. She even dated girls-including the plaintiff.

HICKENLOOPER HITS JUSTICE DEPARTMENT Washington, June Bourke, B. Hickenlooper, Friday challenged a Justice Department denial that any wartime secrets were contained in stolen Amerasia documents recovered by the FBI and OSS. He said he was "amazed" by the statement of James M. McInerney, chief of the department's criminal division, and was at a loss to explain it. "I would hate to think that Mr.

McInerney would lend himself and his official position to a conspiracy to conceal this infirmation and to thwart an honest investigation of the facts," he senator said. Up to "a few days ago," he said, wartime secrets "of a most serious and vital nature," were in the Amerasia files. A senate foreign relations subcommittee, of which Hickenlooper is a member, is investigating the five-year-old Amerasia case as part of its inquiry into charges by Sen. Joseph McCarthy, that the State epartment is overrun by Communists. Republicans have accused the administration of trying to hush up the case with a "whitewash." The FBI and the office of strategic services found hundreds of government documents cached away in the New York offices of the Amerasia magazine in 1945.

Three staff members of the publication and three government employes were arrested on charges of stealing the papers. Two were fined and the other four were freed. Hickenlooper said that despite McInerney's denial the documents contained information of the wartime disposition of U. S. naval units and confidential communications from the late President Franklin D.

Roosevelt to Generalissimo Chiang Kai-Shek. GEAUGA JURIST MUM ON GAMBLING CASE Chardon, June Geauga county common pleas Judge William K. Thomas Friday refused to comment specifically on the Pettibone Club case, one of the spots high on Gov. Frank J. Lausche's anti-gambling campaign.

The 39-year-old Bainbridge lawyer was appointed yesterday, by Lausche to serve the unexpired term of Judge Harlan A. Sperry who died recently. When asked if he would comment on the Pettibone case now under consideration in Geauga county, Thomas said, "no." My only comment would be that I'll take an oath to uphold all the laws of the state and you know what the laws are on gambling." "Every citizen has a right to justice according to law and to Justice which is administered promptly, humanely, without preferment and without any fear of consequence," Thomas said. "I shall endeavor to carry out these essential Democratic principles." In naming Thomas, Lausche passed over unanimous recommendation of the Geauga county bar association which had boosted Probate Judge Harry Richmond for the post. Thomas' appointive term will expire Dec.

31. EATON AUTOMOBILE CO. TO OPEN IN ENGLAND Cleveland, June 3. (U.P.) A new $1,000,000 plant of Eaton Automotive Products, will open formally in London, tomorrow, it was announced here Friday. The new plant will have 75,000 square feet, of floor space and will manufacture precision machined engine parts for Canadian trade.

Eaton Automotive, a subsidiary of the Eaton Mfg. Co. of Cleveland, has been manufacturing in Canada since 1938 in its Windsor, plant. Part of the million-dollar investment for the new building was f1- nanced by Canadian sale of $600,000 in 31 per cent first mortgage bonds. SATURDAY, JUNE 3, 1950 with but as more children were born, would Id want to expand their first home rather than move to a larger place." No Basem*nts By next month 205 homes will have been built on the 51-acre Mountlake Terrace.

There also will be a 30-store shopping center, plus a grade school. The homes built on lots averaging 65 by 110 feet are constructed of building blocks and have no basem*nts. Twelve different models, designed by an architect, are offered and a buyer has Lat least 20 units to choose from. Budget Homes, also has a well- developed incentive program to induce new buyers to do their own landscaping. A total of $4,100 in cash prizes will be offered this year for the best landscaping jobs.

Other methods used by the firm to help the buyers improve their grounds include buying peatmoss in carload lots and selling it cut-rate and throwing in a flowering plum tree if the home owner buys a driveway culvert from the firm. DAD THINKS HIS SON WOULD BE 'SWELL' AS U.S. PRESIDENT By HARMAN W. NICHOLS United Press Staff Correspondent Washington, June have at hand a letter from a father who thinks his boy would make a swell President of the United States. The father is C.

H. Sparks of Franewing, Tenn. He is plugging Frank H. Sparks, his son. Dad does all of the talking in this piece.

The first Sparks thinks that as a politician and vote getter, his lad has no peer. Particularly in his appeal to the girls. He loves the ladies, and from all reports from Tennessee way they feel that way, too. As his pop put: it: "He's a killer with the women folks. He is a master of subtle flattery.

He can play on the listener's emotions like Heifitz on his fiddle." As for party affiliatio: 5, it's any old party for our man. But, in his way of thinking, the party comes first and the devil, or whoever, can have the hindmost. Our candidate has his ideas about the situation. forelen, forget about the whole business as something too hot and complicated to handle. As for national affairs, he says that the only -jerk he would be interested in would be one Frank H.

Sparks, who would draw a regular paycheck for just being F. H. S. This paycheck, according to his blueprint, would be the only check issued by the government and would save us tax-givers a lot of dough. Our man has everything all figured out.

Everybody but the President would shift for himself. The Army and Navy would be paid off in beer and pretzels, co*kes, smokes, and convertibles. No checks, the autos donated by dealers. As for taxes well, we'd have a crap game around the country every Saturday night with the Sparks gang conducting things--with a small cut from each pot to take care of the President's salary. All other taxes would be abolished.

I read Daddy Sparks' letter with great interest. But apparently he has never been to Washington. He doesn't know anything about red tape. If his son campaigned on such a platform he would go down squirming. Nobody in this town could possibly shift for himself.

The law would come running to bust any crap game or giveaways for convertibles to the Army and Navy people. And you've got to have some idea about foreign problems and labor and industry and the business of whether we ought to sell peanuts and wheat or give 'em away. Sparks, lets me down in the last line of his letter. He says a lot of things about squaring a circle. His boy, the "man" he has in mind for candidate, was born in 1945 and knows what war is likein case we have another one.

The "candidate" is all of five now. TRUCK DRIVER DIES IN BLAZING WRECKAGE Carlisle, June 3. (U.P) An Ohio truck was burned to death Friday the Pennsylvania driver, turnpike when the gasoline tank of his tractor-trailer exploded after the vehicle crashed into a gasoline truck.
