U. S. Revises
Indictment in Sale
Of Surplus Plane
POCATELLO, Idaho, Nov. 13 —
(Special to the'Empire) — A re
vised indictment was filed in U.S.
District Court here today against!
S. B. Simmons, of Juneau, and Silas I
King, aircraft broker of Portland, |
Ore., ccr.it thing only a charge of i
depriving the United States of an!
alleged right to have a Grumman'
aircraft used for educational pur-,
poses which the Idaho State Edu- .
cation agency is alleged to have sold
to Alaska Coastal Airlines.
The previous indictment charged
the defendants with conspiring to
defraud by making a false statement j
in the application of the state edu
cation agency.
These charges were dismissed after
defendants filed motions and briefs
to strike portions of the indictment.
It appears no conspiracy, to moke
a false application that the property
would be used for educational pur
poses, could have included Simmon
and King as the application was
made in June. 1349, eight months
before they met the chairman of
the state educational agency who
signed the application.
Defendants briefs cited legal de
cisions to the effect that such sur
plus property became the property
of the state of Idaho upon de
livery to the state of such property
under the law in effect when the
state received the plane as a dona
tion for education use. The briefs ;
cite law saying that the plane was
not federal property four months
later when Alaska Coastal Airlines!
bought the aircraft.
Government attorneys were re- j
lieved of the necessity of arguing
these matters when the grand jury
dropped these charges. The re
maining legal question is whether
the United States, after donating
war surplus property for educational
use, can prosecute the persons buy
ing the property from the state on
charges of conspiracy to defraud the
government of a right to have such
property used for educational pur
poses.
The grand jury is still in session
investigating numerous sales of such '
property by the state of Idaho. The
state used such sales to finance the
cost of administering warehousing
and distributing the remainder of
its war surplus allottments to edu
cational and other state agencies.
WSCS MEETS WEDNESDAY
The afternoon group of the
Woman’s Society of Christian Serv
ice meets Wednesday afternoon at

cago.

'American
Guerrilla'
At 20th Century
Fighing a movie "war" can be
quite an expensive proposition ns
experience showed during the pro
duction of Twentieth Century-Fox’s
Technicolor adventure, “American
Guerrilla in the Philippines,” now
at the 20th Century Theatre.
This film, made entirely on the
actual locale, and starring Tyrone
Power and Micheline Prelle. was
adapted from the best-selling true
story brought back from the Pa
cific by famed correspondent and
novelist, Ira VVolfert.
“American Guerrilla” follows the
fantastic adventures of the sur
vivors of PT Squadron 3 through
the fall of Bataan and Corregidor,
during the three years they lived
and fought behind Japanese lines.
Coming tomorrow is "Colt 45,” a
Technicolor with Randolph Scott
and Ruth Roman.

BASKETBALL HOPES
Hopes are running high in the
Douglas basketball camp as six re
turning letter men and two reserves
have returned to* form the nucleus
of the 1951-52 court squad. Senior
Herb Riley, Juniors Tom Cashen,
John Jensen, Pat Wellington, Rich
ard Isaak, Soph Tony McCormick
are hold-overs along with reserves
Bob Johnson and Henry Stevens.
Several newcomers also show pro
mise.
Left handed Tony McCormick, at
left forward, is again expected to
do most of the scoring although
right forward Tom Cashen may also
develop into a high pointer. Pivot
man John Jensen, who tops G foot
3 inches is rapidly becoming a
mainstay under the backboards
along with guard Pat Wellington.
Richard Isaak, a smooth ball hand
ler is at the other guard post. Herb
Riley, equally at home at cither
guard or forward, will undoubtedly
work into a starting position after
he has had mare opportunity to
practice.
The Huskies meet the Alumni in
their opener on the home court,
November 21 and are expected to
put up a good battle against the
former Douglas stars. The alumni
squad includes Lou Bonnett and
Curtis -Bach who had a hand in
defeating Juneau several years ago,
and Frank and Harry Cashen who
played with the University of Alaska
several seasons.
The majorettes and band will also
make their 1951 debut during haif

Impossible to elieve!
It is very difficult to believe—but, each month, there are
literally thousands of people who pay as much for their •
motor cars as it would cost them to buy Cadillacs . . .
and, yet, they don’t get Cadillacs.
As we said, this is very hard to believe—but the
reasons for it make it more or less understandable.
In the first place, a great many people simply don’t
know what a Cadillac costs. They don’t understand that
the lowest-priced Cadillac actually costs less than certain
. models produced by numerous otner manufacturers.
They only know that Cadillac is the world’s most
renowned motor car—and they assume, from this, that
it must also be exclusively priced.
Too, some people get discouraged because they can’t
walk in and order a Cadillac and get immediate delivery
—as they can with so many other makes of cars.
This, too, is largely due to a failure to get all the facts
and think them tnrough to the inevitable conclusion.
You have to wait a while for a Cadillac because so
many people want one—and want it so badly that they are
Standard equipment, accessories and trim illustrated are subject to change without notice.
willing to wait for it. And that, in turn, is because Cadillac 'i
is recognized everywhere as the Standard of the World. j
So if you want a Cadillac—and research indicates Jr
that a vast percentage of motorists do—come in and ■ a
talk with us about it. . ‘C
We’ll give you the facts concerning comparative costs. i
And we will also talk frankly with you about delivery ]
dates, so you may know about what to anticipate. 7
You really owe it to vourself to do this. For, surely, -
you don’t want to pay the price of a Cadillac—and still jjjf
not get one! _»‘
<' |
• • •
If we already have your order for a Cadillac—stand •
firm in your conviction—for each day brings you closer
to your heart’s desire.
It is true, of course, that you can get quicker delivery
on other makes of cars. But, in all the world, there is no
other car like Cadillac.
So be patient—and you will have your reward! , '
