Boston won't be a "city" anymore.
Preliminary census figures re
leased showed New Boston dropped
in population from 6,024 in 1940 to
4,750 this year.
A "city needs to have 5,000
persons to qualify in that cate
gory. Because it fell below that
minimum, New Boston stands to
lose two councilmen, its city solici
tor, health board and relief of
fice but not until 1952 when their
terms expire. It will also cut police
men ana nremen oil civil service
and probably throw their pension
plans into the courts for a test of
their validty.
Accord Averts
British Columbia
Loggers' Strike
VANCOUVER, B. C, June 15
(CP) A strike threat was lifted
today from coastal timber stands,
backbone of British Columbia's ec
onomy, when representatives of 32,
000 coastal loggers agreed to con
tract proposals.
Agreement came none too soon.
Loggers and millworkers were due
to start walking out at the begin
ning of first day shifts. Settlement
was announced at 12:30 a. m.
(PDT),
The International Woodworkers
of America (C.I.O.-C.C.L.) lost its
down-the-line fight for a union ship.
But the loggers and millworkers
did win wage increases the 163
operators estimate will cost $7,000,
000 a year.
The I. W. A. accented what oner.
ators said was their "final offer"
12V4 cents an hour pay increase,
maintenance of membershin
clause and a five-day, 40-hour work
ween.
Original I.W.A. demands and
the union stuck by them to the
last minute were the content
ious union shop, a 17-cents-an-hour
salary hike and the five-day, 40-
hour week.
The pay boost brings the basic
rate in the industry to about $1.20

Secret Listening
Device Charged In
Case Of Wilsons
VANCOUVER, Wash., June 15
(JPt Attorneys for Utah and Tur
man Wilson charged Wednesday
that a listening device had been
secreted in the brothers' jail cell.
It violated the supposed confi
dential relationship between an at
torney ana nis client, irvui uww
man told reporters at a press con
ference, called at the noon recess
of court.
Half a dozen newspapers ana
radio reporters, with a photogra
pher, were denied access to the
cell to see if the microphone were
there, cniet Deputy neu jons mu
it wnulri not be orooer and dis
trict attorney DeWitt Jones agreed.
They offered to let the attorneys,
but not the press, in.
The district attorney, asxea u
there was a microphone in the
cell, said that he had no record
ings of conversations in the cell
and that no testimony based on any
listening devices would be intro
duced into the trial.
The Wilson brothers, charged
with the kidnap-slaying of Jo Ann
Dewey here last March, earlier to
day had told a reporter about the
microphone, Tney said tney naa
been suspicious for some time and
Turman said that Sunday he found
a microphone concealed in a venti
lator. He said that using a spoon as a
screw driver, he removed a screen
on the ventilator and saw the ml-
croohone.
Utah said that a montn ago ne
stook in his cell and rapidly worked
the zipper on his coveralls. That
slight sound, he said, brought a
jailor to his cell in a matter of
moments ana ne was searcnea,
That, he told the reporter, con
vinced him his suspicions were
correct and the search for the mi
crophone then was made.
Goodman and Sanford Clement,
attorneys for the Wilson brothers,
called the press conference today
to tell their story of the micro
phone. They said It was in place
as recently as this morning, and
had been in the cell during times
the Wilson brothers were allowed
to have visitors and when the pri
soners conferred with their attor
neys.

Peddlers' Ordinance
(Continued from page One)
listing one. Mayor Flegel told the
group yesterday it is not definite
whether tne existing ordinance win
be thrown out. However, he said,
some sort of ordinance will be
voted upon.
The matter was Drougnt to a
head at the last council meeting
when Roland West protested pay
ing the required $100 license fee,
while neighboring businesses were
not required to do so. West runs
a laundry concern located outside
the city limits. According to the
ordinance, such a concern must
pay the $100 fee if 'salesmen or
agents conduct door-to-door solici
tation. A legal explanation of the or-
inance was given merchants by
City Attorney Paul Geddes, who
said the rule was designed to ap
ply to all persons or concerns so-
iciting from place to place witnin
the city limits. He said different
licensing fees apply to the various
types of business in which appli
cant 'are engaged, but that cer
tain stipulations must be complied
with by. all concerns, local or
otherwise.
Geddes said applicants are asked
for a health certificate to indi
cate they are free of communi
cable diseases, photographs of all
salesmen or agents must be sub
mitted and each applicant is in
vestigated by the city police de
partment. The license is then
granted following payment of the
tees.
A solicitor's fee of $1 applies to
11 representatives of businesses
located within the city and also
to established local concerns, Ged
des said. Certain fee exemptions
are noted in the cases of chari
table organizations, businesses in
volving interstate commerce and
wholesale salesmen, but these must
comply with the remainder of the
ordinance.

Outline Case Of
Wilson Brothers
. VANCOUVER, Wash. June 15
(JP) The state called more wit
nesses today in its case against
the Wilson brothers, accused of
lugging a strange girl on the
street at night, dragging her into
a car and inadvertently killing her
Delayed two days by jury selec
tion, the state finally began its
prosecution on kidnaping and mur
der charges yesterday against 21-year-old
Utah and 24-year-cld Tur
man Wilson.
Opening statements by rival at
torneys gave widely varying pic
tures of the brothers, accused of
killing 18-year-old Jo Ann Dewey
on March 19.
The prosecution viewed them as
crime-hardened youths both have
criminal records who grabbed
the girl, apparently intending to
rape her. There was evidence of
a sex act, but the girl apparently
breathed exhaust fumes in the get
away car and died almost within
an hour of abduction, prosecutor
DeWitt Jones said.
He added the Wilson brothers'
actions immediately became sus
picious, iney went into hiding and
finally fled to California, where
they were arrested Tour days after
the girl's body was found near
Here Jones said.
Not so. countered defense attor
ney Irvin Goodman. He pictured
the Wilsons as youths who went
astray before the age of 16. but
who were trying to go straight only
to una tney were hounded by pol
ice at every turn.
In fact, this fear of Dolice led
them to go into hiding even before
the Dewey girl was abducted. Good
man said. Utah, who was on pro
bation for burglary, heard Dolice
suspected him of a power saw theft.
rearing nis probation would be
revoked, he went into hiding a day
before the girl was snatched, Good
man said. Turman accompanied
him, r they stayed in the Van
couvt utland area for several
days r the fatal assault on the
girl, he said.
They finally drifted to Silverton,
Ore., then went to Sacramento,
where they wore arrested March
30, Goodman continued.
He said they were in Portland
the night the girl was kidnaped
here. Goodman said Mr. and Mrs.
Goodman of Silverton would testify
they saw the brothers in Silverton
as late as dinner-time March 19.
The Goodmans own the property
where Mose Wilson, father of the
two accused, lives in a trailer.
The brothers then drove to Port
land, ate and saw a double-bill
movie. When they got out, they
had car trouble with their Buick
sedan and did not get to Vancou
ver until 1:30 or 2 a.m. March 20,
he said. ,
The state then produced two wit
nesses who said the kidnaping ap
parently was about 11:30 p.m.
March 19. They heard screams out
side their apartment house, and
rushed out in time to see a car
drive away. Both said it resembled
