Part Of Money
Stolen From Bank
In Idaho Found
MOSCOW, Idaho. July 24 UP)
FBI and Latah county officers
recovered more than $2,000 Thurs
day night o the money believed
to have been stolen from the First
bank of Troy July 6.
W. G. Banister, special agent
for the FBI. said the money was
recovered after a conference with
Richard Howard McConnell, the
man charged with robbery of the
bank.
The bank was robbed of $5448,
Vice-President Frank Brocke re
ported at the time. Five days later
McConnell, 28, was arrested at
Clarkia and charged with the rob
bery. He is in jail at Coeur D'Alene
under a bond of $10,000 which has
not been posted.
Banister said $2287 was taken
from the trunk of a car after Mc
Connell and his attorney, L. E. Huff
of Moscow, had talked with John
A Carver of Boise, U. S. district
attorney for Idaho.
"McConnell told us the money
was hidden in a tin can in the
truck of a 1949 car which was at
Clarkia," Carver said.
The district attorney said they
found the car gone when they
reached Clarkia but overtook it at
a town several miles away and
found the money. They did not
say by wnom the car was driven.
McConnell's wife, the mother of
four children, was arrested a few
days later and is now free on bail.
She is charged with receiving, con'
cealing and disposing of money
taken in the bank robbery.

An individual winning such an
appeal would not necessarily get
his same job back, but could apply
for a similar position in another
agency.
The action came after a sharp
exchange between Senator Morse
(R-Ore) and Felix Larkin, general
counsel for the department of de
fense. Morse told the defense attorney
he was asking "arbitrary powers"
that "are un-American.'
He objected to Larkin's request
that the secretary of defense or
other agency heads be allowed
to make a final finding, without
outside appeal, as to workers who
are "bad security risks."
"We now have that power," sir,
Larkin .-napped.
"Well, you are not going to have

Phony Peace Petitions
Arrive In Portland
PORTLAND UP) The so-called
Stockholm Peace petitions were
reported appearing in Portland.
The petitions, wnich call (or out
lawing of A-bombs, have been de
nounced elsewhere as a Communist
move in power politics.
Dr. Frank Munk, Reed College
professor of political science, reit
erated the objections: that the pet
itions were a smoke screen for
aggression such as in Korea and
that any signers would go on Com
munist mailing lists, possibly for
future blackmail for being acco
ciated with a Communist move.
A newspaper reported the peti
tions were being circulated on the
streets here.sThe paper, the Ore
gonian, quoted Gus Hall,- secre
tary for the U. S. Communist par
ty, as urging all Communist cells
to distribute the petitions.
Northwest Timber Sales Post Ail-Time Record
PORTLAND UP) National
Forest timber sales for the year
ending June 30 hit an all-time
high in the Pacific northwest:
Walter H. Lunn, assistant re
gional forester, said 1,391,537.000
feet of timber valued at $14,036,
368 was cut on 19 national forests
in the area during the period.
The cut was only sligiitly higher
than the previous year but its
valu! was up $1,500,000, he said.
Topping the nation, as well as
the northwest, was the Willamet
te National forest, with a timber
cut of nearly $3,000,000.
Other northwest leaders were the
i Olympic, Gifford Pinchot, Ochoco,
L'mpqua and Mount Baker.
Counties in Oregon and Washing
I ton will get 25 percent of the total
receipts. Another 10 percent win
be used for road and trail deve
lopment in the national forests.

Sutherlin's Need Of Housing
Improvements Emphasized
In County Authority Survey
Survey of Sutherlin's low-income housing needs show at least 199
dwellings lack some of the basic facilities for good housing, or are
dilapidated to the point of needing major repairs before they are
safe for habitation, the Housing Authority of Douglas County announced
this week.
The check, confined to areas
where substandard housing ton
ditions or occupancy by low-i n
come veterans prevail, was made
to determine the number and size
of dwelling units needed in t h e
p o w-r e n t housing development
which is planned for the Sutherlin
vicinity, said H. L. Scofield, exec
utive director for the Authority.
"The survey was not set up on
city boundaries, but dealt with the
General Sutherlin housing area,"
Scoficltl explained. "No attempt
was made ,to cover the sections
where homes generally met good
housing standards, either, so this
is not to be taken as a complete
picture of the Sutherlin housing
situation. We did find, however,
that ample need exists for the 25
low-rent housing units which have
been reserved for the Sutherlin
area by the Public Housing admin
istration, and we should proceed
with plans for the project which
will meet the needs of the low-income
families in the commun
ity." A total of 521 dwellings were
covered in the survey, including
54 trailer houses and tourist court
units. Of the regular-type units,
199, or 57 percent were substan-

dard. One hundred and nine dwell
ings were in various stages of di
lapidation, while 189 lacked one
or more of the basic facilities for
standard housing. One hundred of
the units surveyed were in the
local public housing project and
were included to determine income
levels for veteran families in the
community.
The survey disclosed that 89 of
the dwellings checked had no run
ning water inside the structure,
and 47 more had cold water only.
Bathing facilities were completely
lacking in 153 houses, and 19 more
shared bathtub or shower with
other units. Eight shared inside
flush toilets; 159 homes had no
inside toilet facilities. Eighty-three
were without kitchen sinks; seven
lacked electric lights. Of the 54
trailer houses and tourist courts
surveyed, only 19 had all basic
facilities available, and the nine
which were in a dilapidated stale
lacked three or four of the six
facilities essential to adquate hous
ing. Seventy percent of the families
living in substandard housing in
Sutherlin have one or more minor
children, and 48 percent include at
least one veteran.
Half of the families renting sub
standard dwellings i n Sutherlin
pay more than $35.68 per month
for shelter alone; with utilities,
rent totals more than $39.72 for
half of the families. Eighty-two
percent of the families in rented,
substandard housing who have in
comes under $3000 per year are
paying more than a fifth of their
income for rent.
Sixty-one families among those
surveyed are living under definit
ely "crowded" conditions, while
another 54 families are crowded
to the point of affecting normal
family lfe, according to the survey
statistics.
Surveys were conducted simul
taneously in Roseburg and Reeds
port, where plans for low-rent de
velopments under the leadership
of the Housing Authority of Doug
las county also are being carried
forward. Roseburg's reservation is
for 60 units: 15 have been allocated
to Reedsport.
