He said in a statement: "Many have urged that I make future radio and television ad dresses. Some have sent contribu tions to pay for such appearances, and I understand several local groups have already been organ ized to purchase radio and tele vision time. "I am gratified by these expres sions of continued interest in what 1 have to say, but I cannot make precise plans for the future at this time. Further, the Stevenson cam paign headquarters in Springfield and the Democratic National Com mittee both have substantial defi cits which I feel should be paid off before funds are raised for any future activities b me.

Chicken Houses, Utility Room Go Up In Flames Fire of undetermined origin Mon day night destroyed two large chicken houses, a connecting feed and utility room and about 2000 chickens on the C. Malarkey rancn, two miles up (juines Creek from the main highway north of Glen dale. Only the efforts of neighbors and the crew of the Douglas Forest Protective Association pumper saved another large chicken house on one side and a barn on the other. The chicken houses, which were 20 by 120 feet and 22 by 120 feet, respectively, as well as the 16 by 20 feet utility building, were a total loss. Malarkey indicated that either defective wiring or a stove in a combination feed and egg sorting room, which connected the two chicken houses, may have caused the blaze. The chimney was a good one, and Malarkey stated that when he checked the dampers on the stove at 5 p.m. everything was in order. The buildings were dry and en veloped by flames so quickly that only one of the units could be en tered. Even it was so far gone that it was impossible to remove any of the 1000 8-week old birds it contained. The other building hous ed about 1000 laying hens. Only 15 or 20 feet from the blaz ing buildings another larger two story laying house, 35 by 122-feet, smouldered and caught fire. Neigh. bors manning portable pumps, own ed by Clyde Marriott of the Cap itol Saw Shoo and George Johnson, which were set up in Quine's Creek a short distance away, and the Douglas Forest Protective Associ ation pumper saved the building. So hot were the flames however, that holes were burned in the alum inum roofing. The chickens housed in the threatened building were re leased, but it is reported that some of them crept back under the burn ing building and were destroyed. Neighbors released stock from the barn on the other side of the fire, but the structure was not ig nited. IWarkey said the following morning, that lie had not even at tempted to estimate his loss but believed it large. 11 Ex-Czech Leaders Hear Death Sentence (Continued From Page One) Bonus Deadline Again Told Vets them had helped to implicate the group and the three were "merely lints" in the aliened oro-Western conspiracy of treason, sabotage . ana espionage.

Harrassment Of Berlin Zone Plan Of Russians WASHINGTON un American officials say Russia may launch a campaign of harrassment against Berlin in an attempt to discourage Western Germany from joining the European Defense Army. They told a reporter Thursday such a program of threats and restrictions would coincide with Western intelligence reports that the Soviet has nearly doubled the size of the East German "police force." The officials said this buildup began last June after Chancellor Knian Adenauer signed the Euro pean Army agreement and the peace contract. The East Germans have 24 "alert units" now supplied wifli small arms.
