Once Maud discovered $400 she'd stolen from a West Texas minister was his congregation s cash. She rushed to the police sta tion to return the money. ' But not a dime of it goes bacx to a preacher like you, coming to Dallas to cavort with women like me!" She boiled. She gave the roll to detectives and warned them the red-faced clergyman was not to be trusted with church funds. where he roes to school. This idea Pete didn't like at all. And the tall, blond boy had made it quite dear. ' If you don't send me passage money to come home, I'll stow away," he warned in a letter. But his mother and stepfather, Nora and Kendall Smith, apparently had underestimated this erim determi- shoplifter , nation. Pete didn't get the money.

Robert R. Herring, vice presi dent of Pacific Northwest Pipelines Corp., Houston, Tex., said Ms firm's timetable calls for comple tion of a 1,466-mile pipeline and completion of other facilities for serving the Northwest by that time. The company recently was au thorized by the Federal Power Commission to proceed with the project, which will cost an esti mated 1G0 million dollars. It was chosen over other applicants which have indicated they will appeal. Herring, here to discuss natural gas contracts with the Portland Gas and Coke Co., said he did not believe appeals would much delay the project. He said his company expects to have financing com pleted by the end of September and then will be ready to start work. He said the firm will charge the same rates to Oregon, Washington ana iciano aistrioutors.

Velde told The Seattle Times by telephone from Washington, D.C. the committee is anxious lo get full transcripts of the hearings before Congress adjourns "be cause there are a number of wit nesses we are going to have to recommend for contempt cita tions." "There are several in Seattle and several in Portland." This session of Congress Is ex pected to ajourn before Aug. 1. Recommendations for contempt ci tations must be referred to the House by committees. Velde added in the telephone In terview that after a study of the transcript he hopes to recommend clemency for Mrs. Barbara Hartle, convicted Communist conspirator who was the chief witness at the Seattle and Portland hearings. 1 Mrs. Hartle is serving a five-year nrisnn term. . r Slow Columbia River- Rise Seen PORTLAND UB Reports or high levels at the headwaters of .. ni i.:- i tr.j : d:.... tne uiumuia aua iwuieudi mvma in British Columbia and the threat of serious flooding appear to be a local situation, and "nothing sen sational is expected m tins area.

Fisher pointed out that the Koo. tenai at Bonners Ferry, Idaho, now is about seven feet below its high stage of May. .There will be a slow rise of the Columbia in this vicinity in the next 48 to 60 hours, Fisher said.
