GOP Central
Committee To
Remain Silent
The executive committee of the
Republican Central Committee vot
ed Thursday to keep its peace on
a decision by the Douglas County
Court to hold up its selection of a
county commissioner. But one of
the three candidates recommend
ed by the central committee was
not so silent.
It was announced earlier this
week that the court would not
select a commissioner replacement
for E. R. Metzger until after the
May 18 Republican primary elec
tion. (Metzger resigned with some
parting shots Nov. 22). The two
remaining members of the court
said they would select the Repub
lican who polled the highest num
ber of votes for the office.
in a statement Thursday, Gen.
Curtis T. Beecher (Ret.), chairman
of the Republican Central Commit
tee, reported he had polled a ma
jority of the members of ihe execu
tive committee in connection with
any statement concerning the coun
ty commissioner situation. He said
the "consensus of opinion" reach
ed is that "Further statements can
serve no useful purpose and might
be detrimental to the general wel
fare of the county."

Graham's Sanity
Trial Date Set
For March 5
DENVER ffi A jury trail is set
to start March 5 to determine if
John Gilbert Graham was sane
last Nov. 1 when he is accused of
dynamiting an airliner that hurled
his mother and 43 others to death.
Trial on the sanity issue was
requested by court-appointed de
fense attorneys who rejected the
findings of four psychiatrists that
the 23-year-old defendant was
sane. In effect, the doctors found
Graham knew right from wrong
and could refrain from doing
wrong.
The defense had its choice ot
having a separate trial on the sani-
ly issue or conciuuing u in a inai
to determine Graham's guilt or
innocence to charges of murdering
hit mother Mrs. Daisie E. King. 55.
The sanity trial expected to
last about 10 days will locus on
animations of Graham. Details of
lne bombing of the United Air
Lines plane will probably come
into this trial only incidentally,
If Graham Is found sane, he will
then be tried on his plea of inno
cent to the murder charge. If the
jury finds him insane he would be
committed to Colorado State Hos-
P',al never to be tried on the
murder charge.

Ground Party -Said
Bringing
Out Four Bodies
By JORGE JURAOO
QUITO, Ecuador rf The arrival
of a ground search party at a
campsite in rugged Auca Indian
country was awaited today to iden
tify four bodies believed those of
missing American missionaries.
There was no report on a fifth
missing . evangelist.
A U.S. Air Korea helicopter
crew which remained at the scene
reported by radio telephone the
finding of the bodies last night. Its
messages did not identify any of
them.
A search for the Protestant mis
sionaries began last weekend after
they disappeared in an area on
the eastern slopos of the Ecua
doran Andes. They had flown in to
Christianize the Auca tribesmen.
The helicopter, after finding the
bodies, combed a seven-mile area
around the camp but saw no sign
of life.
Members of the missionary party
were Peter Fleming, Seattle,
Wash.; Nathanial Saint, Hunt
ingdon Valley, Pa.; James El
liot. PorMand, Ore.; Edward Mc
Culley, Milwaukee.; and Roger
Youderian, Lansing, Mich.
Entries in Fleming's diary, found
at the base camp, indicated the
missionaries were lured to the
Curaray River by signs of friend
ship from some of the tribesmen.
They apparently were soiled Sun
day just after radioing: "Here
come a group of Aucas we nave
not known before."
Abraham Vanderpuy, president
of the Inter-Mission Fellowship of
Ecuador, said the missionaries had
worked since., last September to
make friends "with the Aycas. The
diary gave thil description of thoir
first meeting, on Jan. S, with Uie
trinesmen:
"Today is a great day for

U. S. To Resume
Atomic Weapons
Tests In Pacific
By ELTON C. FAY
WASHINGTON CTr Th United
States is going ahead this spring
with more atomic weapons tests in
the Pacific. Apparently heeding
outcries from abroad, however, it
will tone down the nuclear masts.
In what amounted to an official
rejection at this lime of demands
that all the big powers quit testing
nuclear weapons, the Atomic Ener
gy Commission and Defense De
partment announced last night:
1. Preparations are under way
for a series of nuclear tests to
begin this spring at the Eniwetok
proving grounds in the Marshall
Islands of the mid-Pacific.
2. Because there are no "effec
tive international agreements" in
effect to limit or control arma
ments, the United States must
continually endeavor "to maint.nn
the most modern, efficient military
strength for the purposes of
peace "
3. The tests will involve use of
weapons for which the power will
be "substantially below that of the
I maximum 1954 test." This refer-
ence, in a supplementary stale-
I men l by AhC Chairman Lewis L.
Straus, was to the supernowcrful
i blast of March 1. 1954.
j That explosion, unofficially esti
mated to have been equal lo energy
released by the detonation of about
17 million tons of conventional
TNT, brought trouble. Kadioactive
material falling out from the bomb
cloud drifted outside the proclaim
ed safely zone. It descended on a

ese said the crewmen developed

WASHINGTON 1 Secretary
of State Dulles today firmly backed
up his claim that hii "brink of
war" policy effectively blocked
Red China in the Koretn. Indo
Chinese and Formosa crises.
Tha claim, which has evoked
mounting criticism, was set forth
in a Life magazine article thai
contained direct quotations from
Dulles on the nature and success
of what he called a policy of
"deterrence."
The interview has roused Demo
cratic criticism in Congress and
stirred up angry attacks in the
British nress.
British press.
A number of British newspapers
expressed alarm and Sen. Hum
phrey (D-Minn.) demanded in the
Senate Thursday that Dulles
disavow the ideas expressed.
Democratic ax-Secretary of State
Dean Acheson, in a speech here
Thursday, denounced the idea of
' hucksterism, in foreign policy,
defining it as glamorization of a
product to conceal its failings. He
did not mention the magazine ar-

Friday, Lincoln White, Stata Da-

"Tha secretary has now read the

One of the 11 men named by tha
FBI Thursday as participants in
the biggest cash haul in the na

Got A Spare Surrey?
Anyone have a spare surrey?
The four - wheeled, two - sealed
pleasure carriage plays a mute,
but leading role, in the musical

tion will be presented at Douglas
High School late in February, but
Director Irene McLaughlin said
the surrey could be used right
now.
It has to be a small surrey lo
enable students to bring it on stage,
but no one seems to know if Mir
reys differ in size. It will be used
for such numbers as "The Surrey
with The Fringe On Top." Mrs
McLaughlin says the fringe will
be easy to find.
Any person knowing the where
abouts of a surrey arc requested
to contact the director at the high
school. That number is OS 9-87.19.
