' Evelyn Smith, now 68, and Blatfche Dunkel, 66, were re moved to the solitary cells at sundown Friday in accordance with the 1935 order of Judge Cor nelius J. Harrington. The two women were convicted In 1935 of the murder of Ervin J. Lang, 38, Mrs. Dunkcl's son-in-law. Judge Harrington when senten cing them called the crime "one unfeelingly executed" and ordered that the women spend each an niversary of the slaying in solitary confinement. The order was carried out every year until 1954 when Illinois Atty. Gen. Latham Castle ruled it need not be followed. The following year, however, the attorney gen eral's office reversed itself and the once-a-ycar confinements con tinued. During the trial testimony in dicated Lang was killed after he planned to break off an illicit romance with Mrs. Dunkel. The jury was told Mrs. Smith, promised $500 for her part, plied Lang with liq'ior, drugged him, strangled him, and then with her husband's help, dismembered the body. Mrs. Smith's husband has never been found.

In this incident "white side wall" refers to a haircut, one that strips the sideburns bare from the ears to the crown of the head. Airman 3.C. Don Wheeler of Corlcz, Colo., said charges of dis obeying orders were filed against him after his squad leader told him to get his hair cut in that fashion. He declined. "I am not refusing an order," Wheeler said, "simply challenging an order to get a 'white sidewall' haircut because I had had an Air Force regulation haircut only the day before." Murray Sprung, a JNew Y o r K lawyer practicing in Tokyo, said he had agreed to dciena wneeier in the summary court-martial. Wheeler, 20, is a member of thi! honor guard platoon at Pershing Heights. An Air Force spokesman said that, as such, he should have a sharp haircut. "Members of the honor guard should look alike," he said. "Wheeler is not being tried for failure to get a haircut. He is charged with disobedience of a lawful order of his superior offi cer." The summary court-martial opened this week, but defense challenges struck one officer from the three-man board and a new start is to be made some time after July 15. Maximum penalties upon conviction would be a had conduct discharge, six months' hard labor, a reduction in rank and forfeiture of two-thirds pay for six months. Wheeler, in the Air Force three years, contended he was being harassed by the platoon sergeant. He said he had applied three times for a transfer. "The person I'm under in the honor guard has shown in a few ways that I get on his nerves," he said. "I don't mind the honor fiiard it's the harassment that 'goes with it." West Informed Peace Is Aim Of Soviet Union LONDlfN iffi The Soviet Union informed the West today the big shakeup in the Kremlin will not cause any changes in its "peace loving foreign policy." Moscow Radio replied in a right eous tone to an American chal lenge to the Russians to follow up the purge of Stalinist elements with measures "to promote peace and stability. The broadcast beamed to North America said Soviet policy all along has been "to live peacefully side by side with all countries and to do everything possible to im prove our relations and coopera tion with the U.S.A. since promo tion of world peace depends large ly on that." I he broadcast said (, corgi Mal- enkov, Lazar Kaganovich and V. M. Molotov who were purged from the Kremlin leadership this week had opposed the "Soviet policy for peace" and tried to hamper Its implementation, but their plans were frustrated. Youths Plunge 60 Feet Into Abandoned Mine PUEBLO, Colo. iiP Two teen age hoys spent seven hours at the bottom of an abandoned mine shaft Friday after their jeep plunged 60 feet into the opening.

I Russian Purges May Sweep Thousands From High Posts Throughout Soviet Empire EDITOR'S NOTE Harold K Milks covered from Moscow the first stages of the current Com munist purge, then flew to Prague on assignment. This dispatch is not subject to the censorship that controls all filing from Moscow. By HAROLD K. MILKS PRAGUE, Czechoslovakia (ffi New purges sweeping thousands of Soviet Communist . Party offi cials from their jobs are expect ed to follow the ouster of the Molotov-Malenkov-Kaganovich group from the Kremlin s prcire command. The new purges may be con ducted so quietly they get no recognition in Pravda. But in Prague it is accepted as a cer tainty that Nikita Khrushchev and his supporters will lose no time in removing Irom the lesser eche lons of the Communist party all those who, by action or word, have opposed the form of Lenin ism preached by Khrushchev. It is too early to outline the probable pattern the purges will take as they move from the top down through state, district and neighborhood organizations of the party. But no violence is expected. It is unlikely the firing squad sys tem Joseph Stalin used against his political enemies will be brought into play. Throughout the Soviet Union, probably many Communist leaders will find their office doors closed. They will oe invited to accept jobs as workers on collective farms or in factor ies. Political experts in Prague be lieve it is unlikely that the ousted Teen-Age Gang War Results In Death Of Youth HOBART, Ind. iff) A teen-age gang war ended early Saturday wnen a 17-year-old boy was dragged to his death under the car of a rival group. ilie death of Larry Blair, East Gary, Ind., brought the state's holiday traffic death toll to 10. Police in this Northwest Indiana city said Blair was dragged for a block under a car filled with young boys that sped out of a drive-in restaurant parking lot. The youth was dead on arrival at Methodist Hospital in Gary. rive of Blair s companions were held for questioning, and police were searching for the six boys in the death car. Authorities said the "war" be gan at a dance Friday night in nearby Portage, where one mem ber of Blair's gang fought with a youth in a rival faction. I he other boy, police said, picked up five friends and chased the Blair car to Hobart, "playing tag" by bumping the two vehicles together on the busy highway. Police said Blair's gang got out and tried to enter the other auto mobile when they reached the drive-in parking lot, but the other six youths locked the doors and rolled up the windows. Blair was standing in front of the vehicle when it suddenlv start ed up, knocking hiin down and dragging him away as it sped off. rouce said it is possible the occupants of the car did not know Blair was caught under the auto mobile.

The first is Khrushchev, who emerged from a weeklong com mittee meeting in command of a hand-picked Presidium whose members all can be classified as loyal followers. The second winner is President Tito of Yugoslavia. He had the satisfaction of seeing the Soviet Central Committee repudiate V. M. Molotov, blamed on both sides for continuing cleavage between Moscow and Belgrade. He also found the- committee endorsing some of his own policies. The Soviet Union now will in tensify its campaign to bring Tito and his party back into full part nership. Some students of Soviet affairs believe Khrushchev's scheme to decentralize Soviet industry brought on the final dispute in Moscow. Certainly the Central Commit tee's drastic action, with all tha risks it implied, is a firm indi cation of Khrushchev's strength. His orders are going to be fol lowed from now on. "There is nobody left to give opposition," said one political source here, "from now on the actions of the Central Committee of the Soviet Communist party will be as much rubber stamped under Khrushchev as they werj under Stalin." But this authority believes there is a new style of command under Khrushchev, a system of trying to accomplish things without vio lence. Foreign diplomats in Prague in clude experts on the Soviet satel lite system. They predict these countries will line up 100 per cent behind the Kremlin ousters. As for Tito and his followers, they are in a position to applauu Khrushchev's move and crow: "We told you so all the time."

Averell Harriman, governor of New York and World War II am bassador to Russia "I've wailed 16 years for Molotov to be dis missed. I first met Molot,' in September, 1941, while on a mis sion for President Roosevelt... I said then that as long as Molotov is in power, we'll have difficulty coining to an understanding with Russia. His removal is a good thing. ..(but) no one should be overly optimistic " Charles F. Brannan, former secretary of Agriculture, speaking of the Eisenhower administra tion's soil bank program "It is a political fraud and I don't think it has achieved its announced ends that of reduction of alleged surpluses., The basic fault of the program is that a farmer takes acres out of production his poor est land and the money he re ceives for this is used to buv fertilizer for the other land; therefore he produces bigger crops."

For ter (D-Ore) is seeking to drum up support for his proposal to ban use of Mutual Security money in any Latin American "dictator ship." In a letter to House colleagues, Porter said he plans to offer his proposal as an amendment to the Mutual Security Appropriation Bill scheduled to reach the House floor late next week. He described his proposal as designed to "favor Latin Ameri can democracies and to avoid identifying the United States with Latin American dictatorships." Porter said his proposal would not affect health programs that transcend national boundaries and would leave to the State Depart ment the nuestion nf what coun tries are dictator-ruled. The congressman said that in recent congressional appearances Assistant Secretary of State Roy Rubottom has classed the Domini can Republic as a dictatorship. Porter has asked for State De partment views on Venezuela, Cuba and Nicaragua "in particu lar" but has received no reply. Porter said he believes "what little military advantage we gain from concessions by the dictators is as nothing compared to the dis advantages we suffer by our neu tralistic policy which does not dis tinguish between the democracies and the dictators." He said he based this belief on correspondence received from Lat in America as well as recent vis its to Puerto Rico, Costa Rica, Colombia and Panama. "Since when couldn't the United States stand up for democracy against dictatorship?" Porter ask ed. "Who says we are so weak we have to appease dictators whose governments are based on greed and terror?" 10O Cowboys Take Part In Yoncalla's Rodeo (Continued from page one) lane, $242 50; Dick Perry, $145.50; Duane Sulps, $97.
