Two Women Spend
Crime Anniversary
In Confinement
CHICAGO I Two women
sentenced to 180 years in prison
for murder spent Saturday in
solitary confinement in observa
tion of the 22nd anniversary of
their 'crime. '
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.

Refusal To Get
Haircut Charged
Against Gl
TOKYO 11 A young Colorado
airman said today his refusal to
get a "white sidewall" has result,
ed in court-martial charges against
him.
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

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

I he broadcast said (, corgi Mal-

from the Kremlin leadership this
week had opposed the "Soviet
policy for peace" and tried to
hamper Its implementation, but
their plans were frustrated.

New purges sweeping thousands
of Soviet Communist . Party offi

ed to follow the ouster of
the Molotov-Malenkov-Kaganovich
group from the Kremlin s
prcire command.
The new purges may be con

his supporters will lose no time
in removing Irom the lesser eche

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

his political enemies will be

I he other boy, police said,

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

top leaders, all listed as opponents

all with personal followings, will
be permitted to have full freedom
An appraisal of the Moscow
events of the past week points to
two big winners.
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."

From Kefauver

say what would be done about it.
"We have a letter" was the

the Snake River which would
flood the three Idaho Power sites.

Denny Peterson, Ed Urness
Stop Black Sox At The Dalles

hitting of The Dalles in the first

much of an obstacle in dropping a
pair of semi-pro baseball games to

Help Dedicate
Library, Museum
INDEPENDENCE, Mo. W
Men who helped Harry S. Truman
guide the destinies of the nation
when he was President gathered
here Saturday to help him dedi
cate a library and museum hous
ing official papers and memen
toes of his administration.
Here is what they had to say:
Dean Acheson, former secretary
of state "Our alliances have be
come weakened and our position
of respect in the world has de
clined. We seem to be unclear as
to where we are going and what
we're going to do when we get
there."
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."

Porter Seeking
Support Of Ban
On Dictatorships
WASHINGTON ( Rep. 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?"
