Plenty read the page, countered

This and other discussions on

would make connections with the
Shasta Daylight. Under his pro
posal the car would make a run
one day and return the following
day. He said the SP had planned
on two trips daily in their prelim
inary study and found that the ex
panse was prohibitive. The origin
al estimated cost of daily service
was $250,000, said Porter, and S P.
Officials could only forsee $30,
ooo revenue.
Would Reduce Expense
Under his plan, Porter believes
the cost would only he in the
neighborhood of $125,000, with a
revenue of about half that.
The SP is now conducting a "dis
patch study," said Porter, to deter
mine how much interference pas
senger trains would cajse in regard
to freight schedules, and he ex
pects to hear from the railroad of
ficials shortly on their decision re
garding his proposal.
Porter said that although the dis
cussion was amicable, he made the
point that it was Ihe legal duty of
the railroad to provide passenger
service, and if this was not done
it would be possible to bring court
action to enforce this stipulation.

Compulsory Retirement
At 65 Hit By Speaker
At Oregon Bar Session
MEDFORD I Compulsory
retirement at 65 was criticized
here Friday by David E. Snod
grass, dean of the Hastings Col
lege of law at the University of
California.
He told a luncheon meeting at
the Oregon State Bar convention
that industry should re-examine
its arbitrary retirement rules. He
6aid some men do not reach their
peak until after 60, while others
lose their effectiveness at 55 to
60.
Dean Snodgrass said hit law fac
ulty has 11 professors who were
forced to retire from other schools
because of age. Their average age
is 72.
At a business session of the as
sociation, a proposal for setting a
minimum fee of $125 for establish
ing a guardianship was referred
back to committee.
Some members said they con
sidered the fee excessive and
would bring a bad reaction from
the public.
At the opening session Thurs
day, the meeting attended by
some 450 attorneys approved a
proposed state constitutional
amendment which would author
ize appointment of temporary
judges on the Supreme Court and
lower courts to help clear crowd
ed court dockets.
Delegates considered a report
by the committee on district at
torneys. They approved one section of it,
recommending that the bar con
sider drafting legislation that
would abolish justice of peace
courts in all counties with 20,000
persons or more.
Also approved was a proposal
for a study by the bar of a plan
under which counties with 10,000
persons or more would be com
bined into one or more districts,
with each district to have a dis
trict attorney. Each county would
elect a county attorney to handle
the county's business.
Rejected was a section of the
committee's report urging legisla
tion to allow the governor a
choice of sending the attorney
general or a special prosecutor
into a county that asked the gov
ernor's aid.
The meeting will continue
through Saturday.

Hollowed Out Nickel
Given Newsboy Led
To Soviet Spy Arrest
NEW YORK A hollowed
out nickel crammed with micro
film and collected by a young
ster on his paper route aided in
leading the government to Rudolf
Abel, accused Soviet master spy.
James Bozart, 18, said Friday
night at his Brooklyn home a
woman gave him the nickel and
other change four years ago as
payment for delivery of the now
defunct Brooklyn Eagle.
Bozart said he later accidentally
dropped the hollowed-out coin and
it fell apart, disclosing a piece of
microfilm about one-half inch
square. He said he took the film,
which contained numbers, to po
lice. They notified the FBI.
Bozart, enrolled as a freshman
at Rensselaer Polytechnic Insti
tute, Troy, N.Y., said he never
learned whether the woman was
connected with the spy ring or
herself received the nickel in
change.
Abel, 55, reputedly a colonel in
Soviet intelligence, operated a
photography studio in Brooklyn.
He was seized June 21 by immi
gration agents in his Manhattan

Bums' Move To LA
Appears Imminent
NEW YORK 1 Whatever
chance Brooklyn had of keeping its
beloved Dodgers appeared lo van
ish in a maze of high finance fig
ures today.
With the rejection by Dodger
President Walter O'Maliey of a
new offer by multimillionaire Nel
son Rockefeller, the path to Los
Angeles once strewn wilh pitfalls
was all but cleared.
Rockefeller, himself, refused to
give up hope of holding the Dodg
ers in Brooklyn.
- "An unusual combination of cir
cumstances still could keep the
team in Brooklyn," he said.
But while an impasse developed
here, Los Angeles officials glee
fully went ahead with plans to wel
come the Brooks. Conferences
were being held with Dodger offi
cials there and contracts were be
ing drawn up to be presented to
O'Maliey.
A Los Angeles city attorney
sounded a note of caution, how
ever, pointing out that everything
still was in the oral stage.
"It should be understood that the
transaction, at this point, is not 1
final commitment to the Dodgers
or to the city,' 'he said.
Meanwhile, city officials here
especially Mayor Robert Wagner
found their hands tied. After
O'Maliey rejected Rockefeller's
latest offer yesterday, Wagner did
not even call a meeting of the
City Council to draw up a new
plan. He merely said he'd report
lo the individual members.
