Previously Miss Soule had main tained a stony stare. But her eyes brimmed with tears as Mrs. El vins told of a visit she made to the two girls in May when they had begun rooming together in an apartment at nearby Burlingame. Body Found July 24 The body of Catherine Elvins. 19. was found in the apartment July 24.

Spencer said field mice in crease about every four years, but exceptionally good weather in Oregon and other regions of the North American continent as far north as the Arctic circle led to an unusual increase last year Spencer supported the proposal to poison the mice if farm crops are endangered or if the natural reduction does not take place within three months. Cautions Against Poison Spencer cautioned, however, against promiscuous use of poisoned grain, lest it harm wild life. He said wild life would not be damaged if the grain is spread properly. Several other officials spoke, and arrived at an estimate of 160,000 acres which, have been in fested by mice in the five-county area of Crook, Deschutes, Jeffer son, Lake and Klamath counties. On the subject of county funds available, a Crook County repre sentative said his county was not prepared to finance a poion pro gram. He thought a special levy would be necessary. Deschutes, Jefferson and Lake representatives said emergency funds were available and a Klam ath County representative said ""! his county court was n $10,000 available for control. Speakers said no health prob lem for humans yet had de veloped, but the potential is there. Frank W. Prince, of the U. S. Public Health Service. San Fran cisco, said of 200 dead mice he examined from the Klamath County 80 per cent of them had tularemia, a disease sometimes known as rabbit fever.

STIfHINS OP! 7 DATS A WIIK i - . .r UNTIL r.MS-' Congress Reacts Favorably To President's Talk, But Some Opposition Reported WASHINGTON r On balance, Congress reacted favorably Thursday to President Eisenhow er's state of the union message. A number of top Democrats notably House Speaker Rayburn of Texas, Senate leader Johnson of Texas and House leader Mc Cormack o f Massachusetts crossed party lines to say in ef fect "fine speech." Republicans, almost to a man, saw the address as reassuring, to the nation but a large number of Democrats, ui spite of the ex ample of their leaders, said "old stuff" or wanted something more specific before they would ap plaud. Johnson praised the message for its "idealism" in regard to se curity and peace. Says Message Strang Rayburn said the message was strong "the strongest I think the President has presented to Con gress. . . I'm glad to know the President is alive to what the American people are disturbed about. . ." On the other side of the Dem ocratic fence were such remarks as these: Sen. Johnston (D-SC) "Presi dent Eisenhower sounded just like Rip Van Winkle. He just woke up." Sen. Morse (D-Ore) "It was a sermon of apology delivered at the wake of a dead administra tion." Sen. Neuberger (D-Ore) said the people would willingly accept "the increased burdens necessary to assure the ultimate triumph of freedom in the world but not if these are to be used by the ad ministration as a screen behind which to carry out its long standing desires for gutting, delaying and abandoning federal responsibilities in the fields of natural resources and the nation's economic and so cial welfare." Another Thing To Do Sen. Jackson (D-Wash) in a pre pared statement said Eisenhow er "did an excellent job of stating the nation's peril and sketching the broad steps needed." but, Jackson added: "It is one thing to say the proper things and quite another to do the proper things." Sen. Magnuson (D-Wash) said "There is general agreement with what the President said about in creasing our military strength' then added caustically: "But that is a New Year's res- All School Districts Rezoned In Douglas The District Boundary Board, which establishes school district boundaries in Douglas County, has rezoned the county in accordance with the new rural school law.

"It was a call for all parties to put first the best interests of America." Martin said in a state ment. "The President clearly slated that as of the present, the United States and the free world have no reason to fear the im perialistic aggressiveness of .the Soviets." Rep. Halleck of Indiana, anoth er House Republican strategist, said "1 have never heard a finer I example of confident leadership in difficult times." Sen. Martin (R-Iowa) said "The President outlined a program by which Congress can help guide the nation through troubled times do- i mestically as well as internation i ally." Martin added: I "His program will help main i tain a stable economy and at the same time care for the essential I welfare needs of the people." . I Sen. Purtell tR-Conn) said: !

Dave Beck Awaits Word On Whether New Trial Slated SEATTLE, i Dave Beck Sr.. was expected to learn late Fri day or some time Saturday wheth er he will be granted a new trial on his grand larceny convic tion. His chances appeared sliin. Superior Judge George H. Ile velle, who on Thursday rejected the plea of Beck's son, Dave Jr., for retrial, indicated he was "in clined" to turn down the Team sters L'nion president, too. The Becks both were convicted of grand larceny late last year in separate jury trials. Thev were accused of pocketing S6.550 from the sale of three union-owned Cadillacs.

Jury Foreman Accused The foreman, Charles Hickling, was accused in the affidavits of having said before the elder Beck's trial began that he'd like to "throw the book" at Beck. Hickling has denied making any such statement. The affidavits were from Robert S. Paulson of nearby Edmonds and Clarence H. Lauby of Seattle, both of whom were fellow em ployes of Hickling last November at the Boeing Airplane Co. plant in Everett. Charles S. Burdell, defense counsel for both Beck and his son, has said bet h convictions will be appealed to the State Supreme Court if new trials are denied. Venezuela Cabinet Resigns En Masse ! CARACAS. Venezuela tifi The entire Cabinet resigned at mid- night Thursday night to give Pres ident Marcos Yejcz Jimenez a ; free hand to deal with the political 1 crisis that followed the New I Year Day military uprising. There were rumors a military junta had been formed. Creation of a junta probably would mean military officers would supersede Perez Jimenez as the executive power. Another rumor said he would continue in power with an all-military cabi net. At 9:30 a m. the only official news available was a bare men tion that the Cabinet had re signed. The news was carried in front page announcements in two morning newspapers. The radio stations made no mention of the developments President Perez Jimener til said to be conferring with mili tary officers as late as 4:30 a m. But no one in authority would dis cuss the subject of the confer ence. ORECON CROWN 0RTH0 MILLER DORMANT SPRAYS .1.19 E J- r t 4 o o o s O O u) e G 9 e O o o
