Senate Okays
Access Fund
WASHINGTON (UPI)-The Sen
ate Tuesday voted to raise from
$2 million to $6 million the
amount of funds for condemnation
of private access roads. The vote
was 49-40.
. The additional funds were pro
posed by Sen. ,Warrea G. Jlagnu-
son, D-Wash.
Sen. John Williams, R-Del., crit
irized the addition, accusing the
Kennedy Administration of prom
ising tax cuts for election year
purposes while sponsoring spend--
ing increases in congress.
Magnuson charged that his pro
posal was opposed by people who
had large holdings. He said it
would help in ' getting access to
intermingled sections of national
forests.
Sen. Wayne Morse, D-Ore., said
during discussion of the measure
that the lumber industry was as
depressed as any in the country
and added, "There is no excuse
for the Forest Service not having
raised the percentage of allow
able cut . . .," he said.
The interior fund bills contain
t'17.5 million for forest roads and
trails. The House had deleted a
$2 million budget request for pur
chase of condemnation of existing
access roads or rights - of - way
needed for access to national for
ests. The Senate Interior Com
mittee reinstated the $2 million
item and Magnuson's amendment
tripled it.

MORE SNAKES
Rattler Comes
To Roseburg
Rattlesnakes are fairly common
in Douglas County, but it is ex
tremely rare that they visit popu
lated areas.
One did earlier this week, how
ever, and in fact came right upon
the porch of a home at 1546 SE
Cobb St.
This is the residence of Mr. and
Mrs. Robert Nave. Their grand
daughter, Kathy Nave, age 3, was
on the front porch and came run
ning into the house very excited.
Nave went out on the porch to
see the small rattlesnake, which
was about 2 feet long with one
button, lying full length along the
side of the house on the porch. It
was in a fighting position. In front
of it was a garter snake, not more
than a foot in length. Both snakes
had their heads reared up as antag
onists. When Nave poked at the rattler
with a stick, it started backing
away, and as it did, out from be
tween its jaws came another gar
ter snake. It, too, was about a foot
long, and had been swallowed its
entire length. It, however, was still
alive and in an angry mood, Nave
said.
He wasted no time in disposing
of the rattler, which he has kept
temporarily for evidence.

Legion Player's
Condition Static;
Fund Is Started
Jim Wassom's condition remains
unchanged and doctors are still
giving the injured Roseburg Amer
ican Legion baseball player a "SO
SO" chance to recover today, re
ports his mother, Mrs. Carl Was
som. The insurance on the Legion ball

penses. To meet the remainder of
the costs, the Legion has started a

An earlier report from Herbert

of the policy covering the ball
players.

FRANKLIN. Tex. (UPD-Billie
Sol Estes went before a Texas
grand jury today to tell them
what he knows about the mysteri
ous death of an Agriculture De
partment official.
Estes went before the grand
jury after his lawyer, John Cofer,
agreed to withhold pressing a pe
tition for a vit of habeas corpus.
The writ would have nullified
Estes' subpoena and kept him
from testifying.
Estes walked into the jury room
flanked by Cofer and Texas
Hanger Capt. Clint Peoples.
The grand jury wants to find
out what connection, if any, Estes
has with the death of Agriculture
Department official Henry H.
Marshall. Marshall was believed
to be investigating Estes' cotton
allotment operations when he was
found shot to death June 3, 1961.
Marshall had been shot five
Pilot Unscathed
In Azalea Crash
Delmar C. Gladden, master ser
geant with the U. S. Air Force, Mc-
Chord Air Base, Wash., walked
away uninjured after his plane
struck a power line wire, during a
forced landing, and crashed.
The crash occurred about 10
a.m. Tuesday near Azalea, east
of Interstate Freeway No. 5 in an
open field near Mile Post 230.
Investigating state police said the
pilot stated he was en route south
from McChord Field and heading
for Mcdford to fuel his plane. His
carburator iced up causing him to
make a forced landing. He picked
an open field.
When he brought the plane down
it struck some power lines connect
ed to a private water pump. The
lines were not activated at the
time.
The right wing of the plane, an
Aronca sedan, was torn part way
off and the windshield broken out.
The plane was towed to the east
end of the field. The State Aero
nautics board at Salem was noti
fied.
Woman Judge Claims .
Sixth Term In Office '
Ida May Adams, municipal court
judge in Los Angeles, has been re
elected for her sixth six-year term.
Judge Adams is well known In
the Douglas County area. She has
a summer home on Cavitt Creek, a
tributary of Little River, where
she spends her vacations. i
When sworn into ofuce In 1931,
she was the first judge of a Cali
fornia "ourt to wear the traditional
black robe. Young, small and
blonde she was of the opinion she
could not command the respect
and discipline needed for an effect
ive court without the robe. Later
this judicial garb became manda
tory upon all judges.
California law makes judicial po
sitions non-partisan. It also is pro
vided that if several candidates
seek an office and one, in the pri
mary election, receives more votes
than the aggregate for others, that
candidate is deemed to be elected
and no run-off election is required.
At the recent primary election
in California, Judge Adams receiv
ed more votes than five opponents
combined.

autopsy on his exhumed body
showed he had suffered a sharp
blow on the head and had a near
fatal dose of carbon monoxide in

A justice of the peace ruled at
the time that Marshall died that
the death was suicide, but no au

Dr. Joseph Jachimczyk, a noted

probably a murder but said he
would not -rule out the possibility
of suicide.

collaborating with Billie Sol Estes
In trying to corner the West
Texas fertilizer market today la-
oeiied as lalse and defamatory
a lawyer's statement that he of
fered to put Estes in business in
turope or Brazil.
Maynard C. Wheeler, president
of Commercial Solvents Corp.,
told a House subcommittee the
relationship between his company
and Estes was that of "customer
and supplier and no more."
The subcommittee is trying to
find out if Estes and his associ
ates attempted to pressure or buy
influence from the Department of
Agriculture in connection with the
Texan's grain storage operations.
Frank Cain, a lawyer for one
of Estes' major creditors, told a
Texas Court of Inquiry that
Wheeier and Estes discussed the
possibility of Estes working for
Commercial Solvents in Europe.
Cain alleged that Estes suggested
Brazil instead.
Cain also said there was dis

"I deny emphatically that I
ever made the statements at
tributed to me by Cain, ' and I
also deny that there were made
in my presence the statements at
tributed by Cain to himself and
Estes, Wheeler testified.
After adjourning for they day,
subcommittee Chairman L.1I.
Fountain, D-N.C, told reporters
he would call Cain to hear bis

Probation Granted
In Burglary Case
Ned Ncitch, 52, of Eugene, Tues
day drew from Circuit Court judge
Don H, Sanders a sentence of 18
months in the Oregon State Cor
rectional Institution.
Execution of sentence, however,
was suspended and he was placed
on probation for five years. Neitch,
on May 7 pleaded guilty to bur
glary not in a dwelling, in connec
tion with the theft of a pump and
other equipment from a farm home
near Kellogg late last year. He had

gation. Alberta Bryant, 21, returned here
from Eugene to face a charge of
ootainmg money by false pretenses,
waived preliminary hearing and
was bound over to the Grand Jury
from the District Court of Gerald
R. Hayes Tuesday. The specific
charge involves a check for $21.62
dated May 31 passed at the Safe

er checks against her record, ac
cording to the Sheriff s Depart
ment. She is on probation for five
years from Lane County.
Judge Sanders Tuesday signed
an order revoking the probation of
Louis J. Prevost, 30, of Myrtle

He was sentenced to serve one
year in the Douglas County jail,
which sentence was Imposed ear
lier, but he has been on probation
following a plea of guilty Oct. 13,
1061, to non support. Reason for
revocation was that he has failed
to make support payments, has
failed to maintain employment and
has consumed Intoxicants.
A charge of obtaining money by
false pretenses against William D.
Johnson, also known as Jack John
son, 43, Seattle, was dismissed by
