Mrs. Tucker was afflicted with
polycystic kidneys, a disease in
which cystic growths encrust the
kidneys and halt their function.
One of her kidneys was useless

efficient and gradually losing its
function.
Describing the operation, , Dr.
Lawler! said:'
"Such work has been done suc

we should wait for death or take

Barkley Doubts if Senate Has

public officials that might lead to an impeachment in connection with democrat siding with the republi-1 oalother f amUieslave gone to
the 1943 Amerasia case. ,
Barkley reminded the senate that under the constitution, it is
the duty of the house to initiate any impeachment proceeding.
The senate is not a grana jury.
n6ne of its committees are grand
Juries," Barkley told the chamber.
"If there is revealed on the
part of a public official any mis
conduct which would Justify pro
ceedings of impeachment, such
Eroceedings must originate in the
ouse of representatives. They
cannot originate in the senate."
As Presiding Officer
) The vice president spoke out in
his role as the senate's presiding
officer, in assigning a committee
to study a resolution by 21 repub
lican' senators demanding a sepa
rate investigation of the justice de
partment's handling of the Amer
asia case, v
Some republican critics have
complained there has been a
"cover up" and a "whitewash" of
the five-year-old case, which re
sulted in no prison-term con
victions. tfJ
One republican Senator Know
land of California, had mentioned
possible impeachment action in a
senate speech two weeks' ago.
Barkley sent the GOP resolu
tion. Introduced by Senator Cape
hart (R-Ind), to the senate Judic
iary committee and left it up to
that group to decide whether a
new inquiry is warranted.
Expresses Opposition - 4
Chairman McCarran (D-Nev)
has already indicated he does not
favor a new investigation.
McCarran wrote Senator Fer
guson (R-Mich) on May 17 that
he could see "no point in multi
plying congressional Investigations
of a single subject matter."
A senate foreign relations sub
committee headed by Senator
Tydings (D-Md) has been con
ducting closed-door hearings for
weeks on the Amerasia episode.
The case centered on the illegal
removal of hundreds of secret
government documents which fed
eral agents found in the New York
offices of Amerasia magazine.
Only two of six defendants in
the case were punished. Amer
asia's editor, Philip Jaffe, paid
$2,500.
Chairman Tydings told the sen
ate today that his inquiry com
mittee "has not been asleep" on
the Amerasia case. Asked by
Capehart why the hearings are
coucted in secret, Tydings re
plied: ,
"If it could be proved that
Jaffe passed on information to a
foreign agency, we could take his
life.
"We are trying! to find all the
culprits We can't put them on
notice from day to day by pub
lishing vital information."
Tydings' reference to Jaffe's
"life" was based on the fact that
the wartime penalty for espionage
is death. Technically, the United
States still is at war. 1
Three young Salem area resi
dents were- injured about 9:15 p,

Jo Ann Attacked, Doctor States;
Wilsons Score Point on Wound
VANCOUVER. Wash- June 19 -UP)- There Is no doubt that 18-
year-old Jo Ann Dewey underwent a sex attack the night she was
kidnapped, then slain, a state witness testified today.
. Dr. Howard Richardson, Oregon State criminologist, told a jury
in the trial of brothers Utah and Turman Wilson on charges of kid-
naDDing and murder that medical examination of the girl's body
proved tne point.
Colorado boasts the , highest
transcontinental railroad route in
North America at Marshall Pass,
10.848 feet altitude, where the Rio
Grande railroad crosses the Con
tinental Divide.

sperm was found, and added these
was evidence also of sodomy.
The eixl was grabbed off a darx
street here March 19, and carried
off in an automobile. Her nude
body was found a week later.
The defense attorney for 20
y ear-old Utah and 24-year-old
Turman scored one damaging
point against the state's case,
though.
Until now, state evidence has
Indicated the girl was carried
away in a Buick sedan. The Wil
son brothers were known to have
been driving such a car that
night.
Richardson testified that the

would have bled constantly.
Asks If Car Stained
In cross-examination defense at

point He asserted the blood would
have stained the get-away car, and
then asked Richardson what ex
amination of the Wilson brothers

Richardson admitted that a
painstaking examination showed
no blood stains, nor any other m
criminating evidence.
The state had a counter-point.
though, introducing evidence on
still another car. This machine,
like the Buick, was registered to
Grant Wilson, a brother of the
two on trial, and available for use
by Utah and Turman.
Hairs in Trunk
Richardson testified three hairs
found in th trunk of the
car, another on tne Dumper, au
were of the same texture and color
as Jo Ann's. The granular con
struction was similar, too, he said.
Grant earlier had testified th
car had not been in use for some
time in March. He sold it on March
24. five days after the girl was
kidnapped. ,
Richardson also testified that the
girl died within two hours of her
abduction at about 11:15- pan. He
said carbon monoxide poison kill
ed her. Earlier prosecutor DeWitt
Jones said the girl possibly breath'
ed exhaust fumes from a car, while
being carried away in a trunk or
rear seat of the vehicle.
In Tnrman's Handwriting
Max X Alford, an Oregon state
police handwriting expert, also
testified on a letter mailed at Sac
ramento, where the brothers, were
arrested March 30.' He said it was
in Turman's handwriting.
