Funeral Held
For2ndVictim
Of Shooting
PASCO OB Fatally wounded
in an April 1 shooting spree that
also took the life of a policeman,
P. H. Petersen was laid to rest
Wednesday at services attended
by close friends and the family.
Conspicious by his absence was
his 16-year-old son, Richard, who
police say fired the shots that
killed Petersen, 52, and Patrol
man Alva Jackson.
Richard, charged with first de
gree murder for the death of
Jackson, was held in the Frank
lin County jail. Sheriff Harvey
Hutson said the boy was not al
lowed to attend the funeral Wed
nesday but had been permitted
a few minutes alone with his
father's body at a funeral home
Tuesday.
He was tight-lipped but dry
eyed after that session, Hutson
said. ,
Petersen was shot in the ab
domen during the April 1 fracas
that followed a family argument
pver Richard's beer-drinking. He
died April 17.
Jackson was fatally wounded as
he struggled to disarm Richard
after he had fired at Petersen
and his grandfather, Chet Young.
Young also was wounded but re
leased from a hospital last week.

PORTLAND WV-The Portland
City Council intends to ask Gov.
Patterson to veto the recently
passed legislative bill to outlaw
this city's business and profes
sional license fees, based on in
come. The council instructed the city
attorney Wednesday to draw up
a resolution against what it called
a "plain violation of the principle
of home rule." The resolution
also is to urge the governor's
veto.
Council members said the bill
would cost the city $1,400,000 an
nually in fees and might cut off
another million dollars in utility
franchise fees.
A spokesman for the city attor
ney said there also might be
much litigation over the fran

came law.

The theater-type temple was
built by the Masonic fraternity.
It has been used for such occi
dental activities as circuses and
conventions.
Friday it will house the annual
meeting of Montgomery Ward &
Co. stockholders. Their chief
business will be to decide
whether the 721 million dollar
firm will remain under the con
trol of Scwell L. Avery or shift
to the command of Louis .
Wolfson.
The battle of these titans of in
dustry will be witnessed by hun
dreds. There are seats for 4,500
on the main floor and in the bal
cony. There will be accomoda
tions for an additional 2.000 in
the basement. The sharehouldcrs
can listen or speak via a pub
lic address system, equipped with
mobile microphones. t .
AVERY ON STAGE
Chairman Avery and other
Ward officers and top executives

the stage.
Other members of the manage

places as directors will be seated
on the left side of the main floor.
Wolfson and the other members
of his squad, including their
nominees for the directorate, will
be seated on the right side of the
main floor.
Polls will be opened In the rear
of the house. Most of the 68,000
stockholders have mailed in their
proxies. But those who want to
vote in person or cast a ballot
that will supersede a previously
mailed proxy will walk to a par
lor containing eight voting tables.
Hie next item on the program
is "questions and discussions."
But the place on the agenda of
this item already has drawn a
protest from Wolfson.
He has demanded "free and
open discussion before the votes
are cast."
DECISION IN 3 WEEKS
John Barr, Ward vice president
and secretary, rejoined:
"There will be a full opportu
nity for asking any questions. No
stockholder will be forced to vote
before he's ready to vote."
At the end of the session, the
meeting will be adjourned prob
ably for three weeks. Barr esti
mated it would take that long to
check and count the ballots.
Representatives of both sides
will watch the proceedings.

WASHINGTON 1rV-Robcrt M.
Hutchins Thursday revived the
once - controversial proposal to
create a non-press, non-government
agency to check on the per
formance by newspapers of their
public responsibilities.
I Hutchins, chairman of the Fund
jfor the Republic, Inc., did so in
an address at the opening session
of the 3-day annual meeting of
the American Society of News
paper Editors.
The editors six years ago re
jected the proposal made orig
inally in 1949 by the Commission
on Freedom of the Press headed
by Hutchins.
Hutchins renewed the sugges
tion Thursday with criticisms
only slightly less barbed than
those of the commission he head
ed in 1949. He told the approxi
mately 400 editors that "most of
you have watched the erosion of
freedom without a twinge," and
accepted incidents in connection
with it "as . . . routine."
With "monopoly newspapers"
holding the field in 94 per cent
of the cities, he said, the press
has a greater duty than ever be
fore to abandon the "entertain
ment" of readers and devote it
self to what he called its pur
pose "the enlightenment of the
people about their current affairs."
