In the supply.

KIDNAPERS TO
PLEAD GUILTY
TO ALL COUNTS
(Continued from pagt 1)
kidnaping and extortion charges.
They were escorted by the usual
coterie of federal department of
Justice agents, Waley, shackled, rid
ing In one car, his wile In another
machine.
Tacoma, Wash., June 21 (IP)
Margaret Waley, blonde Utah Kill
whose five-and-dlme store shopping
tour solved the Weyerhaeuser kid
naping case, will plead "not guilty"
to charges she conspired with two
men in the abduction of nine-year-old
George Weyerhaeuser of Ta
coma, it was indicated today.
Her plea may be entered at 2 p.
m. today when she and her hus
band, Harmon , Metz Waley, face
Federal Judge E. E. Cushman In a
continuation of their hearing In the
United States courtroom here.
A strenuous legal battle to save
the 19-year-old wife from a maxi
mum punishment of life imprison
ment and possibly from any prison
term at all was indicated In the
preliminary moves of her ex-convict
husband and the attorney they re
tained at a hearing here late yes
terday. First determined not to employ
counsel, "Because we haven't any
friends," Waley, a small. town bad
boy who failed in his first big-time
crime, consented to let Steve O'Bri
en, Tacoma, represent them after
the language of the Indictments, as
read by Judge Cushman, puzzled the
defendants.
As Waley listened to the Indict
ments charging that he, his wife
and William Mahan, a fugitive, vio
lated the Lindbergh kidnaping law,
conspired to use the malls to de
fraud and to use the malls to extort
and to the single Indictment charg
ing Mrs. Waley with mailing a ran
some contact note to John Philip
Weyerhaeuser, lumberman, the ac
cused man Interrupted the pro
ceedings. "The Indictment says all three of
us conspired to kidnap the boy," he
said. "Does that mean before or
after he was kidnaped?"
The question, a crucial one in the
Waley's fight against punishment,
was not answered. Instead Judge'
Cushman advised them to accept
O'Brien's services as agent for John
F. Dore, famed Seattle attorney
whom Mrs. Waley's parents recom
mended. The defendant accepted and the
three O'Brien and the prisoners
went into conference. The arraign
ment then was postponed until this
afternoon.
O'Brien, In indicting Mrs. Waley
would plead "not guilty" despite full
confessions, said that all available
Information showed that she had
no knowledge of her husband's kid
naping plans until Informed that
the boy was In their house at Spo
kane several days after the crime.
Federal indictments charged other
wise in naming her on all the
charges made against the men and
In adding the additional charge that
she sent one of the notes which led
Weyerhaeuser to pay $200,000 for
his son's release.
Salt Lake City. Utah, June 21 (IP)
"The family will back Margaret
Waley every inch of the way In
her battle against charges of kid
naping George Weyerhaeuser," her
father, George Thulln, told the
United Press today.
"If Margaret were guilty but I
know she isn't, mind you I would
want her to suffer full punish
ment for her crime," Thulln said.
"But Margaret is not to blame.
She is a child of circumstances.
"We are not concerned with
what happens to Harmorf-we think
he tricked her Into this but we
are going to do all in our power to
help the girl.
"When I learned Margaret was
to be arraigned yesterday, I in
structed William Reger, our attor
ney here, to do what he thought
best. I understand he delegated
full authority to John F. Dore, a
Seattle lawyer, who now is acting
for her.
"We haven't any money, and I
don't know where we are going to
get any. Our friends are poor
most of them on relief and we
can expect no help from them,
but we'll raise the money some
how." he said.

Survey of Mineral
Resources Asked
Washington, June 21 (IP) The ex
tent of mineral resources In the
west would be studied under a work
relief project proposed by Senator
O'Mahoney (D.-Wyo.).
O'Mahoney said he believed such
a survey, looking toward ultimate
development of the resources, would
prove of great value to the west In
particular, and to the county in
general.
WHEAT VALUES
CLOSE HIGHER
Chicago, June 21 (LP) Realizing
came In grain markets today after
early bullishness and carried grains
back around previous closes.
Wheat closed to c a bushel
higher, corn M to lower, oats un
changed to J4 higher and rye c
higher.
Wheat opened firm on strength In
Liverpool and strengthened as much
as a cent a bushel. Weather contin
ued to be the dominant factor with
the harvesting 10 days late and
hedging pressure absent. Later sell
ing pared these gains.
Corn advanced early in sympathy
with wheat but trade was light and
the yellow cereal weakened easily
under pressure by locals.
Oats and rye reacted with the
major cereals. Barley, an exception,
soared 5 cents a bushel, the limit,
on September delivery. July barley
was bid up 2!a cents a bushel to 50
cents.
Chicago, June 21 yp Grain pric
es averaged lower early today after
a show of firmness at the outset.

the same sector already had re
sumed work.
Negotiations for the re-opening of
other mills end camps were declar
ed by union leaders to be In prog-
s, and while no official confir
mation has been forthcoming re
ports persist that several Portland
operators will place men at work
next week.
Managers of the nine Portland
plants which advertised for work
ers early this week said today about
1500 applications had been received.
Sixty per cent, they said, were from
former employes.
In the meantime, however, no
word from the labor temple had
been Issued which would lead to the
belief that the 2000 men who cheer
ed their leaders' plea to "stand pat"
Wednesday night had altered their
views.
Spokesmen both for employers
and union employes, nevertheless,
were quoted today as saying "the
strike picture looks better."
The announcement of Monday's
scheduled re-opening came from
the management of the Crossett-
Western company at Wauna near
Astoria in Clatsop county Officials
of the plant declared the 4-L wage
plan had been accepted, with the
minimum scale at 50 cents an hour.
The strikers' original demands In
cluded a 75 cent minimum.
The Crossett-Western company
also announced It planned to resume
logging operations within a few
days. About 400 men are employ
ed In the sawmill and camps.
Opening of the Crossett-Western
mill would bring the total lumber
employes In Clatsop county to about
1000, or one-half of the normal em
ployment. Two mills at Warren
ton and the veneer plant at Astoria
already are operating as well as the
10 recently opening private logging
camps.

PROSPECTS FOR
BUMPER CROP
OREGON NUTS
There never was a better prospect
for a bumper walnut crop than this
year with Indications of the greatest
crop in the history of the state, ac
cording to S. H. Van Trump after an
inspection of orchards in many sec
tions of the lowlands.
"I haven't been In the hills yet so
can make no prediction as to the
conditions there, but In the lowlands
I've never seen anything to equal
the situation. It Is even a better set
than last year when we had a bum
per crop and that Is one of the sur
prise features. Apparently there Is a
crop all over the state with nothing
like the usual shedding of the small
nuts.
"There may be blight yet but there
Is not a sign of it In sight now.
There's danger from that even from
heavy dews or showers but it doesn't
flourish with cool nights like we're
having now and if walnut growers
get an even break In the weather
there should be phenomenal produc
tion. "With filberts 'It Is a somewhat
different story. Apparently they are
showing up better than they did
earlier but there Is nothing like the
prospect for filberts that there Is
for walnuts.
"Growers are beginning to see the
fllbrets now, and they look much
better than a week or so agd, but
still not so good as they might be.
"I was at the Smith Brothers or
chards northwest of Aumsville a
short time ago where there are 20
acres of filberts and they report
that there Is not as good a crop as
there was last year. However, they
have an enormous crop of prunes
which is expected to make up some
for their shortage of filberts."

NEAR1NG END
OF ETTEBBERG
CANNING PUCK
The Etterberg pack for this yen
Is nearlng the end with probability
of the last picking starting next
Monday and the crop being shaved
off suddenly. In the best patches
there will be no more than three
picking this year while In some
there has been but one.
County Inspector Van Trump who
was through patches In North How
ell and near Mt. Angel yesterday
where some of the best patches are,
reported that In the main the
growers will hardly get a ton to
the acre this year. However, the
quality has been excellent, es
pecially on the first picking.
E. G. wlesner who has one of
the most productive patches this ,
year reporting better than a ton i.
to the acre, also reported on ef
fecta of the spray for the spittle
bug which apparently didn't show
the best results. A part of his
patch he didn't spray for the spit
tle bug and production on this por
tion was considerably In excess of
that on the balance of the patch
which was sprayed and he attri
buted this to damage done to the
patch by the spray. In fact, he 1b
of the opinion that the spray did
more damage to the production
than the spittle bug itself.
Van Trump states that logans
still look good although there are
indications that they were hurt by
one cause or another and while
quality will probably be good the
quantity will be cut down some.
