Sacketi Seeks
Case Dismissal
VALE Wl Leaning on thp re
cent OreRon Supreme Court deci
sion which ordered Bonnie Lee
Kuhnhausen released from prison,
attorneys for County Clerk Harry
S. Sackett seek dismissal of charg
es against him.
Five charges in connection with
misuse of public money have been
filed against Sacketi. He was first
indicted last May. Then in August
additional information was pre
sented to a grand jury and three
indictments were returned.
He was tried in October on one
of the charges but the jury failed
to agree and retrial was set for
March
Robert Lees, one of Sackett's at
torneys, said Monday that Circuit
Judge E. H. Howell had been
asked to dismiss all of the charges
because Sackett was not given a
speedy trial. He said Sackett had
a right to be tried at the same
term of court in which he was '
indicted unless there was good rea- j
son lor delay. He said good reason
was lacking.
The Kuhnhausen decision by the
Supreme Court used that reason
ingshe was available for trial at
Oregon City in April but was not
tried until the July term, so the
court ordered her freed.
Simpler Procedure
For Pilots Offered
Announcement has been made
by the Civil Aeronautics Admin
istration of a simple faster pro
cedure for private pilots to ob
tain medical certificates.
Under the new plan the tem
porary third class medical certi
ficates issued to student and pri
vate pilots, will be good for two I
years, unless recalled by an au- j
thorized representative of the
CAA within 90 days. j
Previously, physicians other
than CAA-dcsignate medical ex
aminers could issue temporary !
certificates good for only 30 days. I
After reviewing their findings,
CAA issued the two-year certi
ficates. Designated medical examiners!
will continue to issue the two-!
year certificates without the 90-1
day stipulation. Non-designated I
physicians are to report their
findings to the CAA, where they
will be reviewed within the 90-
day period and the pilots notified ;
only if recall of the certificate j
is necessary.
Chicago Grain
CHICAGO Soybeans soared
nearly 10 cents a bushel to the
highest prices in three years in
active dealings on the board of
trade Tuesday.
Buying in soybeans in part re
flected strength in soybean oil and
meal. The meal was quoted at
$01 00 to $82.00 a ton in the cash
market, a new peak for 19M and
up about $10 00 from the start of
the year.
Wheat also was quite firm, al
though not matching the eains in
soybeans. All new crop wheat fu
tures set new seasonal highs on
buying altrihuted in part to re
ceipt of more dust storms in the
winter wheat belt over the week
