Stephen Speaks Here
To Laundry Operators
The importance of reducing
unit cost of services suppjjed to
the public was emphasized by
Hugh Stephen, Victoria, B.C.i at
the mormng session ol the 32nd
Annual Convention of the Ore
gon State Laundry Owner's As
sociation being held at the Sena
tor Hotel Friday and Saturday.
Stephen said that by an infin
ite capacity for taking pains to
effect the reduction of costs, tne
one-tenth of one percent saved
here and the one-tenth save there
would soon add up to. over one
percent saved. He stated that one
percent more profit was an im
portant item considering the
margin of profit upon which a
laundryman works.
Ed Christie. Puyallup. - Wash.,
was the other morning speaker
and he told the gathered laundry
owners how important it was to
rely more upon doing things in
one's city for the other citizens.
He said that this would pay divi
dends faster than would straight
advertising of his business.
As an example, he explained
how, during his city's daffodil
festival, he decorated his laun
dry office with more flowers than
were used for decoration by the
entire remainder of the city. He
said he also gave ponies to var-

NAM Officials
Greeted Here
A forecast of industrial and
economical development on the
Pacific Coast in the next 20 years
was made at a conference at the
Marion Hotel today between rep
resentatives of the National As
sociation of Manufacturers and
Salem industrialists,' business
men and Chamber of Commerce
executives.
James Douthat of Washington,
D. C, assistant vice-president of
the NAM, was here to talk about
national legislation, lie was ac
companied by Jack Shields and
Tal Jones of the Portland office
of the NAM. In a resume of
preparedness plans of the na
tional association Shields pre
dicted that by 1975 the coast
states population would have in
creased to 60 million people,
which would be reflected in
schools, jobs, necessary city serv
ices to the people.
Douthat, speaking about legis
lation in Washington, mention
ed reform among other things
desired by the NMA.
Mention was made of a film
picture recently made of the
Eyerly Aircraft operation in Sa
lem, which later is to be shown
on television throughout the na
tion.
Russian Agent
(Continued from Page 1)
Khokhlov himself told .the sena
tors he was in a unit specially
assigned to such activities as sabo
tage of defense lpants, murder,
the throwing of bombs and the
setting of fires in harbors.
"This witness has given a great
deal of testimony in executive ses
sion which, for security reasons,
he will not be asked to repeat
in the open session," Jenner said.
One thing the senators wanted
to learn from. Khokhlov was any
thing he might know about Amer
ican operations and plans of the
MVD's international network.
Testifying through an interpret
er, Khokhlov said he had been
"a collaborator, a worker" in the
MVD for 13 years and an officer
since 'September 1950. He de
scribed it as a service "engaged
in intelligence and counter-intelligence,"
and in the sending of
agents abroad to counter the activ
ities of "enemy agents."
The murderer entered the house,
armed with an ax, and crept into
Cofran's room, then occupied by
Lt. Rosewater. He struck the sleep
ing Rosewater with the axe before
discovering his error. Then he
went to an adjoining bedroom and
attacked Capt. Wessler, believing
he was Cofran.' When he learned
of his second mistake, he went
upstairs to the attic where Cofran
slept on a spare bed. cofran was
then bludgeoned with the ax.
Then the slayer set fire to the
House and fled.' -
Canfield recalled what he said
were the following facts in the in
vestigation which prompted nim
push the charges:
Leech had been friendly with
German girl secretary who was
discharged by Cofran. Cofran also
cancelled an . order which would
have provided business funds to
her father "and financially ruined
the old man'.'.
An ax identified as one usually
kept in the basement of. Leech's
home was found by German divers
in the river at Passau shortly after
the killings..., ... .
