$2 a bushel for wheat used in
the domestic food market.
Freeman ureed quick approv
al of the program. A House
subcommittee is scheduled to
begin closed sessions Tuesday

at heading oft what Freeman
estimates would be a $600 mil
lion drop in farmers' income
under the present wheat pro

8 children,
mother die
in hi a
ze
PORT NORMS, N.J. (UPI) -Eight
small children and their
mother were killed Sunday
when an overloaded space heat
er set their shack in this fishing
community on fire.
Firemen said Mrs. Virginia
Johnson, 26, and her children
"never had a chance." The
father, David Johnson, 34, a
commercial fisherman, was at
tea when his family was wiped
out.
Six of the children, ranging
In age from 4 to 11 years were
found in a pile inside the front
door. Another child, 2, and one
10 months, were found in their
beds.
"It went up so fast we
couldn't get near it because of
the intense heat," said Fire
Chief Henry Taylor.
He said an overloaded wood
space heater in the living room
started the fire. The heater was
raised about six inches above
the floor but the heat ap
parently set the wooden floor of
the shack on fire.
"We found them all in the
front room. There were two
beds, one on either side of the
room and a large crib against
the door," Taylor said.
He said It looked as if Mrs.
'Johnson had tried to pull the
ierib away from the front door.
Firemen found the shack
completely ablaze when they
arrived, Taylor said. No one
could enter until the flames
were brought under control.
"These small places go up
awfully fast," he said. "They
just didn't make it before they
all suffocated."
The shack was located on
Port Norris Road in this Cum
berland County community.
New outburst
noted in India
CALCUTTA (UPI) -Roving
bands of riotous Hindus and
Moslems defied army and po
lice bullets today and stormed
through the streets of this city
in new outbreaks of arson and
looting.
More than 60 persons have
been killed since the religious
rioting started last Thursday.
Home Minister Gulzarilal
Nanda told army paratroop com
manders controllinB five city
districts to "show no mercy"
toward the rioters, aoicuers anu
police were posted at strategic
street Intersections in an effort
to stop the riots.
The government radio report
ed several shooting incidents
early today. An around-the-clock
curfew was ignored.
The rioting was triggered by
the theft of a sacred hair, said
to have come from the beard
of the Moslem prophet Moham
med. It was taken from a shrine
in Srinagar, but later recovered.
Jury returns
guilty verdict
SHELTON, Wash. (UPI) - A
Mason County Superior Court
jury late Saturday night re
turned a verdict of guilty in
first degree murder trial of
Robert Booth, 43, who was ac
cused of slaying his former
wife, Novella, with a .22 cali
ber rifle last September.
The jury did not recommend
the Ceath penalty.
Booth testified Saturday that
he accidentally shot his former
wife when he tripped while car
rying the rifle. Booth admitted
the shooting took place after an
evening ot annmng anu quai
reUng.
both traditional price support
loans and redeemable market
ing certificates.
He gave no further details
leaving these for the legisla
tors to work out. But other
Agriculture Department offi
cials, queried on how the plan
could be drafted to meet ad
ministration demands that it
maintain farm income and cut
surpluses without "excessive"
government cost, furnished this
tentative blueprint:
Farmers who wanted to get
price support would have to
plant within their Individual
shares of the 1964 national
acreage allotment of 49.5 mil
lion acres, down 10 per cent
irom last year.
Producers who complied
would become eligible for gov
ernment price support loans at
$1.25 per bushel. Some backers
of the new program want to
set the rate at $1.30 but many
administration officials favor
the $1.25 rate.
In addition growers under the
proposed new plan would get
"domestic marketing c e r t i f i
cates" worth about 75 cents a
bushel on about 45 per cent of
their normal production from
the farm allotment. This would
give the complying farmer
about $2 a bushel on his indi
vidual share of the domestic
wheat market.
For practically all of the rest
of his normal production, the
farmer taking part in the pro
gram would get "export mar
keting certificates" worth 25 or
30 cents apiece. This would
raise his return on wheat cov
ered by the export certificates
to $1.50-$1.55 per bushel.
Some proponents of the new
program favor use of one mar
keting certificate instead of the
two domestic and export certifi
cates. Most Agriculture Depart
ment officials lean toward the
dual system, however.
Farmers who get the certifi
cates could sell them for cash
for eventual purchase by proc
essors and exporters who would
be required by law to acquire
certificates covering all wheat
they handle.
Critics of the certificate plan
already have attacked it as a
"bread tax." The attack is
based on the ground that a sub
stantial part of the cost of
wheat would be In the certifi
cate price, which would be
passed on to consumers, rather
than in the price of the grain
itself.
Wage increase

SALEM (UPI) Recommend

Sandblom faces
fraud charges
CORPUS CHRISTI, Tex.
(UPI)-Paul Amos Sandblom,
who a court-appointed receiver
said owes at least $27 million
to "solid people from California
to the East Coast," sat in jail
today and waited for his law
yers to post $25,000 bond.
Sandblom, who made millions
by selling Investments, turned
himself in to a U.S. marshal
Sunday and was arraigned on
charges of using the mails to
sell securities not properly filed
with the Securities and Ex
change Commission.
Bond was set by U.S. Com
missioner James C. Martin.
Sandblom had been missing
for almost a week.
The investments magnate left
Corpus Christ! last Monday.
His lawyers filed a voluntary
bankruptcy petition on Tuesday
and on Friday the federal gov
ernment brought charges
against him.
On the morning the bankrupt
cy petition was filed, the last
payment on Sandblom's $55,000
home was made.
Robert Burke, a court-ap
pointed receiver, said band
blom owed at least $27 million
and added, "and that figure
could easily be doubled." He
said Sandblom's crea 1 1 o r s
might number 4,000.
One of the creditors is a
company In California owned
bv Bine Crosby, but the
biggest loser was a Dallas in
vestment house which was re
ported to have lost $1.5 million.
Sandblom's lawyers said
their clients' cause might not
be hopeless.
Oscar Spite, one of Sand
blom's attorneys, said the
securities tycoon could save
much of his fading fortune by
suing some of his creditors for
charging too much interest. He
said sandblom migni even gei
enough money to make his bus
inesses solvent if he pushed his
claims. The highest legal inter
est rate in Texas is 10 per cent.

Rusk says U.S.
no withdrawal
WASHINGTON (UPI)-Secre-
tary of State Dean Rusk says
the United States will not with
draw from the Panama Canal
Zone or give up its military
base along the vital waterway.
Asked Sunday if the United
States could afford to give up
tne zone or its miutary base,
Rusk said: "The answer is no,
and I have not heard any re
sponsible person take any other
viewpoint."
In a television interview Rusk
said all parties involved in ne
gotiations started after the
bloody noting in Panama are
agreed that "the first order of
business is the restoration of
peace."
Panamanian President Ro
berto F. Chiari has demanded
renegotiation of the 1903 treaty
that give the United States per
petual control of the Canal
Zone and Panamanian Ambas

the United Nations that the

Rare show
of Arab unify
is displayed
CAIRO (UPI)-Leaders of 13
Arab states gathered today in
a rare show of unity to plan
ways of preventing Israel from
diverting the waters of the Riv
er Jordan.
United Arab Republic Presi
dent Gamal Abdel Nasser called
the three-day meeting of the
Arab League amid talk of a
"march on Palestine," but ob
servers said there was little
chance the Arab nations would
decide to attack Israel.
Israel plans to divert the Jor
dan waters before they reach
the territory of its Arab neigh
bor, Jordan, by pumping water
from the Sea of Galilee, from
which the Jordan flows. It will
be used to irrigate the Negev,
Israel's undeveloped desert, by
means of a 100-mile pipeline.
The sea is on Israel's border
with Syria, a short distance
from Jordanian territory.
The Arab states fear the proj
ect could mean increases for
Israel's population and resourc
es and a consequent rise in
military power.
Jordan s King Hussein told his
countrymen in a broadcast Sun
day that he hopes the other
Arab nations will agree here
"upon one flag for a unified
army which will march toward
Palestine."
Hussein, who arrived here
Sunday, said Jordan Is ready
"to spearhead any Arab deci
sion toward restoring Palestine,
which must be discussed as a
whole and not only about the
Jordan waters."
The Arab state of Jordan and
the Jewish state of Israel now
share the former territory of
Palestine. Although Israel's
shooting war with the Arab
states ended in 1948. it is still
technically at war with Jordan,
But observers here said that
instead of war, the summit was
likely to produce plans for Arab
development of the Jordan, an
intensified boycott campaign
against Israel, and increased
publicity for Arab rights In Pal
estine. BEND

Chivalry dies as this gal
gets info working clothes
By Gay Pauley
, UPI Stiff Writer
' NEW YORK (UPI) - Men
off in elevators for Donna Mae
Mims when she's in street
clothes.
But when this striking blonde
gets into her work clothes, chiv
alry dies as she competes at
speeds lio to 115 miles per hour
against men on the race course.
Miss Mims, the first woman
to win a Sports Car Club of
America (SCCA) national cham
pionship, thinks this is as it
should be.
"Chivalry is dead. . . should
be on the race track anyway,"
said the 119-pound driver. "Or,
I shouldn't be out there."
Miss Mims, a 30-year-old sec
retary from Pittsburgh, Pa.,
said when she started racing in
I960 "some of the men had a
thing about a girl on the course.
But I think 1 m accepted now as
a driver."
The champ said she'd never
been behind a wheel until she
was 21. She became interested
in driving when she started go
ing to the races with the husband
from whom she now is di
vorced. To become a driving member
of SCCA, she had to have at
least five hours of instruction
and participate in at least six
lesser races before she was elig
ible for a national.
