JIEDFORD IVATL TRIBUNE, JfEDFOim OREGON. FRIDAY, HPRTTJ 5. 1935. tAGE THREE 'i JAGKSTONE TAKEN AFTERJFiFTH TRY FourrYear-Old Boy's Life Saved by Physicians After All Hope Seemed Lost Victim Quits Game DENVER. Colo., April 8. (UP) Johnny McCold, Just turned 4. waa playing "Jacka" In his home a.t Lead. S. D., one day about & month ago. His little Drother, Howard, only two wanted to play and Johnny let him have one of the pronged Jackstones. Howard promptly awallowed it and thus began a case unique In the annals of surgical science, one which today reached a happy ending In the chlldren'a hospital here. As soon as she learned what How ard had done, his mother, Mrs. Wes ley McCold. took the boy to the Lead hospital, and an operation for remov al ot the Jackstone was performed. It didn't succeed. The prongs of the etone were too firmly set In the vails of Howard's esophagus. Lead surgeons waited a day or two and tried again. Again they failed. When a third attempt waa futile, Mrs. McCold brought the boy here, o weakened that his death waa be lieved Imminent. A Denver specialist performed ft fourth, operation, only to find that the stone was In such a position that It could not be removed at that time. Moreover, an Infection had developed. For more than two weeka then, physicians sought only to combat the infection and to build up the child's strength. They were successful. And last Friday, a fifth and final operation at last resulted in removal of the Jackstone. Tonight Howard and his mother were prepared to return home, all Ganger past. And Howard had promised the nureea at the ' hospital . that he wouldn't eveu play Jacks again. "It's a. girl's game anyhow," they told him and he nodded his blonde head In agreement: . PIERCE NO! INCLINED 10 QUIT (Continued Irom Page One) THREAT AGAINST F.R. TO E BOSTON. Mass., April 8. AP United' States secret service agents today arrested Thomas F. Murphy, 39, of Cambridge, on a charge of threat ening to assassinate President Roose velt. ' The threat, agents- said, was contained in a letter written to the president. Murphy was taken to secret service headquarters here by John J. Mc Orath. the agent wh arrested him at his home, and was questioned there by McGrath and Harry Parker, head of the force of agents here. The agents said Murphy admitted writing the threatening letter. ' The Letter was mailed March 37 to the president at Washington. Agents said it was three pages long and concluded with the following sen tence: ........ j "I will assassinate you if I don't! get an answer." In his communication, the writer ! complained because he was not able to get a Job and of not getting satis factory treatment at employment of fices of private Industry. He also complained of other matters. The letter was unsigned but bore a return address. It was turned over to the secret service and McGrath was assigned. Today he went to Mur phy's home and plawd the man un-. der arrest. He was questioned there and then brought to the headquarters in the federal building here. The agents said he would be ar raigned later on the charge. 4- Twins Fingerprinted. SALT LAKE CITY. Utah (UP) Mrs. C. W. Smith had her twin daughters fingerprinted. Now all she does Is look at their thumbs to iden tify them. ture. today said he was going to prof fer the management of the state fair to Max Gehlhar, who had made a "marked success" with this annual exhibition at' Salem the past four years. Indications Gfilhar may be named were reported by the Associat ed Press yesterday. White stated he had not conferred with the former agricultural direc tor yet, but would do so some tlmo duing the day and hoped the proffer would be accepted. He added further that no other appointments in his department would be made before next Monday. Word from Washington that Mrs. Pierce refused w accept a "hint" from Governor Martin to resign from the state board of higher education was expected to spur the executive to immediate action in removing the former stat librarian from that post. His cause for removal would be her lnattendance at board sessions since she became secretary to her husband. Congressman Pierce. Must Show Cauw Tinder the law the governor Is re quired to state cause for removal of any member of the higher education board if his or her term has not ex pired, then set a hearing before dis missal, it was predicted here the gov ernor would do this and that by the first of May Mrs. Pierce's position will be vacated. Her terra however does not expire until March 3, 1940. The executive office was non-committal on a successor to Mrs. Pierce but reports were that Robert W. Ruhl, editor of the Medford Mail Tribune, was being favorably considered. Ruhl supported Governor Martin in his campaign for governor. Highway Change Wait The new chairman of the state highway commission, Henry F. Cabell. announced to the department he was satisfied with the present organiza tion of the staffs, and that no chang. e would be made for some time. If any were to be made later, he said. they would be made purely upon mer it. It was believed unlikely he would change either R. H. Baldock, engin eer, and his assistant C. B. McCol lough, Herbert Olalsyer, secretary to the commission for mony years, was likewise considered certain to remain In that position. Earlier reports that J, M. Devers, attorney for the com mission, would be replaced by Sena tor John Goss of Marshfleld, have not been renewed since the change on the commission was announced. Few Other Changes Ftw other state changes, with the exception of members of various boards as terms expire, were expected to be made by Governor Martin. A new appointee- fca the industrial ac cident commission and a chanre in the position of state parole officer, have been reported consistently. , While the strain of the SO-day leg islative session was weathe.-ed in ex cellent shape by the governor, he ha had little relief ainoa that time. Job seekera have filled his offlo very day and the executive has been kept busy from 9 a. m. until 6 p. m. Interviews oocupy most of the ex ecutive's attention, and unless visit ors waited for hours In the reception room, an audience with the governor wag virtually impossible. Newspaper men hare found it harder to gam ac cess to Governor Martin now than during the busy daya of the legisla ture. The pre lire of requests for posi tions and Jobs became so tiring today that Governor Martin "took the after noon off" and was not at his office for the first time in many day. 139 Claim 91655 Estate.
