Theft Suspect and 'Victim'
Will Wed; Charges Dropped
Tiftroit U.R) The bright sun
shine streamed through the win
dow and a warm breeze, scented
with spring, wafted through the
county prosecutor's office.
The old walls, drab and gray
when Sam Abraham and Rose
Calleja brought their fight to the
prosecutor suddenly turned to
pink and lavender.
The prosecutor didn't see the
change. The clerk across the
room didn't see it. But Sam and
Rose saw it.
They were to love.
It was an up-hill battle for the
couple who suddenly realized
that it was spring.
Mrs. Calleja, a 42-year-old

OPS Head Criticizes
Recommendations
Portland U.R) Action of the
state board of control in recom
mending a medical insurance
plan for state employees was
criticized Wednesday by Joseph
E. Harvey Jr., general manager
of the Oregon Physicians'
service.
He did not criticize the idea
of the plan, but selection of the
Lincoln National Life Insurance
company's policy as the favored
plan. He said his organization
had not been given a chance to
present any competitive plan to
the board before it made its se
lection. He also said that Blue
Cross was "shut out" of any op
portunity to make an offer of its
health insurance service.
widow, advertised for roomers
to occupy the five spare bed
rooms in her big house.
Abraham,- 54, rented one of
the rooms. A few days later he
asked his new landlady to loan
him some money to open a dry
cleaning establishment.
"I hardly knew the man, but
I loaned him $510," Mrs. Calleja
told police.
Honesty Suspected
Then, she said, she began to
suspect Abraham's honesty
Sure enough, she said, an in
vestigation of police records
showed a Sam Abraham had
been arrested previously for lar
ceny by conversion,
Mrs. Calleja had her roomer
hauled off to the prosecutor's of
fice yesterday, where it was re
vealed there were two Sam
Abrahams. This Sam wasn't the
one the' police wanted at all.
Color Begins To Change
That's when the walls began
to change color for Sam and
Rose. They slyly held hands
while they talked to Assistant
Prosecutor Nathan Kaufman.
Then they held a private con
versation in the corner before
turning back to Kaufman's desk
Mrs. Caleja reached for a pen
and across the face of the com
plaint she wrote: "I do not wish
to prosecute because the defend'
ant promises to marry me."
They left the office hand-in-
hand.
Road Crew Assists
At Accident Scene
Members of a road crew at
work on Highway 227 were the
first to report the details of
Monday's fatal accident to au
thorities, it was reported today.
Melvin Eugene Thompson, Cen
tral Point, was killed when his
lumber truck left the road.
First reports indicated that
the accident might have been
partly caused by road equipment
in the highway, but reports to
day showed that the equipment
was about a mile and a half
away. Members of the crew mov
ed to the accident scene to see
if they could be of assistance,
and called the state police and
county coroner.

Occupational Cancer
Target of Specialist
Chicago (U.PJ A specialist,
writing in the American Medical
Association Journal, called on in
dustry, labor and medicine to
work together in preventing oc
cupational cancer.
Dr. John G. Downing. Boston
dermatologist, said occupational
cancer is rare but it does exist.
"The record of the U. S.
Atomic Energy Commission
shows what can be accomplished
if the dangerous hazards of in
dustry are frankly reviewed and
accepted methods are installed
for proper prevention of illness
among the employes," Downing
said.
He said such cancer is liable
to develop among workers ex
posed to soot, pitch, tar and shale
oil. Arsenic, tar, mineral oil and
radio-active chemicals also can
produce cancer in various parts
of the body, he said.
