Spray Said Lethal
To Cattle Grub
Washington U.P.) Two fed-
feral entomologists have devised
an experimental insecticidal
spray they claim is "lethal" to
the cattle grub.
Although scores of new sprays
have been tested in recent years
for; the fight against the grub, A.
R.J Roth and Gaines W. Eddy say
thenew one is the first to prove
more effective than standard
rotenone sprays.
Roth and Eddy , stationed at
ihe Corvallis, Ore., laboratory of
the' Agriculture Department's
iicmi'iral research service,
prepared a report on the new
bpray today for the entomologi
cal society of America which is
meeting in Houstori: , , . .
The spray's name, for simpli
city, is 21-199. Technically, it is
3- chloro -4-methylumbellif erone
o'jo-diethylthiophosphate.
Shipowners Awaiting
Ruling on Overtime
San Francisco (U.R) Ship
owners waited anxiously today
to learn if Harry Lundeberg and
his AFL Sailors .union , of the
Pacific will withdraw their ban
on overtime work on ships in
West Coast ports. -:
The shipowners were hopeful
that the sailors would agree to
work overtime as a result of an
action by Harry Bridges' long
shoremen releasing the strike
bound freighter Pacificus in San
Pedro harbor.
J. Paul St. Sure, president of
the Pacific Maritime association,
said the longshoremen's action
should "clear the air."
Lundeberg was noncommittal
about the future moves of his
union. : -

Police Seize
Crazed Killer
Las Vegas, Nev. (U.R) A
crazed, toy shop owner, accused
of killing his former wife and an
other woman, was seized by state
police today after he had roam
ed the streets of this gambling
resort for several hours armed
with a revolver.
Federick W. Fowler, 54, was
captured in a trailer court about
three miles from the serene
where, a few hours earlier, po
lice said, he shot and killed his
ex-wife Dorothy, 39, mother of
three children, and her friend,
Mrs. David Cotner, 28.
Officers converged on the
trailer court after they were
tipped off by the attendant of a
service station nearby. They
pounced on the toy shop owner
as he cringed among the trailers.

sist arrest, surrendering to po
lice with an ironic affability
when handcuffs were clamped

itish Columbia 1
Vetoes Dam Plan
Victoria, B. C (U.R) Pre
mier W. A. C. Bennett said to
day the British Columbia gov
ernment was not interested in a
$250,000,000 Washington state
utilities plan to dam the Colum
bia river at Mica creek.
The proposal called for sever
al American interests to build
the dam which the British Col
umbia government would then
own. The government would
have to .spend up to $60,000,000
in generating stations. In return
the province would get the 2,
400,000 H.P. generated by these
stations from stored waters be
fore they reached the border.
Bennett said his government
preferred the provisionally-approved
agreement with Kaiser
aluminum for its proposed low
level storage dam at Arrow
lakes. The proposed Kaiser dam
would increase the power po
tential of ' the Columbia river.
High Court Upholds
Chiropractor's Term
Salem U.R) The Oregon Su
preme Court today upheld the
conviction of Dr. Ross H. Elliott,
Portland chiropractor, for main
taining i an office to produce
abortions. ;
Br. Elliott was convicted of
violating the Oregon nuisance
act in connection with the abor
tion charge and was sentenced
to six months in jail- The chiro
practor claimed the nuisance act
was vague and uncertain and
therefore unconstitutional.
But the high court, in an opin
ion by Chief Justice Earl Ct La
tourette, noted that the act had
been construed and upheld with
respect to a similar indictment
in-. 1909, and said it was suffic
iently definite to warn the de
fendant of the crminal conse
quences of his conduct. The Su
preme Court ruled that the act
was constitutional.
