DA Plans To Drop
Kidnaping Charges
Portland (U.R) District
Attorney William Langley said
Ratnrriav Ytv would move for dis
missal of two kidnaping charges9
pending against Jimmie Valen
tine, who was acquitted last year
of attempting to kidnap George
Brice III, young son of a promi
nent Portland couple.
Langley's decision came after
Valentine, 42, was committed to
the state hospital for drug ad-'
diction.
The two pending charges ac
cuse Valentine of kidnaping the
Brice boy's mother, Mrs. George
Brice, and her maid, Lizzie
Brown, as part of a plot to ad-
duct the boy from his school.
Langley said the state had no
more evidence than was present
ed in the case in which Valen
tine was found innocent last
year.
Valentine was commited by
Circuit Judge William Dickson
to the state hospital at Salem
Thursday for treatment of drug
use after Valentine's recent ar
rest by city police.

Freeway Open To Public
Portland (U.R! The new Ban

hill said one of the. children,
five-year-old Cheryl Ann, was

filth, Bronhill said. The other
child, seven-months-old Candace
Rae, was on a davenport, held in
by chairs.
The 44-year-old logger and his
26-year-old wife waived grand
jury proceedings. Circuit Judge
Howard K. Zimmerman said
before passing sentence that the
case "shocks ithe decency of all
the people irr Igiis community."
Rad&ell told the court he kept
his daughter in the cage because
she would go to the kitchen at
night and throw things out of the

confined,", he said.
Juvenile Court will meet Mon

children.

Small Audience Hears
Coon-Neuberger Talk
Baker (U.R) The smallest
crowd of the current debate
series Friday night heard Rep.
Sam Coon, Republican, and Sen.
Richard Neuberger, Democrat,
review their opposing concepts
of Northwest power production.
400 in Audience
About 400 persons were scat
tered through the 900-seat high
school auditorium in Coon's
home town. Because of its near
ness to th- controversial Hells
Canyon sit ? on the Snake river,
the town was expected to pro
vide one of the largest partisan
crowds during the series of 10
debates scheduled by the two
Congressmen on the issue of pub
lic vs. partnership financing of
John Day dam on the Columbia
river. ' :
Poor attendance was blamed
on opening of the deer hunting
season Saturday and a Baker
highschool football game with
RiShiand, Wash..
. Neuberger reiterated his con
tension that partnership power
would be more costly, than fed
eral power from the Bonneville
Power Administration. Coon said
the costs should not be compar
ed on the basis of Neuberger's
figures because Bonneville sells
power only at wholesale, not at
retail as private agencies would
do with John Day power.
Western Railroads
Fight Bigger Cut
For Eastern Lines
Salem (U.R)" ' Should east
ern railroads succeed in their
efforts to get a larger' share of
rates from transcontinental ship
ments originating in the West
and moving to points east of Chi
cago, it could deprive western
railroads an estimated $90,000,
000, the Public Utilities Com
mission said here today.
Clifford W. Ferguson, super
intendent of rail transportation
for the PUC, has been desigined
as counsel for the nine western
states to present a petition in in
tervention before the Interstate
Commerce Commission.
More than 30 eastern rail
roads, including the Pennsyl
vania and New York Central,
petitioned the ICC, for, an in
crease of some 30 per cent of the
rates covering long shipments of
grain, lumber, potatoes, fresh
fruits and vegetables and others.
These new divisions are de
manded from western transcon
tinental raliroads, including the
Union Pacific, Southern Pacific,
Great Northern and Northern Pa
cific. It is estimated that loss to
Southern Pacific alone would
amount to more than $20,000,
000. The PUC said that because of
the ultimate impact such case
might have on shippers, nine of
the western states have joined in
the petition to intervene.
An '-improved' flameresistant
treatment for cotton; fabric,
much superior to previous treat
ments, has been developed by
Department of Agriculture re
search.
