Police Seek Truth In Mans Confession Of Killing 11 Men San Francisco (U.P1 Police of three cities today tried to pick out tbe truth In the tangled confessions of a smirking killer who. has admitted five murders and claims six others. In the past 10 days, Stephen Nash, a 33-year-old truck driver, has claimed he killed 11 Cali fornians to get revenge on a so ciety that sent him to prison. But police from San Francisco, Los Angeles and Oakland said they were wary of Nash's claims, which if true, would make him the bloodiest kilier in California history. 'Cunning and Calculating' The fact that Nash has de manded $1,000 for details on his latest boasta indicate the tall, saturnine truck driver is "en joying all this immensely," San Francisco golice Inspector Al Nelder said. "He's cunning and he's calcu lating and in a happy frame of mind," Nelder said. "But before I believe him, I'd make him prove these last six." Nash was picked up In Los Angeles 10 days ago in connec tion with an assault charge. He served time in San Quentin Pris on from 1943 to 1954 on a rob bery charge and six months last year in Alameda county jail for battery. He also has a history of sex perversion. Farm Gross National Product Increases Ithaca. N. Y. (U.R) The farm gros national product output per man hour has increased from 75 cents to about $1.70 during the last 25 years, accord ing to Dr. M. C. Bond of the New York State Extension Ser vice. Bond said the per hour dollar value has gone up 78 per cent in industry compared with 127 per cent on farms. "Agriculture has undergone a tremendous expansion in the use of mechanical aids to producing, processing and marketing," he said. Dr. Bond explained the fig ures or the gross national pro duct as the total value of all goods and services produced by the nation's economy.

CALL LINiNGER'S a! now working at the Pole and Instead of routine pleas of in nocent, Nash unexpectedly made appalling confessions to the mur ders of two Southern Californ ians, one of whom was a 10-year-old boy, and the murders of per sons in San Francisco, Sacra mento and Alameda county. The toothless Nash was in dicted by the Los Angeles county grand jury for the slaying of 10-year-old Larry Rise at Santa Monica and the killing of John W. Berg, 27, a Los Angeles hair dresser. In San Francisco he was indicted Monday night for the Aug. 18 murder of Robert Eche, 21. Alameda county police are still investigating his confession of the murder of William Burns, 23, a transient whose body was found floating in San Francisco Bay last December. The other murder Nash told of was that of a transient in Sacramento. J ' 'p J L - 1 $ x ' T1 1 II- Men's sizes. Vanguard Reach America Via Mercy Lift McGuire AFB, OI.R) The vanguard of 15.000 Hungarian refugees to be brought to this country by a military mercy air sea lift landed here today. They were told by a representative of President Eisenhower: "You are among friends." The 199 Hungarians, first to arrive under the massive Oper ation Safe Haven ordered by the White House, landed in four silver planes of the Military Air Transport Service. The Hungarians were happy and excited, but some were a bit worried about the future. As each refugee filed from his plane before the base terminal building here, he was greeted Rules Suggested If Buildings Burn Columbus, O. (U.R) Rural residents faced with fire in their homes or farm buildings will probably panic and do the wrong thing, according to an Ohio State University safety expert, unless they familiarize them selves with the following meas ures: See that everybody Is out of the burning building, but . . . Do not attempt to remove livestock, machinery, or house hold goods unless it can be done without exposure to smoke or highly heated air. Call the fire department. Use whatever first aid fire department equipment you have, but . . . When the fire department comes, let trained men take over and keep out of their way. If you can re-enter the build ing without exposure to deadly smoke or heated air, close as many windows and doors as you can reach. If possible, keep an emer gency 3,000-gallon cistern near important buildings. Contact your insurance agent immediately. GAIN AND LOSS Hartford, Conn.

Few Belongings Newsmen who watched the refugees enter Munich and had flown with them in this first military lift, knew that they needed friends.

Many of them were fighters who had attacked Russian soldiers and the hated Hungarian security police with rifles and grenades. One slim. 21-year-old youth asked a reporter on the plane, through an interpreter, how he could become an officer or sold ier in the U. S. Army. He ex plained that Russian soldiers had killed his father as they walked together on a Budapest street. "He says he hopes that once in his life he can fight against the Russians," the interpreter said, "because the Russians killed his father and he wants to give that back to his father." Almost none of the 50 wanted his name published, fearing re prisals against kin still in Hun gary. The four planes arriving to-! day touched down after a 4,475- ! mile flight from Munich, Ger many.
