Maloney Jury
Hears Recording
Over Objections
Portland W A tape re
cording, subject of much de
bate during the gambling - con
spiracy trial of racetrack figure
Thomas -E. Maloney, finally was
played to the jury over defense
objections Wednesday.
Raymond F. Clark, who testi
fied earlier he made the tape,
identified the voices on it as
those of Maloney, Joseph P.
McLaughlin, and ex-District At
torney William Langley.
Poker in Conversation
The tape recording carried a
conversation, among other
things, about poker, punch
boards, politics and '"China
Joints" as well as profanity.
The jury listened to the re
cording with earphones while
holding transcripts of it in their
hands.
Howard Lonergan, defense at
torney, renewed his objections
to the tape but did not elaborate
much in front of the jury since
he had gone over the points pre
viously in the judge's chambers.
The tape playing was only a
part of Wednesday's highlights.
Lt. Bard Purcell, brother of
ex-Police Chief Jim Purcell, tes
tified that Maloney wanted the
police bureau to ease up on vice
prosecutors, saying it was bad
for business in general.
Denies Frame Request
Clark, under cross-examinations,
denied that he asked Clif
ford O. Bennett, former operator
of the 8212 club, to help frame
Mayor Terry Schrunk. He said
he did go to Great Falls, Mont.,
in the summer of 1956 and ask
ed Bennett to come back to Port
land "but I didn't ask him to
help frame anyone."
Another witness, Howard Rid
dell, a sound engineer and tech
nician, said he examined the
tape recording and found no al
teration of the audible and in
telligible portions of the tape.
French Communists
Order Demonstrations
Paris 0? The French Com
unist party ordered its five mil
lion followers to hold nation
wide strikes and demonstrations
Thursday against "the dirty lit
tle war" in Algeria. Widespread
violence was feared.
Communist unions joined with
non-Communist unions Wednes
day in turning the nation's in
dustrial life into choas in a 12
hour strike of gas and electrical
workers. The Reds believed the
18-day-old government crisis
would paralyze police attempts
to crush the demonstrations.
The Communists also hoped
widespread disorders would
block the efforts of tough, anti
Communist conservative leader
Antoine Pinay to win National
Assembly approval Friday as the
24th post-war premier. His
chances appeared shaky.
In the Day's News
By FRANK JENKINS
The state of Oregon has been
doing a lot of talking recently
about the importance of in
creased industrial development.
That prompts this question:
Just how important IS in
creased industrial development
to the economy of a state or a
region?
Inspectors Question
Paisley Suspect
Lakeview tt?l Postal in
spectors Wednesday questioned
Jesse Hibdon, 30, Merced, Calif.,
suspect in the holdup of the
Paisley postoffice and the slay
ing of John Troy Lawson last
Thursday.
Hibdon was captured Tuesday
by Harold Broderick, fire chief
at the coastal town of Hammond
who was deer hunting in the
Lapine area between Paisley and
Bend.
Hibdon was brought to the
Lake county jail here where his
partner in the holdup, Donald
Ferguson, 32, Bakersfield, Calif.,
was taken after his capture
north of Paisley shortly after
the getaway car was found aban
doned. Lake County Sheriff Thomas
Elliott said Hibdon admitted tak
ing part in the holdup but de
nied that he shot Lawson.
OLDEST BAKER DIES
Wilkes Barre, Pa. (IP) Wil
liam H. Alden, 94, who at his
retirement in June was believed
to be the oldest baker in the
country, died Wednesday. Alden
was a baker for 78 years.

MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE THRES
"COR an answer to that ques-
tien, let's turn to some U.S.
department of commerce figures
that are quoted by the Klamath
County chamber of commerce
in its current bulletin entitled
Klamath Keynotes. The com
merce department estimates that
each new industry employing
200 persons will support the fol
lowing increases in the total
economy of the community in
which it is located:
393 new homes.
$75,000 in added retail sales.
$2,500,000 in new taxable
wealth.
$1,500,000 in new life insur
ance sales.
1400 new population.
$1,000,000 in new bank de
posits. It should be understood, of
course, that these estimates in
clude not only the new em
ployees themselves and their
families but the added service
industry people that is to say,
those who shine each other's
shoes and wash each other's
shirts, etc. who will be attract
ed to the area by the new in
dustrial development.
TN THE light of these figures,
- I think it must be agreed by
EVERYONE that new industrial
development is worth going
after.
And
I'd say
It's high time for the state of
Oregon to GET BUSY.
