Sgt. Harold L. French of Den ver testified in Federal court that he and Murphy leased the aircraft on the same day Mur phy introduced him to John Jo seph Frank, a Washington attor ney and former FBI man. Frank, 42, is accused of acting as an unregistered agent in be half of the Dominican republic. Galindez, a former Columbia university professor and an out spoken foe of Dominican strong O man Rafael L. Trujillo, disap peared in New York City on March 13, 1956, or possibly the evening of March 10. FBI Investigation Murphy, who is believed to have had some information about the Galindez disappear ance, vanished in the Domini can Republic last Dec. 3. There have been charges that Murphy flew Galindez to the Dominican Republic. The FBI has been in vestigating the Galindez disap pearance. French, a key prosecution itness, said Frank was intro duced as a "Mr. Kane" and was ccompanied by two other men to a meeting at the Linden, N.J., airport March 6, 1956. French, an aircraft mainte nance technician, identified the two men who accompanied "Mr. Kane" as Rafel Arturo Espaillat and Felix W. Bernardino, both former Dominican Republic con sul generals in New York. French said Murphy called him as a consultant in the leas ing of a surplus military twin engine Beachcraft airplane. He testified he last saw the plene and Murphy on March 12 . it an airfield near Amityville, - Long Island, N.Y. By then, he , said, they had boosted the plane's range from 850 miles to 1,400 miles with the addition of extra fuel capacity. Auiopsy Report Said Awaiting Information District Attorney Thomas J. Reeder reported today that the cause for the death of Leo Jeffer son Culley, 62, Medford, who was found dead in city jail Sat urday is pending reports from the Crime laboratory in Port land. The district attorney said an autopsy had been preformed. He further stated prior to the autop sy the body had been embalmed making it more difficult to ascer tain the cause of death. Culley, according to Chief Charles P. Champlin, was lodged in city jail about 8 p.m. Friday on charges of being drunk in public. It is reported he did not appear to be sick at any time nor did he ask officers for help. About 2 p.m. Saturday officers noted Culley was lying face-down on his bunk and appeared to be unconscious. It was then that he was discovered to be dead. Police records show Culley has been arrested several times this year on similar charges. He was a former patient at Camp White, they said, and it was reported he had a medical history of heart trouble.

Mayer point ed out that surgery. X-ray, and radium are the only treatments which have ever cured cancer. Serums, salves and mechanical gadgets are useless and danger ous, he said.

"The American Cancer Society and the medical profession will let the public know when new treatments have been approved," he added. Dr. R. W. Schwan stressed the seven "danger signals" any sore that does not heal, lump or thickening, unusual bleeding, change in wart or mole, persistent indigestion, persistent cough, change in normal bowel habits.

STORE CENTRAL POINT Slight Impairment Of Speech Noted, Noon Bulletin Says (Continued from Page One) received a clean bill of health in a report dated Nov. 11. This was the third major ill ness suffered by the President in the last 25 months. Today's announcement came two years, one months, and two days after the President suffer ed a heart attack at Denver Sept. 24, 1955. Later, Mrs. Wheaton said def initely that the heart itself was not involved in the President's illness. . Mrs. Wheaton said Mrs. Eisen hower was with the President part of the night but that the President "slept most of the night." Mrs. Wheaton told reporters in response to questions that she did not know whether Nixon, Rogers and Adams had consid ered the possible delegation of some of the President's powers during his incapacity. The illness obviously eleminat ed the President's scheduled Par is trip for the Dec. 16-18 NATO summit meeting although Mrs. Wheaton said she had nothing to say on that at present. Mrs. Wheaton also did not know whether next week's ses sion with legislative leaders would be cancelled outright or possibly held with Nixon and other administration leaders. Mrs. Wheaton said she did not know whether either Nixon or Rogers actually saw the Presi dent today. The medical bulletin did not indicate at what time the speech impairment was first noticed. Mrs. Wheaton said the doctors have not informed her when the cerebral occlusion actually oc curred. Mrs. Eisenhower remained close to her husband. Son At White House The couple's son, Maj. John Eisenhower, was at the White House part of the day. Mrs. Wheaton said she knew of no discussion so far that any of the president's duties might be delegated during his illness. She said she knew of no of ficial duties that absolutely re quired -action by the President today and that no papers had been sent him so far as she knew. County Tax Money Is Apportioned County Treasurer Karl Ja nouch reported today that $1, 100,120.74 was received by his department Monday from the county tax collector. He ex plained that this amount repre sented 31.8 per cent of the total amount expected from the tax assessments.

Tickers ran nearly 10 minutes behind actual floor transactions, recalling the wide heart attack break of Sept. 26, 1955. and the lighter drop in the ileitis at tack June 8, 1956. But time was in favor of the market today. There was actu ally only 20 minutes after the news was announced from the White House until the final clos ing gong ended trading. That ending of deals turned sales to the Pacific Coast Mark et in San Francisco. It gave time for traders to reconsider if they wanted to leave their sell orders in the brokers hand to be ex ecuted at the opening Wednes day. If so that opening could be a tremendous one with spec ialists hard put to try to find buyers for the offerings at pric es far below tonight's closing levels. These closings were down $4 or $5 a share from Monday's last prices. The losses would have been much wider if the news had broken earlier, the ex perts said. LIVESTOCK Portland (U.P.)
