The third grader, of Span-; ish-American ancestry, was j carrying her doll when she ! was brought to the Catholic j home for unwed mothers a month ago. She was delivered j by caesarean section. ; Dr. Chester L. Cooley, chief of the medical staff of St. Elizabeth's hospital, said both the mother and the baby were in good condition, but pointed out that the girl hasn't even asked to see the child. "We will leave that up to her, of course," he said. "It's her baby, and if she wants to j see it she can." Aiked for Orang The doctor said the 85 pound mother asked on the delivery table if it would hurt. The youngest such case in medical annals was that of a 5V year old Peruvian girl who gave birth some years ago. A nine-year-old Negro girl gave birth in Little Rock, Ark., last summer. Sister Celestine of St. Eli zabeth's said the San Jose girl came to the hospital as a ward of the Santa Clara County ju venile court. The girl charged that the father of her child was Harry N. Lee, 29, her mother's com- monlaw husband. Lee denied the accusation and pleaded innocent to charges of lewd Sister Celestine said the and lascivious conduct in su- girl's mother may adopt the perior court last week.

Richard L. Neuberger (D-Ore.). The proposed measure 'au thored by Sens. Warren G. Magnuson and Henry M. Jackson would grant Oregon and Washington two alterna tives to use future federal highway aid funds to pay off bridge financing bonds, or to be reimbursed by the federal government for all highway improvements under 10 years prior to enactment ofi the Federal Interstate High way Act. The second alterna tive would cost an estimated S6 billion across the nation. Chances for Aid Dark Neuberger commented that chances for federal aid for the Oregon-Washington bridge were "very dark indeed." He said when Washington State Highways Director W. E. Bugge testified before the Senate Public Works Commit tee "he failed to persuade the Committee that the highway departments of the two states acted with wisdom in float ing the bonds for that bridge on the eve of Congressional passage of the highway bill, which would have authorized the bridge for 90 per cent fed eral aid." t The Oregon Senator also observed that the Magnuson Jackson bill would extend the bulk of its benefits to the eastern states with their miles of toll turnpikes, at the ex pense of western states where toll roads are a rarity. Neuberger suggested the states or Oregon and Washing ton should pay off the bridge bonds with receipts from gas taxes and license plate fees.
