A. D. Jones. Jones, 45, son of the late Yale coach Tad Jones, was found dead in his Imperial ho tel room May 8 with a cut lip, a blackened eye and other body bruises. An autopsy dis closed he died of a cerebral Hemorrhage caused by an "out side force." Crowley's American - born Japanese attorney, Arthur K. Mori, said the arrest was a "last ditch" attempt by Jap anese authorities to question Crowley. He said he doubted there was enough grounds for an indictment. Assistant Police Chief Goro Nakamura admitted the evi dence against Crowley ' was "circumstantial" and "not con clusive." Crowley, S, was arrested at the Imperial Hotel on an of ficial charge of "causing bodily injuries leading to death." A U. S. Embassy spokesman said U. S. officials would fol low the case to make sure Crowley receives due process of the law. Under Japanese law, Crow ley can be held and questioned by police for 48 hours. Then the case must be sent to the procurator's (prosecutor's) of fice, where the decision would be made to file an indictment or release him. Jones, Crowley and Mary land accountant Frederick M. Kissinger, 62, arrived in Tokyo three days before Jones' death. The three men shared the same hotel suite. On the evening May 7, ac cording to reports given po lice, Jones, Crowley and an other man made a round of the bars. Kissinger remained in the hotel room. Crowley and Jones returned about 3. a.m. Thursday. Crowley re tired but Jones remained up drinking alone. lit' y 1! 7 " As 4 Ken Knackstedt photo) , ing to keep chrome on the government market. Manley noted six points which a cooperative process ing plant will achieve. They include creating a new indus try in southern Oregon, giving the chrome miners an oppor tunity to continue operating, bolster a faltering economy, enable our miners to meet for eign competition and still pay American wages, and con serve the minerals and stop high-grading the mines. Such a program also will keep the foreign operator on some kind of reasonable price list since processing plants are moving into foreign countries. Endorsed The program has been en dorsed by Oregon senators and representatives in Wash ington, providing the persons involved express an interest in such a cooperative effort themselves. Plans for financing a ferro- chrome plant still are in the planning stage, Manley noted. It could be done from private funds , or on a cooperative share basis, hy contracts for specified shipments of ferro chrome on which banks will loan money, or it could be handled as the government has subsidized uranium plants and the nickel plant in Riddle, Manley said. Grid Star About 5 or 5:30 a.m. Kissin ger was awakened by a crash. He found Jones on the floor, his face bruised, either from the fall or from knocking over a lamp. A doctor was called. He sewed up a cut on Jones' lip but said he was in good condition otherwise. About 5:30 p.m., Kissinger noted something wrong with Jones, he told police, and called the doctor again. The doctor pronounced Jones dead.

Chief Deputy U. S. Marshal James H. . Chenoweth of the territory's third judicial di vision, here from Anchorage to attend the Western States crime conference, told of the rigors of weather, isolation and great distances that are all part of the day's work for the territory's strong arms of the law, particularly the forces of the municipal agencies, the department of territorial police and the of fice of the United States mar shal. Marshal Chenoweth was speaker at the conference ban quet Tuesday evening at the Rogue Valley Country club. In 'addition to the three major agencies, there are others that maintain law and order from the Canadian bor der to the northmost tip of the Aleutian chain. These m elude the federal bureau of in vestigation, the U.S. treasury enforcement agents, the bu reau of Indian affairs and the fish and wildlife service. All these are "bound together adhere together not so much through pride as through necessity," Marshal Cheno weth said.

Peter Townsend dined with Princess Margaret at her Clar ence House residence Tuesday night, their third meeting in eigth days. Queen Mother Elizabeth was not present at the dinner although she shares Clarence House with the princess. Townsend issued a state ment shortly after his return last month from a "round the world tour that "nothing has changed" since October, 1J956, when the princess renounced her love for him. But he has seen her several times since then and is ex pected to visit her once more1 before he returns Saturday to Belgium where he now makes his home.

Designed to Make Your Shop ping Easier. 55 55 A MONTH DELIVERS IT TO YOUR case in Alaska, he can make one anywhere," the chief deputy said, referring to de cisions of the U. S. Supreme Court that affect enforcement efforts of all the investigating agencies in the territory. There is legislation pending that would give the FBI a freer hand in its search for evidence, but there is none in the works that "would give us an even break," the mar shal said. The court-imposed limitations which hamper the officers in the handling of civil cases soon will be ex tended to include criminal cases, he said. One of the problems in Alaska results from the 24 hour arraignment law, which sometimes must be ignored, because often it takes 36 hours to get a prisoner before a com missioner. Even a simple case may require many miles of Indians Not Ready For Trusteeship To End, They Say ' Warm Springs OP) Ter mination of federal trustee ship over the confederated tribes of the Warm Springs Indian reservation is out of the question for many years. That opinion was empha sized by tribal leaders and the tribe's attorney, Owen Panner of Bend, at a meeting of the Interim Committee on Indian Affairs at the agency this week. Panner and tribal spokesmen presented a united front in opposition to the fed eral termination policy set forth in a congressional reso lution enacted five years ago. "The government must re verse this trend of saying to the Indians 'We are going to terminate you at the earliest possible date'," Panner said. "They suddenly told the Klamath 'you are out,' but the Klamaths were not ready and an impossible situation has been created." Warm Springs representa tives at the meeting urged that the state maintain an In terim Indian Affairs commit tee on a continuing basis. Leaders expressed belief that the government might have been restrained from head long action toward the Klam aths if such an interim group had been in existence. "Termination should come to the Warm Springs on the well-considered decision of congressional, state and In dian committees," Olney Patt, tribal council member, said. HOME. FILLY ft travel and large expenditures from the carefully-watched law enforcement budgets, the marshal explained. In one case he mentioned, apprehending a half-breed In dian who had shot and killed his cousin in a brawl necessi tated traveling 7,000 miles by plane, 450 miles in a small boat and 150 miles on foot. Bringing the murderer to justice was a $2,000 effort, and when the criminal was tracked down, his first reac tion was relief that he was found by the police, and not his native brother. Apathy of Public that in Alaska, as elsewhere, one of the big problems is the law - enforcement problems. He mentioned the needs for apathy of the public toward closer scrutiny of the "eye ball" witness, for , funds to engage interpreters and trans lators, for development of pathological laboratories. Through the efforts of the Alaska Peace Officers associa tion, of which Chenoweth is president, many advances have been made. A $500 schol arship is provided annually for a student who will major in police administration. A free 160-hour training course was instituted in October, 1956, and continued until June, 1957. A secondary course in investigation was started this past February and will conclude in June. In the fall, a course in criminology, offering college credit, will be offered. ' "If and when statehood comes, there will be a transi tion period of from five to 10 years," the marshal predicted. He added that it is his opinion that Alaska will not be divid ed into counties, because of the expanse that would be in volved, and that in all proba bility, there will be United States marshals in Alaska for at least another 35 years. Introduced by Chief The speaker was introduced by Medford Chief of Police Charles P. Champlin. Later Police Detective Lyle Perkins told of Chenoweth's accom plishments as president of the Alaska Peace Officers asso ciation. Chief Champlin was speak er at a luncheon yesterday sponsored by the Josephine county sheriff's office. At the morning session, Bishop Dwaine E. Nelson of the Church of Jesus Christ of Lat ter Day Saints gave the invo cation. Wives of the officers were taken on a tour yester day to Oregon Caves. Bids for location of the 1959 conference were made in late afternoon, and the host city for next year was to be named before adjournment today.

Thompson True Knowledge of God's Love Is Wav to Peace . m True knowledge of God's love for man is the unfailing way to find lasting home, peace, and security, John D. Pickett of Chicago, said Mon day evening in a Christian Sci ence lecture here. He said that the understand ing of God's love for man is available today. It has proven that divine love can heal prob lems of marriage, business and world affairs, as well as those of sickness and sin, the speak er reported. Pickett spoke at the First Church of Christ, Scientist, here in the church auditorium. To find security, he said, know God's love. The speaker explained the meaning of prayer as it is un derstood by Christian Scien tists, emphasizing that prayer is the only means of healing taught in Christian Science.
