Crazed Father Climaxes Quarrel By Slaying Four Sparta, Mich.-dTIi-A crazed lather climaxed a violent ar gument with his estranged wife Tuesday night by grab bing three shotguns, killing lour of their five children and setting the house on fire. The fifth child was injured seriously when the father, Orland McMillan, struck him on the head with one of the shotguns. McMillan was found un conscious by police about one mile from the rural home where the murders occurred. The fire he started was put out before it could cause much damage. Children Identified The dead children were Identified as Ronald William, 7; Bonnie Jane, 6; Richard, 1, and Michele Yvonne, 10 months. The injured child, Orland Benjamin, 8,' was tak en to a hospital where he was in "fair" condition with head injuries. Sheriff Arnold Pigorsh said McMillan's wife, Edith, about 45, called police late Tuesday night from a neighbor's home and said "my husband is beat ing me." Pigorsh said Mrs. McMillan had been under court order to refrain from visiting the children who had been living with McMillan in the farm home. Going to Take Children ' Tuesday night she went to the home and told McMillan she was going to take the children. McMillan, an unemployed factory worker, admitted the murders. Mrs. McMillan was taken to a hospital in Grand Rapids about 15 miles south of Spar ta, where she was reported in a state of shock. Doctors said she had cuts on her face. Police said McMillan broke down and cried in the jail at Sparta. , He apparently intended to kill himself after shooting the children but "probably didn't have enough nerve," officers said. McMillan admitted having "a couple of glasses of whis key" at a brother's home1 be fore going to his home. He broke a screen in the back door to get in, police said.

Mining Congress Hears of Federal Silver Purchase San Francisco-TOPD-The U.S. Treasury now holds 2,800,000 ounces of silver with a coin age value of more than $2 billion in excess of its cost, a California mining executive said today. David L. Feathers, vice president of the Bunker Hill company of San Francisco, told the American Mining Congress he cited these fig ures to refute charges by some economists that the gov ernment is "subsidizing" the nation's silver industry. Feathers said some experts have claimed that the govern ment is buying silver at "ex travagant prices" with the taxpayers' money. "The fact is," he said, "the monetization of gold and sil ver never involves the expen diture of money simply be cause the paper issued for it is in effect merely a receipt for the metal so deposited, or else the metal itself is minted into coins. "If government silver pur chases constitute a subsidy and misuse of the taxpayers' money, would that we had more of it." In a resolution presented to the delegates, the Mining Congress urged that Congress restore the gold standard and that the government aid and encourage other governments in restoring gold and silver money as a standard of wealth. Thornton Joins in Appeal for Damages Salem- (DPD - Attorney Gen eral Robert Y. . Thornton Tuesday joined in an appeal for damages for an accident on a Boss Island Sand and Gravel Co. barge reversed by the State Supreme court. The appeal is now before the U.S. Supreme court. A Ross Island company em ployee, Harry A. Hahn, was hurt in a fall from a ladder and a jury returned a sub stantial verdict in his favor. The Pregon Supreme court reversed the decision' on the grounds that the injury was on navigable water and his compensation was under the federal Longshoremen's and Harbor Workers' act. Thornton said his stand was that accidental injuries are subject to jurisdiction of state laws and state courts. NOT FOR EATTNG New York-fCPD-A. P.

Father, Son Die In Factory Fire In East Portland Portland (UPD A Portland businessman and his teen-age J son died in a fire at their factory warehouse in south east Portland early today. The victims were identified as Clyde R. Pattison, 45, and John Joseph Pattison, 16. Pat tison was the owner of the plant. The spectacular blaze in the three-story structure broke out about 1:11 a.m. and fire men still were at the scene hours later. Damage was esti mated in excess of $75,000. The three - alarm fire brought out rigs from Park rose, Gresham, Portland air base and Multnomah districts 9, 10 and 12. Firemen had to string hoses for five blocks. The blaze broke rapidly through the roof and leaped high into the sky. Shared Apartment It was after daylight when the ruins had cooled enough to allow recovery of the bodies. The two victims shared a third-floor apart ment. They were burned be yond recognition. The 80-by-140-foot building was surrounded by open, fields.. Firemen said that a few weeks ago, during the dry weather spell, the blaze would have covered "the whole countryside." Pattison manufactured un finished chests of drawers. The other manufacturers rented space in the building. One constructed pre-cut homes and another built kitchen cabinets. ' The fire apparently broke out not long after the victims had retired.
