Search for Negro
Abuctors Spreads
To Louisiana
Poplarville, Miss. -JUPD FBI
agents, working with state
and local officers, fanned out
into nearby Louisiana and
surrounding Mississippi coun
ties today in the search for a
lynch party and its Negro vic
tim. The two-state search for the
young Negro, an accused rap
ist, and the masked mob that
abducted him early Saturday
was begun Monday. It was
widened today after a meet
ing Monday night of more
than 30 of the 40 FBI agents
working on the case in this
south Mississippi town.
Most Leads Exhausted
The meeting followed an
hour-long telephone report,
apparently t o Washington
headquarters, by R. W. Bach
man, New Orleans FBI chief..
The widening of the search
for Mack Charles Parker, 23,
a truck driver, and his kid
napers began after authori
ties exhausted most leads' in
Pearl River county.
Some of the agents returned
today to a neighboring Louis
iana parish for the second day
to step up questioning of per
sons in the Bogalusa, La.,
area.
Bogalusa, the former home
town of the white pregnant
woman Parker was accused of
rcping, is 21 miles west of
here, just across the Missis
sippi river.
Residents Questioned
However, questioning of
scores of residents here, in the
Hattiesburg area where the
woman now lives and in
neighboring Lamar county
was continuing. Parker lived
in the Lamar county town of
Lumberton.
Parker was beaten savagely
with pistols and clubs and
dragged head first down three
flights of stairs from the
third-floor jail. He was dump
ed into a waiting car by the
masked and hooded men. The
abductors carried a short coil
of rope.

Oregon Crash
Kills Idaho Man
Caldwell, Idaho - (UPD - A
Boise' man is dead and anoth
er is listed in fair condition
at Caldwell Memorial hospital
today after a one-car accident
near Rome, Ore.
Wayne D. Abbott, 36, died
enroute to the hospital here.
The injured man was Merlin
Peck, 27, who underwent sur
gery at the hospital last night.
Oregon State police said the
car was owned by Abbott but
was being driven by Peck, en
route from Boise to Reno. The
accident occurred on a slight
curve along U. S. 95 eight
miles west of Rome. Officers
said Peck apparently lost con
trol and the car plunged over
an eight-foot embankment on
to rocks. Both men were
thrown from the car.
Ether was first used in a
major operation in Boston in
1846. 1
By MRS. EVE NYE
State Representative
From Jackson County
Salem-Ever since the first
of the session I've been want
ing to write about the things
that go on in connection with
a legislator's life that women
are particularly interested in
-not that they aren't interest
ed in legislation, I hasten to
add, because some of my mpst
thoughtful letters regarding
legislation come from my
women constituents-but there
are many activities aside from
lawmaking which enliven and
enrich the life of one who
takes on this job.
Many of these extra cur
ricular activities I have to
forego because they are usual
ly planned- by and for the
wives and secretaries whose
lives are not completely gear
ed to a gavel. However, I
manage to take' in a few, and
of course thoroughly enjoy
them when I can. Now that
the steam is really on and
we're having all day and
sometimes evening sessions, it
takes some - maneuvering to
work in anything outside the
Capitol Building.
Take yesterday-the women
legislators and wives of legis
lators were invited to a "cof
fee" at the home of Mrs. Rob
ert Elfstrom at 10:30 a.m. in
honor of Mrs. Mark Hatfield.
Some of the gals had taken
up a collection and purchased
a beautiful antique chest for
the Hatfield home, which is
undergoing remodelling, oppo
site Bush Park.
To accommodate those of us
who couldn't socialize at 10:30
(the House convenes at 10:00),
the hostess agreed to have the
coffee hot at 9:30, but that
had to be the morning when
I had an 8 o'clock committee
meeting, and a 9 o'clock Re
publican caucus.

College Books Said
Worth $4 Million
Portland 0JPD The State
Board of Higher Education
was told Monday that state-
owned colleges have more
than $4 million dollars worth
of books.
State Librarian William
Carlson said the University of
Oregon library at Eugene with
600,000 volumes valued at $1,-
700,000 is the largest. Oregon
State has 356,000 volumes val
ued at $1,549,000. Carlson ex
plained the books at Oregon
State were more technical
and scientific in nature and
thus were more costly per
volume.
Oregon PTA Congress
Convention Opens
Corvallis - (UPD The annual
convention of the Oregon Con
gress of Parents , and Teachers
opened here today with up to
1200 delegates expected from
the 710 locals throughout the
state.
The PTA's board of man
agers voted Monday night to
recommend Medford for the
1960 convention.
Because of uniform drain
age Kansas has no natural
lakes.
legislature, and I, thinking
that the party might still be
on, dashed out at noon, only
to find the hostess in a sun
suit out on the patio and the
guests gone. Mrs. Elfstrom
obligingly reheated the coffee
and the coffee cake, and we
gratefully accepted it as our
lunch, and sped back for an
afternoon session.
One of the Salem Represen
tatives and his wife had in
vited all freshman legislators
for a little get-together be
tween 6 and 8 that evening,
so I dashed home at 6, chang
ed my dress, got to the party
at 6:30 and left at 7 to get
back to a hearing before the
House Education committee.
That' lasted until after 10, and
all I had to do after that was
to read the day's papers and
look over the 37 bills which
were on our calendar for
final passage the next day.
You've guessed it. Thirty
seven bills took all day and a
two-and-a-half hour evening
session.
I have this to say for the
House of Representatives. It
is really a deliberative body
-more so, from what I hear,
than the Senate. A bulging
calendar doesn't stop anybody
from touching off a floor fight,
making a call of the House,
sending bills back to commit
tee for further examination,
trying out all the parliamen
tary maneuvers in the book,
etc., etc. It is interesting, edu
cational and above all, democ
racy in action. Do I have to
add that it is also a bit strenu
ous? r
Today for the first time,
we didn't finish our calendar.
We finally adjourned for the
day at 5:45, after which the
Education Committee met
briefly, I. got home at 6:45
and went back at 8 to listen
to the Tax Committee wrestle
with the tax program which
they have called back to com
mittee after being on the
calendar for a vote this morn
ing. Tea Service Given
This was the morning that
was selected to make the tra
ditional presentation of a ster
ling tea service to the wife of
the Speaker. When Represen
tative Skelton arose on a
point of personal privilege,
Speaker Bob looked pained
but said, "State your point."
Representative Skelton asked
that the Speaker appoint a
committee to find Mrs. Dun
can and bring her to the
Speaker's stand. The Speaker
remarked that he didn't know
what was going on but he
did know that, we had thirty
five bills on the calendar, etc.,
etc. Of course, Marijane was
brought in, presented with the
gift, which was gorgeous, and
made a charming acknowledg
ment. Bob got a tie clasp and
cuff links in sterling with the
Capitol dome embossed on
them. After that we settled
down to our bill books.
The. word now is that we
might get home in another
week. Somehow I suspect it
will be longer-it's hard to be
lieve that a tax program which
hadn't, as of -30 minutes ago
when I left the hearing, been
agreed upon by the House
Taxation Committee, can go
through both Houses in one
week, but I'll be happy if the
forecasters are right.
