Stocks Move Up on
Irregular Advance
New York (UPD Stocks
moved up today from their
openlng levels to advance
irregularly.
Small gains predominated
in the list but the advance
was ragged and lacked con
viction. Steel issues firmed for the
most part. Lukens, still aided
by its move to operate during
any recurrence of the steel
strike, jumped nearly Vz.
Youngstown, Republic and
Bethlehem tacked on .frac
tions, while U.S. Steel which
rose at the opening, eased in
subsequent trades.
Gains of a point or more
appeared in some of the re
cently volatile electronics.
General Time, Texas Instru
ments and Litton moved up
more than a point each. IBM
lost around 1.

Five in Family Die
In Auto Smashup
Sprague, Wash. (UPD Five
members of a California fam
ily en route to Spokane were
killed early today when their
station wagon collided with a
pickup truck on icy U.S. high
way 10. '
The dead were identified by
the Washington State Patrol
as John Kowzan, 41, Tahoe
Valley, his wife Laura, about
40, and three of their chil
dren. Another daughter, Laura,
7, was in critical condition at
Deaconess hospital in Spok
ane. Before she was taken to

family was enroute to Spo

who she could not identify
further. Officers were search
ing for the relative.
Bookie Murdered;
Police Say Scene
Was 'Rearranged'
Sherman Oaks, Calif. -(UPD-A
widely known bookie was
shot to death Wednesday
night before ex-convict Mick
ey Cohen and 25 other guests
at a swanky restaurant and
police said the murder scene
was "rearranged" before they
were called.
The victim, convicted ex
tortionist Jack Whalen, alias
Jack O'Hara, 39, was shot
once under the right eye, po
lice said, after he walked into
Rondelli's restaurant and hit
a man in the face.
Slayer Flees
The slayer fired two shots
at Whalen from his seat in
a dining room booth, then
fled. The second shot went
into the ceiling.
"To paraphrase Winston
Churchill, never did so many
people see so little," Police
Chief William. H. Parker said
of the slaying in this San
Fernando Valley district of
Los Angeles.
Parker said there was an
"obvious delay before police
were notified. Perhaps some
of the press were notified
first. We also believe that the
scene of the murder was con
siderably rearranged before
we arrived.
Cohen Six Feet Away
Former mobster Cohen told
police he was sitting at a
table only six feet away from
the shooting but did not rec
ognize the gunman. He said
he never had met Whalen.
"I just ducked when the
shooting started," Cohen said
when questioned at police
headquarters. "I asked some
one behind me if I was bleed
ing, then just stood there. I've
been through too many of
these things to go under a
table."

Sacred Duty To
Assist Working
Class Described
Vienna, Austria - (UPD - So
viet Premier Nikita S. Khru
shchev defended Wednesday
his decision to order Russian
troops and tanks to crush the
1956 Freedom-Fighters revolt
in Hungary. .
In a speech to workers at
the Ganz-Mavag truck plant
in Budapest where he attend
ed the Hungarian Socialist
Workers (Communist) Party
Congress, Khrushchev blamed
the 10-day rebellion on "im
perialists." The "imperialists," he said,
"wanted to split the Commu
nist bloc countries.
Sacred Duly
"We regarded it as our
sacred duty to meet the re
quest of the Hungarian Revo
lutionary Workers and Peas
ants Government, to move our
troops against the counter
revolution and to help the
working class," Khrushchev
said.
"Had we not helped you we
would have been called fools
and' history would not have
forgiven us that foolishness."
Boasts of Supremacy
In an address Tuesday to
the Communist , Party Con
gress, Khrushchev had blam
ed the "fever" generated by
his denunciation of Josef
Stalin and the mistakes of the
Hungarian Red leaders for
sparking the revolt.
Khrushchev also boasted of
the Soviet rocket supremacy.
He said the Communist coun
tries "are not afraid of the
forces of imperialism."
"Our forces are stronger
than the forces ,of imperial
ism. Our armaments are bet
ter .. . our rockets are on the
moon while theirs are in the
water," he said.
Oregon Having Tragic Year in Hunting Fatalities
Great Many More
Parks Necessary
By Century's End
,i Williamsburg, Va. PJPB
Winthrop Rockefeller, board
chairman of Colonial .Wil
liamsburg, predicted today
that before the end of the cen

need 40 times the land now
set aside for national parks
and scenic areas.
Rockefeller told the Nation
al Park Service's bi-annual
conference here that the na
tion must make a concerted
effort to provide space for its
citizens to enjoy their increas
ing leisure time.
More Leisure Time
About 400 Park Service of
ficials, including superinten
dents, regional directors and
rangers, are attending the
meetings here. Williamsburg
is an historic colonial center
restored by a group establish
ed by Rockefeller's father,
John I). Jr.
Rockefeller said that by the
year 2000, twice as many peo
ple will be enjoying 50 per
cent more leisure time on
double their present incomes
and travel budget.
"America will need per
haps four times the number
of city parks and play
grounds, 16 times as many re
gional parks and lakes close
enough to urban areas for a
day's outing, and roughly 40
times the amount of land in
national parks and scenic
areas," he said.
Rockefeller is a brother of
New York Gov. Nelson Rock
efeller. Seaton's 'Directive'
In a message to the conven
tion. Interior Secretary Fred
A. Seaton issued a six-point
"directive" guide future pro
gress of the Park Service's
"Mission 66" program. The
program is a long-range con
servation and development
plan aimed for completion in
1966.
Seaton's recommendations
included a call to develop a
system of new national re
serve areas set up "not ne
cesfcrily for immediate use,
but as a reservoir from which
future generations may draw
for needed parks and recrea
tion areas."
