Hawaiian Lava Threatens Homes Pahoa, Hawaii -IUPD- A 500 foot wide wal lof lava pushed slowly through the Kapoho Beach area today, threatening to destroy the remaining 40 homes in the $1 million tract. The smoking stream of mol ten rock already has destroyed 10 houses in the 80-acre proj ect and a total of 64 since the original eruption near Kapoho Jan. 13. The Coast Guard lighthouse at Kumukahi Point and the Nakamura store in Kapoho Village still were intact as lava stopped within a few feet of the buildings. In Honolulu. 200 miles to the northwest, the usually bright blue skies were blotted out by volcanic "smog."

IT PAYS TO DRIVE TO 0umrisY CHWDSOILETr 9th Street South Central thru Bartlett Article on Sno-Caf In Phone Magazine An article on Tucker Sno Cats, which are made in Med ford, appears in this month's issue of the Pacific Telephone Northwest magazine. Sno-Cats, which are used on every continent in the world except Africa and are used ex tensively in the Antarctic, the article notes, were invented by Emmitt Tucker Sr., in 1920 and are made in his plant at 2872 South Pacific highway, Medford. The magazine points out that Sir Vivian Fuchs used a Sno-Cat on his successful trans-Antarctic expedition in 1958 and that 13 Sno-Cats will be on hand during the winter Olympic games at Squaw Val ley. Eisenhowers Plan Week End at Farm Washington -4UTH- President and Mrs. Eisenhower were to go to their farm at Gettys burg, Pa., today to spend the week end. The First Lady will drive from Washington, but the President planned to fly by helicopter. They plan to return to the White House late Sunday. very Used Wall Street Chatter New York-OIPD-Bank stock holders have been bombarded of late by good news about their investment in bank shares, says Goodbody & Co. "Business has been good for the banks and earnings from operations have reached new highs in many cases," the firm notes. "The outlook for 1960 is for continued prosperity for the commercial banks. Con tinued demand for money has forced interest rates higher and higher as loanable funds have grown scarcer and scarcer." Purcell & Co. says Penn Fruit, one of the fastest grow ing supermarket chains in the East, is a "defensive" situa tion with long-term promise. The company expects to list its common and convertible preferred on the New York Stock Exchange "at an early date." Bache & Co. believes the market has not yet formed any sort of a base from which to launch a successful upward move, nor has any selling climax developed. "Thus, it seems likely that a successful test of last week's low point will have to take plac before a sustained rebound can ma terialize." Oar Or Lot!

In the Days News Br FRANK" JENKINS In a crucial ruling, the judge in the Finch murder trial refuses to admit into evi dence Carol Tregoff's account of -what happened the night of the slaying. Among other things she admitted, at that time, bringing along to the murder scene what the prose cution calls a "do it yourself murder kit," including a knife, cartridges, rope and drugs. The point involved is that she was not informed in ad vance that what she said could be used against her. VyELL, it's an important " point. It involves the fifth of the ten original amendments to the constitu tion of the United States that are generally known as the Bill of Rights. This fifth amendment reads: "No person shall be held to answer for a capital or other infamous crime unless on pre sentment of indictment of a Grand Jury, except in cases arising in the land or naval forces, or in the militia, when in actual service, in time of war or public danger: nor shall any person be subject for the same offense to be twice put in jeopardy of life or limb; NOR SMALL BE COMPELLED IN ANY CRI MINAL CASE TO BE A WIT NESS AGAINST HIMSELF, nor be deprived of life, lib erty or property, without due process of Jaw; nor shall pri vate property be taken for public use without just com pensation." THOSE are fundamental hu man riffTits T rinn't. thinV we want ANY of them taken away from us. Least of all do we want to lose the right not to be COMPELLED to testify against ourselves. None of us, I think, has forgotten the period in the history .of mankind when cruel and heartless tyrants were free to break men's bodies on the wheel or tear them apart on the rack in order to COMPEL them to ad mit by their own testimony that they had done this or that of which they stood ac cused. CO- U Let's all agree that the Tregoff , girl must not be COMPELLED to testify against herself. That she must not be FORCED to incrimi nate herself. That would be going back to the Middle Ages. But Let's not forget that a cruel and brutal and conscienceless crime has been committed. It is out duty to see to it that whoever committed the crime is convicted and punished. So Let's hope that all this fuss over Miss Tregoff's account of what happened on ihe night of the murder is not per mitted to so becloud the con duct of the trial that the per son guilty of the crime will go free. After all, it is a prime duty of the STATE to see to it that those guilty of crime shall be convicted and punished. Try and Stop Me By BENNETT CERF MAE WEST has -written her autobiography, a poignant document entitled "Goodness Had Nothing To Do With It." Here's how Miss West selected that title: One evening a visitor got an eyeful of Miss West's impressive collection of jewels and exclaimed, "Goodness, what magnificent dia monds!" "Goodness,' replied Miss West tartly, "had nothing to do with, it, dearie."

' ' The Family Council Editor's Note: The Family Council consists of a Judge, a psychiatrist, three clergymen, a newspaper editor, a women's editor and two writers Each article is a summary of an actual rase history. The Council reports on problems that have been dealt wt by responsible agencies and counselors. Janet R. - My husband should tell his mother off. Glen R. - Janet should make allowances. Janet R. My -mother-in-law is a widow with a large fortune. She has been the bane of my life ever since we were married eight years ago. Under the guise of being generous, this woman actual ly walks roughshod over every member of the family. Her other son, his wife and her daughter kowtow to her, hoping she'll come through with some wonderful gifts. She does give, it's true. She has bought securities for our children which should help them with a college edu cation. She has given me jewelry, and last year made the down payment on all new appliances for our home. But she is also nasty, sneering and critical toward me. Nothing is worth such treatment and I want my husband to tell her off. Glen R. Mother does have a way about her that gets people's goats. She always was that way, even when we were little kids and she didn't have that kind of money. But I think her generosity is sincere. It isn't just that she wants to lord it over everyone as Janet thinks. She wants us all to be well off and enjoy whatever benefits she can give us. I know Jan thinks I'm a "Mamma's boy" because I don't defend her when she is being hurt by my mother. It always seems so petty to me after Jan tells me about it. Mother just wouldn't under stand if I complained to her. She'd say she just spoke to Jan in her ordinary way. I figure Mom's getting old and Jan should make allowances. The Council: It's a sad fact we tend to see our own weak nesses and vices in others and are blind to them in our selves. Janet blames her mother-in-law for standing on her ma terial possessions to exact a form of emotional payment from her children. Yet Janet's own desire for those posses sions appear to be strong enough to keep her in terror of her mother-in-law. If Mrs. R. were poor Janet would not take her sneering and criti cism. We don't think Janet should take insults from her mother-in-law, and we don't think she should needle her hus band to "tell off" his own mother. It is very likely that Janet has developed a highly sensitive ego in relation to her mother-in-law and gets herself hurt when no slight was intended. She should, therefore, try to see each situ ation rationally. It she feels she has been treated badly she should tell her mother-in-law in a respectful manner exactly what it is that has hurt her. Janet's own attitude is really what is hurting her most. When she cringes and cowers because she respects money as the one real power she shows that she thinks she is worth little or nothing in herself. Unfortunately, her mother-in-law seems to be the New Military Construction Asked Washington - (UPD - The De fense Department has asked Congress to authorize $1,034, 161,000 worth of new military construction during fiscal 1961. The figure was substanti ally below the $1,356,290,000 authorization passed last year. The new money would be used for projects begun dur ing the 12 months beginning July 1. same type of person. Perhaps there is more excuse for the older woman. Widowed and alone, her children off on their own, she finds it hard to discover new sources of power and satisfaction in life. Janet should start now to try to change her attitudes and find self-esteem. She should stand on what she is or does - not what she has or can get. (Copyright 1960, General Features Corp.)
