Chatter
. New York - (UPD - The real
trouble with the market has
been that stocks recently have
been "high" in relation to
bonds, earnings and dividends
- that prices have been expect
ing too much too soon, says
Lucein O. Hooper of W. E.
Hutton & Co.
In other words, Hooper
notes, the level of stock
prices, rather than any major
change in the business out
look, should be cited to. ex
plain what has happened
since Jan. 4.
He adds, however, that the
difficulty with such an ex
planation, of course, is that
the overvaluation has been
most uneven.
'..Standard & Poor's Corp.
says Union Electric affords a
generous 5 per cent return
and is a sound medium for
conservative investment purposes.
; Associates Investment Co.
is the third largest inde
pendent auto finance com
pany and its stock is attractive
primarily for its good return
and moderate long - term
growth, notes Reynolds & Co.

Carole, 23, figured strongly
in the 42-year-old doctor's
seventh and final day on the
stand. He said he was perhaps
as concerned with her fate as
his own. A high point came
when he fixed his sincere
blue eyes on the state's chief
prosecutor and said:
The Whole Truth
"Mr. Wichello,. the only
armament I have is to tell the
whole truth. God willing, I
will be free if I do tell the
truth."
Deputy District Attorney
Fred N. Wichello had just cast
aside the gentle manner
which characterized his cross
examination, and confronted
the surgeon with a secret tape
recording he claimed showed
Finch had invented a tearful
death scene with his wife.
The trial was recessed for
Lincoln's birthday until Mon
day. Grant B. Cooper, Finch's
attorney,, said he would have
only about three more wit
nesses to call when the trial
resumes.
Then it will be Miss Tre
goff s turn. Her attorneys so
far have declined to say
whether she will testify in her
own behalf. . .
Finch's calm assertion that
truth was his only weapon
against conviction ana pos
sible death in the gas cham
ber ended seven gruelling
days on the witness stand for
him.
Maintains His Innocence
He appeared as unruffled,
serene and self-possessed as
the day he began telling
about his varied love life
which led to the death of
his wife, Barbara Jean Finch.
Despite glaring contradic
tions between his testimony
and statements he made to po
lice after his arrest concern
ing his wife's death, Finch
maintained his complete in
nocence not self defense or
any degree of responsibility
in his wife's death.
She was shot accidently as
he struggled with her on the
lawn of their West Covina
home, he claimed. The gun
went off accidentally as he
tried to throw it away.
That was the substance of
Finch's testimony which came
to a breath-taking climax
Thursday.

Garden, Calif. -flJPD- Today
for the first time in 18 years
Irene Robbins woke up with
out fear.
She stepped into a bright
new world with a clear con
science, a happy, loving fam
ily and with but one life to
live.
"It is wonderful," she said.
"Bright and fresh and clean."
She is no longer a fugitive
from justice.-She needn't wor
ry any more about being torn
from her children and sent
to prison. She no longer lives
with a secret.
She's Emancipated
Mrs. Robbins, 41, feceived
a full pardon Thursday from
Gov. William Stratton of Illi
nois for a larceny conviction
and for leaving the state il
legally with her new husband,
Franklin, 18 years ago.
She thinks it is symbolic
that her emancipation from
fear and guilt should have
its first full day on Lincoln's
birthday.
"Lincoln freed the slaves,"
she told United Press Interna
tional. "I was a slave to my
own conscience. If I had to do
it again, I wouldn't. The men
tal agony and torture you put
yourself to is a horrible thing.
v Just as Mrs. Robbin's ex
posure as a parole violator
last week found her family
and friends united in her be
half, so did the news of her
pardon.
Finally-A Telegram
She first learned of Strat
ton's action when told by
UPI. She called her husband.
As he had done when he first
learned she was in trouble, he
hurried home.
Later, a telegram arrived.
They read it and re-read it
and showed it to their four
children when they came
home from school. Friends
who had heard the news
stopped by to visit, and also
read the telegram.
An "ice cream and cake"
celebration for the family was
put off until late in the even

lowed to stay up extra-late
