Benefits Denied
Tvo cl Hearings
Salem - KM xiie State
Employment Department has
denied unemployment bene
fits to a sawmill worker who
took a trip East thinking he
had been fired.

board said the man had been
. ill for a week, returned, found
his time card gone, assumed
he had been fired and took
the trip. The board said he
should have consulted his em
ployer; as it turned out, he
had not been fired.
In another case, benefits
were denied a lumber worker
who quit because his foreman
would not recommend him
for a better job. The board
said he had not shown a good
cause for quitting.

Today at 21; she Is heiress
to an estate estimated at from
SI million to nearly $4 mil

ter mother who came to love
Joannah as her own child.
The girl whose full name is

curiosity-seekers who des

Gets Estate, Servants
A senior at Sarah Lawrence
College in Bronxville, N. Y.,
Joannah received the bequest
from Mrs. Arthur Whitney of
Menanam Township. Mrs.
Whitney, who died in Febru
ary at the age of 82, left
Joannah a 115-acre estate,
called Pleasant Valley Mills.
A 20-room mansion, four cot

Frederick F r elinghuysen

cy fund in addition to the
other bequests, if her income
is not sufficient to meet her
needs.
As for the estate, "the
amount she will get the in
come from, would be much
nearer one million than four
million after taxes and ex
penses," Frelinghuysen said.

Russia Asked To
Agree on Weapons
Geneva - UPD - Thi West
has called on the Soviet
Union to agree to an early cut
off of nuclear weapons pro
duction under international
control and to start converting
existing nuclear warheads for
peaceiui uses.
Chief American delegate
Frederick Eaton termed "Ir
responsible" the Soviet counter-proposal
that the nuclear
powers merely pledge "never
to be the first to use the
atomic bomb."
The 10-national committee
met for 2V4 hours In the last
session before the Easter re
cess. It was the 23rd session
since the talks began March
15.
Relatives had estimated the
estate at $4 million.
Frelinghuysen said the
money will be held in trust
until Joannah is 25. Until
then, she will get what the
money earns through invest
ment. He estimated her an
nual income from the estate
would be $40,000 to $50,000.
The estate includes jewels and
stocks.
Mrs. Whitney, the former
Florence Dillon Wyckoff, was
heiress to a railroad fortune.
Her late husband was a stock
broker, former state senator
and Republican candidate for
governor in 1925.

back replies conveying their
sentiments on the park idea.
"It seems apparent that
two-thirds have no strong
feelings about the park either
pro or con," Porter observed.
Of the one third who did
reply, 85 said they opposed
the seashore idea and 47 said
they favored it, although 11
had some reservations which
would have to be met to win
their approval.
'Vociferous Minority"
The Western Lane Taxpay
ers Association, which has
been a vocal opposition group
located at Florence, amounts
to a "vociferous minority,"
the Oregon congressman con
cluded. "I found in going over the
questionnaires that many who
opposed the park listed what
they felt were needed
changes in the bill, such as
'ample money appropriated
to purchase all private prop
erty required for the area
and a new formula for life
tenure.' I welcomed these
ideas," Porter said.
"Many opposing the park
as now proposed said they
would withdraw their opposi
tion if the park boundaries
would include only the sand
dunes west of Highway 101,
excluding homesites and farm
lands as now proposed," he
noted.
"The primary objection to
the park as proposed seems
to center around the feeling
of some property owners that
they would not receive fair
consideration," said Porter. "I
don't think this will prove to
be so. I think we can enact
a piece of park legislation
which will be generally ac
ceptable and advantageous

A perusal of the returned
questionnaires revealed a
number of residents said they
would be willing for the park
to be established if the price
is right. On the other hand,
those dead set against it
minced no words.
A "preposterous, Idiotic
idea," said Gardiner resi
dent. "You have had your say
for awhile, but at the next
election we can have ours,"
said a Westlake property
owner to his congressman.
A Florence man said his
comments could only be
"written on asbestos." But
another property owner of
that city said: "In my opinion
the majority of the loud pro
tests seem to come from peo
ple who I know to be con
sidered crackpots. There are
many people who are in favor
of the park, I am sure, but
they would hesitate to pub
licly say so. I want you to
know I think it is a wonder
ful thing and I commend
your stand on it in the face
of criticism.
Wants Fair Price
A couple in their fifties
living at Florence who bought
their property last year re
plied: As long as we would
get a fair price for our land
and could live out our lives
on it, I see no reason why the
park shouldn t go in.
A Gardiner man who said
he lived there for 50 years
and owned more land in the
proposed park area than any
other individual said he fa
vored the national seashore
because "I realize the value
it would be to this commu
