Mysterious Disappearance of Brewef Adolph Coors Believed Solved
' ' I. II M - ' ' ' ..I I ..I . . .1 I
Clothing, Parts
Of Human Bones
Found by Hiker
Denver (UPD The fate of
millionaire brewer Adolph
Poors III. who disappeared
feven months ago, was all but
technically certain today. He
was slain, and his body abun
rloned tinburlcd on a remote
mountain Dath.
The FBI announced Wed
nesday that clothing which
Coors wore Feb. 0, the day he
disappeared, had been lound
by a mountain hiker, about
20 miles south of the Coors
ranch and 35 miles south of
Denver.
Scattered in the vicinity
officers found human bones
which proved to be the skelc
till remains of a man approx
matcly Coors build.
' Denver truck driver Ed
ward Green, 30, found the
clothes Sunday while hiking
through isolated mounluin tcr
rain and pot-shooting with
pistol. Coors' wife identified
the weathered, tattered
clothes, and an initialed pock
et knife found in a trouscr
pocket.
Fugitive Sought
The FBI is seeking a fugi
tlve murderer, 31 -year -old
Joseph Corbett Jr., who by
circumstunces has been linked
to the Coors case. Corbett
lived quietly In Denver, under
the alias Walter Osborne, for
four years after his escape
from California Chino State
Prison.
The day after Coors was
waylaid on a road near his
ranch, Corbett checked out of
his Denver apartment.
Corbett, orglnally from
Seattle, has been on the FBI's
' m o s t wanted list since
March 30, but has eluded cap
ture. Corbett bought a yellow car
in Denver a few weeks before
Coors disappeared. Such a car
was seen parked near the
Coors ranch the day before
wealthy, 44 - year - old "Ad"
Coors met with foul play.
There was no suspicion that
"Walter Osborne" was Cor
bett, or that he could be In
volved In the Coors case, until
In mid-February the yellow
car was found abandoned, and
destroyed by fire, near AUnn
tic City, N.J.
Fall Pretext
. A routine chcckback on the
car's registration, and an ex
haustive search of driving
license photograph files in
Denver, produced a picture of
"Waller Osborne." His
friends, employer and land
lord provided t h e details
which convinced the FBI he
was the fugitive Corbett - and
revealed the suspicious timing
of his departure from Denver,
on the false pretext that he
intended to enroll at Colorado
University.
The FBI describes Corbett
as aloof, Intelligent, and
usually calm but inclined to
the dangerous delusion that
he is omnipotent. He owned
several rifles In Denver and
is fond of target shooting. He
seldom drinks, and maintains
extremely fastidious personal
habits.

Unconfirmed Soviet
Space Success Puts
Skids Under Market
New York-lllPII-Russia's un
confirmed success in putting
a man into space had the
stock market on the run to
day.
Prices went tumbling along
broad front, with steels,
some chemicals, the autos,
coppers and specials were
thrown for losses ranging to
2 points or more.
Although the Soviet space
feat was yet to be confirmed,
traders apparently are using
it as an excuse to lighten
their positions, some brokers
feel. The reasoning is that the
Soviet UN delegation will
exploit the advantage to the
fullest when Khrushchev ar
rives here on Monday.

St. Louis, Mo. OTK Vice
President Richard M. Nixon
told union members today he
never will Join Sen. John F
Kennedy in promising to be
"100 per cent for every
thing labor, business or farm
leaders want.
Nixon told delegates to the
International Association of
Machinists' convention they
should "look at the record
of the Eisenhower Adminis
tration before picking
president.
The delegates apparently
are pro-Kennedy.
Nixon said the administra
tion record includes more
schools, hospitals and "real
income than produced under
the Truman administration
Galleries Pro-Nixon
Nixon's blunt speech, com
ing just a day after Kennedy
addressed the 1,500 IAM dele
gates, brought a bi-level re
action. The galleries, obvious
ly crowded with pro-Nixon
spectators, cheered and ap
plauded Nixon's challenging
statements.
Nixon quoted Kennedy as
having said in Detroit, "What
the American labor move
ment wants for America is
what I want for America and
what the American labor
movement opposes I oppose.
Nixon said that "If I were
solely concerned about votes,
I'd tell you that."
"I don't tell you that be
cause it wouldn't be good for
the labor movement for a
president of the United
States to make that kind of
a statement to a labor orga
nization."
Campaign Quotes
BY UNITED PRESS INTERNATIONAL
Sen. John F. Kennedy: (In New York Citv before a Liheral
Party dinner): "Only liberalism ... can repair our national
power, restore our national purpose, and liberate our national
energies. Only liberalism can solve the bitter problems this
nation laces as we enter the turbulent 60s.
They (Republicans) "would like the people to believe
that In a time of danger it would be hazardous to change
party administrations. I think it would be hazard not to
change. I think it would be hazardous to continue four more
year of stagnation at home an aboard . . ."
Vice President Richard M. Nixon:
(At Grand Forks, N.D.): "We must never forget there
is no greater asset In the struggle with the forces of slavery
than the tremendous productivity of America's farmers.
"Khrushchev knows this he told me so.
"We must see that the farmers get what they do not re
ceive today a fair share of what they produce. The whole
thing in a nutshell Is we've got to quit thinking of the
farm surplus problem In a negative way , , . we've got to
quit thinking in a timid way."

Mrs. Neuberger Urges Speedup in Medical
Research: Smith Favors Bridge at Astoria
By United Press International
Mrs. Maurine Neuber g e r
spoke out today for a speedup
In medical research while her
Republican rival for the Sen

system.
Mrs. Neuberger told a Lew
is and Clark college alumni
meeting in Portland that Con
gress should take action soon
on:
, . . Increased funds for re
search activities of the Na
tional Institute of Health to
carry out on contract research
projects in cancer, heart, arth
ritis, neurology and other di
seases. . . . Expansion of medical
education facilities and fi
nancial help to deserving and
needy medical' and science
students.
More Money Needed
"Despite a vast increase In
appropriations . . . luring the
last five years, nationally
known medical researchers
report that additional funds
could be profitably utilized in
investigating promising leads
into the cause and cure of
killing and crippling di
seases," Mrs. Neuberger said.
She said she hoped Con
gress would give active con
sideration next year to a pro
posal to authorize a 10-year

for construction ef medical,
dental and public health edu
cational facilities.
Smith, campaigning on the
coast Wednesday, told a lunch
eon at Astoria that Highway
101 should be part of the na
tional highway defense sys
tem and that there should be
a federal appropriation for a
bridge across the Columbia
river at Astoria.
He said the twin develop
ments would mean millions
of dollars of added income
for the construction industry
in Oregon and add to the
tourist income.
"The vulnerability of the
Oregon coast makes it logical
for U.S. 101 to be a part of
the defense highway system,"
he said.
Speaks in Seaside
Smith said in Seaside Wed
nesday night he has found
that voters are "keenly inter
ested in the Republican pro
gram for peace and strong
national defense" and in the
GOP record for financial re
sponsibility in government.
