Tragedy Becomes Political Football in Chile; President Displeased
Parliament Slow
In Reacting To
Money Demands
By ALBERTO J. SCHAZIN
Santiago, Chile - ttlPD r
Tragedy has become a polit
ical football in Chile and the
nation's president, Jorge Ale-
sahdri, is showing evident
signs of growing anger at the
trading on human misery.
The slowness with which
the Parlinment is reacting to
Insistent government demands
tot funds to cope v, ith the
aftermath of May's disastrous
chain of earthquakes, and the
manner In which the emer
gency requests are being
trimmed has Upset President
Alfssandri.

that its political opposition
and supporting forces are
seeking wilfully to weaken
the official drive against the
Inflation feared as an after
math to the Chilean tragedy
, Alessandrl two months ago
asked Congress for an esti
mated $275 million dollars to
be spread over a five-year
period in a government drive
to attain a sane and stable
economy. However, the House
cut his aid request to $150
million and the Senate slash
cd that to $88 million.
Alessandrl fumes in private.
Some of his other government
officials arc not so discreet.
Finance Minister Roberto
Vergana lost his cabinet job
last weekend because of his
bitterness towards parliamen
tarians blocking government
demands for more and higher
taxes to meet the earthquake
and relief rehabilitation bill.

both chambers of adding
boon-doggling projects to the
original administration mea
sure in the form of expendi
tures not contemplated by the
government project.
Vcrgara, Alessandrrs ngni
hand man on economic mat
ters, was principal target of
the cabinet reform because of
what his opponents termed
his "Inflexibility" in the dis
cussion of anti-Inflationary
and currency stabilization
measures.

tral Bank president, described
as a conservative and a man
of high national prestige.
Before leaving the cabinet
Vergara warned flatly the
president would veto any in
adequate relief measure
which would threaten infla
tion. Such a measure, "would
be more serious to Chile than
May's earthquakes," he said.
Has Stock Reply
To the hundreds of delega
tions swarming Into Santiago
seeking relief aid, economy
under-sccretary Luis Marty
has a stock reply: "The Con
gress as of now has not ap
proved the drafted law and
we have no funds."
Chile knows where it wants
to go in rehabilitation but the
huge amounts required to put
the machinery in motion are
acking.
More serious yet, however,
is the fact that Chile s search
abroad for a half-billion dol
lars in relief credits also has
halted abruptly. Chile must
first put its economic house
in order before seeking aid
abroad.
The government describes
its political opposition in the
Congress as including Com
munists, Socialists and Chris
tian Democrats.

Back Stairs: Expenditure for Clothes
By WILLIAM J. EATON
Washington IUPII - Back
Stairs at the White House:
The up-roar over which
presidential candidate's wife
spends more (or less) on
clothes underscores the rela
tively non-controverfial ward
robe of Mrs. Mamie Eisen
hower. The First Lady, in contrast
to Mrs. John F. Kennedy,
buys strictly American de
signs so far as dresses are
concerned. She often shops by
reading the Sunday papers
and calling the store the next
morning if something appeals
to her.
Those who know Mrs. Eisen
hower say she sometimes buys
a frock for under $10. Her
propensity for buying cos
tume jewelry in five-and-dime
stores is well known.
Of course, the First Lady
has some very expensive
gowns. She has heavy social
obligations as hostess to vis
iting royalty and heads-of
state. Next Tuesday, for ex
ample, she will entertain at
a state dinner for the Crown
Prince Akihito and Princess
Michiko of Japan.
The First Lady likes hats,
bright colors and dark stock
ings. ' No one at the White
House, however, cared to in
ject Mrs. Eisenhower into a
political quarrel by estimat
ing how much she spends a
year on clothes.
James C. Hagcrty, an avid
New York Yankee rooter, is
enjoying the last laugh on re
porters who chided him when
the Yankees were far lower
in the American League
standings than they are to
day. The President's press
secretary went to New York
last week end to cheer his
team to victory in a crucial
series with the Baltimore Ori
oles. With this extra bit of
White House backing, the
Yankees won four straight.
Dewey Long, the White
House transportation chief,
has a new interest - raising
African violets. He carried
one of his plants through the
White House lobby the other
day - mystifying visitors. It
was just a leaf in a water
goblet, growing through a
cardboard cover. j
Portlandefs Body
Taken From Willamette
Portland-flJPD-The body of
a 21-year-old Portland man
was recovered from the Wil

noon. " '
He was identified as Frank
Thomas Pratt.. The coroner's
office said the body had been
in the water about a week.
Death was apparently due to
drowning.

Courts Making
Headway With
Backlog of Cases
Gearhart, Ore. IUPII - The
Supreme Court and Circuit
Courts are making excellent
progress in disposing of the
backlog of cases in Oregon,
Chief Justice William M. Mc
Allister of the Oregon Su
preme Court told the Oregon
State Bar Thursday.
He said dockets were being I
brought to a "current posi-j
tion. The improved status, he
said, has been brought about
despite the fact that there
were 877 more cases filed in
Circuit Court in I960 than in
1959. In the Supreme Court
there were 222 cases ready
for argument on Jan. 1, 1959,
and this 'number has been re
duced to 81, he said.
Six Months Time Seen
McAllister said the Ameri
can Bar Association has said
that Circuit Courts which are
functioning properly should
be able to dispose of the aver
age civil case about six
months after filing.
He added that the 31 coun'
ties in Oregon in which law
section quarter of 1960, the
age of the median cases in
13 of the counties was six
months or less, in the next
13 counties the median age
did not exceed five months
and in only five counties was
the median age more than 12
months.
Charles S. Rhyne, past
president of the American
Bar Association, said this
country's reservations on
world court jurisdiction must
be repealed "if we are to ef
fectively lead the world to
ward the rule of law among
nations.
Multnomah Coroner
Decision Awaited
Portland - IUPD - A decision
is expected next week on
whether the name of Dr
Ernest J. Loslt will be allow
ed on the November ballot
as Republican candidate for
Multnomah County coroner.
Three circuit Judges will sit
"en banc" Monday morning
to hear the case.
Dr. Dos 1 1 was selected as
the Republican nominee for
the position at' an Aug. 23
nominating convention. He
was named after a mixup in
nominations for the post and
insurance man Hugh Laccy
was declared ineligible for the
Republican nomination. La-
cey apparently had won the
Republican nomination in the
May 20 primary by virtue of
a write-in vote.
A suit questioning Losli's
candidacy was filed Sept. 8
by attorney Thomas Mahoney
in behalf of the Democratic
coroner candidate, Dr. Earl
Smith. The suit questions va
lidity of the nominating convention.
