"Before Orcgonians cast their ballots in this election, my opponent should explain what she has done to cause such personal bitterness to ward her on the part of top members of the dregon con gressional delegation of her own party," he said. Smith said Sen. Wayne Morse, (D-Ore.), "has made several campaign talks in Oregon endorsing the entire Democratic slate but any per sonal mention of my oppon ent was conspicuously miss ing from his press releases."

Former West Palm Beach, Fla., City Judge Joseph A. Peel Jr., 36, was arrested 40 minutes after he checked into the Patton hotel here after a flight from Charlotte, N.C.

Kirk aided in the arrest and planned to return Peel to Florida to face trial. The Chillingsworth disap pearance has been the most baffling case 'in the annals of Florida crime. The judge, 58, and his wife, Marjorie, 57, left a dinner par ty about 9:30 p.m. the night of June 14, 1955, and return ed to their swank beach front home at Manalapan about 11 miles south of Palm Beach They apparently each drank a glass of orange juice and went to bed. When the judge failed to appear for a 10 a.m. hearing the following morning, offi cers went to his home and found an outdoor spotlight broken and drops of blood on the boardwalk leading to the beach. Nothing in the house had been disturbed. There were no other clues. Last month Palm Beach po lice said undercover agents had made a tape recording of a confession which they at tributed to Holzapfel, a man with a' 15-year criminal rec ord. They said the voice on the recording told of being hired to kill the judge but that the killing of his wife had not been planned. , The recorded voice told of putting the judge and his wife in 'a small boat, taking them several miles out to sea weighting them with chain and then shoving them over board. - c v vn. si lr --i 4 Promptly Filled.
