INC. 1 1 1 St. Helena, Nape county, California Salem-ttlPH-It was a June morning 60 years ago when train robber Harry Tracy broke out of the Oregon peni tentiary here, leaving a 59-day trail of terror and death in the Northwest that finally ended near Spokane, Wash. Seven men were killed dur ing his two months of free dom. The June 9, 1902. escape resulted in one of the North west's biggest manhunts. The escape began when Tracy, a sullen prisoner, broke out a 30-30 rifle se cieted in the prison's slove factory and fatally shot guard Frank B. Ferrel. Another guard, S. R. T. Jones, was killed as Tracy and a companion, David Mei rill, his brother-in-law, scaled a prison wall with a ladder. A third guard used as a hos tage, B. F. Tiffany, was slain outside the prison walls, and the inmates vanished into some brush, i a .

Tying up the farmer, Henry Tirde, ihey ate breakfast, and read an ac count of their escape in a newspaper. Tiede later told authorities that Tracy was furious be cause Merrill was getting as much notoriety as Tracy. Later, near Chehalis, Mer rill's body was found. Tracy bragced that he and Merrill fouRht a duel, and Merrill lost. Near Olympia on July 4 Tracy commandeered a bont at the Capitol City Oyster Co. dock, making the crew take him into the Seattle area. The hunt wore on, and Tracy fa tally shot another pursuer, Deputy Sheriff Charles Ray mond, near Bothell. Tracy broke into a Seattle home two nights later, and while the woman of the house was fixing his supper at gun point, a sheriffs posse storm cd in. Tracy escaped again, but not before two deputies were killed in the fray-E. E. Brccse, and Neil Rawley, the latter hit by a wild shot fired by another officer. Stopped Near Spokane Tracy wandered through rural parts of King and Pierce counties, finally heading east to the Creston area. 40 miles west of Spokane, where he was spotted. This time Tracy became trapped in a grain field, be hind a pile of rocks. A big posse surrounded him. and while he stood them off, he was wounded in the leg. That night, while waiting him nut, the posse heard a shot. The next morning Tracy was found dead, shot in the face with his own gun.. His vow when he escaped was that he would never again be put hrhinri bars. SUGAR CURED BACON SQUARES AGED STEER tilt SIRLOIN STEAKS Divers To Join Search for Vessel Tallamook.

' Four of the six new nations expected in the assembly by s liiil me ican. riisi 01 i lit new members are expected to . be Ruanda and Burundi, j which attained independence after years as one trust terri tory. British-administered Ugan da, to the north, has been promised independence on Oct. 9. Algeria voted recently, and upheld a foregone conclusion thai it would choose inde pendence from France. Admission of these new comers will raise the African membership to 2H. Jamaica and Trinidad, also British-governed, are to be come free in August. They are expected to join - but not necessarily vole with - the Commonwealth. Some delegations expect a Soviet veto of Ruanda or Burundi if Belgian troops are still there when the security council meets in early Sep tember to consider new mem bers. However, most delegates believe that all four new African countries will be ap proved by both the security council and the general as sembly for membership. i he Afro-Asians are a multi- shaded political group. They range from military allies of the West - such as the Philip pines, Japan and Pakistan -to Communist Mongolia. The "neutralists" in between vary irom moderate to anti-West. They try to settle their dif ferences behind closed doors- usually by arriving at a "con sensus after prolonged and often healed discussion - then i present their views in the ; form of a draft resolution1 with massive sponsorship. The differences of opinion within the group is often gauged by how long it takes them to re port a verdict. They try to maintain a solid front against the rest of the United Nations in the com mittee and general assembly debates that follow, but not always successfully. Belgian Foreign Ministe Paul-Henri Spaak said '.he final outcome - which loft the door open for Belgian troops to slay on In Ruanda or Bur undi if invited by the new governments - was a "fair compromise.' One example of successful collaboration was the South ern Rhodesian issue. They quickly drafted a demand that Britain scrap a I!)61 conslitu- tion for the colony and draw up another giving a stronger voice to the more than !0 per cent Alrican inhaDi-ants. this measure, with .18 co- sponsors, was rammed through the general assembly in one day with only South Africa voting against it. Seventy- three were in favor mostly the Afro-Asians plus the Com- munisls while Britain's friends were among the 27 abstentions. Portugal joined Britain, which claimed the U.N. intervention was illegal, in refusing to lake part in the balloting. The Western nations - who pay mosl of the United Na tions operating expenses are plainly dissatisfied with the voting strength aligned against them. There have been suggestions that mem bers' votes he weighed acrord- 1 ing to populalion or c.'ir.tri- ,bulions. which are based t roughly on national wealth. . or a combination of these ' factors. ; However, this would quirp a revision of the U.N ! Charter The Afro - Asians 1 have the votes to dffi-at any move to weaken their powr ' and the Soviet Union has veto to kill any compromise that might benefit the Wes' So the outlook for the 17th General Assembly is a higher land stronger Afro Asian bloc these loans have small fixed charges.
