Humphrey Family 'Windfall' Claimed To Be $2.6 Million Disarmament Aired Again Geneva -UPD- The United States and Russia turned their attention back to conventional weapon! disarmament today but left the door open for possible direct negotiations on breaking the nuclear dead lock. American sources said U.S. Ambassador Arthur H. Dean planned to stress the question of nuclear delivery vehicles in an address to the 17-nation disarmament conference. Dean met for two hours Tuesday with Soviet First Deputy Foreign Minister Vas ily Kuznetsov. They discussed the feasibility of U.S.-Sovlet talks on a nuclear test ban treaty based on a compromise plan put forth by the eight unaligned conference partici pants. Afterwards Dean said the proposal for direct bilateral talks, made by India and the United Arab Republic Mon day, may come up later in full conference session. He said "we may want to hear the views of other nations first." In Washington it was re ported that the United States is willing to consider an un polled ban on atmospheric, space and underwater tests. Regarding nuclear delivery vehicles, Russia has proposed a 100 per cent cut in these during Ihe first phase of dis armament while the U. S. plan calls for only a 35 per cent reduction. The United States believes a 100 per cent cut would leave the Soviets in a position of military superiority In Europe at the end of the first phase, especially when coupled with Soviet demands for the dis mantling of all foreign mili tary bases during that period.

Humphrey and his family reaped windfalls of $2.6 million at taxpayer ex pense, partly because Humph rey's mining company "delib erately misrepresented" the cost of executing a govern ment stockpile contract. The charge was made by Sen. Clair Engle of California. He said Senate stockpile in vestigators intend to find out "jusl who is telling the truth" about a nickel mining-smelting contract between the gov ernment and Humphrey's min ing company. Humphrey was secretary of treasury in the Eisenhower ad ministration. Somebody Lied Engle, a member of the stockpile subcommittee, said either Humphrey or Walter H. Henson, an accountant for the General Accounting Office, lied to the group. Engle laid down a 12-point barrage against the multimil lionaire Cleveland industrial ist, which Included the follow ing accusations: -The Hanna Mining Com pany, according to its own in come tax returns, earned S10 million after taxes in seven years on an investment of $3.6 million. -The government spent $22.3 million to build a smelt er which the Hanna Smelting cn. was permitted to buy for $1.7 million. - Humphrey and his immedi ate family held a 14 per cent interest in the mining and smelting companies. Engle said their share of $29.2 mil lion mining profits, plus "windfalls" on the smelter amounted to $4 million after taxes. GoTernment Took Risk - Hanna forced the govern ment to take all the financial risk on the nickel contract, set up an intricate corporate structure to allow depletion write-offs on all profits and charged Ihe government $1 million in "unauthorized" expenses.

Va. -HIPI)- "Just to see her smile was worth a million dollars . . ." The words summed up the reaction of Marine Maj. Ar thur Ohlgren to the end of a tale that had the best of all possible endings. His daughter Rita and her playmate, Teresa Morley, had been found, safe and unharmed, after being missing for nearly two days. Police had feared the two 7-year-olds had been kidnaped or slain. Their mothers had become so ill with worry that doctors had to place them un der sedation. The two days of agony be gan Sunday evening. The girls, like thousands upon thousands of other little girls, played in the apparent secur ity and safety of their subur ban development. That was the last seen of them until Tuesday afternoon.

Calif .-OIPD-The fast-growing Far West, main ly California, gains 10 seats in the House of Representa tives this year and political experts predict most of them will go to the Democrats in the November elections. UPI correspondents in 13 western state talked to gov ernors, chairmen of both par ties and to many of the candi dates to assess the political outlook in the area. The con sensus: Prospects are good for Democratic gains, mainly be cause of a reapportionment by a Democratic legislature in California. President Kennedy, who visited California last week, clearly has high hopes in the West. In a recent news con ference, he expressed belief that the outlook for his leg islative program would im prove if the Democrats would gain between S and 10 House seats in November. "There is not a measure be fore us that I don't think we could pass with a change of five seats," he said. The survey of western states showed that almost all Democratic candidates are supporters of the President. GOP leaders such as Na tional Chairman William E. Miller predict the Republi cans will win the 44 seats they need to control the House. The consensus of political professionals in the West is that the Republicans will have to turn to other localities to score major increases. The present lineup in the House is 262 Democrats, 174 Republicans and one vacancy. The survey of western poli ticians showed the Democrats had a good chance of winning 8 of the 10 new seats in the West, while Republicans were favored for the other two. California, soon to become the first state in the nation in population, is the key state for both parties in the con gressional fight. Political leaders in Cali fornia said they feel the gu bernatorial contest between Republican Richard M. Nixon and Democratic incumbent Edmund G. Brown will have little influence in the 38 con gressional races. The Brown Nixon contest is rated so close it is not expected to be a factor. At the present time, the 13 western states have 39 con gressmen, 30 of them repre senting California w h t r e Democrats presently have a 16-14 edge. As a result of population surges during the past decade, the western states will have 69 representatives in the House next January, 38 of them coming from California. In ,1891 a tariff law was passed in the United States requiring imports to show the country of origin.
