    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.

Cos! of Contract
Misrepresented,
Senator Charges
Washington -(UPli- A Demo
cratic senator said today that
George M. 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.
Far West To Gain 10 Seats
MISSING GIRLS FOUND Flashing smiles that portray the
happy ending, Rita Ohlgren, left, and Teresa Morley pose .for

On Heavy Trading
New York -I0PD- Stocks fin
ished sharply higher today.
Prices see-sawed through
most of the early hours but
took a decisive step forward
around noon and continued to
rise in heavy trading.
Electronics, steels, chemi
cals, autos, finance shares, and
nils were all strong.
IBM broke through 4rt0 on
a jump of IB to 40R:,-i.
Alexandria. 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.
Area Combed
All Sunday night police and
firemen, aided by hundreds of
neighbors and other volun
teers, combed through the
wooded area surrounding the
garden -type apartments In
which the girls lived.
Searchers passed through an
unoccupied apartment build
ing adjoining Teresa's but
found nothing.

Two FBI agents, part of a

There was a vacant apart

Two small girls were on

Sacramento. 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.
