Air Crash Rejected Washington -lUPIu The Fed eral Aviation agency Thurs day discounted conjecture that ! a maintenance truck might I have contributed to the crash of an Eastern Air Lines plane I in New York Citv last Friday ! night. The theory, raised by a source close to the investiga tion of the accident which killed 25 persons, involved a possibility that a ground ve hicle driving through fog might have wandered across the runway in front of the air- liner just as it was about to land. But an FAA spokesman said a thorough check of all ground vehicle movements at the time of the crash showed there was none near the runway where the plane was trying to land. Attorneys Seek Justification (or Judge's Belief Boise, Idaho - ll'PP - Defense attorneys sought legal justifi cation today for a federal judge's belief the Air Force has waived the right to try Al-C Gerald M. Anderson on murder charges. U.S. District Judge Chase A. Clark late Wednesday took under advisement habeas cor pus proceedings designed to free Anderson from threat of a military court martial. Anderson, 24, San Diego, is accused by the Air Force of premeditated murder in the knife slayings at nearby Mountain Home last April o( Mrs. Nancy Joy Johnson, 22, and her son, Danny, 2. Questioned by agents of the Air Force Office of Special Investigation from April 11 17, Anderson finally "confess ed" killing Mrs. Johnson - a confession he later repudiated on grounds he was coerced into making it. The Air Force turned him over to Idaho civil authorities April 18 for prose cution but last monih another man, Theodore Thomas Dic kie, 21, confessed the slayings and the state court freed An derson. It was then, Nov. 27, that the Air Force charged Ander son with murdering both mother and child. Judge Clark said that "it is my opinion that in doing so (turning Anderson over to civil authorities) they (the Air Force) waived their jurisdic tion." However, he gave de fense counsel 10 days to sub mit written briefs to back up his opinion and the Air Force another 10 days in which to answer. "I will say frankly in the history of law books I have been unable to find a case in point," Judge Clark said. Lincoln, Nebr. -lUPli- Joseph O'Donnell forgot he had let his cat have the car.

COURTESY CHEVROLET 9TH & BARTLETT MEDFORD PHONE 772-6115 Washington -ilTO- President Kennedy's advisors believe the Cuban experience may have left Soviet Premier Khrushchev more willing to consider means of reducing the risk of war by surprise or accident. They also think the Rus sian, shown he cannot deploy nuclear weapons in the West ern Hemisphere, may also be ready to discuss a formal agreement prohibiting t h e proliferation of nuclear weap ons. Soviet statements at the 17 nation disarmament confer ence, in Geneva, Switzerland, will be studied closely for hints supporting or undermin ing these hopes. No New Proposals The United States intends no new proposals in the field of general disarmament as long as the Cuban situation remains unsettled. The conference, in recess for two and a half months while the United Nations gen eral assembly met in New York, is to meet until it be gins a Christmas recess about Dec. 21. It is expected to re turn to work again about Jan. 8. President Kennedy set the stage for its renewed work in his Oct. 28 statement and let ter to Khrushchev acknowl edging the Russian's decision to withdraw Soviet missiles from Cuba. His letter declared the two countries should "give lop priority to questions relating , to the proliferation of nuclear weapons, on earth and in out- er space, and to the great effort for a nuclear test ban." In the statement, Kennedy said he hoped there could now be a discussion of ways for dealing with the military confrontation between the NATO and Warsaw Pact countries. i Willing To Trade Views i Khrushchev replied he was willing to exchange views on a possible relaxation of tension between the NATO and Warsaw treaty countries, I and also on the prohibition of I atomic and thermonuclear! weapons, on general disarma-1 ment and on other problems relating to the relaxation of international tension. The President's advisors believe that now Khrushchev has learned he cannot estab lish missile bases in this hemisphere, the Russian may be willing to consider a for mal agreement ending the spread of nuclear weapons to nations which do not now possess them. The President has two agreements in mind -one ending proliferation on earth, and another insuring that nu clear warheads would not be placed in orbit around the earth. Above all, the President's1 advisors believe the Cuban ex- j perience may have shown ! Khrushchev the wisdom of moving slowly and in the open. This has long been the point I of American proposals to re duce the risk of war by acci dent, surprise or miscalcula tion. This would result in all nations being aware of mas sive or significant military! moves by all others, and their purpose, and therefore unlike ly to react rashly. Khrushchev has seen how close he brought the world to approved and the President war by his secret military signed a law permitting the buildup In Cuba. I United States to permit for- Better Communication eign embassies in Washington One measure to reduce the;!" operate radio transmitters risk of war would be the tin provement of communication between heads of government. Using the old fashioned means of communication thnt were available, their aides found it required at least six hours for a private message from Kennedy or Khrushchev to reach the other during the Cuban crisis. When they need ed to communicate more rap idly they had to abandon pri vacy. Rut the congress last month in return for the same privi lege for U.S. embassies in oth er countries. If such an agreement were worked out with Russia, it would mean both embassies could use automatic encrypt ing devices - better known as scramblers - and could trans mit private messages between government in minutes. It Is probably as close to realization as the idea of a "hot" telephone line linking the White House and the Kremlin will ever come. But which could be read from on testing. The Russians vIa. in an age of nuclear missiles, , time to time by neutral ex-hated the last such mnr.ii. pens in neutral territories : um, wilnout warnlm, From the Russian point of; it is believed, this kind of arrangement could prevent war. Lively Interest The President continues to have a lively interest in the possibility of an agreement to end nuclear testing. But such an agreement must be carefully policed, as disarmament itself, and '.his is where the Russians balk. During the Geneva recess, the Russians Indicated they might consider a grid of seal ed "black boxes" which would carry instruments for detect ing nuclear explosions, and County Building Plan Subject of Court's Letter The county court would welcome working with the county planning commission in developing needed long range planning for county owned properties and build ings, the county court wrote the planning commission rec ently. "The county court agrees the policy for future building construction and land develop ment by the county should be studied and recommended by the Jackson county plan ning commission. This ap proach should be normal pro cedure," the letter stated. The court urged full coop erative consideration for joint and city planning commission studies. A review of existing county lands and buildings as to present use and need for ex pansion should be made, the letter stated. "A great portion of the fairgrounds property while being county property is sit uated inside the city of Med ford and would be subject to the zone regulations of the city and buildings would be subject to the Mcdford city planning commission under variances of zone changes," the letter stated further.

The Americans say t h e "black boxes" could be easily tampered with. But they are willing to participate in a scientific study of the possi bilities.
