Seattle - OIPII - An official
of the Pacific Northwest Log

Sheriff Undecided
On Recount Move
St. Helens-niPD - Columbia
County Sheriff Spencer
Younce said today that "no
decision" has been made on
whether an appeal will be
made of a ruling which will
cost him his job.
Circuit Judges J. S. Bohn-
nan and Glen Hieber ruled
here Friday that Republican
Roy S. Wilburn defeated
Younce, a Democrat, for the
sheriff's office in the general
election last month.
"I have not discussed the
ruling as yet with my at
torneys," Younce said. "We
plan to get together either
this week or next week."
The Judges declared that a
recount of votes In the sher
iff's race was void. They
agreed with charges by Wil
burn that the ballots were
tampered with between the
count after the Nov. 6 elec
tion and the recount Nov. 26.
Younce came out the win
ner of the election in the re
count by 41 votes. He lost by
100 votes in the first count,
which was 4,273 to 4,173.

pose of the government scrut

The companies have been
directed to submit their rec
ords to a federal grand jury
here Jan. 22. The Justice De-
oartment asked for books,
records, documents having to
do with the association and
letters which pased between
member companies.
Orders Softened
Murdock said government
agent J. Fred Malakoff first
visited him Oct. 30 and
quested that all office records
and correspondence of the
PNLA be sent to the Justice
Department's Antitrust Divis
ion in San Francisco.
That and other orders were
later softened until govern
ment investigators conducted
much of their investigation in
the association's office, Mur
dock said. He said they looked
at 456 pieces of correspond
ence, minutes and related rec
ords, plus an estimated 800
pounds of worksheets and
other background material.
Scheduled To Disband
The loggers' association is
scheduled to disband in two
weeks. It has operated a log
price reporting service and
conducted surveys of log sales
since 1033.
Murdock said he suspects
the impending dissolution of
the association was responsible
for the Justice Department's
interest In its work. He says
the government may not have

JOY
JOY is a word often associat
ed with the Christmas sea
son. A lovely way to remem
ber this word is to take it apart - letter by letter.
The first letter "J" could stand for "Jesus First",
second letter "O" for "Others Next", and finally,
the letter 'Y" for "Yourself Last". As Christmas,
the most JOYOUS time of all, is with us, we can
share our JOY, on this holiday, by giving to The
Salvation Army Christmas Appeal, because we
know our gift will be used to bring Joy to others
on Christmas day.

Scrapping of Skybolt Missile Program
By Administration Couid Result in
Congressional Retaliation
Washington - IUPU - The ad
ministration was threatened
today with the possibility of
congression retaliation if it
scraps the Skybolt missile.
Sen. Stuart Symington (D-
cussed by President Kennedy
and Prime Minister Harold
Macmillan when they meet
in Nassau Wednesday and
Thursday.
The official U.S. position
on Skybolt is that no decision
Mo.) said Sunday that unless; has yet been reached on its
arguments for cancelling the
Skybolt program were truly
convincing "this would affect
many other programs that the
administration might like to
see go through Congress."
Symington obviously did
not think the administration
could justify killing Skybolt.
He said that if the Skybolt
was discarded he could not
see "a future for the Air
Force." He noted that the
Russians have developed anti
aircraft missiles that are able
to shoot down bombers be
fore they reach their targets.
The Skybolt is an air-to-ground
missile. It is fired
from a plane, as far as 1,000
miles from target.
The warning by Symington,
one of Congress' most influ
ential military specialists, add
ed a second front to the Sky
bolt controversy.
British officials have react
ed sharply to reports that the
United States will abandon
the missile which is being de
veloped jointly by both coun
tries. Britain has counted on
the missile to be the backbone
of its nuclear strike force.
Topic for Discussion
The issue is expected to be
among the chief topics dis-
future. U.S. military experts
contend the program has been
costly and has not yet pro
duced worthwhile results.
Kennedy said at his news
conference last Wednesday
that the Skybolt missile was
"the most sophisticated weap
on imaginable'' and involved
"the kind of engineering that's
beyond us." But he acknowl
edge that the British had a
right to take part in any de
cision that is made about the
missile's future.
