June 20 .V An undertaker today incorrectly iaentified a death victim named Will Hays as the former chair man of the republican national committee and head of the Mo tion Picture Producers associa tion. An employe of Pierce Broth ers, a southern California mor tuary, telephoned the Los Ange les Evening Herald and Express to announce the denth. The newspaper quickly notified The Associated Press. A check with the former Hays' office and with Hays' home in Encino determined a few minutes later that the iden tification was erroneous. Hays now is in New York, close friends said. The confusion was occasioned partially by the fact that both the Hays of movie fame and the other Will H. Hays, a farmer, reside in Encino. The names are identical, even to the initial. The Pierce Brothers' spokes man said that when a request to come for Hays' body was tele phoned to the mortuary, the caller was asked if it was "the" Will Hays, and the response was affirmative.

Prices Cause Lack Of Meat WASHINGTON, June 20 (A) Foreshadowing even slimmer supplies of meats than now exists in many cities, the agri culture department reported to day that the nation's big pack ers were virtually forced out of the cattle market last week by further advances in prices. The big packers contend that prices ollered tor most slaugh tered cattle in recent weeks are above levels which they can pay and still comply with govern ment price controls. These pack ers normally provide the bulk of the meat moving in interstate commerce, particularly to urban areas. Reviewing last week's live stock markets, the department said the big packers probably secured fewer cattle than in any previous week in their history. Buyers tor other slaughterers generally small local concerns and plants doing custom killing for hotels and restaurants were said to have "practically taken over" the marketing run which, at 12 leading centers, was rough ly 10 per cent short of the pre vious week's small volume. Foley's Case in Hands of Jury (Continued from huge One) Clarence A. Humble, but denied the motion for ilismissal. Then this morning, after the state had rested, Balentine again moved for dismissal because, he said, the prosecution's testimony "tailed to prove a crime." District Attorney Huntble, arguing against the move, said that the crime had been shown, Foley was identified as the driv er 01 the car which rammed into the back of a stalled pickup, pinning Spicher between the ve hicles, that the state had shown negligence in Foley's driving by his not seeing the stalled truck at the lighted corner. Motion Denied That motion for dismissal was also denied. Foley, placed on the stand in his own defense, testified that he did not see the stalled truck in time to avert the accident because the pavement was wet and the lights glared in his eyes. He was in the right lane on the highway, he said, the traffic light at E. Main read "go" and he had the car under control. Johnny Spicher and Joe M. Durson had come out of a filling staUon at the corner to help push the stalled truck off the high way, and Spicher, on the left rear of the truck, was struck when the car driven by Foley smashed into the truck. Dun-: son, on the right side, was not I hit. Spicher, his legs crushed, 1 was placed in a cab and died on the way to a hospital. j Joseph G. Balthazar, testifying for the state yesterday after noon, said that he was following the car driven by Foley along S. 6th and that the car was traveling at least 30 miles an hour when he heard the sound of the crash. Balthazar's estimate of the speed was made from a block away, he said. This morning, at the request of the defense, the jurors were showed police pictures taken at the scene of the accident, the pictures showing that Foley's car was in the correct traffic lane and that the men pushing the stalled truck may have ob structed Foley's view of the truck's two tail lights, as the defense has contended. Dunson said yesterday that he did not believe he was standing in front of the tail light ' The jurymen were also taken ' to the scene of the accident this morning. Judge Vandenbere said this morning, referring to the flaw 1 in the indictment and the de-1 fense'j other motion for dis-1 missal, that he was going to let I the case go to the jury but if j Foley was found guilty he would j probably have to set aside the I verdict. j r I President Summons Alaskan Tourists EDMONTON, June 20 P) A party of Anchorage, Alaska, businessmen who passed through Edmonton en route to the, central United States, have received a summons for an interview with President Truman in Washing ton, it was disclosed today in a telegram received by the Edmon ton chamber of commerce.
