Accused
Gains Time
For Hearing
B PAUL FELDMAN
OKLAHOMA CITY (JPt A flurry
of defense motions designed to gain
a delay were presented as tne
sanity hearing of Otto Loel, ac
cused slayer of a California house
wife, started Monday before Dlst.
Judge A. P. Van Meter.
The sanity hearing will determine
whether Loel Is mentally capable
to stand trial on a murder charge
growing out of the brutal killing
of Mrs. Ellzabsth Jeanne Hender
son. 31. Comp'.on, Calif. Mrs.
Henderson was found in a motel
here Jan. 10, 1951, stabbed 13
times.
If Loel Is found sane by a Jury
he will go on trial Tuesday.
State psychiatrists contend that
the 44-year-old man Is an "odd
ball" but Is sane. Defense attor
neys contend Loel Is Insane. Loel
was listed on the FBI's 10 most
wanted criminal list when arrested
in Sanford. Fla.. last Jsnuary.
Loel told psychiatrists who had
him under observation tor months
thrt he had a fight with the woman
but had no memory of stabolng
her.
He said he met her in a bar
in California and they started a
cross-country trip. The woman'b
husband thought they were on a
"share tne expenses junket.
In a long, detailed account of
his life, Loel told doctors he had
hepr. married five times and had
"nothing but trouble" from his
wives.
He claimed to have been a
confidence man dealing In opium
In China, a Navy bad boy who
was given a bad conduct discharge,
a mink farmer, lumberjack and
chief of police of Sandy, Ore.
Loel claimed his nr.U wile was
Chinese girl he "bought." Psy
chiatrists, who termed him a
"social reject," said Loel often
went to great lengths In discussing
the "superior qualities" of Chinese
women, as compared to American
women.
But the doctors said Loel was
also a man who "may cleverly
conceal or fabricate his acts In
order to manipulate other persons
and further his own selfish inter
ests." Chair-Lift

Woodland auditing firm has .re
ported, that It recommended set
ting up new books "on. a "starting
basis," County Auditor Ernest T.
Johnson said Friday in Yreka.
Representatives of the firm of
Poi terfield and Harris of Woodland
found records so inadequate that
they told Johnson they could not
audit accounts of the probation of
fice, county hospital, county sur
veyor or road department.
The Siskiyou County board of

system of accounts for the four
departments. .Future audits will
start from the accounts as set up
now, Johnson said.
The auditors pointed out that
various Siskiyou County depart
ments take no action to collect old
bills. The county hospital at Yreka,
they added, pays a collection agen
cy 30 to 50 per cent for collecting
delinquent bills.
