Socialite Admits She Is
Heart Interest Of Famed
'Ivy League' Burglar
SAN FRANCISCO, UPI) A
blonde divorcee, member of a so
cially prominent San Francisco
family, admitted today she was
the "heart interest" of Charles
Visokay, the Ivy League burglar.
Mrs. Rencl Dinneen Tron, 23.
said it was "positively devastating
to learn that he had burglarized
the houses of friends of mine."
Mrs. Tron said she first met
Visokay, 29. a formar Yale stu
dent, at a cocktail party last fall.
She said they had become "very
lond of one another.
"I was very fond of him and he
of me," she said. "I imagine I
was considered his heart interest
She pointedly refused to discuss
whether she and Visokay planned
to marry. She said there was no
engagement.
Mrs. Tron said she had never
heard of 22-year-old Jeanne San
som of Oakland, who claimed she
had been a girl friend of Viso
kay until she read of her1 in the
papers.
She said she and Chuck, as
she called Visokay, went out two
or three' times a week to social
affairs at the homes of her friends.
"To my knowledge, he burglar
ized only one house to which 1
had taken him," she said. "I was
very embarrassed over it."
Mrs. Tron was married in Au
gust, 1954. to Georges Francois
Tron in a glittering society wed
ding. The couple went to Mexico
City to live. She divorced him
there last summer. She has a
young daughter by that marriage.
Visokay was arrested recently
and admitted taking more than
J100.000 worth of loot from at
least 16 homes in the exclusive
Pacific Heights and Presidio
Heights districts.
Police recovered much of the
loot in his apartment.

Approval For
Tax Extension
Bill Forecast
WASHINGTON (AP)-Presidcnt
Eisenhower's bill to extend pres
ent corporation and federal excise
tax rates for another year comes
up for expected approval today in
the Senate Finance Committee.
Chairman Harry F. Byrd (D
Vai said in advance of the closed
door meeting he expected the
committee to approve the bill,
probably without any tax-cutting
amendments, after hearing testi
mony from top administration fis
cal officials.
There is strong support in the
Senate for an amendment to the
bill to repeal the 3 per cent excise
levy on freight and the 10 per
cent tax on passenger travel.
But Sen. George A. Smalhers
(D-FIa), a principal backer of
this amendment and a committee
member, said the effort to attach
It to the measure might be de
(erred until the bill reaches the
Senate floor.
Sen. Paul H. DouRlas (Dili),
another committee member.
planned to offer a proposal for a
six-billion-dollar antirecession tax
cut as an amendment to the ex
tension bill at. the meeting. He
proposes cuts in income, small
business, various excise and other
taxes as part of a package.
Similar moves by Douglas have
been rejected in the committee
previously this year.
The bill would continue the cor
poration income tax rate of 52
per cent instead of permitting it
to drop to 47 per cent July 1.
It also would continue present
rates on some of the most produc
tive excises those on liquor,
beer, wine, cigarettes, passenger
cars, and auto parts and accessories.
Hermiston To
Cut Services
HERMISTON (AP)-IIcrmiston
will cut its municipal services
drastically June 30 because voters
for a second time have rejected

rejection at Ihe polls this week.

early May.

ployes of the street department
and all but two of the seven men

funds to operate the cemetery, the
city park, the cily recreation cen
ter and the airport, he said.
The airport has some income o(
its own. and the operator said he
would slay in business.
The water, sewer and irrigation
departments also will continue
normal operations, but Ihe num
ber of men answering fire calls
will he limited, oflicials said, add
ing that no rural lire calls will
be answered.
City Atty. E. W. Barnes said
the voter rejection means the city
will have to operate within the li
per cent limitation until another
election and the lirst possible date
for an election will be July 14.
The proposed budget was S32.V
05.1, of which $17,177 was in the
8 per cent limitation.

supersonic guided missile which the Army June 10 awarded
the Lockheed Missile Systems Division at Sunnydale, Cali
fornia, a 7'z million dollar contract to build. The King
fisher is used to simulate an enemy air attacker and tests
the accuracy and destructive power of the nation's inter

it is able to record theoretical hits and near misses without
itself being destroyed. Another feature is that it is recov

Protest Filed
Against Power
Line Building
PORTLAND (AP) The North
west Public Power Assn. is pro
testing an Idaho Power Co. plan
lo build a seven million dollar
transmission line from Brownlee
Dam to Lewiston.
The association said an informal
protest had been filed with the
Federal Power Commission, the
agency which licensed Idaho Pow
er to build the low dam in the
Hells Canyon reach of the Snake
River.
The public power 'group said
construction of such a transmis
sion line would violate terms of
the license. These terms, North
west said, require that transmis
sion lines be coordinated with ex
isting facilities In the region.
Studies made by the Idaho Pow
er Co. and the Bonneville Power
Administration show that a short
er and more economic line to La
Grande, Ore., would be the best
means of connecting to the exist
ing facilities. Northwest said.
"The construction of duplicative
and wasteful transmission lines is
contrary to sound utility econom
ics and utility regulation and is
contrary to the public interest,"
said Gus Norwood, executive sec
retary of Northwest Public Power.
The association said that, the
IPC line, as planned, would in
flate Ihe cost of power.
Norwood said a similar com
plaint last year by the association
forced Pacific Power and Light
Co. to abandon a plan to build
a duplicative line from Ihe Swill
project on the Lewis River to
Troutdale, Ore. Instead Ihe line
was lied into Ihe federal system
at Woodland, Wash., he said.
James Madison Randolph.
grandson of President Thomas Jef
ferson, was Ihe first child horn in

he will enter the forbidden nuclear
testing area near Eniwetok.
The Coast Guard made no ef
fort to stop the Japanese - built
ketch as she left Ala Wai boat
harbor Wednesday night with skip
per Earle Reynolds, 46, his wife,
their two children and- a Japanese
from Hiroshima.
Federal authorities said earlier
that the slow sailing ketch will not
arrive in the vicinity of the Mar
shall Islands for at least a month.
By then, the nuclear tests will have
been completed.
Reynolds did not say he would
definitely set sail for the test area.'

for the high seas, traveling south
west to the latitude of Eniwetok,
and then westward.

to sail.

the recession began last August
is reported by the Commerce De
partment. The department said Wednes
day that the nation's personal in
come rate increased by tl,2U0.0O0,
000 on a yearly basis during May,
This- boosted the total annual
rate to $.144.300,000,000 off three
billion dollars from the peak rate

compensation, social security ben
efits and relief grants. They rose
by 400 million dollars.
At the same time, wages and
salaries which had been slipping
continuously since last summer
rose by 700 million dollars on an
annual basis after allowance for
