Stock Decline Said Healthy NEW YORK (AP')-Thc shake- out in the slock market the lirst of Ihe week has frightened lew Wall Slrcetcrs. Even those who hastened lo sell before prices slipped ton far from their peak acted today as if they had been waiting for it rather than showing any surprise. None pretends to know bow far the deflation will carry or when a fresh vigorous upturn will come. But many call the shakeout at this time healthy. Rapidly rising stock prices had by most standards discounted the general business recovery for some lime lo come, that is. rec ord high stock prices could be juslified, in conservative minds only by a boom, in production sales, in profits and in dividends that most people considered many months away. The big upswing in prices also had discounted Ihe inflation tears that many held. These bad grown alter the size of Ihe lederal deficit became known, and later when many felt the election of a liberal spending Congress would aggra vate it. 2.05 2.06 11 per cent 12 per cent Hard While Baart: Ordinary 10 per cent 11 per cent 12 per cent Car receipts: Wheat 31; barley 30; Hour 34; corn 1; mill feed 8. 2.13 2.13 2.13 2.13 Former Resident Dies In Hospital A former Klamath Falls resident for 30 years, Einar C.

Young, 33. was indicted jointly with Stevens for the armed rob bery of Ihe Low Cost Market 111 Ihe Town and Country Shopping Center last July 26. At that time $544 was taken al gunpoint. The d e f c n s e contended thai Young was an unsuspecting, in nocent extra tigure in the holdup and that contention was based principally upon the testimony ol Stevens. Stevens, a man who admitted he has spent 23 of his 40 years in prison and who already had been sentenced to life in prison for his part in the holdup, testified unequivocally that Young knew nothing about it.

"It was by ill fortune that he was mixed up in the thing." Beesley reminded the jurors in his final argument that Mrs. Eve lyn McCoIgin, the clerk who was robbed at Stevens' gunpoint, testi fied she had heard the remark, "Somebody cali the police." "She said she doesn't know who said it," Beesley remarked. "She was looking at that gun it was her major area of concentration but nobody else has come up and volunteered that they said it. Mr. Young did." District Attorney Arthur A. Bed doe, in his summary remarks. observed that Young said he was scared when Stevens pulled the gun on Mrs. McCoIgin. This, the district attorney asserted, was be cause "he was (here for the rob bery, not a murder." Beddoe reminded the jurors that Young was on trial for armed rob berythat Ihe jury was not to be concerned about Stevens guilt, be cause he was not on trial. "The fact that he (Young) got scared and started to back off doesn't make him any less guilty,' Beddoe said. The district attorney also chal lenged Stevens' testimony that the pair had stopped their taxi at the market for cigarettes because Young happened to "be out of smokes. "It is inconceivable that they failing to leave his name and art. dress at the scene of an acci dent, subsequently was dismissed upon motion of the district attorney. Both charges arose from an ac cident November 8 involving cars driven by Crowell and Hubert Boggs ol Klamalh Falls on Ala meda Avenue. In other district court action, Robert Wagner, was found guihy by Judge Van Vactor of assault and battery charges growing out of a brawl in the kitchen of the Broiler last Thursday.
