In tribute to Hays, about 700 friends and well wishers assem- praised by many national figures. Responding, Hays said the cause of moderation is not hopeless. He called for "an appreciation of what the rule of law means in sustaining our liberties and our property." Laudatory messages were read from many national figures unable to attend.

Among the speakers was evan gelist Billy Graham, a member of the Southern Baptist Conven tion of which Hays is president. Graham said Hays, now complet ing 16 years in Congress, "has helped lift the word 'polities' out of the mud." While there were many refer ences to Hays' defeat, there was no mention of Alford, the man who beat him by 1,200 votes. Alford, however, has no clear path to Hays' seat. A special House committee, by a 3-2 vote, recommended Wednesday that Alford be denied the seat until an investigation is made of charges there were irregularities in the election. The House will decide that matter on Jan. 7. Many members of .Congress came to the Hays dinner, but few i were from the South.

McLain, 16. kill a grocer in a robbery at suburban Houghton in 1957 or is his confession just a wild but convincing flight of im agination? A Ft. Lewis grade school teach er who was formerly an attendant at Western State said McLain was confined at the mental hospital on Oct. 31, 1957, when Norton Greg ory was killed while his store was being robbed of $90. James Wood said Thursday night that records showed McLain was at the hospital on the day of the killing. He vouched for the accuracy of these records. Wood said he was one of two attendants in charge of a movie party from which McLain escaped Nov. 1. "I remember the incident oer- fectly. It was the first kid ! ever lost." I Wood labeled as correct three! separate hospital records which i gave Nov. 1, 1957, as the date on which the boy escaped. King County Undersheriff Don Sprinkle said lie detector tests given McLain Thursday tended to i support at least part of his con- tession. He said an important new development, which he did not reveal, was also brought out dur ing the tests. A detective was sent to Tacoma to interview two boys and two girls McLain contends he saw and spoke to on Oct. 28, 1957. This is the date he claims to have es caped from the hospital.

Wells, publisher of a Little Rock weekly newspaper, was thrust on to the national political stage when he contested the election of Dr. Dale Alford in Arkansas' 5th Congressional District. As a result of Wells' investiga tion and testimony, a House com mittee recommended 3-2 that Al ford be denied a seat in the House pending an investigation. Alford, a staunch segregation ist, conducted a last - minute. whirlwind campaign as a write-in candidate to unseat veteran Rep. Brooks Hays (D-Ark), a moderate on the racial issue. On the basis of original returns, Alford won by aDoui 1,200 voles. Wells charged that the Alford campaign and election was fraught with irregularities, fraud and conspiracy. He singled out Arkansas Gov. Orval E. Faubus as an alleged conspirator to turn out Hays, the Democratic nomi nee. Faubus has denied the ac cusation.

It said: The American stride forward into space proves the Americans now have a super rocket that can serve a dual role biasing Russia's secret war centers or enabling the United States to put big research labora tories crammed with instruments of many kinds into space. "It also brings very much near er the day when man makes the first trip into space." At Jodrell Bank, England, the operators of the world's largest radio telescope, which has tracked other American satellites and the Pioneer -moon shots, apparently were as much surprised as the rest of the world. At the time of the launching, the telescope was engaged in rou tine! astronomical observation, and four Americans who have helped r.i previous trackings of U.S. space were on duly. The Soviet regime first told its people about the orbiting Atlas some eight hours after the first announcement in Washington. Mos cow radio broadcasts in both Rus sian and English told of the mis sile advance without any com ment. Wells' goal most of his 56 years, He began his career as 7.50-a- week newspaper reporter in Little Rock, his home town. He won honorable mention on the Pulitzer Prize list in 1932 for a series of articles exposing graft in public omce. When he quit the daily field in 1906, the staff of Little Rock's Arkansas Gazette wrote of their departing city editor: He was bitten by a small but vicious insect known as the Bogus Poli- ncus. Wells served in the administra tion of the late Carl E. Bailey, who was Arkansas' governor from 1937 to 1941. He was left to his own devices after Bailey was defeated in a tmrd term bid. Still a newspaperman at heart. he scraped together enough money to buy a used newspaper press and went into tne printing business. He launched his weekly Arkan sas Recorder a few years later. Some called the Recorder a political newspaper. Wells said it was a "government news digest." A lot of people think I like politics," he said. "I abhor poli tics. I definitely believe that gov ernment is the big challenge. "I think politics is a necessary evil." The Recorder's nuroose. he con. tinued, was to report state gov ernment news in depth some thing he felt the dailies failed to do. By policy the Recorder avoids interviews with political office holders. Its stories, instead, rely on public records. The paper with a paid circula tion of approximately 4,000 also is a sounding board for Wells, i his pointed editorial have lashed friend and foe alike and generally take the stand of the Southern conservative. In recent years his main tareet or criticism nas been Gov. Fau bus. Wells has denounced the U. S. Supreme Court's deseereeation decision, while decrying Faubus' Handling of the Little Rock school integration. A friend who felt the stine of wens editorial bite was Havs himself. Despite their close relationship. Wells' recorder pointed an accus ing finger at the congressman for nis racial moderation. But Wells doesn't feel he is fiRhting Hays' battle, or against Alford. "It should be Wells vs. Faubus." he said. PORTLAND (AP) The key to the mystery of a missing Port land family may lie at the bot tom of a treacherous 630-foot cliff. A search party -goes down today to find out. The hunt for Mr. and Mrs. Ken Martin and their three young daughters shifted late Thursday to Crown Point, a scenic view point overlooking the Columbia River IS miles west of here. Sheriff's deputies said a hat and scarf found on the clifi. plus freshly broken trees, hinted that the, car carrying the family may have shot into the canyon. "It's a possibility it may be them," said deputy Bill Whiting. Hut again,- it may not be. We II just have to check and find out." The cliff falls off sharply for about 350 feet, levels out for a short distance and then turns into a sloping wall of shale that ends in a waterless basin. It was on part of the lower wall that deputy Jack Elliott found the hat and scarf.. Later, deputies found a freshly-snapped tree, and said it appeared a heavy object nad cut a path through dense brush. I Late Thursday, three Gresham firemen swung about 250 feet on ropes down the face of the cliff. They found no car, and were forced back by darkness. At the top of the cliff is a high way. There is no guard rail along part of it. Deputy Elliott found the hat and scarf after Janice Moore, the operator ot a cate at Crown Point, said she heard a car horn the afternoon of Dec. 7. She heard it clearly for several minutes, but saw no car along Jhe highway. Later, she said, ihe heard it again. It was on Dec. 7 that the Martin family vanished after setting out from Portland to find a Christmas tree. t The search has covered most wooded areas and streams in the vicinity of Portland, in addition to Larch Mountain and .Mount Hood, Martin, 54, was an employe of an electric company here.
