Many Friends Pay Tribute To Defeated Candidate
WASHINGTON (AP) Even a bled at a dinner and heard him

Such a moment came Thursday
Bight for Rep. Brooks Havs (D
Ark. Hays, an avowed moderate
on the segregation issue, uas un
seated last month by Dr. Dale
AKord, Little Rock segregation
ist who ran as a late entry write
in candidate.
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. Included were tele
grams from Adlai Stevenson, one

President Richard M. Nixon: Gov.
Price Daniel of Texas; and var
ious members of Congress.
Nixon said Hays' "outstanding
reputation was enhanced rather
than tarnished by defeat."
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.

Grocer Death
Still Mystery
SEATTLE (API Did David
D. 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.

LITTLE ROCK, Ark. (AP)-"I
abhor politics." says John F.
Wells, an Arkansas politician.
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.

Amazing U.S. space triumph."
trumpeted the tabloid Daily Mir-!
ror. 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. His
wife is 48. Their daughters are
Barbara, 14: Virginia, 12; and
Sue, 10.
