Even so, he was too late. Arlhur Clark lay dead in the foyer near a danglins telephone receiver. He had been stabbed twice in the hack. Mrs. Clark was seated on the stairs, sobbing and incoherent. "Clark must have been outside fhoveling snow when he suddenly decided to call the police." Offi cer Murphy told Inspector Winters and Dr. Haledjian when they ar rived. "The walk is nearly cleared, and a shovel is lying by the door. He must have seen something that frightened him, but was stahhed before he could tell what it was." r "He certainly was bundled for this weather," commented the in spector, noting the galoshes, wool sweater, jacket, mittens, and scarf worn by the dead man.

He told me to get upstairs and to lock myself in the bed room. He was going to call the police, he said, because he'd seen Eddie Kilham in the neighborhood.

Ordeal In Wilds Survived By Utah Family Of Eight Top Legislative Hurdles Bar Solons' Adjournment WASHINGTON (AP) Ad journment dale for the 1A5II Con gress still is a big toss-up. In its path are five major legis lative hurdles: civil rights, labor regulation, housing, highways, and interest rates. Committee action on four of the five is scheduled Liis week. Many members are resigned to being in session into September. Some hope to finish around Aug. 22. No one is looking for a July wrapup. The fact that such important is sues still are unsettled does not mean that they have been shunted aside until the big push for ad journment. Long hours of legisla tive work have been spent on them in committees, and in some cases . on both the Senate and House floors. Still on fhe calendar are these major measures: Civil rights:- Most members agree this is the major hurdle An inkling on prospects in this field may come today when the Senate Judiciary Committee meets to consider a relatively simple bill approved last Wednesday by subcommittee. The judiciary group is headed by Sen. James 0. East land (D-Miss), a staunch foe of any such legislation. Labor regulation: A labor-man agement bill generally regarded as more acceptable to organized labor than the Senate version will be voted on formally Wednesday by the House Labor Committee. Housing: Public hearings on President Eisenhower's veto of housing legislation start Thursday belore the Senate Housing sub- journment. There has been pretty much of a deadlock on the pro gram, with Eisenhower demanding KHsoune tax increase a move opposed by Democratic leaders But both sides have started to talk of compromise. imprest rates: ivo action mav be taken this year. The House Ways and Means Committee has come up with a compromise to Eisenhower's proposal for scrap ping the present 4'.4 per cent inter est ceiling on lone-term eovern. ment bonds. It would give the President power, for two years only, to increase the ceiling. But Eisenhower has said he doesn't like that limitation. Long, heated debate appears certain. Efforts to balance the budset still add up to a question mark. Twelve appropriations bills for fis cal Iflfio have been passed by bulb branches. The House over-all total was below the President's re quest, the Senate's was hicher. Still in conference are several ma-i jor bills, including the 40-billion-! dollar defense measure. i Both the House and Senate still have to act on other money mea sures to 'finance foreign aid, the atomic energy program, and mili tary construction. ' MOAR, Utah (AP) Eight parched people and one pint of water, a spoonful at a time ... a burning sun with only a disabled carfor shade ... a little salmon ccg, fish bait lor food . . . and. fi nally, a thirsty child's question: "Mommy, what does it feel like to die?" That was Diane Scott. 9. trying I to sleep alter almost tw o days of khis. Mommy. 35-year-old Laura Scott, answered gravely: "It would be like going to sleep. You'd just go unconscious and gradually die." "Will I get water in Heaven?" "Yes, honey, all you want." Diane didn't die. Neither did Mrs. Scott, her husband Virl, 37, or their five other children, ages 4 to 12. A search plane spotted them Sunday, where their car had stranded them for two days in the remote Country of Standing Rocks. It's near where the Green and Colorado Rivers gorge about 35 miles southwest of Moab, the nearest community. . They took some wrong turns and sot lost on Shafer Trail, a bouldcr crowncd pair of ruts suitable only for trucks or jeeps. Scott said the car's radiator burst. He drove on. thinking they were pointed toward Moab by now more than 40 miles to the northeast. Then the crank case oil pan ruptured and the car quit. "We survived by keeping cool under the dirt," Scott said after their rescue: "dunking water- about a pint from the radiator. one spoonful every 2'i hours. AH we had to eat was some salmon eggs, and we tried to eat cactus but our mouths were so dry we couldn't swallow it. ... , "We gave the children the radi ator water alter trying to purily it by straining it ... it had a per manent type anti-freeze in it" not the poisonous denatured alco hol type. Two fliers, searching for the Scotts. saw the car near an S O S" sign made of rocks. They radioed Moab. then landed a few miles away to take water to the family. A pickup truck reached them later and drove them to a spot where two other planes land ed. The planes flew them here. "When two fliers readied us this morning," Scott said, "the kids were bursting with laughter and Ihcn they started to cry and so did we. I don't see how we sur vived as long as we did and I'm sure we couldn't have made it through today . . . prayer and the Lord helped jis. . . ." He said a doctor told him the children were in better condition than they should have been after such an ordeal. Besides Diane the children are Virlene, 12; Laur ene, 10, Byron, 7; Duwayne, 5, and Leland, 4. By ELMER C. WALZER netted a gain ol 7 points L'I'I Financial Editor I Amerada lost more than a NEW YORK I CPU - Stocks "'"1 wh,lc T"s ' rrodurini: declined on reduced volume when timtw.iiaBBaMui -jnOTmrj i iniif'"'""11 3 half million steel workers went or, strike during the past week. The decline running to more than 5 points in some instances reflected a desire to take profits. The sellers seized upon the steel situation to unload .some of their holdings. Contrary to the' usual proce dure in the stock market not to sell on strike news, the steels were depressed along with other sections. Their losses ranged to 3 points. Business news aside from the strike situation was favorable. Steel operations, of course, (ell oil sharply and declines were noted in car loadings and truck movement. Before the steel ac tion, the government agencies re ported a new record high in em ployment in June and a new high n production for the nation as 9 whole. The one factor in favor of the bulls was that volume fell off sharply as prices declined. Sales lor the week totaled 15,557,8110 shares, or a daily average of 3,111,578 shares. This compared with 18.7lIi.tWi shares or a daily average of 3, 43,033 shares in the previous week. At the week's close the Dow Jones industrial average stood at 6r.l3 off 6.43 points; railroad KiH.95 off 5.27: utility 88.05 up 0.1, and 65 stocks 210.21 off 2.73. Weakness in railroad shares stood out. This group stands to lose sharply by a steel strike. Pennsylvania Railroad started laying off men and said the total R layoffs may run to 6.200 persons. 01 her rails were hard hit by the walkout. In the rail section, Norfolk & Western fell 4'i points and Balti more & Ohio 3U. Pennsylvania was down l'i and Santa Fe nearly 2. U. S. Steel. Allegheny Ludlum. and Wheeling Steel lost more than 2 points each. Carpenter Steel was down 3. Bethlehem lost more than a point. Youngstown Sheet & Tube, a con:rary mover, gained nearly 4 points. The automobile industry con tinued active and its output Tor the week showed a small gain. However, selling went ahead in the group where losses ranged to more than 3 points in Ford and Chrysler. Du Pont fell 3"4 points in the chemicals and Allied was down l'i while Eastman Kodak gained nearly 2 points. Atlas Powder was up 334.
