two blocks from the Clark home
was at the scene within three
minutes. 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. A slocking
cap lay a foot from1 the body.
Under Haledjian's gentle urging.
Mrs. Clark told her story.
"I was in the kitchen when Ar

and to lock myself in the bed

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. '

"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

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-

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

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.

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

U. S. Steel. Allegheny Ludlum.
and Wheeling Steel lost more

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
