Newspaper Page Texti PAGE 2 A Trust Fund To Be Held Until 1991 BOSTON (AP) A trust fund ol 1,000 pounds sterling established for "young married artificers" in 17J0 by Benjamin Franklin must be held and allowed-to grow until 11)31. The Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court so ruled Tuesday in refusing to terminate the trust fund which now has grown to $1,578,098. The entire amount will be divid ed between Boston and the Com monwealth "for public works" as Franklin directed in his will. It was established to provide loans, at 5 per cent, to "young married artificers under age of 25 years" for establishment of their own shops. ' Franklin willed that the original 1.000 pounds given to Boston and Philadelphia be allowed to grow for 100 years when payments for public works were to be made both cities. The remainder, Franklin stipu- lated, must be retained for an other 100 years and then be abol ished and the money divided be tween Boston and Massachusetts. The Franklin Technical Institute in Boston was founded in 1891 with share of the funds. The Franklin Foundation ' of Boston had sued the Common wealth, the attorney general and the city of Boston, asking the city and state be authorized now to pay the funds to the Franklin Technical Institute. The institute is a technical school operated by the Franklin Foundation. The suit contended it no longer is practicable to carry out Frank Jin's original plan, The court, in an 11-page deci- mon written by Chief Justice Ray mond S. Wilkins, denied the plea.

NEWS, Klamath Falls, Ore, Bill Sought Civil Rights few hours, another 16 members added their names to a petition to pry a pending measure loose from the Southern-led House Rules Committee. The petition had been hanging over from last year's session. Members promoting the peti tion said the number of signatures had reached about 140. They claimed sufficient support to get the full 219 names needed. Several Southerners said they had no rea son to doubt this. There were broad hints, how ever, that if the petition appeared certain to succeed, the Rules Committee would beat a strategic retreat and send the bill to the House under conditions as favor able as possible to the Southern ers. In the Senate, meanwhile. Chairman Thomas C. Hennings Jr. (D-Mo) said the Rules Com mittee will hold hearings within a month on legislation to provide for appointment of federal voting registrars. The Civil Rights Commission proposed such legislation last year to prevent discrimination by state voting officials against Negroes and other minority groups. Southern opponents consi der the proposal unconstitutional however, and the administration reportedly is not planning to sup port its enactment. ' . . Hennings talked of completing committee action on a registrar bill by early February, well in ad vance of scheduled mid-February civil rights debate in the Senate. Rayburn said the House can get action on civil rights, if it wants it, in about two weeks, indicating a decision by the parly leadership to let the fight open there. The major delays, however, were ex pected in the Senate, although Democratic Leader Lyndon B. Johnson publicly recalled an agreement to bring up civil rights for debate in that body about mid- February. But both sides appeared in agreement to this extent: Con gress almost certainly will pass some kind of civil rights legisla tion this year. And the present hill is probably as much as the House will agree on, at least ini tially. Some Southerners who were willing to discuss the measure without attribution, indicated it had the advantage to them of be ing much less drastic than it might have been or than it ws before Southerners and their af lies in the House .Judiciary Com mittee pruned it. Yet supporters of a strong fed- oral civil rights stand could say this for the measure: It does break into the school integration area by making it a federal crime to oppose by force or threats the carrying out of court desegrega tion orders. The bill also would facilitate FBI investigation of bombings and would require registrars to pre serve voting documents for in spection by federal officials. The floor leader of House Demo crats favoring strong civil rights laws disclaimed any intention of seeking to strengthen the pending bill through floor amendments. Hep. Emanuel Celler of New York said that while he would not ob ject to such amendments, he has no plan to offer any. Fight Vowed By Trainer MIAMI (UPI) - A young ani mal trainer vowed he would 'fight to the end" to keep a tal ented chimpanzee he raised like a son. I'm not going to let him go again not if 1 can help it," de clared Robert Tomarchin, 27, as he cradled "Mr. Moke" in his arms. Both Tomarchin and Mr. Moke appeared at an identification hearing here Wednesday. The chimp wore a polo shirt. Tomarchin has admitted steal ing Mr. Moke from his cage in the St. Louis Zoo Dec. 21 and leaving a check for $i,ooo with a note promising $2,000 more later. Tomarchin, a native of Phila delphia, said he sold the chimp to the zoo for $1,500 because he had lo go to the South Pacific and did not want to take Mr Moke along. But he said when he saw his pot in the zoo, he knew he had made a mistake. For the present, Mr. Moke and Tomarchin will remain together. Peace Justice Francis Christie said bond had been posted to al low the monkey to remain in To marchin's custody pending further action. Catagoriied MONTGOMERY. A!a.

Several Answers Missing Though Steel PITTSBURGH (AP) The long steel dispute is settled but some of the questions it raised about productivity, inflation and pricing policies may rage on for months perhaps years. .; Even in agreement, the United Stcelworkers and the industry dis agreed whether the new contract's terms are inflationary. USW President David J. Mc Donald told the union's 500,000 members in basic steel mills it is "the greatest contract ever." But he said it was not an infla tionary agreement. Roger M. Blough, board chair man of U.S. Steel Corp., said the pact "could hardly be regarded as noninflationary." The differences over inflation just about boil down to the ques tion of whether prices on steel should be increased. And that is a question union and management have been disputing for years. Blough said his firm, the world s biggest steel producer, did not plan any immediate price in crease. Just about everyone inter ested in steel drew a red circle around the word "immediate." McDonald and his union long have argued that most of the in creases in steel prices were not necessary because of labor costs. Blough used percentage figures and said labor costs have gone up an average of 8 per cent an nually for the past 20 years while steel prices have risen about o'A per cent annually over the same period. The union takes the opposite view. Before the settlement, Mc Donald used figures taken from a survey by Secretary of Labor James P. Mitchell and said: 'In a period of the last Vk years, all of the hourly wage in creases and improvement benefits of production and maintenance employes raised the cost of a ton of steel by only $12. 'But in the same period the price of steel was raised $48 a ton or four times as much. Which set of figures is correct? Probably both. As for the Mitchell report each side union and man agementused parts of it to back up their points. But the arguments raged on. The Mitchell report said the pro ductivity of steelworkers increased 2.6 per cent between 1947-1957. In dustry made an offer which it said represented a 2.6 per cent increase in employment costs. The union rejected it. When steel company economists examine labor costs they delve deeper than the union does. They take into consideration the in direct as well as the direct effects of a wage increase. That means that industry csti mates of labor costs include anti cipated increases in goods and services they must buy as well as the labor they must pay. Not many years ago companies figured that every cent increase in wages upped the cost of pro ducing a ton of steel by 40 cents They figured it this way: it takes 20 man hours to produce a COMING JAN. 22ml A CTlQti Co -H iTj iTwTTTTTrtM a 1 1 1 . 1 11 f - GET YOUR SHARI Strike Over ton of steel. Therefore, there is an automatic increase of 20 cents a ton on production. The cost of goods and services bought from outside will gradually increase productions costs another 20 cents a ton on steel. It no longer requires 20 man hours to make a ton of steel but the firms still use the same for mula with new figures. There's' no accurate estimate available but to day it probably would require something like 15 man hours to produce a ton of steel. Crowd Views Cons' Arrival GARDEN CITY, Kan. (AP)-A curious, quiet crowd of about 500 watched the arrival Wednesday night of two men charged in the Clutter family slayings. Two cars carrying ex-convicts Richard Eugene Hickock, 28, Per ry Edward Smith, 31, and their police escorts were quickly sur rounded by 21 officers. Hickock and Smith, handcuffed, then were hustled from the court house square into the Finney County Jail. There was no demon stration from the crowd. The men are charged with mur dering four members of the well- liked Herbert W. Clutter family- Clutter, 48, a prominent farmer; Mrs. Clutter, 45; a daughter, Nan cy Mae, 16, and a son, Kenyon, 15. The bodies bound,, gagged and shot were found in the Clutter home near Garden City Nov. 15. Hickock, 28, of Edgerton, Kan., and Smith, 31, were picked up Dec. 30 in Las Vegas, Nev. Both have confessed the killings, Coun ty Atty. Duane West said. GOPer Elected By Demo Group OSWEGO, Kan.

(AP) - Three rows of shrouded bodies, victims of 1960's first airliner crash, lay in the Southport High School gym nasium today awaiting identifica tion by relatives and an FBI fin gerprint team. Thirtv-four persons were aboard the National Airlines DC6B which apparently disintegrated in the air and cast wreckage and bodies over a 20-acre area early Wednesday. None survived. Searchers found 32 bodies by nightfall in the plowed fields and mnrshv Dinev woods where the New York-to-Miami flight fell. Darkness and foul weather de layed the search for the remain ing two victims overnight. C. Lester Trotter, an assistant director of the FBI, came here from Washington with a 4 -man team to help identify the 29 pas sengers and five crew members on the plane. Relatives also began arriving to identify and claim their dead. Another federal official, David L. Thompson of the Civil Aero nautics Board's New York area of fice, was dispatched to direct the investigation into the cause of the crash. The plane "apparently disinte grated in the air from an un known cause," said John L. Mor ris, a National Airlines vice presi dent. "The plane was in good or der and was in the hands of a veteran crew. There was nothing from the pilot prior to the crash that would indicate any malfunc tion." However, the altimeter in the wreckage of the cockpit showed an elevation of 1,500 feet. And in struments indicated the right wing may have been down as if the plane was banking. It appeared that the crew and passengers may have known the piane was in difficulty. A National Airlines spokesman said, "judging from the fact that some of the victims had on life jackets, it can be presumed that the captain had informed the passengers of an emergency situation and was try ing to make an emergency land ing." Four bodies wore vest-type lift jackets and several victims were strapped to their seats with safety belts. An inflated' 25-man life raft was wrapped around some pine trees. But it may have inflated itself automatically. There also were indications that the pilot might have been seeking a refuge in the murky, rainy night A chunk of metal was found at Kure Beach, 25 miles east of the crash scene, or about five min utes away at the plane's normal cruising speed. The craft's south bound route would not have crossed both Kure Beach and Bo livia.

Another indication that the air. craft may have been off its coursi and coming back was the reccj. lection of residents at the crash site. Mrs. Richard Randolph, 37-year, old mother of 11, said the noise of the descending plane awoke her, She first heard it from a direo tion generally south of her home, and later heard an explosion to the north. And Clyde Galloway, who lives about half mile north ol the site and who described himself as a light sleeper, said he heard nothing. The engineer's log, found in thi 25-foot nose section of the wreck age, bore a notation that the flight had checked with the Wilmington Airport at 2:07 a.m. Twenty-four minutes later the crew reported the flight was south of Wilming. ion, thus beginning the 550-mili leg over the Atlantic to Florida. A stopped watch on one of th victims, and eye witness reports, set the time of the crash at 2:4 a.m. But it was some four hours later before the location was reported by Richard Randolph, owner ol the 82-acre farm where the wreck age was strewn. Shortly after day. break, Randolph walked into hit field and saw the debris. "I yelled, 'hey! hey!," he said. "But nobody answered." Fox Terrier Doing Well FORT WORTH, Tex.
