In a question and answer peri od. Sheriff Roy Bauman of Mor row County asked if the industry should come here, would this re quire additional community facil ities and schools and where would the money come from to operate them. Gov. Hatfield replied that it was the community's problem to provide the needed services but the state would attempt to pro vide the necessary leadership in getting it. He said this would be a grad ual break and such problems would take care of themselves Robert Parrl state director of state Department of Planning and Development, said prosperity wi come with the new industry. "We have a large file of prospects some hot and some long range." He mentioned no firm names. Hatfield said an area of 100.000 acres was under consideration This would mean that 20,000 ad ditional acres north of the bomb ing range would be needed. The land fronts the John Day Dam reservoir. Lester Grant of Arlington want ed to know if this would increase the population, and Hatfield re plied with the prediction that it would mean, a phenomenal growth, "I would not dare predict a population figure," Hatfield said, "but I believe there will be a phenomenal growth in the area over a period of years." Hatfield said there would be a need for air transport facilities particularly air jet cargo. This came in answer to questions from poultry raisers, who feared it would frighten their poultry.

(AP) - Police sifted through three possible clues today in the search for leads to to the brutal slaying of three so daily prominent women. But Supt. William Morris of the Illinois state police said, "we haven't got anything definite He added police would question two or three men in connection with the fatal bludgeoning of the women in Starved Rock State Park. He declined to identify them. Morris said that several tufts of hair found in the hand of one of the victims, Mrs. Lillian Oetting, 50, were sent to the state police laboratory in Springfield for mi croscopic examination. Morris de clined to say whether the hair might have been torn from the slayer's head in a death struggle. Also sent to the police lab were slivers of bark removed from Mrs. Oetting's skull. Technicians were to compare the bits of bark with a gnarled three - foot long tree limb found alongside the women's bodies at the closed end of picturesque St. Louis Canyon The tree limb was blood-smeared and authorities said it could have been used in the bludgeon-slaying of the women. A search group found the bod ies of Mrs. Oetting, whose hus band, George, is an Illinois Bell Telephone Co. executive: Mrs. Frances Murphy, 47, wife of Rob bert Murphy, a vice president of Borg-Warner Corp., and Mrs. Mil dred Lindquist, 50, wife of Robert Lindquist, a Harris Trust & Sav ings Bank executive, Wednesday. Police established the women were slain early Monday afternoon. South Solon, 31 Others May Bolt Democrat Party WASHINGTON (AIM Rep. Jamio L. Whittcn iD-Miss) savs he and 31 other Southern Congressmen may leave the Dem ocratic party if they don't get better treatment from the House leadership. If Hie group should follow through with its threat, the move possibly Vould give Republicans control of the next House without winning the election. Nothing in the rules would pre vent Southern Democrats from voting with Republicans when the new Congress is organized next year. ' - But the outward reaction of some Democratic leaders wa amusement rather than anxiety. House Democratic Leader John W. McCormnck of Massachusetts said "I thought he was kidding." Speaker Sam Raybuin of Texas declined comment. Whillen made his threat during the civil rights debate after ac cusing the present Democratic and Republican House leadership oi running roughshod over the South for political purposes! He said his group is pledged to take whatever steps it feels lecessary "not merely to pre vent another reconstruction era in the South but to save the nation from destruction." Whittcn, who has been a repre- senative for 19 years and is a member of the House Appropria tions Committee, declined to iden tify other members of his group. He said they plan to hold a strate gy meeting here Nov. 11, three days after the .national election. Whillen said that if the political division of the next House is as close as expected, a group of Southern Democrats would hold he balance of power on election ol officers. The House now has 2X0 Democrats, 152 Republicans and 5 vacancies. Whittcn said his group "can make its weight fell in committee makeup." As for the Senate, Whittcn said at least 18 Southern senators pre sumably would go along in a re volt against the Senate leadership if they thought it necessary. The Senate now has 64 Democrats. 35 Republicans and a vacancy to be tilled soon by a Democrat. Whittcn noted that Southern Democrats head many important House and Senate committees liiU lie added "What good arc cliairmanships if the Speaker packs committees against us?" A source close to Raybuin said any Southern revolt belter have advance assurances of success or the revolters might find them selves without committee assign ments. n In the month of July, 1959, there were 2,1..000 persons on govern ment payrolls.
