Dear Ann Landers; My problem Is a niece. Whenever I invite my husband's sister to our home her daughter Irma thinks she's invit ed too. Irma is married but her hus. band travels a lot so she has a good bit of spare time on her hands. Also she has more brass than a eovernment mule. You'd think a arown woman would have some friends and interests of her own, but she hasn't. If we want to play bridge there's always one too many. I've had to cut a small steak in half, stretch the soup and pretend like I didn't want a piece of pie so Irma could have mine. I hate to hurt my sister-ln-law's feelings but I'm sick of having her daugh ter come over here uninvited Please tell me what to do.

Inaugural Weather Promising WASHINGTON (AP) - There's a better man even chance that it won't rain or snow on Jan. 20, Inauguration Day. And the chanc es are even better that the tem perature will be above freezing That should be a bit comforting if you are one of the thousands who has dealt out from S3 to $25 for a grandstand seat to watch President John F. Kennedy s in augural parade. . There is one parade unit that is rather hoping for a heavy snow. That's from the state of Maine, and it has 10 northwoods huskies ready to pull sled down Pennsylvania Avenue. If there a no snow, they 11 have to put wheels on the sled, and that might spoil the effect. The Weather Bureau says it a still too early to forecast the weather accurately for Jan. 20, but 'the weathermen checked into the past records and came up with these statistics: There's a chance of 3 out of 5 that there will be no rain or snow and an S out of 10 chance for above-freezing temperatures. Inauguration Day was changed from March 4 to Jan. 20 in 1937, for Franklin D. Roosevelt's sec ond inaugural. It rained heavily. But since then there have been five Jan. 20 inaugurations with no precipitation. ' The early presidents had good luck. George Washington's first in New York was a fair day, and so was his second in Philadelphia. The first Washington inauguration -Thomas Jefferson s on March 4, 1801, also was on a beautiful day. - But over the years March 4 turned out to be a pretty chancy day weatherwise. In 1945 James G. Polk took his oath under an umbrella In a downpour. There have been many other wet ones, The echoing, drafty National Guard Armory hero is being transformed Into a ballroom fit tor a-president. But the Inaugural Ball is so big it will-be in three sections and three locations. The Kennedys and the Lyndon B. Johnsons will visit all three. The walls of the armory are be ing covered with pale gray cloth called Egyptian rep. Gold eagles with 40-foot wingspreads will look down from each end of the huge auditorium. The balcony will be faced with white satin and studded with the SO state seals. The presidential box will be topped by a gold satin canopy. In the middle of the floor will rise 40-foot circular bandstand decked in satin, golden ropes and goltr eagle. Altogether 19,000 will attend the Inaugural Ball, paying $23 per ticket or $320 a box. The other sections will be at the Mayflower Hotel and at the Sheraton Park Hotel. tkikt At ttiitl ttarV'j itt pniusl MetroGoldwyn-Mayer potent! An ARTHUR FREED Production WW t m -wmcoior Jr. JEAN STAPIETON t4S Monday, January M, IMU Face Traps Ex-Nazi In Germany FRANKFURT. Germany AP)- The face of (he sausage vendor on Hie rail'oad platform looked familiar to two Polish doctors The Prague-Nuernberg train had just reached Schirnding, its first stop on West German territory, A few hours later, sausage vendor Erivl Bednarck, S3, former trusty at Auschwitz ex termination camp, was arrested as a war crimes suspect identic fied by the two doctors, former camp inmates on their way to testify at a West German war crimes trial. In Frankfurt jail Bednarek joined 15 other Auschwitz suspects rounded up recently. "Nazi crimes keep a large part of the German justice machinery busy, and nobody can tell how long It will last," says Chief Prosecutor Heinz Wolf. "It may well go until 1970, but I certainly hope not.1 Scores of suspects are under arrest in West Germany. Every three weeks or so last year a trial involving World War II atrocities opened somewhere in the country. Prospects are that this average will be maintained in 1961. ' Adoll ticnmann will lace an Israeli court in March as a key director of the German program to exterminate Jews. His hench men from Auschwitz will be tried in Germany. Investigations ot war crimes have been speeded up since crea tion ir 1938 of a central agency coordinating the efforts of the 10 West German slates. Until then, probes were mostly conducted on hit and miss basis. "First the Allies handled all war crimes trials in the early postwar period." explained Wolf. "Then, the creation of the West German Republic on a strictly federalist principle delayed cen tral coordination. And work was made enormously difficult for us because l!ic Western Allies and the Russians had seized practical ly all documentary evidence." ine complex Auschwitz case has been going on for almost two years and is not expected to come to trial before 1962. Wolf is helped by a special squad of police detectives, all young . enough to exclude the possibility that they were involved in atrocities themselves. The Nazi background of -many police and justice officials has impeded the investigation in Ger many. Hundreds of policemen who' served In the dreaded Einsatzgruppen" (or special groups) of SS boss Hcinrich Him- ler, have been under suspicion. Most cases against the rank and file were dropped because thev held they acted under coercion and would themselves have been shot had they refused orders. Higher ranks are held for further investigation and possible trial. Many Nazis assumed aliases after the war. SS LI. Gen. Wilholm Koppe, i former police chief In occupied Poland, worked under a false name in Bonn, the West German capital. Most other suspects also have been found making a good living, chiefly as Industry employes or salesmen. The statute of limitations sets a deadline for the prosecution of most Nazi atrocities. For man slaughter, the deadline expired in 1960. For murder it will be 1965. The statute is automatically set aside, however, if some sort of legal action such as a warrant has been taken against the person involved. The biggest trial of 1961 in Germany probably 'will be that of Karl Chmielewski, 57, SS captain and former commandant of a sub camp of Mauthausen. He allegedly invented the "cold water death" in which inmates were drenched at subzero temperatures and then frozen to death. Ho is charged on 300 counts of murder. FIVE PERSONS KILLED YOKOHAMA.

D. Purvine was awardod tlie honorary LLD de gree by his alma mater, Lewis and Clark College, in recognition of outstanding work done in the field of education. The administration of Oregon Technical Institute was trans ferred from the State Board of Education to the State Board of Higher Education. Two potential new campus sites were reviewed by the Higher Board and one was selected adja cent to the north entrance to the city limits of Klamath Falls. Two good wells, one hot and one cold were drilled and surveys were made for preliminary location of buildings. - ; The Owl football team had the first untied, unbeaten season hi the history of Oregon Tech and won the Oregon Collegiate Con ference championship for the sec ond straight year. National Defense Education Act funds in (he amount of $45,000 were made available for long term student loans. Health services on the campus were made available' to students for the first lime. A nurse has been on duty for first aid and minor medical services for sched uled morning and afternoon hours for every school day. Oregon Tech offered its first two correspondence courses through extension during the year. uregon Teen was awarded asso ciate membership in the National Association of Intercollegiate Ath letics. Dr. Purvine was appointed chairman of ECPD (Engineering Council for Professional Develop ment) Kcgion 7 Accrediting Com mittee, and a member of Gover nor Hatfield's Science, Eneincer- ing. and New Technologies Com mittee of the Oregon Department of Planning and Development. The decision was made by the State Board of Higher Education and the General Extension Divi sion to includo Oregon Tech's ed ucational program in extension courses throughout the slate. Highway Technology received ECPD accreditation for the first lime and electronics was reac crcdited. More recruiting teams from electronics and engineering firms relating to national defense have been on the Oregon Tech campus than in all previous years at Ore- est year of placement of Oregon Tech graduates in high-level tech nician positions in these firms. We should report the. happy ending of our dog story. "Bear," the tii-cd. sore-footed, lost pot hound that wandered onto our campus on Dec. 19 has been re turned to his owner in El Pao. Lieutenant Bassard. stationed at El Paso, was ir. Klamath Falls visiting his parents. The dog strayed away and the lieutenant (.pen! the last live days of his vacation searching for him. Upon his return home, he found the let ter from Oregon Tech personnel and the search ended happily.

A year-end summary for 1960 by the Oregon State De partment of Employment shows that employment reached a peak of 737,900 in August, 1960, and on Dec. 15 showed a preliminary es timated total of 647,700. The peak was 13,700 more than the previous 1959 high, according to the sum mary Issued by David H. Camer on, commissioner. Employment covered by unemployment insur ance also peaked higher in Au gust, I960, than in 1959, 456,600 compared to 436,493 in August, 1959, the previous all-time record. Labor dispute cases in Oregon during 1960 affecting the unem- plyoment insurance remained at minimum. Actually only four new disputes started in 1960 in volving 616 employes, and two of these were settled involving 570 employes. Hearings on the prin cipal dispute pending since 1959, the Oregonian, Oregon Journal newspaper case, are scheduled to start Jan. 19 in Portland.

(AP)-Berry growers ui the Hillsboro and Gresham a-eas accepted at a meeting here Friday night an offer of an additional one cent a pound from Birdseye Division of General Foods for their' 1961 strawberry crop. The offer was accepted under protest because it did not come up to the average price paid in California and Washington last year. About 125 growers from Northwestern Oregon and South western Washington packed the city hall here at the meeting, Washington growers disap proved, contending it will depress the price in their state. Average prices paid last year were: Cali fornia 15.3 cents per pound, Wash ington 14.4, and Oregon 13.04. The growers appointed commit tees to negotiate with 12 other berry processors in Oregon. Amendment 14 Passage Asked SALEM (AP) - Sen. Alfred H. Corbett, D-Portland, announced Friday he will introduce a reso lution to ratify the 14th Amend ment to the U.S. Constitution. This Civil War period amend ment guarantees every citizen equal rights. He said that the Oregon Legis lature ratified it, and then with drew its ratification in 1868. Corbett said that attempts to deprive Southern Negroes of the right to vote are reprehensible, but that Oregon's failure to be on the list of states approving the 14th Amendment makes him wince even more. iafeebMawM 1 gently dried by GAS TOU OIT PURR-FECT DRYING SVBRT TIMS WITH A OAS DRYER VISIT OUR DISPLAY FLOOR OR CALL ON YOUR GAS APPLIANCE DEALER 'CALIFORNIA-PACIFIC CITY GAS ance division led ,to prosecutions for fraud in 25 cases with 17 convictions for misdemeanor and eight cases, pending Dec. 30. Dis qualifications were issued in 586 cases. More than $14,000 in over payments were recovered and more than $158,000 saved in weeks benefits denied because of misrepresentation. The appeals board of the unem ployment insurance division dis posed of 265 cases with 21 pend ing on Dec. 30. This number com pares with 249 reviewed during the fiscal year ending June 30, 1960. The summary further shows that employers subject to unem ployment tax payments reached an all-time high, 36,807 in Decem ber, 1960, compared to 27,468 in December, 1959, The increase was mostly due to the new coverage which went into effect Jan. 1 1960. The Oregon State Employment Service made 384,728 placements during the 1960 calendar year in all categories of employment. The placements included 16,725 veter ans, 3,761 handicapped persons, 313,858 in seasonal agricultural jobs and 9,377 youths, 14,864 from 21 to 45, 14,318 from 46 to 65 and 546 over 65. Migrant workers hired through the employment service totaled 14,654 in 1960 as against 15,436 for 1959. The trend seems to be toward hiring of more local labor as mechaniza tion takes over and increases the need for more skilled workers. Seasonal work in the state em ployed a peak of 66,367 local work ers in 1960 compared to 51,266 in 1959. As the year neared the end, unemployment insurance pay ments increased perceptibly as expected.

A heavy falloff in employment in lumber ing, logging and allied industries during the last half of the year brought about a large part of the heavy claim load at year's end. Total benefit payments in lumbering, logging and allied in dustries reached 262.846 or J9.977,. 295 as against 559,989 or $18,493. 132 in all other industries during 1960.

The total unemployment tax col lected from employers in 1960 to taled $35,641,192 as against tha previous high in 1959 of $33, 909,413. The Oregon trust fund stood at $47,086,015 on Dec. 30, compared to $38,645,978 a year ago. The advisory council on unem ployment compensation met nine) times during the year. The coun cil's report to the commissioner was published in November, 1960, and transmitted to the governor.
