British Expecting Big Rush Of US Tourists LONDON (UPI The bad newsisels sprouts, traffic moving for Washington today is that a the wronc side of the street or record amount of tourist gold is, how much to tin when the bill is expected to flow from America into Britain this year. The British Travel and Holiday Association, the voice of experi ence and authority, has spoken. The conclusion is that President Kennedy's campaign to protect the dollar by reversing the flow of tourist traffic across the Atlan tic may succeed in the long run, but not in 1961. The metal busts of Shakespeare are being polished at Stratford-Upon-Avon; hotels are checking their hot water systems; chefs are practicing how to cook the roast beef rare; and the word is being passed that a man wearing a ten-gallon hat is not invariably from Texas because he may .be from Oklahoma. Experience has taught the British that of all tourists the Americans are the most active and ask the most questions. The terrors of rain, fog, brus- Two Die In Fort Lewis Plane Crash FT. LEWIS, Wash. (Al'i -Two military men were killed Sunday when two light planes collided ever the Ft. Lewis military reservation. The victims, both occupants of one of the planes, were Set. Rob ert Modrow. 39, Tillicum, Wash., and 1st Lt. Enrique Alata, 27, El Paso, Tex. Ft. Lewis authorities said two men in the second plane managed to land safely and escaped injury. They were identified as Lt. Col. E. L. Lewis, a doctor, and 2nd Lt. Eric Lorentzen. After the collision, Lewis ra- dioed for a helicopter and when his own plane made it safely down boarded the 'copter and flew to the crash scene to offer his services. Lewis told investigators he was coming in for a landing about three miles from an airport and was about 1,100 feet up, going 110 miles an hour when the plane collided with one ascending after takeoff. Lewis said he tried to turn to avoid the plane but the left wing of ..the craft hit the side of his plane. Salem Four Wins Title FOREST GROVE, Ore. AP The mellow tones of the Capitol Chordsmen of Salem earned them 400 silver dollars here Saturday night as they won the champion ship at the All-Northwest Barber shop Ballad Contest. The Chordsmen ended the regu lar competition in a tie with the Four-Do-Matics of Seattle, b u t took the top prize in a singolf with their rendition of "The Girl That I Marry." The Four-Do-Matics got $250 for their second place finish. The Gem Dandies of Boise, Idaho, the defending cham pions, finished third. The singing was the highlight of this city's annual Gay Nineties Festival. Things weren't so gay, though, for the big parade Satur day. Drenching rain, mixed with snow, fell as Die parade gol un derway. A number of marching units refused to march. The spec tators that stuck around watched mostly from doorways. two pounds, six, three an a ha penny cannot stay them from their appointed rounds. The Travel ard Holidays Asso ciation, an official organization supported by the government, is willing to lay money on the line that 1961 will be a record tourist year. It has dune so by increasing tne number of tourist guides who are listed in the official register and are entitled to wear badges. Alter a period of training 32 candidates were allowed to take the final examination. Sixteen passed, and there now are 384 registered guides 249 men and 135 women.

Tax Package For Business WASHINGTON (L'PD The ad ministration is putting together a tax package which if enacted would give business more than $1 billion in tax credits, to en courage investment in new pro duction facilities. To recover revenues that would be lost under the proposal, the Treasury is giving strong consid eration to asking that Congress knock out the present special allowances for income from stock j dividends. No general program of tax re form or relief is scheduled for this year by President Kennedy Officials feel the legislative calen dar is too crowded. Accordingly, the White - House plans to ask only for what it considers "must" tax legislation. Kennedy already has put stimu lation of investment in this cale- HERALD AND NEWS.

Some 20,000 face sketches and a nationwide alarm were issued for the man who rented the $8-a- week trash-littered room under the name of Fred Thompson. He was described as 5-3 tall, sandy haired and in his early fifties. He was last seen Wednesday one hour before Googie disappeared while playing in front of her uncle's apartment house two blocks from Thompson's room, touching off one of the most in tensive searches in the city's history. Acting Chief of Detectives Rob ert Gallati said, "We feel very, encouraged." Police scoured the run-down1 Manhattan neighborhood with sketches of Thompson in a hunt for acquaintances. One report said persons in two bars identified him and described him as a troublemaker. Police have good Eisenhower Disavows Statements By Mundt WASHINGTON (AP) Former President Dwiglit D. Eisenhower Sunday night disavowed as in accurate and regrettable a fellow Republican's statement that Ei senhower is critical of the direc tion President Kennedy's adminis tration is taking. Sen. Karl E. Mundt, . R-S.D.,, talked with Eisenhower for an hour recently at his Palm Springs, Calif., vacation spot. In a news letter he sends to constituents. Mundt Sunday gave his impres sion of Eisenhower's views. He is critical of the tendencies thus far evidenced by the JFK administration too much left of center; too partisan; too slanted toward programs supported by union bossism," Munqt wrote. Mincing no words, Eisenhower issued this disavowal through a secretary: "Sen. Mundt's statement as re ported to me Sunday evening does not accurately describe either my- views on public allairs or my personal plans, and I very much regret its issuance. The senator evidently intended to repeat in detail our private and purely social conversation, but his recollection of the many subjects mentioned and his interpretations differ markedly from my own. "Especially I regret the assess ment attributed to me of the tion and on prior occasion I have expressed opposition to certain of the pledges in the platform adopt ed in Los Angeles, I have like wise expressed the earnest hope of every loyal American that the future actions of the new adminis tration will promote the over-all welfare of the United States." Mi'ndt could not be reached Sunday night for comment on Ei senhower's statement. BULL STORY OSWEGO, 111. tUPI) - George Baird, 32, of Yorkville, told police he was driving about 35 miles an hour Saturday when his compact car hit a bull on the highway, causing about $200 damage to the car. Baird said the bull ambled off unhurt. fingerprints from more than 40 beer cans that littered his room. The pretty blonde girl was found by detectives who broke down the door of the rooming house flat after another tenant in the building complained of an odor coming" from the room in which Thompson rented Feb. 17 paying in advance. Googie had been sexually mo lested and was killed the day she disappeared, the medical exam iner said. Her beaten, twisted body was lying on an iron poster bed, partly covered with a sheet and a dark red quilt. Her under wear and purple snowsuit had been ripped off and tossed on the floor, but she stul was wearing a green dress.

Girl Tries To See Kennedy GREENEVILLE, Tenn. AP- A girl who wanted to sec Presi dent Kennedy sayed $20 from' her school lunch allowance and went to the White House. Shortly after daylight Sunday. White House guards said Kay Eichenberry, 14, of Greeneville. appeared at the gates and asked to see the President. When the guard said the Presi dent wasn't at home, Kay said she would wait. The guard called police, who located the runaway girl on a nearby park bench and persuaded her u help them con tact her parents. Kay's parents, Mr. and Mrs. L. J. Eichenberry, said she told them she was going to the library to return some books, then board ed a bus for the nation's capital Kay's father, a Magnavox Co. executive, told neighbors before he and Mrs. Eichenberry left by plane for Washington that he would try to arrange for Kay tu see the President before they re turn home. investment rather than allowing more generous tax deductions for depreciation. They said the credit method was more likely to gen-; erato extra investment. The amount of tax savings would depend on how much busi nessmen take advantage of the plan and what limit, if any, the government puts on it. Treasury tax experts think chances are ;mod it would be worth more than $1 billion a year to industry.
