In Comptroller Post
WASHINGTON (APi-In an on
again, off-again bit of White
House byplay, President Kennedy
has named Chicago lawyer James
J. Saxon to replace Ray M. Gid
ney as comptroller of currency.
The appointment, announced
Wednesday, will become effective
Nov. 15.
Gidney. a Republican, has dis
agreed strongly with Atty Gen
Robert F. Kennedy, the presi
dent's brother, over antitrust pol
icy on bank mergers.
The White House announced
nominaion of Saxon, a Demo
crat Wednesday alternoon. A
spokesman said he understood
Gidney was stepping out under a
verbal agreement with Secreary
of the Treasury Douglas Dillon.
Less than two hours later, the
6 White House withdrew the nomi
nation. The Treasury Department
said it was all a mistake, that
the nomination had been sent to
the White House "as a result of
a clerical error in the rush at the
close of the session in Congress."
Still later, the White House
press secretary, Pierre Salinger,
summoned reporters back to the
Church Eyes

DETROIT (AP)- After putting
new steam into a move for Chris
tian reunion, the legislative ma
chinery of the Episcopal Church
today ground to a halt for a look
at some other kinds of machinery.
Nearly 1,000 representatives of
the church from across the coun
try bishops, pastors, theologians
and lay delegates headed into
the whirring labyrinth of Detroit's
industrial empire.
Their purpose: To hunt clues
on how the church can break out
of its parochial walls into thj
mass organized, mechanized
world that has engulfed much of
modern American life.
The tour came after the House
of Bishops Wednesday swept
through a dramatic measure
aimed at uniting a wide range of
American churches, including at
least four other denominations
It calls for talks with United
Presbyterians, Methodists, the
United Church of Christ, the Po
lish National Catholic Church and
possibly others to "explore the
possibilities of an eventual united
church, truly Catholic, truly re
formed and truly evangelical,
Altogether, the denominations
have about 20 million members.
White House and said Gidney is
resigning effective . Nov. 15 and
Saxon would succeed him in the
$20,500 job.
Gidney's term is not scheduled
to expire until 1963. Saxon will
be given a recess appointment to
finish out Gidney's term. The
nomination requires Senate ap
proval.
Some administration officials
had speculated that Gidney might
be persuaded to resign because
of his differences with the attor
ney general. Until Wednesday
there had been no indication that
he would quit.
j lie justice ueparimeni nas
filed court actions to overturn
several bank mergers approved
by Gidney.
The comptroller of the currency
must approve organization of new
national banks and all bank
mergers. He exercises general su
pervision over the operation of
national banks.
Saxon, 47, has been attorney for
the First National Bank of Chi-I
cago since 1956. Previously, he
had served as assistant general
counsel in the Washington office
of the American Bankers Associa
tion and worked 15 years in the
Treasury Department, stepping
out as assistant to the secretary
A native of Toledo. Ohio, Saxon

Suspended
Vsmael C. (Smiley Herrera,'
19-year-old Klamath Falls youth.
pleaded guilty to an assault and
battery charge Wednesday and
was given a suspended fine and
jail sentence by District Judge
Hal F. Coe.
Judge Coe assessed a $200 fine
and imposed a four-month jail
term but suspended both on the
condition that Herrera "obey all
city, state and federal laws." Her.
rera admitted beating his ex
wife, Delorcs, in July.
Another charge, contributing to
the dependency of .a minor, is
pending against the youth. His ex
wife also filed that charge, alleg
ing that Herrera didn't support his
child. His attorney, Arthur Bed
doe, has filed a demurrer on the
grounds of an insufficient com
plaint. Herrera was also involved in
an escapade over the weekend,
which was investigated by city
police. Herrera was treated early
Saturday morning at Klamath
Valley Hospital for an apparent
overdose of sleeping pills.
The youth is free on $400 bail
