0 o West Coast Organized Crime Less SEATTLE (API - U. S. Atty. Gen. Robert Kennedy says or ganized crime is less of a prob lem on the West Coast than in other parts of the United States. Kennedy arrived in Seattle Fri day for talks with Brock Adams, new U. S. attorney for Western Washington. In an interview he said: 'Organized crime is always a difficult problem in major popu lation centers. But I would say the West Coast has less of a prob lem in this area than any other area, including the East, Midwest and Southwest. "!f you're going to be successful In real law enforcement, it will depend on the general public taking an active interest. The people themselves will have to give support to honest local au thorities." Kennedy was unwilling to dis cuss Dave Beck, former chief of the Teamsters Union, or Jimmy Hoffa, Beck's successor. He ex plained he did not want to talk about them because "cases in volving both are still in the courts." $3 Million To Charity, Not To Wife ..,. . IM. GRADUATES Capt. J.

(API Hotelman Khadouri Chaachou made plans today to give his last $3 million to charity to keep it: from his common-law wife and "unscrupulous people." Since 1932 Chaachou has been fighting a divorce action brought by Mrs. Fredericka Phillips Chaa chou, whom he claims he never married but to whom the court ordered him to pay $161,250 in cash and $750 a month. Chaachou said the woman "told me she had a vision that I was drowning and the Lord told her to go catch Chaachou." Another vision told her to end their rela tionship 10 years later, he said ,' At court hearings, Chaachou testified that Mrs. Phillips had come to him "in the capacity of everything housekeeper, host ess, manager, entertainer." She testified that they had lived as husband and wife and that he had invited her to leave. Some 23 lawyers represented Chaachou during the long and complex hearings which featured everything from hypnotism to testimony by a faith healer. "It's not the alimony," Chaa chou told reporters Friday. "Ever since all the publicity, folks think I'm rich and ready to be taken. They re like hungry dogs. Every- Scenic Area Plans Vary PORTLAND AP Contrast ings views on development of two scenic areas in Oregon were pre sented Friday at a House Agri culture Subcommittee hearing in Portland. there were scores of witnesses, but the clashing ideas of two Ore-1 gon politicians on the Oregon Dunes area drew most of the attention. Sen. Maurine Neuberger, D-Ore. has introduced a bill which would create a National Park in the area under administration of the U.S. National Park Service. Rep. Edwin Durno, R-Ore.. sponsors a program which would set aside portions of the Dunes area as a national shorelands to be administered by the U.S Forest Service, which favors mul' tiple use. Multiple use is the concept of allowing economic development along with recreational use of scenic areas. Durno appeared in support of his view. Myron'Katz, a research assistant to Mrs. Neuberger, read her statement to the committee opposing Durno's view. State Sen. Robert Straub, D- Eugene. spoke in favor of limit ing the Waldo Lake area to rec reational use. Dan P. Allen, rep presenting Gov. Mark Hatfield and the state natural resources committee, said he favored forest service management of the land. 3,000 Teen-agers Riot In Los Angeles Area ALHAMBRA, Calif. 1UPH -Four riots involving possibly as many as 3,000 teen-agers were un derway early Saturday in this sub urban Los Angeles community, police reported. The California Highway Patrol rushed in 15 radio cars to help block off the riot area and 50 sheriff's units from the Los An geles area were reported to be assisting Alhambra police. They broke out about the same time," said one Alhambra police man. Another said the police switchboard was "lit up like a Christmas tree." "It'll probably be in the wee hours of the morning before we're through booking suspects," said another busy officer. Police were not certain what touched off the riots, but specu lated they might have been the aftermath of the Monrovia-Alham-bra high school football game held earlier in the evening. Asked if there had been any injuries or deatns, one olticer said he suspected someone had been injured because "one sus pect's shirt was bloody." Meanwhile, in East Los An geles, about 13 miles away, an estimated 50 juveniles staged a wild battle in which several shots were fired, police reported. Officiers said the teen-agers were holed up in the city housing authority's William Mead homes. It was not immediately deter mined whether anyone had been shot. Alhambra police said the riots broke out shortly after midnight at a small drive-in restaurant. It spread rapidly along a five block area. Hundreds of police augmented by off-duty officers and reserves poured into the area from the surrounding communities of San Gabriel, South San Gabriel, Pasa dena, South Pasadena, Los Ange les and Monterey Park. All drive-in restaurants in the area were closed by officers who then blocked off the main boule vards in the area, bottling the DENNIS THE MENACE" iHERALiANiN'Ews,Kiam!,",Fa"s or''gnD O o Sunday, October f, 1M1 PACE S-A juveniles into a pocket where they were kept until buses could take them to police headquarters for booking on a "variety of charges. "We had 100 kids fighting 10 cops." said one breathless po liceman. "It was spontaneous. We don't know what started it. It just broke out up and down the street." Another officer said the riot had been building up for some time. He said the youths for weeks had been driving up and down the highways in auto caravans. ' I'M GONNA GO ON A DIET, TOO.

SAN FRANCISCO (UPI Thel Western Pacific Railroad "just can t slay independent forever," according to Earnest S, Marsh, president of the Santa Fe Rail way. t Marsh, a Chicago executive, un derwent a five-hour cross-exam-l uialion Friday at hearings of the Interstate Commerce Commission over the battle between Santa Fe and Southern Pacific for control of the Western Pacific. The question of Western Pad fic's independence, Marsh said, was determined last Oct. 12 when Southern Pacific disclosed it was out to gain control. "We're dealing with a long- range problem here, he said. "If both applications are denied it is my opinion that Western Pacific will again be a candidate for mer-j ger wilh someone sometime in the near future." The said this was because WP can not remain "a real competi tive match for the Southern Pacific." Marsh was hammered from1 both sides on the issue of how Healthy SEPTIC TANKS CESSPOOLS AND DRAINS Us.

Buland, chief counsel for Southern Pacific, Marsh em phatically denied that Santa Fo; hopes to divert traffic from WP to its Arizona gateway route "all the way" to Chicago. He said Santa Fe only sought control over Western Pacific "to protect our competitive position in Northern California." He noted that in the three rail roads' Northern California service area, SP handles 75 per cent of all the freight, WP handles 17 per cent, while Santa Fe only 8 per cent. "It's not so much a question ol the 8 per cent competing with the 17," said Marsh, "but whether the 8 and 17 can supply a little com petition for the 75." But attorneys representing the status quo position of continued in dependence obtained admissions from Marsh as they had earlier from Southern Pacific executives that proposed consolidations of facilities could be effected by ne gotiation and without control. "I have heard you and Mr. Bus- sell (president of Southern Paci fic) say very solemnly that West ern Pacific must lost its indepen dence, as if that were ordained from the heavens," Calvin L. Rampston of the Utah Citizens Rate Association commented sar castically. Rampton said that if the ICC made a mistake in turning the two railroads down, the mistake could be rectified. But once West ern Pacific is taken over, he sug gested that It would be more dif ficult to make it independent again. Klaitiafh Memorial Park Perpetual Care . . .

Fake Accident Trial Recesses PORTLAND IAP) - The trial of ten persons accused of using the mails to defraud insurance companies by staging fake auto mobile accidents was in recess today. It will reconvene at 9:30 a.m. Monday. Nine of the defendants are still free on bail after U.S. Dist. Judge Charles L. Powell kept under advisement a motion by govern ment attorneys to revoke bail and send the defendants back to jail. The motion came after a wife of one of the witnesses said she had received a threatening tele phone call. Powell said he did not think he would grant the motion unless a similar incident hap pened in the future. George James Barnard, one of the defendants Is in custody of the U.S. marshal, charged with intimidating witnesses. union which will expire simulta neously in September, 1964.

"The Lovers." a French movie portraying adultery, was sched uled at the Paramount Theater after the Oregon Supreme Court had thrown out the conviction of a theater manager w ho had shown the film earlier. Portland mayor Terry Schrunk criticized the court's action and asked Dist. Atty. Charles Ray mond to file charges based on a new state law against obscenity. Raymond saw the movie, then obtained an indictment from a grand jury. Arrested in the raid were M M, Mesher. theater general manager, and projectionist Lloyd Robinson. Both posted $1,000 bail. Raymond said they would be brought before circuit court next week. " Mesher said his attorneys would protest the action. Meanwhile. Mesher's brother fton. who manages the theater, scheduled a showing of "Not To night Henry." an adult film deal ing with nudism. He said it was more revealing than "The Lovers," but had pas sed the censors.
