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."

MIAMI BEACH. Fla. (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.

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

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.

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

much control Santa Fe sought ov
er Western Pacific.
Under cross-examination by
George L. 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.

Film Shown;
2 Arrested
PORTLAND (AP) Controver
sy over the motion picture, "The
Lovers," reached a peak Friday
when police raided a downtown
theater, arrested the general
manager and projectionisl, and
confiscated the film.
"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.
"Not Tonight Henry was
shown Friday night in place of
"The Lovers."
