'Self-Interest' Probed
In TFX Contract Award
WASHINGTON UPI - A Re
publican member said today that
a Senate investigating group is
making an inquiry into possible
self-interest" of civilian Penta
gon officials in the controversial
award of the TFX fighter plane
contract.
Sen. Karl Mundt. R S. D., said
one of those being checked is
Deputv Dclcn! Secretary Ros-
well Gilpatric.
Gilpatric told UPI meanwhile
that before taking his job at the
Pentagon lie severed all connec
tions with a New York law firm,

lett, a Washington correspondent
for the Chicago Sun-Times, say
ing that the Senate permanent in
vesications subcommittee is
looking into the relationship be
tween Gilpatric and the law firm
and General Dynamics.
Backs Gilpatric
Defense Secretary Robert S.
McNamara later Issued a state
ment voicing his "full confi
dence" in Gilpatric. The score
tary said tlie decision on the TFX
contract "was mine and I assume
full responsibility for it." He
said Gilpatric's "integrity and de
votion to public service are un
assailable."
Mundt said the subcommittee is
"checking on personal self-inter
est" of all civilian personnel in
Pentagon involved in award of
the multi-billion dollar contract to
General Dynamics.
Asked if Gilpatric was one ol
those being checked, Mundt said:
Two Circuit

ing conclusion and another got

County's two circuit courts early
Wednesday.
In Judge Vandenberg s court.
the state was expected to rest

In testimony during the Bark
ley trial early today, Virginia

"I am sure Gilpatric is one of
them. Certainly we want to get

Some Favored Boeing
The TFX contract was awarded
to General Dynamics although
some top uniformed military offi
cials favored giving it to the Boe
ing Aircraft Co. McNamara said
the choice of General Dynamics
to build the plane, which would
be used both by the Air Force
and Navy, would mean big sav
ings for the taxpayers.
Gilpatric said in his statement
that the New York law firm has
"nothing to do with any military
procurement activities" of Gener
al Dynamics or any of that firm's
divisions. He said the firm advis
es General Dynamics and other
companies on "corporate (man
cial matters."
Gilpatric said he told the Sen
ate Armed Services Committee
before taking the office he would
retire from the law firm "and I
will have no financial or other in
terests in it, except that I will be
paid sums of money that will rep
resent my interest in work that
was done before I left the firm

Shooting Of Florence Huitt
Described For City Police
'I was sitting on the daven
port with Florence when Zelma
walked in the door, pointed the
ifle at her, and fired."
This was a statement given to
city police by Otis Washington,
616 Commercial Street, as he de
scribed the shooting that took
place at that address at 7:05 p.m.
Tuesday in which Florence Baker
Huitt, 26, was mortally wounded
by a .308 caliber rifle bullet that
Washington said was fired by Zel
ma Joan Ochiho, 41, 336 Broad

The victim died at 7:50 a.m.
Wednesday in Klamath Valley
Hospital from the bullet wound
which she suffered in her left
thigh.
Exclusive Service Law
Praised By Utilities
SALEM (UPlt - The 1961 ex-
elusive service district law for
utilities, threatened with repeal,
was praised down the line Tues
day night by power, telephone
and gas utilities.
Even cooperatives that opposed
the idea in 1961 said it would be
a mistake to repeal the law now,
The law allowed utilities to di
vide up territory so that each
would serve an area exclusively.
The agreements then would be
ratified by the Public Utility Com
missioner.
A number of agreements have
been made under the 1961 law.
Before the House Committee on
Commerce and Utilities, however,
is a bill to repeal the 1961 law.
The sponsor, Rep. Richard Ey
mann, D-Marcola. said the 1961
law was eliminating competition
needed to keep rates down in the
power industry.
The utilities disagreed.
The arguments had the same
ring as 1961. The utilities said the
law was helping to eliminate un
necessary and costly duplication,

1953 DALLAS HIGHWAY P. O. BOX 2081, SALEM, ORE.
TELEPHONE (AREA CODE 503) 363-1933
Miss Ochiho was charged with
murder in the first degree this
morning.
The shooting was reported to
police by Eddie Dailey, 616 Com
mercial, Tuesday night.
When patrolmen arrived at the
scene the victim was lying half
slumped on the davenport and
conscious.
She told police she was reading
a paper on the davenport when all
at once her leg went numb. When
asked if she knew who fired the
shot, she told police "no."
In a statement made to police,
Dailey said he was in the kitchen
frying pork chops when he heard
a knock on the door. He said he
yelled "come in." and the next
and had worked well so far.
Public Utility Commissioner Jo
nel Hill said the law had been a
success and some duplication and
overlapping already had been
eliminated.
Committee members Beulah
Hand, D - Milwaukie, and Elmer
McClure, D - Milwaukie, pressed
Ihe witnesses as to whether rates
had dropped as a result of the
law.
The utilities conceded rates had
not gone down, but said elimin
ating duplication would help keep
rates lower in the future.
Edward Smith of the Interna
tional Brotherhood of Electrical
Workers said getting rid of over
lapping systems increased the
safety (actor for workmen.
Most of the utilities also opposed
a companion bill to remove cities
from the 1961 law.
Due to its exceptional ductil
ity, one pound of nickel can he
stretched into a fine wire 80
miles long.
Your Life wi

Interesting when
you retire at-
thing he heard was the shot
Dailey told police he turned
around and saw Miss Ochiho turn
ing to walk out the door. He said
he ran after her and grabbed tlie
rifle out of her hands.
Miss Ochiho was not at the
scene when police arrived. She
was arrested at 10:25 the same
evening and lodged in the city
jail.
The suspect wouldn't make any
statements to the police at that
time. According to the police she
hasn't,.volunteered any' informa
tion regarding the shooting.
Police said they had informa
tion that a young Indian girl
had been driving Miss Ochiho,
around town last night, but said
they haven't located her as of
this morning.
Police found one spent .308
cartridge outside the house un
der the steps at 616 Commercial
during their investigation of the
shooting. The .308 Savage rifle
that Dailey said he took from
the suspect had the serial num
ber, 1042506.
Miss Ochiho was on trial for
first degree murder of Bruce Mil
ler recently and was acquitted
by the jury.
Miss Huitt was taken to Klam
ath Valley Hospital immediately
after the shooting.
