Texas Plans To Execute First Woman HUNTSVILLE, Tex. (UPI I - The state of Texas, barring an eleventh hour reprieve, will exe cute its first woman in 99 years a few minutes after midnight to night. She will be the first wom an to die in the Texas electric chair. She is Carolyn Ann Lima, 20, a prostitute who helped her boy friend in the summer of 1960 shoot Houston real estate man Fred Tones during a sex parly in Tones' office and burn the body in a vacant lot. The boy friend, Douglas Ashley 23, a female impersonator, will precede Miss Lima to the elec tric chair in Huntsville Slate Prison. Texas 'has only one elec tric chair. . Miss Lima promised to march to her death "holding my head high." She promised to show the execution party that she can face the chair better than any man. Court Refuses Plra At last report, however, Ashley appeared to be holding up better. When a woman prison official told Miss Lima Thursday night that three U.S. Supreme Court justices had turned down a plea for a stay of execution, she crushed a hand kerchief over her mouth. She managed, however, not to break down. When Ashley got the same news, he laughed. 'Well, right now we're down to the deadline," he said. "But .1 don't look for a 50-50 chance Supreme Court Justices Hugo Black and William J. Brcnnan re jected a pica for stays of execu tion Thursday. Justice Arthur Goldberg turned down the plea without prejudice. Should Krflle Plea Goldberg said lawyers for Ash ley and Miss Lima should rcfilc their plea in U.S. District Court Houston. If they fail there, they will go to the U.S. Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals. If the appellate court rejects the plea and it has in tlie past ille lawyers can then go back to Goldberg. "1 have sinned." Miss Lima said in an earlier, interview the Lord wants me. 1 w ill be ready Astoria 48 40 .98 Baker 56 36 .03 Brookings 51 45 .69 Medford 56 42 .03 Newport 51 43 . 1.12 N.

Mc.Namara said in congressional testimony re leased today that he was "not disturbed " by the Russian arms remaining in Cuba. Rather, the secretary told Con gress, political ana economic dis satisfaction in Latin America is more of a threat to the security of the area. This is the very great, threat. I believe, to the hemisphere and to the security and stability of the governments in this hemi sphere." . In other testimony before the House Appropriations Committee! he gave in February, McNamara spokesman for government econ omy has recommended a "mini mum" cut of f7.1 billion in Presi dent Kennedy's proposed Ml bil lion budget.

Research: A U.S. Chamber of Cdmmerce spokesman said the government's use of two-thirds of the nation's research and develop ment capacity is a potential cause of unemployment and a drag on economic productivity. Helge Hoist told the House-Senate Joint Eco nomic Committee in prepared tes timony that U.S. research for "ci- said he would rather have the de-pvilian purposes" is below -what is fense budget cut by a billion dol lars than the foreign aid appropri ation request. , But, the secretary said, he could see no area in which his depart ment's requested $51 billion budg et could be reduced.
