(l)I'H Police today sought a thief who stole about $25,000 worth of uncut gem's from Rutgers University, diich If cut correctly could be Worth $100,000. 'One of the slones was a six sided emerald of several hundred karats, for which Rutgers once had been offered $14,000. The stone, about 1.5 inches wide, is the largest emerald ever taken from the Muzo mines In Colombia, South America. Professor Helgl Johnson of the university Geology Department said, "A representative of the mine once Jokingly said the stone could be cut Into $60,000 worth o( em eralds. It wouldn't bo fair to quote him as saying thai, because lie was joking, but the stone was worth a considerable amount of money." The emerald was a part of the Albert Chester collection, willed to the university 60 years ago by tile famed geologist's widow. Another of the missing stones is an aquamarine worth about $, 0W in its uncut state. Johnson said he discovered an unknown number of stones missing from mineral cases in the un guarded Rutgers University mu soum Friday. WASHINGTON lUPIl - Health officials in six cities Saturday searched grocery market slielves for contaminated, "highly danger ous" tuna fish labeled "kosher for Passover" under the Dagim Ta horin brand. The Food and Drug Administra tion (FDA I Friday warned con-' sumcrs not to eat any tuna fish from cans bearing a red and white label reading in part "Dagim white tuna-kosher for Passover net wt. 7 oz." or those with blue and white labels of the Da gim company. Each suspect can is embossed with the codes "WY2" or "WY3", the FDA said. Shipments from the Brooklyn distributor have been delivered in New York, Pitts burgh, Chicago, Cleveland, Detroit and Augusta, Ga. FDA Commissioner George P. Larrick said the tuna was packed by the Washington Packing Corp San Francisco, Calif. This was the same firm which packed the tuna that was found contaminated and responsible for the deaths of two Detroit women in March. An FDA spokesman urged the public to examine all cans of tuna for the codes, especially cans sold in stores dealing in kosher foods. FDA officials said it was pos sible, but unlikely, that shipments of the contaminated tuna went to other cities. The FDA said that since the Michigan incident, it has been examining tuna fish canned by the Washington Packing Co. "So far, contamination has been found only in defective cans those bulg ing or leaking," it said. The Detroit women Mrs, Mar garet McCarthy, 39, and Mrs. Col- lctte Brawn, 37 died, Larrick said from eating tuna contaminated with type E botulinus toxin. That particular tuna had been distributed by the A&P Co. The FDA warning Friday brought immediate, action from health officials in the six cities. New York: Dagim Tahorin no tified its customers not to sell any of the tuna fish bearing the "WY3" code. Tuna cans marked with the number had been deliv ered to 111 grocers in the city. Health officials said more than 2,500 cases of the fish already had been seized. Pittsburgh: Local FDA officials said the only local distributor, Joseph Frishman, had sold 30 per sons cans that might have been contaminated and that at least half the customers had been alerted. Chicago: Local Board of Health officials seized 15 cases contain ing 720 cans of the suspect tuna, but records showed that three cases containing 144 cans had been sold. Officials notified Jewish con gregations in the area to be on the lookout for the cans and to hand them over to health author ities. Cleveland: The FDA located one store In the area which had sold 148 cans of the possibly contami nated tuna, but no food poison ing had been reported. Detroit: Health officials nounced that all suspected cans of the tuna will be pulled off the shelves during a weekend hunt Augusta, Ga.: Grocers reported they had warned their customers of the potential danger in con suming the particular brand of tuna, and removed supplies from view. 7'. , j : i'f.K: tevfcV frCL' 'tS'-.4s SB mini . wTmIhhhwJ JAMES BLAIR James Blair Dies At 88 James Blair, a resident of Klnmath Falls since 1908, died Saturday, April 13, about 4 a.m. in Klamuth Valley Hospital.

Here Lee d out ad- WASH1NGTON UPI -The United Stales expects a 10-nation NATO nuclear force to be opera tional under the supreme Allied commander in Europe, U. S. Gen. Lyman L. Lemnitzer, within a year, it was disclosed Saturday. It will be known as the "Inter- Allied Nuclear Force" ' (1ANF), U. S. sources said. It will consist of British nuclear bombers, three U. S. Polaris missile submarines, and striking elements of eight other NATO countries which have or arc to receive American atomic weapons to arm their forces in event of war. The French contribution will be limited to two fighter-bomber squadrons based in Germany President Charles de Gaulle re fuses to permit any U. S. nuclear weapons on French soil. Council Meeting Upcoming Composition of the IANF was among the subjects discussed by Secretary of Slate Deau Rusk and Allied representatives in Paris earlier this week. Gen. Lem nitzer's staff has been given the job of working out coordination and target ing arrangements. The NATO council meeting in Ottawa. Canada, in late May is expected to ratify the arrangements. I'.

HATHAWAY Auditing Bookkeeping 120 N. 10th TU 4-5473 clear up public confusion over NATO nuclear planning, said the IANF was entirely separate rom the "multilateral NATO nuclear force" now under discussion. If this latter force ever comes into being, it will be a sort of NATO navy paid for and manned by personnel from as many countries as wisli to contribute men and money. It, too, would be under the supreme Allied commander. Russia has protested all NATO nuclear force planning as likely to increase the peril of nuclear war. The United States, after dis cussing the Soviet protest with other allies, is expected within the next week to reject the complaint. U. S. officials view creation of the IANF as being principally a military rather than political af fair, since it is being put together under existing treaty arrange ments. Contributions Agreed The British and American con tributions were agreed upon by President Kennedy and Prime Minister Harold Macmillan at their Nassau meeting in Decem ber. At that time the United States planned to assign some of its strategic bombers to the force but recently decided to substitute the three Polaris submarines. J.
