i. FBI Chief Hits Apathy As Causing Crime Rise WASHINGTON (UPJ)-FBI Di- r1or J. Edgar Hoover blames! puqlic apathy rather than police inefficiency for the continued rise in the national crime rate. There has been a 70 per cent increase in serious offenses in thf United States during the past 10 years, Hoover said, despite better criminal detection in spotting of-fenders. '.'A lack of public interest and Mtpport, particularly with regard tn jaw enforcement and the ad ministration of justice, underlies! America's rising crime problem, the top G-man said. In an exclusive interview with United Press International, Hoover lopked back on a career as head of- the federal Bureau of Inves-1 Auto Crash Injures 6 FOREST GROVE (UPII - Six persons were injured, one criti cally, in a head-on auto crash be tween Forest Grove and Gales Creek Sunday. Five of the Injured were stu dents and a counselor at Pacific University returning from an out ing at the coast. , Dinah Lee, 18, of Glendale was! reported in critical condition at Tuality Community Hospital in Hillsboro. . Reported In good condition were Donald W. Meek., 20, Calrton; Da vid S pi da I, 22, Gaston; Sally Hornecker. 29, Forest Grove; Rog er Berthold, 20, San Jose, Calif., and James C. Thompson, 20, Portland. Sheriff's Deputy Patrick Cahill said Thompson was alone In his car, which collided with one driv en by Meek. The crash occurred in the rain. ligation that spans an era from beer barons to atomic spies. Now 68. Hoover is little changed since May 10, 1924, when he took over the Justice Department's old Bureau of Investigation. He is a man dedicated to his job, and has done it well enough to last through six administra tions. He has been threatened by the likes of gunman Alvin Karpis, but he captured Karpis himself "I accepted Kapris' threat as , pei'Mjiial challenge, " Hoover said. When he is not directing opera tions against spies, murderii, kid napers, or any of a multitude of crimes that fall under FBI juris diction, Hoover relaxes in his garden. Said Hoover: "If a man is to maintain bis balance and proper perspective in life, it is essential that he reserve a few hours each week to pursue a hobby, to read good books, to enjoy the company of family and friends, and to commune with God." The FBI under Hoover has come a long way since It was an ob scure bureau in the Justice I)c partmcnt with a few hundred agents. Now its network stretches from Alaska to Puerto Rico, and more than 6,000 men carry the badge of a special agent of the FBI. But Hoover is not interested in extending his agency's power. There are very definite limitations on the FBl s authority. Hoover said, and I consider all of them to be most essential." Hoover gives credit to President Franklin D. Roosevelt for the pre sent status of the FBI. It was Roosevelt who made the most significant addition to FBI jurisdiction. Hoover said. In 19.19, he named the FBI the civilian in vestigative agency primarily re sponsible for safeguarding Ameri ca internal security. PAGE 1 HKItAI.D AND NKWS.

Senate Subcommittee Hears Testimony On Dunes Park EUGENE IUPP - A Senate Interior subcommittee Saturday heard testimony for and against Sen. Maurine Neubcrger's pro posed bill calling for a national .seashore at the Oregon Dunes. Sen. Ixe Metcalf, D - Mont., chairman of the hearing, heard two hours of testimony from oppo nents, two hours of discussion and two hours from proponents. Another hearing is scheduled in Washington, D.C., Wednesday on the proposed 42.000 acre park near Florence. Mis. Vera Springer, Sen. Neu bcrger's Portland representative, indicated at the outset of the hearing that the Democratic sen atnr feels the boundaries of the proposed park are still flexible. Hep. Robert Duncan, D-Ore., has introduced a House bill with smaller proposed boundaries. Mrs. Springer noted also the diflerence between national parks and national seashores, which she said is a point of misunderstanding. She said national parks are set iside to preserve the beauty of an area and often do not offer maximum use or recreation. But. national seashores, she said, are set aside for maximum use. Coos Hay Testimony Businessmen and officials of Coos County and the cities of Coos Bay and North Bend tcstilied they were opposed to a national sea shore park that would include in (hislrial sites and industrial water supply. Tom O'Dwyer, North Bend, sorted the national seashore con cept Is not compatible with indus trial use. He said loss of the water for future forest products' industries could be a tragic blow to the communities. Similar statements were placed in the hearing record by other opponents who object to a south park boundary near Coos Bay and the north boundary near Flor ence. Support for the seashore came from Bend publisher Robert Chan dler, former congressman Charles Porter of Eugene, and James Monte, Portland, chairman of the Committee for the Oregon Dunes. They (the dunes) are unique on the North American continent and they should be preserved, Chandler said. Monte said Oregon lacks well rounded resort areas and the dunes could fill this need. Dan Allen appeared or Gov. Mark Hatfield and the Oregon Natural Resources Board. He said the state favors federal develop ment of the dunes and would be willing to turn over the property in the area.

(UPD - Moonty Woolley, the bearded actor famed as "The Man Who Came to Din ner," died today in Albany Medi cal Center Hospital. He was 74. Woolley had been on the critical list since April 6 with a heart ailment. He was moved to the medical center from Saratoga Hospital about 30 miles north of lie re. He had lived in Saratoga Springs, N.Y., for the past few years. Born Edgar Montillion Woolley, in New York City, he taught (or 12 years al his alma maler, Yale, before heading to Broadway. i 'fcfciJllilillima' tfcl MONTY WOOLLEY Because of hi chin fohauc, he was nicknamed "The Beard." His most famous role was as Sheridan Whiteside in " flic Man Who tame to Dinner." He oriBinated the role on Broadway and later portrayed Whiteside in the movie version ol the play. It was a role Woolley perpetuat ed for vears to the delight of movie, radio and television au diences that of a white-bearded patriarch, with fierce blue eyes, at limes clenching a cigarette holder between his teeth. Woolley built his reputation as l irascible curmudgeon on the stage and screen. Hut he insisted he actually was "mild-mannered and easy to get along w ith " That w as in 1!.V. w hen he came to Hollywood to play Omar the tent maker in "Kismet." his last major venture in the movies I- fore retiring to New York. Woolley. born Aug. 17, 1888, en joyed a long success as a dis tinguished actor on stage and screen in spite of, or perhaps be cause of, his long and unusual beard. "The Beard" first appeared in chin foliage in the Broadway hit On Your Toes." in 11)29. From then on, despite pleas of some film producers, he refused to shave off the magnificent beard and wore it in such films as "The Man Who Came to Dinner," which he repeated his 1930 stage role that brought him his greatest success. The part was one of a self-centered, booming voiced ego- centric who resembled in part famed theatrical critic and per sonality of the day, Alexander W'ollcotl. Editor's Note: This Is the first of a four part series by I' Analyst Harry' Ferguson who dls. cusses the drug picture. By HARRY FERGUSON L'nlted Press International WASHINGTON (UPI) Red China's newest strategy in the cold war is to try to flood the world with narcotics. Before things become too melo dramatic it should be explained there are no Ited Chinese agents lurking in the White House bush es trying to slip opium tablets into President Kennedy's break fast coffee. What the Chinese Reds are after is foreign exchange money from other countries which can he used to buy such things as tractors and bulldozers. They have vast farms on which the poppy is cultivated, and from the poppy comes opium. From opium. in turn, come morphine and her oin and from them stem most of the trouble the United States is having today with drug addiction. It works like this: 'Not long ago an agent of the Federal Bureau of Narcotics tipped off govern ment officials in Thailand that if they would go to a certain place at a certain ' time they would find something interesting. Whatj they found was tw o .tons of opium which they seized. Takes Devious Route "The source of this," says Hen ry L. Giordano, U.S. commission er of narcotics, "is orimarilv from Yunnan Province of Commu nist China. Some of it comes from Burma the Shan stales of Burma but most of it is moving out of Yunnan Province through Thailand, through Laos, Vietnam. into Hung Kong. Singapore, Japan and some of it eventuallytreach ing the United States in the form of heroin." America is the top-priority mar ket for drug smugglers. No opium is produced in this country and there are a sizeable number of addicts with money to spend to case their craving and pain Agents of the Narcotics Bureau and the customs men are wise and vigilant In catching smug glers, but they are like persons trying to push back the ocean tides with their bare hands. To dry up narcotics smuggling the clothing of every person and every piece of baggage that goes through the nation's ports and air ports would have to be searched. Everybody airline pilots, stew ardesses, tourists, sailors from all ships and even foreign diplomats would have to be considered guilty until proved innocent. Ev- ly piece of mall from aoroaa would have to be opened. It is small wonder that the Treasury Department estimates only five per cent of the drugs smuggled in this country are seized at the ports of entry. Small Federal Budget The Federal Narcotics Bureau has an annual budget of about S') million, and that practically makes them paupers in a city where an agency dealing in mil lions instead of billions automat ically becomes a second class cit izen. It can deploy only mi agents in this country and abroad, although it works closely with stale agencies, local police and the customs agents. The fantastic profit to be made out of narcotics in this country enlists the best brains of the un derworld. Recently the bureau broke up a ring that bad been smuggling drugs into the United Slates since 1949, and there was evidence to show that the total over the years was 2,200 pounds of pure heroin. Charles Siragusa. deputy narcotics commissioner, computed the retail value of it at S3B0 million. Next to a Central Intelligence agent operating behind the Iron Curtain, a Narcotics Bureau man is in more peril than any em ploye' of the federal investigative bureaus. Sometimes he is dealing with men half crazed by drugs His assignment is not only to in vestigate but bring in the evi dence and that means he has to infiltrate the underworld and stay underground until he can get a peddler to sell him some narcot ics. Some agents stay under ground for as long as 18 months. Spectacular Results Sometimes the results ace spec tacular as in what the bureau calls "The Case of the Guatemal an Ambassador." It resulted in the largest single seizure of her oin in the history of the Nar cotics Bureau. Georce H. Gaffney.'now assist- nn t ii nnrmticK commissioner. u in eharae of the New York loffice and led the agents who fi- nally smashed the ring, tie sian ed out on a tip from Marseilles. Fiance, where agents regularly rannriivt lartfe shiDments of her- nin were en route to New York The problem was that the ship ments never seemea 10 mine ,,r 1 li;t not through all the channels the agents checked. Somebody starieu going ovci i he nasseneer lists of the planes and ships arriving in New York from Europe. It deveiopea mai a man named Mauricio Rosal had been making frequent flights to New York. It also developed that ho was fullv accredited as the Guatemalan ambassador to Bel gium and travelled or. a diplo matic passport which made him immune to search and seizure. Trailed Suspect On Oct. 30. I960. Rosal landed at Idlewild Airport from a Pan- American jet liner, uanney u-airhed him do it and found out that the ambassador was in tran sit to Guatemala. "When he cancelled his ticket to Guatemala and bought one back to Belgium,"' Gaffney said, "I decided he was not on diplo matic business and that I would take a chance." Rosal got into a taxi with an other man. Two men in a statin wagon followed the cab, and Gall. ney and his men followed all four, Thev made the arrest on the lon er East Side and in the three suitcases Rosal was carrying they found 160 pounds of heroin worth about $4 million. A court ruling that diplomatic immunity did not apply in this case because the ambassador was not accredited to the United States made it possi ble to indict Rosal and he now serving 15 Vears in prison. Gaffney found something else in the suit cases $26,000 w hich was Rosal's fee for a transatlantic flight. Tomorrow The addict and how he gets that way. . Seek Oath Test MOSCOW, Idaho IUPD- Sixty, four University of Idaho faculty members were circulating peti tions today seeking support from their colleagues for a test of the state's new loyalty oath. The American Association of University Professors lAAL'Pi chapter at Idaho State in Poca tello announced earlier it would seek a court test of the constitu tionality of the oath. The Idaho chapter voted unani mously to join the action. Robert A. Postweiler, chairman of the AAUP chapter here, said support so far had been "way above our expectations." ROCK!
