Union Car bide weakened In the chemicals but Diamond Alakli moved higher. Wall Street Cliattrr NEW YORK (UPII Rov 3ra dy of J. W. Sparks 4 Co. believes tlio next upward move will be led by secondary and possibly spec ulative securities. It is Brady's impression that the more lucrative gains over the coming months may be shown by the general list rather than (lie better grade issues. "However," Brady says, "with the absence of leadership, pressure on blue chip and quality issues and re cent weakness in a number of growth stocks, wo feel it pru dent to await a better market climate before making any near term trading recommendations." Clark, Dodge & Co. Miys that the recent break in the market does not necessarily mean that stocks are in for a full-fledged correction. It sees it more as a clean up of the stalemate of the past two months. International Statistical Bureau Inc. notes that life insurance companies operations nave shown a most favorable trend. It says premiums are expected to show improvement as a result of expanding population, gains in in come, and a favorable mortality rate. "While competition from other insurance companies acci dent, casualty will gain, life in surance companies at this time continue favorably situated for long-term growth," the company says.

Earlier this year, Hixson and Chocktoot were indicted by the grand jury for the larceny of two horses belonging to a Bealty rancher. They were convicted by a ciricuit court jury June 9 and June 12 were sentenced to the prison terms at the peniten tiary. The attorney for the two men - 'states four reasons why his clients should be allowed a new trial. First, he charges that the dis trict attorney improperly made mention of the criminal records of the two defendants Second, the district attorney im properly argued to the jury con cerning the failure of the code- fendant, Chocktoot, to allow his wife to testify, which right is guaranteed by the laws of this state, the motion states. The request states further that the district attorney improperly referred to a statement given by a witness, Robert Huitt, and marked for identification an ex hibit for the state that was not admitted into evidence. Finally, the district attorney improperly made reference to the failure of the state's witness, Robert Huitt, to testify by his seeking immunity under the pro visions of the fifth amendment." As a further reason for the granting of a new trial, the mo tion states that Judge David Van- denburg "failed to give certain instructions to the jury, as re quested by the defense attorney. I he lailure to do so affected the rights of the defendants to a fair trial, it declared further.

If Gallagher was in jail, the district attorney said he had no knowledge of why the youth was there. The lawsuit states specifically how each of the four defendants allegedly contributed to Gallagh er's being detained in Jail "with out any legal right." The complaint states that Web- Iwr "had Gallagher transferred to the Klamath County Jail by Youngblood and reports further that sometime later he inter viewed the plaintiff in jail and reported his detention to the dis trict attorney. Therefore, t h e suit charges, Webber and Crab- tree "knew or should have known that this plaintiff was detained in complete absence of his right and was falsely imprisoned." It charges further that Sheriff Bntlon knew "at all times that the plaintiff was held and knew or should have known that he was held wilhoul any legal proc ess or rights being afforded to him. It resumes: The sheriff con tinued "to hold the plaintiff in complete absence of his legal rights."

The court said, "The constitu tional provision requiring uniform ity of taxation does not restrict the slale in its exercise of t h e police power as distinguished from its taxing power. "The primary purpose is not to raise revenue but to directly pro mote tlie public welfare. The one cent per acre levy was solely for fire protection." it said further. The court said that tlie stale can serve to benefit the public welfare either by regulation or by applying its taxing power to all of the people and property of the state. The constitutional limitation of equal application of taxes must be observed, the court cited. But it concluded that if the stale de cides to use regulation to protect the public welfare, the costs of such regulation may be assessed on the people and property af fected by the regulation.
