Veteran bush pilot Don Sheldon popped his light plane through a cloud cover at the 17.000 foot level Sunday and spotted the climbers for whom a search had been conducted since last Wednesday. Sheldon reported that all mem bers of the expedition were in good condition and that they ap peared to be in no danger. Concern for the members of the expedition arose when the climb ers could not be located on the mountain. Dense clouds en shrouded the slopes, hampering ellorts to locale the climbers from the air. Among those participating in the air search was Lowell Thomas Jr., son of the famous commentator. He was in another plane at a lower level of the mountain when Sheldon located the climbers.

Produces Millionaires Rapidly WASHINGTON (UPD The na tion is producing millionaires at the fastest clip since the get-rich- quick era of the late 1920s. The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) in its latest tabulation on the subject reported today that 308 persons filed returns showing $1 million or more income in 1961. This was the largest number since 1929 when the stock market was at the peak ot its stratos pheric binge, and the total of $1 million taxpayers h 1 1 a record 51.1. Ninety-two new faces were added to this select group in 1961. the biggest increase since 1928 when the number spurted by 221. The IRS statistics show only those who reported earning $1 mil lion or more during the 11 tax year. Authorities on the distribu tion of U. S. wealth estimate there are a lot more Americans who are worth $1 million today. Some have placed the number as high as 100,000. Government tax reports, of course, mention no names, ut from these studies, it is possible BASIN BRIEFS to get a statistical profile of the average $1 million taxpayer 1901. It would look something like this: The average top-bracket taxpay er had an adjusted gross income of about $2 million. He paid about jraW.OOO in income taxes. Most likely he was on a pay roll, although his income from salaries was a drop in the bucket to him, anyway. The biggest chunk of his earnings came from profits on the sale of such items as stocks and property. The IKS Millionaires Club ac counted for about .8 per cent of all taxes paid in 1961, By contrast, those in the $6,000 to $7,000 brac ket paid 8.4 per cent of all taxes collected that year. MltS.

Rockefeller Warns Republicans Of 'Radical Right Lunatic Fringe ' WASHINGTON UPD - Sup porters of Sen. Barry Goldwater today interpreted as a challenge New York Gov. Nelson A. Rocke feller's attack on the GOP's "rad ical right." Rockefeller, a possible GOP presidential candidate in 1964, said Sunday his party was being threatened by what he described as a growing subversion from the radical right lunatic fringe. Rockefeller also cautioned against abandoning northern in dustrial areas in order to concen trate on getting the southern vote. Such a plan would be disastrous, he said. He did not mention Gold wateri a conservatives' favorite for the GOP nomination, by name put his inference appeared clear. Mrs. lone F. Harrington. Re publican national committee woman from Indiana and co chairman ot the new draft Gold- water committee, said today she believed Rockefeller's statement was "probably a prelude to the Inationall governors conference next week." Rockefeller has announced that he plans to introduce a strong civil rights resolution at the con ference. Previous attempts to put the governors on record with sim ilar resolutions have resulted in a southern governors' talkathon that led to tabling of the resolu tions. Mrs. Harrington said she was concerned that Rockefeller in ferred the Goldwater-for-presidcnt movement was sectional in na ture. She said the committee had not "crossed oil ' any section m the nation in its projections ot possible Goldwater vote strength in a presidential election. Rockefeller pointed to the re cent young Republican national convention in San Francisco as an example of how the "Republi can party is in real danger of subversion by the radical, well fi nanced and highly disciplinea radical right. He said the proceedings there were nominated Dy esiiL-mii groups, "carefully organized" well financed and operating inrougn the tactics of ruthless, rough-shod intimidation. "The leaders of the Birchers and others of the radical right lunatic fringe . . . who success fully engineered this disgraceful subversion ... are the same peo- Cabin Cruiser Runs Aground DEPOE BAY (UPH-A 10-foot cabin cruiser ran aground on the rocks at the entrance to Depoe Bay Saturday afternoon when its outboard engines failed. Six persons left the boot by climbing the rocks. pie who are now moving to sub vert the Republican party itself," he said. By "Birchers" he meant the John Birch Society. "These are the tactics of total itarianism," Rockefeller said. The governor said these extre mists preach programs of "dis trust, disunity and the ultimate destruction of the confidence o( the people in themselves. They are purveyors of hate and dis trust. . ." k UJDrUA TULELAKE L CALIF, 3 s x M Prlrr I'ltlnftv, Rohfrl Rytn I BILLY BUDD 1 Tu. i Wfd. m THE GREAT V 1MPOSTER I YOUR EXPANSION i WATCH BRACELET S Replaced S 88 : CHARGE I ITI I CHOOSE fOM OU WIDE SELECTION OF I SMART-IOOKINS MtlL EXPANSION MODELS.
