4 Underworld Post Reward For 'Stoolie' WASHINGTON IUPD - To the underworld, crime syndicate stool pigeon Joseph Valachi is a living dead man. To the Justice Department, he is a breathing card index on the underworld and it intends to keep him that way. Valachi became a man on the run vvlien he defied the syndicate's blood oath of silence and turned informer for the government. The syndicate's answer to the dclcc tor: A reported $100,000 price on his head. But the Justice Department is just as determined to keep Valachi alive as the underworld is to kill him. "We are going to take every precaution necessary to protect . this man," a department official said. One source who interviewed Val achi said the short, graying priso ner, whose record goes back 46 years, "knew he would be dead in a verv short time" if the crime syndicate corners him. Feared For Life It was. this very fear of death by his former friends that drove Valachi to talk. He gave me jus- lice Department dozens of names that, fitted together, gave officials an inside view of an underworld operation (hat was cheating the public of billions ol dollars a year On The Record KLAMATH FALLS BIRTHS BOYS HERRERA Born lo Mr. and Mn.

Ull SUMMARY Boys: 2H Girls,) 274 In return for the information, Valachi was promised protection. "He was well aware that he was putting a price on his head," one source said. Tlie convicted New York narcot ics dealer was removed from a federal penitentiary in Atlanta. G a year ago. Where he is now, is a tightly held secret. One source said his hideout has been changed several times to elude would-be executioners. What sent Valachi over to the side of the government, reportedly was word that he had been mark ed for elimination. Once he made his talk-for-protection deal with the government, Valachi was transferred from Atlanta. Since then he has been in hiding. Valachi's testimony during the past year has been hailed by Atty. Gen. Robert F. Kennedy as the biggest breakthrough yet in the fight against organized crime. It was Valachi who revealed the long secret name of the organization. It is "Cosa Nostra," or "Our Thing" in Italian. High Command Based on Valachi's information, the justice department has work ed out a table of high command for the underworld that includes: New York hoodlums Vito Gcno vese, Joseph Bonanno, Carlo Gam bino, Thomas Luchese and Jo seph Magliocco. In Chicago, Sam Giancana was pinpointed, in De troit, Joseph Zerilli, in Pittsburgh, Sebastian La Rocca, in Philadel phia, Angelo Bruno, in Butfalo, N. Y . Stefano Magaddino, in Bos ton, Raymond Patriarca. and in Cleveland, John T. Scalish. Justice Departnu-nt sources said the importance of Valachi's testi mony cannot be underestimated. He is expected to tell the full story before the Senate permanent investigations subcommittee, but sources said he already has shed light on a number of unsolved gangland murders, including the unsuccessful murder attempt on racketeer Frank Costello, and the successful killing of gangster Al bert Anaslasla in New York in 1957.

The plavoirl ran the gauntlet of the hostile barrage yesterday afternoon when she left the down town apartment where she is staying. She was accompanied by her friend, Paula Hamilton-Mar shall, 22, who rents the apart ment. Elegant in a green costume and with her face tense and pale, Miss Keller accelerated her car through the crowd of jeering women. Miss Keeler has been under doctor's supervision since she suf fered a near breakdown on hear ing of Dr. Stephen Ward s ap parent suicide. day he would "look into" the mat ter. The American Medical Associa tion 'AMAi has categorically lab eled the drug "worthless." Law requires that "plans for in vestigational use" be filed with the Food and Drug Administration i FDA i for every drug under ex perimental use. Drs. Stevan Duro vie and Andrew C. Ivy, Chicago, sponsors of Krebiozen, at first compiled with this requirement, then withdrew their plan charging the FDA with harassment. Their action meant that Krebio zen no longer could he sent through interstate commerce. Per sons using the drug were faced with the choice of moving to Illi nois or abandoning the treatment. About 200 of them, some en route to Chicago and many wear ing the symbolic black of mourn ing, appeared before the White House Tuesday in support of their Dlea. Thev also picketed t h Health Education and Welfare Department. They sought an executive order by the President which would guarantee that those now taking the serum could continue to do so until the National Cancer Institute INCH has tested the drug. Sen. Paul H. Douglas, D III., has proposed a joint resolution un der which Krebiozen shioments in patients now undergoing the serum wouia oe permiuea until an Ni'l test of the scrum is completed. A similar resolution in the Hoika by Rep. Otis G. Pike, D-N. Y., has about 20 co-sponsors. ALTURAS - Peggy Callahan and -Mike Duncan have been named Modoc County's 4-H All Stars for 196.1.

They will represent the county at the State All-Star Conference next month. By At, Kl'ETTNER Lnited Press International One of the most ambitious pro grams ever advanced fnr the up grading of the Negro race in America has been proposed by the National Urban League. The proposal, quickly named the "Domestic Marshall Plan," would call for the expenditure of the estimated $10 billion over a 10-year period. The project's aim would be to close the gap, except socially, between the Negro and white citizen of the United States. The Urban League, which con ceived the idea and wants to manage it, acknowledges there are many hurdles to surmount before final plans can be an nounced. That is expected within the next three months. Just Starling "We are just putting the meat on the bones now," Herman Sweatt, assistant director of the Urban League in the South, said. The spokesman said the federal government is exploring "at a high level" the feasibility nf the project. Whitney Young Jr., Ur ban League executive secretary, was in a day-long conference at the White House Tuesday during which the proposed program was discussed. Young visualizes being financed by and local governments as well as I because of the long lag between by private foundations. The U. S. "Marshall Plan" would finance job training and apprentice courses for Negroes, scholarships, health programs, business financing, hook buying and tutoring. Gap Is Widening "The gap between Negro and white, across the board, is always widening in terms of such things as education and income," Sweatt said. "If we are going to close that gap, something in addition to equal opportunity has lo be add the program cd. We must go beyond equality.' lederal, stale The Urban League leels that the education of large masses of Negro and white children, the fi nest teachers should now be made available to Negroes, whether in-i integrated or in 100 per cent Ne-I gro schools, the proposed pro gram would help pay the cost. The Urban League plans to con centrate heavily on the advance ment of job opportunities for Ne groes and it is here that much of the money would be spent.

His estranged wife. Kathy Gib son, was treated for shock at a hospital but was otherwise unin jured. Gibson was killed in an ex change of shots with deputy sher iffs Dave Tankerslcy and Spencer Gaston who located him after a search of nearly three hours. Authorities gave this account: Mrs. Gibson returned from a trip to Idaho and sought to visit her children. Gibson refused and, according to Mrs. Gibson, threat ened to kill her. She fled his home and was walking in downtown Coos Bay with her mother when Gibson drove up in a car. Mrs. Gibson said he fired at her mother and then forced her into the car. They drove to his hpme. Trankersley and Gaston arrived with a warrant for his arrest. The officers came upon the couple and ordered Gibson to drop his .30-.3O carbine. Shots were exchanged and Gib son fled up a hill into heavy un derbrush, forcing his wife with him. The officers radioed for held. State and city police joined dep uties and for nearly three hours combed the hills. Shortly before 7 p.m. Tankersley and Gaston came upon the couple.
