HERALD AND
Insured Unemployment Rate
Declines Steadily In Area
The rate of insured unem
ployment has decreased con
siderably in (he past several
years but figure for the week
ending Dec, .12 show that Ore
gon's average is slightly above
the U.S.
Leonard Sytsma, manager of
the Klamath Falls state employ
ment office, told the Herald
and News that the local rate of
insured unemployment was S.2
per cent. This means that of
the persons covered by unero
ployment Insurance, 5.2 per
cent are not presently work'
ing. The rate for the state of
Oregon is four per cent and
for the United States, 3.6.
The news is heartening for
Klamath Falls nevertheless
hytsma explained that a year
. afro at this time the Klamath
; Falls rate was 6.3, It Mas 8.4
in lOfll and 12.0 in ,1360 which
indicates unemployment here
has been reduced considerably
in (he last several years.
This is how other communities
here In Oregon compared the
week ending Dec. 12, 1963, com
pared with 1962 so far as insur
able unemployment figures are
concerned:
1963 1962
Medford 6.7 8 0
Portland 3.1 3.4
: Bend 4 8 6.7
Eugene 4.3 5.1
i Corvallis 3.0 3.9
j Sytsma pointed out that an
J accurate estimate of the total
, t r..- iU.
Falls area as of August, 1963,
the most recent period calcu
lated, was 17,400. Of that num
ber 16,560 were employed.
Sytsma explained that the
figures do not cover agricultur
al workers and repeated that
they concern only those persons
covered by tuiemployment in
surance. Jle also added that Corvallis
carried the lowest tuiemploy
ment in the state, a figure that
' relates closely to the fact it is
: a college town and that a
', large majority of its population
'. is employed by Oregon State
"University which in turn cf-
feots other employment in the
community.

Judge Rules
Against TV
During Trial
DALLAS UPf News cover
age of the Jack Ruby murder
trial will be restricted to the
pencil and paper journalists
television is barred.
State Dist. Judge Joe B.
Brown ruled Thursday that all
photography and broadcast in
struments would be banned
from the courtroom. Millions
witnessed on live television the
slaying of President Kennedy's
accused assassin, Lee Harvey
Oswald by Ruby on Nov. 24.
Photography and broadcast
coverage also were barred from
Monday's scheduled hearing on
whether Ruby should be freed
on bond.
Mclvin Belli, the "King of
Torts" from San Francisco, was
expected to join six other de
fense lawyers today to plot
strategy for that hearing.
Tom Howard, local attorney
for Ruby, said there was a
"good chance" the defense
would seek a delay in the Feb.
3 trial. He said Belli was sched
uled to present a case Jan. 27 in
New York, and It may conflict
with the opening of Ruby's trial.
Dist. Atty. Henry Wade, wary
of charges of "trying the case
in newspapers, declined to
comment on the case. He said
earlier he would seek death in
the electric chair for Ruby.
Howard said "this Isn't a
death penalty case." He said
the defense plea for a writ of
habeas corpus would charge
that Ruby, 62, was held illegal.
Wade said the murder with
malice charge was not bonda
ble under the laws of Texas,
because the death penalty was
a possible punishment.
Sheriff Bill Decker was asked
if special guards would be pro
vided for Ruby during the trial
and while making the 19-step
movement from jail to Brown's
courtroom.
"I can't tell you that," Deck
er said.
Wade and Decker met Thurs
day for a short while, but neith
er would discuss their conver
sation. It heightened beliefs that
maximum security measures
would prevail.

current situation as it exists
at the moment in the lumber in
dustry. with a federalized task force
protecting the campus.
Authorities said a fifth Guards
man would be taken into cus-
today today 'probably in the
afternoon). He was not arrest
ed Thursday because of illness
in his family.
Officers across central Alaba
ma picked up 2nd Lt. James T.
Perkins of Hotl, IstSgt. Norman
R. Daniel of Fairfield and
Sgts. James T. iMaxwell of Tus
caloosa and William K. Hough
ton of Landale to climax an
"around-the-clock" investigation
that began last Saturday.
Several hours before the ar
rests, Circuit Solicitor Fred Ni
col had said "we think we have
the case solved" and indicated
the arrests would be "startling"
because of the persons involved.
The men were members of a
special task force assigned to
the university to prevent any
disturbances in connection with
the presence of Negro student
Vivian ftlalone, admitted under
federal court order last June
along with another Negro who
dropped out of school the fol
lowing month.
President Kennedy had feder
alized the Alabama National
Guard after Gov. George Wal
lace came to the campus and
blocked the admission of the
Negroes. Wallace withdrew with
the appearance of the Guards
men. One of the three explosions,
each caused by about a half
stick of dynamite, occurred less
than a block from (Miss Rla
lone's dormitory. A second ex
plosion the same day, Nov. 16,
went off in a Negro section
of the city a few blocks from
the campus, and the final blast
on Nov. 19 occurred two blocks
from Hie campus. No one was
hurt in the explosions but win
dows in several buildings were
shattered.
The Guardsmen were re
leased from federal duty late
last month deespite the explo
sions which at the time were be
lieved to have been student
pranks.
The charges against t h e
Guaitfsmen will be presented to
the Tuscaloosa County grand
jury at its next session Jan. 7.
Perkins and Maxwell, each re
leased under $5,000 bond, were
charged with "setting off or ex
ploding dynamite." Daniel, a for
mer Birgmingham city police
man and an ex-Marine, and
Houghton were to be charged
later.

Frank Sinatra Jr. resumed his
singing engagement at a 'Lake

day night under almost the
identical circumstances which
existed when he was forced to
"postpone" it 10 days ago.
But when the 19-year-old sing
er stepped out onto the stage at
Harrah's Club, he was no long

lowing in the footsteps of his
famous father. He was a young
man whose sensational kidnap
ing had put his name before
people throughout the world.
A few gamblers left their
tables for a quick look at the
youth, whose famous father
had paid 40,000 for his re
lease, but they returned to their
gambling almost Immediately.
The young singer returned to
Slateline from Southern Califor
nla by chartered plane Thurs
day. In Los Angeles, the three
men suspected of the Dec. 8
kidnaping remained behind bars
at the County Jail. They are
John William Irwin, 42, Jo

Barry Worthington Keenan, 23.
The three suspects were ar

(UPI i West Germany put 22
men on trial today for running
the greatest mass murder fac
tory in history and the defend
ant began making excuses.
'"When I was sent to Ausch
witz in 1942 I did not know it
was an extermination camp,"
said Torbcrt Mulka, the 68-year-old
assistant commandant of the
Nazi death mill where an esti
mated 2 5 to 4 million persons
perished.
"I only joined the (Nazi elite'
SS because J had no job and
I was detailed to an extermina
tion camp only because a knee
injury kept me from service at
the front," said Karl Hoecker,
a 51-year-old former assistant
Auschwitz commandant accused
with Mulka of making sure the
mass gas chambers worked
smoothly.
Wilhelm Boger, tlie 56-year-old
former first sergeant of the
Gestapo guard and the alleged
inventor of special torture de
vices, told the hushed court, 'I
still remember my SS number."
"It was 2779. I'm not very
proud of it, but it was some
thing special," he said, nerv

suit.

PORTLAND (UPI' A visit
ing civil rights worker and a
Portland minister were placed
under police protection Thursday
after two threatening telephone
calls.
The protection was extended
to Bruce Gordon of New York,
field secretary of the Student
Non-Violent Coordinating Com.
mittee (SNCC), and Rev. Ralph
Moore, pastor of the Highland
Congregational Church and head
of a group called Portland
Friends of SNCC.
Mrs. Moore said she received
a call Thursday in which a man
said Gordon would "leave Port
land in a pine box" unless he
got out of town within 24 hours.
The caller telephoned back later
to confirm the threat.
Rev. Moore said he had re
ceived crank calls and letters
ever since he came to Portland
three years ago, "but I took
this call seriously because the
man threatened murder and be
cause recent events have shown
there are unbalanced persons
who could carry out such a
threat."
Johnson Urged To Both
Sign, Veto Lumber BUI
WASHINGTON (UPI) -President
Johnson was urged today
both to sign and to veto a bill
requiring the labeling of import
ed lumber to show the country
of origin.
A veto was urged editorially
by the Washington Post, which
said the "clear purport" of the
legislation was to erect new bar
riers against imports.
However, Rep. Jack Westland,
R-Wash., sent Johnson a tele
gram urging him to sign the
measure to help the domestic
lumber industry compete with
Canadian producers.
. Tlie editorial urging a veto
said lumber marking provisions
of the bill were the "handiwork"
of Sen. Warren G. Magnuson.

Crimes Trial Opens In Germany
fendants, one by one. rose to
tell of their pre-Auschwitt lives.
In coming weeks the greatest
war crimes trial in post-occupation
German history is expected
to last six or eight months the
court will hear evidence pin
ning down the almost endless
list of charges.
One defendant, Dr. Franz
Lucas, 52, an Auschwitz camp
doctor, was ill and unable to at
tend the opening session. Setting
his case aside for the moment,
the judges ordered Lucas to
show up Dec. 30, when he would
rejoin his comrades for the sec
ond scheduled trial session.
Court officials said Lucas would
not be tried separately from
the other defendants.
Only Oswald Kaduk accused
of enjoying breaking inmates'
necks with a pick showed
something of an old habit. He
stood ramrod straight and
clicked his heels when t h e
black-robed chief judge called
his name.
The defendants the doctors
who allegedly selected inmates
for slave labor or death, the
dentists who made sure all gold
was yanked from victims teeth,
the clerk who kept a rising
death count, the Gestapo man
who allegedly drowned a priest
by holding his head in a bucket
of water, the SS men who al- I
legedly made "research experi
ments" on female prisoners
sat mutely in the city hall cham
ber used as a courtroom.
Franz Hofmann, accused of
forcing naked prisoners to stand
in snow until they froze, hid his
face behind a copy of the in
dictment, which is four times
the length of the Bible.
Emil Hantl, accused of help
ing o)crale the gas chambers
that killed thousands of per
sons every day from 1942 until
1944, fidgeted with his fingers.
The trial, biggest since the
Allied occupation courts fin
ished their work with major
Nazi offenders, may be one of
the longest since the war. The
defendants, who ranged in a g e
from 42 to 68, stand accused of
dozens of specific crimes.
About 250 witnesses from the
United States, Israel, Poland,
Austria, and 11 other countries
have been called in the trial,
which is expected to last six to
eight months.
About 120 newsmen from both
sides of the Iron Curtain have
been issued courtroom passes.
The trial is so large that it had
to be moved to the council
rooms of the Frankfurt City
Hall.

The legislation would require
the marking of Canadian lum
ber to show its origin. It would
withdraw an exemption from
such marking requirements ex
tended to Canadian lumber in
1948.
Pacific Northwest lumbermen
have complained that they are
losing U.S. East Coast markets
to British Columbia. Their chief
complaint has been that the Ca
nadians can ship lumber to the
U.S. coast aboard lower-cost for
eign ships, while U.S. shippers
must use higher-cost American
flag vessels.
Westland told Johnson that
marking of the country of origin
would "encourage purchase of
American lumber."
