District Court judge question on ballot Jesse challenges Perkins on strength of case wouldn't surprise me if Jack Schroeder was shady." Turner denied making either statement. Perkins didn't dispute Stengel's contention that Turner called Schroeder In Florida after the investigation was dropped to inform him that no probe would be conducted. Schroeder, a former candidate for the Republican gubernatorial nomination, is a former state senator.

He and Turner served in the Iowa Senate at the same time. HERITAGE AGING DIRECTOR QUITS Robert L. Robinson, 29, of Cedar Rapids, has resigned as director of the seven-county Heritage Agency on the Aging. Robinson, whose resignation will become effective Nov. 15, said he is "tired of trying to deal with all that has to be dealt with, including the problems we've had at the state level." Robinson is paid $16,610 a year to head the $709,000 program of services to the elderly through Heritage, which is operated by Kirkwood Community College with funds from the Iowa Commission on the Aging.

The state commission is under investigation by various agencies, and Robinson said that, plus two changes in state directors, has "hurt some of the credibility of the aging program." Robinson has headed the agency almost two years. 5 million shots for swine flu so far ATLANTA, GA. (AP) More than five million Americans have received swine flu shots, and the national immunization program "is picking up steam" despite lingering fears over deaths after vaccination, federal health officials said Thursday. Immunization clinics are open to the public in most states after three weeks of concentrating on the elderly and the chronically ill persons considered to have a high risk of catching swine flu. Stafford Smith, public information officer for the federal Center for Disease Control, said some people probably still are reluctant to take the shots because of the deaths of 40 persons soon after they had been given the shots, although "a lot of that fear, we hope, has been allayed by the fact that the vaccine was not implicated in the deaths.

By PAUL LEAVITT Reenter steft Writer Voters in Polk County will be asked to make a decision next Tuesday that probably will be decided by someone else. The official ballot will ask voters to decide whether five judges should be retained on the District Court bench. It's the standard question that each District Court judge in Iowa faces every six years. But the ballot in Polk County contains the names of Judges Leo Oxberger and Robert G. Allbee, and voting whether or not to retain them could be meaningless.

Oxberger and Allbee have already been sworn in as judges of the new Court of Appeals, and are to begin working as appellate judges Monday, the day before the election. But their future on the appeals court is clouded because of a suit pending before the Iowa Supreme Court that raises a technical challenge to their eligibility to serve on the Court of Appeals. (A recent bar assocation plebiscite showed 97 per cent of the lawyers who responded to the poll approve of Allbee's judicial abilities. Oxberger had a 59 per cent approval rate.) The Supreme Court is scheduled to hear the case Nov. 10, and an early ruling is expected.

If the challenge is overruled, Allbee and Oxberger will resign their district judgeships and the results of the Tuesday voting will have only sentimental value. Linn County District Judge James Carter, also appointed to the Court of Appeals, is not on the ballot there. Some observers feel the question of whether any judge should be retained Body in Arizona identified as Iowan's SpkW OiwaKh Tt Tht RniiMr TUCSON, ARIZ.

COOKS IN ONLY 7 MINUTES TURNER Continued from Page One suit until more than one year after he first leveled the charges, and more than a year after he quit the attorney general's office to enter private practice. Schroeder and Chapman, meanwhile, deny any wrongdoing. The option agreement was entirely normal, they say, and was approved by shareholders. Need Better Law? Democratic Senator James Redmond of Cedar Rapids said the sub-commitee is looking into the matter because it is trying to determine if the state needs a better law to protect minority shareholders who face such a situation, or if the state needs better law enforcement from the attorney general's office. Stengel contends the present law is adequate if some changes are made.

For example, he said, the statute of limitations needs to be changed to start running when the so-called "commercial bribe" is discovered, not vjhen it was made. In the General United case, he said, the problem was Turner's reluctance to investigate Schroeder. Stengel said he and Hudson started the investigation and impaneled a grand jury in 1974. They went on a one-week vacation, he said, and when they returned, the investigation had been called off. Stengel said he objected to halting the investigation, but he said Turner was afraid it would result in bad publicity for Schroeder.

Perkins disputed Stengel's version of the events surrounding the Investigation of the merger. He said it was Swanson, not Turner, who made the final decision to call off the investigation. Perkins said he and Swanson reviewed the case while Stengel was on vacation. Even if Stengel's worst suspicions proved true, he said, both he and Swanson felt the case was not strong enough to prosecute. Jesse Challenges Democratic Representative Norman Jesse of Des Moines challenged Perkins on that point by asking whether the attorney general's office had enough information to call off the Investigation.

But Perkins insisted the case would not have been good enough for a prosecution. He also disputed a report submitted by Redmond that said Turner had refered to Schroeder as being "shady." Perkins said the way he remembered the conversation, Turner said, "It I for i party turprlM or ul to pul th family In Hallowaon mood larva your lavorila yam caaaarola or a dallclout yam pla.

The removal of a carburetor from an oil burning space heater is blamed for an early Thursday morning Diaze tnat killed four persons here in what is Waterloo PtS MOINt Miltl IOC IwsMoiNtsf Deueveo.

10 De ine worst loss of life ever in a Waterloo fire The four died when they were trapped inside a small mobile home that was engulfed in flames after an apparent explosion of fuel oil fumes. The victims were Samuel J. Monroe, 35, and three small children, Shawn, Jody, and Josie Hart, 13 months. The fire occurred In the children's home where they lived with their mother, Jennie Hart, 24. Assistant Waterloo Fire Chief Roy Duggan said that Monroe, who lived nearby, was trapped inside the structure while attempting to repair the malfunctioning heater located in a small wood frame addition to the trailer.

The children were asleep in a bedroom at the rear of the trailer that is believed to be more than 30 years old. Duggan said that when Hart returned home early Thursday, she and a babysitter smelled fumes in the trailer. They summoned Monroe, who was staying overnight in a pickup truck camper parked nearby. The women remained in the camper while Monroe went to the mobile home. Minutes later, the women heard screams and glass breaking and they looked outside to See the mobile home in flames.

They ran next door to the home of Alta Johnston, owner of the mobile home, who suffered first-degree burns on her hands in a futile attempt to break a window in the children's bedroom. Firemen found the bodies of the three children in their beds. Duggan said that Monroe was found lying on his back on a bed in the other end of the trailer. "It looks like he was trying to get to the children, and got knocked back onto the bed," Duggan said. Duggan said Hart told him she'd had trouble with the oil heater for several days, and had even attempted to burn wood in it.

Wednesday Monroe cleaned the wood ashes out of the heater and got it working again, she told Duggan. "He decided, though, that he'd stay overnight in the camper nearby because he wasn't satisfied with the way the heater was working," Duggan said. After the blaze was extinguished, the firemen discovered that the carburetor mechanism that controls the flow of oil into the heater had been removed. The fuel flow was "regulated only by a valve on an oil barrel outside the building. "That method can overload the heater with oil and cause a buildup of fumes.

That's obviously what caused the explosion, "Duggan said. Hart told Duggan she had suggested to Monroe that the children be taken out of the mobile home while he inspected the heater. She said that Monroe told her that wouldn't be necessary because he would air out the trailer. Neighbors said Hart and her three children moved into the mobile home about three months ago. They said she was separated from her husband, and the family was on welfare.

The home was located on Waterloo's east side.
