on CC Head Warns Peril Point Near CINCINNATI, Feb. 17. The president of the U.S. Chamber of Commerce said today the Nation is "very near that point which economists refer to as the 'peril point'." "We seem to have our minds hypnotized by just one thoughtspending," said Herman W. Steinkraus in an address prepared for the Cincinnati Chamber of Commerce.

"Every group is pressing on Washington to get more, more, more. They have a hundred reasons why their particular demands are necessary while all the while taxes mount higher and higher "I don't mean to speak lightly when I say we need more sense in spending our Nation's he said, adding: "I do not say that if we keep on this spending spree at the rate going soon find ourselves in bankruptcythat is possible--but I do say that if we keep on at this rate our tax burden will become well nigh intolerable." Shot Halts Two Boys Caught in Gas Theft SAN LORENZO VILLAGE, Feb. teenage boys were taken into custody by an off-duty Oakland police officer last night after he saw them siphoning gas from a car parked near his home. The officer, Patrolman Rodney H. Steves, 28, of 15739 Paseo Del Campo, fired a warning shot in the air as the youths fled the scene.

One, a 13-year-old youth, was caught when he slipped and fell and the other, 16 years old, was taken into custody a short time later. Here is the finest french dressing in the World!

GL Mercy Slayer Ducks Interview By CLAIRE COX CANDIA, N.H., Feb. Arguments over the pending "mercy slaying" trial of Dr.

Hermann N. Sander may rage elsewhere throughout the world to-1 day, but Sander and his neighbors talk only about the weather. Asked how he felt about his on Monday in forthcoming, Manchester for first degree murder because he allegedly killed a dying patient, Sander, 41, replied: "I'm a little nervous, but not too bad." Then he said he hoped it would either clear up or that rain would wash the snowdrifts away. That's the way it was throughout this hilly, snow-covered little New England village of 1000 population. Many of the residents don't like the publicity Candia is getting because one of its most respected citizens is being accused of ending the life of a cancer sufferer by putting bubbles of air into her veins.

NOW THEY'RE SILENT They got excited about the death of Mrs. Abbie C. Borroto, 59, when they learned about it on December 29. They gathered at the store, at the garage and in kitchens to talk about the trouble! the town's only doctor was in. But now the tongues have stopped wagging.

The Candia folk want to get about their business. Few of them want to go to the trial, and it is difficult to get anyone to say anything about the case. Sander stayed at home in his 10-room, two-story, white frame' house atop a hill with his wife and three small daughters. He went outdoors to shovel snow, but he didn't want to talk about his worries with anyone. A reporter walked up his driveway in a snowstorm, and paused to talk to Sander.

He smiled. "See my secretary," he said, putting down his big snow shovel and motioning toward the house. WANT TO BE LEFT ALONE Mrs. Alice Sander, 37, former nurse, appeared at the door. Her brown eyes looked worried.

She wore no makeup. Her graying hair in long, loose waves. She pulled a sweater tight over thin white blouse. "I think everyone has all the information they need," she said. like to be left alone." Sander, a slim man of medium height, kept on shoveling snow.

The family day, Taffy, a blond cocker spaniel, tugged at his chain and barked for attention. "Everyone has been very nice to us," Mrs. Sander said. "No, I don't know whether I'm going to the trial. Someone has to stay home with the children." THOUSANDS OF LETTERS Mrs.

K. S. Dinsmore, postmistress, who also runs a grocery store, said more than 3000 letters had come addressed to Dr. Sander. They came from Africa, England, and Honolulu, as well as most of the states.

Dr. Sander has been home free in $25,000 bail, an action rare in capital cases in this state. There was a report that when the trial begins in Superior Court in Manchester at 10 a.m. Monday, the state will ask that the defendant's- bait be discontinued and that he be re-arrested and kept in custody for the duration of the trial. That would be possible, although under the law the bail could be continued until there is A verdict.

MAN FOUND DEAD IN AUTOMOBILE HAYWARD, Feb. S. Turner, 42, of 968 Carson Drive, Hayward, was found dead in his automobile in the garage of his home last night.

SAVE MILES SAVE GASOLINE Jas. Roosevelt Speaks Again Continuing his street corner campaign for the Democratic gubernatorial nomination, James Rooseyelt made a series of Metropolitan Oakland appearances today. As previously, he blasted at the Warren Administration during his formal talks, but some new angles were injected during question and answer periods. Asked about the lobbying situation, Roosevelt retorted that he would "enforce the lobbying laws that have been on the books for many years." NO LOBBY LAW Actually there has never been and is not now a lobbying statute in California. The lobby control law enacted by the last Legislature at the insistence of Governor Warren does not become effective until the middle of next month.

Queried concerning unemployment and what he'd do to relieve it, Roosevelt said he would use the $75,000,000 rainy day reserve created by Governor Warren and another $100,000,000 which he said was in various funds 'not used by the Legislature. He didn't say exactly where that money is. 'He called for a "visionary program to attract new industry to California" to provide employment for migrants when they are not employed in agriculture. OPPOSES SALES TAX Roosevelt said he did not favor the state sales under normal conditions, but unot, indicate tax, what levy he would replace that major source of state revenue. His first appearance of the day, at Sather Gate at the University of California, was delayed slightly when police required that a truck from which he was speaking be parked properly, to the disgruntlement of Roosevelt's campaign officials.
