GREBLEY TRIBUNE Monday. April 7. 1958 Burner Wsfo Cell Block Will Be Made Unfit tor Living Quarters Speaker Wednesday DENVER If) The old Cell Block at the Colorado Reformatory at Buena Vista will be gutted to that it never again can be used is living quarters for inmates, Gov. McNichols said Monday, The cell block was the scene of riot in which one inmate was killed last summer, McNichols said he gave the order to tear the interior out of the building to Warden Wayne Patterson last week. Exttrior Wills To Stand The governor said that for the time being, at least, the exterior walls will be allowed to stand am fte building may be converted to other uses, particularly vocation il training.

McNichols said Patterson, who look over the institution three weeks ago, is doing an excellent job. He already has changed the system of preparing food and has improved the cleanliness of inmates, the governor said. The new warden, he is working quietly and effi cientiy on internal changes. Bitti Approved Improvtmtnti The governor said he was pleased that a report by Sanford Bates, former director of federal prisons, confirms the wisdom of ail improvements being made in ctate institutions. "We're, not going as fast as we'd like, because of money," McNichols conceded.

Strloti Mental Homt The governor said he thinks tremendous strides have been made within the past year at the state Homes at Ridge and Grand Junction, where mental defectives are housed, and at the penitentiary. He said he doesn't know yet how psychiatrists can be obtained for the mental homes and suggested the state may have to hire them on a consulting basis. Also, he said, the itate mental homes lack the capacity to handle all persons who should be The governor said Bates' plan for a state department of correc-, lions "may be too rich for our blood" at the present. McNichols praised the work of State Institutions Director Herbert Allen, saying he is doing the best possible, but he said the slate is not going to get a director with the background one should have for the $8,500 salary paid Allen. Stork Express Costello Wins Case in Court WASHINGTON UP! The Supreme Court Monday threw out denaturalization proceedings against New York racketeer Frank Costello.

The unanimous decision gave Coitello a elearcut victory in his fight against government efforls to cancel his 1925 naturalization and thus pave the way to deport him. The court made no direct reference to a contention by Costello's attorney, Edward Bennett Williams of Washington that the government's case was "permeated by wiretapping." Instead it ordered dismissal of the denaturalization action in a ierse order which said only that an affidavit showing good cause is a perequisite to the government's beginning a denaturalization case Such an affidavit, the court added, must be filed with the government's complaint against the individual when the proceedings are begun. Costello had appealed to the Supreme Court from a decision by hi U. S. Circuit Court in New York that the government's denaturalization case had been erroneously dismissed.

System WASHINGTON Wl-Senators are sharply divided over whether they should break with tradition and install a public address system in the Senate chamber. Sen. Wiley (R-Wis) introduced a resolution last month calling for a loud-speaker system, and the Senate Rules Committee asked each of the 96 senators for his opinion. So far, committee aides said Monday, replies have Jbeen received from about two thirds of the senators. Of these, 25 against the idea and 25 were for it.

The' others took no definite stand. Indians Once Again Battle By SANKY TRIMBLE ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. W-The redman finally is going to get a chance to get back at those pesky palefaces. And there is a chance, at least, that the Indian will come out once again on the short end of things, just as he usually does in the shoot-'em-up Westerns. This time it will be bows and arrows at a yet-undetermined number of paces.

Under consideration, and very likely to come off this summer, is an archery contest between the' Indians of Taos Pueblo in northern New Mexico and members of the Albuquerque Field Archers and possibly other archery organizations. Sometime late this month, Durward A. Young Jr. of Albuquerque, representing the paleface bowmen, will sit in council and smoke the peace pipe with tribal representatives to set up arrangements for the shoot. Some of the questions Young wishes to have settled before battle begins include just how many redmen will compete, whether a handicap system should be used if so how do we handicap the and the type of tournament to be held.

Tony Mirabel, a former Taos governor and a tribal leader, already has answered one question. Asked by a paleface reporter now many at the Pueblo still use the bow and arrow, he replied (roughly translated): "Man, everyone. The elders are still the most. But we can turn out the whole tribe if there are few bucks in prizes." the whole tribe he means the 900-plus population of the Pueblo, give or take a few for those too young or too old do battle. River Blast Said Success CAMPBELL RIVER, B.C.

Executive Dies Cuban Rebel Units Caught in Mountains By LARRY ALLEN HAVANA Ul Troops pushed into rugged mountains at the eastern end of Cuba Monday in a drive against two rebel columns the government said were cut off from each other. Band Defeated The Army claimed a band led by Raul Castro was defeated and forced into the Sierra Cristal, northeast of Santiago. A force led by Raul's brother Fidel, head of the rebel movement, was said to be isolated somewhere in the Sierra Maestras to the southwest.

Troops were pursuing both rebel bands, the Army said. Elsewhere in Oriente Province there were several clashes between troops and rebels.

The rebels said the plane burned when engine trouble prevented a takeoff. OMAHA Ray L.

Snclly misled hlff mommy daddy, sister nnd brother Demo National Chairman Claims GOP Is Now Using Old Policies of Truman ELKHART, Jnd. HI Democratic National Chairman Paul-M.

Butler said Monday Republicans are relying on Democratic-sponsored programs "to keep this second Eisenhower-Nixon recession from stigmatizing the Republican party with another depression." "The simple truth is," Butler said in an address to the Elkhart Rotary Club, "that political necessity and the facts of economic life have forced the Republican party and those businessmen who support it to adopt the basic economic reforms of Roosevelt and Truman as the backbone of our economic stability." Butler said everyone knows that the business community and the GOP took a very dim view of former President Truman's economic proposals. "Yet today," he added, "we have the ironic spectacle of a Republican president signing a public housing bill that Mr. Truman was called a socialist for pioneering. "We have a Republican President accepting the responsibility for government action to counteract the recession as down in Harry Truman's full employment act of 1946. "And the final vindication is the urgent plea of the Republican administration to Mr.

Truman, Gov. (Adlai) Stevenson and other Democratic leaders to help secure passage of the foreign aid and reciprocal trade programs upon which the economic security of the entire free world is dependent. These were initiated by the Democratic party." Cancer Test To Be Given to Convicts Broken Axle Derails Train near Lamar LAMAR tffl Twenty cars of a Santa Fe, Railroad freight train loaded with rail equipment were derailed east of Lamar Sunday. All of the train's five crewmen 1 escaped injury. The accident was attributed to a lubricating axle which apparently got too hot and broke.

The train's engine and 12 other cars remained on the track The train was en route to Kansas City. SAN FRANCISCO A University of California lung cancer test that has proved successful in 90 per cent of 6,000 cases will soon be given a massive five-year trial on 6,000 California convicts by Dr. Seymour M. Farber, associate clinical professor of medicine. The insidious tumor disease causes 33,000 deaths a year in the United States.

Early diagnosis and.treatment has proved of great aid to doctors in combatting malady. A description of the new weapon in the diagnostic arsenal wa! given by Dr. Farber and Dr. David A. Wood director of cancer research at the University of California Medical School.

The two scientists said they have adopted a method used in diagnosing early cervical cancer, one of the most common cancers in women. The method involves microscopic examination of cells shed by the tissue in the potentially cancerous area. For lung testi the' cells are coughed out of body in sputum. The researchers have found, said Dr. Farber, that even before 'cancer symptoms appear an examination of the minute tissue cells from the bronchial tubes of the lungs reveals the dramatic structural changes that presage cancer.

Dr. Farber said tie method a complex and fairly costly. It is now being refined, so that examiners can obtain concentrated cell packs from each subject, and make certain they are getting the cells from deep within the lungs. The new techniques are being tested at San Francisco Hospital and at Ft. Miley Veterans Hospital.

Two Former Justices Say Revamp of State CS May Cause Spoils DENVER W--Two former chief justices of the Colorado Supreme Court said Monday a proposed constitutional amendment to revamp the state's civil service structure might lead to a new spoils system. Wilbur M.

Alter of Lakewood and John C. Young of Colorado Springs gave their opinions in statements requested by the Colorado State Civil Service Employ- es Assn. The proposed amendment will be on the. general election ballot Nov. 4.

The way was paved by action of the Legislature with the endorsement of Gov. McNichols. Alter and Young said the way was paved by action of the Legislature with the endorsement of Gov. McNichols. Alter and Young said the way one section of the proposed amendment is Men might le.ad to the removal of all officers, administrators and a ment heads from civil sBrvice.

Gov. McNichols, who supports the Civil Service amendment, said he felt the opinions were "straining at gnats." He expressed great respect for both Alter and Young, but said they are now in private practice and arc representing private clients whether or not they were paid for the opinions. Civil Service Couldn't Be Worse McNichols said that so far as state employes are concerned "they couldn't have any worse Civil Service than we've right now." He has the power, he said, to fire about half of them without cause if he desire since they are not certified to the jobs they hold. Hastily, he denied any such intention but said approval of the proposed amendment would take care of the situation. The governor contended that the opposition to the amendment springs from a provision which would allow the Legislature to remove-heads of five departments from the merit system.

They are highways, agriculture, a employment and welfare. USE THE TRIBUNE WANT ADS Attention!
