1954 Fourteen Vol. LXIII, No. 43 Seven Residents of Home For Aged Burned to Death HARTFORD, Mich, to -Seven patients--four women and three men--lost their lives in a fire that raced through a convalescent home for th aged late Friday night. In 30 minutes, the fire de stroyed the two-story frame building, three miles west a i southwestern Michigan. Police and firemen probed th ruins for the bodies of Harley Babc'ock, 76, of Watervliet; Free Sayles, 84, of Glenn; Mrs.

Lucj Sparling, 91, of Coloma; Samue Lutz, 93, of Covert; Mrs. Adelini Blakeslee, 81, and Miss Louise Bishop, 83, both of Benton Harbor Mrs. Mary Collins, 66, of Water vliet, died en route to Watervlie Hospital. Five of the victims were bed ridden. Three Patients Rescued Three other patients were rescued.

They were Mrs. Jennie Bchuister, 83, of Benton Harbor The total for the Twin Cities and Chris Bender, 10, and his wife Katherine, 80, also of Benton Harbor. They were treated at a hospital for burns. The home had been operated the last two years by Mr. and Mrs.

Clark Shimer. Mrs. Bessie Costakis, who was caring for bed-ridden patients on the first floor, gave this account of -the fire; She heard Mrs. Collins scream She ran to the scene and founc that a fire had broken out in a glassed-in front porch occupied by Mrs. Sparling.

Mrs. Costakis tried to rescue Mrs. Sparling but was cut off by a wall of flames. She called Mrs. Shimer and ran outside for help.

When firemen arrived, the fire had nearly destroyed the building. Further efforts to rescue the patients were futile. Bender escaped through -a second floor window. His wife was a bed patient on the first floor. Although suffering from it broken hijj, she dragged herself out the kitchen door.

New Church To Be Opened The new Apostolic Faith church on Cascade avenue near the Chehalis postoffice will be opened to the public Sunday when formal service of dedication will be held at 3 p. m. The captain of the M. V. Lower Light, Rev.

R. Robert Crawford, general overseer of ttie Apostolic Faith with headquarters in Portland, will preside at the services. He will be assisted by Rev. Allen Crabtree, Yakima evangelist; the local pastor, Rev. Robert Hanlin, and the crew of the missionary ship, the Lower Light, now docked in Olympia.

Construction of the new church building, of modern design and with facilities seating over 300, was started in June of last year with virtually all of the work being done by church members. Slot Machine Move Blocked OLYMPIA UPI Plans of a Spokane organization to amend by initiative the state constitution to eliminate its ban on slot machines and other forms of lotteries didn't pay off when they reached the attorney general's office. It can't be done, the attorney general advised Sec. of State Earl Coe, who had asked whether the constitution can be amended by initiative. Coe said he would welcome a court test of the opinion but meanwhile would reject the initiative.

Robert B. Haas, leader of the movement to initiate the amendment, said he would consult with other members of his oi'ganiza. tion to determine whether to make the court test. Smaller Postoffices In County May Close Pate of at least six and perhaps more of Lewis county's smaller post, offices is apparently being deliberated by postal authorities under the department's new move for national efficiency and economy, but nothing appeared certain Saturday. One thing was a fact: -A postal department inspector was in the county and checked the smaller offices during the week, but his recommendations will be made directly to the department.

Rumors Are Many What the changes might be were mostly rumor and guesses, with said Ethel postoffice will close, with Winlock taking up the slack. May Consolidate A second rumor was much thi same as the first. Silver Creek Mayfield and AjUine would be closed in favor of Mossyrock. Alpha would go to Onalaska, but Cineba: would stay. Ethel might stay, or bi sent to Winlock or be operated directly from Chehalis postoffice.

Figures supplied the Daily Chronicle in the past show that Silver Creek postoffice handles 33 box holders and has 46 on two star routes. Mayfield has 22 box holders and 56 on a star route nothing official beyond the fact Ajlune has 48 on a star route, with postal workers familiar with the no box holders. Alpha has 13 box How and movement in the county holders and 72 on a star route. Cine- of mail, agreeing discontinuation is probably in the offing for some smaller postoffices, or at least some will be consolidated. One rumor had the postoffices at Silver Creek, Mayfield and Ajlune being discontinued, with their present services being operated from Mossyrock postoffice.

The same story said both Alpha and Cinebar offices also would be closed and, the future, Onalaska's postoffice would handle their mails. Still in the same line of reasoning, it was bar has 45 star routers and no box holders. Ethel has 20 box holders and 65 on the star route. At the time the estimates were furnished the. Daily Chronicle, II was said that each of the fourth class postoffices cost the federa' government $2,500 a year.

Since thai time the cost appears to have gone up with the coming of straight salaries for postmasters. Previously, at fourth class offices, the postmaS' ters were paid according to the numer of cancellations. Says He Was Photographer For Spy Ring ALBANY, N.Y. Felix A. Inslerman confessed to Sen.

(AP WIREPHOTO) Postmaster Office Settled in Centralia In a telegram from Washington, D. Saturday, Congressman Bussell V. Mack announced he has Francis Moses for permanent appointment as Cen- ralia's postmaster, leaving only ormal Senate confirmation to complete an action that will give the its first full-fledged postmaster iince 1949, whsn Postmaster AI ilson passed away. Moses is for the time being to remain acting postmaster, a position le assumed last May 1. succeeding Mrs.

Marie Fusco who served as acting postmaster after the death if Filson. Exam Results Given Congressman Mack said his se- ceptionally high, with Moses having an additional 10 points as a war veteran on top of his regularly scored 96 total. Laws give veterans preference, and, where a veteran is high on the list, as Moses was, a Congressman cannot pass over the veteran without strong cause. Three Test Reid Since the death of Filson, three examinations for the postmaster- ship were held. The first was in 1950, the second in 1952 and the third was last year.

Moses is a native of the Centralia district and attended local schools. For years he was with the J. C. Penney organization in Nevada and California. He is a veteran of World War I and II, ection was based upon report of holding the rank of major in the Pacific theatre during World War examination grades by the U.

Chairman Langer (R-ND) said the vote to make a favorable recommendation was not unanimous, but he declined to disclose the vote. Sen. Welker (R-Idaho), a member of the full committee who sat in on the closed session, told a reporter however the vote was unanimous. "I know what I'm talking about," Welker said.

A furious row boiled up in the subcommittee Friday after unchecked charges against Warren, former Republican governor of California, were placed in the public record on Langer's order. er the 8-year-old heir to a rum fortune was seized for $50,300 ransom. The servant was chauffeur Gull- lermo Rodriguez, 23, a dishonorably discharged Navy veteran who was at the wheel of station wagon in which the tousle-haired boy vanished on his way to a fashionable private school at 8 a.m. yesterday. Accused of conspiracy In the frustrated plot, Rodriguez was shot to death "while attempting to escape" soon after Facundo was restored to his parents, hungry but safe and sound.

A jobless youth nabbed while walking the boy along a suburban road was jailed in a barracks. Army officials said Rodriguez, tossed out of the Navy as a marijuana peddler and gambler some months before the Bacardi family hired him, died under a hail of soldiers' bullets when he made a break for liberty in the country while re-enacting his part in the crime. Survivor Faces Prosecution The surviving prisoner, Manuel Echevarria, 20, faces prosecution under a law providing a maximum of 12 years for kidnaping. To Facundo, the day was one of hiking and hunger. "There was lots and lots of walking and I got real tired hungry," he said.

"The men did not harm me in any way, but they gave me nothing to eat. I am just fine now." Not a penny ransom was paid. Jury List for Spring Court Term Finished any advance knowledge of the plan. Langer said the full judiciary committee would meet next Wednesday to consider Warren's nomination, submitted to the Senate by President Eisenhower on Jan. 11.

But Langer later told reporters he had voted "merely to refer this to the full committee for action." Langer said Warren's'confirma- tion had been recommended "by a majority." Asked what would happen to the sensational charges made public late Friday, Langer said: "They are all in the file if the full committee wants to do anything with them." Sen. Eastland, had described the charges as a "lot of rubbish." Sen. Watkins (R-Utah) also had denounced them as "a lot of torn- myrot." Langer said that committee Meets Wednesday, he would favor an open or public session but this decision would be left to the members.

Welker said the motion to recommend Warren's nomination favorably to the full committee was made by Watkins and seconded da Wright, di, vice president of the family's I Hatuey Brewery in Santiago, hadi Both De ut Atty.
