Casey Abbott of Avondale, committee chairman, said federal agencies generally are in accord with, such a program and that the state department already is at work on it OOPS MfOTHOUmiM The eight-man committee has been discussing- the question of importing Mexican workers with representatives of the state department, the immigration bureau and the employment service. Says Proposal Favored Abbott told a reporter that all these agencies and the justice department are favorable the proposal for "opening the border pretty liberally." He saia the committee had made a "flat demand" that a border pass system be set up under "the strict surveillance" of the employment Abbott said the proposal would not necessarily mean that no formal agreement for 1949 will be worked out with the Mexican government.

But he said it would get around "objectionable Items" in the agreement for this year which Mexico claims-has been abrogated.

Styles Claims Daughter Did Not Take Own Life LOS ANGELES (HE) Kadio Producer: Hal Styles will tell a coroner's jury Thursday why he thinks his beautiful blonde daughter Patricia did not kill herself, even though police and three -witnesses say she did. The 25-year-old actress died Monday in a hail of bullets that ended an argument with an old flame, wealthy Nathan H. Suganuan, 44.

Sugarman was wounded seriously. "I do not believe my daughter's death is simple suicide, like that," Styles declared. "My version of the facts varies from that told by Sugarman, with whom Tricia was in love. I want to tell the facts as I know them! There are too many unanswered questions to suit me." The coroner scheduled the inquest because of Styles' statement. Meanwhile, police found a small bundle of papers in the girl's purse which revealed the mental turmoil she had suffered for months, and which led her to attempt suicide previously.

They included soul searching notes, clips from psychology columns and newspaper quotes of passionate love letters from Beulah Louise Overell to George (Bud) Gollum, acquitted last year in a sensational murder case. "Tell me that I'm going to start realizing subconsciously that sleep will help me solve all my problems, and therefore I am no longer going to fear insomnia," Miss Styles' pencil note read "that I'm not going to let underlying fear of not being able to (two words undecipherable) ruin my life, because I'm going to have children just as naturally and normally as most women do." An autopsy report showed that a gun held in the girl's mouth fired the bullet that killed her. MAV 1 SIT ON YOUR RIGHT HAND?

Building Costs ToofGjMay .0. P. Senators LOS ALAMOS, N. Charges of "great waste" in costs Alamos atomic research project were leveled today by head of a congressional 'subcommittee probing operations at the center. Representative Melvin C.

Snydrr (R-W. chairman of the group, declared flatly Tuesday: "There evidence of a great waste of money here that requires corrective action." Another committee member, Representative Edgar Chenoweth said he was "appalled" by the Los Alamos operation. He reported that the firm of W. C. Kruger and associates received a monthly fee of $33,000 for a number of months as the architectural and engineering firm at the project.
