Fleshman James. is a native of St. Ritepoint, has notified the industrial committee of the Hermann Chamber of Commerce it will not exercise its option to purchase the building on Jefferson street, here before' the expiration of its present 10-year lease on July 31, 1958. Announcement of Ritepoint's decision came in a letter from John W.

Dingeldine, former manager of the local Ritepoint plant, to C. M. Bassman, chairman of the Chamber's industrial development committee. Ritepoint has made extensive efforts to secure another industry for the building since it ceased operations locally last spring but unsuccessful. Some machinery and equipment used by Rite- point remains here but will be moved out "within short time utter the expiration of the lease.

Bassman said the industrial committee is now negotiating with R. O. Boggs, owner of Metalworks, regarding a lease of the Rite- point building. The Metalworks, plant is now operating in the Faes building on Market street but larger quarters are desired to enable the shop to expand. At present, Boggs is employing 'about 15 persons.

Ritepoint, faced with the inability to secure additional government contracts for the plant here, began laying off workers late last year and by early only a few employees remained on the payroll. The firm began operations here as Hermann Products Co. in August, 1948. The name of the plant later was changed to Ritepoint, and at the height of its operations over 300 persons were employed in three shifts as work continued 24 hours a day. Two changes of personnel in the St.

George parish here were announced this week by the Provincial Office of the Franciscan Fathers in Louis. They involve Father Bonaventure Draude and Brother Damein Lambrecht. Father Bonaventure, 0. F. assistant pastor here since -November, 1956, has been transferred to St.

Farm Net Income Shows Jump In First 6 Months WASHINGTON (AP) The Agriculture Department reported today that farmers' net income in the first half of 1958 was 22 per cent higher than in the first half of 1957. But in arriving at this increase, the department revised downward its previous estimates of income earned last year. Of the'22 per cent increase, about 15 per cent reflected actual gains over last year's tentative figures, and" 7 per cent reflected revisions in last year's estimate. The department said net amount available for spending after deduction of all production- at the annual rate of $13,300,000,000 the first half of this year. 1 It said the income during the first half of 1957 had been at the annual rate of about $10,850,000,000 instead, of the 11 billions previously estimated.

Downgrading of last year's earnings reflected new data supplied by the 1954 census of agriculture, as well as better information on the quantity and value of home- consumed farm products, and some increases in production The revised figure put net income 'for the full year last year at $10,800,000,000 compared with 11 previously estimated. This'put last year's earnings down 10 per cent from the previous year instead of 4 per cent reported earlier. A the big increase this year over last year's revised income estimate reflected delayed marketings of "some such as corn and cotton, from last year's late harvests. The department said farm production expenses during the first half of this year were 4 per cent higher than in the like period last year. WASHINGTON (AP) Farm exports declined 15 per cent during the fiscal year ended July 1.

Preliminary government reports indicate that foreign sales for the year totaled four billion dollars, down 700 millions from the previous year's record high. Major declines were in wheat, cotton and rice. This decline, which has been apparent for several months, served to point up a lag in shipments under the agricultural trade development program which expired June 30. Under this program, the government sells farm, surpluses for foreign currencies to countries having inadequate supplies of dollars. Agriculture Department officials cited this export downturn in new appeals to Congress to extend the trade act.

The Senate has passed a bill to extend it, but the matter is tied up in the House. Fresh Paint Eases Trujillo's Pain SAN PEDRO, Calif. Rafael Trujillo already gleaming yacht sported a fresh coat of paint today. Also a 24- hour lookout. Crewmen slapped the paint on in a hurry yesterday to cover up the words, "Zsa Zsa Slept Here," which someone lettered in red paint on the sleek hull of the luxurious craft.

The sign painter apparently worked from a small boat that slipped in unnoticed. First inkling Trujillo had of the prank was when a boatload of news photographers drew alongside to take pictures. In Hollywood, actress Zsa Zsa Gabor, assuming, as did everyone else that the sign referred to "her, said she had never slept aboard the yacht. Washington Sleuths Normally Shun Fanfare WASHINGTON (NEA) The Bernard Goldfine "bugging" incident has turned the spotlight on a group of men who normally operate behind the scenes and without fanfare. v.

These are the investigators for the committees of House and Senate, the men who dig up the information that when posed in the form of questions by legislators make the headlines in the nation's press. There are some 70 investigators currently employed Congress, but they rarely wind 1 up on the front pages as did Baron Shack-' lette, the recently-resigned agent for the House subcommittee probing the Adams-Goldfine case Shacklette was forced out of his job after he was caught with a microphone planted to record conversations in the hotel suite of a member of Goldfine's entourage. But the idea that hidden microphones, telephone "taps" and similar "cloak and dagger" paraphernalia are the- regular tools of congressional investigators is firmly disputed by counsels to some top committees. JRobert F. Kennedy, who direct the staff of the groups, declares: Senate rackets "BIG HUNTER" LLOYD FURR shows how he fished eavesdroppers' microphone from under Goldline's liotel door.

"Congressional investigation is a lot of hard routine work. In my estimation, secret mikes should never be used committee never uses them." Kennedy said that about 70 per cent of his investigators' work involves painstaking examination of countless books and records. The rest is spent in questioning wit- Satellites of Future On Drawing Board MOFFETT FIELD, Calif. (AP) There ARE some things that look like flying saucers. Shiny, hollow spheres 12 feet in diameter.

Smaller ones 2Va feet across. Arid a saucer shaped affair 30 feet in diameter is on the drawing boards. Some of various shapes as large as 100 feet in diameter have "been proposed. These are satellites of the very near future. Some of them have been suggested for use as interplanetary craft and for voyages to the moon.

Those already completed belong to the National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics, a government agency. Motion pictures of the first ones to be tested aground were shown yesterday for the first' time at the triennial inspection of Ames Aeronautical Laboratory, an NACA installation. Made of thin, tough plastic and covered with aluminum foil, these objects are featherweights. The 12-footer weighs only nine pounds. The sphere weighs 11 ounces.

He says: "We don't use mikes or wire taps. We do not engage in surveillance work due to our limited are a staff. We don't carry guns. And we do not commit burglary. "Congressional investigating is about 99 per cent hard work withj a very limited amount of glamour attached to it."

One of these is private detective Lloyd Furr, the man who torney Roger Robb, who is masterminding the Goldfine presentation to the committee and the press. There have been occasions In the past when committee sleuths have hit the headlines. The most notable in recent years, were members of the staff of the late Sen. Joseph R. McCarthy when he headed the Permanent Investigations Subcommittee.

Many of the committee agents are accustomed to working behind the scenes and without glamour, for they are ex-FBI men or police officers. The Senate rackets group, for example, employs 20 former G-men and eight ex-cops. These men know that investigative work places a premium on shoe leather, patience and a kid's knack for asking endless questions. Kennedy noted that the most exciting thing that had happened to one of his investigators was that a speeding automobile tried to run him down. But this was, he drastic exception to the general rule.
