Standard-Poet Some major proposals still alive New Congress faces big load Institutions Board to hear pleas from eastern Montana WASHINGTON (AP) With the 89th Congress barely out of town after two lengthy, action- filled sessions, a solid agenda of Police hit dead end in slaying case TALLAHASSEE. Fla. (UPI1- Police hoped Monday that Mrs. Helen Sims would "miraculously" regain consciousness long enough to tell who bound, gagged, blindfolded and murdered her computer expert husband and 12-year-old daughter Joy. Detectives admitted they had no clues to what Police Chief Frank Stoutamire called "the worst crime in my 28 years of law enforcement." He said there was no apparent motive for the Saturday night slayings.

Mrs. Suns, an attractive, auburn-haired secretary to the minister of a Baptist church, wais shot twice in the head. She lay near death in the intensive care section of the Tallahhas- see Memorial Hospital and was not expected to recover. White -coated detectives, meanwhile, searched behind police barricades for clues to the slaying that shocked the quiet, middle-income Parkside neigtborhood whre Robert W. Sons directed the State Education Department's computer division.

Sims, a husky 42-year- old former teacher and coach, was a nationally recognized expert in data processing. Sheriff William P. Joyce said Sims died from a bullet wound in the head. Joy, who had been painting at the dining room table earlier that night, was shot once in the head and stabbed six times. Joyce, who clamped a tight security lid on the investigation, revealed the three victims were all bound, gagged and blindfolded with neckties, women's stockings and parts of a woman's slip.

Word of the gruesome crime sent a wave of fear over Tallahassee, and hardware stores reported a "run" on door locks and chains and hand guns. Lenz Pharmacy Health Tips BOB LENZ Registered Pharmacist major legislation already is building up for the 90th Congress which meets Jan. 10. Despite the success of this Congress in enacting measures such as Medicare, aid to education and truth-in-packaging which had appeared on congressional calendars for years, a number of major proposals remain alive with a possibility of action in 1967. Heavy Democratic losses in the Nov.

8 election, however, could hamper their chances as the administration operated in the 89th Congress with only a small working margin despite its heavy theoretical majority. And even if losses are not heavy, some administration proposals seem to have small chance. One major proposal, overhaul of the unemployment compensation program, was the subject of frantic last-minute activity as conferees vainly sought a compromise. The Senate bill accepted President Johnson's proposal for federal standards for state programs, while the House rejected that approach although it included extensions of coverage. The same basic conflict will be back next year.

Another bill scheduled for another administration push is the wild-rivers conservation measure to preserve the valleys of six major river systems. The Senate passed it in January but House Interior Committee Chairman Wayne N. Aspinall blocked it.

If 10, tehy ii there shortage of teenage boys? A. Some teenage boys must be hiding out. It's true that more boy babies are born than girl babies. The female ratio at birth is something like Because of the higher mortality of males, by mid-teens the boy- girl ratio is about At about 19 there are the same number of boys as girls. At older ages the higher mortality of males is much more apparent At ages 65 and over, for example, there are roughly two females for each male.

PRICKLY HEAT Q. What eautet prickly foot hov ii it belt treated? A. Prickly heat is due to plugging of the sweat glands. Once this occurs sweating leads to further irritation of the duct, and a vicious cycle of perspiration irritation established.

Major proposal President Johnson already has made known one of his major 1967 domestic increase of about 10 per cent in most Social Security benefits. The President didn't say how he proposes to finance the increase, and a big dispute is ex- pected over whether to hike Social Security taxes or pay the raise out of general revenues. Income taxes may be raised also. A decision is expected by President Johnson in December on whether the cost of the Viet Nam war will require an increase.

One big issue will be the draft. The present Selective Service law expires June 30 and Johnson's blue-ribbon study commission headed by former Assistant Atty. Gen. Burke Marshall is expected to report by Jan. 1.

The report will deal with such things as possible civilian service to satisfy draft obligations as well as ways of making the draft system more equitable. Most of the administration's major domestic legislation was authorized this year for two or more years. But stiff fights are expected on the appropriations bills to finance the programs.

(UPI Telephoto) State Supreme Court refuses to order special election MILES CITY (AP) Representatives of 17 eastern Montana counties will mnt with the State Board of Institutions Tuesday to press for mental retardation facilities and services in extreme eastern Montana. They seek mental health clinics in Miles City and Glasgow and a facility for the mentally retarded in Glendive, one similar to but smaller than one operated by the state in Boulder. Gerry Robbins, general manager of KXGN Radio-Television in Glendive, said the stale board at its last session approved a clinic in Miles City, but he said the organization of Montanans wants a duplicate facility in Glasgow. "Basically, we 17 counties make up 34 per cent of the total area in the state and we have roughly 105,000 residents," Robbins said. "It is too many miles to anyplace." Kalispell firm files suii in Spokane court SPOKANE, Wash.

(UPI) Mountain Manufacturing Kalispell, filed suit in Spokane County Superior Court Monday seeking damages of more than a half a million dollars from Western Major Supply Spokane. Also named defendant was John A. i described as major owner of Western. The complaint claims that Western accepted delivery of five Mountain logger machines and refused to pay either, all or part of the price for them. The complaint contended the refusal was part of a plan by Pring to force Mountain into financial difficulties and take over the firm.

Mountain asked $35,964 for three machines on which it said Western had paid nothing and lesser amounts for the other machines, and one outstanding bill. It also asked $100,000 for damage to the business or $500,000 for possible losses. The Western logger is a machine used in removing logs from difficult terrain. HELENA (AP)-A 3-2 majority of the Montana Supreme Court refused Monday to order a special Billings election Nov. 8 on fluoridation of the water supply for the Yellowstone County seat.

The unsigned order, which listed Justices Wesley Castleg and John C. Harrison as dissenting, means the vote on fluoridation of Billings city water as a dental health measure will take place April 3, 1967. The brief order, issued only a few hours after a morning hearing before all five justices, denied the relief requested by the city of Billings and dismissed the proceeding. This put back into effect a Yellowstone County District Court decision against a Nov. 8 vote in Billings on fluoridation.

At the hearing, Billings City Atty. James W. Thompson argued that Dist. Judge C. B.

Sande was wrong in ruling that Mayor Willard E. Fraser and City Clerk William Fry had no jurisdiction to order a fluoridation vote on general election day. The city's position was supported by the two dissenting justices, who felt the high court should have issued the writ requested by Thompson, who was sided in court by James A. Reno, assistant city attorney. Attorney Raymond A.

Wright, representing Sande and Francis P. Deiz, chairman of the Citizens Committee for Free Choice, defended Sande's ruling. The district court halted further proceedings in the effort of a Billings citizens Committee for Fluoridation to get the question before the voters this month. Associate Justice John C. Harrison said his view of the problem is that the city wants to take advantage of a time when a lot of people are voting while opponents apparently prefer a time when there may be very few votes.

From questions put to the lawyers by the judges, it appeared they were concerned by the fact that both referendum and initiative petitions are involved. At one point, Thompson said "the people who signed the initiative want fluoridation and those who signed the referendum don't." The citizens' group obtained 5,165 signatures on initiative petitions filed with the city Sept. 6. Three weeks later, the mayor proclaimed the special city election. Wright contended that neither the mayor nor city clerk can take any action under the law until ttie matter has been before the City council for 60 days.

Then, he said, another 28 days is needed for the proper publication.
