SoIIy's Body, Fans lin Politics

San Francisco, June 27. (UP)- The Campaign against Bubble dancer Sally Rand's nudity turned political today.
 Her lawyer, J. w. (Jake) Ehr- lich, charged the police were using Sally's body as a "big plot" to dis credit District Attorney Edmund (Pat) Brown in his campaign for attorney general of California.
 Asked who was directing the plot, he said:
 "Ill not name any names, but I'll say more than police, I'll say police chief"
 Ehrlich was then asked if he meant Charles Dullea, San Fran cisco police chief.
 T said no names, please he said But said chief didn't IF" Miss Rand, the blonde who waves her fans for the fans, said. Whats the matter with my body? How did it get into politicS?"
 Just think" she sighed. Sally s body a campaign issue" Sally, shying away from another arrest at her early show last night came out on the stage in the usual blue lights and filmy white gown.
 But when she reached the top of the 13 steps in the View Platforms where she usually diSrobes-She turned to face the audience. There was stunned silence. In stead of the little flesh colored patch'' that usually covers a small part of her, she was wearing a placard.

Investi gators oQuizChild Butcherer

Phoenix AriZ., June N.-CUP)- Chicago investigators arrive today to question Richard R. Thomas, who claims he is the kidnap- butch erer of six-year- Suzanne Deg nan.
 Police It. Phil Olsen and Assistant States Attorney Edward Healy are due to arrive by plane. They will question Thomas in an attempt to determine whether he actually is the slayer.
 Suzanne was Kidnapped from her Chicago home last Jan. 6. Her body was dissected and dumped into sew CTS in the neighborhOod of her home.
 Authorities here, at first doubtful of Thomas story because of discrep- ancies and inconsistencies, said they were beginning to believe he was telling the truth.
 Thomas handwriting bears a striking resemblance" to the Deg nan ransom notes if he writes lefS- handed, said Sheriff E. w. Roach.
 "Just on the spur of the moment. we had him copy the note left-hand- ed. There was a striking resem- blance," the sheriff said.
 Up to now was as skeptical as the rest of the boys. But now I am convinced that we have a good thing and there is good chance we are not on a wild goose chase"
 The two Maricopa County sher- ifs deputies who took Thomas confession could not agree on whether he was telling the truth.
 T have hunch he is not the man." said Deputy Stanley Kimball
 Tim becoming more and more convinced he is the man," said Dep uty Forest Castle.
 Doubts were based on differences between Thomas handwriting and that of the kidnap note, discrepan- cies between his story and the facts and the statement of supervisor at Chicago's Woodlawn Hospital who said Thomas was working there when the crime was committed.

Reds Erase
 Republics

London, June 'N7(UP The Moscow radio said today that the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet had ratified the abolition of the Chechen- -Ingush autonomous Sovi- ct republic and transformation of the Crimean autonomous republic into the Crimean region.
 The changes were made because many of the inhabitants voluntarily fought with the Germans against the Red Army. They first were dis closed in March, 1924, by the pub lication of official Soviet maps.
 A Tass dispatch broadcast from Moscow said Me. Bakhmurov, Sec- retary of the Presidiu1n of the Su- preme Soviet of the Russian Fed eration, disclosed details of the treachery yesterday.
 Many Chechens and German Tartars, iYlstigated by German agents, joined volunteer detach- ments set up by the Germans and jointly with German troops waged an armed struggle against Red Army units," Bakhmurov said. Fol lowing German instructions, they set up saboteur gangs to fight against the Soviet power in the rear.
 'The bulk of the Chechen-Ingush and Crimean population did not of- fer opposition to these traitors. In view of this, the Chechens and Cri- mean TartarS were transported to other districts of the Soviet Union, where they were allotted land and rendered the necessary state assist ance in economic settlement"
