.Meacham Report

WASHINGTON R-The Airport
Use Panel said today discussions
are still under way on proposed
improvements to Meacham Field,
Key West, Fla, and that a report
will not be ready for ten days
or more.
The panel met yesterday and
the Meacham Field situation was
discussed again but there was no
information as to what took place.
Joseph Johnson, panel secretary,
told a reporter the report might
be ready on Nov. 2s.
The improvements to Meacham
would include extension OF run
way which the Navy has said
might interfere with operations at
nearby Boea Chica Naval Air
OJaIlOn.
The Navy, when asked if it has
taken an official position on the
runway extension, said the matter
is still in the discussion stage.
The panel has before it a sug-
gestion by the Air Transport Assn.
that commercial planes be allowed
to use Boca Chica.
The ATA said National Airlines
which now operates at Meacham
could fly larger planes to Key
West if Boca Chica were available.
The association has said further
that it would be a waste of federal
money to improve Meacham be-
cause of its limited use as far
as big planes are concerned.

Priest Freed
Red Jail
Tells Ordeal

HONG KONG R-The Rev. Al
bert Sohier, Belgian Roman Cath
olic missionary who emerged from
Red China this week, said today
that the report of his death pub
lished by a church society in Bel
GUM two years ago was only half
true. He was only half dead.
Father Sohier, 80, who spent 3
years and 4 months in a Com
munist Jail in Peiping, was re-
leased early this month and ar
rived here by ship. He said from
hospital bed today he did not
know why the Communists arrest
ed him nor why they released him.
He is still weak from his treat
ment in Jail. He has hump IN
his back from a dislocated verte-
bra which was not attended to.
He has chain scars on his wrists
and ankles, and slash scars on
his hips and back.
Early Arrest
Born in the Belgian Congo, So
hier went to China more than 10
years ago. He was arrested in one
of the first roundups of priests.
He was reported dead in 1852
and pamphlet on his career and
death was published in Belgium
at the time. He said he was half
dead at the time-from chains,
beating, back injuries, endless
questioning and sleeplessness.
When the Reds told him he was
being released and deported, they
instructed him to .'tell the world
that we have stopped physical tor
ture in jails."
The Communists c h arg d the
priest with a string of offenses,
from spying to sabotage, but So
hier thinks the roundup was to
eliminate resistance to Peiping's
reform church.

Fnemen Chop
Up Hotel Walls

NEW YORK R-Firemen had to
chop through walls on all 22 floors
of the Biltmore Hotel yesterday
to make sure an incinerator flue
fire was out.
A fire official said intense heat
in the flue, which extends the
height of the building, had started
the cork insulation smoldering.
The only way to make certain no
fire fingered was to stip off all
the insulation.
It was not determined what
made the intense heat in the in.
cinerator flue.
The hotel declined to estimate
the damage.

Coroner Denies
Statements On
Murder Cause
Tells Of Checking
Runlor DIR. Sheppard
Couldn't Be Father
BY RALEIGH ALLsRRooK


CLEVELAND R,-Coroner Sam
uel r. Gerber denied today that he
ever said Marilyn Sheppard was
beaten to death because she was
pregnant, but he. admitted check
ing into q rumor that her husband,
charged with the killing, was
sterile.
did YOU ever assert that the
murder was the result of the preg-
nancy of Marilyn Sehppard9"
asked William J. Corrigan, chief
defense counsel for the slain wom-
ans husband, DR.. Samuel H. Shep-
pard, 30-year-old osteopath.
Il never did," replied Gerber.
Corrigan then demanded whether
Gerber had not intimated the bru-
tai bedroom bludgeoning of July 4
was the result of the victims four
month pregnancy with her second
son.
II never heard of it," the coro-
ner answered.
Stsrility Question
The possibility of the defendants s
being sterile was touched upon at
the murder inquest last summer.
but no evidence has been intro.
duced to support or refute the
widespread rumor.
Earlier, the coroner, on the stand
for the third straight day in the
nearly five week-old trial, brought
into court a number Of articles
removed from Sheppard's lake
front home. They included q shot
gun which Gerber said was taken
from the house by DR.. Richard
Sheppard, Sans brother, and later
turned over to agshOrities.
Other items. in Gerber's coIlee-
ton were . piece of iron pipe
the coroner said was from the
defendants sports car, a Jaguar:
a riding crop, and a tire tool.
No Bloodsfains
There also were two towels Ger
Der said showed mo blood" and
. rust-stained dirty T-shirt found
near the Sheppard home and like.
wise having no blood spots. The
T-shirt was picked up the day Of
the murder in search by police
for Sheppard's missing T-shirt wit
nesses said Sheppard wore on the
night of the killing.
Corrigan blasted Gerber for fail
ing to test carpeting in the Shep.
pard house for blood stains ON the
day of the staying, and Gerber
responded:
II didn't see anything l thought
was blood, but I didn't get ON
my hands and knees to 60 over
the carpeting completely"
LUniinal Use Qusrisd
The defense counsel then asked
If it wasn't a comparatively simple
matter to expose stains in the dark
by using 4 ''luminal' spray.
The coroner said It was consid-
erably more complicated than Cor
rigan made out, and in the inter-
change asserted:
You're 100 per cent wrong i
Luminal must be used with abso. |
lutte care"
The 60-year-old coroner, the
states most important witness to |
date, has testified he found the
impression of surgical instru-
ment on the bloody pillow found |
ON slain Marilyn Sheppard's bed.
He also has supported the states |
contention that police authorities |
had to wait until four days after
the July 4 Staying to get 4 full
statement from DR.. Sheppard.
DR.. Sheppard, 30, is accused If !
killing his wife Marilyn, 81, with |
n or more blows on the head in |
the bedroom of their lakefront |
home. The murder weapon has |
