His part this time was a fat
one and he played it beautifully.
All I'm hoping is that his future
TV career will not consist en-
tirely of roles of this type. His
dead-pan delivery and wonder

$4,000 to Free Man
Sought, Police Told

A report that q 23-year-old
construction worker has beer
kidnapped for $4,000 ransom was
under investigation today by
Fairfax County police and the
Federal Bureau of Investigation
According to police the miss
ing man is James c. Stanley
who lives at Ida in Fairfax
County and works for M. T,
Broyhill g. Sons. \
Fairfax Detective 1t. Graf
ton Wells said the missing mans
wife, Mrs. Lorraine Stanley. told
police she received a telephone
call last night from an un-
identified man who told her to
raise $4,000 if she did not want
to find her husbands body in
the Potomac River. 1t. Wells
said Mrs. Stanley told police
her husband talked with her on
the telephone at the same time,
told her he was tied up, and
urged her to get in touch with
his mother.
Mrs. Stanley said she last saw
her husband when he left home
around noon yesterday to visit
someone In Alexandria who owed
him money. She told police she
heard nothing of him until the
telephone call at 2 pm. The
caller warned Mrs. Stanley not
to call police If she wanted to
see her husband alive again, po-
lice were told.
1t. Wells said Mrs. Stanley
was afraid to call police, SO she
telephoned Mr.. Stanley's mother,
Mrs. Ada Stanley, at Clintwood,
Va. The. mother got in touch
with Sheriff John c Rose at
Clintwood, who notified Fairfax
County police.
Sheriff Rose said the missing
mans parents, Hobert and Ada
Stanley, were substantial citizens
Of Clintwood, who owned trielr
own farm and lived comfortably.
He said they probably could
raise $1,000 by mortgaging their
property, but they did not ap-
pear to be wealthy people.
So far, the missing mans wife
has received no instructions
about where to pay any ransom,
according to police.

CHAIRMAN CALLS
MEETING THURSDAY,
MAINLY FOR TALK

The House District Com
mittee, at long last, today
scheduled a meeting of the
full committee for Thurs
day at 1890 am. but with
out any assurance that 1t
would even discuss the an
nual issue over granting the
District a so-called home
rule form of government.
Two other issues, are ex-
pected to be taken up at
least for discussion.
One is the bill of Repre-
sentative Morrison, Demo-
crat, Of Louisiana, to. au-
thorize development Of a
cultural center in the Dis
trict and to create a COM
mission to select a site and
plan the structure.
Another proposes a big
pay raise for judges Of the
city courts.
The home rule issue was
another matter. A commit
tee member could bring it
up, but the committees re-
action could only be pre-
dicted on this background:
The Senate has passed sew
efal home-rule bills in one
form or another, but all have
died in the House District
Com mittee. Today one
House spokesman said: Let's
wait and see what the SEN
ate does"
Last week IA civic leaders
who want home rule wrote
House District Committee
members urging that hear
ings be set on the issue.
There has been no official
reply.
The Senate District Com
mittee weeks ago held hear
ings on a bill to elect a nine
member city council, a
mayor, a nine = member
Board of Education and a
non-voting District delegate
in the House. The full COM
mittee is expected to ap-
prove the bill at its meeting
tomorrow at IL am.
