CANON CITY. Colo, Jan. IL
RJ.-This is the last day of life
for John Gilbert Graham, con-
demned slayer of A persons.
Graham was sentenced to die
this week for the murder Of his
53-year-old mother, Mrs. Daisie
King. She was one OF the A
persons aboard the United Air
Lines plane blown to bits Novem-
Der l, 1855. over a Northern
Colorado beet field.
Colorado custom is to carry
out executions Friday night.
Graham, "a. had no special re-
quests on the eve of his execu-

Warden Harry Tinsley said
Graham, in response to questions
during a l5-minute visit yester-
day. asked for' no special last
meal or any fresh reading ma
terial.
The warden quoted the father
of two children as saying he'd
just as soon" have the same
food as other prisoners.
Another visitor was The Rev.

the church where Graham and
his young wife Gloria were mar

Mcdonald Case
Probers Hunt ;

LOS ANGELES. Jan. IL (P.-
Police are hoping to talk to a
sandwich maker, a service sta
ton attendant and. landlord
who might fit into Marie Nc
Donald'S story of being kidnapped
from her home.
Detectives would like to find:
The person who made the tur-
key sandwiches Miss Mcdonald
says her kidnapers fed her.
The man who put gas in the
old. green car the blond movie
actress says was used to trans
port her from small house in
s.os Angeles to a desert highway
near Indio, where she was found
last Friday night.
And. possibly. the landlord of
the house where she says two
swarthy kidnapers held her while
planning to ransom her for
$4,000.
Police said yesterday that
Miss Mcdonald told them the
house had no food in it and
might not have been regularly
occupied. This might indicate
that the house was rented for
a hideaway, detectives said.
Earlier she said that the men
listened to radio reports of her
Thursday night disappearance
and decided to leave Los Angeles,
abandoning her in the desert
because she was too hot"
Chief Of Detectives Thad
Brown said that under Cali
fornia's little Lindbergh law"
kidnapers face the death pen
atty in cases where their victim
is injured. He said that the
law applies to Miss McDonaldis
case because she was beaten
during her disappearance.

DATELINE PARIS
Queens Visit Still Being Discussed;
Royal Marriage Rumor Is Denied

PARIS.-This city is just one
big human interest story.
The last week Paris has pro-
duced a story Of special inter-

Australian research scholar
told a group Of Paris doctors
that ''heavy cigarette smokers
suffer less from colds, infiu-
enza. bronchitis. laryngitis and
other respiratory complaints
than do nonsmokers but they
suffer more from coughs"
Another story will raise
cheers from those human
beings who are fed up with the
fast brush-off from adver-
tisers who advertise more
service than they actually
give. An English family sued
d British airline and a French
airline for not giving them an
epicurean flight as promised

payne lunch and fine French
food they got late afternoon
lukewarm tea, q bun and but

of this situation is that many of
US, including congressman and
state legislators, preach economy
in government but at the same
time are trying to dig into the
public treasures to finance prof.
ects or activities in which we are
particularly interested. We have
plausible arguments in support of
these demands, usually that what
we propose would benefit the
economy and hence would be
wise investment. Indeed, we still
want economy, but it should be
applied elsewhere.
AS to governmental functions
under Montana state law, no
one will deny that the financial
needs are great, influenced sig
nificantly by the shrunken dol
lar because of initiation. Here.
too, there is the swelling cry for
economy, but governmental costs,
cannot be stabilized, much less
reduced, if we keep on demand
ing more and more services from
government. This situation will
never be corrected until the peo-
pie at the grassroots overwhelm-
ingly insist on it and back it up
with consistent action.
Appropriations by the 1857 leg
lslature exceeded by approx
mately third those of the 1855
assembly and new or additional
taxes calculated to make up the
difference were levied. Since
adjournment of the assembly the
legislators, am informed, have
encountered considerably critic
ism from their constituents. This
is obviously part of the general
reaction against rising govern
mental costs as reflected in taxes.
With the Democrats in numeri-
cal control of both houses of the
legislature last winter and a Re-
publican in the governors chair
each party is blaming the other
for the state fiscal situation about |
which there is now SO much |
Both parties are to |
blame, but am inclined to alb
solve them in rather generous
measure because, after all, they
were confronted with pressures
so enormous that they could
hardly be expected to have the
political heorism to stand un-
yielding against these pressures.
1t is not strange if the people
