New Hope Given
Father Doomed
In Staying Buby

The United States Court of
Appeals yesterday gave a ray
of hope to Jesse w. Woods, who
is now under death sentence
for the 1852 knife-slaying of his
baby daughter.
The tribunal ordered the
case remanded to United States
District Court to determine
Woods:
/. Mental competency at the
time of his trial.
2. Mental competency to be
sentenced.
8. Mental competency to be
executed.
Several days ago, United
State Attorney Oliver Gasch
asked that the determinations
be made on the basis of PSYCHE
atric examinations given Woods
while he was in District Jail.
Before his original trial,
Woods had been determined
mentally competent to stand
trial. But this determination
was made some three months
before the trial actually be-
gun, leaving a possibility that
his mental condition may have
deteriorated in the interim.

Farm Output
Continues at
Record Pace
BY the Associated Press

The Nations farmers are
continuing their record produc-
ton pace.
The Governments crop fore
casters report this years har-
vest will again fill storage facil-
tiles and load American tables
to record proportions, near or
equal to last years all-time
output.
In its october / crop report
issued late yesterday, the Agri-
culture Department said over
all agricultural production has
edged up to last years record
level with corn setting the pro-
duction pace.
Record Crop
This years estimated corn
crop is nearly as billion BUSH
els, a record. The Crop Report
ing Board put corn output at
II per cent above last year and
a whopping 36 per cent above
the l948-1957 average.
Corn, as a principal livestock
feed grain, also figures large in
the future trend Of livestock
production and meat prices.
Customarily, bumper feed
grain crops mean big livestock
supplies and lower butcher
shop prices in the future, be-
cause farmers find it more ad-
yantageous to feed cheap and
plentiful grain supplies to hogs
and cattle than to sell it.
The Agricultural Crop Re-
porting Board said the record
corn crop, and large sorghum
and barley crops, far overoal-
ance a relatively small produc-
ton of oats. The october !
corn supply on farms, includ-
ing carryover, also totaled a
record 4,43O,O0O,O0o bushels
644 million more than in 1858
Wheat Output Down
While corn crops zoomed
wheat production was nearly
| 25 per cent below last year
with total output forecast at
1.117,OOO,00O bushels. Reduced
acreage yields, due to weather
and disease, was the cause.
oranges will be plentiful.
The national crop Of early and
midseason oranges was fore
cast at nearly 68.5 million
boxes-more than 3 per cent
above last season. Orange pro-
duction increased in Florida,
Texas and Arizona. but showed
a decrease in California navel
oranges.
The fall potato crop is fore
cast at 9 per cent below last
years crop, but still 10 per cent
above average. Egg production
rose in September above the
comparable figure for 1858
while milk production con-
tinued at about its 1858 rate.

PerishabIes
Get Priority
0nU. S. Docks

NEW YORK, Oct. 10 (AP).-
Perishables continued to receive
priority today as longshoremen
loaded and unloaded a backlog
of cargo that had accumulated
during their eight-day strike.
Ports from Maine to Texas
came back to life yesterday as
$4,000 lockers obeyed a Federal
Court order enjoining the strike.
Rain handicapped the opera
tons at some Atlantic ports.
Priority was given IL vessels
that had arrived here and at
Southern ports with $50 million
in perishables, mostly bananas.
In some cases, the fruit was
near spelling. Shippers estimate
the strike cost them about $l60
million.
Taft-Hartley Invoked
President Eisenhower in
voked the aft-Hartley law
Tuesday against the Interna-
tional Longshoremen's ASsocia-
ton. A temporary restraining
order was obtained here Thurs
day night. A hearing, sched-
uled in Federal District Court
here next Thursday, is expected
to complete the legal steps for
a cooling-off period that will
ban further striking by the
LILA until December %.
Contract talks are scheduled
to resume here October 10.
The strike began October
when Southern longshoremer
walked off the piers because
shippers declined to assure
retroactivity in any new con.
tract. Longshoremen at North.
ern ports followed suit, al.
though they had been granted
retroactivity and had agreed
earlier to extend the old con-
tract to october Is.

Show Producer Says He Approved
HeIDinu Contestants in Advance

called before a New York grand
jury not to tell the truth
about receiving assistance.
"All I ask is for you to try
to understand the terror and
panic that seized us in those
days." Mr.. Enright said.
The witness said he was sur
prised at the naivete of network
and advertising executives who
have testified they were
shocked" to learn of the rig
ging. He did not normally find
them naive" people to deal
with, he said, but he declined
to say that any Of them could
not have failed to know what
was going on.
The producer, under ques-
tioning, said he thought indus
try rather than Government
control was the best way to
regulate such programs.

System and the street car and

failed to reach any agreement
during a three-hour contract
negotiating session.

day.

ask an hourly wage increase Of

three-year contract.
The present contract calls

tration clause in event no
agreement can be reached.

FIT. SILL, Okla, Oct. 10
(AP).-A top prize winner on
a television quiz show now
under fire says he didn't get
any help and would have been
worried had it been offered
him.
Army Capt. Michael O'Rourke
said yesterday he never got any
answers or saw any Of the
questions on Tic Tao Dough.
He won $1O6,500 between
December 1857 and April 1858.
Capt. O'Rourke said If any
rigging had been suggested, Il
would have drawn one OF
two conclusions-either they
wanted to help me or they
wanted to dump me-"
The Office said the thought
of a fixed program never
crossed my mind, initially.
Later a couple of people said,
They gave you the questions,
didn't they?' But just figured
that was the way they are
in New York. You know, Gym
ical."
PORTLAND, Greg, Oct. 10
(AP) "A 14-year-old boy, now
"a Reed College freshman here,
who won $164,001 on two tele-
vision quiz shows, says he re-
ceived no coaching.
There was no coaching
whatsoever" said Leonard Ross,
the son of Mr.. and Mrs. William
Ross, Tujunga, Calf.
He said yesterday that he
wrote The $4,000 Challenge,
saying he would like to appear
A letter came back suggesting
an interview, so he and his
mother few to New York.
When he found it would be
two weeks before he could ap-
pear. he went on The Big Sur
prise and won 100000 in -four
sessions and 81 for a guest
appearance.
Later he won the $4,000 prize
on the other show. Both shows
now are off the air.
Leonard said the only ques-
ton he asked before the show
was if he should wear a tie, but
got no answer. Other talk, he
added, was only "chit-chat
questions about family" His
money, after taxes, is in a trust
fund until he is 81.

Enright was questioned only
about the Tic Tao Dough show.
He had testified in a closed

gram and, subcommittee
members indicated. about Mr..
Van Doren's participation on
the show.
Mr.. Enright, nervous and
sometimes emotional as a wit

Both Twenty-One and Tic

WOOL YEAR
WILL END MARCH RI

Leo S. Kolstad, Agricultural Sta
bilization and Conservation ad-
ministrative officer. this week re-
minded wool producers the un-
shorn lambs and wool marketed
by March 81 will be eligible for
incentive payments under the 1858
program.
The 1858 wool marketing year,
he explained, covers the period
April /. 1858, through March 80,
1859. Wool and unshorn lambs
marketed after March 81 will be
eligible for payment under the
1859 incentive payment program.
Payments under the 1858 pro-
gram will be made next summer
after the national average price
received by producers for wool
marketed in 1858 is determined.
The payment rate will be the
amount needed to bring the ma
tional average return for produc-
ers up to the incentive level Of 81
cents per pound of wool. The
| payment rate for the 1857 market
ing year was $3.50 for each 500
received by the producer for the
sale of shorn wool.
If any conditio. concerning a
wool or lamb sale is not COM
| pleted by March 81, the sale will
not be considered as completed.
Title must pass to the buyer, the
wool or lambs must have been
delivered to the buyer (either
physically or through documents)
and all factors needed to deter
mine the total purchase price must
be available.
Producers are urgd to bring
sales documents to their County
ASC office Immediately after
completing a sale, Kolstad said.
Applications for payment may be
made Immediately and the inform
alton on sales price can be used
to determine the national average
price, a determination which must
be made before the incentive rate
can be calculated. Applications
for payment under the 1858 in
centive program must be filed
with the producers county office
not later than April 80, 1859, to
be eligible under the program.
