WHO is DR.. Price, who dares

"Dr. Price uses no oratorical

Adapting From Periods
BY BETTY PEPIS
Contributing Writer

Drawing the line between
: traditional and modern fur
niture becomes increasingly
; difficult. Now that modern
furniture has become in
creasingly decorative - and
7ornamented - many Of the
decorations and ornaments
echo former periods.
Similarly so-called tradi-
tional pieces have absorbed
many Of the assets Of mod
ern day technology: new
methods Of upholstery, new
ways Of engineering furni-
ture frames. Period furni-
ture has been rescaled, too,
to fit more comfortably into
t, low-ceilinged, limited area
living rooms.
Pieces foreign to earlier
periods also surprisingly turn
up in traditional designs. A
typical example is the Sec
tional sofa, unknown until
the goth century. but now
available in French Provin-
cial. Early American, and
Louis Seize; this reporter
has yet to find q late Victo-
ria sofa in parts.
!, The ubiquitous coffee table,
focal point Of many of to-
days living rooms, is an
other type of furniture with
no roots in the past. The
very first examples Of this
low slung table appeared only
about 30 years ago. To I'LL
the need, makers Of tradi-
tional groupings have
adapted the bases of taller
tables and invented" deco
rative tops Of parquet wood,

World War II, when the aver
age impatient day rate was SO,
costs have climbed so much
that the Nationwide average
is now $28.l7.
He noted that with more
people covered by health insur-
ance, more are taking advan-
tage of disqualification. The in
creasing number of aged, who
are largely uninsured, are also
a factor in higher cost, as well
as an average increase Of 10
per cent a year in new dag
noStic procedures.
In his paper Dr.. Anderson
said that patients today are de-
manding luxury services, many
of which add very little to their
recovery. Another factor, he
said, was unnecessary hospitali-
zation, which exists although
no patient admits it and very
few doctors admit it.

probably were obtained for very
few of these. Most of the wire
taps were for the purpose of
catching criminals, he said,
adding that wiretaps for the
purpose of shakedoWns play a
minor role"
Legal in Massachusetts,
He claimed he found district
attorneys and police using wire
taps in California, although it is
a felony in that State. In Bos-
ton, he said, there was very
little" Wiretapping by the po-
lice but more by the Suffolk
County (Boston) district attor-
pey and the Massachusetts
State police. He noted that
wiretapping is legal in Massa-
chusettS, but that there have
been public disclaimers of its
use.
Mr.. Dash said that in Louis
lana and in San Francisco and
Boston he found electronics ex-
perts working for private in
veStigatorS. He said "expend-
able transmitters" can be built
for $40 and hidden without
wiring behind pictures in
rooms, sending by radio to re-
corders in nearby vehicles dis
guised as plumbers trucks.
Telephone company employees
were reported sometimes taking
fee from the police to tap a
phone, and then taking another
fee from the person being
tapped to inform him of the
police activity.
Mr.. Dash said Frank HoganI
district attorney, and Edward
Silver, Kings County district
attorney, had co-operated in
his study, but that he had had
very little corporation" from
New York Police Commissioner
Stephen P. Kennedy. He said
he understood Mr.. Kennedy's
position, which was that too
much publicity about wire-
tapping would be helpful to
criminals.
In Chicago, Police Commits
Sioner Timothy j. O'Connor
denied his department uses
wiretapping in its operations.
Strict orders prohibit any
member of our department
from using electronic detection
Devices" he said. 1T is not
permitted and it is not toler-

CAP).-Paul N. Dwyer, 40, his
life sentence for murder COM
muted after % years, today re-
entered the outside world he
left as a teen-age boy.
A former deputy sheriff was
later imprisoned for the same
killing-the murder of a ST.
year-old doctor, James G. Lit
tlefield-and subsequently re-
leased on the grounds he didn't
have fair trial.
Dwyer insisted he changed
his plea from not guilty to
guilty at his trial % years ago
because he feared violence from
the deputy, who was also his
jailer.
The one-time teen-ager de-
voted years in prison to the
study of law and commercial
subjects.
Marriage Planned
Dryers sentence had been
commuted by Gov. Clinton A.
Clauson and the executive
council.
He was 18 when he was SEN
fenced in 1887 for the bludgeon
Staying of DR.. Littlefield. He
had not even finished high
school.
Now 40 years old, Dwyer will
work as manager of the 33-
room Stone Hotel in Norway,
Me, only few miles from Paris
Hill. where he was born and
raised and where DR.. Littlefeld
was killed.
He hopes to marry an old
hometown friend, Mrs. Caro-
line Pinkos, SO, a divorce and
mother of three daughters, but
the marriage may have to wait.

ton and Parole says: 1T is in
his best interests to delay the

ceremony a reasonable length
of time"
Only Living Principal
Dwyer is the only living prin-
cipal in Names most notorious
crime case.
His freedom follows by nine
years the release of the former
deputy sheriff, Francis M. Car
roll, who was convicted and
sentenced to life in the same

testimony. Each blamed the
other for the crime.
Carroll served IL years. for
the doctors Staying. He was re-
leased in 1850. however, on a
claim that he was fraudulently
convicted. Carroll died in 1856.
Dwyer was arrested in North
Arlington, N. j., % years ago
this month in a car that con-
tained the bodies of DR.. Little
field and his wife Lydia.
Shifts Plea to Guilty
After two days of trial at
South Paris. Me, for the doc
tors death, Dwyer changed his
plea to guilty and accepted a
life sentence.
He said later he changed his
plea to guilty in fear of vio-
lence to himself and his
mother. Mrs. Jessie Mann. now
of Worcester, Mass. by Carroll,
who was his jailer.
Several months later, Carroll
was arrested on a charge of
incest with his daughter, who
was Dryers girl friend.
Carroll was indicted for mur-
der instead of incest. At the
trial, Dwyer testified the peace
officer killed DR.. Littlefeld be-
cause the doctor had learned
of the alleged incest.
Dwyer also claimed Carroll
killed Mrs. Littleheld because
she was suspicious of what
happened to her husband. No
