thing happened to Mrs. Put
ney . where did you put that
poor old woman?"
He denied putting her any,
where, and insisted she would
keep a pre-arranged date to
meet him in Las Vegas.
In other testimony, George
H. Goodrich. a Washington
lawyer and administrator of
Mrs. Putney's estate, estimated
the value of the widows miss
ing securities at nearly $39, 900.
Mr.. Goodrich, of 6003 Corbin
road NV, said her total estate,
including property in Florida,
amounted to nearly $4,000.
The securities, which Mrs.
Putney was believed to have
had with her on her cross
country trip with Motherwell,
have never been found, Mr..
Goodrich said. The firms
which issued them have no
records Of their being trans
ferred to anyone, and have re-
issued the certificates since
Mrs. Putney's bones were found
last August 16.
FBI Seized Documents
Documents seized by FB1
agents in Atlanta, Ca, where
Motherwell was arrested last
summer, added to the growing
collection Of Motherwell lore.
They showed that in Jack
Sonville, Fla. he was ALLEN
Michel Dubar," and in Atlanta
he was Craig Dubar Foster. /"
When arrested at the Atlanta
Airport minutes before board
ing a plane for Cleveland, he
was carrying a paper alleging
to be a "resume" Of Mr.. Dubar
1t said Mr.. Dubar was edu-
Gated in Warsaw, Poland, and
was chased out by the Germans
in 1910. Somehow, he got to
Japan in time to be held a
prisoner Of war for five years.
After two years of recuper-
alton, the document said, Mr..
Dubar went on to boost the
steel business in Cuba. His
plant, the paper said, increased
in value from $4,000 to nearly
81 million in eight years. That
was before he was chased out
by Cuban Prime Minister Fidel
Castro.
His references included Sir
Edward Thompson Of the House
of Lords, London, England;
Senator George Smathers OF
Florida, and a man named
"Zecondorf," Of Madison Ave-
nue., New York.

earthquake struck as they were
getting ready for bed Monday
night.
Mrs. Martin was reunited
with her husband at a French
airf1eld outside Agadir. 1t.
Martin had rested on a stretch
er at the field hospital through
out the day awaiting word of
his wife.
We'll, darling, you are IA
NOUS" he said as they en-
braced.
mo, I'm not" she replied,
but I'm certainly happy"
The men who had worked for
hours to reach her in the ruins
of the hotel broke into grins
and tears when they saw her
head appear at the bottom of
a 6-foot hole they had dug in
the wreckage.
Mrs. Martin was conscious
through the rescue operation
but 1t was not until she was
carried to an ambulance that
she learned an earthquake had
occurred. She did not appear
to be injured seriously.
One Of the sailors who helped
rescue her said of her: II have
rarely seen such courage"
The Martins had been stay
ing in a third-floor room of
the hotel. Mrs. Martin said
she was in the bathroom of
their suite when the building
began to culver. She started
for the door but got no farther.
She said she was trapped
with her left arm locked above
her head and her right arm
pinned close to her chest. A
door pressed against her and
kept her from moving but at
the same time prevented tons
OF rubble from crushing her.
Earlier rescuers found they
could not reach her from the
side the first digging attempt
had been made. They had to
start a new hole through the
debris from the other side. The
hours dragged on endlessly.
Finally rescue workers got
close enough to her to put hot
water bottles and blankets be-
side her in an effort to avoid
shock.
The problem from that point
on was to take the pressure off
Mrs. Martin without bringing
the surrounding rubble cas-
cading down. A call went out
for jacks. They were put in
position and slowly raised.
For an agonizing IS minutes
the door and a beam above the
woman pushed upward while
the wreckage surrounding her
creaked and groaned.
Finally there was enough
room to pull her free. 4

Fire Damages
Fairfax Home

Fire caused an estimated
$4,000 damage today to the
home Of Lewis Crosson, a State
Department attorney Of 4
Cherry drive, Fairfax County.
The Crosson family escaped
unhurt.
Mr.. CroSson carried his son,
Dean, 8, from the burning
house after the boy tried in
vain to save his pet cat.
Firemen said the blaze APP
parently spread from a furnace
in the basement.
In an earlier Fairfax County
fire. a one-story frame dwell
ing was destroyed on Route 613
near Franconia, Va. Firemen
were delayed by snow-clogged
roads in reaching the blaze.

POLARIS
Program Would Add
Billion to Budget

SUBS TO compl1cate the enemy'S
defensive efforts-all under one
commander.
Views Sincere
Neither side is Just promot-
ing itself. The argument turns
on sincere views of strategy.
Thoughtful admirals ask
what would make the best
deterrent-what would make
the Soviet Union most fear all
out nuclear war? The answer
they say is a hidden missile
aimed at the centers Of Rus
sia'S industry, government and
population.
But Air Force leaders say de-
pendence on Polaris would per-
NIT the Russians to concentrate
on anti-submarine warfare.
The Air Force also says the
city-buSting concept of the
PolariS is wrong. In an analysis
OF future big-war strategy, the
Air Force says the targets
should be the military forces
OF the enemy-the traditional
wartime targets. The war it
depicts would go like this:
Russia would hit this coun-
try's military targets-SAC
airbases and missile sites, Navy
bases and so forth. Our surviv-
ing missiles and plane would
then hit Soviet military targets.
The side with the largest num-
Der OF long-range weapons sur
vivtng this first exchange would
dictate the peace.
But If Polaris were the pri-
mary deterrent weapon, the Air
Force says, the war would 90
like this:
The Navy Argument
The SovietS would attack.
destroying as many Po!ar;ses
as possible and presumably
Gripping the small number of
land-based weapons. We would
threaten to hit Soviet cities.
The Russians would threaten
to hit our cities. There would
be a pause while each side
decided whether it was willing
to continue the fight at the
loss OF its cities. Who would
back down first? Without a
weapon capable of hitting
Soviet weapons, we might back
down.
The Navy has several an
swers: The Soviets would be
insane to risk their cities, so
the war won't start if plenty
OF Polarises are on station. The
Air Force could not hit those
targets anyhow-it
couldn't find them. The Air
Force argument against city,
busting could be turned against
the airmen's own pet proposal
the airborne alert. Those
ever-cruising bombers could be
nothing more than a small
survival force intended for re-
prisal against Russian cities.

PoLARIs
Continued from First Page

OOntlnueo from FIST rage
ate committee recently that
construction of nine subma-
rines would be possible and de-
sirable in 1861. Navy officials
are now studying a formal re-
quest for a supplemental APP
preparation Of about 81 billion
to pay for this.
In addition, it is reliably re-
ported, a request is under con-
sideration in the Navy for
money for long lead items"
for IL more subs, rather than
the three already requested.
Approval Of any new Navy
request for more Polarises is
far from a sure thing, for it
has been a controversial weap-
on since its inception. The
boss of the PolariS project, Rear
Admiral William F. Raborn,
says frankly that the Polaris is
a new strategic concept which
has the difficult task of sup
planting long entrenched Sys-
tens.
An about Polaris program
would bite deeply into the
Presidents anticipated budget
surpluSes; it would threaten
the Air Force, and possibly the
Army, with loss of funds they
consider vital, and it would
pull the rug from under the
strategic philosophy many Air
Force leaders say is basic to
the survival Of this country.
Its Best Features
A big new Polaris program
would even worry some of the
surface" admirals of the Navy
who warn against the popular
idea of an underwater fleet.
On the other hand, the Po-
!aris has attractive features
which lead some Pentagon and
congressional leaders to call
1T the wonder weapon of the
future.
1t would be cheap, because
PolariS advocates say, not many
would be needed to give this
country an adequate deterrent.

the sea and threaten the So
Wet Union with quick devasta-
ton in time of war. It would

Tort to Americans who worry
about living near a land-based
mtercontinental missile.
The Navy believes the Polaris
should become the primary
nuclear deterrent weapon, sup
planting to a large extent Stra-
teglc Air Command missiles.
But the Air Force SAYS
Polaris is neither that invul-
nerable nor that cheap. The
correct mix and the proper
STRATEGY, the generals say,
would emphasize land-based
missiles and airborne missiles

burned it.
On one trip, though, she be-

who am I to question an
elder Of the National Presby-
terrain church," she said.
Sarah was found dead in a
bathtub Of their home at 1860
ClydeSdale place NV. on No
vember 8, 1858. The death was
ruled accidental.
Their lone child, a daughter
named Heather, also died-ac-
cidentally, according to Moth
erwell. He buried her in a Fred
erick (Md.) pet cemetery.
As Mrs. Taylor jotted notes,
she heard testimony in which
Motherwell admitted he was q
chronic liar.
Sidney Jones, a California
criminal investigator who ques-
toned Motherwell after his ar
rest in Las Vegas, New, in jan
uary, 1859, said the defendant
confessed he was "a habitual
liar"
This followed testimony by
another detective, Sergt. Mike
Whitney Of Las Vegas. New,
about Motherwell's ability as a
confidence man.
I'm a Con Man"
"Yes, I'm a con- man, but
not for profit" the officer said,
reading from a transcript Of
the interrogation.
Lets say sometimes I'm a
liar and I impress people ;"
Sergt. Whitney read.
Nov don't ask me why" he
continued. Because if I could
answer that question myself, 1
could do myself a big favor"
Sergt. Whitney, Mr.. Jones
and an Atlanta (Ga.) FBI
agent, John Ogden, all re-
counted what Motherwell had
told them about Mrs. Putney's
disappearance.
.Motherwell's basic story is
this: He and Mrs. Putney spent
the night Of August IA at a
motel in Marysville, Calf, and
they arose about $3.50 am. to
drive to Las Vegas.
They parted there, and
Motherwell went on to San
Francisco, where on August 10,
at her request, he sent a tele-
gram to Mrs. Putneys' half
brother, Castro M. Dabrohua
OF Chicago, saying Pearl was to
be married.

Emphasis on Youth

Emphasis on Youth
In making his latest cardinal
selections, Pope John continued
a practice he set earlier of ele-
waiting comparatively younger
church officials to the college.
Bishop Rugambwa is Al and
Archbishop Santos 81. Arch
bishop Alfrink is SO, Archbish-
ops Dol and Lefebvre both 81,
and the most Revs. Traglia and
Bacci both "a.
The college now has 81 Ital-
ians and AZ prelates from other
countries. After the new con-
sistory, it will have 80 Ital-
ians and So non-Italians with
the following representation:
France, 8; the United States,
6; Spain, S; Germany, 4; Bra
I'll, 8; Canada, Portugal, Ar
gentina and Britain, 2 each;
and one each from Belgium,
Syria, Armenia, Australia,
Ecuador, Uruguay. Mexico,
Cuba, Hungary. China, India,
Poland, Ireland, Austria,
Japan. Philippines, Holland
and Tanganyika.
One Surprise
Naming Of a cardinal for
the Philippines, whose popula-
ton is almost solidly Catholic,
and Of the first native Negro
cardinal in Africa, where the
church has expanded enor-
mously in recent years, did not
come as a surprise.
But the naming Of a Jap
anese cardinal was a surprise
and injected new interest in
the colorful ceremonies that
will see the elevation OF the
princes Of the church. Japan's
Catholic population is small,
and Tokyo, Of which the new
cardinal is archbishop, has only
about $1,000 Catholics.
The nomination Of a Jap
anese cardinal was considered
by Vatican sources to indicate
the importance that Pope John
attaches to the church in the
Far East.

nance Agency.
Lower Income" Units
After considerable discussion
the commission decided to &c
along with a recommendation
by the District Commissioners
that the plans detectives state
that some Of the new housing
be for "lower-income" families
Mr.. Finley said the Commits
sion did SO with the expecta-
ton that the city heads would
interpret this objective as being
met by the proposal Of the
Reynolds Metals Co. to build
apartments and row houses
south Of M street for sale
through cooperative corpora
ton.
Reynolds officials and CO.
operative leaders have said they
believe monthly charges for
their units will be is to 20
per cent below charges for
comparable quarters under
homeopathic development.
Earlier today a planning staff
advised against accepting the
"lower-middle income" in a re-
port which said:
Since the Southwest already
has nearly 1000 public housing
units and private housing is
presently aimed at serving
those families with incomes
from $1,000 to $4,000, the
phrase 'lower-middle' does not
seem to be consistent with pre-
vious decisions"
Several months ago the
planners took the position that
it was neither feasible nor de-
Sirable to construct low-cost
private housing in the South
west.
The new Area C plans, COW
ering most of Southwest WASH
ington, sets a maximum of 1000
new housing units to be built
About 1000 Of them would be
north Of M street and 2,4OO
south of M.
Acceptance Urged
Urging that the commissions
language be accepted, Mr.. Fin
ley warned that If the District
heads disagreed with the plans
wording they would have to
send it back to the planners
This, he said, might mean IAN
other four months of horsing
around with words"
The planners did not 20
along with one other District
suggestion. This would have
held up approval of park
ing compounds in residential
areas.
Harry T. Thompson, Ma
tional Capital Parks superin-
tendent, also raised-but did
not press-an objection to
wording which changed the
designation of certain areas
along the waterfront from
parks" to Community uses"
He said he felt there would
be increasing pressure to build
structures on these tracts and
that they should be designated
firmly as open areas.
Staff officials argued that
most Of the areas will be de-
veloped as parks and that the
planners. in any event, will
have a voice later iYtheir uses.

NetO Summit Bridge
Was Dedicated

Dedication of the new Summit
Bridge across the Chesapeake and
Delaware Canal on Saturday drew
a record throng of more than 1900
people to witness federal, state
and local officials who opened the
span to traffic.
Less than two hours later, the
first accident minor one-had
taken place on the new $7,500,000
structure
After brief exercises at the
bridge on a bright but cold and
windy day, principal addresses
marking the occasion were made
at luncheon in Kent Manor Inn,
near Wilmington.
There Gov. j. Caleb Boggs ex-
tended a welcome to officials of
the United States Army Corps of
Engineers and praised all civilian
and military officials who had
worked for a decade in bringing
the bridge to fruitation. The new
span will speed traffic over Routes
II and 301 and will aid shipping
as well since clearance has been
increased to 135 feet above high
water level.
u. S. Senator J. Allen Frear, Jr.
cut the ribbon which began the
flow of traffic and u. S. Senator
John J. Williams unveiled plaque
which lists the names of principal
contractors involved in the huge
construction job.
Mr.. Frear recalled how eleven
years ago the late M. Allan Will
son of the State Highway Depart
ment called his attention to the
need for a high, level bridge at
Summit. He commended Mr.. Will
liams, his colleague in Congress,
former Congressman Herbert War
burton, Harry G. Haskell. Jr., and
Rep. Harris B. Mcdowell, Jr. for
their efforts in helping to secure
necessary legislation to bring about
the project. He also praised Gov.
Boggs and former Gov. Elbert N.
Carvel for their support.
II can well recall too," Frear
continued, "the town meeting that
year in Middletown (1949) when
the old bridge was closed because
of abutment failure. The volumi-
nous correspondence and count
less conferences are also vivid
recollections of time spent on the
project over the years"
He lauded the residents of the
Summit Bridge area whom he said
were "helpfully persuasive" as
Legislation was being considered.
Now our file is closed on Sum-
NIT Bridge and we have a whole
new drawer for active material,
Frear concluded.
One of the interested guests at
the ceremonies was Mrs. Cath
crime Kane, who now resides at
Louisville, near Oxford, Pa. Her
husband, Wallace Kane-and his
father before him-were bridge
tenders at Summit. Mrs. Kane lived
in the bridge house" near the old
lift bridge from 1905 to 1923. Her
husband died there in 1929.
Mrs. Kane was greeted by 1t.
Gen. e. G. Itschner, chief, U. s..
Army Engineers, Gov. Boggs, and
other prominent officials, and it
brought back many recollections
to the eighty-six year old great
grandmother.
In order to signify that the old
Summit lift bridge had gone out of
service; Lit, Gen.. Itschner applied
an acetylene torch to a girder
enroute to the Wilmington lun-
cheOn.
