Fouke Fur Co. Will Still Move to South Carolina

ST. LOUIS R - Despite the threatened cancellation of a fed- eral fur processing contract, the Fouke Fur Co.,, announced it will close its St. Louis plant Jan. 5 and move to South Carolina.
 John Fouke, president of the firm, said the US. Interior De- partment had been notified of the companys intention. The move originally was announced Oct. IA, when the firm disclosed plans to shift its operation to Greenville, sc.
 On Nov. 29. D. Otis Beasley, As
 sistant Secretary of the Interior, warned the firm it would lose its $1 ,600, ,000-a-year contract with the government next December, if it moved. Fouke has been processing all government-owned Alaskan seal-slSins for the past AS years. Fouke officials contend the firm would go bankrupt within five years, if it remained in St. Louis. They said income in recent years has failed to stay abreast of ris- l ing costs.
 About 200 employees will be af- fected by the shutdown but com pany spokesmen said some 160 of these would be offered jobs ir Greenville as openings occur. Interior Department officials said the cancellation was consid. cred because Fouke had not con
 suited the government about tho
 planned move. They said a few
 years ago, when Fouke was asked if it could move to Alaska, com pany officials claimed it was i'm
 possible because they needed skilled labor available only in St Louis.

Judge RoSzel c. Thomson re-
fused to allow Government
attorneys to introduce the
handwritten account. The
judge, however, permitted the
prosecution to introduce into
evidence a .38-caliber pistol
also found in the accordion
case.
The FBI had obtained per-
mission from Rees' parents to
search the house but Rees him
self was at the time under
arrest in Memphis, Tenn.
In his written opinion, Judge
Thomson said the pistol was
admissible on the ground that
it was an instrument of the
crime the FBI was investigating
and that the FBI had knowl-
edge of the particular weapon
it was seeking.
But the judge added that the
written account, which the FBI
said purported to describe the
last hours of the Jackson
family, did not constitute a
probable instrument of crime
and it raised the question of
whether the FBI had the right
to take it without obtaining
specific permission from Rees.
Spotsylvania Circuit Court
Clerk w. Cary CriSmond said
yesterday that no new motion
had been filed by either side,
but that he had a verbal order
from Judge John D. Butzner,
jr., to notify Federal marshals

This is our last chance to
maintain little oases of nature

Member Thomas Richards, who
originally proposed the program
These areas will be living

can go and observe nature as
it is. Except for markings oi
trails and an occasional bench
on which you can sit and con-
template, there will be nothing
to disturb the wildlife, trees
and green foliage"
Three sections designated as
natural areas are in the Gulf

Windy Run stream valleys.
The county already has ac-
quired land in these areas in
accordance with its open space
plan.
Efforts also will be made to
create nature areas around the
Allie-Freed Park and Long

The program now will be
submitted to the County Board
