After Washington died, his wife was charged with murder and is being held without bond in Rutherford County jail for the November term of Superior Court.

Roy A. Taylor (D-NC) said Friday that mica should be eliminated from consideration for further tariff reduction. He made public a letter to Edward Yardley, executive secretary of the Committee for Reciprocity Information, which has been holding hearings for several weeks at the Tariff Commission Building. The letter said in part: "I would like to express my opposition to further tariff reduction on mica. "Mica mining and processing is a very important industry in portion of the district which I resent.

In fact over a period of years western North Carolina has produced about two thirds of the nation's entire mica supply. I fear that further reduction in the duty on mica will injure this domestic mica operation. Since this duty has been reduced twice during the last 12 years, I doubt the advisabilitl of the proposed additional reduction." Taylor said that during World War II the U. S. government recognized the importance of mica and for the past eight years has been stockpiling the mineral.

"In case of war," he added, "we must be in postition to depend on our American mica inrep-Idustry to supply military needs.

(AP) Judge George Patton refused at a hearing here Thursday to grant a temporary injunction restraining a Hickory drug firm from selling Eli Lilly Co.

products at prices alleged to be in violation of the state fair trade act. The Indianapolis drug firm charged that Smith's Co. of Hickory sold Lilly insulin and Tes Tape, a commodity used in testing for diabetes, at cut prices. The Smith firm has no price agreement with the manufacturer, but Lilly has signed such agreements with other state stores. Under the state fair trade act, this "non-signers clause" binds all stores in the state.

Judge Patton said he found it "hard to stomach" the clause in refusing to grant the injunction. Lilly attorneys said they planned an appeal to the State Supreme Court which 21 years ago ruled the non-signers clause constitutional in a similar case involving Lilly.

Bemiss, an engineer at Cape Canaveral, told the, Soutnern Region Association YMCA Secretaries Friday night the problem today in the field of science is not scientific skills and techniques or equipment but is actually the human factor.

He spoke at the conference banquet audience. "Long range planning for our new space era has proved the technical possibility of designing the vehicle, equipping it with sufficiently accurate guidance, furnishing proper communication and adequate propulsion to carry men to the moon or other planets with assurance of safe return," he said. "There is one major gap, however, that exists, in our plans concerning a problem which cannot be resolved through drafting a set of specifications and awarding of a contract. The question is: will we have the caliber of spiritually-inspired and morally guided leadership to whom we may intrust such power? "I believe the Young Men's Christian Association is one of the few organizations that has the capability to bridge this gap in planning and fulfill an unwritten contract to furnish this finest type of leadership which the world so desperately needs."

"They have, fact, already lost their voice in the Democratic party since the Democratic party choice always has won. "Their only hope for a change in government must be the Republican party." Maj. William Purdue, president, announced that all surplus funds of the club will be turned over to the GOP county treasurer, Loren D.

Packer, who is in charge of the finance committee for Republican candidates in Buncombe County, I Only 2 Soviet Citizens Given Prison Terms NEW YORK (AP) Only two Soviet citizens have been sentenced to prison for espionage in this country since World War II. and one of them did not serve any time. In each case, their sen. tence exceeded the 10 years given to U2 spy Francis Gary Powers in Moscow. A score of other Soviet nationals, many of them diplomats, have been forced out of the country for spying.

And perhaps a dozen Americans have gone to prison as spies for the Soviet Union here. The only presently imprisoned Soviet spy is Col. Rudolf Abel. sentenced in 1957 to 30 years. Like Powers, he could have received the death penalty.

Unlike Powers, he was able to appeal and did so, the appeal eventually taking his case to the U.S. Supreme Court. Abel slipped into this country in 1948 and for nine years operated a spy network aimed at the theft of American military and atomic secrets. He was the first foreign national to stand trial for his life on espionage charges in 1 a civilian American courtroom, and the highest Soviet agent ever tried here. In the first big postwar trial, Valentin Gubitchev.

Soviet engineer with the United Nations, was convicted in 1950 and sentenced to 15 years. However, he escaped imprisonment by agreeing to leave the country.

Pennario, 36, flew 3,000 miles from Los Angeles for the concert in Brevard and Asheville, and will fly back next week for a brief vacation before the tenmonths of travel that fills a concert artist's life. "This will be my 15th transcontinental tour and my seventh tour of Europe," he said as he rested after the performance. "But this series is the concentrated on the schedule." The near capacity audience called the soloist back for five bows after his brilliant climax to Rachmaninoff's Third Piano Concerto, which Pennario called the most difficult of the 33 in his reportoire. "Saturday night, we play the Prokofief Third, Sunday afternoon the Brahms First, and then Monday night the Rachmaninoff Second.

I believe that is my favorite-1 know I have played it more often than any other concerto."

Pfohl chose four of the mightiest of all works from our performances here." Pennario said.

(AP)-The pastor of one of Charlotte's larg. est Baptist churches said Friday he "will have no part" in attacks on the religion of Sen. F.

Kennedy, Democratic presidential nominee. Dr. Claude U. Broach, pastor of St. John's Baptist Church, also told his members in the church's weekly newspaper, "This is no time to engage in a campaign against the Catholic Church.

It is out of place and unjust." He added, "I am not in sympathy with the organized effort to arouse hostility to the Democratic candidate because he happens to be a member of the Roman Catholic Church. "There are many well founded reasons why Protestants should be on guard against the aggressive political ambitions of the hierarchy of the Roman Catholic Church, and there are vast dif. ferences in our theology. But the church is not the candidate." Dr. Broach said he is not, by his statement, endorsing Sen.

Eichelberger said he was one of the first Americans to enter the demolished city shortly after the bomb was dropped. He told Kiwanians that most of the Japanese who died in the holocaust were suffocated by fumes and smoke from fires set by the blast. "The result would have been the same," he said, "if we had set the fires with incendiary bombs." Turning again to' Russia, the general commented that Russia could be expected to make the most of the Powers trial. He said that Communists-card-carrying and otherwise-in the U.S. today have free access to photographs, trade magazine information and other data and are sending to Russia much more detailed reports than our intelligence services are able to obtain from there.

wise, the U.S. doesn't pursue what opportunities it has, the general charged. Finally, he berated those who say that Russia isn't interested in war. He asserted that the ly reason Russia isn't ed in war at this time is because the U.S. is still a first-rate power.

Russia, he said, wouldn't hesitate to strike if the U.S. was they know they couldn't win a war with the U.S. The general also commented on Cuba, Formosa, the Congo, and other troubled spots in the world today.
