On Stolen Copper Cable Charge At NS
Nine Seabees and John Jarvis,
a civilian salvage operator, were
taken into custody by the United

Anchorage and Kodiak, on June
16, and charged with the theft of
over 17,000 pounds of copper cable
which had been removed from
poles in the old Army area on the

The Federal charges are an out
growth of an investigation jointly
conducted by FBI agents and
Naval authorities here. The stolen
copper cable, all of which has
been recovered, was valued at over
$4,000. Most of the stolen copper
cable had been packed in barrels
for shipment to a Seattle firm.

Clark Wibour, III, GEW-2, age 21;

Ac ording to Fred Hallford,
special agent in charge of the

Aoril 11, 1960, of five rolls of
copper power cable valued at in
excess of $100, which was property
of the United States Navy, a de
partment of the United States. An
additional count on the same com
plaint alleges that he sold this
allegedly stolen wire at Kodiak.
In a separate complaint filed
before Commissioner White, Wil
bour, Allen, Lewis, Heckle, Flyum,
Schueller, Lowe and Hawker were
charged with aiding and abetting
Nelson in the theft of the previous

Jarvis was specifically charged
in a separate complaint with un
lawfully receiving the five rolls
of copper power cable, knowing
the cable to be property of the
United States Navy, a Department
of the United States, and knowing
the cable to have been stolen.
All of the ten persons arrested
were taken before United States

on the afternoon of June 16, 1960,
and all waived preliminary exami

the exception of Nelson, were re

failed to post. He was committed
to the custody of the United States
