U.S. MAY RESUME
LARGE - SCALE AID TO LAOS
WASHINGTON UPi — Secretary
of State Dean Rusk indicated yes
terday that the United States may
soon resume large-scale economic
aid to Laos where rival princes
have agreed on a new government.
At the same time, a State De
partment spokesman indicated
there is no present plan to pull
U.S. troops out of Thailand. Presi
dent Kennedy ordered the Ameri
can fighting forces there May 16
as a guard against any threat
from across the border after Red
rebels broke the cease-fire in
neighboring Laos.
Press officer Lincoln White
noted Kennedy has said, as White
put it, that the American troops
will remain in Thailand “as long
as necessary.”
And, White added, “there are
a lot of big, fat question marks
left” in carrying out the process of
transforming Laos into an inde
pendent, neutral country removed
from the cold war struggle.

SEARCHING FOR GOLD
The Nugget erred in reporting
Wednesday that the Shell Oil Co.
vessel Eudora was prospecting for
oil in the waters off Nome.
Mr. Curry and Mr. Sturgeon, who
are directing the operation, pointed
out that their quest was for gold
and that the electronic equipment
abroad the vessel was designed for
finding gold—and not oil.
This equipment is a magneto
meter, which shows the presence
of black sand, and an instrument
called the “sparker” which shows
the depth to bedrock.
Both men emphasized that the
work now going forward is merely
the first stages of exploration and
if the results prove promising
much more work will have to be
done to prove up on the values, j
if any.

HAWAII WOULD LEASE
ONE OF ALASKA’S FERRIES
JUNEAU UP) — Hawaii is very
much interested in finding a way
to utilize one of three ferries being
built for Southeast Alaska’s Ma
rine Highway System, Gov. Wm.
Egan said this morning.
At a Wednesday morning press
conference the governor said he
had conferred with Hawaii’s gov
ernor, Wm. F. Quinn, when in Seat
tle recently for the launching of
the first ferry.
Egan said the Hawaii legislature
had appropriated money for a sur
vey to be made as to availability
of ships for purchase or lease by
Hawaii for inter-island transpor
tation there.
Sam Hirota, Deputy Director of
the Hawaiian Department of
Transportation, Egan said, is ex
pected here in about a month for
active work to determine if one
of the ferries can be leased during
the winter months for use in his
state.
The governor said he did not
feel it was necessary to reply to
charges leveled by Howard Pol
lock, GOP gubernatorial aspirant,
Monday that Juneau Democrats
had pressured state employes to
purchase tickets for the recent
testimonial dinner for Egan held
in the capital city.
Egan commented, “it looked to
me like three-fourths of the people
at the dinner were not connected
with the State at all.”
Egan who had just returned
from attending a Young Democrats
Convention in Ketchikan and ad
dressing the Veterans of Foreign
Wars Convention in Sitka said “It
was certainly heart-warming to
see the terrific interest of the
Young Democrats in Ketchikan in
government.”
He said the convention was very
well attended and added, “I think
that in both parties we have to
get the young people conversant
with government and their re
sponsibilities to it.”
“They will work hard in the
coming campaign and will de
finitely be an important factor,”
he said.
Egan will be in his office this
week but plans to attend ground
breaking ceremonies for the Stand
ard Oil Nikiski refinery June 19
in the Anchorage area.
TO ATTEND CONFERENCE
Mr. and Mrs. Andrew H. Ner
land left for Anchorage on Tues
day where Mrs. Neriand is a lay
delegate to the Methodist Confer
ence in session there.
They will visit Century 21 in
Seattle on their way to Denver

cation Assn., which meets July

PROTECTIVE BROTHER OF
SECRETARY GUNS DOWN
OIL COMPANY EXECUTIVE
NEW YORK UP) — Taylor S.
Gay, $90,000-a-year oil company
executive, has died of a bullet
wound inflicted by the strict and
protective brother of his spinster
secretary whom he had been
dating.
“This was no love affair,” moan
ed the secretary, Mary Mullooly,
42, who has walked with a limp
since childhood. “The most I ever
did was kiss him on occasion.”
“Our relationship was only a
platonic friendship,” she said when
word came that Gay, 55, had died
yesterday at Beekman-Downtown
Hospital 20 hours after he was
shot.
Gay’s wife, Berta, 45, from whom
he had been legally separated for
five years, said just before he died:
“They tell me that there’s not
very much hope but I’m praying
for him. As for his relationship
with Miss Mullooly, there is no
relationship.
“Taylor Gay isn’t that kind of
man. He’s always been a very
chivalrous man. So he took a girl
out to dinner—is that so terrible?”
Miss Mullooly’s brother James,
41, 6 feet 4 and 260 pounds, has
been quoted by police as saying:
“The man needed killing. I took
it upon myself. I’m a religious
man. I didn't like the idea of a
married man going around with
my sister.”
Miss Mullooly told newsmen
about her life with her father who
was a strict disciplinarian and
with her brother who took over
after the father died.
