Their Hair Down
To Iron Out Issues
WASHINGTON W* — Republican
leaders locked the door and let
down their hair Friday in the
windup of a two-day meeting at
which differences over issues and
candidates have been muted.
So far, unity in ’64 has been the
keynote of the gatherings of the
party’s National Committeemen
and State Chairmen were told, “if
we want to figvt anybody, let’s
fight the Kennedys.”
Fridav, however, the party chiefs
got a chance to stir up coals.
National Chairman Wm. Miller
barred the press and invited the
Republicans to speak their minds
about anything and everything.
Miller and other speakers at the
opening session on Fridav struck
an optimistic note about Republi
can prospects in 1964 despite the
failure of last month’s elections to
live up to their hopes, especially
in races for the House.
“The Republican party stands
substantially stronger than it did
before the election,” Miller said.
The GOP leaders were told that
the party's candidates would have
fared better had not the Cuban
crisis broken such a short time
before the Nov. 6 election.
Cuban Crisis Cost House Seats
“The Cuban crisis cost us as
much as 20 seats in the House,”
said Rep. Robert Wilson of Cali
fornia, chairman of the GOP Con
j gressional Campaign Committee,
who protested that President Ken
nedy should have acted “far
earlier” to rid Cuba of Soviet mis
siles and bombers.
Wilson said that members of the
I House Armed Services and Foreigr
I Affairs Committees were told b;
I administration leaders at a secre
’ briefing six weeks in advance o
i the election that as many as 1
Russian jet bombers were in Cube
j He also said the House mem
bers were told that missile base
appeared to be under constructior
in Cuba but that no informatior
was available at the time or
whether Soviet missiles had been
shipped to Cuba.
Wilson, who addressed a lunch
eon of the GOP leaders and later
elaborated on his remarks in talk
ing with newsmen, said he and
other House members had been
enjoined to secrecy at the briefing
but that he felt free to talk now
because “it’s all over — it’s his
tory.”
As a member of the House
Armed Services Committee, he
said he will try to find out wheth
er there were any pictures sup
pressed of Soviet missiles being
shipped to Cuba like those that
have been released showing the
weapons being shipped out.
“There is no question in my
mind that we have had every ship
going in and out of Cuba under
surveillance for the last year
anyhow,” said Wilson, who com
plained about what he called the
administration’s management of
news.

Case Under Advisement
OKLAHOMA CITY, Okla. 0F
If it’s illegal to permit gamecoel
fights, can an Oklahoma angle
then also be charged with cruclt;
to animals for using worms oi
fish hooks?
I Six Watonpa, Okla.. men accuse*
i of permitting cockfights wer
i charged under a law making it
j misdemeanor for anyone who “in
stitutes or encourages any fig?
between animals.”
j Defense attorney Sid White file
a petition Wednesday wuth tl
Court of Criminal Appeals decla
ing a gamecock is not an anim;
1 He said the Oklahoma legislatu
. has not passed a law against coc
. fighting.
g j But Sam Lattimore, Asst. St;
j Atty. General, contended previe
L j court rulings against animal fig,
’ / ing could apply to the gamecoe,
5 I too.
1 I Judge K. Nix then inquired fro

could be classified as animal
This, he said, could lead to charge
of cruelty to animals being file

Boston Stranglrr
(Claims Kiglitli
Woman Victim
BOSTON .T - - Police in subur
ban Winthrop faced a murder
mystery Saturday — the stranding
of the eighth female in the greater
Boston area in the last six month.
The latest victim is Margaret
Cnligan, 17. mho mas found dead
Friday night in the bedroom of her
family home.
Dr. Michael Luongo, medical
examiner, nerformed an autopsy,
and said the girl died of strangula
tion. He said he found three cu‘
on her neck, presumably from a
kitchen knife found in the room
In addition he said there were ix
' r seven t:ny punetun s in the
middle of her back, of a size which
■ could be caused by a knife point
He said th<‘ girl had not been
exually molested.
j The victim, who was a runner
i up in the lf)f>2 Boston Archdio
cesan competition for queen of the
’ i Catholic Youth Organization, was
i found fully clothed, but with her
| dress up to her waist. A pajama
! bottom was around her neck. The
j body was on the floor with her
- | head immersed in a pressure cook
; j er half filled with water. A blood
: | stained 12-inch knife was nearby.
• j Like the seven other women vic
i tims. Miss Cadigan was alone at
home at the time of her death.
1 Most of the earlier victims were
- linked in some way with hospitals,
a Two were nurses, fine a physio
- therapist and others had been pa
■t | tients shortly before their deaths.
I Miss CacUgan was interested in
d 1 nursing and had worked in a hos
e! pital as a nurse’s aide.
| Police fear a madman is on the
d. | loose, picking women as his vic
re ! tims and strangulation as his
k- means of killing.
| The most recent victim, until
ite | Miss Cadigan’s death, was Sophie
'us Clark, 19. of Englewood, N.J., who
it- j was studying medical and hospital
cs, j technology In Boston.
I Miss Clark, nude except for her
m I brassiere. was found strangled
;o I with a stocking and petticoat, in

*s j evening.
i | Miss Clark’s apartment was less
i than a block from the scene of the
j first of the stranglings last June 14.
r J There were six strangle slay
j ings from June through August.
