county could not afford the added
expense. One magistrate suggest
ed that “since the county is broke,”
each magistrate agree to return
the $2.50 he now receives to the
general fund.
The motion carried.

MINING ACTIVITIES
(Mines and Petroleum Bulletin)
The Kelray Mining Co., formed
by Joe Kelly, Jack Raymond and
Jack Bullock, intend to placer mine
on White River near Yakataga.
They prospected the area during
the summer of 1962. Early reports

beaches near Yakataga in prior
years. The gold on White River
was usually found in remnants of
an old channel.
Some primitive desert people be

AF Investigators Sift
Through Wreckage of
C-133 Cargo Plane
TRAVIS AIR FORCE BASE,
Calif. l/W — Air Force investiga
tors sifted through the burned
out wreckage of a C-183 turbo
prop cargo plane yesterday, hop
ing to find why it crashed and
burned, killing all nine of its
crewmen.
The huge four-engined plane, on
a routine local training flight with
no cargo aboard, crashed in a
marshy base garbage dump Wed
nesday 3,000 feet short of the near
est runway.
The swampy terrain made it im
possible for base firemen and
would-be rescuers to approach the
burning craft until nearly an hour
after it went down.
When the plane crashed officials
at first feared there were nuclear
missiles aboard. The ship is built
to carry surface-to-surface missiles.

U.S. Senate Approves
Kennedy’s Program to
Put U.S. Youth to Work
WASHINGTON W—The Senate
has approved President Kennedy’s
program to put thousands of Am
erican youths to work on conser
vation and community projects.
But before the youngsters can be
sent into parks and forests and
into local hospitals and libraries,
the House will have to give its
approval. And this, administration
lieutenants concede, is no sure
thing.
Kennedy men in the Senate had
promised to pass the Youth Em
ployment Bill before Easter. They
made good Wednesday night, but
it took a 12-hour session, longest
of the year, before the 50-34 vote
was rolled up.
It won’t be called up for debate
in the House until the holiday
recess ends April 22 and floor con
sideration is unlikely before May,
said administration leaders in the
House.
The legislation deals with two
programs which, proponents say,
will eventually provide up to
100,000 jobs a year to those in the
16-21 age bracket.
One would send youths into
camps in a Federal Conservation
Corps patterned after the old CCC
of the 1930s. The other would es
tablish a state and community
force to work on local public ser
vice projects.
All senators of the Pacific North
west and Alaska voted for passage
except Sen. Jordan of Idaho, the
lone Republican in the group.
About one out of 10 Americans
take a sleeping pill every night.
