She worked for 20 years as a stenographer for the Chicago and North Western railroad, serving also as treasurer of the credit union. The siate a attorney’s office said the alleged embezzlement refers only to the years since 1950 and may actually tbtal as much, as >BO,OOO. She admitted keeping* a double -set of books and withholding deposit entries from the official books. State auditors broke the case when they noticed that the amount of dividends paid was but of proportion to deposits recorded. ' Mrs. Techukak became ill during questioning in late August and quit her job. Then she sent her private books to Arthur Jnngblut, president of the credit union, with a note that read: "Art—This lb something I did by myself for a long time, and no one could help me put.

Officials In Confusion On H-Bomb Status Antefitf ns CtJftfusfed By OfHeittl Views On tefiW SHength WASHINGTON U£ +- Contradictory Statements from three highofficials today produced a new peak of public contusion about the size ot Russia’s H-bomb arsenal. In direct conflict wtro chalrmhn W. Sterling Cole ot th4 feohgressiona! atomic energy committee,' who said Russia had "H-bombs—-piurkl,” and civil defense administrator Vhl Peterson, who said he is "kikumiht” that hcithfcr Russia nbr the Uhitfcfl States “has the hydrogen bomb ♦ Tklf-d contributor to the prevaHihg confusion whs defonse mbbill z'er Arthur S. Flemming, who said in a Weekend report that Russia Is nOW “c&prblb of delivering suddenly and irithbut Warning the most destructive weapon ever devised by man on chosen targets in the United States.” He first told reporters he meant H-bombs, but later said he had not intended to credit Russia with a stockpile of bomplbted hydrdgen weapons. The atomic energy commission, whose secret intelligence reports presumably arfe equally available to Cole, Peterson and Fleming, declined to comment on the various declarations. The only official AEC statement dn the mAtter was issued Aug. 20, and merely confirmed that Russia had set off a hydrogen explosion. n Likewise, the A®C has never said whether the United States has any "deliverable” H-bombs. The nssumption has been widespread that this country is now producing actual weapons, but all that is known for certain is that a massive hydro gen “device" was set oft last November at Eniwetok Atoll in the Pacific. ' Peterson, who was interviewed Monday night on the Mutual Broadcasting System’s radio program “Reporters’ Roundup,” emphasized that "There is some difference between having a device and having a transportable bomb that can be dropped abound the world.” *i am assuming,” he said, “that no one has the hydrogen bomb yet I don’t know what day we will have one; I don’t know what day they (the Russians) will have one; but I am afraid ft will not be too many montbs away.’ ’ Cole,' on the other hand, had told a reporter earlier that talk about Russia's having only a hydrogen “device" was purely wishful thinking. He said flatly that Russia now has “deliverable H-bombs” in plural quantity, and that American cities are tn “real and imminent danger.” Rural Youth To Hold Hobo Party Thursday A hobo party will feature the Thursday night meeting of the Adams county rural youth.

Like the old lady in the shoe, the HudSohs had so many children they did not know what to do — at leaat as for as housing them Was concerned. So they had settled down Ih two big tents on the outskirts ot town. •MH. Hudson was not surprised then, when Dr. Trevor Williams dellvfer’ed h fo-bdncfe boy and a 61onnee girl. She \was somewhat flustered when the third child, a 58-ounce girl, was born and downright flabbergasted when she gave birth to the fourth child, a 53-ounce daughter v ' (The multiple births extended over 3 1-2 hours. •Hudson, too, had expected twins. He received the news with alternating skepticism and good humor. "I suppose I’ll hive to buy another teht,” he said.
