Best Friend’ Shoots Dentist,
Reveals Years of Bitter Hate
? SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 19 (U. P.) —A suicide note and a rambling, 12-page * letter today told the story of the contrasting lives of Dr. Ernest B. Vamos, 45, successful dentist, and Dr. Ray Nelson, his onetime employee who was a failure in ‘business and love. 7 Nelson shot Dr. Vamos with a .32 caliber pistol Monday in one of Dr. Painless Parker's dental offices where they once had worked together. He then walked downstairs, into the alley where he shot him-
They had been roommates at dental school, but even then Nelson had hated Vamos, the letter found in Nelson’s room revealed. The letter was addressed to “V.” “If you were trying to impress me with your bigness and my smallness it wasn’t necessary,” Nelson wrote. “I was painfully | conscious of all that from the begirining, ’ It is obviously futile to attempt to establish anything resembling a basis of renewed {friendship and understanding between us.”
Nelson's letter told how a pretty

the city will curtail - its govern-
mental costs and cut budget items to the bone, it can cut the tax rate much more than the preliminary proposals contemplate. “There is no need to carry big working balances. The city will receive approximately as much from gasoline taxes next year as it is getting this year and there are indications that income from other sources will be increased. “It is our view that both civil and school city rates can be further reduced. Since the school rate was adopted an increase was made in teachers’ support allotments and while there has been a voluntary agreement to cut the rate slightly,
budget evidently will demonstrate where additional savings can be §| made. “The public’s immediate concern, however, is with the civil city’s proposals for 1943. It will be the pur-
budget requests with extreme care and to suggest savings all along the line. In this work, which is being done for the benefit of all the tax-
terest. This is their fight and they must become active if they wish to obtain any substantial savings during the coming year.”

The high command communique also told of civilian deaths and slight property damage when formations of Soviet planes carried out “nuisance flights” against East and West Prussia.

Says Facts Distorted
. “The case which the witnesses” = attempted to build against Standard Oil Co. is a jerry-built house,” Mr. Farish declared. “Standard’s relations with the German trust have never: constituted a cartel.
“Statements made by witnesses before this comimittee, widely pub= licized in the press of this whole nation, were based upon misrepresentations of contracts, bolstered up by selected paragraphs, memoranda and letters from our files.” He said that if his firm had been able to foresee the outbreak of the war in 1927, when the first patent contracts were signed, it would have been “even more anxious” to work with the German company because the contracts permitted = Standard to “weave into the technical knowledge and experience” of our industry the “advances of modern German science.” :
Tells of Advantages
Through his firm’s relations with: the German company, Mr. Farish’ told the committee, the United. States got its first 100-octane avia~ tion gasoline process, a synthetic base for T. N. T., an efficient method for making synthetic ammonia, mafderials to improve hydraulic and lubricating oils, and processes for buna, buyyl and vistanex rubbers. “The 1927 declaration of good faith from its origin had no pos- . sible purpose or effect except to record the good intentions of the parties under a simple oil patent contract applying to -the United States only,” he said.
Acquired Buna Rights
Later Standard worked out an agreement with the Germans to take over all buna rights for the United States and the British and French empires, leaving the. the world to I. G. Farbeninudtries. “By. the time went ! the war we wer 1 Cambell oo duction of buna rubber and had nearly finished our first oil butadiene plant which was designed for about 10 tons a day,” Mr. Farish: said. “In 1937, Standard’s discovery of butyl rubber was reported to the Germans as a development which would come umder our contracts. “We did not think at the time,
