In NARRISON Ark AP a chancery ruling upheld allowing counties to join in financing industry under Act 2 of 1960 but struck down parts of a Mar-Bax Shirt Corp lease at Gassville. The decision labels tax favors to the company unconstitutional and directs funds from a $535000 Baxter Marion bond issue toward local projects, with an appeal likely to the Arkansas Supreme Court.

Eyeglasses Clue in Murder Case

A Richmond optician testified that a broken pair of eyeglasses bought by Carroll V. Jackson Jr. ties to the murder case of Melvin Davis Rees Jr. The glasses were found near Fredericksburg where Jackson and his 18 month old daughter Janet were killed. The trial stems from the kidnapping of Jackson's wife and another daughter in 1959, with the victims' remains later found in Maryland. The government seeks the death penalty under the Lindbergh law.
