Scott Hearing Matron Fails Delayed for Jail Break Case
In Oklahoma City a 51 year old matron faced a delayed hearing after five inmates tried to break jail while L Ewing Scott who was convicted of murdering his missing wife remains at issue. The delay aims to study a new California law on whether a first degree murder convict faces death or life imprisonment with the jury deciding. Prosecutor Leavy sought post Christmas continuation. Judge Nye agreed to study. Defense objected as unjust. Scott may testify next Thursday and plans an appeal if death is chosen. The State Supreme Court would review automatically.

Inflationary Pressures Ease Says Secretary
The secretary said inflationary pressures began subsiding in late 1957 as demand no longer outpaced supply. Unemployment has risen seasonally, but there is no reason for a long serious problem.
