S.F. Loses inPopulation;Suburbs Gain

WASHINGTON, Nov. 26—Wl—The Census Bureau said to-

ay the city of San Franciscoas lost population since 1950.t said the flight to the suburbsas been responsible.The -bureau reported that

he San Francisco metropoli-an area, which includes theuburbs, has. shown a- popula-

tion . gain.. But it said themetropolitan -area has growness than half as fast at Cali-iornia as a whole.

The -bureau estimated thecity of San Francisco 'had amid-1956 population of 742,000,34.0QO less than in 1950.

In'the same period, the re-port said, the population ofhe entire Bay Area increased

269,000—to 2,510,000, a 12 pel-cent increase: The Bureau saidthis growth rale was about thesame as the national averagefor those years. • However, itadded, the State of Californialad a 27 per cent growth rateduring the same period.

ture. Falk had asked for ananswer before next Tuesday,when the program will be upfor district adoption.

Both' Christopher and Su-pervisor James Leo Halley,chairman of the supervisors'County, State and National Af-fairs Committee, pointed oulthat San Francisco's officia"position at present favors asecond vehicular crossing southof the Bay Bridge.

The district wants the Stateto build a tube and lease it tothe. district before building asecond bridge. Transit directors propose that the state finance the tube, estimated tocost $84,000,000, by revenuibonds. The bonds would bipaid off from transit passenge:tolls. If tolls prove insufficientthe district wants surplus BayBridge rveenues used to badup the bonds.

Transit directors also wanSan Francisco support of legislation forcing coordination ofreeway and transit plannin,in the Bay Area, to avoid -duplication and waste of effort inthe overall job of moving peopie.

Christopher a g r e e d informally that coordinated planning would be good, but saiall of the district legislativproposals will require thorough study.

City Controller Harry DRoss said it was the first hhad heard of the district plaand before San Jb'rancisco casupport it "we have to havelook at the entire picture."

Slayer HuntTurns to ManIn Green Car

Sedan Near Orinda

Home at Time of

Murder, Police Told

A gray-haired man seen in•an old car near the home ofOrinda executive William R.'Anderson shortly before hewas m u r d e r e d was beingsought by police throughoutthe Bay Area late last night!

In what Contra Costa Sher-iff's Inspector Ray Stoffelscalled "the best break we havehad yet," a neighbor of theslain man gave officers a'description yesterday of theman and his car.-

Sheriff's deputies and policeimmediately began checking26 cars throughout the BayArea which may fit part of thedescription.

The new lead in the slayingprobe, now entering its sixthday, came when the neighbors,who asked that they not beidentified, reported they hadseen an old green sedan parkednear the-home at 1 Las Aro-mas, Orinda, a few minutes'before Anderson was gunned'down at his front door.WANTED FOR QUESTIONS

From their description, anall points bulletin seeking theman for questioning was putout last night. The car wasdescribed as a light green 1950or 1951 Plymouth sedan, withthe . partial license number'"_XL 190." A m?n in the carwas described as in his late50s, of medium build, and witha full head of gray hair turn-ing white.

The State Department ofMotor Vehicles said no car .oi

' • • that description "is registerec, .among the "190". numbers, but

"~. 26 cars in the Bay Area par-tially match the descriptionand license number. .

The neighbor couple sthey were returning homev.-hen they saw the car on LasCascadas, about three doorsfrom the Anderson home.SLOWED HER CAR

The woman said she .slowecto ask if the man neededdirections.

She passed the car, howeverbecause she said she saw thedriver consulting a road mapinside the vehicle. She said asmall light was visible insidethe car and the driver waswearing a salmon-colored sporshirt. -

According to the couple, whoare 10-year residents ofarea, the car was strange tothe neighborhood.

The couple said they withheld the .information untinow because they didn't wanto become involved.

They supplied the information to Stoffels, who said hefelt definitely this could havibeen the slayer.{TIMING 'PERFECT': Stoffels said that "the timing5s perfect."Anderson was kille<between 8:20 and 8:30 p.m. onTuesday, he said.

He said the test was a verjsignificant event, showing the:ull range of the weapon novs attainable. This, the genera

Two More Bay Bus RoutesUtilize Rebuilt Key Terminal

Engineers' and constructionworkers won a race with timeand weather today as KeySystem's "A" Oakland-12th St.,and "C" P i e d n o n t-4pth St.transbay buses rolled in andout of the Bay Bridge terminalbuilding in San Francisco.

Thousands of commuters onthose lines will learn for thefirst time tomorrow of prog-ress on the $54,000,000 bridgereconversion project.

Many more thousands ofmotorists who jam the upperdeck uf the bridge at peakperiods daily will still be un-aware of initial phases of theprogram that will eventuallysolve congestion problems byproviding five wide lanes ofone-way travel on each deck.

This is despite the fact thatthe project has been underway — on a rush schedule — forthe past seven months.

During that lime, work hasbeen confined to the terminalbuilding, out of sight of thebridge travelers except com-muters on the "F" Berkeleybus line who have been usingthe terminal since October.

trains have, of necessity, beenloading and unloading on SanFrancisco streets in the vicin-ity of the terminal building,w i t h commuters unshelteredfrom rain and wind.

"Our first objective has beento get those people back intothe terminal," N. C. Raab, chiefof the Division of Bay TollCrossings, explained. He is incharge of the reconversion job.

Raab pointed out that in ad-dition to passenger comfortconsiderations, the need to re-lieve parking and traff ic prob-lems on city streets is a majorconsideration.' When the job got under way

last May, he expressed hopethat some of the former train

commuters would be back inthe building by the end of theyear. The project has beatenthat objective, ,in both timeand volume.

In the terminal buildingw h e r e there were six traintracks, two lanes for bus travelare ready for use, and a thirdwill soon be available.

The two lanes will provideloading stations for 22 busesat the same time, sufficient forall of Key System's operations.The third lane will be availablefor other bus lines or for fu-ture needs.

In the near future, bus lineswhich have always used thestreet level will also be movedinto the terminal.

And as that takes place, thejob of converting the span it-self for full use by motor ve-hicles can come out into theopen.

The reconversion job callsfor removal of train tracks,paving their area, and adjust-ing ramps to permit traffic tomove westbound on the upperdeck, eastbound on the lower.

Ernst Lemmcr, West Ger-many's minister of all-Germanaffairs, said:

"The Soviet proposals areaimed at tearing Berlin com-pletely a n d unconditionallyinto the Russian sphere ofpower via the interim solu-tion of making West Berlin aneutralized and so-called freecity."STANDARD TACTIC

In Washington, the StateDepartment press office saidit had no c o m m e n t onKhrushchev's display of inter-est in an East-West meeting.Officials said informally thatdemands for, conferences havebecome a standard tactic ofthe Soviet Premier.

They said Khrushchev doesnot appear to conceive of suchconferences as occasions fornegotiating, compromising andresolving differences, but tharather he thinks of them asmeetings for which Russiamust dictate the terms andprescribe the results.

U.S. officials said Khrush-chev's proposal to make WesiBerlin into a free city offersno basis whatever for East-West negotiation.IKE-DULLES HUDDLE

Mrs. Anderson told officersthat after he opened the doorshe o v e r h e a r d him say:"You've got the wrong RoyAnderson." He was known toassociates as "Roy."

Sheriff's Detectives LouisSkuce and Harold Robert alsobegan investigating a reportof a man who appeared abouttwo months ago at the OrindaStore, a grocery in OrindaVillage, asking for the ad-dress of a man named Ander-son.

The clerk who talked to himwas not sure of the first nameof the Anderson he sought.

The clerk described the manas flashily dressed, baldingand resembling "a miniatureAlfred Hitchcock."

He was directed to the homeof James H. Anderson, 5 ViaHermosa, about one-quarter ofa mile from the William R.Anderson home.RETURNED LATER

Some two hours later themar. returned to the store andsaid he had waited at thehouse, but no one was home.

Yesterday Col. TheodoreHaley, a retired Army intelli-gence agent, who lives at 1Via Hermosa, next door to theJames Anderson home, said hehad seen the man waiting out-side his neighbor's house.

The man left without sayingwhat he wanted.

Back at the grocery, he bor-rowed a dollar from a clerktor bus fare to San Francisco.

James H. Anderson told of-ficers yesterday he knew noone of the man's descriptionwho might have wanted to see

him and said he had no ap-pointments at his home at thattime. jEX-EMPLOYEE

Officers also said they areseeking for questioning a 38-year-old former employee ofAnderson who was fired by thecollection agency head for al-legedly cashing money ordersmailed to the firm.

Stoffels identified the manas Laurence Swinciki, or Wsin-icki, who worked for Ander-son under the alias "LarryMartin."

Martin or Swinciki was de-scribed as a balding, short andheavy set man who affectsflashy clothes. He is currentlyfree on $2,500 bail pending afederal trial on two counts ofaltering a postal money order.He was indicted by a San Fran-cisco Federal Grand Jury afterAnderson pressed c h a r g e sagainst him.'LITTLE BLACK BOOK'

Meanwhily, a "little blackbook" found in Anderson'seffects after the slaying point-ed up the possibility that "amystery woman" could shedlight on the slaying..

Stoffels said the woman wasindicated in the book only bycryptic entries, but the evi-dence was strong that sheplayed a key role in his clan-destine affairs for the past 10years.

The black address book,Stoffels added, also containedthe names of about a dozenother women — some withoutaddresses or phone numbers—under the heading "to be re-membered."

The inspector said each namewill r e c e i v e a painstakingcheck.

dered, it was brought out, An-derson returned from Renowhere he had spent three dayswith his pretty 25-year-oldsecretary, Mrs. Retha MaxineParks Filiberti.

Mrs. Filiberti admitted thatthe 60-year-old Anderson waspaj'ing the $140 a month renton her San Francisco apart-ment and had made her thebeneficiary of a $25,000 insur-ance policy on his life, author-ities said.

She also told officers Ander-son had told her he was readyto give up. for her a woman hehad been seeing for 10 years.

His sister, Mrs. A. W. Clowof Woodacre, Marin County,said her brother visited herlast Monday and told her: "I'mall through with women; ab-solutely all through."

Anderson's double life ap-parently was well hidden fromboth his wife and their inti-mate friends.DEVOTED TO WIFE

Mrs. Humboldt French ofOakland, a friend of the An-dersons of 20 years standing,said Anderson acted like a de-voted husband to his wife.

"I coulc*. never say one wordagainst him," said Mrs. Frenchof 320 62nd St. "He was a won-derful husband to her, always

so attentive. He was cute toher and thoughtful. He wasjust darling when she wentto the hospital recently for X-rays. He sent her a great bigbunch of roses."

Joseph 1.-Perkins, 39, a part-ner in the collection firm ofAnderson and Perkins, Inc., inSan Francisco, said the newsof Anderson's association withMrs. Filiberti "came like abomkshell in the office." ,

He said Anderson was veryuncommunicative and "we hadno common social life."UNAWARE OF THREATS

Perkins said, however, hebelieved the murder was notcommitted by a disgruntleddebtor. "If there were anythreats," said Perkins, "thecollectors.would get them. An-derson had not done any col-lecting for 10 years."

But the fact that Andersonwas in mortal fear of his lifewas strongly indicated by hiswife, Mayme.

Officers Plan Hard WorkApproach to Clueless Murder

Admiral Is Favored to Win Presidential Race in Venezuela

Contra Costa Sheriffs in-vestigators last night plannedseveral hard work approachesto solution o£ the almost clue-less murder of Orinda execu-tive William R. Anderson.

They admitted that hopes areslim lor any of their presentleads and said that only plain,hard police work will solve thecase.

That, and the possibility thatis always present that themurderer in a moment ofweakness will talk too muchfor his own good, which hasbeen the solution of many dif-ficult murder cases, they said.KEY TO CASE?

Two things must be estab-lished, they said: A completepicture of Anderson's activi-ties in the few weeks beforehis murder, and what type ofgun or bullet killed him.

Either of these approachesmay give a picture as to the

VITAMINS TOBE LEFT OUTOF WELFARE

Vitamin tablets and foodsupplements for the aged nolonger will be included afterJan. 1 in the medical care fundof the State Department ofSocial Welfare.

However, a spokesman forthe department pointed out;physicians under the publicassistance program may re-quest continuence of suchmedical supplies, and the pa-tients themselves may arrangefor the continuence as "a spe-cial need."

For Alameda County's iproximately 14,000 recipients ofwelfare aid, exclusion of vita-mins and food and nutritionalsupplements is not expected iowork a hardship, according toMrs. Elizabeth Schumacher,assistant director of the Wel-fare Commission. .

She said the patients' "basicneeds" fund would be expandedto include an amount for thesedrugs where the need is shown.

type of person, or possibly theperson, who shot Andersondown in the doorway of hishome at 1 Las Aromas, Orinda,the night of Nov. 25.

These are the angles theywill pursue in the next fewdays:

1 — Tomorrow they will gointo the furnace at Anderson'shome, hoping to find the bulletthat killed him. If they findit, ballistics tests may indicatewhat type of gun it came from.An effort to find it in the rugof the house yesterday was fu-tile,MAY DRAG LAKE

2— They will consider drag-ging Lake Cascade, the small,almost dry artificial lake nearthe Orinda Country Club andAnderson's home, for the mur-der weapon.

3 — The attempt to trace An-derson's credit card purchases,begun last week and then tem-porarily abandoned, will becontinued, in the hope of de-termining exactly where hewas and with whom every dayin the few weeks before hisdeath.

4 — They will continue theircheck' of every one of 300 auto-mobiles from a list supplied bythe State Department of Mo-tor Vehicles that partially fitsthe description of a car seennear the Anderson home be-fore the murder.

5— They may ask Dr. PaulKirk, famous University ofCa l i fo rn i a criminologist, toconsult with them. Dr. Kirkfigured prominently in thetrial of Burton Abbott for themurder of Stephanie Bryanand in the trial of Dr. SamuelSheppard in Ohio for thebludgeon slaying of his wife.'MAY TAKE LONG TIME'

None of these approaches isexpected to produce immedi-ate, sensational results, and "ilmay take a long time," Sher-iff's Inspector .Norman Wilsonsaid- last night.

Sheriff's Inspector Ray Stof-fels said last night that "we'redoing everything we can," andthat hard work may turn upsome clue.

Meanwhile, it appeared that

the quarrel which erupted lastweek-end when Sheriff HarryA. Brown announced he waspersonally taking over the in-vestigation, appeared to becooling off.SHERIFF CALLED

When called last night.Brown refused to come to thephone, and his wife quotedhim as saying, "Tell them totalk to Ray Stoffels. I've toldhim everything I know."

Late Friday Sheriff Brownconferred at length with Dist.Ally. Francis Collins, butneither would tell what themeeting was about.

Inspector Stoffels said lastnight he had not heard fromSheriff Brown all day, andthat he did not know what theconference was about.MORE INFORMATION

Another bit of information,useful in determining Ander-son's activities, turned up yes-terday.

A bartender from a Lafay-ette tavern reported that acouple of nights before themurder Anderson came in,ordered a drink, and thentook it to the back of the bar.He looked around nervouslywhile he drank and then left.

Inspector Stoffels said thisfitted in with previous evi-dence that Anderson had beennervous and apparently afraidfor some days before the mur-der.

PLANE SKIMS ROSE BOWLRIM AND CRASHES NEARBY

Lake Search Planned for Weapon in Orinda Murder Case__ ' .,__..._,_ ,_J..,™._ K^., u=,,n K,in»m. n,,t ihinK fhev mav not consider Mrs. Anderson or "U™6™? k"™* *"* ?"0"?:

PASADENA, Dec. 13—Wt—A small plane crashed nearby!tt^day during a Rose Bowl game,but, the pilot, Robert EdwardSmith, 28, of Burbank, escapedunhurt

A crowd of more than 50,000,watching the Junior Rose Bowlfootball game, saw the planedisappear over the rim of thestadium.

Smith told police he made a

pass over the bowl at 4,000feet, negotiated a turn overnearby Flintridge, and wasabout to make another passover the bowl when the en-gine of his war surplus PT22trainer failed.

He tried to land on theBrookside Gol£ Course, northof the bowl, but the landinggear struck a power line, flip-ping the craft upside down.

The small, nearly dry artiJicial lake about a block fromthe Orinda home of WilliamR. Anderson will be thorough-ly searched in a last, deter-mined effort to find the gunthat killed him on Nov. 25.

Contra Costa County Sher-iff's Inspector Norman Wilsonsaid last night that he wouldask that a small dike be builtacross the dry end of the lake.

It should then be a simplematter to pump the remainingwater in the lake to the dryend, permitting a thoroughsearch of the area now coveredby waler, he said.

He said he hoped to search(he lake before rains put deepwafer over the entire area.

He also said he would begina .thorough search of thetangled brush around the lake.

The possibility was dis-discussed earlier by investiga-tors of calling out Boy Scoutsand sheriff's reserve to joinin a mass hunt for the .22 cali-ber "revolver that fired asingle bullet into Anderson.The executive was killed whenhe answered the door of his$50,000 home at 1 Las Aromas,Orinda. Neither the gun northe bullet which p a s - e d

through Anderson's body havebeen found.LOOSE ENDS

Wilson, trying to clean uploose ends in the investigation,said he would like to questionLaurence Swinciki, a formeremployee fired by Anderson.Swinciki, on advice of his at-torney, has refused to answerquestions by police in NewJersey,. Wilson said.

The inspector also said hewould like to give lie detectortests to Mrs. Anderson, thewidow, and to Anderson's 25-year - old secretary, MaxineParks Filiberti, "in hopes of

bringing out things they mayhave forgotten."

Wilson said police in Cam-den, N.J.,xare attempting todetermine the whereabouts ofSwinciki the night Andersonwas murdered. Swinciki 'livesnow in nearby Pennsauken,N.J.DETAILS OF CRIME

Wilson said he was still in-terested in Anderson's ex-em-ployee because Swinciki want-ed to marry Mrs. Filiberti, ac-cording to the secretary, andAnderson was "going around"with Mrs. Filiberti.

The inspector said he did

not consider Mrs. Anderson orMrs. Filiberti s u s p o c! s. butfelt lie detector tests would beadvisable to indicate moreknowledge of suspects or de-tails of the crime unrevealedup to now.

Inspectors Ray Stoffcls saidthe possibility of using minedetectors to find the missing.22 caliber bullet hai beenruled out after tests at thePresidio in San Francisco. Thedetectors, he said, are not sen-sitive enough to pick up anobject as small as a .22 caliberbullet.

Stoffels said there have been

numerous letters and anony-mous telephone calls in th«case, but none of them hassbeen productive.

Investigatory are still check-ing out cars with license num-bers similar to -XL 190. Agreen sedan with that par*, ofthe license was seen one blockfrom the Anderson home thenight and lime o£ the murder.The number was furnished byneighbors.

The investigation thus farhas turned up the nanms andpresence of numerous womenin Anderson's life, but no out-standing clues as to the killer.
