Monroe Fields today ordered the Pike county circuit grand jury, which adjourned Saturday, to reconvene Wednesday to consider charges against Anderson Adkins, charged with killing three persons and seriously wounding fourth. The dead, Adkins' in-laws until his recent divorce, were Mrs. Orbin K. Long, 34, of Millard; Mrs. Tom Johnson, 49, of Millard, and Clarence Blackburn, 29, of Regina.

Mrs. Burton Bently, 26, of Regina, was shot three times and attendants at a Pikeville hospital reported her condition remains "grave." Sheriff D. T. Keel ascribed the shootings to "family trouble." He said Adkins' divorced wife, Mrs. Elmo Adkins, now lives at Osborne, near Dayton, Ohio, and that Adkins had sought custody of their 10-year old son, living with his former wife's relatives.

The said Adkins first shot Mrs. Long in front of her home at Millard, drove off a short distance, then returned to shoot Mrs. Johnson, Mrs. Long's sister and neighbor, after she came out to see what had happened to Mrs. Long.

Adkins, the sheriff, said, then drove to the home of Mrs. Burton Bentey, fesled her with three shots, then went on to the home of Clarence Blackburn. Blackburn was fatally shot when he grappled with Adkins as he tried to shoot Mrs. Blackburn, a sister of the other victims. The sheriff said Adkins was taken into custody about an hour after the shootings, as he walked along a mountain road.

Visitors to Adkins' cell in the county jail here, where he is held without bond, described the man as calm and said he had not shown any signs of nervousness. Sheriff Keel reported that Adkins "slept like a baby" during his first night in jail. State Faces Acute Physician Shortage LOUISVILLE, Feb. 12. (UP) -Kentucky's need physicians, whose numbers have been reduced sharply by demands of the armed forces and industry, is becoming acute daily, Dr.

P. E. Blackerby, state chairman for the Office of Procurement and Assignment of Physicians, revealed today. Dr. Blackerby, state health commissioner, said since war the state had sent 560 physicians into service and those remaining to fill needs were being, overcivilian worked.

Many older physicians have died as a result of strain and over-burdening, Dr. Blackerby said, and are just as much "war casualties" as injured or killed He on said the battlefield." the 1,900 licensed physicians to serve more than 2,845,000 Kentuckians, wheredays there were approximately. 2,600. The present state is one physician to about 1,500 population, he said, compared with a 1941 ratio of one to every 1,100. "I cross my fingers, but the state has been extremely lucky not to have had any major epidemic the war started," he said, recalling that during the first World War the country was swept by an influenza epidemic that took thousands of lives.

Dr. Blackerby said he was submitting a report. to the national Procurement and Assignment Office in Washington listing 10 Kentucky needed locations where physicians direly. The list inthe names of nine towns Fancy Farm, Brandenburg, without any physicians Hustonville, Pollytown, Gratz, Sandy Hook, Warsaw and Webbville.

P. Meeting At Louisville LOUISVILLE, Feb. 12 (P)- Harlan county's long-standing Republican chairmanship contest was settled here today by the Republican State Central Committee. The G. O.

P. executive group, meeting before the party's annual Lincoln Day dinner here, adopted by a vote of 18 to three a subcommittee report recommending that State Senator Lawrence Carter be seated. The contestant was Orville Howard. Indiana's Governor Ralph Gates spoke at the dinner tonight and recommended a Republican program, arranged between congressional and party leaders, submitted in bill form and introduced in congressies. who has had 25 years of political experience in Indiana and who has been Indiana's chief executive for one month, outlined the success of the Republican party in his state and suggested a similar pattern be followed for the national party organization.

In a speech prepared for, delivery before the G. O. P. assembly, the Indiana governor stressed the need for a postwar program, which, can become a reality "only if our national congress will now, by proper legislation, provide for the unshackling of business, so that free enterprise can go forward upon the cessation of hostilities. Chairman W.

A. Stanfill outlined to the state central committee at its meeting the reasons why the Republicans lost the presidential election. The committee deferred action on a McCreary county contest in which L. C. Bruce, Stearns, is contesting the election of G.

C. Walker. Whitley City. The committe unanimously elected John S. Petot, of Louisville, treasurer to fill the created by the death of vacancy, Arthur E.

Hopkins. Explains Republican Defeat In reviewing the Republican defeat last year, Chairman Stantill said President Roosevelt's promise "to bring back the sons and daughters quicker and safer was the deciding factor, even it he had his ringers crossed when ne said it. In the face of his many broken promises, the fathers and mother of America believed him again." "The election was not won," he continued, "by the C. 0. Communists.

It was not won by the millions of useless employees on the pay rolls of the political bureaus; it was not won by the big city machine bosses; it was not won by the millions of well-paid war workers or by the New Deal party machine, itself. "These were heavy contributing factors, but not the deciding Stanfill said. 'These evils and the bought vote will disappear when Congress stops huge appropriations for their support, as it must when the war is over." The chairman, citing "what we ought to do about it," said organization should begin now for legislative election this year, the 1946 congressional election, the 1947 gubernatorial elections, and the 1948 presidential election. The director of such an organization, he advocated, should be "vigorous and aggressive" and should have at least two assistants, one for the eastern part of the state and one for the western part. Stanfill said Hammond associates, Baltimore, a professional money employed to help organization, raise funds necessary to support the group he recommended.

A Kentucky Republican club to raise party funds already has been organized in the state.

Landrum, and Robert H. Haley, Loyall precinct. Four defendants pleaded guilty each of the first two days when the cases were called for trial or assignment last Monday.

They were released under original bonds of $1,000 each and directed to appear March 19 for judgment, Maximum penalty is $5,000 fine and 10 years imprisonment. Judge H. Ford refused a motion for continuance for the cases outset. The motion was based on a plea that many of the witnesses were miners and that to call them from their jobs would curtail production of urgently needed coal. Stephens told Judge Ford the prosecution would not call miners or their wives as witnesses where their absence would affect coal production.

Another development at opening of the cases was a statement by Harry B. Miller, Lexington, attorney representing several of the defendants, that he had reached an agreement with Department of tice officials in Washington whereby the first four defendants would plead guilty and be probated and the other cases would be dismissed. Judge Ford told him he could accept no such agreement. The first eight to plead guilty were Mrs. Sallie Gilbert, her husband John D.

Gilbert, Steve King and Oscar Page, Verda precinct, and Clarence Poer, former Harlan county jailer, Sidney Solomon Pope, Odell J. Shepherd and Verlin Fee, Pansy precinct.
