Walters spent I Tuesday and Wednesday as guests Int the Edwards cottage on Hamil[ton Lake Mr. and Mrs. Leigh Bow- < n were also guests of the Iklwards, ' Mrs. Bowen remaining for the week. The annual Hilyard reunion will be held nt Riverside park, Findlay, | Ohio, Sunday, August 14. Friends 'of the family are also invited. I Relatives in this city are planning ] to attend. Mrs. Frederic Schafer and Mrs. : Palmer Eicher visited in Fort I Wayne today. Mr. and Mrs. Norman Kruse of "05 Winchester street have returnI ed from a month’s trip through lowa, Minnesota, Wisconsin and I Canada. During their absence their son Norman. Jr., visited In CinI cinnati and their daughter Joon i visited in Ames. lowa. Harold and Miss Mildred Nibi lick have returned from a ten day’s visit with their brother Omer in Cherokee, lowa. Mr. and Mrs. Adam Butcher re- ; celved word this morning of the birth of twins to their son and daughter-in-law, Mr. and Mrs. Louis Butcher of Delphoe, Ohio. The twins were born Tuesday July 26. They weighed six pounds, four ounces ■ and seven pounds, seven ounces. They have been named Barbara Jane and James Adam.

GOVERNOR REFUSES (CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE) and Claude Baylor of Speed were named house conferees and those from the senate will be chosen later this afternoon. The house also today refused to concur in senate amendments to the $2,000,000 county welfare aid bill and sent the measure likewise into conference between the two houses to settle the differences. Earlier, the senate had passed the appropriation bill and also had approved the welfare measure. Difference between the house and snate is over the percentages of welfare funds to be distributed by the state to the counties. Rep. Paul Sturm of Dana, a Democratic leader, made the motion to refuse to concur in senate amendments to the welfare bill and this was adopted by a loud voice vote. Rep. Allen Lomont of Fort Wayne sought to instruct the house conferees to hold out for a compromise to the effect that the state pay 30 per cent of all county relief costs above a five cent levy on each SIOO valuation. The senate bill would have the state pay 40 per cent of the county relief levies above 10 cents per SIOO valuation. Speaker Edward Stein ruled that Lomont's motion was out of order since a conference committee cannot lie instructed. The state administration today lined up behind another unexpected new law to be passed by the special session of the legislature, amending the unemployment compensation act. This noon members of the senate held a caucus and voted to eliminate the provision in the law requiring that jobless persons be required to have earned $lO since April 1 to be eligible for unemployment compensation.

The idea is that many persons have built up a balance in the unemployment compensation fund and lost their jobs slightly prior to April 1, thus being deprived of benefits to which they should be entitled. Legislative action on the other two “relief and recovery" measures —repealing the windshield “gadget" law and establishing a southern Indiana tuberculosis hospital—was completed yesterday afternoon and the bills sent to Townsend for his signature. Indications were that the special legislature would adjourn sine die tonight or tomorrow unless the house balks at the welfare bill as approved by the senate. And it appeared probable that a fight would break out in the house although strong administration pressure was being brought to have the hill approved. The senate reversed itself for the second time in two days by voting, following a lengthy party caucus, to eliminate the increased appropriations for an office building and the Newcastle improvement. For a time, the senate became completely disorganized and threatened to appropriate enough funds from the $24,5 JO,OOO balance in the state treasury to finance a. building program amounting to upwards of $13,000,000. But administration leaders, fearing that the budget might be unbalanced unless a halt was called in the spending, summoned the Democratic senators into caucus yesterday afternoon. For two hours they argued and listened to Townsend and other leaders. Many senators, particularly those sympathetic with labor, wanted to have the office building retained. But Townsend was adamant and the senators finally agreed to reduce the appropriation below the $6,000,000 maximum decided upon several days ago. Once back in session, the senate required only 15 minutes to eliminate the $1,171,000 from the build-

This left $5,314,750 as the total j amount to be appropriated for buildings. The house bill provided for expenditures of $5,651,000 but the senate sliced off $337,000 by eliminating two national guard armories and reducing the allocation for an Indiana University extension building in Lake county from $251,000 to $55,000. I At one point in its proceedings, , the senate decided to pare the appropriations measure by $1,200,000, ’ but gave this up and then went to the other extreme.

Towne is an experienced Arctic flier and aviators were not exceedingly apprehensive over the safety of the missing party. The first rule of Polar flying is to sit down and wait until the weather clears and veteran aviators said that it was most likely that Towne landed at one of the three or four available emergency fields along the route. All of these points were without communication at night except for a chance contact by short wave radio, and Alaskans seldom arouse themselves early In the morning. The course of the flight was over a desolate almost uninhabited country and a forced landing would be dagerous. Tnhe Grumma amphibian has a cruising speed of 130 miles an hour and a top speed of 160.
