Reject Proposal To Limit Editorials House Committee Studies Spending WASHINGTON UP —The special house committee on campaign spending today rejected a proposal to limit the amount of “editorial space” a newspaper m4y devote to a political candidate. Members of both parties expressed vigorous objections to the proposal advanced by Rep.. Clare E. Hoffman R-Mlch. in testimony before the committee Tuesday. The committee's hearings on the high cost of campaigning resumed today with- Walter Williams of Seattle as the featured witness. He headed the citizens for Eisenhower organization during the presidential campaign and recently wais named undersecretary of commerce in the Eisenhower cabinet. Dismayed by estimates that the recent campaign cost upwards of $100,"000,0(10, the committed is trying to determine whether hew legislation is needed to control political spending. Several yritnessies have said the present $3,000,000 limit for each campaign {committee is “unrealistic” because there is no limit on the number of committees that may be set up to pupport a given candidate. ! \ Hoffman said there is little point to laws limiting campaign spending, unless legislation also is enacted to limit |he amount of free “editorial space” editors can give favored candidates to further their campaigns.

The pwine on display today in the International Amphitheatre are on the lean side, the result of attempts to make the bacon and ham less fatty in the frying pan. Judging in various swine classes since young Rolland Anderson, Leland, 111., won the junior championship last Saturday has laid the groundwork for today’s top event. College producers have stressed the importance of keeping prize swine in top condition. They say do not prize the fat hog that laymen visualize wallowing in the mud. One of the contenders for the top spot was a city-bred porker, “Mr. Light Green Smith,” which was evicted from its pen in a Chicago back yard by complaining neighbors.

Michigan Man Dies In Truck Accident ELKHART, Ind. UP —Edward Neff; 62, Edwardsburg, Mich., died Tuesday of injuries suffered when his light truck skidded on snowpacked U. S. 117 and struck two oil trucks. World-Friendship Banquet Is Held - District Meeting Held By Methodists Thirty young people and adult counselors from the First Methodist church attended the annual world-friendship banquet > of the Fort Wayne district Sunday evening. These include: Vera Walters. Carol Elzey, Janet Hott, Leah Brandyberry, Janet Hetrick, Sara Gerber, Janice Hall, Anita Smith, Barbara Lewton, \ Janet Everhart, Janet Lane, Phil Krick, Norman Pollock, Luther Schrock, Charles Judt, Earl and Robert Sprague, Bob Ochsenrider, David Uhrick, Jack Lawson, Kent Koons, Harold Sommer, Mrs. Robert Theobald, Mrs. J. E. Thacker, and the Rev. Samuel Emerick. There was aq Additional group off adults who attended the latter part of the program to hear the address. Bishop Richard C. Raines, Indianapolis, was the guest speaker. He related many personal experiences from his recent tour of the Korean war front and his visit to servicemen’s centers in Japan. The bishop’s address indicated some things the church can do lnthe present crisis: (1) It can emphasize what America is for, rather than always exalting the things we may be against. (2) It can help keep before America a sound perspective of war; that war never provides a cure for problems, c (3) That, as she America is not prepared to be u»ed of God to bring peace; she must first be redeemed and remade, and this is the church’s job. A nation that spends nine billions of dollars on ! alcohol and one billion for the Christian cause has need of cleansing. To the young people, many of them facing military service, the bishop urged: (1) Every youth should keep the great dreams of his Hfe alive. Military service is but anrinterlude. (2) Every youth should listen for God’s call, for God has something for each of us to do. (3) We must rethink what democracy is, and what IV takes to keep it going. * | Lattimore Willing To Aid In Probe Grand Jury Probes j Perjury Charges WASHINGTON, UP -V Far Eastern specialist Owen Lattimore indicated today he is willing to cooperate in the forthcoming grand jury investigation of perjury charges against him. The Johns Hopkins University professor apparently was undisturbed by attorney general James P. McGranery’s announcement that 4 federal grand jury here will begin an inquiry Thursday into Lattimpre’s testimony before the senate | internal security subcommittee] y In a telephone interview from his Baltimore, Md., home, Lattlmore declined to say whether he will ask for a chance to testify before the grand jury. \ But he recalled he issued a formal statement last July after the subcommittee had accused him of

testifying “untruthfully” and had called upon the justice department to. let a grand jury determine if he committed perjury. |At the time, Lattimorh dismissed the perjury charge as “fantastic arid insane.” But he said he was \‘quite prepared to assist any inquiry that may be considered necessary by any responsible authority.” Referring reporters to [his July statement, he said today!: “It , is still very appropriate.” Lattimore, a one-time state department consultant on Far Eastern affairs, has ’ been one of the main targets of Sen. Joseph. R. McCarthy (R-Wls.) McCarthy accused Lattimore in 1950 of being the top Soviet agent in this country. A’ senate foreign relations subcommittee, headed by former Sen. Millard E. Tydlngs, _(D-Md.) investigated and dismissed the charge. McCarthy promptly labeled its action a “whitewash.”
