State Senate Costs Highest In History Expenses Exceeded Any Prior Session INDIANAPOLIS, VP-Indiqna’s 1953 senate spent more rhoney for lawmaking expenses than in any previous Glrday session. Reports on file today with secretary of state Crawfbrd F. Parker showed total expenses for the upper chamber at $136,784.87. It was $28,253.95 more than the 1951 session. Most of the increase couldi be chalked up to the controversial $lO per day expense allowance legislators voted themselves. On the Senate side, it cost an extra $26,710. Each lawmaker was voted $61(7 extra pay for the two-month period. One senator died during the session and drew only about twothirds of that, and six senators refused to accept it. The six, all Republicans, were 'Roscoe Hollingsworth, Lebanon, Ed Whitcomb, Hayden, Lemuel A. Pittenger, Selma, Richard Newhouse, Morristown. Charles R. Kellum, Mooresville, and Carl J. Moldenhauer. Huntington. The 1953 printing bill was $50,446.15, up aliout SIO,OOO from two years ago. Observers said printing costs were- more because the bills senators introduced were bigger. \ — Six-Year-Old Boy Is Killed By Auto PLYMOUTH, Ind.; UP —Robert Whiteman, 6.

Enemy Planes Stage Raid On U. N. Air Base Biggest Air Attack By Enemy Airplanes Since Early In War SEQUL, Korea UP I— Communist planes sneaked through an Allied radar curtain ioday and dropped bombs on a United Nations gir base near Seoul in the • biggest Red air raid siijce the early days of the war. The propeller-driven planes, possibly as many as 15, struck and got ■ away before they cpulti be intercepted. There was no' immediate estimate of damage caused by the raiders; \ 'J UH As the enemy aircriaft neared their target, the Allied base at Kimpo airfield, a “Red’’ airi raid alert was sounded. The siren wailed '‘all clear” 25 minutes later. The Reds, obviously attempting to retaliate against continued Allied hammering of their supply lines arid strike at the cause of their heavy jet plane josses, carried light bombs. A sth air force spokesman said radar spotters reported five planes at first, but the screens later showed 15 tracks. It was believed the raiders were light planer similar to the antiquated leraft used by Communist “Bedcheck Charlies” w’ho harass the Allies from time to time. A brilliant "bombeUs moon” which permitted the Re4s to stage their pre-dawn raid also aided Allied pilqts. U. N. nigh|t bombers ruined 70 trucks and hit an enemy airfield at Sunan that may have) been the home base of the Kimpo raiders. Twelve! \B-29 Superforts from Okinawa dropped 130; tons of
bombs on a 55-acre supply area five miles north of Kyomipo’ Before returning to Okinawa, the Superforts blasted a 120-acre supply area threri miles east of Ongjin on the Haeju Peninsula. There was a slight slackening of ground fighting. The battleship New Jersey, trained its big guns on k the battered Communist bastion at Wonsan. Cut Purchase Os Books For Overseas Agency Under Attack By Sen. McCarthy WASHINGTON, UR — The state department's international information administration, which has been under attack by Sen. Joseph R. McCarthy, has sharply- reduced its purchases of books for U. S. libraries overseas. A spokesman acknowledged that book purchases for the foreign library program fell to 1,592 last month, compared to a monthly average of 20,6'23 during the 1952 fiscal year. The spokesman l said he did not know the reason for the curtailment. But some officials- qf the information administration told reporters privately that book purchases have dwindled because of confusion resulting from a March 18 order. | The order banned the use in U. S. information libraries of of any book written by a known Communist; it also set up "suitability standards” for judging whether other books should be purchased. L The new rules were put into effect after McCarthy (R-Wis.) and his senate investigating subcommittee started looking into Voice of America and other foreign information operations' • | McCarthy’s group eapeclally criticized purchase of "Communiat authored” books for overseas libraries.

Wanted Criminal Captured By FBI Convicted Killer Nabbed In Chicago CHICAGO UP -The FBI today crossed a convicted, murdered and clever escape artist off 4ts list, of “10 most wanted criminals.” Two agents captured tough David Dallas Taylor, 26, in heavy traffic here Tuesday. The fugitive will be. arraigned before U. S. commissioner C. S. Bentley Pike today on a charge of unlawful flight to avoid confinement on a charge of murder. Taylor, who has escaped custody 1 at least four times, stands convicted of the murder of a guard in his first jail break. The short order cook and construction worker married a 17-year-old girl here last February, a month before the FBI placed him on tße "mbit wanted" list. The arresting G-men said he df- ' The FBI said the agents were on their way to a neighborhood where they thought he might be found when they spotted the fugitive driving near Wilson and Broadway on the North Side, i Taylor tried to outspeed the FBI agents and passed a loaded bus on the wrong side. But he was blocked by an incoming bus and a traffic snarl. V FBI records showed the killer’s latest escape took place Sept, 1, 1952, when .he jumped from a train in Birmingham. Ala., while handcuffed and und.er guard. He removed the ’Cuffs with a hairpin. Taylor’s first jail break led to the murder charge against him. He and another prisoner broke out of Walker county jail at Jasper, Ala., where he was serving a two-year sentence for grand larceny, June 25, 1948. A guard was killed by a head blow administered by a stocking loaded with a heavy weight. . I Taylor was recaptured shortly Afterward, convicted of second de-
3ee murder and larceny and given years for the killing and 12 more for larceny. . •! •\. ?
