1 Ike Entertains At Private Stag Dinner National Figures Guests At Dinner WASHINGTON UP —President Eisenhower gave a private stag dinner Monday night for 13 topdrawer national figures, including ex-president Herbert Hoover and , Gen. Douglas MacArthur who were- ; making their first White House visit since the Republicans moved in last January. The White House described the dinner as “a purely social aiifair arranged two weeks ago.’’ TJie naturh of the guest fist, the timing of the affalr-when a' Koi rean truce seemed not far away , and the last-minute manner in I which the White House disclosed the gathering set off speculation Mr. .Eisenhower might be seeking counsel on some major policy decision. But the most careful checking failed to turn up any proof this was the case. The guests, in addition to Mr. Hoover and MacArthur, included Francis Cardinal S;>ellman of New York; Henry Cabot Lodge, U* S. i representative to the United Na.l tions; secretary of state John Foster Dulles; secretary of treasury George M. Humphrey;; secretary of i labor Martin P. liurkin; lEdwarl L. Ryerson, Chicago, chairman of the, board of Inland -Steel Co., Lessingl J Rosenwald Philadelphia philanthropist; Qr. Milton S.

Flood Waters spilled around big Sioux City office buildings, into' the sprawling stockyards district; and into the industrial plant area. I Boats rescued people from the I Stockyards Exchange and the Badgerow Office building, the I citys tallest. Gov. William S. Beardsley dedared an emergency at Spencer. ' where 30 blocks were flooded and 150 fled their: homes. Mayors declared emergencies at Sheldon and Estherville; (At least 25 persons evacuated at Estherville. Beardsley ordered three national guard units on duty at Sioux City, two at Spencer and one at Le Mars. Sioux City’s 83.991 residents were stunned by the speed and force of the flood there—-one of the worst in the city’s history. Waters hit the stockyards near the Missouri river so suddenly that. 200 to 300 head of livestock were believed trapped and drowned.

The committee boosted the amount of new funds voted by the house by! almost $4,000,006.

Big Business Fights Profits j Tax Extension NAM, National C. Os C. Opposes Extension Os Tax 1■ ■ i WASHINGTON UP — The national association of manufacturers and the U. S. Chamber of Com- !| merce urged the house ways and means committee today to reject , President Eisenhower's request for a six months extension of the excess pi of its tax. A contrary stand was taken by the CIO, which; proposed .that the committee go further than Mr. Eisenhower suggested and continue the levy indefinitely. Stanley H. Ruttepbeig, director of the ClO's (education and researc hdepartnient, said the" revenue produced tiy the excess profits tax or corporations “is essential for fischl stability.” The present excess profits tax law expires June 30. The administration has asked for extension : through Dec. 31 to provide an additional $800,000,0 30 in revenue. That ( would make the expiration coincide with an individqal tax cut of about 10 per cent. |Administration officials had tri6d to persuade the Chamber Os Commerce and NAM to support the President’s request or, at least, remain neutral. But laundiy equipment manufacturer Fred Maytag. NewCoji, la., told the committee the NAM considers the tax “fantastically discriminatory” > against small and ( growing businesses. Undersecretary of treasury Marion B. Folsom asked him what the NAM’s position would be, Maytag said, and a poll; of NAM directors was ordered. The directors voted 84 to 46 to go along with the extension, but a two-thirds majority was required to change the NAM’s long-standing policy of opposition to the excees profits tax. Richard L. Bowditch, Boston businessman and president of the Chamber of Commerce, said his organization also was reluctaht to oppose the administration, \but Its board of directors decided that she tax should be allowed to die on schedule. Rural Youth Meet Thursday Evening The Adams county rural youth will hold the regular meeting Thursday at 8 p in. at the Lincoln school gym. The feature of the evening wjli be a film on polio.

Despite pressure from the , United States aimed at avoiding an open break with Rhee, opposition to the pending truce mounts hourly in South Korea. Anti-truce demonstrations, so. the most part without viotence, continue in.the capital city of Seoul. The national assembly also hintted that South Korea should resist with fore? of arms, if necessary, “should foreign troops land to supervise prisoners who refuse repatriation.” !■

L — — Automatic Postage I Meter Is Installed p Local Post Office Has New Service Users of the Decatur post office litefally never had it so good! Np more tongue-licking lof postage stambs and labels-at the win(dow, and no more dashing away from the window to buy labels after a long wait in line.; . A new directive from the post, office department makes if possible to print on a parcel post item: ‘may be opened for postal inspection,” instead of the lender having to go hunt up a form label. < This will, ho doubt, delight housewives, and permit them to complete the parcel post orperation of packaging right in the home without having to traipse all oyer town for, a label, j Postmaster general Sumpierfield explaipell-tdDjfisX offices that much time from the new order. The orm’Jhing asked of the public is that Me printing be legible if it is handwritten. The inscription may be placed either above or below the sender's return address. The local post office now has an automatic postage meter that doles out a small printed label, already moistened and with the proper amount of postage on it, from one cent to $lO. The machine is purchased by the government from the Pitney-Bowes Company and has been made available to the local post office through the efforts of Leo W. Kirsch, postmaster. who applied for it a long time ago. Decatur is the first city of its size Jo have an automatic meter installed and they are expected to go out to some 30 larger! cities who will be getting the service for the first time. It works like this: The man at the window tells you how much the postage is. but instead ofiiim handing you back a sheaf of stamps to lick —when you turn over the money—he merely sets the amount on the machine, punches a button, and out pops the label j , . one label, and all there is to do is press it on the package. ' The new post office model- completely eliminates the storing, selecting, handling and affixing of the various denonfinations of stamps needed to make up the postage charges. In a test at a typical post office window a queue of 60 parcel-laden people standing in line were serviced in 10 minutes. Another advantage of the automatic system is the fact that cashiers and clerks are protected by a foolproof postage control and accounting system enabled by the register on the machine tt\at can be read like an electric or gas meter, without guesswork. Further, the postage, even when imprinted, is non-negotiable. \ — tt a-, Tornadoes <Co«tinned From Page Owe) tion volunteered the- use pf 1 its trucks in the area. General Motors Corp., its extensive auto l plants in Flint untouched by the storm, appropriated SIOO,OOO for relief work. The twister here also struck at Mt. Morris, Columbiaville, several rural districts in Lapeer county. Lake Port, and then disappeared over Lake Huron, demolishing, farm buildings, bowling over trees and utility poles, and killing livestock after taking its .tqlj .of human life. The death toll exceeded tha| of last month’s twister at San Angelo and Waco, Tex., where 133 died. In addition to the dead at Flint, four died at Tawas, four at Erie, one at Pleasant Lake and one at Imlay, all in Michigan, p Most of Ohio’s 19 deaths were

School Segregation Ruling Postponed Further Arguments Before High Court WASHINGTON UP—An obviously divided and troubled supreme court sought additional legal opinion today before trying to decide the momentous issue of school segregation. ■ After more than five months of study,.the justices announced Monday they woqld not rule this term on Negro demands that segregation in secondary schools be outlawed. Instead, they called so new arguments in the historic legal drama. Parties in the five test cases before the court were noti-' fiej new hearings would begin Oct. 12. (I Some southern leaders were “encouraged” by the ruling butj others adopted a "wait and see” attitude. The national assbeiation for the advancement of colored people said it regretted the delay but was pleased the issue was to be settled calmly in! court rath r thaft “through hysterical mob appeal by politicians.” The court appeared unanimous on at least one point—that to decree a revolution in the folkways of a nation is no light task. Negroes have contended that school segregation removes them from the main stream of American life and relegates them to second - class citizenship. But state officials have prophesied ceaseless turmoil if Segregation is outlawed, with public school systems demoralized or eVen destroyed. (> 1 b-. - ( at Cleveland. ; State police counted 517 persons injured in Michigan and more than ikoo ix Ohio. Flint hospitals and first aid stations treated 435 injured persons, and many of them were still on the “critical” list Tuesday afternoon. Twelve more were injured at Erie, 26 at Columbiaville, four at Kings Mill, 33 at Lakeport, seven at Imlay City, and nine in a separate byt smaller twister at Tawas, to the north. 23,000 Draftees Are Ordered For August WASHINGTON UP — The defense department has ordered selective service to induct 23.000 more draftees for the army in August. t »“ Trade in a good Town —Decatur

During his visit Radford will see South Korean President Syngman Rhee. 5. Despite the tough talk; of Rhee, his officers, and the; South Korean parliament, U.

This feeling was shared in ( Washington by both administra-’; tion and congressional leaders, i 7. The Chinese Communist Peiping Radio broadcast a newspaper editorial which said the U.'.N., during an armistice, wotfld face a "test” in seeing to it that Routh Korea did not try to .’-forcibjy de- ! tain” anti-Communist war prisoners. 8. The same editorial criticized President Eisenhower’s offer of a mutual -security pact to South Korea.” This offer, Peiping said, would put an “obstacle in the path of a peaceful settlement of the Korean question.” It was hoped here that an armistice may be signed within a week or 10 days, with a cease-fire line CATS— * , PARTIES — DINNERS BANQUETS — WEDDINGS HOTEL COFFEE SHOPPE
