Fired Studebaker Workers Testify Lost Jobs For Not Owning Studebakers SOUTH BEIND U'P ' — Three ■Studebaker employes including a justice of the petace staid Thursday they lost their jobs because they owned autos other than Studebakers. ' Oaiy Twp. justice Ernest Kinsafer. who worked as a paint mixer, said he was suspended because his wife owned a 1963 Buick. He said he bought a 1950 Studebaker after his suspension, but flailed to get his job beck. ' He and ue two others appeared at a national labor relations board hearing concerned with the charges, which were denied by the auto manufacturing firm. Joseph Solomos, another em-. ploye, said he sold his car and avoided suspension by showing proof ot the sale to a management official. Charles Buwa said, he tried to sell his ‘‘offmake" car but was suspended gnyway. •Studebaker earlier issued a statement to the effect men were suspended but not fired because other workers disapproved of the autos they bought and reifused to work with them. dPSlicials said the situation threatened a general shutdown and it was thought best to suspend the men pending a settlement. j ■ Local 5 of the CIO United Auto Workers told Kinsafer if he bought a used Studebaker he would “toe right with the men in your department,” Kinsafer said.

Spring Opening At Redecorated Store The newly redeeorated and lifodernized E. F. Gass store will hold a spring opening Saturday. "The store has been attractively redecorated and new racks and cases for the display of women's garments have been installed. The ready-to-wear store is operated by Mr. and Mrs. William Gass. 36 Million Dollars For Franked Mail Figure Submitted By Summerfield WASHINGTON UP — It costs taxpayers about 36 million dollars a year to have mail delivered free for government officials and congressmen, it was disclosed today. Postmaster general Arthur E. Summerfield submitted, the estimtete to a house appropriations subcommittee in seeking approval of 12,760.000,M0 spending budget in fiscal 1966. He said providing “franked” or tyee mail for congressmen costs the department about J 1,700,000 to deliver, “penalty” mail of othfer government officials around J35,300,000, he said. Under a recent revision in postal laws, the department is ‘‘reimibursed” by other, agencies Apr these expenditures. Summerfield lauded the change, saying it gives congress a chance to “scrutinize the requests of various departments for suras which they ask for mealing costs.” The postmaster general also said fewer and fewer requests are being received to rfstore twice-a-day mail deliveries and “I think that it is not a matter of great concern now.” He suggested an independent commission be established to take over from congress the job at fixing postal rates. Congressmen are so busy with other things that it is difficult “in fairness to the users of the mails, or themselves, to quickly and effectively decide oh what rates should be.” Viet Nam. one of Indochina's three Associated States, holds all but 5,0(10,000 of the region’s estimated 27,000,000 population.

Order Chicago Dogs And Cats Inoculated Unprecedented Step Is Ordered By State ORDER CHICAGO DOGS CHICAGO, UP — Animal lover Irene Castle, one-time darling ot the Broadway stage, today offered to let a mad dog bite her to save her four-footed friends from the pain and danger of a hypodermic needle. " ' The state of Illinois ordered every dog and cat in Chicago inoculated against rabies in an unprecedented step to halt an epidemic of the disease that has killed one child and seen several mass attacks by slavering dogs. Dog pounds were filling up and officials said they may have to start destroying strays in wholesale lota to make room for newcomers. ' As humane society officials called tor “calmness rather than hysteria.” a farmer near Chicago telephoned the sheriffs office to report that he had shot both his dog and cat because of fear of rabies. -- ——— -<7 — Miss Castle, who is now Mrs. George Basinger and operates the famous Orphans es the Storm animal shelter at nearby Deerfield, 111., said "inoculations would paralyze the hind legs of dogs." She offered to put up $5,000 and challenged, “no one can prove that a person bitten by a rabid dog ever died an a result.” “She wotfld most certainly die,” said Chicago health board president Dr. Horman Budeaen. “Well, w;hy don’t they let me do it, then,” she answered. Her statements about rabies were not supported by medical opinion. It is considered one of the most virulent of diseases, is always fatal after incubation and is accompanied by incredible suffering. . _ ----- She said she bad been bitten about “three times a week” at her animal shelter, which she said took in an average of 14,000 homeless dogs a year. “I’ve been bitten by dogs foaming at the mouth and I’m not dead yet.” she said. The inoculation order, which wiH undoubtedly be resisted by many pet owners, was likely to cost Chicagoans about one million {dollars at $3 a shot for an estimated 350,900 dogs and 250,000 cats, some of which have already received shots.
