Held on changes of auto banditry were Edward Manuel, 24, and Charles E. Miller, 22. Charged with burglary and bound over to criminal court were Oscar Manuel, 25, and Jack Barnes, 47. Barnes was released <n 310,000 bond. * Officers said a suspicious truck parked near an office that had been broken into led to the cracking of the ring. They said the truck was traced to Barnes, who was arrested along with Oscar Manuel. Failure of hia alleged confederates to provide bond for Oscar Manuel prompted him to confess, police said. They said he was angered and talked "loud and long." Authorities said he implicated the othei* three suspects, his broth- | er, Earl Manuel, 48, and two other I men police would not identify.
Studies Means To Give Break To Taxpayers I Senator Studying Break To Taxpayer On Earned Income WASHINGTON, (UP) — Sen. Frank Carlson said today he id exploring the possibility of giving taxpayers a break on "earned income” to balance proposed tax concessions to stockholders. The Kansas Republican said he is studying the operation of the pre-war "earned income tax credit” as one way of providing general income tax cuts this year it congress decides relief is necessary. This credit, repealed in 1943, allowed taxpayers to subtract. 10 percent from their net income, after deductions but before exemptions, and pay income taxes on this rather than the full amount. Carlson emphasized that he is not yet committed to this or any other formula for general tax relief. He said that he. too, is waiting for further information on the economic situation. President Eisenhpwer said last week that he would consider government action, including possible tax concessions, if economic reports fail to show the usual seasonal upswing in March. Carlson is a close friend of Mr. Eisenhower and a member of the tax-writing senate finance committee. He and other Republicans appear to be waiting for signals from the administration before advocating any general income tax relief. As of now, the administration program calls for selective relief for some personal income taxpayers and other concessions to encourage business investment. Democrats in both the house and senate are uniting behind proposals to increase exemptions, now S6OO for each taxpayer and dependent, by 3100 or 3200.

Balloon Offensive Urged By Douglas Send Food, Messages Behind Iron Curtain WASHINGTON UP — Sen. Paul H. Douglas today proposed a two-•million-dollar "balloon offensive" to carry messages and packets of surplus food across the Iron Curtain into the Russian satellites. The Illinois Democrat said he plans to Introduce a resolution to authorize the secretary of state to carry on such a campaign. Meanwhile, the UjS. information agency estimated in congressional testimony made public today that Russia spent more than 31,160,000,000 on propaganda programs last year. Director Theodore C. Streibert said (Moscow's satellites spent another 529-mililon dollars supporting the Soviet propaganda effort. And these figures do not count untotaled sums spent indirectly on propaganda outside the Iron Curtain, he said. Douglas declared in a statement that food piide available to East Germans in Berlins’ western zone resulted in "one of the worst beatings communism has taken.” He said the feasibility of sending, balloons into the satellites was proved several years ago. "The Communists do not pass up any effective propaganda weapon in carrying on their war against free governments and 1 do not see why we should not use any means available to counteract them. I am convinced that a program such as I have proposed would, if carried out, shake the control of communism over those countries" Douglas said. “The use of freedom food in small packets, capable of being* airborne, could have a tremendous effect in offsetting (Communist propaganda of starvation and scarcity in this country. Anyone who picks up a bit of freedom food wrapped in a freedom message is not going to be misled by lies that We are starving." the senator said. .. ... >, ‘ _ 39 Parking Meters Smashed At Capital INDIANAPOLIS UP — For a few dollars in loot, thieves have smashed 29 downtown parking meters valued at more than 15 hundred dollars in the last 24 hours, city police said today.

ously, to transform our government without our suspecting the change is under way." Jenner, an original backer of the proposal of Sen. John W. Bricker R-Ohio, spoke in support of Bricker’s latest compromise substitute. Jenner charged under former secretary of state Dean Acheson, the state department became “permeated" by “planners” who made it the "principal agent of the ideological revolution started by Harry Hopkins, Alger Hiss, Henry Wallace, Owen Lattimore, Harry Dexter White, Frank Coe and Harqld Glasser." He said he hopes the Eisenhower administration “.will go down in history as the moment when the revolutionary cabals, which perverted our treaties and executive, agreements in foreign affairs, in order to convert us into a oneparty state, are defeated at last, and the defenders of our constitution gain their final victory.”. i ■■■■
