cago Meeks said that apparently the center section of one of the trains jumped the tracks when it was crossing the Pennsylvania railroad tracks which bisects the NYC tracks. One freight was east bound and the other west bound. None of the train crewmen wits injured and both locomotives stayed on the tracks, * Meeks said it was hard to tel! exactly how many cars were wrecked because “they are all piled up." He said some cars were squeezed so that they were only two feet thick. One car was “burled l|ke a spade" tn an embankment paralleling the tracks. Sound Finance Plan Needed On Highways Sees Approval For Eisenhower's Plan WASHINGTON (INS) — A Democrat on the senate public works committee said today that President t Eisenhower needs* pnly to come up with a sound financing plan to win easy approval of his long-range highway program. The President, told key legislators this week he intends to ask for a 10-year construction program q>reromably following the lines of his proposal for a 50-billion-dollar project, with the federal government assuming about half the cost. Sen. John C. Stennis (D Miss.,) high-ranking member of the com- . mittee, which will study the plan, said he considers the search for a satisfactory financing program the only possible obstacle. 'Mr. Eisenhower did not Indicate financing details: A special 30year bond issue has been discussed. A special presidential committee, headed by retiring Gen. Lucius Clay, will report to z the White House soon on highway’, reeom • mehdations. Clay ha| already said he thinks the federal government should take care of about 24 billion dollars in road construction in the next ten years. The group is expected to propose a federal authority which would issue bonds, with principal and interest guaranteed by earmarking revenue from gasoline, motor oil and automobile excise taxes.

Purdue Leads List Os Foreign Pupils 7,834 Out-Of-State Students In State INDIANAPOLIS (INS) The Indiana Chamber of Commerce today released figures showing 7,834 out-of-state students are taking advan-. tage of educational facilities al Indiana's four state supported schools. t --*i- ‘ ' -■ Purdue leads the list with 4,557 "foreign’’ students. Indiana University is second with 2,762, aT.d the remainder are rather evenly divided between Ball State and Indiana State- teachers colleges. State budget director Dwnald Clark said it is difficult to say how much it cost to educate each student but it appears certain the tuition costs do not cover the cost of education. The legislature may ask for an accounting before it approves Pur-’ due's budget request for the next biennium of $24,941.1)68; lU’s of $24,655,140, and a total of dess than SB-million asked by the two teachers colleges. *" Figures complied by the federal office ofW education in 1949-51 disputed the claim that Hoosier migration balanced the invasion with 9,288 out-of-staters visiting Indiana's four schools and 3,789 Hoosiers going to other statfrrobtrollcd schools. lADVERTISEMKaT FOR BIOS ■Notice Is hereby given that the Oominon Council of the ' -City of Berne, Indiana will receive sealed blds at the oiffhe of Vhe ClerkTreasurer, until the hour of 7:30 O'flwk, Central I'ay Ilk'll t Saving Time, on the 27th dav of December, 1»54, at which <4me the Mda will be publicly opened and read alet «1 for the following deecribed equipment: 1 - 133 m New and t'riuaed Passenger AutomoH'lle, Body Style-Two door Sedan, Color Black.

Sen. Holland Warns' Farm Bureau Parley Says Dairy Price Support May End NEW YORK (INS) — Sen. Spessard L. Holland (D Fla), warned the American Farm Bureau Federation Today that many congressmen "favor the entire abolition of price support tor dairy’ng.” The 1 Florida Democrat, in a speech prepared tor delivery before the federation, convention in New York, also said there was “ certainly much public sentiment” in favor of eliminating dairy supports. Holland said he personally feels that dairying, more than any other industry, "must show greater alertness and ability to help solve its own problems than it has manifested.” He said he hopes “strongly" to see indications of such an attitude in the near future. The southern Democrat had warm words of praise for the Eisenhower administration’s secretary Ezra Taft Benson's approach to the agriculture problem “has been ’courageous and essentially non-partisan” and that he had "rendered very great service to American agriculture?' Holland added: "The sooner we all realise that agricultural problems are economic problems of great national importance and that they may never be dealt with upon any narrow partisan basis, the better it will be for American agriculture and for the American people." OPENS DOOR FOR (Continued from Rage One) request "serious" consideration. Nehru earlier assured Hammarskjold of his cooperation in connection ' with the proposed meeting and the secretary general made plans -to fly via New Delhi so he could confer with the Indian leader. Also aiding in attempting to arrange the talks with Chou were the UN chief’s • nephew. Peder Hammarskjold?' who is Swedish charge d'affaires in Peiping, and the British and Indian representatives in the Communist capital. Meanwhile, the heads of the U.S. and British UN delegations advised delegates to adopt a “handsoff” policy toward Hammarskjold's “mission to Peiping” and allow him a free hand for his projected meeting. Both Henry Cabot Lodge Jr., and British minister of state Anthony Nutting are convinced that “patience” is called for at this delicate stage of the situation.

Oppose Adding Any More Toll Roads In State Capehart-Jenner Faction Opposes Craig's Program INDIANAPOLIS (INS) — Oppoand |dvocacy of free roads with a hike in the' gasoline tax appeared today to be a major plank in the platform of CapehartJenner Republican faction for the 1955 general assembly* This proposal was voiced in speeches at a conference of anti* Craig leaders by Lieut. Oov. Harold W. Handley and Senate President Pro Tem John W. Van Ness. While Capehart-Jenner chieftains applauded, Handley said pay roads should never “be substituted for free state highways and for farm-to-market secondary roads.". Senator William E. Jenner attended the meeting, former Governor'“Ralph F. Gates was chairman and Senator Homer E. Capehart arrived at the end of the session. fl An under-cover suggestion by Gates, following the meeting, was that a bill be introduced early in the legislative session requiring specific legislative indorsement of any toll road project, and slashing salaries of toll road commission members and various officials of that organization, including lawyers and press agents. Other proposals of the faction were: A slash in the $66 million biennials allowance proposed by the state budget committee. Dual lanes on the key highways of the state, ■,■ ■ ' / Widening of the roads leading to "killer bridges.” Construction of a state office building, to be financed from the ! general fund balance. Additional afd for contruction of schools. Permitting cities and towns to remedy their financial breakdown. Improvement of state hospital and penal institutions. Increasing the state police force. The meeting had been billed as a quiet protest session, but William Oberlin, Marshall county assessor, attacked Governor George N. Craig savagely. He said: ‘.“Many of the 1954 election losses can be charged to the high handed and autocratic conduct of the present goveiW and his confederates. The Republican loss of the eighth congressional district might have been due to the ouster by Craig of Fred Malotte as district chairman last May. « “In my own district, the third, the biggest obstacle Republican eongressman Shephard Crumpacker had to overcome was resentment in the main streets against Craig.” Included in others present were: Secretary of state Crawford F. Parker, treasurer of state John Peters, attorney general Edwin K. Steers, superintendent of public instruction Wilbur Young; Malette7 Mrs. Mabel Fraser,, former state vice-chairman; Bruce Kixmiller, former seventh district chairman; Kenneth Osborn, former fourth district chairman: Mrs. Martha Whitehead, tenth district vice-chairman and former state vice-chairman, and Mrs. Mary Wedding. Liberty publisher and former Union county vice-chair-man. < Thus it appears that the ’1955 general assembly will be a tempestous affair.

STATE DEMANDS (Continued from Pago One) describe. was the true relationship between the defendant and his wife? Why would a brother ask that ominous question unless the brother committed this vicious, brutal and foul act.” The defendant, who sobbed as his wife’s last letter saying “all is well” was read to the Jury, was composed as the prosecutor put the finishing touches to its attempt to win a conviction. Whenever hia murdered wife’s name was mentioned he shut his eyes. • The final summations began minutes after both) sides rested mid-way in the ninth week of the first degree murder trial. Judge Edward Blythin, who quickly disposed of defense motions to throw out the first degree murder indictment and a motion to direct a verdict of acquittal from the jury, said he will charge the panel at 9:15 a.m. Friday. Each side was given five hours for final argument and prosecutor
