REPORT IRVIN <Cont In ued from Page One) A police alert was immediately gut out in the area. The driver told police he picked up two men hitchhiking on a back rad. drove them through Sidney to the north edge or town and let them out. He said one of Htte men asked him how far it was to Lima before departing. The driver then went to nearby Piqua, where he spotted Irvin's picture in a newspaper, and immediately informed police that it was the same man to whom he had given a ride. Piqua authorities said it seem ed odd "tor the hitchhikers were using a back road” whereas most persons seeking a ride will stick to main highways. An all-points alert was sent out for the killer and a search was begun for a green car in which the man believed to be Irvin and his companion were traveling earlier.

Russia Returning Base To Finland Naval Base Being Returned By Reds HELSINKI (INS) — The Soviet Union begins today to hand back to Finland the Russian naval base at Porkkala which she has held for more than 11 years. The return qf the area just west of Helsinki will be completed within six days. The (Russians agreed to withdraw last September when the Finnish president and premier were in Moscow on a good-will tour. * Russian and Finnish soldiers have been working together tearing down the double row of frontier posts around the 25-mile perimeter to make the 306-square mile base ready for inspection by Finnish officials on Monday. For a few more days, the tommygun carrying sentries will guard the road and rail barriers and entry will be prohibited. About 7,000 Finnish farmers, fishermen and tradesmen are waiting anxiously to visit their former homes. They were evacuated within 10 days of the sighing of Sept. 19, 1944, armistice which provided for the leasing of the land and waters to Russia. ( Douglas Fighting Natural Gas Bill Prepares Four-Day Speech For Senate WASHINGTON (INS) — Sen. Paul Douglas (Dill.) said today he is ready to deliver a senate speech lasting four days to em< phasixe his opposition to a controversial natural gas price bill. Douglas, disclosing he has been preparing six months for the address, announced he would give the senate "a thorough analysis” of the legislation, showing that it is against the public interest. "But,'’ he told Hewsmen, ‘Tro not trying to talk the bill to death. I want the public to understand the issues. It is a very complicated — yet simple — issue, so I decided to treat it adequately.” Douglas, among a group of Republicans and Democrats fighting the measure, said he has already prepared a 130-page speech, which he will launch this afternoon. On the assumption the senate ad journs for the weekend, Douglas said he would resume the address Monday and continue perhaps through Wednesday. Since other opponents of the bill, Including Sen. Wayne Morse (DOre.) are still to be heard. Douglas said he doubted that the senate would begin voting on the measure next week. Meanwhile, Douglas charged that the gas bill is ”a gigantic give-away” and repeated his charge that its enactment "would gouge the consumers of this country of 600 to 900 million dollars a year.” T’Griw 'Tr'SCwvJIIJ .F®f Anyone Under 20 INDIANAPOLIS (INS) —Dr Bertram E- Groesbeck, director of the Indiana state board of health, today announced that polio vaccine may be obtained by anyone in the state under 20 year old.

High Price Support Backed By Wickard First Major Speech By Senate Candidate INDIANPOLIS (INS) — Claude R. Wickard urged high price supports for farm products in the first major speech for his campaign for the Democratic senatorial nomination Thursday. Wickard. in a speech before' the convention of the Indiana Farmers' Union in Indianapolis, said: "We need a farm program that will restore confidence right now. Why continue with a program like the sliding scale? Low price supports have no place in agriculture today. With the sliding scale, when the farmer most needs confidence in his prices, he gets the least. We need support prices at a high enough level to get us out of the mess we’re In now and keep us out.” 1 Wickard also warned that "the farm depression can trigger a national depression a (lot-master than many people realise because modern farming is much more deeply involved in our economy than in the Thirties.” The speaker accused "big business and tabor unions” of setting prices and contended that fanners cannot exist under a free economy when no one else is under it. Pilots Avoid Crash Os Two Airliners ' Quick Thinking Os Pilots Is Praised CLEVELAND (INS) — Officials of Capital and United Airlines reported today that quick thinking and rapid maneuvering by pilots for each airline averted a possible collision at Cleveland Hopkins airport of two planes carrying 92 passengers. C. J. Miller, district sales manager for Capital airlines, and Gordon Logan, operations manager for United, said the two planes —a Capital Viscount and a United DC-6 — were waiting to land during a snowfall late Thursday night when it appeared that the two .ships would collide. Capt. C. S. Bablon. pilot of, the Viscount, and Capt. A. R. Kiddie, pilot of the DC-6, swerved tha(r planes quickly in opposition directions, alarming the passengers and throwing luggage from the racks above thA MtatK — — Miller said that as the Viscount made the sudden climb, the electrical system went out of service and the plane circled the air (or more than a half hour before landing. Both planes landed safely, however. Passengers in the DC-6 were lifted from their seats when Capt. Kidder dipped the plane suddenly, but all escaped injury because they had their safety belts fastened.

The Capital plane was travelling from Washington to Detroit and the DC-6 was on a flight from New York to Los Angeles. - An official of the civil aeronautics administration said the plane* apparently crossed paths accidentally and added that the snowfall probably made the lights deceiving. The near-crash came to light when a passenger, John E. Ryan of Denver, reported that the -two planes were close enough to be hit by a thrown baseball.

We’ve said it before, and well say it again: If you can afford any new car, you can afford a Buick — and the sales figures make the proof of that stronger and stronger. Just ask yourself: which cars would normally be in the top 3 of America’s best sellers? The well-known smaller cars—naturally. But which cars are in that Big 3?
