Election Board Os Indiana In Session Board Ruling Sought By Governor Craig INDIANAPOLIS (INS) — Governor George N. Craig’s campaign to place President Eisenhower’s name on Indiana’s presidential preferential ballot was the major topic at a stormy special session of the state election board at the usually-closed state house today. Governor Craig seeks a board ruling that it is not necessary for the President to send written consent to entering the race, despite a ruling to that effect by a political enemy of Craig, secretary of state Crawford F. Parker. Horace H. Coat*, executvie secretary to the governor, represented him on the board. The other Republican member is Ewing Emison, Vincennes attorney and Craig faction member. The maneuver was opposed 4*y the only Democratic board member, Thomas J. Falconer IH, -of Indianapolis. Falconer said: “I think Parker’s decision has great merit. He discussed it with me before he made it public. Certainly there should be some control over the filing of a presidential candidate. “If the candidate’s consent is not required, what would prevent the Republicans from filing anybody they chose as a Democratic candidate while the Democrats could do the same thing to the Republicans 1 It would make a farce of the primary and embarrass legitimate candidates.” Falconer also contended that Coats had no legal right to ait on the board for the governor. Commissioners Meet In Special Session County commissioners met In a special session this morning at the county court house to discuss a problem concerning the propos ed installation of flasher signals at a county road railroad crossing. The crossing is in Kirkland township hdar the Wells county line. The matter will be given further consideration at a meeting Monday morning.

R. Mallory plants in Indianapolis will be resumed Monday while the firm’s board of directors meets in New York to consider m&ving the operations. Joseph K. Cain, president of the firm, said his recommendations to the board on moving to Mallory’s other plants at Frankfort, Ind., in New York, Illinois, Alabama, and Michigan, will be based on strike conditions at the time. Federal conciliator Arthur H. Pierson in Indianapolis will be meeting at that time with Robert L. Fortner, president of local 1001, of the International Union of Electrical Workers, and Frank B. Powers, Mallory vice-president. Cain said the company has complete confidence in Powers in refusing Fortner’s request that Cain come to Indianapolis for Monday’s meeting. —,— ~ Cain also proposed the uaion be given a chance to vote on company strike-ending proposals. Supports Soil Bank Only As Temporary 1 Master Os Grange Criticizes Plans ► WASHINGTON (INS) — Nat- • ional Grange master Herschel D. ! Newsom has pledged Grange support for the administration’s pro- ■ posed soil bank only as a temporary measure to shore up farm income while a better plan is devised. He criticized the bank as a long-term proposition, saying it would '‘quickly reduce the price of supported crops” and "freeze these prices at a minimum level so long as the commodity credit corporation holds stocks of surplus commodities." Speaking for his organization’s--850,G00 dues-paying members, Newsom said the plan has value as a conservation measure “and could be made to have temporary value as a vehicle for curtailing crop production.’’ But. he continued in a statement: "Production controls . . . are a poor substitute for expanded outlets as a means of bolstering prices by balancing available supplies with effective demand.” ’ The master of the Grange asserted: "The acreage reserve portion of the administration’s soli bank plan, when used as a production control instrument, should be relied upon only as a tempor- ■■ ary expedient. — - - "It should be used to ‘buy’ a year's time —two years at the most — to allow sounder market expansion devices to be implemented. The Grange will support it on that basis.” However, he said, “The Grange Insits that compliance with any soil bank program should be vol untary, and not mandatory, for farmers.”

Indiana Wage Above National Average Factory Worker In State Paid Better. BIXMJMINGTON, Ind. (INS) — The typical Indiana factory worker makes 82.04 an hour, compared to a national average oft only |1.87,« according to a survey made by the Indiana University school of business. This average wage ranks ahead of the average in 40 other states. The report also said; "In general, union - management relations |n Indiana are excellent. The number of strikes and lost time because of strikes are much Tower in this state than In other mid-western states. About 94 per cent of all Indiana collective bargaining agreements provide for arbitration of disputes involving union - management contracts.” Total jobless compensation claims and benefit payments dropped considerably In 1955 over 1954. Benefits have been increased to workers temporarily out gs a job. Indiana union membership now totals about 391,000, but will jump 20 to 25 per cent by 1970, according to the survey. —-■' Local Authorities Alerted For Irvin Local police were drawn into the four-state search for Leslie Irvin, confessed kHler of six persons who escaped from the Gibson county jail at Princeton, shortly before he was to be transfered to the state prison for executionCity, county and state police were alerted Friday evening that the killer had been reported seen in Kendallville.
