There is still a small ray of hope in the hearts ot those close to the Westinghouse controversy. The strike, now more than twenty weeks old, already has done irreparable damage to thousands. Many workmen will have to struggle tor several years to gat back even tinanclally, some will never live to see their families out ot debt For years newspaper gossip columnists who profess to "know everything” have been trying to marry oft Margaret Truman tosome Governor, Senator or Presl- ~ dential candidate. Then all of a sudden, when she gets good and ready, she ups and plans to marry just an ordinary newspaperman. Our bet is they will be happy. No doubt a few moronic Peg-ler-brained writers will attempt to spoil it We’d guess that no one will get much credit writing anything but decency about this fine young American couple. 0 0»— Charley Callahan, sort of a high powered office boy in the Notre Dame athletic department for a good many years found himself on the other end of a problem when his school sponsored the N.C.A.A. division play-offs at Fort Wayne this week. Callahan’s problem always has been to get tickets for some influential person for a Notre Dame football game. This week, his problem was to get people to attend’his tournament Fewer than 2,000 basketball tans were present The games were good, bat the crowd was slim.

Perhaps Mr. Ford did not lie in his testimony when be said no force ' or coercion was used. He may interpret the words "force” and •'coercion” a little differently. Be that as it is. The tact remains that it is perfectly alright, from the G.O.P. viewpoint for big busi- ■ ness to raise funds for the Republicans, but it is shocking, immoral and indecent for a laboring

man to contribute a dollar a month to the Democrats. With such a line of thinking, is it any wonder that Republicans have such a hard time trying to win elections? 0 o—— The United States Senate farce continues. The probe of lobbyist activities in the Senate is going along at a snail’s pace and indications are that it will soon die a natural death. Press association reporters seem to have joined the unholy group and little is written of the progress. We still think every Senator is guilty unless he stands up and demands a thorough probe. What can we do? We can start right here in Indiana and defeat Sen. Capehart and retire every present Congressman. Both parties can clean up the mess, if we demand it now, because both parties still have because both parties still have the primary elections and the state conventions. That’s exactly what we would do in private business. If something wgs wrong and we were losing m<ffley. we'd’get rid of everyone and start over! No red blooded American can read Maxwell C. Raddock’s “Portrait of An American Labor Leader — William L, Hutcheson” without thrilling at the greatness of the man. Os course all Americans did not agree with the late Mr. Hutcheson, politically; many did not agree with his labor tactics; some did not like him personally, but not a single person in the nation ever said they did not respect him. Enough about Bill Hutcheson. Xba.boek ip » beautifully written, truthful story about the man; his organisation; his ideals. Author Raddock has covered his subject, we believe better than any biographer of a similar subject, in recent years. The story is of unusual interest to Hoosiers -because laborman Hutcheson spent much of his life in Indianapolis and reared his family in the Hoosier Capitol. Mr. Raddock knew the subject personally both in his profession and in his private life. It is a great story of a great man.

CHAPTER TWENTY-THREE THERE was alcohol among bottles and jars on a shelf, and Lora turned the old woman quickly over on her stomach, pulled the cover# up to her waist and pushed her nightgown so tfiat her thin back lay bare. If there was one thing Doc had taught her how to do well, it was to give a back rub to a bedridden patient. She went vigorously to work, rubbing and kneading with palms and strong fingers, seeking out nerve centers, relaxing knotted muscles. The stiffness went gradually out of her patient, gradually the old woman relaxed and resisted LorifS hands no longer. “You’re going to feel wonderful now,” Lora said. “You’re even going to stop being indignant with me for helping you.” When she had completed her ministrations and had her patient covered and warm again, she hurried to the kitchen for a basin of warm water, winked at the alarmed Ellie, and returned to wash Mrs. Tyler’s face and hands and comb her thin, snarled hair. Through it all. the old woman lay with her eyes tightly closed. Weak, helpless, with her impotent anger fading in spite of herself. Lora went to the window. “My father believed tn fresh air,” she said as she opened the shutters. Mrs. Tyler drew a deep lungful of cold fresh air and shuddered through her entire being. “Now what do you plan, may I ask ?" she demanded fiercely of her tormentor. Lora laughed out loud. “There!. I knew I’d have you feeling better. You sound practically like yourself. Would you like to sit up in bed for a while and read? Here’s your Bible on the table and I’ll fix the lamp for you You may have your bell back now and Hl return to my own work.” “Work?” Mrs. Tyler echoed. “What work?” Lora paused in the bedroom door. “Right now I’m taking that dreadful picture of a dead bird off the dining room wal. I’m sure it is giving us al! indigestion." Mrs. Tyler pulled herself up in bed. 1 will not have that picture touched! Do you hear me? That painting—" Lora put her hands saucily on her hips. “How can you stop me if you stay tied to your bed?" She whirled out of the room and returned to her task, tingling

from the encounter. She set a newspaper on a chair and climbed up to take the picture from the wall. She was holding the thing in her hands when Jemmy came running in, just home from school. Usually he went straight through the house and around to the yard’ where Hamlin had a home in the stable. But when he saw the dining room door ajar and Lora balancing bn a chair with the picture in her hands, he came in to find out what she was doing. “Hello, Jemmy," Lora held up the picture for him to see. "This is not going to stare at us any more while we’re eating,” she told him. His eyes widened. “What will Grandma say ?” "She has already said it Oh, dear—there’s a dark blotch on the wall where the picture has hung for so long. We’ll have to find something right away to cover it. Have you any ideas, Jemmy?” “We could take a picture from somewhere else,” he suggested. “Maybe the one of the Parthenon from the library. But then 1 suppose that would leave a spot on the wall there. Or the Three Graces one from my room. I'm awfully tired of that. Or—Lora, I know! There’s a lot of old stuff in the attic. Pictures, too, I think. We could go up and Arid something.” Jemmy said, "1 know a good one that Morgah Le Fay painted.” He scuffed through the dusty pile, finally calling out, “There!” He brought out a garden scene, with a stiff little girl in flounced skirts daintily sniffing a spray of lilac. ‘There! This is the one Aunt Morgan did. That’s my mother in the garden. Mama liked it. She used to have it hanging in the downstairs hall. Let’s put this one up, Lorie.” Lora regarded the picture with some doubt. True, it was bright and gay, and if the hand which painted it had been less than expert, it was still preferable to the picture of dead game. But she did not want to hang a picture of Virginia. even when It so little resembled Virginia, where they must all look at it every day. Especially since that picture had been painted by het sister Morgan. But how was she to explain the matter diplomatically to Jemmy ? He was already lugging it 'toward the stairs, however. "T Hke this one. Let’s go down, Lorie. It is cold.” She started after him uncertain-
Asserts Tearing-up Theory All Wrong Child Psychiatrist Speaks At Capital INDIANAPOLIS (INS)—A nationally known psychiatrist beUeves that the theory of letting children tear up things as an outlet for disturbed feelings is not only hard on property — but wrong tor trfe child. Qr. Raymond W. Waggoner, director of the University of Michigan's neuropsychiatric institute and chairman of its department of psychiatry since 1937, is in J Indianapolis for two lectures. Tonight he speaks at a public meeting sponsored by the Marion county association tor mental health in the state board of health auditorium. He told members and guests of the Indianapolis medical society Tuesday night, that work at the University of Michigan in treatment of mentally disturbed children has convinced him such children should commit destruction. He said such action has no therapeutic value and only leads the child to greater destruction. Dr. Waggoner heads a newly opened children’s hospital at Ann Arbor, Mich., specially designed to prevent its mentally disturbed patients from tearing up anything. The $2.2 million hospital houses 75 young patients. Juvenile killers and arsonists have been among those treated at the center. Secretary Dulles Flies To Saigon Elaborate Security Precautions Taken SAIGON (INS) — Secretary of state John Foster Dulles flew into Saigon today for talks with Vietnamese Premier Ngo Dinh Diem. Tommygun carrying security squads guarded the airport and police took unprecedented precautions to guard the four-mile route into the city. At the airport, Dulles read a prepared statements which said in part: “In the eventful year since my last visit, the Vietnamese people . . have made striking progress towards a consolidation of a strong and free country." The Communist North Vietnam news agency reported that 30,000 persons paraded in the streets of Hanoi, protesting the American secretary's visit in Saigon. .Dulles arrived for his one-day visit from Bangkok. He was greeted by the western Big Three andjassadors and the Vietnamese foreign minister.
ly, wishing now that she had never tampered with the picture until she had another ready.to take its place. “Os course your mother liked the picture, because Morgan was her sister. But we can’t expect your father to like it as much when it isn’t a very good painting You know how he—well, he doesn’t exactly approve of your Aunt Morgan.’’ "Oh, yes. he does," Jemmy said, resting the frame on the door near the trap door. "He likes her a lot. really. Else why would he be kissing her the way he did that day in the woods? Bring your candle for the stairs, Lorie.” She followed him, stricken. This was just talk from a small boy Jemmy had a vivid imagination at times and didn’t always distinguish between truth and fantasy But she had to ask the question that came to her tongue. “When did this happen, Jemmy? How long ago?” He answered her guilelessly “Oh, it way last year—no. before that- Before my mother—” H r broke off and started down the steep flight ahead of her. still carrying the picture. She went after him. blowing out the candle as she reached the bottom step, and closed the door carefully behind her.

Says Big Business Deluding Fanners Wickard Speaks At Democratic Rally SULLIVAN. Ind. (INS) .*- Republican leaders of big business have financed a half-mUlion-dollar advertising campaign to delude farmers, according to former secretary of agriculture Claude (R, Wickard, who spoke at a Democratic rally in Sullivan Tuesday night. Discusslng the source of the finance, Wickard, a candidate for the Democratic senatorial nomination, said: “The money came from big business—the oil and gas people, the power company officials, and investors, the monopoly boys who want to squeeze out competition and destroy the free and competitive enterprise system — not preserve it as they would have you believe.” Wickard said the aims of the campaign are: 1. To keep members of congress from drifting away from the administration’s farm program, which is hitched to the idea of flexible supports instead of rigid percentages of parity. 2. To take the heat off secretary of agriculture Ezra Benson who has borne the brunt of farm reaction against falling prices. Wickard added: ....— — “Thia campaign is based on the theory that if you say something often enough, people will tend to accept it, even though it has no factual basis. It is the same theory advanced by Adolph Hitler in his book ‘Mein Kampf.’ It 4s the real basis for brain washing used by the Communists to get people to say something that the Communists want them to say despite its falsehood. It is often used as a means of distracting attention from weakness and mistakes.” Trade in a Good Town Decatur
