Wickard And Madden Speak At CIO Meet * Broken Promises Os Administration Cited INDIANAPOLIS (INS) — Claude Wickard, frontrunner for the Indiana Democratic senatorial nomination, told the Indiana CIO convention today that factory workers and farmers are in the same boat and no one will reach shore until everyone rows together. Rep. Ray Madden, Lake county Democrat, spoke at Monday’s opening session and Kai cl the Eisenhower administration has “completely broken every promise made to labor and the farmer in 1952.” The Gary lawmaker’s appearance followed a business session in which Dallas Sells and other incumbent officers were renamed to their jobs until the state’s AFL and CIO merge this fall. Madden, who blasted the administration as devoted to big business, was cited by Wickard along with Indiana’s other Democratic congressman, Rep. Winfield Denton, of Evansville, as two men who realize, the problems, just as the hopes for food, home and peace, are the same for farmers as they are for workers. Wickard said the average farmer does not have two Cadillacs in every barn and a mink coat in every hall closet anymore than the average Worker is living in the lap of luxury. The former secretary of agriculture charged the man now in that job, Ezra Taft Benson, has, on various occasions, told labor that farmers are overpaid and farmers that labor has it soft. Said Wickard: "If he believes It was soft at New Castle and . Hagerstown, or Westinghouse and P. R. Malolry, he hasn’t been around.” Wickard endorsed guaranteed annual wage; blasted right to work proposals; condemned the current tax law as against the small man, farmer and worker; called for broader medical insurance coverage; urged federal aid to education, and condemned those now in power who have attempted to break unions and have nearly put “The American farmer flat on his back.” First President Os Egypt To Be Freed Mohammed Naguib To Be Freed In July CAIRO (INS) — Maj. Gen. Mohammed Naguib, post - revolutionary premier and first president of the Egyptian republic, who has been held under house arrest for 16 months, will be freed by July. A government source told International News Service today that Naguib would by midsummer be "free to come and go as he pleases" The former premier has been under what the government officially describes as “house-confine-ment” since November, 1954. when he was accused of participating in a plot to Assassinate his successor Lt. Col. Gamal Abdel Nasser. Naguib was president at the time, having been promoted by the revolutionary council from premier to the largely ceremonial job to make way for Nasser. In a weekend interview in the London Observer, Nasser announced that all persons detained for political reasons would be released in July when the new Egyptian constitution becomes effective. Nasser later told Egyptian reporters that the total of political arrests was about 1,200, The government source told I. N. S.. however, that persons imprisoned as Communists would not be included in the government amnesty. The number of Communists in jail—never has -been revealed officially but reliable estimates place the number at about 1,000. Naguib, who is 55 and was fondly known as "papa” during the height of his post-revolutionary popularity, has been confined in his palatial country home at El Marg, 25 miles from Cairo. His wife and children live with him. Armed guards patrol the 209acre estate 24 hours a day. No visitors are allowed. The Naguib farm was confiscated by the government from Zeinar Nahass, wife of the Egyptian premier under King Farouk who was tried for corruption by the revolutionary cbmmand court. < • Cedar Lake Seminary Is Damaged By Fire CEDAR LAKE, Ind.

Radioactive Rain Falling On Japan TOKYO (INS)—Radioactive rain continued to fall in Japan today presumably as a result of Soviet Russia’s nuclear test last week. “Hot” rain was reported from Sendai, In the north and Shiba in , central Japan, ( Treasurer Problem Up To County Board State Board Fails To Act On Issue INDIANAPOLIS (INS) —The Indiana election board tailed to act in the burning issue of countytreasurer eligibility and left the problem up to the individual county election boards. Forty-three treasurers who already had served a term and Were reelected in 1952 when the state constitutional amendment lengthening their tenure from two to four years -was adopted theoretically are affected. The law specified that Incumbent treasurers could serve eight out of 12 years, which made the provision retroactive. The Indiana county treasurers association has argued that the incumbent, reelected treasurers of 1952 are eligible to one more term. A court decision to that effect was cbtained in Vanderburgh probate court ’ At Monday’s meeting of the state election board, a discussion of theVanderburgh case and of a memorandum from attroney general Edwin K. Steers took place. The Steers memo was a digest of a 1952 ruling by former attorney general J. Emmett MtManamon, a Democrat, which held that the 43 treasurers would not be eligible to run. Ewing Emison, of Vincennes, a Republican member of the board, proposed the attorney general’s memo be sent to county officials. Thomas J. Faulconer 111, of Indianapolis. the only Democrat on the three-member board, objected. Wilbur Dassel, attorney for Jbe Indiana county treasurer association, proposed that it the attorney general’s memo were sent out, it should be accompanied with the Vanderburgh court ruling, which. Steers has epined is too recent te permit a supreme court decision before "Elections. Horace M. Coats, executive secretary .to Governor George N. ; Craig, who was on a speaking trip, expressed opposition to mailing put the court ruling aladV - End result, was that the issue reverted to couhty election boards, some of whom already have acted upon the question.

NIPSCO Opposes New Gas Pipeline Fight Looms Before State Commission HAMMOND, Ind. (INS) — A blistering fight before the Indiana public service commission over a petition filed by Midwestern Gas Transmission company, of Houston, Tex., was anticipated today after Northern Indiana Public Service company served notice of opposition. Dean H» Mitchell, president of NIPSCO declared that Midwestern “seeks to serve gas only to the United States Steel Corporation in Gary. This is not in the public interest since separating out a large industrial customer would be taking off the cream of the gas ~>ad and materially increase the unit price of gas to the remaining residential and commercial customers. “We will oppose Midwestern in its attempt to unduly burden the residential and commercial customers in our area.” Mitchell asserted: “We hdld out to serve all who come — residential, commercial, and industrial customers and our suppliers have informed us that we will have an ample supply of gas to do so.” * The petition filed by Midwestern had named NIPSCO as respondent, in asking to serve the one Indians customer —U. S. Steel. The petition also asked permission to cross the state in the course of laying a 2,000t-mlle natural gas pipeline from Emerson, Manitoba, Canada, to Portland. Tenn. Mitchell noted that: “The policy of raiding a utility’s market has been twice condemned by the supreme court of the United States."
