The Welcome Wagon of which Mrs. Kathryn Tyndall is the Decatur hostess has visited more than <7,000 Indiana homes in the last year, according to figures compiled by the state organisation. The visitation organisation is sponsored by two thousand Hoosier businessmen in ninetyseven Indiana cities. The Welcome Wagon in each city also has a permanent social and civic organisation, which meets regularly the year around. There are some five thousand Indiana members of local groups. • . 0 o Cognisant of the fact that after seven years of operation, the Decatur zoning ordinance needs some repairs, members of the Plan Commission are making plans to recommend some changes to the Council soon. The Commission met with Col. Lawrence Sheridan, author of the Decatur ordinance and expert on city planning, yesterday to begin plans for revamping the present law. The Commission members includes Kenneth Hirschy, president; Charles Kent, D. T. Dorwin, Robert Gay, Mayor Robert Cole, Councilman Lawrence Kohne and city engineer Ralph Roop. We are sure that from the meetings will come an ordinance reflecting the progress of our city. ’ 0 0 _ Annual drive for funds for the Cancer society starts April 2 and extends throughout the month. Miss Joan Wemhoff, Decatur, president of the Adams county Cancer society has issued an appeal to all citizens to assist in the drive to rid the nation- of this dangerous killer. The society’s fund drive in Decatur is covered **by the Community fund. 1 Cannisters however are placed in numerous business establishments for those who wish to contribute separately to the fund.

THE BETRAYAL-— Following the Last Supper, Jesus led His disciples to the garden of Gethsemane. Thrice, while they slept, Jesus prayed, saying, “O my Father, if this cup may not pass away from me, except that I drink it, thy will be done.” Waking the disciples, He told them, “Rise, let us be going: behold, he is at hand that doth betray me.” As He spoke, Judas Iscariot, who had plotted against Him for 30 pieces of silver, appeared with “a great multitude with swords and staves, from the chief priests and elders of the people. Now he that betrayed Him gave them a sign, saying, Whomsoever shall I kiss, that same is He: hold him fast.” As Judas kissed Him, Jesus was seized and led away to the palace of Caiaphas, the high priest, where the scribes and elders were assembled hear myttYickecAc a erai net Him.

Study Possible Attempt On Life Os Eisenhower Three Stricken On Special Train Later Used By Eisenhower WHITE SULPHUR SPRINGS. W Va. (INS) —The secret service awaited today laboratory analysis of several bottles o? ginger ale to determine whether three upset stomachs signalled a possible attempt on President Eisenhower's life. Three persons were stricken aftThursday aboard the special railThursday aboard the special rail? road car which Mr. Elsenhower later used on his trip to White Sulphur Spring? lor his talks with the Canadian and Mexican chiefs of state. Two still are hospitalized. The third has recovered. The ginger ale was drunk in Huntington, W. Va„ aboard the plush special car maintained for Walter J. Tuohy, president of the Chesapeake and Ohio railroad. The car was taken the same night to Washington for Mr. Eisenhower’s Sunday night trip to his meeting with prime minister Louis S. St. Laurent of Canada and president Adolfo Ruiz Cortines of Mexico. \ ■ . The same three persons who drank the ginger ale earlier had eaten a pork chop dinner together. That meal could have been the source of the trouble. The railroad declined to identify at their"request the persons Involved. But the incident touched off a wave of excitement in White Sulphur Springs, where the usual cordon of secret servicemen was guarding the President. Secret service chief U. E. Baughman said he was making a routine investigation of the possibility that the ginger ale might have been poisoned,. _____ White House news secretary James C. Hagerty was bombarded with questions about the incident. A railroad spokesman called a special news conference to issue a statement. The three stricken persons included a "mechanical service” employe of the railroad and two women relatives of another employe. The employe is in a hospital in Washington and one of the women in Huntington. The car had been undergoing a routine inspection in the C & Oi at Huntington. The women and; three other relatives of the -em-‘ ploye, including two U-year-oH, boys, had gone aboard to bid him . goodbye before his departure forj Washington. I The ginger ale came from the supply maintained aboard the car, which includes a complete kitchen. The empty bottles were thrown overboard en route to Washington. Those who drank it complained ’ of its unpleasant taste. Three bottles of the soft drink; and samples of the ice aboard the; car were sent to a Baltimore lab-1 oratory, which found nothing wrong. The West Virginia state hygiene laboratories at Charleston were scheduled to complete an examination today of eight other bottles. Mr. Eisenhower normally uses his own special car, the Ferdinand

Magellan, on, the rare occasions when he travels by rail. But the Ferdinand Magellan wasn’t used this time because the heavy armor which protects its underslde would have made it necessary to make a special inspection of bridges along the route. The “ginger ale” car was given a complete security chebk before it was placed in use and all food and soft drink supplies were removed and replaced before Mr. Eisenhower went aboard. Whatever the outcome of the laboratory test, the incident served to dramatize the care the secret service takes to guard the Presi-'' dent from any possible attempt on
