John's, an ex-convict at the time appealed the decision, charging error in overruling his motion to suppress certain evidence. The objectio nwas to evidence obtained by a search of Johns’ hotel room. A policeman chasing a car after the robbery lost it. hut noted skid marks and found a parked car resembling that used by the bandit, with its engine hot. The car had been rented to Johns. An officer went to his hotel room, and searched 4t, without a warant, finding the holdup victim's wallet hidden behind a radiator, and his money in a drawer. A gun also was found.

The amount is 81,109,000,000 less than President Elsenhower asked. The committee slashed one billion dollars from the three billion dollar military aid request and 109 millions from proposed economic aid. s Although defense Secretary Charles. E. Wilson termed the cut "a great Mistake" and other* administration sources expressed keen disappointment, Indications are that the reduction will be approved by the house. There is a possibility the program might be slashed still further. Despite the cut, the bill authorizes 8800 million more than congress furnished last year.

tlon at its Muncie convention last : week, charging use of prisoners j on the 1280,000 orientatlop and reception building was illegal. The council announced intentions to present the charge to the state < building trades council in July. O’Brien said: “I believe the carpenters are dbn fusing an agreement on work outside prison walls and a state < law which requires bids on all materials purchased in amounts over |SOO. I know of no law < which disputes our right to build behind prison walls.” The correction chairman added that the building project to which the union objected had been started in the Democratic administration of former governor Henry Schricker and was just now nearing completion. Republicans Plan District Dinners Six Candidates For Governor Will Speak INDIANAPOLIS (INS J—The Republican state committee today planned dinners in all 11 congressional districts at which all six. candidates for the OOP gubernatorial bid will be assigned equal time to present their cases. State Chairman Alvin C. Cast will act as moderator and the state committee will pick up the dinner checks. Tfie district chairi man will act as host. Frank T. Mlllis, state commissioner of revenue, spoke at a separate meeting at Jasper Tuesday 1 night at which he denounced Dem- « ocratic criticism of state finances. He said: “By the end of this year, the Republican administration will have distributed some |62 million more to cities and towns for the benefit of schools and teacher pay than was distributed in the previous four years under the Democrats. “Some of the Democrats have complained that we have not built up a huge sterile surplus in the state treasury. But there is no point in collecting taxes merely to display a showy surplus. The tax money should be regarded as a, tool to be used for the improve-! ment of conditions tn the state. . The increased support given to local units of government by the present Republican administration has been of paramount importance to every community of Indiana.” Six districts already have set dates for their “Delegates, meet the»<na>t governor" meetings. These are: first district, June 1; second, June 13; fourth, June 12; seventh, June 2; Ighth, June 15, and tenth, June 14. In addition, June 4 has been
