Erroneous Report On Republic Fund •Wrong Statements Attributed To Fund WASHINGTON (UP) — The United Press reported erroneously Thursday that a 1955 report by the Fund for the Republic criticised congreesional Investigators for branding the Communist party part of an International conspiracy. The 1955 report by the fund actually stated: “A political party in this country has been identified with the ‘enemy.* Thoae associated with this party have therefore come under suspicion as an imminent danger to the state. In view of the weapons now available and of the examples of subversion that other countries have offered, the danger has seemed great though often mysterious and Intangible."
The fund’s report was issued May 31, 1955. On Dec. 8. 1955, chairman Francis E. Walter (D-Pa.) issued a statement reporting that his house committee on un-American activities was investigating activities of the fund. Walter's statement said in part: "The shocking pronouncements on the Communist party by the Fund for the Republic have already disturbed millions of Americans who have long realised that the Communists themselves seek to disarm the unwary by terming the Communist conspiracy a ‘political party’." The United Press regrets attributing to the fund report statements made by Walter. The fund’s 1955 report said that the "range of suspected persons has been enormously extended by resort to guilt by association." "The evidence offered to show that a man is a danger to American institutions has often been facically remote. The treatment accorded suspected persons in congressional investigations and administrative hearings has not always been that contemplated by the sixth amendment. “A kind of continuous propaganda and social pressure has been kept up that has tended to suppress conscientious non-conformity. Political advantage has accrued from claiming that others were indifferent tt> the threat of communism. The result has been that governmental officers, university presidents, and ordinary citizens have felt It necessary to exhibit inordinate anxiety on this score." 200 SICK OF (CoW<l"“rd Croat Hut, O»e> treated at their homes for the food poisoning, called “staphylococcal."

GOP Worried Over Holding TV Audience Leaders Meeting To Discuss Plans For August Convention WASHINGTON (UP) — About 40 Republican leaders today tackled the question of how to hold a national television audience for their party convention when there is little doubt about the outcome. With no word in sight from the still-hospitalized President Eisenhower, the GOP leaders were going ahead on the assumption that the party will renominate him and Vice President Richard M. Nixon. They had hoped for a message from him. Today s session involved the na- . tlpnal convention arrangements committee, which was assembled to complete plans for the 1956 party conclave opening at San Francisco Aug. 20. One question to be discussed was whether to shorten the convention from four days to three. Republicans have been expecting their convention to provide much less drama than that in 1952 when Mr. Eisenhower’s supporters were locked in a struggle with those of the late Sen. Robert A. Taft. The committee also expected to talk about ways of keeping the speech-making lively and of avoiding time-consuming roll calls of individual state delegates. It also was scheduled to select convention officials such as the temporary chairman, permanent chairman and keynote speaker. House GOP leader Joseph W. Martin was slated for the permanent chairmanship. Senate Republican leader William F. Knowland was understood to be among those being considered for temporary chairman. A conference of Democratic leaders was held here Thursday to discuss post-convention campaign plans. National chairman Paul M. Butler and the headquarters staff met with the campaign managers for Adlai E. Stevenson, Sen. Estes Kefauver and Gov. Averell Harriman, the active candidates for the presidential nomination. AH of them agreed that -they prefer a “whistle stop" type of campaign -for the presidential nominee next autumn. Their attitude contrasted with that of the Republicans. Even before Mr. Elsenhower’s heart attack last fall, the GOP was planning to rely more on television campaigning and less on barnstorming than in past years. Butler also reported that the Democrats want to spend upwards of $2 million for radio and television time —a figure in line with the Republican budget for radio and TV. A.—...

Rules Red Workers May Obtain Benefits Communist Party Employes Eligible WASHINGTON (UP) — A social security administration official ruled today that a person may not be denied social security benefits because he worked for the American Communist party. • The ruling was handed down by Peter J. Hoegen, a referee of the social security administration's appeals council. The ruling was made in cases involving seven Communist party employes whose eligibility for social security benefits had been challenged. The bureau of old age and survivors insurance held last year that the Communist party is an arm of a foreign government. It said service performed for the party was service performed in the employ of, a foreign government. Therefore, it said, such employment could not be used as a basis for payment of social security benefits. The social security act excludes from coverage “services performed in the employ of a foreign government.” The bureau’s decision was based on an opinion by the general counsel of the department of health, e "cation and welfare. Some ji the individuals involved asked for a review of their cases. Hoegen heard the cases in New York May 14-16. in his ruling. Hoegen said the sole question is whether an actual employe - employer relatioifship existed between the wage earners and the Soviet Union. The referee concluded the evidence was insufficient to determine "whether the Communist party, U.S.A., is a creature or instrumentality of the Soviet Union, the Russian Communist party, or the Communist International, although it is clear that it is dominated by alien elements abroad, and that it is conspiratorial in character."

The weather was blamed for the death of 14-year-old Frances Tolbert at Shoals, who took refuge from a storm in a shed and was struck by lightning, and for a *20,000 fire .which destroyed- a Warsaw sawmill during an electrical storm. Temperatures were due to reach or exceed 90 over mos( of the state today. But they will give way to more moderate readings and lower humidity Saturday, and a “fair and pleasant" weekend was in store. The 5-day forecast called for near normal temperatures through next Wednesday. Heavy rain swept southern and central Indiana. An unofficial total of 6.81 inches was reported at Linton 4n a 24-hour period ending at 8 a.m. today, and it was still raining. Newberry got 3.15 inches, Elliston 2.35. Indianapolis Southeast Side 2 inches, Terre Haute 1.65, Martinsville 1.31. Crawfordsville 1.05, Bluffton. Warsaw, Edwardsport and Shoals nearly an inch, and Columbus and Rochester about half en inch. The thunderstorms toiiowed a pattern set up more than a week ago when a series of daily down-’ pours swept the state on a widely scattered basis. The Indianapolis Airport Weather station measured only .12 of an inch. Fort Wayne got .09 and Lafayette .23. Evansville had only a trace. An 81-year-old woman was carried ftom her'home through water which surrounded her as the Linton downpour filled basements in about 500 homes with water. Two state highways nearby were blocked by surface waters and power was cut off to the city for five hours. 94 Thursday Top Thursday’s high temperatures ranged from 90 at Indianapolis and
South Bend to 94 at Fort Wayne and Lafayette. The mercury dropped generally into the, high 60s during the night except for Evansville which had 74.

Kefauver blasted Benson and “his associates in the Eisenhower cabinet” for "the reluctant manner in ti'hich the new 195,6 farm act is being administered.” The Eisenhower administration plans to provide less than half of the aid to farmers that was intended by congress, Kefauver said. He said "farmers will not get this aid if the delaying, bungling nollc>s pf the administration continue.” Kefauver called for a “crash" program to make use of farm surpluses.
