The man who killed three persons because he doesn't like people has as good • reason for murder as we have ever heard. o O'Service is as important as the reputation of the manufacturer. If you do your Christmas shopping in Decatur you can be sure of service. ——O i ' o-— There are a lot of ways of raising money but New York City, which has collected over ten million dollars in traffic fines in the first 10 months of this year, has one that doesn’t leave the payees much ground for argument. --0 0 . You have a lot of friends who will not be forgotten on Christ- _ mas. But don't overlook those who are sure to be forgotten unless you remember them. Make your donation to the mental health fund before you forget the forgotten. O/ ■ o Don’t forget donations of used furniture or baked goods to the Decatur Youth and Community center for its sale to raise operating funds Saturday. More than 50 students and instructors of the Reppert School of Auctioneering have offered their services free 4 to our community for the purpose. Let’s get behind the drive and then attend the sale. a 0 The U. S. public health service has announced that not a single death from polio was reported from a .child which had had the three shots of Salk vaccine as recommended. Yet four out of every five Americans are not vaccinated. There are sufficient treatments available now for millions of more of the shots which are not being used. There is no cure of any kind presently available after the disease has been contacted by a person not immune by nature or by the vaccine, and the fight to find this will continue. If members of your family are counted among the 135 million Americans who have not been vaccinated you are gambling with death —,—o -o Farmers will vote December 11 on jthe governmental corn program they will follow for the next

three years. Since the benefits promised for the first year are not significantly higher than the free market on corn, a lot of farmers are not taking the election very seriously. Many of them believe the benefits are more to the advantage of the larger farmer or the semi-retired corn grower. However, since these are the only two programs being offered, and because they presumably will be effective for three years without change, they should be investigated thoroughly before election day so that an intelligent vote can be cast ——o o Conditions at the South Pole are about the same as were anticipated with pleasant summer weather of 25 degrees below zero being recorded by the scientists who are preparing the base for next winter's stay at the bottom of the world. There is nothing to see although there are 24 hours of daylight in which to look for something. Since the international date lines pass through the point, the residents have a choice of two days but only one choice in direction. Everything is north. With two days to choose from, they may also choose any of 48 hours as the correct time. All time zones pass through the South Pole. O ■ "O— The formal opening of the Back' Forty by the Fairway Restaurant adds another to the list of Decatur retailers who have improved their buildings and services this year. The Fairway has become one of the outstanding restaurants in Northeastern Indiana and has been the means of attracting a lot of out of town guests to our city. We wish it the continuation of the best of luck. We also congratulate all of the merchants who have participated in the “New Look,” which remodelling is giving our retail districts. Individual improvement is the best way to make the community as a whole more progressive. Customers come to the shopping centers which look attractive and which encourage trade by friendship, courtesy and service. The Fairway restaurant has been a leader in promoting these features.

Mission Speaker pjj gja The Rev. Alan J. Kieffer, pastor of the Pleasant View Lutheran church in Indianapolis, will conduct the preaching mission services at the Antioch Lutheran church in Hoagland at 7:30 o’clock each evening, Dec. 9 through 13. Themes of his messages will be as follow: Sunday morning, “The Songs of Salvation;” Sunday evening, “Be Still and Know that I Am God;” Monday, “The Lord of Hosts Is With Us;” Tuesday, “Seek the Lord and His Strength, Seek His Presence Continually;" Wednesday, “Commit Your Way to the Lord, Trust in Him and He Will Act;” Thursday, "Create in Me a Clean Heart, O God, and Put a New and Right Spirit Within Me.” Two Appointments listed By Handley Secretary, State Fire Marshal Named INDIANAPOLIS (UP) — James D. Allen of Salem will serve as executive secretary to the governor and Jay Foster of Kokomo will be the new State Fire Marshal in the next administration, Gov.elect Harold W. Handley announced Tuesday. Allen, a long-time state legislator and House Speaker in the 1953 General Assembly, succeeds Horace Coats, Indianapolis, an appointee of Governor Craig. 1 Foster has served” as deputy state fire marshal since 1953. He succeeds Arnold H. Mesiter of Anderson*;whom Craig appointed early in 1953. , Handley Saids Allen "WHI "Se/vi as advisor om legislature ■ foa'tterii in addition to taking care of appointments and correspondence. . He said he picked Allen as his personal aide because of his “rare legislative experience and knowledge of state government.” Handley also indicated at a news conference that he has no immediate plans for a high post for his publicity man, Herbert R. Hill, Indianapolis. He said Hill “is not my press secretary, but the press secretary of the state committee,” and will remain on the payroll of the Re* publican state organization “at the present time»” Craig’s former publicity man, William O’Connell, Chicago, resigned shortly after the Handley forces won at the June party nominating convention in Indianapolis. The Handley faction complained O’Connell was paid by the state organization but worked only for Craig. Hill also worked for other candidates on the state ticket during the recent campaign. Handley said the constittH< tionality of each case will determine whether Allen presides at board and commission meetings in the governor’s place as Coats has done under Craig. JHandley told reporters important state business will prevent him from accepting “hundreds of requests for speeches" until the legislative session ends. Later, however, he said he will resume his "smiling handshaking tour of the county fairs.” >

■ REPORT ALL (Continues rro-M Page Owe) has U.S. support. The sheikh did not refer to Iraq by name in his appeal, but his reference to Iraq’s Baghdad Pact alliance with Britain was obvious. He referred to "traitors” — the word the Arab nations have used in describing Nouri El-Said’s dealings with the West. ' Begin Ouster Move Both Egypt and Syria have begun a campaign to oust Nouri ElSaid. And Moscow radio has backed their claims that Iraq is in league with Israel, Turkey and Britain to overthrow the Commu-nist-influenced Syrian government. —Middle East experts in 'London regarded with utmost gravity the use of the rector of El Azhar in the anti-Iraq campaign. His voice carries weight with the Iraqi masses who have shown signs of ferment under the concentrated barrage of anti-goverrtment propaganda. “It is the boUnden religious duty of every Moslem to combat traitors supporting their countries’ enemies,” the sheikh said. He urged all Arabs and Moslems “at this crucial moment to unite to shatter all foreign shackles and guard against the pitfalls of foreign pacts.” Trade in a Good Town — Decatut

Advent Services At Zion Lutheran Special Midweek Services Planned This season of the church preparatory to Christmas, known as advent, will be observed with special midweek services by the local Zion Lutheran church. West Monroe and Eleventh streets. The services will be conducted Thursday evenings at 7 o’clock, with the first one tomorrow evening. There Will be two other such Advent vespers on December 13 and 20. The services will be conducted by the pastor, the Rev. Edgar P. Schmidt, who will speak on the themes: " The Sign of Christmas” Isaiah. 7, 14; "The Tragedy of Christmas,” Genesis 3, 15; and the Brightness of Christmas,” Isaiah 8, 20 to 9, 2. All services bdgin at seven o’clock. This week’s service will be shortened to provide ample opportunity for those holding tickets to hear the Eger Players at the Community Center at 8 o’clock. An advent Communion will be celebrated following the vesper next Thursday, and on the 20th the traditional carol and candlelighting Christmas vesper will be held, with primary, junior, and senior church choirs participating. In giving the reason for conducting these Thursday vespers, the Rev. Mr. Schmidt stated: "The rush for material goods and for social celebration and recognition at this time of year can displace for us the deeper meaning of Christmas. In our Christmas preparation it is so easy to overlook Him who make? Christian Christmas, the Christ Child, Jesus, who was born to be our Savior from sin and death. That is why we have added these special advent services.” The public is invited to worship at these Thursday vespers.

Charges Conspiracy To Rule TV Market Radio Corporation And NBC Charged NEW YORK (UP) — The Radio Corporation of America and its subsidiary, the National Broadcasting Co., today blamed a government “jurisdictional dispute” for a Justice Department suit charging RCA and NBC with conspiring illegally to gain control of five of the nation's- eight television markets. RCA and NBC said in a statement they had been “caught in the middle” in a "jurisdictional dispute” between the anti-trust division and the Federal Communications Commission over exchange of stations with the Westinghouse Broadcasting Co. last year. The Justice Department filed a civil suit in Philadelphia Tuesday charging violation of the Sherman Anti-Trust Act. It charged that RCA and NBC had forced Westinghouse into the exchange through the “unlawful use of NBC’s power, as a network, to grant or withhold NBC network affiliation.” In the deal, Westinghouse gave up Radio Station KYW and television station WPTZ (now WRCV) in Philadelphia in exchange for 3 million dollars and NBC’s Cleveland outlets. Radio Station WTAM-AM-FM, and TV station WNBK-TV. If Westinghouse had balked, the department said, "it would lose its NBC affiliation in Boston and Philadelphia, it would not be granted NBC affiliation in Pittsburgh.” RCA and NBC said the exchange of stations was approved by the FCC in December, 1955, as “in the public interest” and that Westinghouse urged approval by the FCC. “If American businesses are to be hauled into court by the antitrust division because they act in conformance with the rulings of an authorized government agency, then indeed confusion will be compounded by confusion,” the RCANBC statement said.
