lation of the fpm "Martin Luther" by a Chicago television station. Dr. John W. Harms, executive vice president of the Church Federation of Greater Chicago, chairman of the group’s Protestant Action Committee and « spokesman for the irate churchmen, told a news conference, "this is no longer a local issue... it goes to the heart of the TV industry.” The station, WGN-TV, cancelled a scheduled Dec. 21 showing of the film on Dec. 19. Harms said the committee de-

cided to act Wednesday after conferring with Ward L. Quaal. vice ! president and general manager of • WGN, Inc., about rescheduling the • film. Quaal told the churchmen the ■ station had acted in good faith and I had no intention of rescheduling i the biographical presentation on • the 16th century leader of the Protestant movement. The protest is planned on the basis of an alleged violation of the ' station’s public interest responsibility through de facto censorship. > Harms said the group had "been rebuffed at every step by WGN-TB although it was working to help this station maintain freedom of broadcasting in Chicago.’* The group has charged the film was cancelled as a result of direct pressure by Roman Catholics. The Chancellor Office of the Chicago Roman Catholic Diocese has denied the charge. ’ Tighten Security On Hungarian Refugees Security Crackdown Voiced Wednesday CAMP KILMER. N.J. (UP)The government plans to tighten security and other restrictions on Hungarian refugees coming to the United States. Rep. Francis E. Walter (D-Pa), chairman of the House investigation subcommittee, announced the security crackdown Wednesday and said “many more people" are to be returned in the future. Walter came to this refugee reception center after it was announced that eight Hungarians were returned to Austria for giving false information. Another Hungarian returned at his own request. He said many of the first refugees to flee Hungary were “hardboiled Communists” trying to escape the ire of revolutionists, but that he was not sure how many Communists reached the United States. However, of those who have filtered through, Walter said he was "quite certain our authori-

The Pennsylvania Democrat, co-author of the McCarran-Walter immigration law, said he thought some Hungarian Communists had received permanent American visas while true rebels against Communism were forced to enter the country on parole.

dent He said many voters in the last campaign were "confused and bewildered by charges and claims made by both parties." "Part of the trbuble,” Wickard said, "is due to the fact that we try to do all of our political education during the last few weeks of a campaign when more heat than light is generated. “Part of the trouble is that we who have responsibilities as party leaders do not really get down to the matter of adopting basic party principles and standards until we get involved in the mechanics of winning an election. “To the end of making sure that we who wholeheartedly subscribe to the principles and objectives of Woodrow Wilson and for the purpose of better informing the voters why we support these principles and objectives, I suggest that we hold throughout Indiana similar meetings to the one you are having here tonight. "I would like to see such meetings held as soon as possible so that we can more nearly avpid complicating policy decisions and political education with the promotion of candidacies and patron-

Tension Mounts On Young Girl’s Murder North Dakota Town Rocked By Murder MANTADOR. N.D. (UP)— Tension mounted in this tiny community today in the wake at police speculation that one of its 125 residents was the killer of a 15-year-old school girl. Townspeople were grimly silent, fearful one of their neighbors might be the slayer of Rosemary Merles, whose beaten and strangled body was found Tuesday night In a clump of trees near here. “How could anyone have done such a thing?" asked a tearful waitress. “Now we can’t even let our children but of doors for even a minute.** The case broke on State’s Atty. Norton Helte’s first day in office. Helte, a former FBI agent, said he was convinced the killer is a resident of this hamlet in the southeast corner of North Dakota. He said Rosemary, described as a shy, studious girl who "never went but with boys," apparently was strangled from behind shortly after she left a bowling alley where she worked. Coroner C.V. Bateman said an autopsy indicated the killer lay in wait for Rosemary and choked her from behind with a scarf knotted behind her head. Authorities said there was no evidence of a sexual attack, but the fact her clothes were disarrayed and pulled from her body indicated a sex motive for the crime. • ... v H. S.

It was largely an appraisal of the domestic and world situations,, with less emphasis on legislative recommendations. •' - , Repeats Mideast Concern • On the international front, Mr. Eisenhower repeated his concern over the threat of Soviet aggression in the Middle East. . Obviously aware of Democratic opposition to the scope of the authorization he requested of Congress to cope with this threat, he said today that “this matter tt of vital and immediate importance" to the security and peace of the nation and the free world. ,2_._ Mr. Eisenhower last Saturday asked a special joint session of Congress for stand-by authority to use American armed forces, if necessary, to combat any Communist aggression in the Middle East area. He coupled this with a proposed economic aid program for the Middle East. Today he said: "By our proposed programs in the Middle East we hope, to assist in establishing a climate in which constructive and long-term solutions to basic problems of the area may be sought." In the' domestic field, Mr. Eisenhower explained that his detailed farm program for 1957 would be outlined in the budget message. But in the meantime, he said, he found that "the long slide in farm income has been halted and that further improvement is in prospect." He called this "heartening progress” and promised that the administration would seek constantly new ways by which farm families could share more fully in the unprecedented prosperity of the nation." Need More Classrooms _ He devoted a special section of his message to restating his firm support 'for the "partnership" theory of developing the nation’s water resources. He said partnership of federal, state and local authorities in development of projects for irrigation, flood control, power production and domestic and industrial use would bring about the greatest possible economy and efficiency because of "a live sense of local responsibility." Mr. Eisenhower urged speedy action on the school construction bill to meet 'emergency needs for more classrooms to benefit "Children of all races.” He expressed the hope that the legislation could be enacted on its own merits. He said the legislative approach to school construction should not be complicated "by provisions dealing with the complex problems of integration." ' » ' Trade tn a mom Town — DeMtm

Hungarian Workers Threatening To Flee Thousands Protest Dictator Return VIENNA W — Thousands of Hungarian workers are threatening to flee to the West in protest against the return of Communist dictatorship, reports reaching Vienna said today. Reports from Hungary said workers at factories in scattered regions of the country staged protest marches and demonstrations in open defiance of martial law. The new blue-coated police force of Premier Janoa Kadar turned out in force on several occasions but there were no reports of violence. Workers carried placards bearing such slogans as: "We will flee to the West" and "Mass dismissals must end,” the reports said. The Soviet—imposed puppet premier ordered some 200,000 workers laid off from the nationalized factories idled by the fuel and power shortages. DEAN ACHESON (C—frew P»K» o—> his views on the resolution to the committee. The committee's Democratic members rejected a proposed substitute for the “Eisenhower Doctrine” advanced by a “very prominent" Democrat. They did so after Dulles denounced the substitute.

Several flaly rejected IL The substitute would state only that the United States regards the independence of Middle East nations as vital and would fight, if necessary, to protect them. / Mr. Eisenhower’s proposal/specified that the United States Would go to the Middle East’s defense only in event of Communist aggression. It also would give the President authority to commit American troops without advance congressional approval and would authorize a 8400 million program of economic and military aid to strengthen Middle East nations. The substitute was referred to the committee without endorsement by Speaker Sam Rayburn (Tex), who said it was submitted to him by a "very prominent” Democrat formerly in the government. He would not identify the Democrat but said he was not former President Truman or former Secretary of State Dean Acheson. Trade Jna (Jood Town — Dacatns
