Said it would cost the American League "at least half a million" in attendance this season. •'lt'll hurt every club in the league. Kansas City and New York, as well as the rest of us," moaned Comiskey. "All it means is that the Yankees will clinch the pennrnt a little earlier, and when they start pulling away, the attendance will start dropping." • < M, "Last year w-hen the Yanks started moving away in midAugust." he said, “the attendance fell off everywhere, and this year
it'll just happen a little earlier. And Kansas City didn't get enough to finish in the first division." "The pitchers they got couldn't pitch last year and they won’t this year." said the young White Sox executive. "Why (Mickey) McDermott pitched against us one game here last year," he said, "and didn’t get two men out and the other •pitchers weren’t any better." Comiskey, however, had high praise for Art Ditmar and his work against the Sox. and possibly was worried about him as a much improved hUrler in a Yankee suit. The Sox vice president said New York wanted Ditmat or?two Washingtoiy pitchers—Pedro Ramos and Camilo Pascual—to bolster -their right-handed throwing. Comiskey felt the infielders picked up by the A’s won’t make the grade, even with the last place contender. Milt Graf, he skid, wouldn’t take over second base for the A’s from Curt Roberts. He labelled Billy Hunter as “too erratic" to step into the shoes of veteran Joe Demaestri at shortstop.
Many Susceptible To Polio In Pregnancy Salk Polio Vaccine Urged For Women NEW YORK (UP) — A new scientific study of polio-and-the-preg-nant-woman is going to make medical science even more eager for all women of child-bearing age to have the Salk anti-polio vaccine. The study was made by Dr. Mila E. Rindge, epidemiologist of the Connecticut DepartmeaUaf Health. Its most important finding was that pregnant women are even more susceptible thah had been thought. It showed also that after the age of 15. females are more susceptible than males. From 1951 through 1955, 2.167 polio cases were reported to the department. Os that number, 456 were females over 15 and 79 per Cent of them—l 7.3 per cent of the total number of cases—were pregnant. Since in the general population, according to accepted statistics, only 7 per cent of females between 20 and 40 are pregnant at any given time. 17.3-per cent is an eloquent percentage. It shows the pregnant woman is much more susceptible than the woman who isn’t. Previous estimates of the greater susceptibility of the pregnant woman over non-pregnant females were considerably less than this one.

Sen. Johnson Scores Ike's Pressure Call Expresses Regret At Pressure Call Against Israeli WASHINGTON (UP)’- Senate Democratic Leader Lyndon B. Johnson said Wednesday night he regrets President Eisenhower's call to “bring pressure” on Israel alone to withdraw its troops from Egyot. Johnson said Israel should withdraw its troops as the President again urged in his nationwide address Wednesday night. But Johnson said “the withdrawal should be accompanied by adequate U.N. action that will not leave Israel defenseless.” ‘‘l regret that the administration feels that there is no choice but to bring pressure on one side in a two-sided dispute in the Middle Eas| unless certain terms arc met,” he said. « - Senate Republican Leader William F. Knowland urged before the President's address that the United States demand U.N. sanctions against any nation defying the United Nations — not just Israel. Says Guarantees Needed Knowland said after the address that he had not heard it and would not comment until he had studied it. Sen. J. William Fulbright «DArk), a member of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, said Israel should be guaranteed fair treatment by Egypt before withdrawing its troops. “We ought to find away to gaurantee Israel free use of the before we expect her to withdraw,” he said. “If we don’t Israel will be justified in her attitude." Sen. Mike Mansfield (D-Mont), also a Foreign Relations Committee member, said "the President seems to have made his extremely difficult decision, and we will do our best to uphold him.” Speech Impresses Smith "I believe though that if sanctions is the ultimate answer against Israel, the doctrine of equality will have become a mockery.** * Sen. H. Alexander Smith <RNJ), another member of the committee, said he was impressed with the President's "strong statement that agressors should have np reward.” He said he shared the view "we have; got tp. support the U.N.” But he said he did "not think that any ’ sanctions action should be taken unilaterally against Isracl If no action is taken against others who have defied the U t "I favor Sen. Knowland s proposal,” he said. ' « —I

Little Damage Done In Fire At School A fire which started in a waste paper basket on the first floor of the Decatur Catholic high school and grade school building was put out before any serious damage was done Wednesday evening.

Bluffton Youth To Be Granted Parole Kenneth Thompson, Bluffton teenager, who went to Indiana boys school at Plainfield last May on a plea of guilty to armed rape, is to be paroled in two weeks according to word received here by the Adams county sheriff’s department. Thompson was sentenced to the boys school until 21 years of age ’By Judge Myles Parrish after the boy admitted his part in the rape-robbery attack of a young Decatur couple last April. Authorities who notified tlje local officials of the parole stated that "Thompson is completely rehabilitated.” Charles W. Ostrander, 37, also of Bluffton, is currently serving a ,20-year-sentence at the Indiana state prison on conviction of armed rape charges arising from the same attack. Speech Highlights WASHINGTON (UP)—Highlights of President Eisenhower’s address on the Middle East situation: "I believe that in the interests of peace the United Nations has no choice but to exert pressure on Israel to comply” with U.N. resolutions ordering it to withdraw its forces from Egypt. s “Os course, we still hope that the government of Israel will see that its best immediate and longterm interests lie in compliance with the United Nations and in placing its trust in the resolutions of the United Nations and in the declaration of the United States with reference to the future.” If the United Nations “does nothing, if it accepts the ignoring of its repeated resolutions calling for withdrawal of invading forces, then it will have admitted failure. This failure would be a blow to the authority and influence of the United Nations in the world and to the hopes which humanity placed in the United Nations as the means of achieving peace with justice.” Such a failure “would, in addition to its injury to the United Nations, jeopardize the prospects Os the peaceful solution of the problems of the Middle East. This could bring incalculable ills to our friends and indeed to the nation itself. The United Nations must not fail." “I do not believe that Israel’s default should be ignored because the United Nations has not been able effectively to carry out its resolutions condemning the Soviet Union for its armed suppression of the people of Hungary. Perhaps this is a case where ,the proverb applies that two wrongs do not make a right.” "No one deplores more than I the fact that the Soviet Union ignores the resolutions of the United Nations. Also no nation is more vigorous than is the United States in seeking to exert moral pressure against the Soviet Union which by reason of its size and power and by reason of its veto in the United Nations Security Council, is relatively impervious to other types of sanction.’
GOP Congressmen Assail Democrats Partisan Scrap Over Soil Bank Program WASHINGTON <UP) — Republican congressmen assailed Democrats Wednesday in a partisan fight over the future of the $1.2 billion-a-year soil bank. Republican farm congressmen denounced Democratic farm congressmen for ramming through the House Agriculture Committee Tuesday a bill ‘opening the soil bank to growers of additional crops. They accused Democrats of “scuttling” Republican - backed legislation to restore last year’s soil bank benefits for midwestern corn growers by wrapping it into a catch-all bill. They said President Eisenhower would veto the Democratic bill in its present form. The three senior Republicans on the House Agriculture Committee issued separate statements denouncing the Democrats. The statements contained estimates that the Democratic proposal would cost as much as 750 million dollars or 1 billion dollars. Rep. August fl. Andresen JRMinn) said the committee demonstrated “it has become the vehicle for cheap political claptrap.-” Rep. Charles B. Hoeven (R---lowa) accused the Democrats of “scuttling emergency legislation to restore soil bank benefits for midwestern corn growers by loading it with amendments that would be certain to produce a presidential veto.” He even put the cost of the Democratic plan at beween 600 million dollars and 1 billion dollars. Andresen said it could add 750 million dollars a year to the cost of the soil bank. The battle pitted midwestern Republicans interested in corn
