rare snowfall in Mississippi and Alabama. The wintry blast also pounded points north, and weathermen issued warnings of heavy snow accumulations today in West Virginia, west and central Pennsylvania and western sections of Virginia. The storm’s low blow in the South was blamed on a cold front that drove, out of the Great Plains Thursday, swept across the Mississippi Valley and into the East. It hit the South with all of winter's elements—freezing temperatures, ice and snow. The storm started with rain, but turned to ice and snow as readings plunged into the 30s during the night in portions of the Gulf Coast states. The widespread snow band powdered the northern half of Mississippi and Alabama and dumped heavier amounts northward through Tennessee, Kentucky, West Virginia, Ohio and Western Pennsylvania. About two to three inches of snow were reported from northern Tennessee through Kentucky and West Virginia this morning. Dangerous driving conditions were reported throughout the area. . Rain continued 4ft. fall ahead of the snow to the Atlantic Coast, but weathermen said it will

change to snow as the storm pushes east. Forecasters said the snow belt today will stretch from New England through the Atlantic states and into northern Georgia. However, they said the Sn<w<>robably will be mixed with rtnn along the coast. Relatively mild weather replaced the cold air in the northern and central plains, which usually bear the brunt o fwintry storms. The warming averaged about 25 degrees in the northern plains and 20 degrees in the Central Plains. Heavy rains continued to pound the northwest coastal section, with Newport, Ore., reporting a 2.82inch deluge in 24 hours. Other 24hour amounts in Oregon included Astoria, 1.22 inches and Salem 1.43.

Some Os GOP Congressmen Are Restive Rebellious Spirit Grows In Congress Against President WASHINGTON (UP)—President Eisenhower's second term honeymoon may last ho longer than President Roosevelt's. While no real revolt is in sight, a rebellious spirit is developing among members of his own party in Congress. * Some are complaining about what they consider major irritations like the still sizeable foreign aid program and the record peacetime budget of $71.8 billion for the coming fiscal year. Others are grousing about minor annoyances. JThey do not want to learn first from their newspapers about government action affecting their constituencies or their committee chores in Congress. They want to be consulted. Trouble Fuf Administration All this cab spell trouble for Mr. Eisenhower’s legislative proSram. How serious it may be will e more apparent by next summer. Republicans and Democrats have a healthy respect for the vote polled by Mr. Eisenhower last November. But some veteran Republicans in Congress. believe there will be a growing tendency for each man “to go his own way" in voting on the administration's legislative program. One reason for added sensitivity to the home front is that the House’s entire 435 seats and onethird of the Senate’s 96 are at stake in the mid-term elections of 1958. Some Eisenhower partisans in Congress want the President to give them more concrete help to get his legislation passed. On the other hand, some conservative Republicans think he has embraced the New Deal and submitted legislation that would better be forgotten. Some Republicans want Mr. Eisenhower to visit more with members of Congress. Others feel he’s too deeply tied up with foreign affairs to do that, but want his White House, cabinet and subcabinet officials to give more attention to Congress. Don’t Relish Treatment A veteran Republican senator said he got more sympathetic treatment from the executive departments when the Democrats were in control. And here a Republican House member is talking: "The President ought to take just ope month and see the members of Congress. The main trouble is that the guys around the President don’t care about Congress. He's involved in foreign affairs. The members of the House are interested in what's happening at home. But Ike’s men are big shots. They don’t have time for our problems. "They don’t hesitate to call up when they want something. But when we want something—maybe just a little thing like an autographed picture of the President to send back to a county chairman — they say he’s too busy. "Also the President ought to be seeing some local political leaders. I had a fellow in from home recently who could do the party a lot of good. He wanted to see the President. I told him it wasn't even worth trying." Flox Funeral Rites Held This Afternoon Funeral services were conducted this afternoon at Columbia City for Jacob Oren Flox, brother of Mrs. Isadore Bernstein of this city, who died Wednesday afternoon following a heart attack.
