—— ■'eawfri, . Junior baseball to the form of Little League and Pony League, gets underway this week. You‘U enjoy attending these games and you’ll be pleased and amazed at the brand of baseban demonstrated by the tittle fellows. —o o— —— Present Congressional plans to reduce proposed budgets a total of five billion dollar* will certainly be a starter toward government economy. It may even predicate a reduction in our stiff federal income tax. We musn’t stop now however. If we keep harping away, Congress will keep hacking away and maybe we can cut another billion or two. Let’s hope so. - Q O uh— Activity continues constantly at the Youth and Community Center and hundreds of young people and adults make daily use of this wonderful building. In a short time the recreation board will have a permanent director, and there will be still more activities. Some day a swimming pool will be added to the present facilities, and other improvements will be made. It’s a great asset to our city and a great Center for both young and old. >■ o o It’s an easy matter to neglect your insurance needs. Values have risen steadily on homes and personal property- Consult your local insurance agent and he will be able to advise you as to whether, you have proper and sufficient insurance to keep up with present times. It’s an easy matter to overlook and one fire could cause you a loss that would take year* to replace. See your agent before you take your summer vacation and enjoy worry-free days. ■ Yfl, i O Whether you are a staunch follower of President Eisenhower or not, his action to defend his budget stand is admirable. Some days during this unpredictable Congress he stands alone, but he has not given an inch. Many Republicans, including some of the leaders, who hung desperately onto the Eisenhower coat-tail during the last election, have deserted their leader to preference to the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, Manufacturer’s Association and various other lobbyists where the big money to. *

The pool is operated for the pleasure of local citizens and their families. Take advantage of it. Swimming is one of summer’s most enjoyable and healthful summer recreations, for both young and old. -■--<> —o The Democratic party had a wonderful opportunity to establish an enviable record to this Congress, but poor leadership to both Houses has sent the opportunity of service to the Nation to the discards. Civil rights disagreements, inability of the elected leaders to lead when necessary and intra-party difference have banded together to make the present congressional session very ordinary. O 'O' Work started this week on hooking the emergency power line from Indiana-Michigan onto the city electric lines to assure Decatur plenty of electric energy, i even to emergencies. The wires will be brought into the west part of the city from the high voltage lines of I au~ M. Permanent lines will be erected as quickly as possible, but to the meantime the temporary stand-by will serve whenever needed. There precautions are being taken because of the age of the steam generating plant and the inability of the diesel plant to provide sufficient electricity to case of a breakdown. Weather caused postponement of the last week-end opening of Decatur’s municipal swimming pool for the summer season. The popular attraction at Waterworks pork is ready for the summer traffic and will open early this , week as soon as the weather permits. Remember, there are numerous benches and tables at the park and many people have their picnics at Waterworks, where the kiddies can swim until the picnic table to made ready. Decatur’s other two popular parks also are open and ready to provide picnicking pleasure for the whole family.

International Legal Tangle From Ruling Military Trials Os Civilians Outlawed WASHINGTON (UP)—Congress may have to unsnarl the national and international legal tangle caused by the Supreme Court’s ruling on courts-martial of American civilians overseas. The court Monday, in a 6-2 ruling, outlawed military trials for GI dependents overseas accused of crimes punishable by death. The status of civilians committing lesser crimes may be decided in a later case. Defense Department lawyers declined immediate comment on the decision, saying they would have to study the court opinions. The government contended in fighting to keep courts - martial that civilian employes and dependents might be barred from going overseas if the armed forces were deprived of power to try them. One effect of the ruling apparently will be to subject any servicemen’s dependents overseas accused of capital crimes to immediate jurisdiction of foreign courts. The Pentagon had no information compiled on what cases if any of this type are now in litigation. The decision may have an important bearing on this country's so-called “status-of-forccs” agreements with foreign nations governing trial of Americans abroad. The court ruling overturned a 5-3 opinion a year ago in the same case. Monday’s decision frees’ from further prosecution in any American court Mrs. Dorothy Krueger Smith, convicted in 1953 in Tokyo of fata|jy stabbing her husband; and Mrs. Clarice B. Covert of Atlanta, Ga., convicted of the axe murder of her husband the same year in England. Frederick B. Wiener. Washington attorney who represented the two women, said their fate now hinges on terms of extradition treaties with the two nations, and on whether* Britain or Japan may want to demand return of either woman for trial there.

Staff Members Ousted The International Association of Machinists (AFL - CIO) Monday dismissed three staff members who cited the Fifth Amendment last week before the Senate Internal Security Subcommittee in refusing to answer questions about past Communist connections. AFL - CIO President George Meany, in a terse’statement issued following the hearings, said “I will bring this matter to the atten-’ tion of the executive council at the earliest possible opportunity.” Hutcheson, who invoked the Fifth Amendment 36 times, even cited it when asked how he voted when his fellow members of the AFL-CIO Executive Committee decided to oust Teamsters President Dave Beck for pleading the constitutional privilege.
