Armed Bandits Loot Mazelin Firm Thursday

Four men, two of whom were armed, robbed the Mazelin Heating and Appliance store at 633 North Thirteenth street, shortly before 6 p. m. Thursday. The three bandits and a companion were in the business establishment between 4:30 and 4:45 p. m., pricing television sets and several other items. After they learned that the stere was open until 6 p. m. they left. Another couple was in the store at the ; time. When they returned at 5:45, the three men entered * the front door, and two of them, with large caliber automatic pistols, forced both Mr. and Mrs. Mazelin, who were in the store alone, into a , back room. There they securely tied the couple with separate pieces of ordinary clothesline tope. . One of the men locked the front door “While the other looted the cash register of approximately S7O. When they were informed by Mazelin that there was no other cash in the store, they took h‘s billfold, containing about $lB, and several credit cards. The fourth man, driving the getaway car, had by this time delivered the car to the back entrance of the building. The other three proceeded to loot the store of hundreds of dollars worth of merchandise. Among the items taken were an electric mixer, a portable grill, a roto-broiler, two radio and record combinations, a 17-inch portable television set, a 14-inch portable television set, a vacuum cleaner, two portable radios and .numerous other items. Before leaving, the ‘polite’’ gunmen asked Mazelin for a telephone number so that they could ehll someone to come and untie the couple after their getaway. Mazelin gave him his son’s telephone number, but he was not contacted. The men fled in a 1952 Chevrolet. bearing AH (Marion county) license plates. It was not learned in which direction the headed.*" State police In Indiana and all surrounding states have been notified, but as yet, there has been no trace of the robbery car. The frightened couple was only able to describe two of the robbers. Mazelin was able to free himself shortly after the men left, and called local police. However, his wife was bound more securely than he. and this morning she stated that her wrists were still numb from the tight ropes. Both Mr. and Mrs. Mazelin have reported that none of the men attempted to hurt them in any way. They just seemed to be interested in obtaining cash, and when they didn’t secure enough, took off with the merchandise. Police officer Jay Minch investigated the robbery, assisted by chief etf police James Borders. 11th Nuclear Device Firing Postponed* LAS VEGAS, Nev.

Western Powers Offer Sweeping Plan Os Air And Ground Inspection

Civil Rights Bill Unlikely To Pass House Republican House Leaders Say Senate Action Kills Bill WASHINGTON (UP) — House Republican leaders said today Senate amendments to the civil rights bill probably have killed the bill's chances of becoming law this year. They said the House will not ace cept the jury trial amendment approved by the Senate early today, especially when coupled with earlier Senate action to confine the bill to voting rights only. “That probably kills the bill for this session,” said Republican Leader Joseph W. Martin Jr. (Mass.). “Die House will never agree to it.’’ Rep. Kenneth 3. Keating (RN.Y.), a likely member of the Senate-House conference committee which will try to compromise on the bill, said he hopes it has • not been killed but that “I am • afraid it has ” Democratic House leaders were , reluctant to appraise immediately? the effect of the Senate’s 51-42 vote; . .>-3 Die decision cleared the way for • Senate > approval within a week of , the first civil rights legislation in i eight decades. ; Threats of a southern filibuster evaporated. Some senators from the South, including Senate Democratic Leader Lyndon B. Johnson of Texas, now said they would vote for the bill. It now was essentially a voting rights bill with a provision for jury trial in civil contempt cases. The Senate last week dealt Eisenhower a first major setback by knocking out a broad provision that would have given the attorney general sweeping injunctive powers in civil rights cases generally. Subpena Power Issue Left • The only relatively important > disputed issue remaining con- ' cerned the subpena powers of a proposed bipartisan commission on civil rights. Administration forces have agreed to three concessions on the commission section of the bill. A coalition of 39 Democrats and 12 Republicans supported the jury trial amendment—the Republicans breaking with Eisenhower who came out strongly against the amendment Wednesday. Opposing it were 33 Republicans and 9 Democrats Continued On Base FJve Social Aids Band At Pleasant Mills Public Invited To Event August 10 “We are. inviting everyone to come and eat ice cream with us!” is the welcome the Pleasant school band extends to the public for August 10. To raise the band fund and buy new uniforms for the Pleasant Mills school band majorettes, the Pleasant Mills school band is slating an ice cream social for that Saturday, at the Pleasant Mills school. Beginning at 5:30 p.m., band members and their mothers will be on hand to sell homemade ice cream, cake, pie, sloppy joes, coffee, and soft drinks, to a background of music on the school grounds. Besides the twirling suits, proceeds will pay for more equipment for the band, states Mrs. Elmer Ehrsam, director of the Pleasant Mills school band. Parents, friends, and patrons of the Pleasant Mills school will be able to see the results when the band does parade work this fall and during the basketball season. Friends who wish to donate cakes and pies for the social are asked to contact Mrs. Ehrsam or bring their contributions in that evening.

Tell Fantastic Exploitation Os Workers Million New York Workers Exploited By Hoffa And Dio WASHINGTON <UP) — The Association of Catholic Trade Unionists told Senate investigators today that Teamster crown prince James R. Hoffa and “the mob” of his friend Johnny Dio threaten to rob a million New York workers of honest unionism. John McNiff, the Catholic association’s executive secretary, told the Senate Rackets Committee of a “fantastic” exploitation of lowpaid Negro and Puerto Rican workers by an alliance of crooked unions and crooked employers. He said the alliance of Hoffa, Dio and narcotics racket leader Anthony /(Tony Ducks) Corallo, and "their employer fronts...has already brought the New York City employers and their employes to their knees." Bertha Nunez, 27, an employe of a New York electric appliance maker, told the committee that one of Dio’s locals organized her shop with the .that ■boss- " . Workers had to join the union or be fired, She said. Miss Nunez, a native of Honduras, was the first of a number of low-paid New Yorkers summoned to testify about working conditions under so-called “sweetheart” contracts—contracts favorable to employers. Fired If Protested She said employes got a raise from $36 to 338 a week when the contract was signed, but had to pay sls or more in initiation fees and 31 a week in dues. She said workers often were fired after a month so the union could collect a new initiation fee from their successors. They also frequently were fired or laid off just before they were- to go on vacatiorf, she said. McNiff said it is standard procedure for a racket-ridden union to sign up with an employer who is interested in keeping out legitimate unions. Such contracts call for a wage only a few cents over the legal minimum of 31 an hour, and little or no benefits. Worker* are refused a copy of the contract and are fired if they protest, he said. Sen. John F. Kennedy (D-Mass.) commented that today’s testimony showed that "these people are not labor union leaders—they live off unions” Urgent Blood Need Cited For Decatur Seven Pints Used In Decatur Thursday Five pints of A positive blood were used yesterday at the Adams county memorial hospital for one accident patient, and a special trip from Fort Wayne to rush the blood here was made, emphasizing the necessity of a supply of blood, Mrs. Ed Bauer, chairman of the Red Cross blood program said today. The blood was used for Vincent Hanni, who was critically injured tn a train wreck. Two other pints of blood were necessary for another patient at the hospital, so that seven pints were used in one day. Because Adams county takes part in the blood program of the Red Cross, anyone from this county who needs blood may receive it for only transfusion costs in any of the cooperating hospitals. At least 75 more donors are urgently needed for the August 6 visit of the bloodmobile, Mrs. Bauer stressed. The unit will operate from 11 a.m. until 5 p.m. this time, allowing workers to get to the youth center, where the program is held. Rules on giving blood have been relaxed, and anyone wishing more (Continued on Page Eight)

County Receives i Gas Tax Check Distribution Higher From Gasoline Taxes Auditor Edward Jaberg today received a check for $70,678.49, from the state, reimbursing this county for gasoline tax money paid here. As a result of the two-cent tax hike since March 13, this amount is $16,869.52 higher than last year’s figure received at the end of July, 1 of $53,808.97. < Jaberg stressed that this added ' amount means that more money ‘ can now be spent on the county 1 highways. He stated that many persons in the county are under 1 the impression that money paid 1 into the county treasury, as coun- ’ ty taxes, is used for highway con- j struction and improvement. This is not true. The county highway department does not benefit from county taxes, but is solely depend- ' ent upon money collected through 1 gasoline taxation. Os the six cents state tax collected off of the sale of every gal- . lon of gasoline in this county. 53% ] is kept out for the state; 32%, is , returned to the county for'road ( and highway construction, and 15% is returned to cities and towns of . the state for street construction. The city should receive a cheek shortly tor $10,324, as fa share fe» | the gasoline tax distribution. —l Earl Utterback Is Speaker At Rotary Says Legislature Limit Too Short The 61-day constitutional time < limit on the Indiana legislature is ' too short, in the opinion of Earl ’ Utterback, Kokomo school teach- j er and state senator, in his -remarks to the Decatur Rotary 1 club at its weekly meeting last night at the Decatur Youth and ’ Community center. Utterback 1 emphasized that government is 1 everybody’s business and each ’ citizen must inform his repre- ' sentative concerning his wishes. ' The last few days of each ses- . sion are hectic and the pressing J is extremely heavy on all legis- j lation. Three of the most expensive bills passed at the last ses- . sion, namely establishment of a ( veterinary school at Purdue, , establishment of a geology school ] at Indiana University, and the t port of Indiana on Lake Michigan. ; were actually passed after the ■ time had really expired, and the ] clocks had been stopped. About 75% of the tax dollar now t goes to Washington. Formerly j the federal government claimed 3 only about 25%. Utterback stat- ( ed that federal aid must be ac- t cepted, or other taxable sources i found. He opined that t h e t present budget is too high, and stated that he had opposed in- c creases in taxes and fees. He I also had urged removal of the 1 office of superintendent of public ‘ instruction from politics, had 1 favored reapportionment of repre- £ sentation which had been neglected since 1921, and increased state 1 aid to education. Harry Hebble arranged the pro- , gram and Gail Grabill introduced t the speaker. President Robert { Smith presided. Vincent Hanni In Critical Condition Vincent Hanni, 39, victim of a train-truck colliison early Thursday, remains in critical condition at the Lutheran hospital in Fort Wayne, where he was rushed yesterday afternoon for emergency surgery. Hannie was taken into surgery at 5:30 p. m., and was still in at 11:30 p. ML - The accident occurred 4/5 mile north of Hoagland on the Minnich road. Hanni was driving a Modern Cleaners truck, and had almost, cleared the Pennsylvania railroad crossing when struck, by the train going 40 miles an hour.

Open Europe, North America To Inspection Broad Challenge To Reds For Admission To Soviet Territory LONDON (UP) — The Western . powers offered today to open all of Europe and North America to Soviet air and ground inspectors if Russia will admit the West to all Soviet territoryThe sweeping plan, presented to the five-power U.S. disarmament conference by Secretary of State John Foster Dulles, was the broadest challenge yet issued by the West in 11 years of stalemated arms cut talks. The Western plan included a flexible clause offering smaller, compressed zones in Europe and North America if Russia balks at throwing open all its vast territory. Dulles presented the plan on behalf of the United States, Britain, Canada and France with a plea that experts begin "at once” to draw up detailed blueprints." He said Soviet acceptance of these sweeping safeguards against surprise attack would help create settlement of major international disputes. The Dulles plan went much further than the original open skies plan first proposed by President Eisenhower at the Geneva summit conference July 21, 1955. —lt includes all of Canada instead of just the United States and the Soviet Union—a big concession. —lt also might include all of Europe from Ireland on the west to Russia’s Ural Mountains in the east. This means the whole of Western Europe (about 1,400,000 square miles) in return for all of Eastern Europe and European Russia (about 2,800,000 square miles.) It accepts Soviet Premier Nikolai Bulganin's demand for ground inspection. International inspection posts would be set up at ports, railway centers, road junctions and air fields in all the zones covered by open skies. But because Russia previously had f objected to including all Soviet territory under open skies, the new plan provided an alternate. For the U.S.-Canada-Russian zone, it would substitute the Arctic Circle, an area including sections of Canada, Alaska, Danish Greenland and northern Norway as well as Arctic Russia and all of Alaska, a border strip erf Canada and Russia’s Kamchatka Peninsula and Kurile Islands. If one of these zones is accepted, then the West will accept the Soviet proposal for a European zone with the provision that it include a “significant part of the territory of the Soviet Unkm as well as the other countries of Eastern Europe.” The Western plan was worked out in intensive negotiations which began with Dulles’ visit to Canada last week. British Foreign Secretary Selwyn Lloyd and French Foreign Minister Christian Pineau entered the talks here. A number of Allied differences had to be worked out. Dulles had failed up to this morning to overcome a sudden French about-face of the size of troop cuts. France was reported balking at the U.S. troop limitation plan on grounds such a ceiling Couti«n«> w me INDIANA WEATHER Showers and scattered thunderstorms over most of state tonight, probably beginning extreme northwest portion late this afternoon.
