Fort Wayne filling stations are still having a controversy over gasoline prices. Cost is from 24 cents to 28.9 cents per gallon. The price war isn’t very profitable for the station operators but it’s great for the motorist who is getting gasoline at onq of the lowest prices in the nation. o o— Shoppers who got the many fine bargains in Decatur stores on Dollar Day are reminded that you always get more for your shopping dollar in Decatur. Get the trade in Decatur habit and watch your dollars go farther. „ -o —o Several drowning incidents have marred the summer, and people who plan to spend this week-end and other week-ends at northern Indiana lakes are urged to use caution around the water, especially in lakes which they do not know too well. A little care may save a life and stamy out a tragedy. —-o o—— Highways were crowded but orderly last week-end and Adams county did not record a motor tragedy. People, with the exception of a few speed crazy drivers are beginning slowly to respect the rights of others and are driving more sanely and sensibly. Laws won’t be the entire answer. Driver education also is necessary. There is no place in our modern living for the reckless and heedless motorist. Let's all join in eliminating him. O IN 0 Lake Erie, between Sandusky, 0., and Port Clinton, O„ offers vacationers Just about everything in the vacation book. There are good beaches, golf courses, boat excursions to the nearby islands ■and plenty of fishing trips. To- **■ gether with all of this, the vaca’tion town of Port Clinton and the surrounding area offer numerous ■first class dining rooms. The closeness of Lake Erie, which is only 140 miles from Decatur makes that resort location one Ipof the best in the nation for peo- | pie from here. Lakeside with its | fine hotel, which is a Methodist | summer resort and religious cen-*-s tar also is nearby for those who want to profit spiritually while resting.

Many local residents afe presently on vacation and the return home and to school will soon start. August is a great vacation month and Labor Day early in September is the signal for summer vacations to end and Back to School. o 0 If you like beautiful scenery and are looking tor an autumn vacation, don’t overlook a visit to the Great Smoky Mountains, which border Tennessee and North Carolina. In September and October these mountains take cm a fairy-like picture unequalled in the world. There are plenty of modern accommodations throughout the section and the grandeur starts only 500 miles from here. You will never be sorry if you spend a few days this fall visiting this wonderland or beauty and relaxation. o—o— We’re happy for the postal employes who have been voted a wage increase by the Democratic House over the objections of President Eisenhower. The sad thing is that many of these same employes will continue to vote Republican and tor big business which has a long record of favoring low wages. The wage rise matter still will have to go to a House-Senate conference, but indications are there are sufficient votes to enact it into law, even against the Administration’s wishes. o o— One of the Yinesf classes of Reppert School of Auctioneering is presently completing the work at Bellmont Park here. Several actual auction sales are scheduled for the elosing days and when the almost one hundred students complete their work, they will depart to all sections of North America to take up their newly acquired work. The Reppert faculty is the finest in the nation and the embryo sale-call-ers get the best possible instruction from a group of experienced men, many with world-wide reputations. We are sorry that these men must leave Decatur so soon for they have made many friends here. We join the citizens of our community, however, in wishing each new Reppert graduate high success in their chosen field.

DORIA GIVES (Continued front Pnge One) ’ “not one single act of Dio’s while Dio was district director for the UAW-AFL, “could be character- ’ ized as even approaching labor 5 racketeering.” " “All Dio wanted to do,’* said 1 Doria, “was build a union.” Doria acknowledged, however, r that he had criticized Dio “for the ! people he surrounded himself' - with.” He also said he had talked to Dio about the charges against him , in connection with the acid blinding of labor reporter Victor Riesel. “He (Dio) says it is an absolute farce. He is not implicated in it,” » Doria said. 1 He added that “it is quite evi- » dent there is no evidence against 1 Dio." REPORT SAUDI (Continued from Pare One) ■ The stronghold of Nizwa, some ‘ 80 miles inland from the capital of 1 Muscat, fell to British and Muscat - troops who had broken the back of ! the resistance in a skirmish at Firq. f In Cairo Sheikh Mohammed ElI Harithy, representative of tiig reb- ■ el Imam, predicted continuous ! guerrilla warfare in the mountains. He said the war would continue despite the fall of Nizwa. The Arab League political committee called a meeting in Cairo today to take action on a proposal to raise the Oman issue before the ■ United Nations Security Council. Some Arab states have accused Britain of "agression” in heeding the Sultan’s appeal for aid. Reports from the front said the rebel leaders fled their capital and were racing toward J e b e 1 Akhdar (Green Mountain) and Tanuf, headquarters of the dissident Sheikh Suleiman Bin Himyar. They were deported at Birkat Al Mauz, a village 10 miles to the west. There was no trace at Nizwa of the rebel leader, the Imam of Oman, Galib Bin Ali. His brother, Talib, believed to be the Imam’s military leader, also was missing. Front dispatches said the battle for Firq was not yet oyer because some rebels were still fighting frqm caves and would have to be dug out one at a time. The rebels were reported also to be holding a roadblock in the area. The sultan’s forces found 40 soldiers of the Oman regiment and an Indian medical officer held prisoner *n South Nizwa. They were captured when the Imam's rebel forces ejected loyal troops ■ at the start of the revolt three I weeks ago. I

Free TV Versus Pay TV Is Fierce Controversy

Editor's note: The first of five 1 dispatches on the issue of free 1 TV versus toll TV. Today—what is the controversy all about?

.. — .■Tt’-* .n. - ~ ri By WILLIAM EWALD United Press Staff Correspondent NEW YORK (UP) — Your TV set is the booty at stake in the fiercest struggle in the history of the electronic mousetrap. „ r The issues Fee TV versus free TV. The questions: Are you satisfied with the shows you see now on TV? If not, would you be willing to pay to see programs without commercials? How much would you be willing to pay—as muCh as 50 cents or a dollar for a good movie or Broadway play? The battle is getting hotter. The networks are very much against toll TV. The backers of pay TV, a highly vocal group, are pressing hard for it. In fact, everyone is getting into the act. Sound-offs have been heard from parties as diverse as Jackie Gleason (yes), Sen. Strom Thurmond (no>, the Metropolitan Opera Association (yea), craft unions (yes and no), the Brooklyn Dodgers lyes), movie theater--owners' no) and the General Federation of Women’s Clubs (lukewarm no). The Different Sides In time, yoti may be forced to pick and choose sides. This is how the sides stack up: The advocates of free TV say pay TV is a betrayal of the 40 million set owners who bought their machines believing that free entertainment would be provided and advertisers would carry the pay load. They say commercial TV stuffs you now with such goodies as Perry Como, movies, Garry Moore, athletic events, Lawrence iWelk, opera, “Peter Pan” and Cleo the talking Basset hound. You get all these free. Why pay? The advocates of pay TV (also called toll TV, subscription TV, jukebox TV, loot-down-the-chute TV, slot machine TV or turnstile TV depending upon your point of view, say bosh. They say there is nothing free about free TV—that you help pay for shows every time you shell out for a pack of cigarettes or a bottle of tired blood elixir. What’s more, say toll TV’ers. you would like to see good first run movies and sock stage shows like “South Pacific," but that advertisers can’t afford them. They say some of you would like a fatter diet of opera, ballet, | chewy dramas and educational programs, but the economics of broadcasting rule this out. It Is Expensive Toll TV’ers say they can furnish you with this kind of fare right on your own TV set if you're willing to dip into your pocketbook. They say they can do it without commercials. They say, you won’t lose your regular shows ■ on free TV — that pay TV will supplement them. Toll TV’ers can bring their product into your home in two ways—by air or by wire. The air- ; waves are the cheapest way, but the Federal Communications Commission must grant permission to • toll TV firms to use the air. The FCC has been dragging its heels : on the matter, but there is hope j that a decision may be forthcom-' ing on Sept. 17. Wiring a city for TV (just as a I city is wired for telephone service > is expensive, but no FCC I okay is needed—just permission from the city itself. One toll j spokesman has estimated it would cost 12 million- dollars to wire the | city of Los Angeles, a heady investment. One city in this nation—Bartlesville, Okla. — already is being wired for pay TV. Interestingly enough, a chain of movie theatres is backing the venture. One official connected with the enterprise estimates that some Bartlesville homes will be ready for pay-in-the-parlor TV by early fall. For $9.50, citizens will get a chance to see 30 uninterrupted movies a month. If the venture is successful, 35 other cities in the Southwest may I
