U.S. Hopes Arab Friends Will Aid Syrian Crisis Holds Official Interest WASHINGTON W — U.IS. officials said today the United-States hopes Syria's Arab neighbors will urge Syria to ease away from its pro-Soviet policies. The most up - to - date official American view on the Syrian crisis was expected to be revealed by Secretary of State John Foster Dulles. He called his first news conference since pro - Communist Syrian militarist leaders began, tightening their hold on Syria’s Soviet-equipped armed forces. American officials doubt the United States alone can do anything to change the Syrian drift to the left. But experts hope that Jordan, Lebanon, Saudi Arabia, Iraq, and possibly Egypt might have some influence with the Syrians* Dispatches Trouble Shooter Dulles dispatched his ace trouble shooter. Deputy Undersecretary of State Loy W. Henderson, to the Middle East last week end.

Wisconsin Voters To Elect Senator Over 800,000 Votes Will Decide Contest By GEORGE ARMOUR United Press Staff Correspondent MILWAUKEE, Wis. (UP)—Party leaders expected a relatively heavy turnout of 800,000 Wisconsin voters today in a special election to name a successor to the late Sen. Joseph R. McCarthy. A heavier vote probably would favor Republican nominee Walter J. Kohler in the race against Democrat William Proxmire since the state normally has more GOP voters. Although the campaign was marked by apathy, party spokesmen said they observed a quickening of interest as the election approached and revised their voter estimates upward. However, official.state estimates still saw a top vote of 600,000 and said the total could be as low as the primary total of 460,000. Three-Time Governor Kohler, 53, a three-time governor, and Proxmire, 41, who lost to Kohler in two gubernatorial races, are the leading candidates in a field of five. Running independently are Howard Boyle, a “McCarthy Republican;” Mrs. Georgia Cozzini and Douglas Wheaton. Auto Plunge Fatal To Hoosier Driver SHELBYVILLE (IF — Bernard Mullen, 34, Shelbyville, was killed early today when his automobile plunged down an embankment on Ind. 44 about four miles west of here. Authorities said Mullen apparently dozed at the wheel. G.O.P. Will Name Neal State Secretary INDIANAPOLIS (UP)—The Indiana Republican State Committee was scheduled to elect Noblesville editor James T. Neal secretary at a luncheon today. Officials close to the committee indicated Neal’s election was primarily a formality and that no one else was mentioned for the post vacated by John Sellers recently at the request of Gover/<r Handley. The committee will also name an assistant secretary who, unlike the secretary, will be employed on a full-time basis. No other business was on the agenda, according to GOP State Chairman Robert Matthews. Sellers was named to the post by the administration of ex-Gov. George N. Craig, long at odds with the Handley forces After he stepped down, he was offered—and accepted—the post of public relations director for the Indiana Conservation Department. Engineers On Beam CHICAGO (UP) — Engineers apparently make good husbands The Illinois Institute of Technology surveyed IIT graduates and discovered there had been no divorces in three of the five classes studied. ,
Civil Rights, Foreign Aid To Be Considered Effort Made Tor Adjournment Within Very Short Time By JAMES BAAR United Press Staff Correspondent WASHINGTON (UP)—Congress today threw a one-two punch at the major bills in the way of adjournment: Civil rights and foreign aid. The House called up the new compromise civil rights bill for passage that was expected by mid-afternoon. The Senate sought a final vote by nightfall on the battered foreign aid appropriations bill — now restored to $3,025,660,000. That was $308,750,000 less than the amount called for by President Eisenhower. At the same time, this was the status of other major bills with a chance for congressional action: FBI Files: The House called up for debate its bill aimed at protecting the sanctity of the FBI files in criminal trials. The Senate Monday night passed another FBI files bill despite the FBI claim that the Senate bill doesn’t go far enough. Pay Raises: The Senate may act before the end of the week on two House-passed bills that would grant pay raises to IVfc million postal and other federal workers. Republicans have predicted a presidential veto on both. Postal Rates: The Senate also possibly may act on a Housepassed administration bill boosting postal rates 500 million dollars a year but chances appeared slim. Immigration: The House was expected to act on a Senatepassed bill that would ease refugee admissions under the WalterMcCarran Immigration Act. The bill does not affect the status of 28,000 Hungarian refugees admitted to the United States as parolees during the Hungarian revolt last fall. Southerners thought they still might have a remaining weapon against the civil rights bill in the House—absenteeism caused by adjournment fever- It opened a possibility for delaying tactics. But House leaders said the problem was licked. out a call for absentees to be present by this afternoon to speed the bill to the Senate. The compromise bill would give the attorney general authority to use injunctions to protect voting rights. But it also would guarantee jury trials to persons charged with criminal contempt when judges seek to impose fines exceeding S3OO or sentences of more than 45 days. The Senate Appropriations Committee Monday restored $500,900,000 of the more than 800 million dollars slashed by the House from the foreign aid bill. However, the administration’s partial victory faced a possibly short life. Senate critics of the foreign aid program planned to try for at least one more slash at the bill as it moved through the Senate. And Rep. Otto E. Passman (D - La.), chairman of the House appropriations subcommittee that originally cut it, predicted the House would never go along with the half-billion increase.

like — and buy — the Edsel. 18 Models Available The new Edsel — 18 models in four series—will round out Ford’s line, making it competitive with other producers from the lowest to the highest priced lines. Ford hopes to sell 200,000 of the new cars in 1958. Ford officials said the Edsel is the first new tar to be introduced to the public through an entirely new dealer organization in about 30 years. A number of the Edsel dealers gave up General Motors, Chrysler, Studebaker — Packard and American Motors dealerships to handle the new Ford car. Edsel, a flashy, powerful car. does not face an easy time of it on the retail scene. But Ford is confident the Edsel will make it, like Mercury did when introduced in 1938. The Edsels are streamlined and colorful, and feature some novel firsts. Grille Distinctive The most distinctive feature of Edsel's external styling is its grille. It consists of a vertical.
oVal air opening in front of the radiator, flanked by horizontal grill work. In the rear it has horizontal tail lights that sweep down on the trunk door. The rear fenders feature a concave scallop. Dual headlights are standard. The four series of Edsels — Ranger, Pacer, Consair and Citation — all have V 8 engines which range up to 350 hosepower. Ellis Reelected Bowling League Head Glen Ellis was recently elected to serve his third consecutive term as president of the Major bowling league, which bowls the late shift on Tuesdays, at Mies Recreation.
