Legion Membership Lags Behind Quota Members Are Urged To Attain Quota Membership in Post 43 of the American Legion is running about 110 members behind the goal, membership chairman Ambrose Spangler announced Mond'ay night. \ This is the first year in a long time that the fourth district commander has had a chance to march first in the Lincoln day parade to the tomb of the unknown soldier in Arlington, Va. But district four must attain its membership goal to make this possible. The 746 members of Post 43 are urged to get at least one member each fn the next week, as the drive to send the district commander to the front of the parade ends Feb. 2. A list of former members who have not yet paid their 1958 dues is available at the Legion home. The next district meeting of the Legion will be held Thursday evening. February 6 ,at Woodburn. the Rev. O. C. Busse reported. At the last meeting, held at Churubusco. 14 members were initiated with the appropriate ceremony into the Legion, with a full explanation of Legion activities. A motion was made and passed to again pay the bowling team entry fees for the eight Legion teams. A letter thanking the Legion for again backing the. teenage Christmas dance was received from the teen council of the DeI catur Youth and Community Center. The Legion discussed ways of informing every school child in the bounty, before he chooses his high school program, that if he is the son of a veteran of World War I or II he has the right to receive’ sllO a month while attending college. A financial report, resulting from a recent Inventory of the Legion, will be given at the next regular meeting Jan. 27. Charles Chew, Robert G. Smith j and Dee Fryback were appointed I members of the committee to j arrange for the annual birthday j party of the American Legion i here. Otto Snyder was reported in I the Veterans hospital at Fort ! Wayne with a broken hip. Several other members who have t been ill. including Cliff Striker, Arthur Kleinhentz. and Floyd : Cook, were reported much improved. Railroad Leaders Ask Drastic Step Taxes, Regulations Burdening Railroads WASHINGTON (UP'— Leading railroad executives called today for drastic steps to lighten the burden of taxes and regulations i which they said are threatening jto destroy, thenation’s railways. I The railway spokesmen, in a I second day of testimony before j the Sgpate’s Surface Transportation subcommittee, accused Congress of favoring riyal air £nd highway carriers. Monday other witnesses warned that the railway industry is “sick" anti faces bankruptcy _ unless federal and state governments ' change their policies. Albert E. Perlman, president of j the New York Central .. Railroad. ' called today for removal of all ; regulations on pricing and operaj tion of passenger service as one j means of keeping railroads from . dying of “starvation." I He sharply criticized the “shacI kies of cumbersome and conflicting’' regulations which he said keep railroads from making enough money to help themselves out of rrfeunting deficit problems. Il passenger service regulation must be continued, Perlman suggested the federal government handle it through the Interstate i Commerce Commission instead of leaving authority in the hands of 'individual state' commissions. The "New York Central, he said, ("would like to try to operate the ’ railroad passenger service according to the laws of economics" ■ instead of by the “dictates of local • pressures.** - - Harry A. Debutts, president of Southern Railway System, called for repeal of the excise lax oh transportation as well as legislation making for the establishment of competitive rates. ‘ Debutts argued that the wartime excise taxes were- used to destroy all but essential traffic and travel during the war. ‘Certainly. they have succeeded only too well in peacetime in driving traffic from us," he said. Railroad industry spokesmen ; painted a gloomy picture of the irhilibads’ "precarious’' and '“alarming” financial position. Subsidies to rival carriers were mentioned again and again as ' backing the railroads against the j wall.

Summit Talks Are Unlikely Before Fall Senate Committee Planning Study Os Outer Space Control WASHINGTON (UP) - Diplomats said today an East-West foreign ministers meeting to prepare for a “summit" conference is unlikely before April or May at the earliest. This would push a possible heads of state parley back to midsummer or fall — far later than the “within two or three months” demanded by Soviet Premier Nikolai A. Bulganin. Only a new ground swell in Western Europe could possibly force a speed-up <in arranging talks between the Kremlin, President Eisenhower and other free world leaders to east East-West cold war tensions, diplomats said. Congress at the same time was tackling the problems of controlling outer space for peaceful purposes — as advanced by President Eisenhower in his reply Sunday to, Bulganin. Chairman Hubert H. Humphrey *D-Minn.> said his Senate disarmament subcommittee decided to launch a study and call in several witnesses- including presidential disarmament adviser Harold E. Stassen and United Nations Ambassador Henry Cabot Lodge Jr. In his message to Bulganin, the President made a surprise offer to end production and testing of outer space weapons. American officials said it was likely European interest for early summit talks may have been punctured by Soviet efforts to kill the impact abroad of Eisenhower's State of the Union message. Delivery of a second round of “peace” letters on the day of the Presidents speech suggested to many Europeans, officials said, that the Russians are more interested in propaganda than they are in negotiating The President also told Bulganin he would attend a summit conference if proper advance work were done "through diplomatic channels and by our foreign ministers.

Foresees Passage Os Mail Rate Hike May Tie Boost To Postal Pay Increase WASHINGTON (UPI-Pres'ident Eisenhower’s 5-cent stamp proposal today was given a chance » for passage in the Senate—once it is knocked down to 4 cents. ; It also appeared certain any higher postal rates would bp tied to a pay raise for postal workers. r Chairman Olin D. Johnston <DS.C.) of the Senate, post office j Committee said he was opposed to the 5-cent proposal. But he ; acknowledged support for some ’ form,of postal rate bill if Eise’n- ’ hower approves a pending Senate ' 1 bill to hike pay scales for postal > workers retroactively 1 Sen. Frank Carlson <R-Kan.>, ■ ranking GOP member of the Senate post office groups said "I think very definitely Congress this ; year Will pass a postal rate bill > but ..we’ve got to keep in mmcT i that we should pass a rate bill if i we are going to pass a pay bill.' ’ __ ? Sen, A. S Mike Monroney Di Okla ), second-ranking Democrat f on the committee, said "I am against the increase to 5 cents” because "it would add heavycosts to utilities and taxing au- , thorities and others whohavy to . use first class mail in large quan- » tity”..... -. However. Monroney said, he j would support an increase to 4 i, cents, with perhaps raises in , other forms of postage to help , meet the post office deficit. A House - approved bill now' pending in the Senate would raise • first class letters to 4 cents airmail to 7 cents, postcards ‘.to 5, and regular postcards to 3 cents. Proportionate increases ’ also would be made in second 1 and third class mail. Rep. Edward H. Rees' (R-Kan >, ■ tanking GOP m e tri be r of the ■ House Post Office Committee, said he “couldn't guess” what the ' House would do if the Senate approved the nickel stamp for outI of-town first class letters as the I President asked— But Barratt O'Hara <D* . 111. >. who opsl®&’'»ny first class . increase, suggested that the pro- . posed nickel stamp carry a picture of two pirates.
