Weeks Optimistic On U.S. Economy Urges Congress Not To Gum Up Works WASHINGTON UPD — Secretary of Commerce Sinclair Weeks urged Congress today not to ' gum lup the works” of economic recovery by enacting unsound antii recession legislation. He said business statistics show the econo<my is improving and 'that "the outldok is bright for better times later this year.” "The evidence in support of realistic optimism is overwhelming.” he said. ■ "If public confidence continues to grow, if business continues to spur the upturn, and if government continues to keep away from gumming up the works by unsound legislation, the economy should continue to improve.' When he spoke of “govern- ' ment.” Weeks obviously Wa,s referring to the House and Senate because the executive branch does not enact new laws. Weeks made his remarks in a speech for delivery to the 43rd national conference on weights and measures which cop-

vened today. His speech was the most opti-; mistic appraisal of business con-1 ditions to- come from a top ad-, ministration official in a long! time. "For the past several weeks.) business statistics in general have looked better than .at-.any time since the decline started last year,” he said. “The field day of the hand-wrinfeing pessimist is about over." Weeks even found a source of optimism in weekend figures showing a sharp drop in the amount businessmen expect to invest in new plant and equipment this year—3l billion dollars. Some government economists had interpreted this is a doleful indicator. “Admitted, this investment is below the 35 billion dollars spent in 1956 and is 17 per cent below the record outlay of 35 billion dollars in 1957,” he said. • But don t underestimate this significant comparison: Except for these two all-time peak years, this year's total is higher than for any other year.” ST. MARY'S (Continued from Page One) gauge stood at 2.9 inches. In another area of Jefferson township, on the Harley J. Reef farm, 2.6 inches were recorded.
Demand France Halt Algeria Election Plan Demand Issued By Algeria's Public Safety Committee ALGIERS UPD — Algeria's Public Safety Committee demanded today that Gen. Charles de Gaulle call off his plans for Algerian municipal elections within a month. The extra-legal organization also demanded abolishment of all political parties. It notified De Gaulle that the "integration” it has been urging should mean Integration of Algeria and France and not just integration of Algerian Frenchmen and Moslems. All three demands were contained in a resolution approved in advance by Gen. Raoul Salan, De Gaulle’s chief representative here who has full military and civil powers. The resolution was the sharpest challenge to De Gaulle since he returned to Paris last Friday after supposedly putting the committee in its place. Earlier, a group of French army veterans, unappeased by De Gaulle’s installation as strongman premier, called for concerted action to wipe out the last vestiges of the fourth republic. The veterans’ and reserve officers association said it will soon hold a mass meeting to map its campaign. Meanwhile, it was announced that 14 of Algiers' 50 councilmen have resigned in sympathy with Mayor Jacques Chevallier, who quit Monday in protest against the activities of right wing rebels here. Six councilmen announced they will remain on the job, and 30 have not yet been heard from. Well-informed sources predict that more than half of the council’s members will resign this week. It is not immediately certain whether Chevallier will seek a new term in the local elections scheduled next month. If he does, it is considered certain that his efforts to improve housing in Algiers' native quarter will win him large scale Arab support. In Cairo, refugee leaders of the Algerian guerillas were busy today seeking a formula to counter Premier Charles de Gaulle s offer of complete equality to the people of this vast “overseas proy- , ince.” A spokesman for the coordination and execuupn committee of the anti-French FLN organization said it is considering the formation of a guerrilla “government"—an item of business Which the committee itself had previously dismissed as “secondary." The idea of setting up some sort of a government in the guerrilla - held hills of Algeria was first mentioned at' a meeting of Arab nationalists in Tangier early this year. No action has been taken so far on the plan.

West Jackson, the main street of Monroe, has been straightened at the west end. and extended through the Liby addition. This year the extension was oiled, but not paved. The main street of Monroe runs now nearly a mile in length. • Monthly Report By Police Department The Decatur police department’s May report shows that the officers made 17 arrests and investigated 22 accidents during the month. Three persons sustained injuries as a result of the accidents. A report of SSBB was collected from the parking meters, and S4B from $1 traffic meter fines. In the 17 arrests, four were given for improper passing, and four issued for reckless driving to lead the violations. The other arrests are the following; one for running a red signal, two for failure to yield, one disorderly, two public intoxication, two for speeding and one for drunken driving, j • Fall Injuries Fatal To South Bend Child SOUTH BEND, Ind.'

Order Chiropractor Be Granted License High Court Orders State Give License INDIANAPOLIS (UPD — A n Allen Superior Court ruling ordering the Indiana State Medical Board to reverse its order denying a chiropractor’s license to Anthony Bowman, Fort Wayne, was upheld by the Indiana Supreme Court Monday. The board rejected Bowman’s application for a license in 1956 because it said he did not meet requirements established by a 1955 state law. Bowman brought suit and the lower court ordered the board to issue him a license. The high court overruled the . medical board’s appeal because ; the written brief failed to comply with court procedural rules.
