Don’t forget the wheat referendum June 20. A yes vote will keep wheat prices high and mean less work and more money. A no vote will kick the bottom out from under the price. —o—o The community of Monroe has completed a “straw vote” or unofficial election on the power question. It is quite possible that the town board of Monroe will decide the matter this Friday evening. Decatur has a similar problem to face up to. o——o The annual drive for multiple sclerosis funds ends Sunday, Father’s Day. Half a million young people are struck each year by this uncurable disease which damages the nerve lining and affects walking, talking, seeing, and hearing. Funds are urgently needed to search for the cause and cure of this killer disease. —-o Last fall a state-wide survey of children entering school was made to determine how many had been immunized for smallpox, diptheria, tetanus, whooping cough, and polio. In Adams county, less than 70% of the first graders had been immunized against smallpox, diptheria, and polio. This means that an outbreak of any of these three diseases could strike a large seg-., ment of our juvenile population. This would be a tragic thing, especially since the start of an- epi-. demic would be too late to innoculate those who had never received their shots. Northeastern Indiana needs an awareness of the lack of preparedness here for epidemics. While Adams county is above the 70% mark in whooping cough and tetanus, neighboring Allen and Wells county are below in all five major diseases. o o Individuals who repeat the spurious charge that public-owned power projects pay no taxes should understand that the only, tax which TVA does not pay is the Federal income tax. In lieu of that it provides billions of dol-

lars worth of flood protection in 17 states, millions of seedling trees distributed free for reforestatioh in most states, a fertilier demonstration program carried on through ’ county agents in 36 states, and provided power in a huge area 20 years before private power companies dared to go into them. Now that governmentsponsored REMC’s have provided electricity for the marginal years, during which the cost of providing electricity to farms did not balance with the amount of electricity used, the great electric companies would like to buy them up cheap before they repay their debt to the government. The taxpayers will lose if this is allowed to occur. o o Flag day will be celebrated in 1 Decatur this Saturday. Everyone , is encouraged to fly a flag on that day in honor of our country. Patriotic holidays are often excuses anyone for neglecting the ■ very services which the day ' was intended to emphasize. At 7: 30 p.m. Saturday the Elks, Le- ( gion, and VFW will hold special j Flag Day services on the Elks 1 lawn. Judge Robert Harrington, of Van Wert, O.’j will speak. All a citizens of Adams county should consider it their duty to attend this service in honor of the flag of pur country. o o c The ladies of the Decatur gar- 1 den club and the Rose garden t club are certainly to be compli- * mented for the fine show Saturday. Spring weather was such ’ 1 that the roses were at the height! of their glory. New varieties, protected by the latest insecticides and fungicides, added greatly to the attractiveness of the show. By encouraging fine flowers around oup homes, the garden clubs are helping to make Decatur a better place in which to live,. Although the show is sponsored annually by the ladies, who put in much hard ». work, many of the exhibitors are Decatur businessmen who dedicate their spare hours to ing5

Steps Are Planned On Safety In Air Travel
Editor’s Note: This is the third of a series on air safety written for United Press International. Today’s story is by Clarence N. Sayen, president of The air Line Pilots Association which represents 15,000 commercial captains and co-pilots. By CLARENCE N. SAYEN (Written for UPD WASHINGTON (UPD—In 1954, at the annual conference of the International Federation of Air Line Pilots Associations, representatives of practically all of the air line pilots of the free world reached this conclusion: “This federation is agreed the visual means for avoiding other aircraft can no longer be regarded as adequate. ’ Since that plain and simple statement was made, we have had three major collisions: at Grand Canyon, Las Vegas and Brunswick, Md., plus hundreds of ncar-miss reports involving commercial aircraft. Background Explained Yet a major portion of commercial and military avia t i o n throughout the world continues to move under rules and regulations based on the “see and be seen” principle. Why? 1. No satisfactory substitute has been found for it. 2. Our airways system has fallen badly behind the growth in numbers and complexity of traffic as a result of divided responsibilities and inadequate appropriations for many, years. 3. Some aviation groups are unwilling to accept, the restrictions and install the equipment necessary to operate under positive separation procedures which are already or soon will be available. Action Was Delayed It took a long time for alarms by the pilots and other interested groups to arouse to action those responsible under our present system of divided authority. But other immediate actions are necessary. 1 Congress at the earliest pos-

sible moment should vest in a single government agency, with a single head directly responsible to the president and Congress, complete responsibility for the airways system and its operations—including the airspace needs of all users, civil and military. 2. Research should be continued for an airborne anti-collision device that will restore the “see e and be seen” principle to the r cockpit. Unfortunately, results to r date are not encouraging. s 3. The federal government, in j cooperation with the aviation industry, the military and qommu- > nities must provide leadership in r establishing standards for airports . and ground aviation facilities that will intergrate them into the over- : all air traffic System. ; 4. Military /and civil aviation t must properly equip their aircraft I and train their pilots in the use f of equipment to make possible the ■ use of positive separation procedures on the airways — and this includes private pilots. 5. Facilities and procedures i presently available should be in--1 stalled as rapidly as possible to ■ enable our airways system to provide positive separation for all air traffic in those areas where “see and be seen’ is impractical. The Air Line Pilots Association, joined by the Air Transport Association, already have demonstrated the practicality of such an action by voluntarily installing the “golden triangle” plan. This is an area from Chicago to New York to Washington and back to Chicago. It has the highest density air traffic of any area in the world. Yet for 10 months, air line pilots flying in 'this area have insisted on operating under instrument flight rules during all weather when flying above 9,500 feet. The system has proven very successful. The ALpA and the ATA have joined again in proposing that the “golden triangle” procedures be extended to all federal airways.
J JIM c al Charges Politics On Labor Reform Administration Is Accused By Senator WASHINGTON (UPD - Senate Democratic Whip Mike Mansfield accused the administration today of playing “political football” with the Senate's labor reform bill. The Montana lawmaker said Republicans should get behind the moderate measure approved by the Senate Labor Committee “instead of throwing roadblocks in its way." Mansfield suggested that some Republicans were more interested in building up an election issue than in stamping out evils exposed by the Senate Rackets Committee. At the same time, he rebuked Labor Secretary James P. Mitchell, who is attending an international labor meeting in Switzerland, for “pontificating from 3,500 miles away.” Mitchell tossed a match into a politically inflammable situation Monday by criticizing the committee bill and urging adoption of the administration's more stringent proposals. The administration bill would require all unions regardless of size to file public financial reports with the government and make them available to members. It would re-, quire all unions to elect officers by secret ballot or by conventions of delegates chosen by secret ballot. The committee bill would require most unions to file reports on finances and hold democratic election, but it would exempt unions with less than 200 members and less than $25,000 annual gross receipts. Reduction In Coffee Price Is Announced NEW YORK (UPD — Grand Union Co. today announced 2-cent-a-pound reductions which, it said, brought prices on its private-label coffee to their lowest point since 1953. It was reported A&P food stores planned similar reductions Thursday. Indianapolis Woman Killed In Accident INDIANAPOLIS (UP),- Mr:!. Mary Gall, 38, Indianapolis, die 4 in a hospital Tuesday night from injuries sustained earlier in a cartruck: crash on a Marion County road during a heavy rainstorm. Her two children, Kenyon, 9, and Alice, 8, were injured critically. Mrs. Gall sustained fractures of both arms, a broken leg and internal injuries in the accident.

Body Os Woman Is Found In Hotel Room Finding Is Delayed By Killer's Mistake INDIANAPOLIS (UPD—A killer’s mistake in a room number delayed for almost 24 hours the finding of the body of Naomi Houldson, 36, Indianapolis. Indianapolis police received an anonymous telephone call late Monday telling them, “Go to Room 228 in the Kirkwood Hotel. There’s a dead woman there.”

Police rushed to the hotel and found nothing. Late Tuesday, a maid entered Room 238 to clean. She found the nude, strangled body. Hotel employes said the dead women checked into the hotel with a male companion Monday. They said the man left about an hour later. Police said the woman had been arrested at least 33 times in recent years, mostly for drunkeness. Police theorized the phone call was from the killer.
