Reaction Favorable For Ike's Answer Top Level Proposal Favorably Received WASHINGTON (UPI) — Senate Republican Leader William F. Knowland < Calif ) Tuesday night praised President Eisenhower’s proposal for a top-level United Nations meeting on the Mideast crisis as “strong and forthright." Congressional reaction to the President’s reply to Soviet Premier Nikita S. Khrushchev was generally favorable. Knowland, a member of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, said he thought the proposal contained necessary safeguards “to preserve the peace, so that nations wouldn't live in fear of external aggression or external subversion.” The California Republican said he thought the United States could deal a “fatal blow” to the independence of Lebanon by withdrawing troops unless armed U. N. forces replaced them. Democrats to give immediate support to the President’s proposal were Sens. Mike Mansfield, Mont., Mike Monroney, Okla., Warren Magnuson, Wash., and J. William Fulbright, Ark. Sen. H. Alexander Smith (RN. J.), second ranking GOP member of the Foreign Relations Committee said the President’s reply was "very much to the point.” Milton Eisenhower Now In Nicaragua MANAGUA, Nicaragua (UPI) — Dr. Milton S.

But the torrential rains ended Japan’s worst drought in 50 years. Trade in a good town — Decatur.

Favor Subsidies To < Mineral Producers House Committee Approves Program WASHINGTON (UPI)-A House interior subcommittee has approved a new program of government subsidies for producers of lead and zinc and other miner?, als. The program could cost as miuph as 460 million dollars over the next five years. The plan is similar to, but more liberal than, one recommended by the administration. The subcommittee Tuesday approved the more liberal provisions of a Senatepassed bill and added a few of its own. Committee aides said the maximum over-all cost could run about 35 million dollars higher than the administration's proposed program. The House bill would: —Launch a five-year program of federal subsidies to supplement market prices producers .receive for lead, zinc, acid-grade fluorspar, tungsten, beryl, columbiumtantalum and chromite. —Provide a one-year program of government stockpiling of 150,000 tons of copper at prices ranging up to 37.3 cents a pound. The Senate voted to increase by %-cent-a-pound the market price at which the administration proposed that the subsidy payments be cut off for lead and zinc. The House subcommittee approved this liberalization and also voted to set at 4 cents the maximum subsidy payment for lead and zinc, instead of 3.9 and 2.9 cents, respectively, as proposed by the administration. The effect would be to permit market prices to drop to lower levels without curtailing total producer income that would be provided for the administration plan. The House subcommittee also voted to provide more liberal subsidies for chromite than recommended by the administration. Motorist Killed In Auto-Truck Crash ROCKVILLE, Ind.

Witnesses Planning International Meet 30 From Decatur To Attend Convention About 30 Jehovah’s Witnesses from the Decatur congregation will attend an international convention in New York city July 27 through August 3. Clyde D? Steele.presldingminister of the Decatur congregation, in announcing plans of the local delegates, said that a limited program of meetings will be held in the Kingdom Hall at Decatur, jflncg most of those in charge of the various features will be attending the Christian assembly. Morris Brodbeck, an assistant minister, will be in charge of the local group during the convention. Steele stated that the local delegates attending the international gathering will benefit greatly not only from the spiritual provisions, but also from Christian association with Witnesses from foreign lands. “The convention,” he went on. “will further the understanding and good will among the various races and nationalities of Jehovah’s Witnesses, and will also demonstrate to the world how the Bible message and Christian living can unite people from all walks of life, regardles of race or other backgrounds that tend to divide the world. Only common interest in the pure worship of the Creator, Jehovah God, can do this,” he said. When questioned about the expected attendance. Watchtower officials in New York pointed to the record attendance of 165.000 at the 1953 international convention h New York's Yankee Stadium At that time several overflow areas provided space for the Witnesses and interested persons. Yankee Stadium has again been secured, but because of the cramped quarters of the previous assembly the Polo Grounds will be used in addition. The program will be presented by the same participants following the first presentation in Yankee Stadium. Most of those from the Decatur congregation will be staying in private homes in New York city and nearby areas. All hotel accommodations will be filled, according, to the Watchtower rooming committee, and the majority of attenders will be placed in homes following a gigantic house-to-house effort to find available accommodations.

Excise Officer To Face Drunk Charge Officer Suspended Pending Hearings INDIANAPOLIS (UPI) — Chief George Rinck of the Indiana State Excise Police confirmed today that an excise officer was suspended after a drunk driving arrest and posed the possibility that the situation may have resulted from drinking as part of his duty. Rinck said be did not mean his comment to be applied specifically to the case of Joe D. Rice, 34, R. R, 2, Huntington, the excise officer arrested on the charge. But Rinck, head of the law force sworn to Uphold the state liquor laws, said that in the course of making investigations it sometimes is necessary for an officer to “take • a drink to enforce the law.” Rinck said that evidence or information sometimes can be obtained only by an officer posing as a patron of a -tavern, or other retail outlet. However, he emphasized that the department does not condone driving afterwards if the drinks are more effective than what the officer had calculated. “Our advice to them is to pull over and get off the road,” he said. Rice, an excise officer stationed at the Lake Manitou post near Rochester, and another officer had made a series of "eight or nine" calls on taverns and other spots in checking on violations of the law against selling intoxicants to minors. The checks were made on Saturday night, July 12. After the tour of duty was completed. Rice got into his own car and started to drive along U. S. 31 in Fulton County. He was arrested by a Fulton County deputy sheriff and slated for an appearance in Fulton Circuit Court at Rochester Monday. At the time of his court appearance, the suspended officer and his attorney asked for more time to prepare the case before a trial is held. Additional time was granted but no date was set. Rinck said Rice is on temporary suspension. He explained “we can t charge an officer until he has been convicted.” Should a conviction result. Rice would be entitled to a hearing before the Indiana Alcoholic Beverage Commission before being discharged from the force. Rinck said reports given to him by the arrested excise officer and the deputy sheriff ‘‘are very contradictory.” Frank Lory To Seek 6th Win Over Yanks DETROIT (UPD — Frank Lary of Detroit will be shooting at a 14-year-old mark tonight when he tries to beat the Yankees for the sixth time this season.

Eddie Sawyer Is Recalled As, Phils' Manager PHILADELPHIA (UPD-Eddie Sawyer, recalled by the Phillies to replace Mayo Smith as manager, said today he was “elated to be back in baseball even though I’m starting out one run behind.” Sawyer, who piloted the Phils in 1950 to their first pennant in 35 years, referred to his first task tonight, the completion of a game suspended last June 22 with the Phillies trailing the San Francisco Giants, 1-0, in the sixth inning. General Manager Roy Harney announced the switch in managers with startling suddenness Tuesday without giving reasons for Smith's dismissal other than that “we thought a change was in order.” The bald, 47-year-old Sawyer said he thought he could “salvage something” from the team which lost nine of its last 12 games but refused to predict how high the Phillies would finish. “A lot of clubs now are getting hot,” he said.
